Out of the Frying Pan... (d20 Star Wars)

[maddmic]

Bol considers his next step carefully. He thinks back to what he saw just a split second before. 'Was the holorecorder moving or stationary? Did I see anything beyond it? I hope those guys are ready to get out of here should things get complicated.'


OOC:
Is there a way to determine if the holorecorder was a stationary device, or swept to cover more of a viewing area? If it swept, Bol will try to time his maneuver to coencide with the recorder always pointing away from him obviously. If his brief glimpse is not sufficient for him to have gathered that type of information, he'll risk an extremely quick glance to try to understand the situation a bit better. Also, forgive me if holorecorders are omnidirectional. (If they are, just let me know and I'll revise Bol's actions.) I'm still new to this sneaky sneaky stuff as I normally play the tough guy, or medic. To continue the never ending OOC, would we have been smart enough to calibrate our comlinks together, or is that something we would've had to remember to post?

Considering none of you hadn't mentioned it before and you are still determining that you are actually a group together, more than likely you probably didn't link your comlinks yet, but it wouldn't take too long to figure it out I suppose....

As for the holorecorder, it is stationary, but it has a full view of the stairwell. Think of Ep.IV in the Death Star Prison control room. Each of those lense that Chewbacca shot were holorecorders.

Kesler looks at the wookie, the human and the Cerean, quizically. "So uh, the captain is captured by bounty hunters...er..." He turns to the wookie, "Look, we need a ride off panet, um, I guess now isn't a good time to ask about this..." He glances at the other two, "Well I'm sure you two want to rescue your friend so why don't the rest of us wait in the ship, no sense in us all standing around in the open... I think I could pilot it, so maybe I can help..." he says with a nervous grin, and then mutters under his breath; "Where where is that hair-brained Bothan?"

Femi nods towards the datapad. "Sieblacca, can you use that again to tell us where they took the Captain? I can't understand your language..." While Sieblacca makes use of the datapad to communicate with them, Femi turns to the one proclaiming himself a pilot. "If you can get inside the ship without raising an alarm of some sort AND Sieblacca doesn't have a problem with it, so be it. I can't speak for Tal, but I for one will not leave until Captain Haebes is rescued."

 

[Bobitron]

"I'm with you, Femi," Tal states simply. "Haebes has been a friend to us when we needed it, so I'll do what I can to help him out."

Kesler sighs and looks at the wookie, "Are you able to get into the ship, if it's alright I think it would be best if they don't stand around out here." he says, indicating Nuina and her compatriots. He looks back at the other two. "How do you plan on finding the captain, and rescuing him from the bounty hunter, and avoid the clone troops the whole time?"

Bol curses under his breath. Had it only been him in this situation, it would be very easy to take care of this. Since he needed the captain and the others though, he had to be sure that they were ready to move at a moments notice before he risked being seen by the holocorder. Retracing his steps, Bol headed back to the entrance. he activated the door and stepped back out into the daylight and quickly scanned for the doc and others.

He casually walks to them, trying to keep a low profile and keeping an eye out for any imperial presence. He glides up to them easily and without looking at anybody in particular, talks quietly. "I can shut it down I think. Are we ready to leave? I can't guarantee that I won't be seen, and would prefer if I was off planet by the time they figure out who I am."


OOC:
ok, I'm a little confused on the layout. is the door to the control room that Bol went through on the inside of the docking bay, or is it outside of the bay?

 

[shadowbloodmoon]

Sieblacca shrugs and grunts while pointing past the ship and to the control tower. No sooner he does so, the Bothan known as Bol comes around the ship and proclaims his discovery. So far, no one seems to have taken notice of your presence here, but some of you hear the Imperial version of interrogation not too far away. A few high pitched blaster shots echo throughout the bays.

The Control room door is inside the bay. Think of the bays as a series of interconnected circles and the control room for a cluster of the bays is in the center of four circles. Each bay has a door that leads to this central control room. Bol found one of them.

 

[maddmic]

Bol's head snaps in the direction of the sounds. He then turns back to the others. "Perhaps I should change my previous statement. I hope you all are ready to leave, because we're getting out of here now. Those Imps are too close. Now, where's the good captain?"

 

[Dire Lemming]

Kesler makes a strange sighing/choking noise. "Well this wookie here has explained to us that he was taken by Bounty Hunters, that's plural, and these two say they want to rescue him. And... um... I think the wookie just told us that the captain was taken into the control tower. Is that right?" he says, wincing at the nearby blaster fire. "I really think we should get out of the open right now!" with that he starts to move around behind the ship so that he is less visible from the main door, beckoning the others to follow him.
