JEDI VS. SITH - ERENGARD - Sith Team

"I wonder..." Jarku says. "Eldros, how do you feel about checking it out? I am sure Darth Mengl would be pleased to hear that you investigated..."

Boxes of supplies in large variety, a resupply effort to the base here on Erengard. Other transports unload heavy military equipment, including a few Sith tanks- which are basically turbolasers on wheels and not highly sophisticated despite their bronzium chassis. Mainly, the import consists of combat-ready men.

Those of you attuned to the Force- which is many of you- sense the man before you see him, though you wonder how it is that you did not notice him right away after you do. A man wearing a tight-fitting gas mask and a spotless white trenchcoat comes strolling through the waves of men toward you, hands folded behind his back.

"You are the Sith sent to assist Lord Mengl?" he asks, inquisitively, inspecting each of you in turn. His voice is distorted by the mask, filtered through a vocoder-type device.

Lykro stays facing the Sith unloading the transports, though his focus is drawn to the newcomer.

He waits a few seconds after the white coated man finished speaking before turning to face him properly. "We are," he replies. "I take it you'll be leading us to him?"

"Yes," the white-coated gas-masked man says. You can sort of make out the outline of his eyes through the circular eye holes, enough that you can tell he is scrutinizing your group. "Where are the others?"

"They apparently decided that wasting time to take a look at the blockade was what they wished to do, instead of landing," Vilani replies, brushing back a stray feather. "I see no reason why they should waste anyone's time but their own."

"Indeed," Lykro says, nodding his head in agreement with Vilani.

Eldros the thrill-seeker is going to gear up his fighter and send it racing toward the point where the Republic craft are trying to break through.

"Let's see if they've got anyone impressive here..." Eldros says, wanting to test his skills as a pilot against someone else.

The man sighs a heavy, rattling breath through the filter of his mask.

"Very well," he says. "Darth Mengl is in the middle of an experiment and needs more time before you are to meet him. I am Wurths, his assistant. I am to show you about our central base and review the current arrangements for the military campaign."

Jarku's transport turns tail to head back to the original course but Eldros zips into action! Sith starfighters in your area are converging on the point where the private transports are trying to breach the blockade.

Eldros keeps rocketing out to meet the private transports, wanting to wreak some havoc with his starfighter.

"Please do show us in, then," Vilani says, pulling her cloak tight. "I do not wish to stay out in this cold any longer than absolutely necessary."

You arrive at the point of the breach! Before you a series of explosions light up briefly as Sith starfighters are destroyed. There are three ships of the Republic group still in action- if there were any others, they have been destroyed. The first ship is a junky old freighter that looks like it will fall apart if you so much as bump it. The second is a modified medical shuttle. The third is a Republic troop transport!

Without a word, Wurths turns and starts walking into the town.

Who all is going with him?
