One very old and nearly useless protocol and tutoring droid coming up....

question is who needs one?

"Who are my charges?"

"Get your rest, tomorrow we will have a six hour assessment of your current level of educational attainment."


How do you have the time???


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

"Grrrrr."


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

Venkru steps rapidly through a kata while Kloh is busy with the computer.


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

"We might as well head back to the ship."


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

"Seems we are leaning toward the smuggling, though Kloh will run a check once we get back to the ship."

Venkru finishes his second fusion reactor.....


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

Yes several. We just didn't tell you about them.

One is in the cell block.....


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

"First one sounds like we could all end up in different places an surrounded by hostiles, the second one is more on our terms, in our ship. A little more information would be a good thing anyone know either organization?"


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

Venkru is more than happy when he gets the large brewed beverages and the distilled and concentrated beverage, he then drops the smaller into the larger and drinks it as the reactor begins to fizz.

He looks at Kloh.
"One of my favorites....at least the beverages are better than the talent."


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

"Two fusion reactors."

Boilermakers....


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

"Sounds like she has already come and gone, rendevous at the ship later."


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

Yeah, yeah, it's an assumption. Venkru expects you to check in soon anyway.

For all he knows your in a back room....


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

@Jaira
"We have just arrived."

"Seems Jaira beat us here, guess she knew where to come."


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

"All the above! What do you have to offer?"


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

After dropping the man to the ground Venkru continues on towards the cantina....

"Anyone want to ask this one anything?"


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

Venkru advances on the thug, thinking he might try some battlefield medic tactics on the man to see what happens....

"Your none to bright trying to waylay people just walking. Did you have scouts who watched us approach? Do you have back-up on the way?....What's the point of your miserable existance?"

Venkru considers his wound which is already on the mend....

Venkru drops the man in disgust.
"Best I've seen so far is the bouncer at the first bar, not sure we will find anyone for our team here."


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

Taking her cues from Venkru thus far and not certain the female force adept fires her blaster at Venkrus attacker hoping to stun him..

Heavy Blaster - 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (19) + 7 = 26 Stun/Fort DC 18


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

Let's go with the assumption I am going to make Venkru a straight
BH Gadgeteer. What skill trees will I have? I still want some decent stealth / unarmed combat stats.


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

Good questions kloh!

Especially about multi-classing.

Venkru concept wise was first a soldier, but building his own armor kinda went tech, and was going towards bounty hunter soon.

So one possibility would be to strictly make him a

(BH) Gadgeteer (A hunter who uses superior tech to get the job done)
but with some levels of (HG) Mercenary Soldier (The most blatant combat specialization)

The planned build was soldier 4, then Scout 1, then bounty hunter...

It looks like this system is flexible enough to get the same character several ways.


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

Anyone find a good web reference for us to use to re-build our characters?


1 person marked this as a favorite.
Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

I like simple. Is there a website that we can reference?


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

"Bet this means there is at least another 15 of these idiots down those alleyways!"

Venkru takes it to the leader unarmed.
"If that's the best you got your in serious trouble!"

Sleen starts guns blazing throwing Venkru off his game to just beat them into submission.....

Unarmed Attack 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (1) + 8 = 9
Damage 1d4 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7
Lethal Damage

Yes blaming Sleen for that 1 rolled to attack!


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

"Nice vibrator, which orifice will you be wanting me to insert it into?....deep oral, back end or right into the front pocket?"

"Which will it be little Suzy?"


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

Iezwall's


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

Venkru stares into the bouncers eyes....
"Fair warning for you, I don't kill unless I get paid or you draw first, but you run your mouth like that to the wrong Mandalian and your stupidity will shorten your life....though odds are good that is what will do you in."


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

Venkru stands up and looks at Sleen and Kloh..

"If we are going to accomplish anything other than staggering drunkedness we will have to look elsewhere."

Venkru approachees the bouncer
"Where would we find trouble?"


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

I understand where you are coming from on the unique challenges of pbp.


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

"Maybe find another Mandelorian I heard they are up for a fight and it is easy enough to have them list their exploits, likely to be grunt though, but at least a durable one!"


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

"So what we have here is a failure to maturate and find a suitable recruit."

Orders more drinks with a wave of his hand....


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

Still around, snowed again.


