Well bummer. I really liked this character, too.


We seem to be missing our GM. His last post anywhere I can find is two weeks ago. Any thoughts?


Jek smirks. "Throw rug, when you do it and start snoring, it's called a nap!"


"Damn tin man." Jek mutters as the odd droid's voice chirped over the comm. "If you're going to insult my ship, Tin Man, I'm going to introduce you to an airlock."


"Hey! Be nice. This ship is a work of art and the only thing protecting you from sucking vacuum. She's a beauty, aren't you, girl?" Jek strokes the comm panel as he overhears Buceda's exceedingly rude mutterings.


"Favors never pay enough. But at least we get to travel in the old lap of luxury here, right?"


"Not a Jedi, throw rug. How many times I got to remind you? Pilot for Jedi, not Jedi." He sighs deeply, dramatically. Flicking a few switches, he brings up a display. "So, remind me again how the Jedi roped you into this bantha hunt."


"Not even close, throw rug. I don't suppose you have a Sabacc deck, do you?"


Jek kicked back in the beaten and patched pilot's seat. The stars flashed by as he idly tapped the computer screen, watching the number fly past. "Ladies and gentlemen, we still have about a day before we hit Nar Shaddaa. So if anyone is bored like I am, feel free to join me in the cockpit for some entertainment. Note: please bring entertainment." He droned over the comm.

I'm still here, and I think my profile is ready to go as far as Skills and Stunts, but I am unsure what to do about my missing aspects from arriving late.

You're welcome to piggy-back off Jek's adventures. That would provide another way we all know each other.


Still here!


If you head over to the Fate SRD here, each skill has a few sample stunts with it. I just reskinned a couple for Star Wars and it worked wonders!


I like the behind the scenes part for Jek. Very cool!

Last chapter for Jek: When a routine piloting duty leads to a stowaway and a hostage situation, Jek gets caught up in a human trafficking ring. His weakness for a pretty face may be his undoing when it's revealed that nothing is as it seems!

Last Aspect:"Never Trust Appearances!"

Skills:
Great (+4): Pilot
Good (+3): Notice, Provoke
Fair (+2): Will, Fight, Shoot
Average (+1): Investigate, Mechanics, Deceive, Athletics

Stunts:
Intuitive Mind Trick: Use Will to persuade a target
Faster, Must Go Faster: You can coax more speed out of your vehicle than seems possible. Whenever you’re engaged in any contest where speed is the primary factor (such as a chase or race of some kind) and you tie with your Pilot roll, it’s considered a success.
I Got a Bad Feeling About This: You have an almost preternatural capacity for detecting danger. Your Notice skill works unimpeded by conditions like total concealment, darkness, or other sensory impairments in situations where someone or something intends to harm you.


Thanks!

As for the ship name...

The Solar Litany?
The Septimus?
The Gallant Wanderer?
The Scorpio?
The Hieronymus?
The Pallid Sloth?


Next aspect:

When a case of mistaken identity sends Jek on a diplomatic mission as the Jedi-in-charge, he has to scramble to get out alive as well as avoid an inadvertent marriage to the Crown Princess of Vergon Prime and a civil war between Vergon Prime and Vergon Beta.

Aspect: I swear I thought I knew what I was doing!


I'll bite.

A starport's library is supposed to be a quiet place, so when Jek slipped in there with the all-too-willing Twi'lek lass, he thought his day was about to get much better. But after she knocked him out with gas, he came to only to discover he was locked in with a bookworm for company.

And that's when the security droids malfunctioned...

Phase aspect: Sucker for a pretty face
