And So It Begins.. (Babylon 5 d20 Game)

Geoff just looks around the cockpit a bit and over the pilot himself.

Just wandering around a bit. Not really in the mood for a game of luck like the others. What is going on up here? You have something interesting?

Dobar

Dobar finaly goes out from his room, he looks relaxed now.
Hello, Any food? do you have maybe Gradolik squids for eating?
what about blue Drazi cheese?

He goes to the table
Ohhh. human's card game, can i join? although i'm not familiar with the rules
I suppose the loser is not punched in the face in your games by the winner right?
 

Selise comes to the door and opens it. Notices Alision there Selise looks at her and "I grew used to the looks and stares of others. Since the war between Minbar and Earth at times it can be difficult. I am religious caste and we do not allow this to effect us in the same manner as warrior caste. I found it hard when I first arrived on Babylon 5. Being raised in the temple they do not prepare you for anything like this. I dont want you to be to concerned. Sometimes we cannot help all. So when I saw Dobars anger. I left well enough alone. Knowing there might be some concern about me being here." Selise looks off for a moment. "Dont worry I will be fine." Alison notices her a bit figidity but not really ready to talk. Since its common knowledge that Minbari dont lie.

"No, I would think not. Besides, I throw a terrible punch."

Varn grins.
 

Geoff notices as the pilot gets a little fidgety when asked about what was going on. It takes little for Rasheed to compose himself however. "Nothing, nothing. Just a little something from home." Quickly checking over his instruments, he reports, "We should be at our destination in a couple of days. There are no more stops between here and the next jumpgate. Just an hour's flight after we enter the system."

Alison nods as Selise speaks. "I see, well I just wanted to make sure you were alright. You're the one they wanted to hold this group together, I can't have you losing it on me. I'll leave you alone though." With that, Alison makes her way back down the corridor to the galley, where our rescuers are playing Texas Hold'em.

After a few rounds of the game, Becky joins in as well. Things are going fine for a while, until it is noticed that Varn seems to be winning more than his share of games, especially since this is a Human game. Dave speaks up eventually. "I don't know about you guys, but I hope this isn't a simple rescue mission. I could use a little practice roughing up some people, know what I mean?" He pats Dobar on the shoulder. "Sure would beat hanging out in this bucket all the time. I bet there is more to this operation too. I even..." Dave McCullough stops his rant with a look from Alison. Giving her an 'I'm sorry' look, her turns back to playing cards with the group.

If no one objects or has anything specific they would like to do or ask of Alison, Dave, or Rasheed, I am going to fast forward to the jump into the Levana system. I'll edit this post if that is the case.

The days pass by uneventfully. Card playing being what it is, you feel you have played every game that exists and you were sure some were just made up to pass the boredom. You also know just about everything you want to know about your companions' collectibe history. Rasheed has always been a pilot, Dave's a GROPOS gone private and Alison is an ex-diplomatic attache. The others you know just about as well. The intercom chimes and Rasheed comes on. "We're ready to jump in." Alison asks each of you to join her in your makeshift briefing room, the galley.

"In approximately an hour, we will be arriving at Levana Four Beta. It is a desert world with no indiginous sentient species that we are aware of. However, we are in League space, so it is possible they may have an outpost down here. Note that I said possible. The Descari have a strong presence in the system, but for the most part, have left this one alone. They maintain a presence here on a small moon orbiting Levana Five, as a matter of fact, those guns are probably trained on this ship right now. Since we are not Raiders or anything, they will not fire. Hopefully."

"Now this planet does have an atmosphere, but not enough to sustain life, so we will be needing to wear masks. There are a few in storage on board that I will hand out as we exit the ship. Also, just in case, there are a few weapons on board for self defense. If you brought your own, that's fine too. I'm hoping that we will not need them, but I'd rather have one and not need it than the other way around. We will be landing just outside the scientists base camp. I suggest you do whatever you need to do to prepare, we will be landing shortly. Any questions?"

"One question. Next time we play cards, will we actually use real money?"

Varn lingers for afew moments and then trundles off to his quarters to pack up.
 

Dave smiles at Varn's question. "If you're so eager to lose the reward money for this mission, I'll play you when we return to Babylon 5, deal? As for the rest of you, if you need weapons or some spare caps, follow me." With that, Dave McCullough rises out of his seat and clanks his way down the main corridor of the ship.

Alison nods after him. "Well, if there's nothing else then?" She waits for everyone to leave before doing so herself.
