STAR WARS: RETROSPECTION- Chains

Hanza and Nelgrin alone pose significant threat. They have brought four thugs with them.

I don't see any other option outside of surrender and, well, I don't trust Hanza not to shoot us in the back. 😛

Vlad appears to make the decision for you. He drops his blaster rifle and goes for his sabers, the yellow blades flashing into being.

"Whoa," Hanza says. "Are you deaf? Or just stupid?"

"Neither," Vlad says firmly.

Wentar nods at Vlad, re adjusting his grip on his lightsaber, with an added twirl for show.

"Let's see how you handle two Jedi knights Hanza."

Focused Guard, Reflection and Block.

"You- " Hanza starts to say, but Nelgrin has had enough of words.

The Herglic charges forward raises his war hammer over his head before bringing it down. At first you scoff at the clumsy blow as the hammer's head strikes the ground a clear two feet in front of you... until a surge of power emanates from the weapon like a shockwave and sends you and Vlad both flying backwards against the central computer bank.

You both take 14 damage.

Wentar grunts as he hits the computer banks. "He needs to be taken down fast," he says. "You deal with the thugs and then join me against the Herglic."

Lets do this!

You rise to do battle with the tremendous beast! He brings his war hammer up again...

"Wait, stop stop stop," Hanza says, waggling his pistol at you. "Let's try this one. Drop the swords or your Jedi friend dies."

Wentar pauses. "I thought you intended to execute him anyway," he says.

"Where'd you hear that?" Hanza asks. "Pfft, he's worth more alive! Unless you think otherwise..."

"A rumor, glad to hear it's wrong," Wentar says. "And why in the world would I think otherwise of a fellow jedi?"

Hanza shrugs and offers a sardonic smile.

"What are you up to Hanza?" Wentar asks.

"I dunno," Hanza says, keeping the pistol leveled on you.

Spending a force point to scan Hanza to see if he is bluffing with his 'Wasn't going to kill Altar but will now if yo do't give up' bargain.

Point spent.

He appears to be bluffing.

"Don't lie to me Hanza," Wentar says simply. "I know you're bluffing."

You sense danger.

Coming from anywhere specific or just in general? Either way Wentar will be on his guard, ready to leap away from his current position if he has to.

Leaping away gives Nelgrin a free attack, unless you are just being descriptive.

Just being descriptive. I wont move if moving is a dangerous act itself.

Actually, if something does happen, like Hanza attacking or something exploding Defensive Leap away!
