Hey guys! Thanks, sw - I've just been run off my feet. Keep starting a post and having to abort to do something else.
I'll be trying to finally get the next post up this afternoon. Sorry all - I should have given a heads up sooner.

Re: IC Session 4.1: A Diplomatic Solution Day 2
Raven and Rashk circulate through the growning throngs. Rashk, you spot several of Boomer's thugs taking bets. It seems unlikely that anyone here is going to be operating another book under their noses and certainly not one open to strangers. Approaching the nearest - an oily looking rodian with dar...

Re: OOC Session 04: A diplomatic solution
@SanguineAngel Was Chibiithii's weapon returned to him? Or is this meant to be a fist fight or something else? This is your DP so I'll let you decide which you prefer: armed (your weapon returned) or brawl. If you have a weapon, so will your opponent but that is all. You can state here or indicate ...

Re: IC Session 4.1: A Diplomatic Solution Day 2
Chibiithii's translator mangles a rough approximation to the room, causing Boomer to look up and study the Drell with some surprise. Abruptly, he lets out a loud and gargling laugh between twiching mandibles. "Now then, I see which of you truly has the gall to take affirmative action! Very well, my ...

Re: OOC Session 04: A diplomatic solution
Hah! I like it. If you flip the DP, he will find your little display most amusing!. He will suggest Chibiithii may earn a free pass if he is able to beat one of his best. He'll make a show of it. Loose, and you will owe him considerably more than 500 credits.

Re: IC Session 4.1: A Diplomatic Solution Day 2
Boomer accepts the credit payments as they are offered up, one by one. When chibiithii's small pouch clinks onto the table, Boomer's head turns slowly, looking and the pouch, then the small Drell, and finally to the rest of the group. He waits for a long moment. When no further activity if forthcomi...

Re: IC Session 4.1: A Diplomatic Solution Day 2
Boomer nods as you explain your supposed position, but his response is far from sympathetic. "My my, you have had a prodigious number of teachers! No, this is not a charity. I don't supply products for free - I am in the business of financial gain. If you have nothing to offer why are you here - I p...

Re: OOC Session 04: A diplomatic solution
Looks like you're good to go, you've got the diffuclty ( ). Whatever angle you go for, I'd suggest trying to make your phrasing consistent with the existing story that you're sort of refugees or outcasts. For the sake of transparency, I'm fairly relaxed about these things but if your story falls apa...

Re: OOC Session 04: A diplomatic solution
Well done guys, you've managed to get yourself a seat at the table, so to speak. Violence may not be necessary after all! I presume you'll now want to look to some Negotiation for a price on those passes. If you want to get straight into it, then an Opposed ( ) Negotiation with should see you throug...

Re: IC Session 4.1: A Diplomatic Solution Day 2
"At last, some progress." Boomer visibly relaxes, steeples his hands on the desk and smiles (as far as you can tell) at Bardax. Bardax feels the tickling presence of Boomer's mind through the fabric of the Force. Gently, he fans the flames of the Quarren's ego - of course, this group of outsiders i...

Okay, so what exactly are you doing? Coercion check? If any of you do decide to brandish your lightsaber then you may add . FYI, Azzranache with your Influence control upgrade you can make a coercion/charm/deception etc check yourself and you do not need a discipline vs discipline check, simply roll...

Re: OOC Session 04: A diplomatic solution
Hey guys, apologies for the slight delay there. I think it's fair to say that Boomer's patience wears thin after couple of "rounds" without any progress but I do think it'd be reasonable to still have a shot here. Things are more difficult but absolutely as kanila says - you may stand a chance or an...

Re: IC Session 4.1: A Diplomatic Solution Day 2
Boomer reclines in his seat - he seems unphased. Though he keeps his hands on the edge of his desk. His pupils dilate to a teardrop as he redards Rashk. He laughs in a low undulating ripple which isn't translated before speaking. "Oh, I see. I am to take it that you represent the Empire in some capa...

Re: OOC Session 04: A diplomatic solution
Hey guys - the most obvious method of assistance you could provide would be simply to translate (manacingly!) for the wookie. I picked Bardax just because he seemed like the kind of character who would be staring at the ceiling during the tirade. Mechanically speaking I am happy for any of you to a...

Re: OOC Session 04: A diplomatic solution
Hello! I would definitely allow an assist. Also, if you take any other actions that may improve your impressivenes/menacingness then that may net you additional boosts. However, just to clarify, when downgrading dice - if there are no Challenge ( )/Proficiency ( ) dice to downgrade, then remaining d...

Re: IC Session 4.1: A Diplomatic Solution Day 2
Your gaze drifts across the features in the ceiling without pause - to all outside appearances exactly as at ease as if you hadn't just clocked a couple of drop-down turret apertures. Behind you, one of Jak's crew shifts his weight. Sitting in his desk, Boomer glares at you all. His hands rest on th...
