Well your taking one for the team has already netted us some extra info. Good job. *thumbs up*

When it comes to stupid plans I am king.
Meriss
Agreed. biggrin.gif
ludomastro
Things are thawing here a bit. What can I do to help smooth things along?
fistandantilus4.0
uhhh... dunno maybe some direction? I'm jsut chilling until Rand wakes up right? How long does that take against how long whatever Sinn and Meriss are doing? Should I jsut wait until they catch up in the time line? What are they doing? SinN is posting from the library again for the time being because of some issues with his laptop, so I wouldn't suggest waiting on his posts.
ludomastro
Ok, didn't know that about SinN. We'll fast forward until Rand wakes up. SinN & Meriss, go ahead and post and we'll catch up the timelines.
Ophis
Hooray I'm awake, and should be around consistantly for a while...
SinN
Hey All. Sorry for the slow posts. As fisty said, my laptop has been sent off for repair and I should be getting it back soon. So post may be slow, but Ill do my best to keep up.
ludomastro
What GM-type assistance is required?
ludomastro
Doctor, how's the patient?
fistandantilus4.0
sorry, I was having internet issues. Should we perhaps do a roll call? I see I was gone for five days, and only Meriss got a post up. What's up guys?
ludomastro
Yes, a roll call is in order.
ludomastro
Feel free to continue your conversation, I'm just adding some local flavor.
ludomastro
FYI:

I'm heading out on a business trip tomorrow and I'm not sure what level of internet access I will have. I should be back on Wednesday.
SinN
Hey I got my laptop back, but my internet appears to be down for no apparent reason. Apparently its going to take till tuesday to get a tech out here to "look" at it. So long story short, my posts will become more frequent after then.
ludomastro
I'm back. Let me know what you need.
SinN
Hey alex, good to have you back. Been tryin to post more but everyone i think is busy with real life. Ive edited my post like twice, haha.
fistandantilus4.0
Well I need ot know wtf happened to Merris and Ophis. I don't think SinN and I are going to get far on our own. At his point though, I think we're just gonna run with it. See what we can get done. Any objections?
Ophis
Hi, still here. Just haven't spotted anything Rand needs to say.
fistandantilus4.0
Haza!

Wow, Rand being quiet, there's a change. biggrin.gif We need to keep this thing moving man. I think we need to get a bit more proactive. I think some OOC planning might help us move along too.

Basic stuff we need to cover:
Lodging - are we sleeping on the ship?
Weapons - are we all armed? are we all armed discreetly?
Contributions - what's each person's skills? I'm trying to build Daylin around the consouler, but he can certainly handle himself in a fight. /OphisRand's our tech boy nad swoop jocker IIRC. ANd Jeryk/SinN is more or less a Face type. Right?

Plans - how are we going to get to where we need to go? We're probably going to need some sort of passkeys or something. We need to know how accessible (or inaccessible) the start destroyer dock is, so we need to scout it out, see what sort of security we're up against. Also need to work on finding ways to the Star Destroyer in question. Do we even know the ship's name yet?

Cover - maye do some cover trading, establish our selves as honest worker/trader types
Ophis
Rand is still coping with his pain. This being Star Wars he'll be fine once we leave the bar.

Rand is vehicles and combat. Mostly combat. Yes he's armed, and you haven't spotted it so it must be discreet. Bigger guns may be good if we need to break the place up.
Meriss
Jannel is supposed to be planning and sniper combat. The Idea was to create a completly amoral SOB and let you guys try to figure out why he is the way he is. biggrin.gif
SinN
Thats all great and such, but...is anyone gonna post any time at all? sarcastic.gif
Meriss
Yup. biggrin.gif
fistandantilus4.0
Daylin might want more paitence, but I for one am loving seeing things moing a bit more.
ludomastro
And away we go. Working on IC posts.
ludomastro
fist and SinN - roll me a search check.
fistandantilus4.0
search 4D+1 , taking my time to add 1d - 5d+1 = 14
ludomastro
Neither of you find anything on the ship.
SinN
Well damn. rotate.gif Ill just post something to keep the game goin. I suggest y'all lead by my fine example. grinbig.gif

Not even Rand's porn collection? Man, I know that kid's got somethin on there! We keep looking until we find it! grinbig.gif
ludomastro
And all this time I thought that you were looking for bugs...
ludomastro
fist and SinN:

Let me have a Streetwise (Knowledge) or Investigation (Perception) check.

