    Default [Star Wars SAGA] Shadows of the Republic IC

    A Long Time Ago in a Galaxy Far Far Away
    It is a period of great unrest in the galaxy. In the core, the galactic government THE REPUBLIC smolders in conflict between the planet ALSAKAN and CORUSCANT over the right to claim the right as capital of the galactic senate. While open conflict has been avoided, war lurks in the shadows and the mighty REPUBLIC NAVY maintains an intense vigil among the coreward worlds.

    In the Expansion Region and Outer Rim the galaxy suffers another conflict, between the warlords and kingpins seeking to establish control among the forgotten frontier. Meanwhile, remnants from the invasion and repulsion of the SITH EMPIRE remain a threat to the lives of those who struggle to get by in the unforgiving Rim.

    The threats in the Outer Rim are not all so ancient, nor originating within the REPUBLIC. The mighty HUTT EMPIRE and the MANDALORIAN CRUSADERS, long forgotten by galactic civilization outside their territories have begun to expand into what was once REPUBLIC space.

    On a recently acquired Hutt world a strange band of travelers and misfits are gathered by crime boss KRADDA THE HUTT for a job that promises a great payday and reward, but in this galaxy nothing is certain, and danger lurks around every corner…

    You all arrive in the “Palace” of the esteemed Hutt Prince Kradda the Hutt. In actuality the building is more reminiscent of a retrofitted warehouse than a palace, but, the meager setting does not preclude the usual indulgences common among the Hutts. Twi’lek girls dance seductively throughout the cavernous meeting place and rich rugs and tapestries hang from the walls and cover the floors. Lounging in the center of the affair, heaped upon thick pillows is your potential employer, Kradda the Hutt.

    Sitting beside the Hutt is a beat up and battered protocol droid torso, its design looks quite old and judging by its missing limbs the droid has seen better days. Flanking the walls immediately inside the room are four armed Rodians standing with blaster rifles hanging ready in front of them.

    The great Hutt boss, or ‘Prince’, as he was introduced to you is mostly brown in color, large and voluptuous as the Hutts are known to be. Sitting beside him is an ornate hookah pipe, a single hose hangs lazily out of the corner of his mouth and his eyes appear glazed though upon your entrance he seems to take notice and sit forward some. Laying in front of the gargantuan Hutt are two Kath Hounds, each chained to an unseen palette upon which the Hutt rests.

    Spoiler: ”Knowledge: Bueracracy: 10 or higher”
    Show
    It is apparent from the ornate hookah’s design and sigil that it signifies Kradda as a Kajidic Lorda, or Huttese clan head, an equivalent to a Prince in many ways. It is a high crime in Hutt law to claim Lorda status illegitimately.


    Upon your arrival, the Zeltron who escorted you in bows to the Hutt, speaking in Huttese,

    Spoiler: ”Lemuel, Taro, and Elyndrael only”
    Show
    <Great master Hutt, Prince of Nal Dumma, this one now presents the mercenaries your honorable grace has requested>


    After speaking the Zeltron leaves through the entrance you came through leaving you to face the Hutt.

    Spoiler: ”Lemuel, Taro, and Elyndrael only”
    Show
    <Greetings offworlders, welcome to Nar Kreeta, the newest jewel of the mighty Hutt Empire. As always it pleases me to meet new assets looking for work. As you were no doubt informed, the job I offer pays well, 5,000 Republic Credits or their equivalent per head that succeeds in accomplishing the task I wish completed.
    That you are here expresses interest, what I offer is this, take a simple package I have in need of delivery to the planet Alsakan in the Core and deliver it to the proper recipient. Then, take whatever the client on Alsakan has and return it to me here. You are not under any circumstances to surrender this or the return package to the Republic or any other agency, nor are you to seek to discover the nature of either package for yourself. To do so will lead to immediate termination of both the deal and yourselves. Do you accept these terms? >


    As the Hutt pauses between sentences the droid head and torso speaks in Galactic Basic.

    “Unnecessary Flattery: You stand before the great and mighty Prince Kradda the Hutt, it is your honor and privilege to look upon his visage."

    “Statement: The mighty Kradda bids you welcome and expresses platitudes at finding more organics to employ.”

