Tessrah goes over sensor data sending telemetry to the pilots. "gentlemen it gets a bit loopy up ahead I recommend you look at what I'm sending you."

Tessrah felt somewhat useless she was not a ship person so her small help was all she could offer. Suddenly a thought popped into her head. She hailed Arda base.

"Arda base please come in this is padawan Tessrah, what is your status? "

With the sudden jolt from the ship colliding with something, Soryn loses his footing and smacks hard into one of the bulkheads of the corridor. Righting himself, he shakes off the impact and assesses himself. "No cause for concern, though I am now slightly more convinced we're not going to have a smooth landing," he mutters, before calling out, "Dera, are you alright? I get the feeling we will need to be somewhere more secure come the cras... Err... Landing... Of this vessel. Does anyone need assistance on your side? Mine seems clear thus far."

Dera slams into the wall as the floor moves in an unexpected direction. "Nobody here!" she calls back. "I'm fine." Slightly bruised, yes, but unhurt. She continues moving down the hall checking rooms, though notably faster than before. "'Evasive maneuvers' my foot," she mutters to herself as she presses the next button. "'Evaded' right into whatever that was."

"Arda base please come in this is padawan Tessrah, what is your status? "

"Commander Tessrah, this is Arda Base, Commander Quirno speaking. Shield's holding, but they caught us all set up for training operations- We're reconfiguring the fighters now, but we cant come out to get you for at least quarter hour. Best if you can make it here yourself."

The commander didnt sound like a clone, more like a Duros, but he certiantly wasnt a jedi padawon.

Tessrah felt somewhat annoyed. "received Arda base, are you able to hold we counted several ships bombarding your location. Do we have the ability to equal our defense?" she turned to the commander "sir make haste to Arda base they say they need us I am not sure if we are hardened enough for this conflict just yet your crew may need to assist in air defense once you let us off."

Tessrah clicked over to internal comms "Arda base is currently in need of the jedi crew. We must disembark as soon as the ship lands please make haste to the loading ramp once you have finished what you can you help the crew."

When the last room also comes up empty, Dera turns to Soryn. "All empty on your end too? I'm going up to the bridge after all, then." She turns and makes her way to the bridge as quickly as she dares, with all the careening around the ship's doing.

Tessrah felt somewhat annoyed. "received Arda base, are you able to hold we counted several ships bombarding your location. Do we have the ability to equal our defense?" she turned to the commander "sir make haste to Arda base they say they need us I am not sure if we are hardened enough for this conflict just yet your crew may need to assist in air defense once you let us off."

"First lesson, Commander, you can put a bigger shield on something that doesnt have to move. We can hold off both Seppie Frigates' guns long enough for reinforcements to come if that's all they use- we're more worried about a ground assault to take out the shield generators."

"Not sure how we're supposed to help take out fighters, Commander," the captian replied in turn. "They didnt give us one of the up-gunned Counsulars just the older diplomatic model- all we got is harsh language. Didnt expect this to be a real warzone."

She turned to the commander "very well once you land get your boys loaded up we are going to need all the trigger fingers we can get on those clankers. I expect that you may find harsh language rather effective long as you don't mind popping off a few blaster bolts." she gave a warm smile to him. She turned to the door to head down to the loading bay it was time she made herself a little bit more useful. "Shad I wouldn't mind a dance partner once the music starts."

Dera enters the bridge and glances around. Where's—no, that doesn't matter. She makes a beeline for the pilot and co-pilot, walking up between their chairs. "This may feel strange," she informs them. "Don't panic." Then she closes her eyes and concentrates.

Battle Meditation, assisting the pilot and co-pilot: 1eF 1 Dark Side

Battle Meditation, again (I forgot I had two Force dice): 1eF 1 Dark Side

Hot on her heels comes Soryn, feeling the unmistakable pull of the Force surrounding each of the Padawans, and more so Dera as she begins to do something. Everything seems about as well manned as it can be, to the Pau'an, not that he is very familiar with the crewing of ships. It appeared that the Togrutan, Tessrah, was an able leader and happy to take charge of things, if not a little too eager to be charging into a blaster line. "Perhaps it would be best if you had more than one 'dance partner', when facing numerous opponents? I feel a little ill at ease standing by and watching combat. Plus, I know very little of operating spacecraft. May I assist your endeavours on the ground, Padawan Tessrah?"

Tessrah smiled. "Of course I would love to share the floor with all comers. I will undoubtedly have to keep my feet lively if we have a few uninvited guests down there." she pulled out an ornate light Saber from under her coat and twirled it a few times in her fingers.

Hearing the call to arms over internal comms Kor replies "Tessrah you might need a brick wall out there with the sheer number of Clankers at the base mind if I join you. Vyrr I believe you're the only one better than me on this ship at fixing starships you mind keeping her together till we land?" Kor begins to make his way to the loading ramp.

"It's becoming quite the party," Soryn exclaims, pleased that the slightly fractious group is coming together in the common cause of survival. "Dera, do you think you can handle things here? I would offer to assist with piloting, but a Hutt has a better chance of jumping than I do of helping to land this craft."

Dera doesn't turn to look at Soryn. "Yes. We'll be fine here," she half-mumbles, most of her attention focused on holding together the link between her and the two pilots.

Co-Pilot's roll:

Next turn's Battle Meditation roll:

(Spending the light side pip, obviously. +1 success to co-pilot, pilot, and whoever came over to plot course.)

