Diesel's Dawn of Defiance

"Never seen her before in my life," Ardon replies to Rain's question. "I would assume, however, that it has a lot to do with the welcoming committee that I got once I arrived on the station.

"Bail Organa,"
the Twi'lek begins to explain, "is a senator in the Galac... apologies, Imperial Senate. It appears that I still haven't gotten quite used to all of these changes."

Ashlin nods at UbD's assessment and snorts at the other girl's ignorance.

"Where've you been for the past few years, stuck in a sarlacc stomach?"
 

"I have never been in anything's stomach...though I did make it as far as a Rancor's mouth when I was a child. Tenenial used the force to calm it and it let me go." the girl said with a shrug, sounding fairly at ease with the thought of being in the mouth of one of the Galaxies most notorious predators.

"As to where I have been, I have been on my home planet, there aren't any ships and I believe the last persons to visit us on purpouse were Jedi a few hundred years ago. One of them stayed and founded our order, and the rest went back to wherever they went. We do not get any news from off world."
 

Shalimar said:
"Will it be willing to just send a doctor? I am not familiar with the ways of people outside of my homeworld, but my experiences suggest they all only seem to look out for themselves. Wont he want to know what he will receive for this help? I helped without wanting any payment, but you did promise payment and you did it because not everyone will just help...is this Switch such a helpful being?"

"We droids don't search the kind of personal achievements the organic female describes. We serve our masters, as this unit do" UbD states, bluntly.
 

"Alderaan Security agent, huh? I think I'd definitely be willing to help you out and help get the Senator's cargo off this station. As great as getting paid would be--and don't get me wrong, I'll take the money--I'd really be interested in this whole thing turning into an audience with the Senator. I'm interested in work, and all my training on Naboo qualifies me for is working as one of the Emperor's guards...not work I'm too interested in. Do you think you could arrange some face-time with me and the senator?
 

Maya, sits up, smiling."I'm glad to hear you'll all help! It shouldn't be too difficult." She turns to Bel. "And I am sure if you complete this errand the Senator would be more than glad to meet with you."

Searching her pockets, she pulls out a credit stick. "This has 200 creds on it. It should be enough to convince Switch to arrange a confidential visit from a doctor.We can get in touch with each other via comm link while I'm laid up. I have an extra pass key to this room, and I can give you directions to Switch. He operates out of deep storage bay V14. "

She stops. "Can someone get a medpack out of my gear? It's in my bag in the bedroom. I'm going to need a long dip in a Bacta tank after all this."

Reclining back, she adds, "I have actually never met Switch in person; just a few conversations over comm link. But my superiors arranged this rendevous-they trust him. To tell the truth, I don't even know what the cargo is I'm supposed to pick up. Security considerations, you know."


[sblock=For UbD-5]
What did the droid loot from the defeated Imperials? All of the items described or just some?[/sblock]
 

Rain crooks a fnger at the credt chip that Maya was holding out and the chip floats toward her. "I will see to it that this Switch sends you a healer." the red-haired girl promises.

"If we are to go convince this Switch to give us the cargo and send you your doctor, we should now what we can about his desires. If a hunter knows what the prey wants, he knows what lures the prey will respond to, yes? Is there a way for us to find out about the droid's dealings on this station?"
 

Bel looks surprised at Rain's blatant use of the Force.

"Hey lady, I don't know what you think you are doing...or where you are from, but doing that kind of hoo-doo is just asking for trouble these days. After the way the Jedi turned on the Empire, anybody who can do that kind of stuff's life hasn't been worth much.

So long as we're on this station working together, do us all a favor and lay low with the sorcery."


Bel turns to Maya.

"This seems like a simple enough plan of pay the droid, get the cargo, and get off the station, true? It's all arranged, we just drop off the payment and pick up the package?"
 

Ashlin purses her lips at the floaty cred chip.

"Hey, that's neat...so you really ARE a Jedi? I thought they were all killed when they went crazy."

"Anyway, yeah, I'll help. Sounds easy enough. Hey, Ubby...go get her medpack willya?" She nods at Maya. "You know, it's funny you should mention. My last job was servicing bacta tanks."

The spritely tech scratches her head at that and reflects, "Didn't go so well...but still. It wasn't MY fault."

(and lo, I change color so I don't have the same one as the GM's narration of Maya. :))
 

Rain looks at Bel with shock, on her home world, being able to use the force was thought of as a good thing, it meant you were important, special. She couldn't fathom why it wouldn't be ok to use the force here.

"Why would anyone want to hurt someone just because they can use the force?" the red haired girl asks in confusion.

"I am not a Jedi, lots of people can use the force, its just that they use the force in different ways. The Jedi are trained to use the force one way, and me and my sisters use it another. I left home to look for Jedi, I wanted to learn their way of using the force and our way, but from what you say...there are no Jedi? Why would there be no jedi? Did something happen, and what do you mean they went crazy?"
