Star Wars Episode 2.1q: The Fall of Eraydia (RIP)

Tilon hands off the dispenser/handle/anchor...giving instructions to "Hold it sort of steady"...before hopping /onto/ the cable and running up it to the STAP....


<OOC: Enhanced Dex, Feat that does balance stuff, out of combat so take..20? 10? Anyway...>


<Addition: My mental picture had the STAP sort of over the berm and not the grass now....not right? Not going to run up a cable over evil grass.>>

"I'm not normally one to shy away from dangerous risks," Denny warns the Jedi, "But you do realize the penalty of failure for your proposed endeavor is to fall into the midst of the mincing vegetation.

"Besides which, I don't think I'm heavy or strong enough to hold the line taught while you walk it. Give it another tug or two, and I can hop aboard."
 

Hiru huddles with the two experienced riders and asks if they'll need any equipment, such as rope, cable, saddle facsimile, whatever. If so, he'll go rummage through the ship to find it.
 

Pog seems to be a bit confused as nobody has really answered him. Then he realizes that the grass is way to loud for anybody to hear him. Hearing Shom, he seems to be even more confused looking around at everybody doing their own thing. Not wanting to ride a live animal, he heads over to the two who seem to be trying to pull in one of the STAPS. He yells in his com link to the others. "I may be able to fix the other one, although I won't know unless we can get to it and tow it in. I don't much care for trying to ride one of those animal things, but I guess I'll do whatever it takes to get myself out of this mess."

In fact, the STAP is still 5m of evil grass away, and if you quit pulling, it's gonna stay there until you win another opposed Strength check. At the end of this round, assuming you pull, the STAP will be where you can possibly leap onto it, though if you miss, you will fall into the evil grass. Otherwise, at the end of next round, it will levitate over the berm (since it's not been shut off yet) and down to the level below the berm, where it will be over dirt and you can climb onto it without penalty.

Sorry if that wasn't clear.

Oh, and Tilon has 5m of cable left in his dispenser if he clips off the current cable, not nearly enough to get the other STAP, which is currently 50m away through the bladegrass (which means, it is as close to the GATs and droids as it is to you). Perhaps, however, you might find a use for at least one STAP in full working order, including a pair of fire-linked, medium...

Ka Jor goes to help pull the STAP into the clearing, if there is any cable left to grab onto.

When it is in the clearing, he reaches for a small pill in his med kit, thinking out loud, "This looks to be about the right dosage."

He puts his hand on Tilon's shoulder, "My master always said to not be so hasty to call upon the Force. We are still novices, and we can wear ourselves out. You may wish to be a bit more careful in the future.

"Take this. It is totally organic, called 'kawe-da' on Cerea. It will give you a little bit of that energy back. Kawe-da loses potency if some is already in your system though, so I will not be able to give you another dose until tomorrow at the earliest."

[OOC: Take 10 on a Treat Injury check to use my med kit to restore 4 VP to Tilon]

Gives another pull on the STAP with the cable before letting go as it hovers over the berm, wiping his brow. "I had an audience...Master seems to think I try to hard with an audience.." He grins, sheepishly.

Once the STAP has been pulled within easy reach of the berm, Denny will cut off the used portion of liquid rope with a vibroknife, and coil it up to hang over one of his many shoulders. Then, he will then clamber up onto the STAP, and rev the engines up. He beckons to Pog, yelling, "Climb aboard, if you can find room. I'll ferry you over to the other speeder, and perhaps we can tow it over."
