STAR WARS: RETROSPECTION- Virus

No chance to refill it if you use it, mind you.

Rhys then notices what Rylis noticed as she made it into City Central- it looks like a battle happened here! Burned out vehicles, bodies torn by laser burns, damaged buildings... and a wall of cars that are impassable with the speeder.

Quick flight over the wall of cars shouldn't use up much fuel at all, though, right?

She'll just climb it, then, if that's a potential issue.

Not much at all, just letting you know. Jet or climb?

Jet over, since it'd be like a five second flight at most.

Indeed, it is very quick as the wall is not very high. Your jetpack powers up and lifts you to the top of the cars in moments, much faster than you could climb it.

Rhys- you hear a short roaring sound nearby. Sounds almost like a rocket.

Woot. What's inside the wall of cars? Rylis will set down and continue merrily on her way, ready to shoot anything that moves at her.

Within the wall of cars is quite a scene. The makeshift barrier that you now stand upon blocks off two of the major streets that meet with the Medical Research Center, which is a series of connected buildings that also feature the damaged look of City Center. On the streets between the medical center and the wall of cars, you see cargo loader droids standing dormant, some partially destroyed but most still intact.

There are no bodies in this area, however.

Huh...Rylis isn't quite sure what to think of the lack of bodies.

She's going to hop down off the barrier of cars and pick her way through to the medical center.

Rhys will look for a way through the wall, and as I expect not to find any, look for a good spot to get over the cars.

It is more climb down than hop down, unless you are using your jetpack again.

How is Rhys for Observation + Perception?

Observation 2, Perception 3.

Rylis will just climb down.

Checking along the wall, you find an empty spot atop the wall where a speeder has fallen off, making your climb easier. You start your way up on the wall of vehicles...

Rylis- you see someone climbing over the speeder wall!

Oh, is that so. Rylis is going to go investigate, pistol out, since so far everything around here that's moved has tried to attack her.

Rhys climbs up, still looking around warily.

Rhys makes it to the top of the speeder wall, just in time to see a figure in hi-tech blast armor approaching, walking in the street in front of the medical center amongst the debris and dormant loader droids. Her blaster is drawn.

Rylis- this person you saw isn't a bloody, snarling figure of decay like your last encounter. This one is instead wearing a bright yellow hazard suit. Also- I am ruling that you are wearing a modified helmet, as a breath mask would not sufficiently protect you from the environment entirely.

Rylis is going to assume that this person in the yellow suit must be the person on the ship she met in orbit, but that's not going to stop her from being cautious about this.

"Climb down from there, slowly, and I warn you now - any false moves and I won't be afraid to shoot you," she calls out, stopping below the wall.

"Oh, it'd be terrible to be afraid to shoot someone," Rhys responds, rather sadly not a stranger to the business end of a blaster. "But I don't need to be shot, yet. Are you Miss Tavel?" He climbs down slowly... making sure his gun is loose in the holster, just in case.

"Yet," Rylis says, suppressing the need to roll her eyes, and somehow not surprised that he knew who she was. "Yes, that would be me."

"You were going to shoot me in orbit. Dak Kaliero. Not really a pleasure to meet you, sorry." He finishes his downward climb.
