Elan Xandar Renn, human male jedi 6, hp 68/68 (no conditions)

Casino City

Elan Xandar Renn stepped out of the Star Jewel's exit ramp, uncomfortable in his civilian clothes.

Luckily, he had found a crewman aboard the Republic cruiser who matched his size. He had procured a set of old, worn clothes. Brown pants, black shirt, black boots, and a tan jacket in an inside pocket of which he had concealed his lightsaber.

"And so, it begins," Elan said, in a soft voice, almost to himself.

Sensing Jade's unease, Elan too uses the Force to study his surroundings.

OOC: [sblock] Elan takes 10 on Use the Force (ignores cover and concealment, including total cover) and takes 20 on perception (this takes 2 minutes) for a total of 30 on Perception. That should sense all medium size creatures up to 50 squares radius. That would be 75 meter radius, if my math is right [/sblock]

ooc: [sblock] Shall 20 credits be a reasonable price to pay for the old clothes Elan bought?[/sblock]

Jade Shesh [Noble 4/Jedi 2] 42/42HP

Casino City

After she and Elan finish their inspection of the area, Jade focuses on her sense of malevolent waiting in the force, on its dark nature. "Its fairly eident that our suspicion of a hidden hand at play was correct. I'm sensing a dark sider...waiting somewhere on planet. Maybe a Sith. This plan and its reprucussions are certainly bold enough for one. Jarec, can you use your commlink to warn the others while we head into town? The security system is set, and its even more important now that we proceed with haste." Jade Asks, indicating that the trio should head into town.

As she walks, Jad looks into the force to try and pin down the location of the sense of evil and darkness.

Use The Force 13+16= 29 to detect force users in 100 kilometers

 

[drothgery]

Force Perception (1d20+12=24) (It looks like Sense Deception is a use of Perception that Force Perception applies to)

Slight mollified, Serrana puts her lightsaber back in its holster.

"We will want to look at some of your records. I assume you have recovered surveillance recordings of the sites that have been attacked? You have workstations we can use, correct?" Serrana said, careful not to drop back into outer rim slang, and, moreover, to speak with some authority. She wasn't that much younger than her fellow Padawans, and there were reasons why she had spoken first.

After she and Elan finish their inspection of the area, Jade focuses on her sense of malevolent waiting in the force, on its dark nature. "Its fairly eident that our suspicion of a hidden hand at play was correct. I'm sensing a dark sider...waiting somewhere on planet. Maybe a Sith.

The security system is set, and its even more important now that we proceed with haste." Jade Asks, indicating that the trio should head into town.

"Perhaps you are right, Jade," Elan replied. "Let us proceed with caution, then."

OOC: [sblock] Elan rolls a 2+15=17 on Use the Force skill to sense Force users up to 100 km away. This may be opposed by Use the Force to conceal their presence. [/sblock]

R0-T4, Soldier 6

R0-T4 follows up to Seranna's statement about surveillance tapes.

"I believe we can be of great service to you. Any footage of the actual attack would be expecially useful, as it could be analyzed for strategy making purposes."

 

[Brother Allard]

Jarec, can you use your commlink to warn the others while we head into town?

Jarec frowns, extending his own senses [Use the force: 1d20+13 -> [8,13] = (21)].

He nods at Jade's suggestion and pulls the comlink from his belt. "Arro, are you there? Jade is sensing a malevolent presence in the force - a darksider, possibly Sith. Watch your backs."

Uneasy, he scans their surrounds constantly, looking for anything out of place or anyone paying them too much attention. [Perception: 1d20+5 -> [8,5] = (13).

OCC [sblock]Yes, you were able to get some old civilian cloths from a crewman onboard the Glory[/sblock]

OCC note the Casino City group is about two hours ahead of the Republic city group, so yes you can contact ARRO and he replies an affirmative, message reseaved but not for a bit of time here…

[sblock]Hidden Roll(s)? and Hidden Roll(s) no need for the players to look right now, but to keep me honest [/sblock]

After all the Jedi have search the landing docking area and discovered nothing they move into the walkways that lead through the port and into the city proper. As they do, Elan, Jade and Jarec all sense a Force user somewhere in the city. They all feel that this ‘person’ is maybe a kilometer away and they have never meet this individual. Jade and Elan ‘feel’ that this person might well be tainted by the dark side of the Force. But Jade does not feel this is the reason for her sense of ‘cold waiting’ that she got when she first exited the Star Jewel, it is something else, something… below them perhaps?