    “Redundant Explanation: The mighty Kradda wishes to remind those present that the job pays 5,000 Republic Credits or their equivalency per head that accept and completes the objective set forth by his eminence.”

    “Explanation: The job is a simple courier job, to the planet Alsakan in Republic space and a return delivery from Alsakan. To accept will mean accepting responsibility for both package arriving securely and untampered with to both their destinations and with no interference by the Republic or another organization.”

    “Query: Do you organics accept his emminence’s most kind and generous offer, or does a simple delivery pose too much of a stumbling block for your simple organic minds?”

    Given the effort put into traveling here, Lemuel takes the initiative and steps forward after mumbling to his compatriots in basic, 'We didn't come all this way for nothing.'. He traces a deep bow before speaking in Huttese to the great slug, 'Good prince, I and my team humbly thank you for granting us an audience. It would be an honor to carry out your wishes and accept such a task. Are there any further stipulations for this mission, your excellency?'

    Logan nudges Lemuel, whispering into his ear.
    Could you ask what we are supposed to be carrying here, or to who we are going to deliver this thing to? I have a bad history with Republic officials.
    The ex-SpecForce operative's face is mostly covered by a dark glass-like material. What you can see is a scowl that hasn't left Logan's face since the group had entered the place.(OOC:think Judge Dread)

    The Hutt adjusts himself slightly upon his lounge, appraising the Ryn who spoke Huttese a moment before responding in kind.

    <None beyond what has been stated. Shall you accept then? If so I shall have Danaxa inform you of the more pertinent details and give over care of the package to your team as courier. Be aware Ryn, you and yours will be held responsible in entirety for anything that happens on this delivery. You shall not be free from obligation to me and the Hutts until you stand before me again with the return package from Alsakan. If you fail to do so, you shall bring my ire upon your heads. And you do not desire such, I promise you little Ryn.>

    The Ryn straightens up, a broad, cold smile spreads across his face as he continues in Huttese, 'I assure you, Lorda Kadda, the only thing I and mine will be responsible for is the safe and secure delivery of this package. Our prompt return with the secondary package will confirm as much. We accept this job.'

    <Good, good, this is what I like to hear from those I employ. I hope your confidence matches you skill>


    The Hutt shifts slightly, allowing him to press an unseen button and the Zeltron who escorted you in reappears from behind you.

    "You have accepted his excellencies offer, this is good, please, follow me I shall inform you of the details, but first, I need your names and a brief list of qualifications. Previous work, skills, that sort of thing. You understand of course, it is good to know the names of those whom you employ."

    As he talked the pink skinned Zeltron led the group back out the entrance hall they had entered through, but instead of heading outside, he took them down a side hall that branched off from the main corridor.

    Not for the first time, Ev wished she hadn't grown up quite so cut off from the rest of the galaxy. Also that she were better at languages. While Vimreon and the Hutt spoke in what she assumed must be Hutt-speak, Ev tried hard not to stare at the bizarre slug-like monstrosity lounging at the head of the room. She'd heard they were very proud, and though he wasn't the first one she'd seen, she might not be able to keep an expression of slight revulsion from crossing her face.

    Instead, she ogled one of the Twi'lek dancing girls, but had to look away on feeling a sudden rush of poignancy for the lover she left behind. Then, thankfully, the half-a-droid began to speak Basic and gave her something to look at.

    With the exchange over, she realised she had been volunteered for a job without being asked. Her independent streak felt mildly put out, but being honest with herself she knew she would have said yes anyway. They needed the credits.

    As the bright pink near-human led them out of the Hutt's audience chamber, she cast her eyes and her mind around for anything untoward. She wasn't sure she trusted him. She would have to think carefully about what to reveal in the "background checks".

    At the same time, she whispered to Vimreon, That emblem on the Hutt's hookah: doesn't that mean he's someone important? Bit odd that he's operating out of a place like this.

    I don't trust 'his highness' to be willing to pay 35,000 credits just to deliver a package. I'm not a jedi like you two, but I've got a gut feeling from walking into one too many traps, that this is a trap.

    You notice what you'd expect in a place like this, cameras monitor your movements, and you get the feeling there's more than just the four armed Rodians in the main room and as you enter the hall your hair stands up slightly as if you're being looked at but you don't seem to be in any danger at the moment. A typical hive of scum and villainy if ever there was one.

