Just waiting to see what Graff does. Lillian is getting ready to defend the Dawn and await the return of her compatriots, in some form or other.

EDIT: Did Bao cover Tuljei's fee?

Sorry for the delay everybody, I was down with a migraine. Much better now.

Neither Lillian's info nor Graff's (from the bartender - trying to squeeze info out of the Honey Trap obviously didn't accomplish much) amounts to much taken separately, but taken together? Together, I think the two of them collected just enough information to send Graff on a spree.

Also, I'm assuming the spores were delivered before Star left the bar, since she couldn't be sure Graff was going to follow her up to the penthouse. Also, this assumption is easier on the ol' ego.

Graff'll have to tell Lillian what the information is, because I haven't been keeping up. What sort of spree? I'm more than willing to help.

Don't worry, Graff will totally share it IC.

And it's the sort of spree that starts with gunning down a couple of Twi'lek assassins, and ends with blowing up a space station. Pretty much out of sheer bloody-mindedness.

Lilly has a crush on the Sergeant, but Graff's Wild Whirlwind of Death might capture her heart as well.

Blowing up the station is definitely a fun time, but we'll probably want our allies before we set off on a magical adventure to blow things up.

You kind of need me and my kit if you want to a proper job of it. Can't have a bunch of amateurs running about with my explosives.

And will the Chiss play nice with my angel of death? I'd really hate to have add her name to my list.

Blackmail FTW, y'all.

And when Graff gets ready to take out the station, I figured we'd start by seeing how tough the interior walls of the hangar bay are. Heavy laser-proof? Proton torpedo-proof? (I really need a smiley for "cackles of evil, maniacal laughter" right about here.)

So, red flags and warning bells all over this chick. 'I hate you, you insane karker' to 'I want in your pants, take me away' in three seconds flat. Your women frighten me Fel, especially after reading what happened to Graff.

Phil, I'm currently waiting on Graff to pick up a holophone call from Ice. Think you might have missed it (it's towards the end of the previous page). He's basically asking you where you are and will meet you there. I'm thinking we should try to get the party back together, if for no other reason than to make it easier on Felhammer. Plus we need to swap stories.

Sorry, TC. I've gotcha now.

ETA: Graff is jumping to conclusions, but IMO the chain of logic holds even without OOC knowledge. The key points are the infection, which is apparently specific to Graff (see Lillian's words about getting him to a specialist), and Darth Mastigo's message, which also is apparently specific to Graff (hence Lillian's warning that it might distract him from the mission). The only person who's gotten close enough to dose Graff with anything has been Star. And if Lillian knows about all this from the Darth's message, then it stands to reason that Star is working for the Sith. Makes sense, yes?

Phil, clear out your PM boxes -- you're full!

Noedig, shoot the Chiss in the knee and kick her into the hole. The bugs will be attracted to the scent of her blood if they exist, and if they don't, she can crawl the length of the tunnel. If she complains, step on the new wound. Everyone wins.

I considered that approach, truly I did. I probably will end up shooting her, mainly out of neccesity. If she turns out to be legit, she gets to live. If not she dies.

I was thinking it was Ataru that added the +2, force pointed added extra movement. Fixing that now.

Poor mook...He's sitting around, guarding the prison, being a smug corrupt *******...Suddenly he is in two pieces.

((honestly doubt he's dead, but its still amusing to picture))

Just a note: I just started my new job (finally!), so for the next week I may be a bit more sporadic than usual, until things calm down and I get used to the job.

I'm pretty sure we've all become slightly more sporadic, so that shouldn't be any great issue.

Thanks! Having a job beats being unemployed by a long shot... At least it will once I get paid

We have become a bit more sporadic but that's because we've had a month of solo adventures. You can be as fast or as slow as you want to be since other people aren't relying on you to post as regularly. Look at some of the stuff Lilly did, I think one night there we had like 16 posts between us. That just doesn't happen in a normal game because, in addition to being regular, you have to allow other people a chance to speak.

Yeah, there was a lot of posts... but then I'd not post for like four days and then Lilly was half an hour after everyone else.

Mastigo went cookoo for cocopuffs. He killed a spy, then gave a speech, then started flinging his saber into the crowd that had gathered to hear the Sith.

Default Re: OOC: SW Saga: E-i-E - Chap. II: Hope's Gambit

As you near the front steaps of the Casino, you see a Sith - the same Sith whom you fought on the Broadsword - hoisting a Besalisk's decapitated head into the air and declaring, "THE SITH DO NOT SUFFER SPIES, TRAITORS OR REBELS! THIS MAN WAS FOUND GUILTY OF BEING ALL THREE." Two stormtroppers kick the headless body down the steps, the fat, giggling, four armed corpse comes to rest a few meters away from you. The cooked meat smell of cauterized flesh wafts in the air. "WE WILL KILL ANY AND ALL WHO ARE LIKE THIS... BEAST!"


The Sith stands atop the stairs and proclaims, "All of you know full well, the great pains I've always taken never to be too strict, too rigid with the application of our laws. As a consequence, have we not learned to live together in relative peace and harmony? And this day's lawlessness is how you repay my leniency. Well you leave me with little choice. An assault on the Sith's soldiers is the same as an assault on the Darth Krayt himself. Forty Five people in this crowd will be culled as a fitting punishment for the insult this spy and coward has inflicted upon the One Sith."

Before the crowd can react, Darth Mastigo flings a cylinder into the mass of people. Suddenly, a Red Blade emerges from the Hilt. Using the force, Mastigo wills the blade around in a circle and tosses it about. Hordes of people lose limbs, unlucky few are sliced in half, or worse, are decapitated. The crowd tries to run away but the saber keeps pace. Ice distinctly sees some people trip, fall to the ground and are trampled by the mass of panicking people. Hundreds are injured, many die, all the while Darth Mastigo smiles like a child in a toy store.

My basic plan here is to do one of the following, either
A) Convince the guard's to surrender, learn where our credit chips are (if they're easy to get to grab them, otherwise leave them), then tie them up or bind them with stuff in this room, grab a better weapons, and depart.
B) Kill the guards, look for anything useful in here (credit chips or better guns) then depart.

I think that Kel and Staen will probably be heading to the hanger deck, bluffing our way past anyone who doesn't seem to know we're wanted criminals and trying to get aboard the ship.

I want to have Staen keep an eye out for a security computer terminal, ideally one that's already logged in. I want to see what kind of charges are on us and maybe try to clear them. Staen is no Ice but these security forces seem pretty pathetic if they didn't even take our utility belts, so I figure their computer security probably sucks too.

If they are willing to talk about Captain Falod Riehlt the only problem I see with this is them being able to talk about how we have weapons and escaped. Might be risky.
B) Kill the guards, look for anything useful in here (credit chips or better guns) then depart.
If we can avoid cameras and such by us opening all the jail cells with a lightsaber it should make it hard for them to tell who did it. Avoiding all the cameras is the hard part though.

I leave the bluffing to you :P

I don't what it is, but sometimes I feel like Fel tries to make us feel bad when we kill people. I dunno, maybe I'm reading to much into it. What do you guys think?
