STAR WARS: RETROSPECTION- Rescue

Stay together, for now at least, I think...

Xavier stays behind listening and sensing everything around him.

So it's just you and me right now huh?

"Yes," Xavier says quietly to himself.

So.... read anything good last night?

This planet is teeming with life, Xavier. You are surprised that you could sense the natives ahead of you. Aside from that, this world is very calming as you can barely see or hear anything. Like the others, though, you are damn cold.

Which feels nice for Rianna, after that fiery sensation the poison caused.

Rianna, Dak, you sense people nearby. Sentries, you think.

Rianna feels the need to sneak up on the sentries and kill them quickly...

(and don't worry. It won't be long before she's back to bitching about cold)

Sneaky sneaky death death...

So it's kinda cold out here

"So it would seem."

You know the whole bald thing doesn't seem so smart now

What method will be employed in killing them? I've already made the Intrusion rolls...

Well, about how many are there and how far are we from the actual camp and all that fun stuff?

You cannot be specific of the number as you cannot see them, but you sense they are spread apart.

Hmm. Well, how about if the two of us split up and approach the sentries from each side?

Sounds good to me!

There's tactics, but will you be doing this via lightsaber or via Jedi kung fu?

We'll take laser lawnmowing for 500, Alex!

We have conferred and decided to go with lightsabers! Make this as quick as possible.

Lightsabering it is!

Using her Jedi senses, Rianna creeps up on a sentry. The natives of Magnus Delta look nearly human, with the exception of the camouflaged fish-like scales that cover their bodies. This one is wearing a loin cloth and holding a nasty spear. A 17 on the Intrusion roll means he has no idea you are coming when suddenly a lightsaber has bisected him.

Dak does the same, slinking through the fog towards his own sentry. The sentry is idly sharpening a knife against a rock when you are upon him. Dak rolls a 19 and decapitates the sentry without a problem.

However, immediately after the stealthy kills, you sense people coming your way.

Yay for people. More to kill!

Rianna votes that they find somewhere to hide while whoever's coming checks out the bodies. Then we take care of them as well.

Dak agrees.

Intrusion rolls made... Dak rolls a 15 which means he ducks down and conceals himself amidst the mud and reeds from any incoming Magnesians. But Rianna rolls a 2, which even the bonus from Distract cannot help. She fails the Intrusion roll (further evidence of the dice not loving Lana), and so even in the fog the Magnesian cries out an alarm when Rianna is spotted...

Oh, for ****'s sake...

(I'm declaring that Rianna tripped over something she didn't notice while trying to hide...😛)

How many are there? Just one? I vote we kill him quickly and then move.

You can only see one, but you sense others.