As the others scrambled to take over the controls of the weapons and repair the ship, Nimara instead turned his attention to the sensors. While they'd need to plot a course, and the like, they'd also need someone keeping an eye on the fighters. While Pouncer sat by his side, Nimara scanned the sensor panel, looking out for any sign of the droid ships.

"Coming up on a double hairpin, we'll have to slow for that one."

"I got an idea. Hold on!"

"Dammit Jenkens! I said..."

The frigate popped out of the canyon momentarally, rolling upside down with the surfacce of Arda I mere meters from the top of the bridge. veering off to the side, the corvette crossed over to the second switchback, skipping both hairpin turns as it rolled back upright into the canyon.

Unfortunately, the moment's exposure was enough for the pursuing bombers to get a lock,and a salvo of missiles followed the frigate back into the canyon.

Missile salvo (1 upgrade from jamming,2 setback from piloting advantage): 3eP+1eC+2eS 1 success, 3 advantage

None of the missiles struck the canyon wall, and they follwed the corvette through several turns before reaching the ship.

There was a sound of metal striking metal, but no explosions... and then a small droid brandishing buzzsaws peaks around the edge of the viewport, gripping the outside of the ship as it hurdled through the canyon.

As the others scrambled to take over the controls of the weapons and repair the ship, Nimara instead turned his attention to the sensors. While they'd need to plot a course, and the like, they'd also need someone keeping an eye on the fighters. While Pouncer sat by his side, Nimara scanned the sensor panel, looking out for any sign of the droid ships.

Rolling for Vigilance check. I'm assuming this is difficulty 2. Given that Nimara is aware that the fighters are in pursuit, it shouldn't be a high difficulty anyways. I'm not sure if I should add boost dice due to the sensor panel, so I'm omitting that for now.

Vigilance Check: 2eP+1eA+2eD 1 success, 1 Triumph

There is 4 hyena bombers and 8 Vultures at short range (outside laser range), keeping pace with the republic corvette. In addition, you detect signs that the frigates above are preparing to land, and by chance you get a sensor window straight into one of their hangars where their forces are marshaling. You would need a hard warfare check to make sence of the data yourself, but you've got it recorded to show others.

Shad moves to the navigatipn console and starts plotting a course that will hopefully help them

Astrogation Check (plot course): 3eA+2eD 3 failures, 3 advantage

The best you can offer is a blue to the copilot (next roll) and a blue to the pilot (any roll), but not remove any blacks. (this does not count as an assist, sosomeone else can aid them as well.)

Walking down the corridor Tessrah meets up with Kor. The sudden jolt of the ship sends her off balance toward Kor. Her hands shoot out looking for something to grasp grabbing Kors collar. A second jolts sends both of them to the floor. Kor notices that Tessrah is blushing as her lekku's strips turn a few shades brighter. Kor feels in his hand something very soft as he's directly on top of Tessrah his right hand keeping his balance on her chest. "Ummmm" was the only thing to escape Tessrahs slightly shocked and embarrassed mouth as she was obviously pinned to her back by Kor's larger frame.

Kor caught completely off guard speaks up "Tess if I can call you Tess you can't have thought that grabbing onto a cerean when losing your balance is the best of ideas, I have enough trouble balancing my head and my ego." Kor stands and helps Tessrah up. "I think we should figure out what hit us. You ok there your blushing." Kor readies his saber.

Knowledge Warfare: 3eA+1eD 3 successes, 1 advantage

"My best guess we've been hit by some buzz droids" looking at Tessrah with a grin "ready to fight!"

Dera narrowly avoids being slammed into the pilot. When she's regained her balance, she puts a hand on each chair and again reaches out with the Force, touching the minds of those at the various piloting consoles. She lets herself become a conduit for the link she's established, allowing the pilots to better work in tandem.

Reposting the Battle Meditation roll, for clarity:

Battle Meditation: 2eF 1 Light Side, 1 Dark Side

As Kor helped her up she felt very light as he brought her to feet. She looked up with her big blue eyes. Tessrah blinked several times her blushing even more pronounced. "y-y-yes" she stammered a bit. She heard what he had with the high pitched whine of saw blades. She noticed that her hand had been clutching his for a little longer than she realized. She drew it quickly back looking a little more awkward.

Knowledge warfare

: 3eA+1eD 2 successes, 1 threat

"umm, right yeah buzz droids. " she activated her lightsaber a bright Neon green blade came forth."yes, droids, slicey slice." she held her Saber in a reverse grip. Using her monitrails she listened to where they were coming in.

"Please excuse my interruption," Soryn says to the pair as he strides into the room, another bruise no doubt forming from where he bounced off a bulkhead after the jolt. The ship continues to shudder and the sound of metal groaning under the forces of gravity is a clear reminder they are still very much in danger. "I was hoping we would land before having to engage in combat, but I believe the droids that are currently on the exterior of the ship are ready to make their way to the interior with no real regard for our flight plan. You two are trained in which forms?"

Tessrah closes her eyes and reaches out with her senses. "they are over there." she walked a few meters to the sound.

: 1eP+2eA+1eB+1eD+2eS 3 successes

As Soryn enters Kor turns to notice "Shii-Cho if your curious, which should help against the buzz droids there is never usually just one" Kor ignites his Lightsaber the golden yellow blade shines brightly. Kor continues to follow Tessrah's lead.
