Alis' response is brief. She frowns when Zep clasps her shoulder. "I think you have some explaining to do to us, 'Tycho.' And to the Chief. A lot of what you're saying sounds like what that old heap over there was rambling about, light and dark and other strange things. And I don't think I need anything from any Jedi, or former Jedi, or whatever you claim you are." Her expression turns stern. "I don't need anything from the people who failed the galaxy."

Sergeant Zep Rowsdower/Tycho Peartcode:Zep led the three knee-high droids down into the area below their new base where all the books were kept. "HU-33 (red), DU-33 (blue), LU-33 (green)," He addressed them, smiling and placing his hands on their robotic shoulders one at a time. "You guys have a very important task ahead of you. I need you to CAREFULLY record and store all the data in these books. They're old, so be careful with them. I accidentally wrecked a few earlier." He paused, blushing a bit at the embarrassing memory. "I'm hoping you'll all take a more delicate approach to it." He thought about all the times he worked with analysis droids in the libraries on the Jedi Temple on Coruscant. It felt like a lifetime ago and everything was hazy. It seemed to alien to only be worried about the war with the separatists and not worrying about the Emperor hunting him down like a dog. "I've worked with models like you before, when I was a kid. I was impressed then, and I'm sure you'll all impress me now. Have fun, and be careful." He turned and started toward the door, then paused. "Look, I can't begin to tell you how important this data could be. But I also have to tell you how dangerous it could be if it fell into the wrong hands. The ONLY ones with access to it are me, and the organics named Alis, Dem, Gank, Gunnis, and Hrakk. NO ONE ELSE has the authorities to access these files." He smiled and continued walking toward the door. "May the Force be with you." He said before leaving his new droids to their work.

Session 10 Recap Happy tenth session! This game has really become the highlight of my week, I'm really excited to see where your characters go! This session, you:
+20 XP to everyone, and you should all now have a total of 5 Duty. You can apply this to your existing Duty, or take a new Duty called "Rebel Base", which relates to the upkeep and improvement of Temple Base. The detailed mission briefing will be posted here and in Discord later this week. I'm also gonna start putting together some sheets for the various recurring NPCs and locations, now that we've got a wider story arc developing in the sector.  As discussed, there not be a regular session next Sunday -- this means that your new mission will start on September 10th at the normal time I will however be running an optional character building session next week for anyone is interested. This session will take place in the interlude between missions and will probably be more heavily RP-focused than our normal sessions are. We're starting to have some cool relationship dynamics in the party, so this could be a chance to build on that. Drone fucked around with this message at 19:35 on Aug 27, 2017 |

