Hayabusa's Dawn of Defiance: Chapter I: The Traitor's Gambit

As Sloor and Keyton sneak their way through the corridors, they soon find the bend that leads to V14. At the door of the storage bay stand two Gamorreans. They stand guard before the door, vibroaxes held loosely in their hands. The porcine beings converse in their squealing and grunting language. One lets loose a deep laugh at something.

Keyton continues toward the door with his arms folded within his robes.

We are here to make a deal with Switch. He is expecting our arrival.

He awaits them to grant passage.

Mack permitting, he takes the time to peruse the bay's schematics (and incidentaly transfer his share to one of his own accounts)

Mack will permit this and likewise transfer his share of the money as well if it was appropriate at the time. Otherwise he will do it later.
-----------------------

Mack will follow behind Keyton and Sloor, bringing up the rear, trying to be stealthy. <<will take 10 for a Stealth 12>> He will have his blaster rifle in hand.

Once reaching the doorway area to V14, he will move off to the side as much as possible to provide a clear shot at the Gamorreans if hostilities should break out.

As Keyton enters their view, the two guards stop conversing and stand up straight, holding their vibroaxes against their chest. It seems as if it will take a little persuading to get them to let you in. They make no threatening moves, however.

Nebten · Apr 8, 2010

Is there a "cover charge" to see your master? Very well. I hope this will suffice. After all, we just require passage, not your absence.

Keyton palms each Gamorrean 25 credits and awaits their reaction in a calm manner.

The guards happily grunt their appreciation for the bribe as well as the short discussion that preceded it. They place the butt of their vibroaxes on the ground and part, each one of them taking a different side of the door. They motion you to enter.

The deep storage bay is as run-down as the hallways leading up to it, with entire metal plates missing from the floor and a huge, open exhaust shaft near the back of the room. Large crates litter the area, creating the appearance of a haphazard mess, and the air has a distinct smell of sweat and fumes that makes the entire area unpleasant. Flickering lights provide modest illumination, and a burst pipe along the ceiling leaks blue fluid down one wall.

Near the center of the room is an item that seems very out of place—a large, finely crafted desk made of Japor ivory wood, which means that the desk is both priceless and rare. Sitting peacefully behind the desk is a protocol droid with shiny, ebony coverings that seem to soak up light and offer only the slightest reflection. The droid’s eyes flicker slightly, as though imitating a person blinking rapidly.

Keyton continues on through the door as if he was on his morning constitutional.

Greetings, we seek the one called Switch.

(assuming this is the right droid, I'll continue)

We are here as a liaison of Lady Maya to pick up a large piece of cargo to assist in particular 'rebellion' efforts. It is my understanding that all arrangments have been made and that you were the one from whom we needed to retrieve this cargo.

Mir follows Keyton into the bay and stands to his right as he addresses the droid. She looks about the room looking for anything out of the ordinary. She looks to her left and than to her right before returning to the black plated driod before the group.

Mack will bring up the rear and saunter past the Gamorreans. After Keyton stops and starts talking to the droid, he will turn back to watch the Gamorreans. He will look for any reactions to Keyton’s conversation with the droid.

As Mack turns around to look at the Gamorrean guards as they leave the room, he catches a glimpse of a Gran out of the corner of his eye. He doesn't look hostile, but is likely a guard that would only spring to action if his employer is threatened. You have the feeling that there may be a couple more guards in the room, as well.[/sblock]

"Welcome to my office," Switch greets the group with a Coruscanti accent. He motions for the group to come closer to his desk. An astromech droid wheels down from somewhere else in the bay. "This is my assistant, R5-B8. I understand that you have some business for me."

A Twi'lek stands behind the protocol droid, dressed in fanciful robes. He looks as if he's seen such exchanges hundreds of times before.
