The Circuit (OOC)

By Rabobankrider, in Star Wars: Edge of the Empire Beginner Game

@Shlambate , I'd say about half an hour to do the work with that check.

@Edgehawk , I think a hard negotiation with a boost and a setback will see if you can convince the gang here. @Jonas Shaaf if you want to add anything in the ic you can provide a boost.

@Tramp Graphics , you sure you don't want to take this chance to actually introduce your character to the new character? At the minute Lei just looks like a customer.

Hard Negotiation : 2eA+1eB+3eD+1eS 2 failures, 1 threat

To her this guy looks just like another customer as well. She wouldn’t really have any reason yet to talk to him except maybe to hit on him if he were good looking.

@Jonas Shaaf , an average underworld check could provide the name of one of the more dominant gangs on the planet. Bare in mind though that your character would know it can be risky at times to throw a gangs name around if you're not a member (this may show in additional obligation later on).

@Edgehawk , with that check I think I'm going to say Zara freezes up for a moment and struggles to think of why they'd agree. You can still try another angle of course, and you guys do still have the option of trying to sneak into the yard later if you want.

Haha, @Edgehawk , quick thinking there. I think an average deception with a boost will see to this.

Nope... edited the IC.

@Edgehawk , with the advantage I think I'll say that they don't bother following you two out, so if you do want to do anything around the shack or the yard you do have the chance.

I will have something new for those at the garage in a couple of posts when you guys are fully introduced. :)

Nothing helpful here...

@Jonas Shaaf and @Edgehawk , for convenience sake I'll say you two arrive back at the garage a little after the promotor arrives.

It's up to you guys how you go about this now.

I will try have a post for you guys detailing the upcoming races tomorrow, at latest Wednesday.

@Edgehawk @Jonas Shaaf @Tramp Graphics what do we want our last year story to be?

Injuries? Bad Races? Sabotage by a rival? All three?

None of the above.

Lol, I mean we can play into last year being a bad year I think it’s more fun that way

@Shlambate , that was the intention yeah, I wanted you guys to have the freedom to choose backstory stuff like this.

Ok, this part is going to be down to you guys to sort. You will have to integrate @btmaja into the party, and make a decision on your next race event. As well as the official races, you can also go looking for some underworld competitions if you choose.

That’s up to the racers, I’ll fix your bikes. Make sure they are running pick any races you want.

I am going to be away till Monday I am afraid. This is a good chance to get the party together officially and decide what race you want to do.

@Edgehawk @Tramp Graphics @Jonas Shaaf Pick a race like I said I repair and boost the bikes but your characters race em.

I'm up for the cross-country and long distance races. I'd be up for the drag races, but with only 3 System Strain, I'd blow the engine just getting off the starting line, given that you have to "punch it" to get up to top speed immediately.

Maybe something like a relay? I mean, Cormil will race whatever, even if it isn't a particularly bring idea for him to do so :)

A relay would be a possibility if you guys wanted. I will need a decision however before we can proceed. I can't make the choice for you.

So I think I am going to say that an immediate decision doesn't need to be made (but do not put it off, it will be needed soon). As @btmaja has suggested, the next line of action would be to get @Jonas Shaaf 's speeder back. You do have a lead and a possible location on it thanks to the previous scene, and with the full party it may go easier. I suggest making a plan and I will introduce the next section.

Lei Mie could try and seduce the crooks as a distraction.

Zara has already expressed her wish to enter the Circuit IC if we can swing it, but will enter any of the other races; the suggested relay might be fun, too.

Thanks! Zara is not a charmer...
