"Unfortunately no, I left my uniform back home. This was supposed to be a vacation," Duella answers. "Doesn't mean we can't try sweettalking them."

EF-8 stops short of the Gamorreans. Scans them and stops...red eyes watching everybody, his steel hand ready to ready his DC-15a. EF then to no one in particular, "Snorting flesh creatures...friend or foe...termination orders...query."

Hold for now EF...they are not Imperials, just brutish hired muscle.

Affirmative selfreind Doctor.

"Hold"
 

Kered marches directly up to Gamorreans, motioning for Duella to follow closely and the others a little bit farther behind. Open this doorway for the Senator. Kered pauses while they expectedly stare at him then adds, I am the personal assistant to Senator Yinamo from the Outer Rim. Open this door or she shall see to it that you are severly punished, more so than even your sick kind can understand. Now! Kered face flushes red, a light coming to his eyes as he speaks.

[OOC: heheh, nicely done...]

The guards shrug as they lead you all inside the bay.

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.
Appart from the crates, the room appears quite empty.

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.

[I need a perception check for each of you, as you introduce yourselves or something ;)]
 

Surussk takes a quick look at the droid and then keeps to the side where he can see the Gamorreans, just in case they decide to get angry. You never can tell with Gamorreans what might set them off. He was impressed how Kered talked the group into the bay, so he's content to let him continue to do the talking.

Kered stands directly in front of the droid, Droid, what is your purpose here? I am Ryyk, servant of Senator Yinamo. he motions towards Duella. She has come to personally see what is going on in this place and has be given access to every area of this station. Explain droid, why this area is guarded as it is.

The droid rises up and answers:

"You have done well getting past my guards, Kered Rinos, and i am grateful you did not damage them. It's so hard to find decent replacements these days. But enough with your deception, i know your identity, as well as that of EF-8, Surussk, Duella, Koyi and Alder..."

"But where are my manners. My name is Switch and you could say i'm in the information gathering and...procurement business. This here's my companion R5-B8." He motions at a buzzy R5 droid at the side of his desk, which gives a hello as well: "beep-uzz-tweet".

You all can see a Twi'lek standing a bit further in the distance, and no doubt there'd be numerous guards spread out in cover throughout the room.

"But do be seated." At Switch's request, two thugs deliver six finely crafted wooden chairs for you all. "First, can i offer you something to drink? I have all kinds of liquors and beverages from all over the universe. Nothings as bad as doing business on an empty stomach..."

Once you all are comfortable, Switch asks the question: "My services are available for anyone who can pay, so i implore you, tell me why you have come..."

All of you can't help but be astonished by such a noble, refined droid crime-lord.
With such a personality and a Coruscanti accent, Switch could fit in among Brentaal’s nobility if he were not a droid. When he speaks, he does so cheerfully and lightly, as though his power and prestige leaves him without a care in the world. It is unclear how a protocol droid managed to convince a number of living beings that he should be their leader, but the fact that they follow Switch loyally is a testament to his persuasive skills and his acumen as a crime lord.


[OOC: Okay, you can talk all you want with Switch and make any deals you see fit. Switch can get the party anything they need, but in the end they'll have to ask for the Cargo of course, and most evidently pay for it. In dealing with Switch all checks you see fit can be used. I'd like to point out as well that none of the creatures (droid or not) present in the room are hostile towards the players. It is purely business...]
 

Alder will content to let the others do the talking. He is not too bad with words himself but can see that clearly some of the others are more suited for such conversation.

OOC: Perception (1d20+7=27) (natural 20)

BTW. Did Maya give us the credits we're supposed to pay the cargo with?
 

"Forgive my deception, I did not wish a conflict and had to know if you knew of us before I ventured any information. I shall allow a more gracious tongue than mine tell you of what we desire. Kered bows politely at the droid, somewhat astonished at how refined he is. Kered sits in his quite comfortable chair and politely waits for someone else to speak.


ooc: Kered is not very good at gathering information, just deceiving people. It would be much better if someone else spoke now lol. :)
