[IC] SWS/DnD5, Star Wars the Old Republic – A Gathering Darkness

It may be easier to simply take the cargo and deliver it to proper authorities on another planet, Jor whispered to Kacela through their mind link. I understand not wanting to be on the wrong side of a crime lord's ire, but you are trying to con people who make a career out of conning others. They rarely fall for it themselves.

Jihahna comes back out when called. After being asked for options from Kacela, she sighs in relief, then turns to Cal.

"Hey Cal, how are you with chemistry? Do you think you could maybe make the majority of it inert? We empty the case, take a small amount away, chemically spoil the majority of it, refill the case and coat the top with the small portion that isn't inert."

She flicks her fringe from her eyes with a coy smile. "If it works, they won't find out until it's delivered to Axxila! If they deliver it successfully, Gotan may even think it was a deliberate tactic from Jericho to save money"

Her smile broadens at imagining the damage such a ploy could cause to both sides...

Garnell stands then and bowing to Kacela says "I look forward to coming to a peaceful and productive end of our situation and hope that your life is full of peace and comfort Mistress Jedi. Here is my comlink information. Please contact me when you are ready for the cargo transfer. I bid all of you good day then." and he heads off the ship.

GM: The group can all regather if they want, or those outside can remain there, etc.
 

(Still diving, the virtual gand slams into a piece of solidified darkness, bouncing off, loosing track of the data she sought to catch!

Password block? Encryption maybe?
Gauging the shape-function of something from an impact is no easy task.
Shaking himself back to full awareness, he stops his flat spin outwards and gazes out at twittering constellations of faraway holos, slightly dizzy and trying to pinpoint the way she just came, the direction of what blocked him.

Decision made, it starts slowly advancing that way, 'hand' out, hoping she guessed right and can discover the nature of what blocks her from her objective by... touch?)


OOC: Same objectives as before: Standing in the dark: 1D20+5 = [14]+5 = 19. Spending an FP to make it 20+, please.
 

Before Garnell left, this Gand was able to pull a couple of last bits of information from his datapad about the agents 'recent procurement'. There are a number but s/he was only able to access three of the most recent ones (including their location and security pad access codes to them), all stored on the world of Axxila. But even on his own personal datapad what each of them contains is 'coded' as "Exotic Wildlife", "Art Acquisition" and "Imported Spices & Natural Herbs".
 

The gand - whose insectile head has been slowly tracking an invisible point on the wall to the right and then the left, towards the Outlaw Gambit's down-ramp - suddenly starts into awareness! She then promptly falls backwards on her little alien keister, blinded by the sudden light.

Sudden bursts of droning, which the female voice (ironically) translates as: "This one is wordless."

Jihahna's eyes open in surprise at the Gands almost drunken behaviour. She rushes over to help him/her up. She chuckles as she assists.

"You haven't been getting into your emergency stash too early today, have you Gand?"

guttural mumble drone clacketty "This one's supplies are intact," un-replies the gand, gratefully accepting the help up.

He pauses, looking upwards at the dark-haired ex-merc, as if considering... The pause becomes uncomfortably long......... And then: guttural clack jumble drone clicketty whirr hum-drone "This humble one has been contaminated by the Infinite Pyramid, Jihahna Darut."

A hand up, to rub the surface of her right eye in a surprisingly shy, uncertain-looking gesture.
 

Jihahna raises an eyebrow in curiosity at the Gand's strange statement... She looks about the ship almost as if the context to this statement will jump out of her before a reply...

"Ummm, okay? So I'm guessing you're referring to something intangible, right? Cal would have treated you for anything obvious by now...."

She scratches her head in concern as she looks the Gand over...

"Nope, you seem ok to me? What's on your mind? Feeling blue?"

guttural click hum mumble clacketty “There are visions of machines on this one’s mind,” agrees the gand with a pleased nod: Jihahna Darut understands. guttural clack whirr clicketty jumble click “Knowledge of things this humble one has no way of knowing?

guttural warble drone “This one has been changed." hum-drone "Contaminated.



On the subject of the Spice, guttural mumble slur, clicketty jumble click "This one believes the spice is a short term challenge?" mumble-jumble drone clack slurr clicketty jumble low-hum whirr "If one objects to Jericho Melstrum and Gotan the Hutt on the whole, then one should object to their plans on Axxila." clacketty "Specifically."

A tilt of her bulbous head to par it down a little, but that's a surprisingly strong statement from the gand -- who'se usually a bit more soft-spoken.