-----

Meriss

Let me have a Language (Knowledge) check. Does Jannel happen to speak Gamorrean?
Meriss
Yer the Boss.

3d6=9

Funnily enough Jannel doesn't speak any other languages. embarrassed.gif Now why did I do that?
ludomastro
9 + 5 for simple concepts and a little foreknowledge. = 14

IC post coming up.
fistandantilus4.0
OK so we're leaving the ship, wandering the bazaar a little, then heading to the docks boss man. Anything worth looking at ?
ludomastro
IC post coming up.
SinN
I dont have either skill, do i roll just perception or knowledge?
ludomastro
Yes. The beauty (or bane - depends on your point of view) is that you automatically default (without penalty) to your base attribute if you don't have a specific skill.
SinN
Well, Ill roll for the knowledge since i get more dice.

KNOW 3D+2= 4,3,3,5,2= 17
ludomastro
Ok, you rolled 4D+2. I give you the benefit of the doubt and take one of the threes. Your new total is:

KNOW 3D+2 = 4, 3, 5, 2 = 14.

One IC post coming up.
SinN
Oops. sorry about that spin.gif

Also, this game Daylin and Jeryk are watching and waiting to join, how is is played, just so I know for the game.
ludomastro
Do you remember when R2 and Chewie are playing what looks like 3D chess with monsters for pieces? That's Dejarik. How is it played? You will have to find a bigger Star Wars fan than I for that answer. Assume it is like chess for all intents and purposes.

I'll work on the IC post in a bit. I'm on my way out the door.
SinN
Gotcha. Thanks boss. grinbig.gif
SinN
Ive got a few minutes, my girlfriend is making dinner and doesnt allow me in the kitchen ever since I set the sink on fire. Wasnt a big fire, but it was still pretty. grinbig.gif Anyway, I decided to leave a description of Jeryk for y'alls readin pleasure.

Jeryk is about 5'9, keeps in good shape, about 170 lbs. He has meduim length dark hair that he normally wears down, instead of a pony tail. He keeps his head up and shoulders straight when he walks. Carries himself with confidence, even if he doesnt have any.

Jeryk is eager to please, but knows when theres a lost cause. He looks to help those around him, and isnt above receiving it either. He was very young when the rebellion started and grew up on the run. So he's better at hiding and talking then he is at fighting. He was taken from his home by his master Je'Lynn Kendar, and for the next few years was trained strictly, but not often. He knows the Jedi way, and understands it, but yearns to learn more, and grow stronger. He beleives that one day the Jedi will rise again, and wants to be part of it.

He often will play as if he is naive to throw everyone off. Though he is part of the rebellion, he believes enemies are on both sides and feels he needs to be ready to run or fight at any time. If everyone believes you're stupid, no one will expect you to outsmart them. One thing he will always say about his master is, "He never had advice, just alot of stories. He was like a father, but didnt spend enough time teaching." Jeryk hates that he couldnt have a normal child hood. And doesnt enjoy talking about spending it hiding. But understands that there was no other way for him to live.

He isnt looking for glory, He knows that isnt the Jedi way. He just wants peace and balance.
ludomastro
fist and SinN:

I've put up a quick IC post for you. Help me get moving in a direction.
ludomastro
SinN:

To whom is Jeryk speaking? The old man, the guard, some random guy in the crowd or the crowd in general?
Meriss
@Alex: how far can I push the constable?
SinN
I thought the old man was running the game. But I guess Ill just be talking to the crowd in genarall.
ludomastro
@ Meriss

You are welcome to push as far as you want. I just ask that you give me a Con or Persuasion roll (both are based on Perception) to influence him. Con indicates that you are trying to trick him. Persuasion indicates that you are trying to get him to go along with you. The base difficulty is Hard (16 - 20) with nasty modifiers if you are seeking illegal information. There are plenty of good modifiers if you are trying to get him to go along with an action that he would do normally.

-----

@ SinN

The old man is running the game so that's fine. I'll work up the IC post.
