Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi part 2

"Yeshua, can you triangulate on that comm signal? The survivors? We should set course, immediately."

 

[Dire Lemming]

"I'm trying." Yeshua says, already doing just that. "I'm no slicer though... You're the tech wiz."

Yeshua tries to determine the location of the survivors as quickly and accurately as possible but is more than willing to move over and let Anariel do it instead.

Yeshua is--with a minor degree of difficulty--able to locate the position of the settlement on the planet's surface. It is dusk there at the moment, as night is slowly closing in on the secondary continent. It is located on the banks of a large river.

The young human looks up and shouts "I've got it! Let's go!"

The small corvette rockets through the twilight sky, racing towards a burning beacon on the horizon. Sensors indicate that it was the remains of a spaceport, and the large flames and smoke trail are the results of burning starship fuel.

Then the sensors pick up another signal: an extremely small--at least small when a 150 meter ship is concerned--blip on the screen that's coming towards you at quite a conspicuous speed from the ravaged city.

"Something's coming," Kestrel says from where she's been manning the sensors. "Small and fast. Could be a fighter. I don't have any identification from it."

She frowns as she tries to operate the sensor controls, never having studied them before beyond the most basic elements. "Anariel...I think I need help with these," she finally admits.

(Computer Use: 12 http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/1700397/ Not as bad as I expected, but she really isn't very good with computers. )

 

[Dire Lemming]

"Keep the shields powered. What's it's course?" Yeshua orders. Feeling a bit like his sister Dianara, captaining a capital ship. Of course she actually knew everything about being a commander. He was just a Jedi Knight, and a rookie at that.

 

[Rhun]

"I'm on it," says Anariel, hands flying over the console as she aids Kestrel.


Not a good roll for me, but: 15. With Kestrel's 12 on an aid another, that gives us a 17.

 

[possum]

The sensors don't tell you much, as it's apparently made of an unknown type of metal. It's about 10 meters long, you can tell from the sensor readout and headed straight towards you at a speed of about 5 meters per second.

 

[Dire Lemming]

"Get us out of it's path, and get a weapon lock." Yeshua calls, as he attempts to hail the object for communication. "It could be a projectile, but it could be an escape craft."
