USH'S STAR WARS GAME- CAMPAIGN II EPISODE II (DARK SIDE)- In the Coils of the Serpent

Started by Lord Melkor215 pages

I can help Dexx with it, did you like one of my former ideas concerning Yago?

Ushgarak, who is the Lantarnan Yago has most emmnity with?
If Gallador doesn`t know it, he will try to get this information from one of serpent members.( but he was trying to gather general information before.)

I can't wait to see how far this brings our Animosity after this...

Oi...Rand has a headache...

Is it possible for Rianna to sneak in behind them? Or must they make note of her?

Hey, Darkside is anything but cooperative!

What about this idea I had?

Hmmm....gotta figure out a way to get me up there....maybe we could play it off like I'm some sort of bodyguard (throw them for a loop there....haha...) so I can go up with you, but not actually go in the library -- just say that I had to be sure you guys got up there fine, and pretend like I'm going to go back down but actually go off to find Mika's rooms...any possibility of that working, or if I were to say I'd be going back down would one of the librarians or someone go back down to make sure I actually do so?

Having one of the members of the group wanting to murder the leader might just screw with our animosity rating a bit....but it's Rand's damn fault if Rianna decides he must die....😛

It would need a good intrusion roll to manage to sneak away if they knew you came up.

Gallador- definitely his father, Vigo. You sensed very strong and genuine thoughts of revenge.

Hmmm.......

I'll see if I can come up with any other ideas.

Maybe we can turn his frustration, anger and stupidity to our advantage? This is the way of Darkside.

Maybe we can tell him we are here to assasinate Vigo and we need his help?

I am going offline, Dexx wait with aproaching Yago.

I think you are on a good line there, Gallador.

However, you sense a certain pride in Yago. He needs to gloat- a dead Vigo beings him no room to do that.

But what when Vigo is humiliated with tablets being stolen? And then Yago is the one to retrieve them? Or so he would believe.

Possibly, we could have Yago help us, or at least Rianna, get to the tablet? Or maybe tell us what the security system for the tablet is.

It's a workable plan, yes. If you word it right.

*gasp*

i thought I was supposed to access the library..so i was confused about what to do with yago. and yes i want to see that library sometime!!
i think i got something of the plan from ush's explanations. so i am to access to top level (somehow) and provide rianna with a cover.
and as i am completely out of ideas....i guess assasinating vigo sounds like a plausible idea

Takuan approaches yago.
"fine! i will tell you my plan, if that's what it takes.
You haven't heard of our organisation but i assure you...we have done careful planning on this matter. studies on the population inside this citadel and other systems show that if vigo were to be assasinated, bora's right to power would be unbalanced by the chaos that would follow. that would be your best chance to grab the power and climb to the top. your brothers and sister will have their hands full, we took care of that. we are, therefore, here to carry out the assassination mission. and i need your help to get to the top level. you will not regret this..."

do a persuasion roll with my skill (not the mind trick) on that

If we're having illusions due to the drugs we're taking for the atmosphere on this rock. I assume that the other residents do as well.
If we only have one librarian with us could we 'convince' that Rianna is just a drug induced figment of his imagination?

'fraid not, Rah, the illusions only come to newbies before their body chemsistry adjusts after a few months.

Takuan- we just rejected assassination in lieu of something else!

Glancing at the librarian, Tanic asked him,
"Well we can come on up then? Could we perhaps retrieve one of our companions from the lower level? Unfortunately only two of us were brought up - he was trying to get up by himself?"

Gallador goes with Takuan to face Yago, telling him about the current plan.

Ushgarak, if it is possible we will try to speak with Yago privately, we will try to do it with as much confidentiality as possible.

Gallador will use all his persuading abilities, trying to appear as a confident and powerful being, as he speaks with his melodic voice:

"As you should have noticed, we represent a great power, and posess extraordinary abilities, in combat and other areas! We noticed the strenght within you! But your father clearly doesn`t aknowledge your efforts to make Serpent even more powerful! He thinks you are weak, too weak to lead!

But we can prove him wrong, we can make people here respect you! And we will make a fool from your father who doesn`t think he needs his best son!

We intend to steal the Sith tablets, which will weaken your father`s position! After we copy the information we need, we will allow you to get the tablets back! Than everyone will see that you are worthy to be your father`s heir! No one will dare to laugh at you again! They will call you Yago the great!

Will you ally with us?! It is risky, I admit, but only those who are brave can raise to greatness!

Wow...

That was good.

You were actually discussing something different earlier on, Tanic.

-

Yago (in private except for his flunkies) blinks.

"Quit it with the long words, brainiac!" he says. "What language are you speaking, anyway? I got something about nicking shifts from my father... something about being strong... THAT'S true... 'the Great' I like... what was that about powers?"

Just the one tablet, btw, Gallador. Good pitch, but with Yago you REALLY gave to simplify.

Gallador uses all his willpower to do not show his frustration.

"Okay, we will steal the tablet with your help. Your father will look like an idiot. Than we will give the tablet to you. Everybody will think that you defeated us. They are going to respect you. They will think you are strong, that you are powerful. Even your father will see it!"

Yago thinks about that for a few moments.

"Hmmm..." he says.

"Heh," shortly after.

"Hah!"

"Ha... Hahahah! Hahahahaha! HAHAAHAHAHAHAHA! That's BRILLIANT! Think how he will look! 'Where's your tablet, daddy?' I'll ask. And he'll say "I don't know, Yago, someone must have taken them, and he would have to be REAAAAAAAAAALLLY clever to have done it... and then I'll say... HAHAHAHA! That was MEEEE! IIIIII did it, because IIIIII am really clever! HAHAHAHAHA!

"No wait, it's ridicula... ridico... it's silly, it won't work. You'll never get into the vault. Besides, you're just a bunch of guys!"
