USH'S STAR WARS GAME- CAMPAIGN II EPISODE IV (JEDI)- Purity

Started by Lord Melkor121 pages

(have you Jedi actually checked the history of Sienar and his career in the church? What about Kathya?)

(You know, he has a point. All you guys know about Sienar is that he was an apprentice to Paluzzi and then he was an Abbot.)

You don't know where specific people are. You could head down to the Basilica and see what's up there. Anyone going to the Basilica will need to relinquish their sabre again, of course.

I was making a bit of a hint with my Mr. Diplomacy line, btw.

Going for Kellan was the right thing to do, Gallagher. You see her go over the edge, you twist away from Run dell and roll, and with all your instincts of the Force your hand shoots and and grabs her own.

Korth is there a split second later, with a blow to Rundell that knocks him out.

For a moment, Gallagher feels that he will not catch her hand... but when he realizes that he is clutching it tightly, he smiles at Kellan reassuringly. Not being the strongest of Padawans, favoring meditation and reading to physical fitness, Gallagher struggles for a moment as he pulls her up onto the roof, but manages to toss her down beside him, safely on the roof.

He lays there for a moment, then gets to his feet, dusting off his white robes.

"That went... better than expected," Gallagher says, looking down at the unconscious Rundell before remembering Kellan. He turns to her.

"Are you alright, Kellan?" he asks.

Perhaps it would be best if Jelena accompanied Andro to the Basilica? Would she be able to investigate Sienar's record with the Church there?

You or Roan. It's not Andro's sort of deal; if the churchy types give trouble then he might snap.

-

Gallagher- you remember that moment... relief? Elation? Surely you felt that. But then... why can you not remember those feelings?

You snap to, awake. The Senatorial meetings are in fullf low. The elction reuslts have been concluded; Sienar will be anncouned as the new Archimandrite shortly. You are alone in Sienar's rooms.

Jelena will accompany Andro, then, warily telling her companion that she thinks it would be best if she came along to help him with his investigating.

Gallagher stays still and blinks for a moment, trying to recall how he felt upon rescuing Kellan from the clutches of Rundell. But it slips away from him, consciousness washing away the images of the rescue atop the Klinge-Faust tower. He is puzzled at his inability to recall the elation and relief, and puzzled that he cannot rightly recall much interaction with his sister.

But one thing is for certain; Rundell did not kill Kellan at that point, if at all...

Gallagher rises and uses the Force to sense about for anything unusual. He checks the time and realizes that Sienar would have been voted into the office of Archimandrite already.

"Anyone else and the media would have dug up enough dirt to terraform Coruscant," Gallagher sighs to himself. "Not Sienar."

"I don't mind the company. I'm probably not the best for this, but we need to move quickly. This is more than coming down to the wire."

Ok, you guys need to speak to some of the admin people at the Basilica. Let's cut this short- what reason are you giving to want to look at the accounts to the Offatory fund?

-

You have a bad feeling about this day, Gallagher. What do yuo want to do, both now and in general?

Gallagher wants to go see Sienar right now. In general he wants to try understanding why Gallagher is having bad feelings about today...

We are going to say that we have reason to believe that Varm was abusing the Offatory fund and tarnishing Sienar's good name in order to handle his gambling debts with the Hutts, and we want to confirm it for our investigation.

(I like it. Got any mind tricks to back it up, just in case?)

(Unfortunately not, but Jelena is not too bad off socially.)

Sienar is currently being confirmed by the Abbot's Council, one of the periods of time in which he is unavailable to either be talked to on the bad side, or to plot against you on the good).

Persuade roll from Jelena... passed! They don't really want to hand it over on general principles, but they have no particular reason to stop you. They say it won't be much good to you though- the majority of donations are anonymous, made at churches throughout this quadrant of the Galaxy.

You have the computerised accounts; what to do with them?

(Couple ideas. First, look for names we know, like Twain, Kathya, Varm, Mirani; Kinda obvious and probably silly, but it's be stupid to overlook. Next, can we get a list of Senatora attending, and see if any are on there? After that, we could sort the donation by ammount, and see who Seinar's biggest fans are.)

Additionally, since I think these are anonymous donations, can we see where the money that Sienar has used from the fund is going?

(Ok, I missed an important word there. Althoug it'll be interesting to see who is named, maybe. So maybe we can pick the organization that either donates the most, or most often. Then we can see who is tied to that organization.)

Hmm... well, with Sienar unable to get away from his current duties to the Synod and Gallagher sensing that their time is running out... he wants to contemplate stealing the briefcase from Tavers, as the lawyer stated that all the answers to this situation lie within it.

Where are you going to look for Tavers? He's not in Sienar's rooms.

-

Ok, a number of things about the Offatory accounts

- Some of these donors must be ridiculously ric because the funds going into this thing, whilst there are countless smaller donations, also contain regular payments of many millions.

- The odd thing is, Andro, is that the Offatory fund seems to have beeb barely used...

... - until, this week, where a huge amount of it was transferred out into a private account

All the forms and other legal gumf for the accounts have been signed off by Kathya.
