Yep. Happens every once in a while.


Jak waves Rai over and points to the prints and the data port, ”Looks like someone already been here. Maybe, covering things up or creating a false trail?” He shrugged, ”Lets see if we can access anything with that data port.”


Hmmm, what’s that?

Investigate (9): 2d6 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (3, 4) + 1 + 2 = 10


Jak made his way towards the empty husk and rolled up his sleeves, Lets see what secrets we can find. He lets out a low whistle and commented, ”Not much of her left.


Jak tags along with Rai.


Hmm, 3.5 million credits don’t go as far as they used to, he thought as he whistled aloud. ”Well, it’s got to be done. So no use fussin’ over it,” the former marine states plainly.


Jak scratched his head as he considered Tommy’s proposal. He reached for the contract, ”Why the hell not.” Leaving his mark upon the document.

”I’ll try my hand as the investigative reporter,” he volunteered.


Jak sat back content to let Sir Tommy handle the negotiations.


Jak looked longingly at his empty glass as Tommy exited. He gave a wink to his companions and muttered, ”He forgot to mention if there were any code words for expendable in the conversation.”


Jak lounged in his usual spot, lamenting the end of the booze and perhaps the end of the road for Sir Tommy and the crew.

He sat in silence, breathing the metallicy smelling recycled air, reminding him that the filters will need to be replaced soon. Just one more thing on a long list of repairs. The former marine sighed but saw no easy way out of their dire straits, he was just waiting for Sir Tommy to acknowledge the reality of their situation. Jak wasn’t really concerned for himself as he was still young, well young enough, to give the corps another shot or try his hand as a mercenary. He wasn’t desperate enough to try piracy… yet, but the others, their options were more limited.

The hum of the coms system was a welcome respite from Jak’s internal musings and carried the chance of a new opportunity.


Dotted and deleted.

Connection skills - gambling 1 (Sir Tommy), Heavy Weapons 1 (Rai)
Two extra - melee (unarmed) 1, Investigate 1


@Warren/trawets- Jak and Warren could have served several tours on the same ship. Warren could have piloted a drop ship or taught Jak how to pilot one.


@Rai I think this might work for us.
Term 3 (Jak) You are on the front lines of a planetary assault and occupation.
Term 3 (Rai) You are assigned to an urbanised planet torn by war.

I think this could be the same planet and we were assigned a mission together, some sort of joint operation requiring reconnaissance or stealth? (Although an all out assault would work too). Ideas?


@ Sir Tommy - Jak could have met Sir Tommy at a seedy gambling den. Perhaps, an argument over losses ensued. Sir Tommy and Jak fought together and since then Sir Tommy has used Jak as added muscle from time to time. Or I’m open to other ideas.


My alias is all sorted out. Put a short background in there, if you want more let me know. Also, I will work out connections once the party is finalized.

Also, if you want things formatted differently let me know.

perhaps a connection is Jak has been working for Sir Tommy as a bodyguard for the last few months?? If that sounds good, then you can each take a new skill at 1.

Works for me. Maybe my former commanding officer was a noble or friend of Sir Tommy and recommended him for the job (or anything really, just a thought).


Here is the alias for smiles PC.

I’ll have his crunch and background sorted out in the next few days.
