[SWSE] A New Fear (OOC)

[ffanxii4ever]

"Ummm, well surely you have heard of an individual called Darth Pyrus? Yay or nay? Nevertheless, we ran into him underneath Draago's palace, and after he introduced himself and made his sales pitch, Samael began to mouth off to the Sith Lord, despite the rather...obvious display of his overwhelming power, Samael began to provoke him. Well, despite my insistance that Samael shut his mouth and start to be polite, he continued to yap, so much so that Pyrus, well Pyrus incinerated him. He then proceeded to rip the rest of us to shreds, some of us more literally than others" *Arkan looks at his new arms, seperates them and shows them off very quickly*"Sooo, yeah that was kinda what happened to us. The rest of us managed to survive the encounter, we got rescued by the Wolves, and brought back to Mandalore where they did a very good job of patching us all up, and then we went on to our rescue mission where we found all of you. Do you happen to know what they were researching there?"

Geddon nods grimly.

Jax seems at once impressed and concerned by the display.

"Sooo, yeah that was kinda what happened to us. The rest of us managed to survive the encounter, we got rescued by the Wolves, and brought back to Mandalore where they did a very good job of patching us all up, and then we went on to our rescue mission where we found all of you.

"His power always came with pride. It saddens me that it was his downfall."

Do you happen to know what they were researching there?"

He takes a deep breath, as if searching for where to start. "Our minds. I do not remember much of what occurred after my capture, much of it I remember as if in a trance, like a nightmare I could not awake from." He shakes his head, "I hope you gathered some data before the facility blew, because the others have similar experiences." He peers closely at you for a moment and you feel his force senses reaching out, and his frown deepens. "I thought it was that...place, but Arkan, I sense a growing darkness in you. What has happened?"

A handful of ...unfortunate incidents has somewhat sobered my outlook.
Not to mention a desire to keep our true motives secret at Draago's palace, which required me to act less like a Jedi and more like a mercenary. Needless to say I am now of the opinion that the ends might just end up justifying the means, which while definitely does not line up with the Jedi Code, might just end up prolonging my life expectancy after everything that has happened

His frown turns into a grimace towards the end of your speech. "I understand your desire to take the quick and easy path, but the code is there to keep us from falling into darkness. If you where to fully give into your baser instincts you could do untold harm with your abilities, and there would be few who could stand in your way. Do you understand? I want you to let go of your anger before it destroys you, and all you hold dear..."

 

[JediJake]

It was your destiny.

After completing A New Fear, you have also completed your first minor destiny. Nax, Arkan, Shardus, and Verda have fulfilled their first destinies by rescueing Jax and the others, destroying an important secret sith base, and discovering a horrific secret within. You characters can pick either the Destruction or Discovery or Rescue bonuses for fulfilling a destiny found on page 114 of the core rulebook.

The next few posts will detail the goings and have a small amount of time pass so you can purchase your new equipment, level up, and start the next episode of the game.

Nax, I really do need to know if your going to be able to show up for the next sessions as soon as you can tell me, cause some rather important things are going to go on next game, and in the interim important stuff is happening with your character.

 

[JediJake]

These go up to eleven.

Alright, make sure you guys level up to level four before the next session and add your destiny bonuses to your characters cause your gonna need them. I have a question for you guys, do you want to turn the power level up? Like way over the top, Warhammer 40k up? Or would you prefer a moderately less powerful character and opposition? I'm prepared either way to turn the game to eleven if thats what you guys want. Is it?

Well, I'm not quite so angry any more, now that the damn slicer is dead (Not you Shardus ), but I will try to...control myself a bit more

((OOC: Are we at a point for purchasing upgrades? If so, I want to pay the ten grand for the Superior Agile Armor (+2 Max Dex Bonus to armor) and then the Destruction destiny fulfillment with a +2 to my Dex) and the typical level up stuff, correct?))

Yes, its time to buy, and I'm going to gift a few things to you for completing your rite.

Cool pic, here is the thing, my idea is that I can and should just go whole hog and give you the very best gear for graduating supercommando crash course. This would help all of us in that I would have a clearer view of exactly what your capable of and just looking forward to leveling and all that.
