Alchemical Problems IC RPG thread

By April, in Star Wars: Edge of the Empire RPG

Goes back to looking around, focusing on the containment facilities to ensure that would be enough to keep their "passengers" secure for a return trip.

His mind half wanders back to his younger days and the sense of depression and hopelessness that ships gave him due to feeling trapped. "Funny that I now find myself in another cage with a Hutt involved even though I can travel freely," he said quietly to himself.

After assuring himself the facilities would do the job, he resumed looking around the ship, hoping it would start to feel more like a home of sorts.

The guy was hiding something.

Also you uncover some Ottolan brandy... Seems someone had stashed it..

There's an odd blue light in the large room, but any attempt to cross the threshold is met with guns warming up.. Seems someone doesn't want you to go inside.

However there seems to be a puzzle to gain admittance... it ...

Asks :- Flowing through all there is .............

Yorik and Eldrith return to the Meditation Room after checking the bridge to stand behind Cracax. Yorik asks questioningly while peering over his shoulder, "The Force?"

" beep beep beep.... "

" Whats All this Noise... Who answered what... Kids now'erdays Cant an old Man sleep.... thinking everything is the Force... All'right Twolegs... Give me a second... "

You hear the words in your mind but don't see anybody

the guns power down and the lights switch on.... You see a blue cube ... But it seems to be plugged into Some kind of Device

" Its Not the Force .. But eh!! close enough... if your going to be using this ship for 'abit... at least i can be amicable..... Just don't store ...Chip packets everywhere and we will be fine... Stupid Bothan always trying to guess Money.... I had to stun him on a daily basis at one point..... " ( the voice moans for about 15 minutes about, Bothans, Trash... The State of.. the Holonet.... The fact you have legs like your mr fancy pants.... the fact you can wear pants... )

"lets just delay Mr Hutt for a'bit Till we get to know each other more..." It chuckled ". First though Lets get off this rock "

Yorik clapped Eldrith and Cracax on the shoulder and then shouted to the others on the bridge to join them in the Meditation Room when they could. He then carefully entered the room and approached the Blue Cube. "Are you alive? An Artificial Intelligence? I don't understand...?" Yorik asked, "How are you able to speak directly into my mind?"

He looked back to the others..."Are you guys hearing this?"

He looked around the room to see if this was the ship's computer droid speaking via some kind of strange intercom... "Old Man? Are you the Voice of the Golden Hind? Or something else? And if the Force doesn't flow through everything then what does? Neutrinos? Nanoparticles? Molecules?" :huh:

" Alive is such an odd term.... I guess that Ultimately I'm the thoughts and feelings of... Well lets just say... Because I'm to old for long winded Explanations ... yeah sure sort of... I can control the ship... Though it takes a fair bit of focus...

Its Balance... young man... Flowing through all, there is Balance...

I talk like this Because That is how I communicated in life... Or when I had a body... If you could call it that... And yes they can hear me....If i wish it..

You may call Me Sar Agorn.. Or sar.. Just not Boxxy... I hate that!... Stupid Slug calling me Boxy....i'll show him... "

"Okay... just when you think you've seen everything..." he said scratching the back of his head. "I think we "met" the Bothan and the slug you mentioned, though exactly how did a box that can talk telepathically to people and once had a body end up here?"

Yorik smirked at the nickname, "Boxy"... Blue Box... Got it. He spoke respectfully, "Sar Agorn, then, a pleasure to make your acquaintance. I am Yorik Vonn of Dantooine and these two gentlemen behind me are Cracax Rashi and Eldrith Cadrian. Our other companions are the Mighty but briliant Wookie, R'rowlka, his equally crafty companion Shard Ux, and last but certainly not least, the mysterious Durrak Toos. [That's everyone, right? Want to make sure I'm including everyone... I also want to make sure I'm not annoying anyone and dominating the conversations... Message me if I need to tone it down... But, I'm having a great time!]

(it's great just remember I never introduced myself as Zyi but as Shard)

(Nevermind I got introduced as Mr Zyi)

" I'm guessing that.... It is going to be one of those conversations..... " The box projected a rather unique looking individual... It looked like a rather large tree-shaped creature... that was an amorphous mass... around it hovered gas clouds .....

