USH'S STAR WARS GAME- CAMPAIGN II EPISODE VI (DARK SIDE)- Enemy

Epireus

Edna- you are awake. You wish you weren't.

You are suffering from a vicious migraine that pulses and beats inside your head. You've been having little headaches lately- you think you are taking a while to adjust to the atmosphere of this world. It's a high-pressure world; Epireus base is up a mountain where the atmosphere is more suitable but even so; there's something about this place that your biology is taking time to adjust to. You've not dared been down the mountain to the surrounding jungle yet, where the Epirean tribes dwell.

Boredom is gnawing at you also. Problem is, there's not much to do here. Days just go by- safe... but pointless. Every plan these people have is so slow, and you just have to wait and wait.

For someone reason your headache is much worse this morning; your vision almost swims as you haul yourself out of bed. You want to sleep more, but an irritating rattling sound from one of the nearby quarters makes it impossible.

Several others of you are in the base. Rand is at the control room, where he can monitor the base systems and external transmissions. All is quiet. No sign of Adelmo, or those pirates, or even any pursuers from Selene. Transmission wise, you are watching various comments on your assassination of the Emperor, which has made you guys outlaws-of-the-moment in the outer regions. You had a brief scare yesterday when you picked uo a Bureau signal about tracking Dark Siders, but you soon worked out the source was plotting a course nowhere near you. Some other poor sod on the wrong end of the neurowhips. Nope, all is fine here... so you can afford another glass of wine. You are only slightly disturbed by the odd transmission from Dak, who vents his anger at the world when you tell him you are still seeing a red light on his system.

Dak is on systems maintenance, and is checking out some faults that are showing on the fault checker. The thing with the fault checker is that it finds faults well enough, but if Doon had away of knowing how to fix them from the checker, he didn't leave an instruction manual around. It's also not portable; it is built into the central control panel so you keep having to call Rand. You've narrowed the problem down to the lighting controls- they've failed before- so you have been replacing parts. You've now run out of good parts, and are using second-hand spares. Yesterday you had to choose between the damaged circuit link that might not work properly or the wrong type of circuit link that might blow the system. You tried the damaged one, which promptly blew the system. You've not been in a good mood since. With enough work all day today, you might just get back to where you were at the start of yesterday, Gah. Relle runs past your ladder, from where you are poking around at ceiling electronics, perfectly content with the world. You add her to the hate list.

Relle is exercising, as she often does. The outer ring of the base makes a good running circuit- wide corridors and so on, though you had better get it done before evening comes because if Dak doesn't repair the lighting system it will be pretty dangerous running around in the dark, though maybe a good test of the Force. Your ears pick up the sounds of an argument, and you shift course to get closer to the source. That brings you by the workshop- that'll be Azarl and Xaviuer arguing again. Just as they were yesterday. Smiling more, you run on by.

Whilst J7''s head recites some spectacularly long lost language, the rest of his body is in bits all over a work surface. And, you are fairly sure Azarl, one of his servo motors is now inside Xavier's half-complete hover speeder. That man has no idea of organisation or boundaries- heck, he can't even agree with himself, let alone other people. From there, the argument has moved onto which one of you gets to use the only decent circuit scanner you have, essential for checking whether you have connected complicated circuits correctly. You had this argument yesterday about the micro cutter. The problem is, you guys have no way of settling things randomly. If you toss a coin, it's merely a question of HOW you cheat, not if. Do you use the Force to predict the result, or alter it? Xavier, meanwhile, is stuck with an internal monologue about whether it best suits him to keep friendly with Azarl so that it may benefit him in future, or forcing the issue to a sabre duel in order to assert his authority. If only your sabres could no delicate micro-cutting work, the argument yesterday would never have happened...

The rest of you are not on the base. Galder has been out talking with Firak, the tribal Epirean leader friendly to your rule. Many of your leading Epireans are still recovering from their injuries on Selene and you are worried about organised security. Gallador has been out and about in the jungles listening out for rumours about Ogros. Con has gone with him- though not always literally side by side- and any new players that are joining now are following Con's lead. He can explain to them what the deal is with Ogros. Rianna was out there killing randoms in the jungle for fun. So she said- actually, she's found the lack of contact in the jungle very handy for focussing on her developing force skills, but she's embarrassed to tell people that.

That's now changed- you all met up yesterday, Ogros has attacked and annihilated one of Firak's villages. He;s grown bold, but a strike makes him vulnerable. He's fled back into the jungle but he must be in the area, or at least a lot of his followers. This is a chance to pick up his trail, and no matter how dense the jungle is, it is not Force-proof. Galder, Gallador, Con and any new guys are leading an expedition of Epireans into the denser jungle. Rianna has been sent back to the areas around the mountain to raise more forces from the loyal tribespeople there; she is nearing the mountain.

And so we begin... just play on as you feel appropriate, and we shall see how things unfold. Nothing major will happen until after the weekend, to give everyone a chance to see we've started and ask any questions.

Hey! Who says Rianna's embarrassed? She just wants to be able to surprise people with her new abilities big grin

(also trying to concentrate around that bunch of idiots is an exercise in futility)

Dak fiddles with the loose wires forming a nest around his head, grumpily tugging one long one out of the multicolored knot and jamming it into what he's pretty sure is the connector for the circuit link. "I swear, if she comes near this ladder one more time I'm killing her..." he mutters, looking his work over. The damaged link may have been of some help, since he can now spend hours and hours modifying the connections to hopefully work with the wrong circuit link he has left.

