The Continued Misadventures of the Starwars Iconic Characters...

[Sia-Lan Wezz]

Sia-Lan chuckles mildly at Valara's comment, and seems to relax a bit before continuing.

"A 'massuese' is someone who massages, or rubs the pain and stiffness from your muscles and joints. I've never been to one, but Arani told me about a place I'd like to go to sometime... I'm sorry I laughed a bit, it's just that you sounded like a Jedi Master when you said that." She glances over at Sen before continuing, "What's that phrase?" She adopts a husky quality to her voice and a faint accent, even though she speaks quietly still... "'Be mindful of the living Force.'"

Sia-Lan chuckles a bit more quietly to herself before lapsing into thoughtful silence.

 

[Sen Udo-Mal]

Sen will smile and some of the antics of his follow compatriots, and nod to Valara, and in a hushed voice reply "Ah yes, many Jedi are great healers, but unfortunately I am still just an apprentice. My skills with the Force are still weak in the areas of healing or of moving objects, as I have seen others do with ease. My gifts with the Force focus more on enhancing my senses and see beyond that which is right in front of me… I also have a few other minor abilities but I am still a student of the Force and have a great deal to learn."

OCC sorry it took so long to reply, been really sick the last few days... hate the flu

 

[Dorn Tavers]

Dorn rolls his eyes as he trails along at the rear of the party, listening to the conversation of the women just ahead of him.

"The way this trip has gone so far, we are all probably going to need a lot more than a masseuse by the time we get off this planet."

Dorn glances up at the trees as he walks, maintaining a careful watch for anything suspicious in the jungle around the group.

 

[Set Harth]

Set trails the rest of the group, staying well back from the wet wookiee. He starts and stares at every sound and occationally glares suspiciously at Valara. Grumbles can be heard emiting from Set's mouth, to low to be understood.

 

[Valara Saar]

Valara will stiffen and her cheeks will go very red when Sia-lan starts to chuckle. Thinking to herself that she has said something wrong, she looks down at her feet so that Sia Lan would not be able to see her shame.

When Sia-lan explains why she was chuckling though, she looks back up at her and smiles at the compliment.

"Thank you for that. But it seems common sense only. If you look too far to the future you might step on a snake and never get there."

She looks at Set who seems not to like her, or anything at all.

"What is wrong with him? He has the force, and he is with Jedi, making him Jedi, but he does not act like a jedi. Is this um, usual. What about the code?
There is no emotion, there is peace
there is no ignorance, only knowledge
there is no passion, there is serenity
there is no death, there is the Force"
She says the code with complete concentration on her face, as if recalling something of extreme importance and reverance. She takes a moment to think about those words that she has learned from a scrap of paper left on Yushuvi for unknown years by the Jedi who lived there.

 

[Arani Korden]

Arani leaves Sia-Lan and Valara to their philosophical discussion, and becomes lost in her own thoughts.

Set's crabbier than usual. Maybe it's because the humidity's messing with his hairstyle. Or maybe his pants are chafing. Oh, who'm I kidding - he's always like this. I wish there were some way to draw him out of his shell, and make him feel like part of the group . . . . I guess if there were a real problem, his Jedi master would have said something to him.

I don't think this Valara person likes me. I'll have to sit down and get to know her once we're safe on the ship. If we make it back to the ship. It's probably just a bad first impression. After all, I'm filthy, and my hair's a mess - once she sees me at my best, I'm sure she'll warm up to me.

Yeah, just like Set warmed up to me.

Sia-Lan seems to be getting along with her. Maybe it's a Jedi thing.

'Lan's limp seems to be getting worse.

Dorn's being quiet. He seems to be looking at Valara a lot, though. Not that I care.

Please don't let me get shot.

 

[Jack Haggerty]

OOC: You have much to learn young Padawans... Your homework assignment for tonight is to reread the sections on Heal Another and Heal Self on pages 87 and 86 in Chapter 4: Skills.

Sorry my posts have been so brief. I had a long week on the owl shift at work...

As Rorworr and Kelko blaze a trail toward the column of smoke that is barely visible through the trees, the others walk on behind... Complaining to or conversing with their new aquaintance as befits the demeanor of each. Only minutes after setting out, our heroes are universally drenched in their own sweat. The local star has reached its zenith in the sky, and the jungle is filled with a thin haze and a clinging humidity.

At irregular intervals, Sen can still hear the rustling of the highest tree branchs, a sound that is now undoubtly following them as they travel. Yet still, he never catches even the slightest glimpse of the tree-top phantom.

Sen, the ten minutes on your Enhance Senses is coming to an end, do wish to continue?

 

[Sia-Lan Wezz]

Sia-Lan continues walking and talking in hushed tones with the newcomer, she seems to be becoming more at ease with her.

"Yes, you are right again Valara, but bringing up things I may or may not do when we get back to civilization is a sort of way for me to lighten the mood. On a 'normal' day, Arani wouldn't have stopped talking, and several of the others are more silent than usual. Sometimes... Well, it can be good to think of comforting thoughts, to remind us of things to come, and to distract us from mistakes we've made so we aren't constantly punishing ourselves for them... If I hadn't dashed into the river, I wouldn't be slowing us down so much now."

Sia-Lan looks at her companion to see if there is any understanding there before continuing. "So I was simply trying to put a silence to my own nagging guilt, in order to find the peace of which the code speaks."

Glancing back at Set, she pauses a moment before continuing, choosing her words carefully and lowering her volume even more. "Set is a jedi, as sure as I am, but he has much more self-confidence and that has given him a bit too much pride... While it may be a weakness in a Jedi, it is no more so than my own weakness for dwelling on my pastmistakes..."

Speaking louder again, she finishes her thought with a smile. It does seem that we all have a lot to learn from each other, however."

 

[Valara Saar]

"You need not slow us if you do not want to. I...I can try to heal you, if you will let me....It might not work, but doing nothing wont work either. Its up to you."

Valara is a bit hesitant about the offer, she is afraid she will not be seen as good enough if she is unable to heal Sia-Lan. She would not have offered if Sia-Lan hadn't been a jedi or hadn't tried to be nice to her.

"Zeev, Hunt." she says absently to her pet, sending him off to be out from underfoot.

If Sia-Lan Grants her permission she will use a force point(she really wants to impress the first jedi she meets, she is a little afraid she might fail, Jack you determine if that little bit of fear calls the darkside or not) + heal another on Sia-Lan(+6+fp roll+1d20) if she succesfully hits 20-24 heal dex damage 25 and up, heal dex then strength.
If Sia Lan says no I will edit this part out.

 

[Sen Udo-Mal]

Sen will take a moment to focus his will and continue his Enhanced Senses.
He will then remain silent and watch Valara closely if she heals Sia-Lan or not... not that he does not trust her, only that he is curious about this aspect of the Force.
Sen will also glace up at the trees often to see if he can catch sight of what is following them... and will mention it again (in hushed tones) "We should not stay in any one place for more then a moment or two if you wish to try Valara. I sense... something in these trees... whether it is hostile or not I can not say but I do not wish to take any unnecessary risks..."