    You sense a three lifeforms behind you as you walk down the corridor. They don't seem to be aggressive, but they also seem ready should a fight break out. Based purely on your senses you'd wager they were keeping an eye on you but not actively planning to attack you without provocation or authorization.

    You sense three armed guards behind you and two walking parallel to you within the walls as you walk down the hall. They seem only to be monitoring you and don't seem to hold any aggressive intent towards you at the moment. With the awareness of the lives within the wall you notice small, inconspicuous plates along the wall, at about hip height which you would wager are in actuality murderholes through which a blaster or slugthrower could fire with ease.

And of course, with the nature of the package it is important to the Prince that an independent ship such as belongs to your crew handle its delivery. But I speak too hastily, tell me, what are your names and professions?"

    Hidden guns, Ev sends telepathically to each of her companions. She doesn't think any of them will do anything stupid, but forewarned is forearmed.

    A flash of anger in her eyes, Ev snaps at Logan in a harsh whisper. Call me a f***ing Jedi one more time and I'll shove a laser sword so far up your a***hole you'll be brushing your back teeth with it when I turn it on.

    Still, she has to admit Logan has good instincts. With effort, she lets the anger flow away, calms her mind, and searches her feelings the way her mother and father taught her. If they were walking into a trap, the Force should give her enough warning.

    Specifically, Ev is searching her feelings to learn the short-term consequences of following the Zeltron where he is leading them.

    Sure, I could have taken 10 the second time, but where's the fun in that?

    Zeison Sha, genius. There's not just two lots o' folk in the galaxy that use the Force, you know. When we're under way I can give you a history lesson. If I can find a HoloNet page with plenty of pictures, that is. Short version: Jedi are treacherous, child-stealing b*****ds that left us to rot on a forsaken rock. So we don't like 'em. Clear enough for you?

    I've decided Ev will speak with what, in our world, would be an urban Irish accent. Think how Irish mobsters talk on US TV. Just to help you imagine the swearing properly.

    You know what? I have to agree that I don't like the Jedi Order, though not for the same reasons. They are too pacifistic for my tastes. Also, from what I understand, they do that so those children don't hurt themselves or others with their own power, though again, I'm not defending themselves.

    Good. As long as you don't associate me with those scumbags, I won't have to kick your a**e, Ev says, jokily elbow-nudging Logan with a friendly smirk on her face.

    There you go, another guy who thinks it's just one or the other: Jedi or Sith. If the Force is a coin, it lands on its edge a heck of a lot. And the Sith are scumbags too, right enough, but at least they don't pretend to have everyone else's best interests at heart.

    "Danaxa Gres, I am sworn to his eminence the Prince Kadda and have served him for years. For now that is all you need to know," the Zeltron answered, "So a pilot-"

    With the interruption of the Zeison Sha the Zeltron stood quietly by as the argument erupted between the members. He seems unperturbed by the events unfolding, no doubt owing to his aforementioned years of service to a Hutt who often hired some of the more volatile personalities in the galaxy for various jobs.

    "A pilot, a 'Zesion Sha' mystic, what of you others?" Those paying attention to the surroundings notice the Zeltron seems to have stopped attempting to usher you onward and is standing in front of the control panel that would seemingly access a door in the hallway that seems to be your destination.

    Following the Zeltron seems to be safe, at least, as safe as walking around in a Hutt hideout on a Hutt planet can be, though there is a danger present as you were already aware. This danger does not seem to be waiting in ambush, but it isn't fading.

    Elyndrael was silent, others were eager to answer and ask questions. She listen to the hutt and mentally took note of importants fact (NO opening and no abandonning). As the Zeltron walked us out to another room, she analysed her peers while they start debating.

    "I'm afraid I must insist on logging names and professions before I can give you access to the package. The Prince needs to know into who's hands he is putting this important delivery." the Zeltron said, tapping his datapad.
    As the Zeltron spoke, she came back to present, she looked at the man and answer: "I'm Elyndrael Starfell, mecanics and smuggler. I'm sure you'll be able to track down my older bosses and see my qualifications."