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

"Either the owner is well connected in the industrial-millitary complex or is paying a hefty sum to the riff raff to keep out the riff-raff. Someone want to see who or what the bouncer uses as a panic button? If legit authorities respond or if local business-men make an appearance?"

"I am not suggesting we make trouble, just thinking of asking."
Smiles at Kloh....

It has been Venkru's experience that such a place is peaceable only due to some threat of force.....


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

"Bantha Fodder is right, if we ever need quantity over quality this is the place."


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

"Maybe we should ask about accomadations. Khol looks like he could use a salt-water bath and kelp wrap, and find out about areas to avoid while we are in port."

Venkru smiles...

"And then go there anyway."


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

Venkru checks the area again looking over the staff and the bartender again, trying to see who maybe skimming a little take home off the top.

"Not the least in a rush, we left a bunch of cages empty in that jailbreak and even with a bunch of information on each one we elected not to include any of them. So recruits have got to be better than what we have passed over before."

looks at the game....
"Maybe that guy on the shattered stars, he appears agile and athletic."


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

Venkru gives the whole place the once over.....

"Judging by the bouncer, not much hope of a big fish in this pond."

Finishes both rounds....
"Maybe time to move on..."


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

No worries every single game on the boards has slowed, so we're not alone in any of that.

I will have limitations in posting over both holidays you mentioned.


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

Venkru checks the scene not looking for those bowed up and stiff like the bouncer, but someone paying attention, responding subtly to his groups arrival yet remaining like a coiled snake......

He raises his hand for the waitress.....
"A round and keep them coming!"

He pulls out a chair
"Great work! Great pay and benefits!"


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

"I bet this place is over-priced!"

Venkru heads into the cantina looking for a bouncer near the door and any indications of trouble in the past....blaster scorch marks, anything broken, etc....

Takes in the full scene of the bar including any shady looking characters.....

Turns back to the others...
"Time for some R&R!"


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

"Course if we appear to be trying too hard it makes it look like we are on a mission. Everyone check in every hour via comm-link."


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

Not usually a fan of splitting up, (especially in pbp) but with com-links it could work fine...

How to split seems the next question.

Jaira and Kloh (seem vulnerable to attacks and arguments)
Kloh and Sleen (too much Nautolan)

Seems either a
Venkru / Jaria or Kloh
and a
Sleen /who ever is left is ideal.

Guess we could send out the droideka with some group.


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

Venkru shrugs for a second, fine with leaving his girl and her cub back on the ship.

"Don't need them to talk up how the job paid well but the spoils were even better."

Looks over the crew....

"We could split up and comm-link in..." Points to his helmet.

"Comm-link range is not great, but the ship is set to receive, record and relay all transmissions from all of our comm-links, giving us better range. When you go somewhere just let us know which hole your crawling into, and whoever spots some blaster-bait first can let the others know to come on and have a look."

Pulling the relay system out of my Azz...FYI


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

So if we found a guy or small team who was well organized but in a pinch (irony would be on Zadora's hit list) and offer them protection to join up....

It's an offer they can't refuse.

What form would active bounties take in the SW universe?
Or specifically in Shanosuke's world?
....I plan to go bounty hunter soon.


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

"Bar is as good a place as any to make a show of success and get some feelers out for local talent."

"I think anyone trying to get in should have to buy in with either talent, targets, technology or an existing team."


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

@Jaria
No worries...

@Shanosuke
We are not there yet. Only way I see it happening so far is either with Nym's blessing or if a power vacuum occurs for some other reason.....


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

"Maybe a fringer or a scout?"


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

"So what are we in the market for? What do we need the most in a new recruit?"


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

Pretty good place to recruit from. Makes sense to me. So we are in the region looking for talent, not on a job. Sounds good to me.

What are we looking to recruit?
.....we have our pilots ( no more hotdogs to try and figure out who is best!)


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

Me too, so far my idea is that we will argue that going after a target (assassination/bounty) and taking other stuff as bonus is way better than taking loot and then maybe attempting to ransom random people killing them, or making slaves.....

In fact we are recruiting for our organization!


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

"Or present ourselves indirectly as mercs and refer to the spoils of war. That way we are potential recruits, but not competetion."


Male Mandelorian Soldier / 4

Sorry to hear that Kloh. I say we should head for the general vicinity and the worst bars around and see what more we can find out about these guys and their base, ships, numbers, and capabilities.

If I forgot something remind me.
