USH'S STAR WARS GAME- CAMPAIGN II EPISODE III (DARK SIDE)- The Way Back

Started by newjak86170 pages

Why can't you let us in we were attacked. As far as I know we are either here to buy parts and fix the base. If that turns out to not happen then we will probably get jobs somewhere and for me Newhaven is a good as place as any.
(I'm going to use Scan on him Ush)

Contempt, from him.

"Oh, you want to live here?" he asks.

bleh..i kinda feel like killing him 😛

Man, Takuan's just never happy!

(Ush I'm going to use my Intimidate Skill on him)
*Xavier slowly stands up leaning over the table so his size can be seen.*
Xavier speaks in a stern voice so as not to alert the guards outside, "I just lost alot my friends, my life as I know it has been turned upside down. These are people I have sweet and bleed with. All DEAD and there was nothing I could have done to save them. Now your here interrogating over it and asking whether or now I want to live here."
Xavier lowers his voice but is still keeping the sternness in it," I am trying to get over this tragedy and move on with my life and you are making it really hard."
( I'm going to use scan after this to see how he feels after that)

Xavier, this won`t work!

Sorry about that I'm still in the phase where I'm testing out how skills can be used but if you say it won't work than I won't do it.
I still pretty much say the same thing Ush I just won't use Intimidate on him and I'll stay seated. I also speak in a less stern voice.

As a new player you can ask GM for advice, I think, but you are not in right position to perform intimidation, this guy thinks that he has advantage and you are on his mercy.

it depends melkor....intimidation is a skill.....
and this guy probably has a certain difficulty roll....it can be beaten....
but i wouldn't have tried it, no 🙂...
there's not feasible purpose behind it....we're on their ground

You want to kill him, Dexx? Just imagine how irritated Rianna's gotta be with her interviewer....she's actually had to pretend to be nice to someone!

Rianna-

"But as you are not a skilled expert in that area, I fail to see how you can be any use in that."

"An expert, no. But that doesn't mean that I'm still not skilled, I just haven't mastered everything yet." Rianna says. She stops for a moment, and then adds, "And at any rate, I do not really see why that fact would have any bearing on whether or not I am allowed to stay on planet."

"I really don't care what you do in general; it's what you do here that I am concerned about."

"Well, I don't have much other purpose than to get what I need, and then return to the facility. If, when I confer with the others who still wish to return, we believe a pirate raid is plausible, which I am sure it is, then I shall endeavor to acquire some decent security for our facility. What do you imagine I can do with an unassembled defensive system?

"I really don't see the problem with letting us enter."

"How much money I have is none of your concern," Rand says, using a Mind Trick. "And I'm a damned good worker...some think I'm not to bright, but oh, I'll work damned hard..."

(Hurray for Of Mice and Men...)

Intimidate is very useful for certain situations, but this really isn't one of them.

Xavier-

"Spare me the sob story," he says. "You either meet the legal terms of entry or you do not; your circumstances that cause your situation do not concern me."

-

Rianna-

"I am afraid your word is not good enough. If I am to reigster you on your visa as a Miner, I need relevant qualifications or assembly membership. Without those I cannot put down that occupation. Without that you are a nobody. A nobody has no good purpose to be here. If you cannot show be a purpose that in any way interests us then you have no grounds for entry."

-

Tanic

"My worry is that you won't be playing a useful part in society. I also worry that, unprepared and unsecure, any weapons you buy will go straight into the hands of pirates."

-

Rand... hmm, pushing it there with the Mind Trick. I'll let it slide for now but that was unsubtle.

"Work damn hard? As a Merchant?"

"So by putting money into the economy of the planet I will not be playing a useful part in society? I would have also thought the profit from the mining would also somewhat aid in society. Do you have a degree in economics, sir?"

"Your mining operation does not benefit this economy. You aren't even sure what you are going to buy and you can provide me no reassurance of the security of that you wish to purchase."

It should though though because isn't it your guys' job to stop stuff like this from happening isn't it?

"Not outside the Republic it isn't."

"Ah," Tanic says, "And somehow I doubt you'd let me in if I was to say I would not buy anything. Well certainly, if I am to put your mind at rest, I will be buying spare parts and the like, though I do not have an inventory on me at this time. For security, of course, I can do little to reassure you, except that if the pirates raid us again, then they are still out of the Republic, and so not your concern."

Your right I just lost alot of friends and I'm not thinking straight. Listen I'm a good hard worker and I probably won't stay here but until me and the other survivors figure out what we want to do then I go not no where esle to go.

Takuan deepens himself in a meditative state awaiting things to come.
He reaches out, sensing the suroundings.
what do i sense....it might be useful when we come back...to see if aggressive negotiations are a solution if they try and stop us..... 😛
