USH'S STAR WARS GAME- CAMPAIGN II, EPISODE I (DARK SIDE)- New Order

"Well, I ain't got any reason to tell anyone I saw you..." he says, rather blankly.

Sorted.

Now pas the farmhouse, you can naviagte down tracks between fields, and soon the twon is in the distance. However, before long, you run into a local- there is a farmhand at the side of the road, programming some electrical equipment built into the ground. He turns round lazily to look at you guys as you approach.

(Why do I think he'll be in for a shock?)

Tanic waits patiently, a small smile playing across his face at Nume's control over the man as he thinks of Takuan's certainty of being able to have the same effect.

Because you don't think he will be as convincing as he thinks he will be.

(Hm fair enough. I'll change that post then.)

Nume moves on, smiling at his power over the weak-minded farmer. He motions for the rest to follow. "It seems that there is only 'one man from Coruscant' that they know of. One Jedi against all of us is nothing. If you see him, though, keep hidden until we've found Kuylen. If Kuylen wills it, we shall handle the Jedi later. If he sees you and recognizes you as a wanted man, we'll have to kill him, won't we?"

Well, it's not much longer after that, then, that you come to the outskirts of the town. Many dwellings, and vast silos, can be seen in the distance. Plan?

Galder smiles as well, and leans closer to Rah. "Back off, the Jedi will be mine," he whispered, inaudible so that the hick could not hear. Galder shared a glance with Rah then both of them looked to the hick and his machine. "Yeah, what's that?"

Rah cant help but grin "Indeed!" he whispers out of the corner of his mouth "So long as you dont find a way to blow us up first... 😛 " He teases Galder companionably.
Rah follows Nume towards the town.

"Oh yeah? If it wasn't for me on Corisine, we'd have all died. But I blew up all the soldiers...and everyone else..." Galder remembers, then stops because it was less good from then on.

Galder follows Nume. "Plan, leader?"

"Welcome to Prosperity..." Nume mutters, then turns to everyone.

"This is the deal. We shall stay together, and if anyone asks you in a suspicious manner, mind tricks will do, or lies. If you see the Jedi, do as I said earlier and keep from sight. No disintegrations!" Nume says, pointing at Galder. "We must keep from killing as long as possible, otherwise we'll have police all over us."

"Sure, we could kill them all, but then the Jedi would be tracking us, hunting us. I don't feel like being hunted right now."

"Top priority is finding Kuylen. Rura, got a hold on the signal yet?"

Takuan looks strangely at galder and rah.
"why are youy so anxious to meet jedi. They can only bring trouble.
One jedi will draw more jedi if he only encounters us.
however...we don't know if he's a jedi.."

He then turns to rura for that response..

"Sorry, I can't give you an exact fix," says Rura. "The buildings are making exact tracing on a signal designed to brodcast between stars rather difficult."

I am sure one of you can trace it, but you'll need to get closer. You'll have to search the town until you get a lock. Someone with a good fix-it score is your best choice.

Takuan, as you raise the point- and Nume can help on this... in your experience of Jedi, they tend to be rather direct. They try to respond quickly and improvise upon arrivial, trying their best to get things done under their own authority. This whole invoking of Republican law requiring senatorial approval, evacuation notices, the forcible searching of all incoming ships... not the Jedi way you remember.

Not that they couldn't act this way. But it could take ages to set up something like this in the name of catching one criminal. If it is a Jedi, he's taking a long time to catch his man, for whatever reason he is here.

(Incidentally, Galder, you might find it hard to avoid killing these people if they insist on opening their mouths...)

FINAL CALL FOR USE OF PREDICTIVE POWERS

(for the sake of anyone who has not used one yet)

(I just realized that Galder has dreams! He'll use Dreams.)

(I agree with that, Ush...)

"What if these certain people want to open their big ass mouths and say 'Look, I found a bad man'?" Galder asks Nume, looking around the city.

"Then do it quietly..." Nume tells him, then turns back to Takuan.

"Maybe it is a ruse used by the Jedi, though I could not think of why. I do not suppose anyone has heard of Zatev and could tell me why they've got Jedi and evacuations..."

Nah, none of you have heard of him.

But on the other hand, if all this has been in process for some time, why make the rendezvous here? No, this all looks very recent.

"As I recall, sometimes Kuylen would wear his Jedi robes. Perhaps he is disguised as the man from Coruscant, taking advantage of the crisis?"

"Surely someone would have recognized him," Nume replies. "He was, after all, one of the most wanted men in the universe during your time with him. It is likely that he still is."

Hmm, well, if anyone is going to not recognise him, it is this lot...

"Well, this is a moot point unless we get recognised or until we find Kuylen. Why doesn't Galder have a go at getting a better location?" Tanic points out, "Although I do agree we most certainly need a plan. But for a plan we need to know where we're headed."

(Galder and Vash have the highest fix-it score - 9. Followed by Tanic at 8.)