++==URGENT COMMUNICATION==++ +=ALLIANCE TO RESTORE THE REPUBLIC=+ FROM: General Azar Holt, Alliance Sector C-in-C, Tion Cluster TO: Captain Otara Komo, CO, Alliance Signals Vessel Early Bird SUBJ: *FLASH PRIORITY* Abduction and Extraction Mission Captain Komo, It was a pleasure to see you again recently on Thanium, and to meet the extraordinary people you have working with you. Alliance Special Forces are particularly interested in tracking the progress of the team of young operatives you have at your disposal, especially after their impressive acquisition of the mountain facility we are now calling “Temple Base.” I hate to immediately launch into more serious topics, but a highly time-critical opportunity has presented itself in the past 24 hours. We have learned from our embedded cell on Lianna that Lord Ronin Verpalion, until recently Imperial governor of Lianna, has been summoned to Imperial Center. Sources on Imperial Center have confirmed that Lord Verpalion is expected to be named new Grand Moff overseeing the entire Tion Cluster. A vain man obsessed with public displays of wealth, Lord Verpalion has chosen a suitably prestigious form of transportation to Imperial Center: the ultra-luxury starliner Jewel of Coruscant. As a circumstance of this trip, it is expected that his security detail will be relatively light compared to the future protection he will enjoy as a Grand Moff. Unfortunately, the situation has developed quickly, and the Jewel of Coruscant has already departed Lianna on a heading that will take it all the way up the Perlemian Trade Route, with Imperial Center its final destination. The liner’s flightplan is public knowledge, and it will be stopping off at several ports-of-call before reaching Coruscant. These are, in order: The Wheel, Taanab, Ralltiir, and Esseles. Should your team accept this mission, their best chance of getting aboard the Jewel of Coruscant would be at the liner’s first scheduled stop at The Wheel. Due to the liner’s relatively slow hyperdrive, it is scheduled to reach The Wheel in around two days. Alliance Intelligence has had precious little time to formulate a concrete insertion and extraction plan for this operation, but the opportunity is simply too great to pass up. Also unfortunately, Alliance assets in this part of the galaxy (or lack thereof) are unable to support an elite operation. As such, this is a high-risk operation that should be undertaken only by a group that has proven itself capable of thinking outside the box and specializing in unorthodox solutions. Should your team accept this mission, they will be supported by a small replacement crew, to be temporarily assigned to the Sunrise. Once aboard the Jewel of Coruscant, we recommend that the replacement crew temporarily pilot Sunrise on a parallel course to the liner, and standby to respond to the team’s request for extraction. The sector quartermaster has also arranged for attire sufficient to allow the crew to pass as members of high society, should the team deem this necessary. Good luck, and may the Force be with you. MISSION OBJECTIVES:
THE WHEEL PROFILE: Class: Space Station Atmosphere: Type I Breathable Climate: Controlled and pleasant Gravity: Standard Native Species: Majority human, significant and diverse aliens Population: ~15,000 (permanent), ~50,000 (tourist) Government: Neutral Corporation Points of Interest: Crimson Casino, Grand Casino, Golden Star Casino, Bazaar The Wheel is a massive space station located along the Perlemian Trade Route in the Mid Rim. The station acts as a transport hub and luxury shopping and entertainment complex for this part of the galaxy, catering exclusively to a wealthier clientele. Due to the station’s shrew corporate management, The Wheel enjoys a unique status as a neutral free port. By treaty, the Empire maintains no presence on The Wheel itself and is normally forbidden from docking. To compensate for this, the station management pays high taxes promptly and without issue, and willingly enforces Imperial law in its jurisdiction. A small Imperial customs fleet is also based just outside Wheel space, in order to monitor traffic and make sure the station is honoring its agreement. The Wheel is home to a wide array of casinos, entertainment parlors, clubs, and retail commerce. The station’s bazaars boast a wide array of products that cater to every possible need, and local security forces turn a blind eye to many black market transactions. Do not mistake this for a sign that The Wheel is a den of crime -- while it lacks the scum, it definitely contains the villainy, if you spend some effort in looking for it. The station's security force is large, disciplined, and intolerant of disruptive actions. JEWEL OF CORUSCA PROFILE A massive passenger liner, the Jewel of Corusca is one of the most prestigious civilian vessels in known space. It journeys three times each year throughout the galaxy, spanning the Perlemian Trade Route from Quermia all the way to Coruscant. The liner is massive, with a complement of nearly one thousand beings. Its design is sleek and artisanal, with every inch of the ship reflecting opulence and the power that wealth can bring. The liner is not defenseless, hosting a very modest but sufficient array of laser and ion weaponry, and boasts strong shielding. Due to the relatively slow pace of the passenger liner's regular cruises, the ship has only a Class 3 primary hyperdrive, and can be easily outrun by many civilian vessels (to say nothing of the military). Tickets for the one of the Jewel of Corusca’s yearly flights cost an exorbitant amount of money and often sell out quickly, as a trip on the Jewel is seen as a mark of prestige among the ultra-rich. The Jewel’s most recent port of call was the planet of Lianna in the Tion Cluster, which it departed some hours ago, bound for The Wheel. ++==COMMUNICATION ENDS==++ Drone fucked around with this message at 08:48 on Aug 28, 2017 |

Just putting this here so I have in-character knowledge straight in my head. Alis now knows: - That Dem is a former Imperial and is from Corellia, and apparently still has family there. She defected to the Alliance along with a few others after the Death Star and its shenanigans - That Gunnis is also a former Imperial and served aboard one of its starships, and he defected after an incident involving an Alliance cell - That Gank lost his entire "family" due to a run-in with the Empire while working for the Hutts, involving transport of some kind of crystals, and is out for revenge

+15xp all around as usual If anyone is going to take up the offer on "switching" career and secondary specialization XP costs as discussed after the session, lemme know when you're gonna do it. It's maybe not the most elegant solution to the mechanics issues but I think everyone was on board with it. Main thing is: this game rules and I want it to continue being awesome

Sergeant Zep Rowsdower/Tycho Peartcode:"Don't focus on us..." Came his master's voice. "We're gone. But she's still here." He snapped back to the moment, seeing Alis focusing on her breathing and forced himself to smile. "Good job." He said, standing up with a grunt. He could tell she was struggling a little, but he didn't want her to feel like she wasn't doing well. "Keep in mind if you were a Jedi you would have had this drilled into your head for the past eight years or so. But you're getting a crash course, and you're not getting the history of the Jedi order. Keep it up, and don't get frustrated." He wished he had more time to help her get the grasp of the rudimentary Force disciplines, but there wasn't much time. He also wished he was a better teacher. Maybe it was time to stop running from the spirit of his old instructor and ask for help... FuriousAngle fucked around with this message at 19:11 on Sep 17, 2017 |

