Arca is not at all stealthy... Arca Gavalun; Tales of the Old Republic; Stealth check: 2 Failures, 0 Advantage http://nemeses.xyz/gaming/ability/a--.png http://nemeses.xyz/gaming/ability/a-a.png http://nemeses.xyz/gaming/difficulty/d-f-th.png http://nemeses.xyz/gaming/difficulty/d-f.png

That makes it unanimous, as there's only the three of us playing. We've lost all of the other players over the years.

I say we go straight to that hangar where the lifeforms are.

I second this motion.

Thank you.

I'm assuming that my fellow padawans were likely looking over my shoulder or at least close enough to see what he saw, so I'll skip posting IC a repeat of what the GM just told us.

Arca locates an accessible computer just around down the leftmost hallway. Aided by the group's trusty astromech, he slices into the system to try to find signs of activity within the complex. He thinks to himself that it's disturbing how quiet it is here. Something feels off. Arca Gavalun; Tales of...

Can we check the computers for signs of activity?

If we can, then I'll need a difficulty for Arca's check.

Guys, there hasn't been any progress in the IC in over 3 weeks. I do hope it's not because you're all waiting on me!

I have never had roommates when not in VA transient housing. Not since my college days nearly a half-century ago. After I moved to Cape Canaveral in Mar. '20 I was delivering pizzas for Papa John's. I lost that job mid-September of that year. I burned through my savings during the height of COVID an...

@ShadoWarrior that whole situation sucks. I'm sorry to hear about it. I hope things go well with the surgery. Because of my negligent PCP, the ortho doctor informed me last Friday (May 5) that I missed the "window" for having surgery done. Too many weeks had passed (5 as of the time I met with her)...

no rush, but does anyone have a force power, or tech, that can quickly scan for life forms on this floor? Arca does, but the range is limited to short (and that's including his range upgrade that extends it from close). This is one of those situations where a tech-based scanner (such as the GP scan...

My injury is much more serious than I'd thought/hoped: I found out on Friday, after more x-rays, that my knee is going to require surgery. There's too much damage for it to properly heal on its own (the kneecap is out of position) so they're going to have to insert pins. Wonderful. My VA doctor was ...

Hope everything goes well for you in your recovery!

Thank you. It's painfully slow, pun intended. It's both too slow and too painful. My whole life until this month I never broke any bones, so I've had no prior experience with just how uncomfortable this shit is.

I'm going to be "on the mend" for at least several more weeks. Please don't hold anything up on my account.

Sorry, been distracted the past two weeks... I tripped late Sunday night of Apr. 2 and fractured my right knee (in 2 places), as well as fractured my left wrist and sprained the hell out of that elbow. Oh, and came very close to breaking my nose when I face-planted into the concrete. Spent 6 hours i...

Arca directs their astromech to bypass the security lock on the front door.

Hard with 2 setbacks for computer to bypass the lock, daunting with no setbacks for skullduggery.

Orbital Construction Facility Zeta-Phi-Thirteen, colloquially known as The Yawning Maw by the locals, due to its massive, gaping forge that feeds on space debris and asteroids like a massive vacuum. It orbits the nearby planet Axum when not refilling its forges. Currently it is in system, although ...

ship manifests on the days you know they would have been here...

I need the difficulty to roll against for:

...digging into the Anaxes orbital control records to find out what ship(s) arrived that day and time and where said ship(s) landed (orbital station, if there are any, or somewhere on the planet).

Arca replies, "Many beings are weak-minded and can be manipulated with the aid of the Force into being more agreeable or changing their beliefs, at least for a short period. She will be fine, and won't realize that anything out of the ordinary happened to her. Well, other than meeting Jedi, which in...

Arca steps to the front of the group, connecting with the Force, and subtly does a handwave while saying: " You should listen carefully and be open to what we have to say. " He simultaneously focuses on her surface thoughts. (Influence + Sense w/control upgrade) Arca Gavalun; Tales of the Old Republ...

Arca responds, "We're expected, any delay in landing will make them nervous and put them further on their guard than they already are. We should behave 'nicely' to start with. We can always choose to become 'less nice' and more unpredictable as circumstances may warrant."

Damn, I'm so sorry to hear that your kids (and by extension, you) are having such rough time.
