I was sort of waiting to see how things played out in the lobby, and out back for you guys. if Galla wants to join Nir that's cool, it would probably be helpful during negotiations or a firefight

My negotiation is decent, if not great. Would we assume my pistol is in the case?

Couple of quick questions:

Whose turn is it? I always lose track of these kinds of things on a PbP.

Can we grab @Dunefarble's character at this point? I haven't heard or seen anything from our other two backups, and I like the character. We could say that she's either in the car with Gerst and Echo (having stayed in it for overwatch) or went in with everyone else and stayed behind with Nir, or some other introduction down the line.

I'm waiting to see what happens since I failed the stealth check...

Having someone else to help would probably be a good thing, since we could make it 2 per group then.

So that's three approvals. I don't want to just post in the main thread without GM okay, but I'm ready to go.

Yeah your up so awaiting gm approval...

I like the character! Just read the sheet!

Thanks! I think she'll be helpful. (Especially when the blaster bolts start flying)

Do we want to edit intro post so that dunefarb's already with us, or give the character is own into?

How about she was in the speeder, swaps place with you guys and we get on with the story?

sounds good

*raises hand* She. It's a girl character, and I'm cool with just coming into the building. Is the majordomo and the other appointment still there, or have they been lead away by the time I come in?

We waiting for dunefarb to post or the gm?

I think GM, since Echo sorta needs a reply and he hasn't technically approved Dune's character.

Me. Sorry. I will post today, have had a little crisis helping my son with something.

Yikes! Hope everything is okay!

I'm fine with either coming in as the others leave, or having been there and just quiet until now.

Got a post up. It occurred to me though, it might make sense to have Galla meeting the others at the office. That could be why she came late, and it would be an easy way to explain why she's not certain what the full plan is.

Just as clarification... what is the full plan, at this point? Is Nir actually meeting with the Hutt, or are we attempting to dodge the escorts once we get past the lobby.

There is no plan! Nir is just being a distraction, unless an opportunity arises. The other 2 are doing the "stealthy" stuff.

Hah! The quotes are well placed. Can't wait to see where that check goes...

Oh dear I think Galla is going to want to have met you all at the office. I'm not sure she wants her name attached to this 'not plan'. Is there a signal or do we have communication ability to know when the biggest distraction is needed? Making security throw us out could be a good distraction, but so could smoking in the bathroom and setting off smoke alarms.

I'd like to think we'd have commlinks, but I don't know how much we're assuming about basic gear.

Actually, if we roll with the story that our time slot was 'lost', that could be a pretty good distraction. An angry customer in the front lobby is bad for any business, and since Galla wasn't there to protest initially, it would make sense that she wouldn't kick up a stink until she learns about the 'mistake'. It depends on how the stealth role plays out and how much we can communicate with Gerst and Echo.

Nir has a com link and Data Pad, so plenty of communication

And Shard only has a fussy dancer so no communication there

I didn't buy one, maybe Nir can talk to himself over long distances...

For the advantage on my stealth roll, if I am seen could I persuade whoever spots me that I'm supposed to be going to the docks? (or at least have a chance to roll for it)

I suspect there is more to this lass than meets the eye, just as there is for us. Can Nir make a Perception roll to notice anything out of the ordinary other than the fading drug addiction and nervousness. Whats inside her coat?
