Nicolas has been even more quiet than usual on the trip. Retiring to his room almost imediately after the briefing, he had emerged with only his lightsabre and robes, quickly tucking himself away on the transport as they proceeded on the short jaunt up to the 'Glory'.
He emerged at last with his fellow padawans to greet the officers, giving a tight bow of his head at the introduction but otherwise remaining quiet stoic, his eyes looking glazed over, distant as the formalities were discussed, snapping back to reality at last as the mention of a strategy meeting.
It wasn't until the group of them were in motion, making their way down the hallways of the ship that he would slip up next to Jade, his voice low, seemingly absent. It was always this way with him, Though he had the charisma to lead, he found that mundane concerns of order and rank drew him away from the will of the force, instead merely whispering his suggestions in the ear of others. Usually it would be master Sunrider, but in her absence he found Jade's noble heritage served her well in the realm of leadership.
"There is something about this mission that... does not feel right. I've sensed no disturbance but... well trust one's feelings yes? Our task is going to require us to cover a large amount of ground, furthermore time seems to be of the essence.
Might I suggest we split our number initially? Send one group to landing point north, the other to Casino City. If we do not get the information we need from either location we can converge on this... "Summer's Lake" After the fact.
He paused briefly, eyes looking further down the hall, distant for a moment before, satisfied with his choices he continued.
"If I were going to suggest... I would suggest sending Myself, Arro, Elan, and you to Casino City. We'll likely be running into most of the natives there, which means we will need the translator. Furthermore... from the sounds of things it is a little rough and tumble. You are one of our best at negotiation and deception, which will be useful there.
That would leave Serrana, Jerec and Telesa. Between the group of them they should easily be capable of finding out what needs to be known there. He shrugged briefly, seeming to debate over something before adding. "If you were going to interchange any of them, I would suggest Elan and Serrana, Serrana might truthfully be more useful in Casino city, with her... history. Just my suggestion."
With that he dipped back to the end of the line, arms hanging at his side, playing the attentive tourist to the ship, cataloguing the presentation for later reference.
[sblock=Force Use]Nicolas is using a DC 15 force check, taking 10, to attempt to find any other Force Sensitives on the ship. He does this pretty much any time he moves more than 100 Kilometers. ^_^[/sblock]
(OOC: Forgive the brief delay in my posts. I've been running around with personal emergencies the last two days, try to pick it up since I hate holding up pbp =)
