Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi

"I don't know what proof you expect. He is no less fallible than any other being. He is only one man. If he's as well liked as he seems to be then that is a major weakness that can be exploited. We need only to bring hope to your other comrades that they could be free of his tyranny and have a chance at a decent life. I doubt many will risk their lives for Thorren's sake once they know of our intentions. We just need some way to communicate them. Can you think of anything? Er, by the way, what's you name?"

I was afraid of that...

Mikal," he says. "As to the others... Mess is in about 45 minutes. It's very possible that I can speak with some of my friends--those that feel the same way. If you're brave enough, maybe even you three could come along."

 

[Dire Lemming]

OOC: Yes, I was talking to him a whole lot before hand to establish him as an important character first so that you'd have time to come up with one. Thank goodness for PbP though huh?

"Hm..." Yeshua looks at the first pirate they met, sitting bound and gagged in the back. "I don't think we should leave him alone with your injured friends. I could go, but I think at least one of us should stay here and watch over the others." He looks back at Mikal. "How many do you think can be convinced?"

 

[possum]

My initial plans for Mikal was really simple: he was to die on one of your lightsaber blades.

"You're right about the others," Mikal replies. "At least Tohm's bleeding has stopped. He should be fine, but I'm no trained medic. As to how many there are that are interested in rebellion," he thinks for a moment. "Of the 25 on board right now, there are about 10 of us that are really starting to chafe under Thorren's tyranny. There are others that are on the edge. As to the ground team, we could be looking at as many as 15. Small numbers, but when there are Jedi..."

 

[Dire Lemming]

OOC: Sorry to disappoint you... well not really...

"The other's may change their minds when they realize how many of their friends have. Have you got any idea what would make them willing to risk their lives to stop a rebellion against Thorren? Surely not simple fear of reprisal."

 

[Voda Vosa]

OOC: Its amazing how we player can twist the course of a game, just speaking.

"I'll go to the mess and meet with them" says Anariel. "I have the most skill in diplomacy."

 

[Dire Lemming]

Yeshua nods. "Alright, just remember to keep your Lightsaber hidden. Kestrel, can you take care of these guys?"

The original plan of this was for all of you to do a type of Seven Samurai thing and train the civilians to help you fight. Obviously, this is a little more interesting.

"We've got to come up for a reason that Lorrn's been missing, though," Mikal says, scratching at the stubble on his chin. Thankfully, mess is almost here and the others' shifts are over... We could always say that he's been ill," he adds.

 

[Dire Lemming]

Yeshua shakes his head. "Why don't we just say we don't know? No one else does, so that seems like it would be the least suspicious. If we just say he's sick they'll look for him where ever he'd be if that were true and find out we're lying. Who's the commander of this vessel right now?"
