Wait they are Engineers? or we are dressed as Engineers? Because we specifically picked out pilot uniforms hence Zoroku's saying he was a new pilot

I'm a little confused as well, but I looked back and can see where the misunderstanding came from, it was listed that they were uniforms of the spaceport, which could interpreted as pilot's uniforms or engineers, or even cleaning crew for that matter:

It was easy pickings for the jedi to find what they needed, and a quick task to get changed. With their youth and diversity, they did not look out of place in the dull blue uniforms of the spaceport. Fortunately at this time of day the locker rooms are quiet, no one to catch them.

So, to clarify, are we specifically wearing engineer's uniforms, or pilot's uniforms?

@Rabobankrider

So a charter business had their shuttle stolen, and the shuttle did not follow its filed flight plan to Cathar?

@Edgehawk @Jedi Ronin

Shall we visit the charter business' booth/office (possibly after changing to some other discreet clothing)? If we're lucky, they might have more information, even a transponder/homing beacon frequency of some sort.

And Armatta would like to get a dataspike from one of your characters, please. (She can only carry one at a time, so they were distributed across the group.)

@Shlambate, fair point, I hadn't considered the naming thing when I wrote the post. In that case you two should be fine, disregard my previous comment on the engineers uniform. If there is anything you want to do before the door opens you do have a moment, I'll give it a couple of days to sort the ic for the door opening so you have till then if you do want to do anything. 🙂

@Bellona, I should have clarified in the post: The shuttle was heading to Cathar, however it veered into the wrong lane as it left Corouscant. It is however presumably on its way to Cathar. Effectively it was the equivalent of driving down the wrong side of the road for a stretch. The jedi would be aware that the Corouscant airways are notoriously complex, so if they're not an experienced pilot it'd easy to get it wrong.

Cool, so we don't need to deceive immediately. @Mikeyfett7 Got anything you can think of that you might want to do before the man gets to the door?

@Rabobankrider just make sure to fix the IC post when you get the chance before posting a new one

@Shlambate not really. My deception isn't great, so you'll want to take the lead on that, but Silun will help wherever he can.

I don't think we need do more than walk in and try and listen in to the conversation?

He's probably still going to physically come over and open the door for us, which might require some bluffing, or at least a good poker face, but we can just see what happens. He might just nod and go back to his conversation.

@Rabobankrider would Zoroku know of any local Sports teams?

@Shlambate, sure thing, Zoroku has spent a long time on Corouscant so would have picked up a few things.

Do i make a team name up?

@Shlambate, if you want to sure :)

@Jedi Ronin and @Ive Virdas, just want to check you're still with us.

Yup. Just not a lot of time right now.

@Jedi Ronin, no worries, let me know when you're available.

Ive has also let me know they will still be playing but are currently unable to join.

@Bellona and @Mikeyfett7, is there anything you guys want to do at the moment?

@Rabobankrider Actually, yes there is. Would Silun know enough about flight plans in general to be able to fabricate something on the spot? I suspect those would generally be kept on a datapad or something similar, but if he did something like claim he had it committed to memory it would at least be the start of an excuse.

@Shlambate The guard has also left us unsupervised for a second, so Silun could even share the details with Zoroku so that he can back up the unorthodox excuse, or they could come up with a better plan.

Go Ahead

@Edgehawk and @Jedi Ronin:

Do we want to visit the charter agency's office at the spaceport?

They might be willing to part with some useful information, such as the transponder code or even just the name of their hi-jacked starship (particularly if we tell them that we're interested in nabbing the hi-jacker). I think that we need some more information before we can track down the vessel on Cathar (unless Karath has done something conspicuous on/after his arrival there).

We could also produce a flight path with a Destiny point @Mikeyfett7

I think we should go for it. Seems like a pretty good source of information without a lot of difficulty in getting it.

@Mikeyfett7, an average education check or average piloting with a setback will provide information for your ruse. Bear in mind though if they check the computer they may well see through it. A destiny point could mean that by chance your improv matches a current route. You will still need to succeed at the check though.

If you want to try to use the computer unnoticed it's a hard skulduggery check with a setback, followed by an average computers check with 1 setback from time restraints.

My skullduggery is only 3A so it’s gonna be tough to pull that one off and a 3A for Computers as well. So I think the one piloting check would be much easier if you succeed we can spend the destiny

@Rabobankrider We'll go with the piloting check, then. I'm not sure if Enhance or Skilled Jockey are applicable here, although it is a Piloting check. If I need to change the results afterward because they weren't allowed I can.

Piloting check with Enhance power check, one Setback die removed for Skilled Jockey: 2eD+3eA+1eP+2eF 2 successes, 2 advantage, 2 Dark Side

No usable force points again, but it looks like I don't need them. I'm still getting used to the idea of how to spend advantage and additional successes, does anyone have any advice on what might be useful there?

Zoroku's Computers is 1P+2A (just like Armatta's). :)

@Edgehawk :

I got the impression that Andja has better social skills than Armatta or Krios ... would she like to take the lead on asking questions at the charter office?

@Rabobankrider :

What's the name of the charter company, and the name of their ship that was hi-jacked?

Still far too difficult a series of checks compared to just one average check.

@Mikeyfett7, with the success there you are able to bluff a flight plan based on your own piloting experience. With the advantage I'll say it actually heads in the direction of the Cathar system, though not directly to Cathar. If you do want to flip a dp that will match an existing one.

@Bellona, the company is Star-Crossed Galactic Travel judging by its sign, according the the report, the ship was called the 'Pilot Fish'.
