The second minion switches his blaster to 'stun', not wanting to mortally wound his superior should a shot go astray. He aims and shoots from short range, probably doing more harm than good.

Re: IC: The Holodisk
BA takes two blows that may have fell a normal being. The first henchman strikes with deadly accuracy, hitting BA in all the sensitive spots.

With BA now engaged with the lightsaber user, Anjali shifts her aim to one of the flanking attackers, but her shot is a clean miss.

BA swings the axe back around, hoping to land another solid blow.

Re: IC: The Holodisk
The lightsaber-wielding foe turns to face his opponent at the last second. The red lightsaber rises up to deflect the mighty blow from the vibro-ax, fracturing part of the vibro-ax. The majority of the impact makes it through the attempted parry.

Re: IC: The Holodisk
BA Swings the axe down, through the lightsaber. Using every bit of strength he can muster, he pushes the blade as deep as he can into the lightsaber user's chest.
That's for my home, you Sith scum!
The axe buries itself in the chest with a wet squelch. BA lets go of the now damaged axe and lets it and the formerly living enemy crash to the ground.
He rips off the now destroyed armor from his torso, and raises his fists as he turns to pursue the rest of the assailants.

Re: IC: The Holodisk
The two henchmen are shaken by seeing their master fall gruesomely before them. The one on the right exclaims unconvincingly, "I'LL GO FOR HELP!!" He turns tail and runs (Despair!!) out onto the landing pad extension outside.
The left-most henchman doubles down and shoots with determination (2 Adv). Of course, he targets the being who just felled his master. His aimed shots miss and the man ducks behind some crates as he makes his way towards the open door leading to the inner hallway.
He darts from obstacle to obstacle, trying to evade ranged attacks. (+2 ranged defense)

Re: IC: The Holodisk
"We've got to get a move-on. That was some serious aggression for a handful of slaves!" The group looks on as the last two minions make haste out of there. One flees out to the landing platform and sees that he is cornered. Instead of climbing (slowly) up the rope he came down on, making him an easy target, he instead pulls out a hook and line from his utility belt and frantically hooks it to a post and jumps over the edge of the landing platform to somewhere below. He is out of sight for the minute.
On the fallen adversary there is: a lightsaber (6D, Crit 2, Breach 1, Sunder), a holodisk communicator, a comlink, three credit bars worth 1,000 each, armored clothing, and some personal effects like a belt and jewelry.
There is hardly time to observe and collect the obvious when the last minion makes a line for the door and darts outside. That moment is quickly followed by the sound of two blaster bolts shooting across the open frame. Stepping forward is a human man in Republic armor with a blaster rifle.

Re: IC: The Holodisk
"Cornelius!!!" exclaims Monty from half across the hangar.
"Thought you folks could need some help!" He has administered 'cold justice', so to speak, upon a fleeing unlawful, criminal.
Station security comes in close on his heels. Just a handful of them. "Nothing to see here!" Cornelius says forcefully. "Worthless riff-raff trying to jack a ship." The guards look at each other waiting for someone to give approval to those orders. "I said.... NOTHING TO SEE HERE!!" he hollars. "Look! Dark cloaks, armored clothing, and blasters! Spread out. If you find any more like THESE (he nudges the body with his boot), shoot on-sight. GOT IT??!!"
The men look inside the doorway at several identical outfits, look at each other, and nod their heads in agreement. They comlink into HQ and begin to give the said description to everyone on the base.
{{Anyone want to chime in? Role-play?}}

Re: IC: The Holodisk
With relief, Anjali slumps forward a bit on the crate in front on her, but still keeping her eyes up. Cornelius was a welcome sight, for sure. Anjali calls out to him: "Hey, did you find the guy who went behind those crates over there? I lost track of him."

BA trudges over to the window to look down, to see if he can still see the guy.
I'll look for him.

Re: IC: The Holodisk
Cornelius points ahead of him on the ground outside in the hallway. "He didn't get too far." he says with a smirk.
BA looks over the edge and see the man just a little ways down the skinny rope he used from his utility belt. (Failed athletics check) He is only about 6 meters away.The fall would be medium range. He is the one who failed hi Fear check.

Re: IC: The Holodisk
"Those sleemos tracked us here somehow. Maybe this guy can tell us how." Anjali keeps her blaster out and aimed at spot the last henchman went over the edge, where BA even now works to pull him up.

Re: IC: The Holodisk
BA yanks the henchperson up, banging them up a little along the way. He drags him to the center of the room, so he's covered by Cornelius and Anjali.
Time ta talk.
then BA turns to the corpse of the sith and starts to rifle through it. He pockets the lightsaber and starts slowly pulling the armor off of him.
He looks sadly at his damaged axe.

The man is still frightened, but has a certain resilience to him that comes from his training.

"Yes, let's start with how you tracked us." Anjali's eyes bore into him....

BA twirls the lightsaber around heads back over the guy, the slightly beatup armor of their dead commander in his other hand.

"Trackers....the trackers in the neck of those women act as homing beacons, to a distance."
Anjali senses genuine fear and reads his thoughts as being exactly what he is saying.

Re: IC: The Holodisk
Gaining a bit more confidence, the captured enemy speaks up. More confidence because you haven't killed him (yet) and he's thinking he may survive this encounter. The fear is perhaps wearing off.Doctor Who wrote: ↑Fri Feb 12, 2021 2:33 amWhere were they hired? Why are they willing to work for someone who carried out what amounted to a terrorist attack a while ago?
"Hired??? I JOINED UP!! Who wouldn't want to learn from the Sith? Gain power, prestige, wealth....access to entire the galaxy! Learn to TRULY control The Force. It is a path forward that many envy!"
Re: IC: The Holodisk
Anjali inclines her head back toward the dead Sith, "you mean powerful like your dead friend over there? Do you think his power has grown now that he has left the land of the living?", she retorts. "What was their plan for those slaves? Why bother coming after them?"

"Kor'al's absence will leave a vacuum, a void that will be filled by another!" he says optimistically! He pauses, fantasizing of 'what could be!'
Breaking out of his momentary trance, he replies, "Information. They have information. Events they have experienced could be valuable. Knowledge they possess could be dangerous."
