The Shadows Mark OOC

By killakan, in Star Wars: Force and Destiny RPG

Sorry guys, I don't have access to my notes for another 2 days, I either make this stuff up on the fly or you have to wait until I'm home.

That charm check will inflict 2 Strain on the target (Naughts Presence + Success - Targets Discipline) [i think he has 2 Discipline!] it's a method I have used in the past if it's ok with everyone.

I'm OK waiting a couple of days. The weekends are kind of hard for me anyway.

Ok, crazy couple of weeks

My wife and I own and run a small retail store and online shop. In the last 2 weeks we have had 3 trade shows(5 days total of our time) and a mumprenuer convention this last weekend with associated awards night. Between traveling to the trade shows then this weekend spent with 3 kids in a cool hotel (and blowing a stupid amount of money on fun/food) I have had very little time to get on here to keep up, let alone post regularly. I regret not letting you all know earlier, thinking i would have time to read and post, so i apologise for that. But crazy time is over for now, so i can get back to regular posting again.

But I'm back, just like I said Id be back, you can leave now and beat the traffic... or stick around and beat your meat!!
Sorry 90's pop punk flashback there. seriously though i'm ready to Gm some more.
Its NPC action time i believe in the social encounter, whilst the NPC's around the ATST are going to need to do something too. Ill IC in the next little bit.

Adin is attempting Negotiation, his dice pool is AAPP with the ability to ignore 1 setback. Targeting Larik since Imperials only address Humans in such situations :o

Dificulty will be Lariks Negotiation skill, DDDC.

Ill flip a DP for this, ill asume your not desperate to flip one back? if so ill reroll but for now here is his check:

Lets negotiate those slaves : 1eA+3eP+3eD+1eC 5 successes, 5 threat

ouch!
8 Strain on Larik! (4+5-1) with 5 threat for you to spend!

Can I use the threat to inflict 5 strain back on him?

If not, I'll upgrade my next check against him and us the other two advantage to put a floating boost out there.

Sure, 5 strain it is.

Cool. So who's up then?

Ahh, Initiative track would be useful! It's a PC next.

DDC to charm him?

Yep.

Here's my roll, I'll edit this post in a bit to let you know how I want to spend some stuff.
Don't BS a BSer : 2eA+2eP+2eD+1eC+1eF 3 successes, 1 advantage, 1 Light Side

Plus I get two more advantage from Lalam's loom, I believe.

EDIT: Using influence to create feelings of friendliness in the lead guy and the pip to activate the base power inflicting a strain on him and using the 3 advantage (1 from roll, 2 from loom) to heal 3 of my own.

So if my math is right I do 6 more points of strain to him (4 presence+3 success-2 his discipline +1 influence). Yeah?

Yes, 2A from Loom.

Are we supposed roll initiative, or did I misunderstand?

I think we did already.

EDIT: Yeah, we did initiative back in posts 2308-2311.

I think it would be a poor choice for me to act right now, as Coercion might have the opposite effect...and might undo the good that has been done

You know, up until this morning, I completely forgot about Naught having that Influence upgrade to apply her Force Rating. At any rate, since she is talking up the value of the "service" they can provide in exchange for weaponry, I'm thinking this is more of a Negotiation check. Will the officer be opposing it with Cool or Negotiation?

Opposed to Negotiation, AAPP is his pool

Alright so the other two NPC groups will act now, then back to the top for everyone.

Felix the big tough is going to Intimidate Larik, the Minions will "assist" him by raising their rifles and all targeting Larik...

His Dice pool will be PPPB, Lariks Discipline is AAP, so a difficulty of DDC, then upgrade once for Nobody's Fool:

Pool is PPPBDCC, any other dice to add? or upgrade?

Lucked out on this one:

Stick to flattery : 3eA+3eF+2eD+2eC 2 successes, 3 threat, 2 Light Side, 2 Dark Side
Lalam's Loom should negate two of the threat, and I'll apply one light side point to negate the third. The other LS pip will add a success so I can bring more strain.

Three threat as you realise Felix is not so flattered by your words, in fact he finds you vile.

Adin suffers 4 strain from you, as he is slowly beginning to agree to your terms

Nope, that looks right to me. Do your worst. Haha

Puny Weakling do as your told : 3eP+1eB+1eD+2eC 3 successes

5 more strain for Larik as the man mountain uses his imposing figure.
Ill IC after the two of you.

I made the IC post before I made the check, so that's good to go.

LoL, i hadnt noticed that! yep ill IC now

Queg says that the tension is so thick, it should be cut with a knife. And by knife, he means light blaster cannons, and by cut, he means shoot things until they blow up

Hmm, shall he be attempting said tension cutting now? Ill quickly set the scene for you in IC now

Lord. I'll be needing to make a Gunnery check...thank goodness I dumped everything into Agility
