The Star Wars Iconic Characters and the Lords of the Expanse: Hunting Grounds (cont.)

[Vor'en Kurn]

Vor'en grins in exhiliration behind his mask as the last target fades, and gives a curt, satisfied nod at the scores. Then he hears Assadi's comment, and his grin turns a bit savage. All right. Lets see what this guy's got....

"Droids're all that've stepped forward. Wanna piece of this?" His language gets looser as his confidence grows, settling into the macho banter of two males trying to outdo each other.

 

[Pbartender]

"Only if you insist," Assadi replies with a coolly satisfied grin. He steps back to the console to reset the program, "Do you want the same level? Or would you rather try something a little more... challenging?"

 

[Thomas Hobbes]

One of these days I'll get the hang of this cookie thing.

 

[Vor'en Kurn]

Vor'en shrugs. "Whatever you want, pal."

 

[Arani Korden]

ooc: Grah! Arani smash puny moustache man! Arani is strongest one there is!

Or to put it another way, go Vor'en!

 

[Pbartender]

Assadi taps a few buttons on the console to load a new program. The metal dome of the target range fades from view as a realistic holographic landscape suddenly appears. There is a thick forest to one side, rolling plains to the other, a quick-flowing river winds its way down to a small lake, and mountains tower in the near distance.

"This," Assadi explains, "is a program meant to simulate the various terrains of Vycinyth. It contains a catalogued library of simulations for every wild animal in the known galaxy. The goal is to spot and successfuly shoot the simulated wild animals that are hiding nearby. Kill shots are scored higher than wounds.

"Understand?"

 

[Sia-Lan Wezz]

Sia-Lan Wezz whistled cheerily as she hopped from the ship, glancing around at their new location. Her curious and ever active blue eyes looked at every little thing as she walked around, wondering where the others had gotten to.

For once, her Jedi outfit had been pressed cleanly and she actually looked like a smashing representative of the Jedi Order. Though her rather wild red hair and the bouncy way she sauntered along didn't quite fit the mysterious calm Jedi persona.

Their rooms seemed very nice and Sia helped herself to everything edible in there but obviously there wasn't enough.

Everyone had gone off somewhere and Sia wasn't really sure where they had, so she went off in search of their whereabouts.

 

[Vor'en Kurn]

Sneaky bastard. I see what you're doing. Vor'en smiles in appreciation at what he can't help but think is a tipping of the scales. "Awards sharp eyes as much as accuracy. Fair 'nough." He raises his rifle to the ready position again. "If you've got the time, though, I get to choose the next one."

ooc: Oh yeah- Welcome back, Sia! I was starting to miss our hyper annoying Jedi. Not that Vor'en would ever admit it....

 

[Jack Haggerty]

Damn. Did it again. That's what I get for posting at work.

 

[Pbartender]

At the target range...

"I have all afternoon," the mercenary replies, as he checks the charge on his blaster. He taps a key to set the program running. "Begin," he instructs, bringing his blaster to the ready and peering intently through the nearby foliage.

Back at the suite...

Just as Sia was preparing to leave, she notices a note tacked up to the food storage unit in the kitchenette. It informs her that Arani and Vor'en have gone off to the lodge's target range, and that Rorworr and Kelko are doing some sight-seeing in the skyhook's atrium.
