Episode Description
Dr. Stefano Pingus has invented a radical new sparkcraft engine, the Mark X Cork, but nobody wants to buy it. He's been reduced to offering it to Rajan Ankhayat to settle his gambling debts. Rajan wants to gift the engine to his sister Talya, noted autopod racer, at her birthday party at the Ankhayat Autodrome and on the family yacht, The Mumtaz.
Akorosi and Skovlan intelligence is aware that the Ankhayat family want to regain control of their native Iruvia, and that Dr. Pingus' invention is useless for autopod racing but useful for all sorts of other military applications. It's up to the PCs to stop Dr. Pingus from completing the sale of the Mark X Cork engine to Rajan Ankhayat.
But the PCs have their own connections to the Ankhayat family that could jeapordize the mission.
It all comes to a head in... The Pingus Affair.