At Landing Port North...

"We will, of course, protect any innocent beings and bring any criminals who have harmed innocents to justice," Talesa said, turning her head away from the representatives.

"But," she then added, turning her head back, and deepening her frown. She did not particularly like these men, and it showed. "We are not hired mercenaries, thugs or goons. We will not engage in a military conflict in the mountains against the natives for you. We intend to find a peaceful solution to this conflict."

Force Perception (1d20+12=24) (It looks like Sense Deception is a use of Perception that Force Perception applies to)

Slight mollified, Serrana puts her lightsaber back in its holster.

"We will want to look at some of your records. I assume you have recovered surveillance recordings of the sites that have been attacked? You have workstations we can use, correct?"

"I believe we can be of great service to you. Any footage of the actual attack would be especially useful, as it could be analyzed for strategy making purposes."

OCC –Serrana notes that the two Zabraks are a very uncomfortable with the Human representatives and his manor. As the group is speaking they seem to be relaxing some… while the Czerka starting acting a bit more annoyed and nervous.]

The Human representatives looks at the two Jedi and then the droid and nods his head, saying “Yes of course, we want only peace to be restored to this planet so that the important business we are doing here can continue. I certainly don’t want any innocents hurt…”

Pointing at the two Zabraks behind him he says “My two aids, Sub-Administrator Khola and Assistant Sub-Administrator Yhathan will escort you to our Substation where you can access all relavent recorders and surveillance notes. We don’t have a great deal of satellite coverage of the planet as it was never needed before, but what we have you are certainly welcome to…”

The Czerka Twi’lek representative then clears his throat and adds “If I might be so bold, I would wish to welcome the Jedi Order to Histogoth Prime and extend our warmest welcome to each of you. I am Jnoth Reelja, Chief of Operation here. You will have full access to our recorders as well and any assistance that you might require do not hesitate to call upon us.”

Looking at the airspeeder he tilts his head slightly and adds “But might I inquire as to where your ship was off to? There are dangerous places on the planet and if anything… bad… should befall them I want to be sure that we would know where to look”

 

[Shalimar]

"I think we would do well to find the dark sider, I don't have the sense that the one I can sense is the cause of my of unease, but the source of that is close..." Looking warily in the direction of the force user, she gestures towards Jarec's comm-link and the cylinder floats to her hand. Sending a message to the Star Jewel that could be retreived by the other apprentices via their own commlinks. "This is Jade, we have located the darksider within a kilometer of our position, we are proceeding with caution, but we can't let the dark sider get away if he is a part of the crisis. Serana if you don't here from us in a day or so, use the ships autopilot to recall her to you."

"Lets go, and be ready for anything. If he is any good he'll have already sensed us." The noble says moving toward her sense of the dark sider's location. As she moves she uses the force to get a reading on the situation, not the surroundings, but allowing the ebb and flow of the force to give her an impression of her plan.

(OOC: Search your feelings to tell if her plan will go poorly, in a more immediate way (ie are they walking into an impossible to win situation. Taking 10, check result 26. )

 

[drothgery]

The Human representatives looks at the two Jedi

OOC Nitpick: I think there are three Jedi here -- Serrana, Nicholas, and Talesa.

The Czerka Twi’lek representative then clears his throat and adds “If I might be so bold, I would wish to welcome the Jedi Order to Histogoth Prime and extend our warmest welcome to each of you. I am Jnoth Reelja, Chief of Operation here. You will have full access to our recorders as well and any assistance that you might require do not hesitate to call upon us.”

Looking at the airspeeder he tilts his head slightly and adds “But might I inquire as to where your ship was off to? There are dangerous places on the planet and if anything… bad… should befall them I want to be sure that we would know where to look”

"Even with the Force at her side, a Jedi can only be in one place at a time." Serrana said. "If our ship runs into difficulties, be assured that we can find them."

OOC: Serrana wanted access to a workstation for two reasons. The first is so that Arro can run some tactical analysis on the attacks -- she's not an expert, but she knows what happens to barbarians with spears or even arquebuses run into even halfway competent defenders with modern weapons; certain events ~4,000 years from now on Endor nonwithstanding, the barbarians get slaughtered. The other, of course, is so that she and Nicholas can apply a bit of their computer skills to work...
