Dawn of Defiance

[Blackrat]

At Kered's remark Alder realizes he shouted the phrase out loud in his pain. He almost loses his composure but tries to keep a steady face. "Yes, oh, pay no heed to that. I used to live near a place where some jedi held home. Must've catched on. I really should try not to use it, the imperials are not too fond of the word now days." After a short pause he ads with a laugh. "Then again, they are not too fond of us either anymore."

 

[OnlytheStrong]

[sblock=ooc] I'd like to have Kered see if he knows Alder is lying, or at least not telling the whole truth. Perception +8

Don't worry, he won't say anything yet [/sblock]

Kered smiles at Alder. "I'm afraid you are right. We don't seem to be popular with the Imperial Army at the moment. I have been wondering if that Destroyer was for us or not."

 

[Voda Vosa]

"You should. Metal is 743.39876541249086 times more resilient than organic protein meshes. Self is happy to be made of druasteel." EF-8 says, in what may be described as 'a droids idea of irony'

OOC: @ OnlytheStrong-> You can make a perception check but than you should give Blackrat the opportunity to make a countercheck (using the force or not); he's a jedi-in-hiding so he must have some skills at deception that way. @ the others: i'm still waiting for Max and Dalamar for some more RP before i launch into the next encounter...

 

[Dalamar]

"You know, for a bounty hunter, you sure are careless," Duella notes when Alder manages to cover himself in mushroom pollen. "Guess you were one of those that walk up to their prey and and beat it up instead of stalking them."

 

[Voda Vosa]

"Humans and their secrets..."

"Self does not understand"

"Of course you don't, you are a soulless machine EF-8"

"Acknowledged"

 

[Wintergypsy]

The cacophony of noise created by insects and other animals makes it nearly impossible to hear the splash of your footsteps through the Felucian swamp. The open area you walk into resembles a large, shallow pool of water with narrow islands rising out of the water,
looking like stepping stones that are slightly too far apart to jump across.
A faint mist hangs over the swampy ground, drifting over the still pool of water.

Alder feels something stir in the Force, and as you reach the first island, you can see a being rising up from his covered position: Tall and muscular, this bipedal being seems to be a member of the native Felucian species. The long, slender form of a rancor’s jawbone juts down from the Felucian’s hand, and the scout’s body is barely covered by a leafy loincloth. A tangle of tendrils around his face makes it impossible to see his eyes, and the mud and other foliage plastered to his body camouflages him against the backdrop of the
swamp.

Without warning, you can see 4 other Felucians coming forward and there undoubtedly are more of them nearby...

 

[Voda Vosa]

"Destroy them EF-8"

"Affirmative self-friend Karnof"

EF-8 Opens fire with his blaster rifle.

 

[OnlytheStrong]

Kered uses the droids blaster fire to sneak off into the brush.



Perception and stealth (1d20+8=12, 1d20+8=28)

 

[Blackrat]

Alder can't see the creatures but he can sure sense their auras in the force. He draws his pistol but does not yet shoot. "Hold your fire!"

It seems he was too late already though since the shooting had began.

OOC: I had to read the corresponding rules to make sure I didn't miss anything. So because they have total consealment from me but not total cover the DC to sense them is 15. I'll be trying to sense them every round.

Actions this round:
Swift: UtF to Sense Surroundings: Sense Surroundings (1d20+6=20)