"I should be in the comm room and Rand should be up here... maybe he'd fry himself..." The lizard's stomach growls in protest of the extended time he's already spent on this task.

Rianna will be making her way through the jungles around the mountain, mentally grumbling to herself about this - she doesn't like dealing with other people much, let alone Epireans, and would really rather be doing other things with her time right now. Though it's always nice to be able to escape the base...

Come on let's just push the little bugger out of here. Maybe cut of his leg to teach him a lesson.

As Azral continues to disagree with Xavier he starts to rub his head with two of his fingers.

Between Azral's squeaking and the voice in his head Xavier has not been having a good couple of days. It isn't like J6 was really using it's parts to begin with.

"Do we have to keep doing this," he grumbles to no one in particular.
Focusing on Azral and in the peppiest voice he can must he tells Azral, "If you let us have the circuit scanner we'll build J6 back for you afterwards. Better than he was. You're not even that good fixing things you're as likely to break him... even more than he already is."

Galder will be meeting with Firak regarding the recent attack by Ogros, mainly to show his support and start to ingratiate himself as a respected figure with Firak and the Epireans that follow him.

"My sympathies on those lost in the attack, Firak," Galder says. "I assure you that my accomplices are doing everything they can to track down the attackers, if not Ogros himself. He is a fool to move against someone who has pledged their firm allegiance to us."

Galder obviously is secretly more concerned about the security of the mountain base. He thinks he can handle it himself, really, being the phenomenal warrior that he is and having practiced a great deal with Kuylen's lightsaber lately, trying to mirror Kuylen's more refined style.

Firak doesn't care about the casualties. There are always more to find.

"I knew this would happen," he said. "Ogros is too proud. He could not wait and do nothing; he would lose all his so-called respect. Now he's been forced to move and we have our chance."

"A prospect I have no doubt you're excited about," Galder says. "As are we, especially after that stunt he pulled during the Games. I fully intend to capture him alive and let you do the honors..."

"Your generosity is appreciated," says Firak. "His followers as slaves would be also."

Azarl is distracted enough with all the things that J6 spews out of his harddrives while he tinkers with the droid's innards, he doesn't need Xavier causing him problems as well.

"You're no better than I am," Azarl says, in a forced and heavy Basic that he has adapted from his guttural native tongue. "And frankly, J6 is more useful than your little buggy here. I'm surprised that thing even made it off of Selene."

"Consider it done, though if we find anyone that we particularly want, we may have to haggle," Galder says with a smirk. "Otherwise, the majority will be your slaves for the whipping."

"We should try not to kill too many., With Ogros dead, they will no longer have a cause."

Onto the harder question. Firak is loyal and commands well but his complete lack of initiative or imagination are good points for control but bad for devolved decision making, He'l just send his men en masse into the jungle and blunder around. If you want to find Ogros, you'll need to plan it yourselves.

Relle will have been working on her reconstructed lightsaber, tweaking it to fit her specifications, before going on this run. She now carries the hilt around with her, a longer double-edged design to compliment her controlled acrobatic style.

She smirks as she hears Dak curse about something while she runs around the base, content to at least be able to exercise to circumvent her boredom.

Edana curses loudly to herself then the pain in her head from her own voice makes her regret that and she curses quietly to herslef again. This bloody planet!

Gradually Edana staggers across the room feeling very dizzy and heads off in search of the cause of that infuriating rattling. I swear to god if Gallador is rearrangng his ancient manuscript collection again, I'll shove those things so far up his backside he'll be shitting jedi-lore for the next millenium!

Rand sips his wine and periodically checks in with Dak, informing him if he has succeeded in doing anything besides mess around pointlessly with the circuits and parts and all that he is working on.

"Perhaps we should consider conducting a raid for technical parts," Rand says. "Find somewhere out of the way, outside of the Republic, that would have what we need. It would be a simple task, really. And perhaps we should invest in some technical droids to assist with maintenance... something we can also steal."

Rand swirls the wine around in his glass, first by moving the glass, then keeping the motion of the wine going with the Force.

When Dak is off the line, he'll peruse for any other Galactic news.

Still very much a red light for Dak, Rand. Also a slow news day.

Relle, you are gong to have to consider what to do on your next circuit, going past Dak...

Dak, meanwhile, has to decide whether to try and fix the problem or yank it all out and start over.

Edna- the noise is from a few rooms down,. It is Eller's room.

"Yes, because that went so well on Newhaven, didn't it," Dak responds to Rand, snarling as something gets caught in the wires. He jams the remaining circuit link into place and reroutes power to it, hoping that his quick fix will make it compatible.

Those damned pebbles! Edana's fury lightens however with the realisation that Gallador is not the cause of today's irritation. She pokes her head into Eller's quarters and gives an awkward smile, visibly fighting the pain. "I don't suppose those pebbles have told you I have a migrain have they?"

The floor of her room is covered with stones, which she is picking up, dropping, turning over, re-arranging...

"Why would I check for something so specific?" she asks.
