Dawn of Defiance

[Dalamar]

Duella plays the role of a senator up untill the moment the droid reveals its knowledge of their true identities.
When their cover is blown, she relaxes considerably.
"A pleasure to meet you," she says, assuming the role of the group's face for now. "Since you offered, I at least would love some quality wine. But to get to business, we were sent to recover a delivery. But since you know who we are, I assume you already knew that as well."

Perception (1d20+6=9)

 

[Wintergypsy]

You all are served Corellian wine that has rested for over 500 years, so you figure this is an incredibly wealthy crimelord.

"Quite so. I understand you have come to procure the cargo and i indeed know it's location.
I can disclose it to you for the imminently reasonable price of...2.000 credits."

[OOC: According to my calculations, i might be wrong though, the party doesn't have 2.000 creds (deducting EF-8s repairs and all). However you can use all means/checks you deem necessary to try and persuade Switch to hand it over for less...]

 

[Blackrat]

OOC: Heh. If it hadn't been a droid this would have been a lot easier. As it is, my Mind Trick doesn't work. But maybe we can reason with it.

 

[Wintergypsy]

OOC: sure, reasonings is in. With HIM it's a HIM not an 'It', lol. He has some sort of consciousness and doesn't have a master Anyway, reasoning is the way to go

 

[Dragoon]

EF-8 moves up to where the chairs are located, but does not sit down. EF continues to stand and do nothing.

EF sit down and listen to the droid.

Yes selfriend doctor.

As EF starts to take a seat,"self is ready to listen to fellow droid named Switch."

 

[Moon_Goddess]

OOC: Perception +5 (1d20+5=20) Did you include my hidden funds in your calculations.



Koyi looks shocked at the droid. "How do you know who I am? Where do you know me from?"

 

[Blackrat]

Alder looks a little confused when Switch starts talking about money. "We were under the assumption that the shipment was paid in advance. I have a feeling you are trying to swindle us. Unfortunatily I suspect that none of us is wealthy enough for that. But it seems you know much about us, so you probably also know that at least two of us are bounty hunters. Maybe we could agree on somekind of favor to be done later as a payment?"

 

[Wintergypsy]

Koyi notices that there are 4 henchmen in the room, standing on guard but obviously not against the heroes. They seem nervous, as if expecting something bad...

Switch answers to Koyi: "Rest assured, i also know you had a..troubled past, but i'm not in league with those you were running from. As for my information, i have a spy network across the galaxy so i hold a lot of information..and droid's minds aren't as limited as those of living beings...no harm intended"

He turns to Alder and the party: "As you might know, the Alderaanian agent was only instructed to meet me as a contact. However, a deal can be made. If you agree to supply me with information from time to time from wherever your journeys through the galaxy take you...i am willing to part with the cargo for..say...1.000 credits. For 50 credits more, i can tell you the nature of the cargo as well..."

He leans over intently toward the party, actively engaged in the negotiations...

 

[Blackrat]

Alder turns to the others. "Does anyone carry any creds? I'm afraid I'm a little empoverished lately. All I have is 70 C in cash. I do hope that the senator intends to pay this cargo back." He then turns back to Switch. "Being a spy has never been my line of work but I could see that you could be a profitable patron. Personally I don't really care what the cargo is, we were just asked to secure it and transport it onwards and that's sufficient for me."

 

[Moon_Goddess]

"I have some credits but I fail to see why I should turn them over to him."

Koyi turns to Switch "Do you want this cargo shipped or not? I fail to see why you believe we should pay you to give us the location of this cargo that neither belongs to us, or is being transfered to us. You act like we care, at a 1000 creds I fail to see why it would not be in my best interest to simply walk away?"