" Dantoine Huh.... I... Well.. He.. It is all very confusing, Spent some time there... hear it is not in very good shape.. Now though. I'll try not to read your minds.."

Yorik's eyes widened in surprise as he struggled not to offend or show fear at the unusual form of Sar Agorn. "Well, sir. I don't believe that I'm acquainted with your species as of yet but I look forward to learning more about you! The galaxy certainly is a vast and wondrous place and I'm pleased to meet you. And the mind reading is unusual but I'm interested to learn more of your ways."

Durrak studied Sar Agorn. He is not of the force but of technology. Still it is interesting that this controls the ship.

"When is this voyage going to start anyway?"

Aye follows Zyi around like an eager puppy, occasionally lagging behind or shooting up ahead to explore the sights and sounds of its new surroundings.

Zyi looks into a few quarters and rooms till he finds the hidden brandy.

Score!

Go on up ahead... He says to the droid.

Zyi doubles back to the main lounge area. He shows the brandy off to R'Rowlka and smiled.

Go ahead, do the honors.

He motions again for the servant droid to come over.

He buddy what's your name again? ... And whose your keeper? Like working here?

Xenology roll I got 2 successes and 2 threats

4eA+3eD : 2 successes, 2 threat [4eA=-, S, S, A] [3eD=-, Th/Th, Th]

Eldrith was taken aback by the image that was projected and thought to himself as he tried to identify what species this creature was showing them.

As Yorik took the liberty of introducing Eldrith he gives a simple flourished head nod in response.

So I've got to ask what happened to the bothan that was here before us? We had a...well you could say he kinda dropped in on us and left before we could get the full story. What kind of work was he doing here? He left quiet a impression on us all to be sure.

You have heard tales of such exotic species... But you thought they were pushed to extinction by the empire.

" Oh Him?.. He went To Some seedy Red Light District on the Evocii planet....I think its called....Narr Something now? . Oh look at me I have too arms and legs arent I special... Lardy Da! " Sar said " I get upto shenanigans and expect a long passed creature to mind wipe everybody,I dont like doing that!... unless its on Sith goons hehehe!"

"KI86 Reporting Sir... The ship is set to take of Momentarily "

You feel the ship rising.. and setting destination

you know theres something force related with the Voice but what exactly.. your unsure. seems he can cloak when you try to connect with him using the force.

KI86... Over here! A few questions if you don't mind...

Zyi waves him over again, unsure if he didn't hear, or didn't want to hear.

So...... Whose your keeper? Which one of those fine fellows? H e says sarcastically.

You like working here, for whoever's your boss?

*fZZZZt...Fzzt* " zaaaaaaaaaandooooo ..." beep the restraining bolt glows " yes I love working here... My" glows even more fzzzt " d...d..d..uuuty is to..oo Seerve"

Loth-cat got your tongue?

... Just as I thought.

Zyi looks mercifully at the droid. His face scrunches up stern, pondering something.

Ah what the Kriff!

His expression relaxes and a friendly smile replaces the seriousness of a moment ago.

Hold there a moment...

He gets up and in a flurry of activity finds a fork and knife, a thin piece of hard metal wire and the electro-mag from his backpack.

Hold still, this shouldn't hurt... Then again I'm not a droid soooooo.... Maybe that's just wishful thinking... Either way...

He sticks the wire in a small groove of the restraining bolt then zaps it with the electro-mag, and attempts to pry it off.

(Should I roll a mechanic's check?)

( yeah easy difficulty so 1 purple )

(how this happened I'm not sure)

Mechanic's check w/ 2 bonus dice from electro-mag : 1eA+4eP+2eB+1eD 1 failure, 8 advantage
a--.png p-a-a.png p-a-a.png p-a.png p-a-a.png b--.png b-s-a.png d-f-f.png

(If I could spend the advantage on it being disabled but still attached, if not I'm gonna need a few suggestions on how to spend 8 advantages haha this is a crazy roll)

( roll a force dice... If you get white pips you succeed but suffer some strain... if you fail.. the thing pops off but for some reason the droid just collapses on you... pinning you to the floor until you get aid to pick it up.)
