STAR WARS: RETROSPECTION- Thief

We will be inspecific about the amount of money Haron is carrying around; it is not greatly important to gameplay. Suffice to say it is a small fortune. Everything else is fine.

Since Haron looks the part, wearing a finely cut suit, and can facilitate the business-like behavior expected from someone wearing such an outfit, the receptionist smiles.

"Of course, sir," she says. "Our private suites are on the uppermost levels of the InterGalactic Resort, reserved for only the most wealthy of travelers. I am supposing you have the funds required to stay in such a suite?"

"Of course" Haron says while handing over his credits

"This way, sir," the receptionist says, guiding you toward a lift.

The suite that you rent out is the height of luxury- an extraordinary view of Harnaidan from nearly the top of the hotel, an immense bed with more room than you need, holographic entertainment displays showing current Republic stock ratings and a variety of sports, a sonic shower, and, of course, room service.

As you requested privacy, the room will only be entered if you give express permission. They understand that men of business need time to themselves.

And now you have somewhere to operate from! Your Astromech droid is able to charge in a corner of the suite.

Is there a computer?

Certainly.

I'd like to put my briefcase on the bed and open it up, place my lightsaber in a holster thats across my chest then leave the room with X12, and enter the elevator.

Consider your lightsaber hidden in your suit jacket! Where do you want to go from the hotel?

I'd like to go to the topmost floor

The floor that the elevator tops off at is used primarily for business meetings, with several conference rooms. From here you can see almost all of Harnaidan- the columnesque towers that make up the city, the steaming green oceans beyond the coast.

X12 beeps- he is wondering where you are going.

I'd like to check around for stairs leading to the roof

You find them in a short maintenance cooridor labeled 'Employees Only.' A ladder leads up to hatch for roof access.

can i open the door and walk to the roof then

The hatch requires an employee key to open, you notice. If forced, an alarm will sound.

X12 nudges your leg, wondering again what you are doing.

I'd like to ask X12 to open the door for me

X12 emits a series of blurps that have a negative tone to them, and you see the problem. The key required is not electronic; it is an old-fashioned key. Additionally, X12 cannot reasonably scale the ladder to the hatch anyway.

It would be Fix-It to disable the alarm (X12 can do that much for you using a nearby control panel) and Intrusion to pick the lock... which you do not have. It would very easily come undone if you cut it with your lightsaber, but that would be a ridiculous way to blow your cover this soon into your heist plans.

Is it possible for me to try and pick the lock with the force?

Such a feat would require a fine-tuned control over the Force, as represented by the kinetic power 'Precision.'

What is it that you wanted to be doing on the roof of your hotel?

I wanted to find out in relationship to the hotel, where the bank is

Ah! No need to go to the roof for that. You can see the Bank down below through one of the windows of the conference rooms. It is a much shorter structure, about a fourth the height of the hotel. It is roughly three blocks down, in line with the hotel.

mmm... Ok, I'd like to drop X12 off at my room change into my casual clothing, and take a cab to the nearest cantina.