Since Alis and Zep's dialog on the Sense power was CLASSIC GEORGE LUCAS I was thinking that the first time Alis uses the power we can do a little interlude of her actually learning it. Also, the way I imagined "respeccing" wasn't really respeccing per se. It's like, instead of taking Shadow as a third spec for 40 xp, Alis can take it for 30, and has the option of taking other Sentinel specializations without the +10 xp tax for out of career specializations. Essentially, treating them like universal specializations. Speaking of XP: Alis Varuna Master Sergeant Contribution Rank: 2 Duty (Counter Intelligence): 5 Alis knows that the survival of the Alliance depends upon its ability to hide from the Empire and avoid complete destruction at the hands of its overwhelming military superiority.

Session 14 Recap
+20xp all around because it's the end of the mission, and you've all gained a CR rank (now CR3). This enables you to requisition equipment up to Rarity 6 as part of your reward. Let me know what you plan on getting to make sure everything's kosher. There will also be a minor timeskip between this mission and the next one (roughly 2 months), so feel free to use Deep Roleplay if you want any character interactions back in Temple Base in the meantime. Also please post what your characters are doing over these two months here in the thread, just so I can get an idea. As mentioned, there will be no game on Sunday, October 8th, since I'll be travelling for work. Sunday the 15th is sorta unclear, but I'll keep you updated in the Discord. I'll put up an Alliance debrief post sometime before my trip.

Alis picks up a cybernetic brain implant for a CR3 reward. Bought equipment consisting of reflec shadowskin attachment for her armor, an in-helmet scanner with integrated comlink, and some dataspikes. Not going for the data breaker atm, the spikes do practically the same thing. She also dragged a maimed Keeth Bruh, ISB Agent, into the shuttle for interrogation by Alliance Intelligence, which may (your call) result in a promotion. She keeps her helmet on at all times to obscure her identity during the trip back. Alis will probably be spending the next two months studying the strange book the party retrieved from Lothor, and interacting with the three analysis droids to learn as much as she can about the temple's secrets. Her current viewpoint of the Force is that it will make her a much better spy. She's not too concerned about Light and Dark at this stage; Zep expressed his viewpoint during their initial training but Alis doesn't give him a lot of credit. The only thing that gives her some concern is that using the Force sometimes makes her feel uneasy and cold (this is when I as the player use dark side pips). I think that, based on the outcome and events of the latest mission, Alis is pretty much all-in with the Alliance, and is operating in the very moral grey area of being a Spy. Hearing the Hymn of Alderaan play over the comms before the blast certainly left an impression on her. Killbot fucked around with this message at 06:26 on Oct 15, 2017 |

CR3 requisition: Cybereyes Downtime activities: If this planet is to be our base of operations for a while, we need to know more about what's what. Gank is going to spend the downtime exploring the city looking for anything of value to the base and ongoing operations. If he can find a volunteer or two that know more about engineering to help him better identify what's worth the effort, even better, but he'll go alone if nobody at the base is interested. Side task during the scouting, he's going to make himself some new armor. Basic light armor is cheap and requires a survival skill check and is unlikely to produce anything that's other than "the exact same" as what he's already got, but it'll be his own creation. My hope is to just salvage up the materials rather than buying anything seeing as it's a whole 250 credits worth of "stuff you might find at a scrap yard" to make a light armor suit. Depending on the situation back at base, maybe a sub goal here would be to make multiple suits of soak 2 armor for the base security. e: Downtime Purchases Heavy Blaster Rifle Electrobinoculars Portable Healing Kit Syntherope x4 "Survivalist" Mess Kit Water Purifier Med-Aid Patch x4 Ration Pack x10 Wilderness Survival Kit Tauntaun Pup Tent CN-15 Camouflage Netting (Roll) CN-21 Camoufalge Paint x2 Datapad Nullcaine x4 Azhais fucked around with this message at 16:57 on Oct 22, 2017 |

Sergeant Zep Rowsdower/Tycho Peart's Shopping Extravaganza! CR3 Requisition: Saving Here is Zep's shopping list. He's going to buy some supplies for his expedition with his current week's stipend, then let the rest of his credits accrue. When he gets back at the end of his solo mission to Wild Space he'll buy some additional stuff. All privy to GM approval, but there's nothing crazy.  As for his CR Requisition, he's saving that up for a "Superior" customization for a pistol down the road, which is a Rarity 6 and a credit value of 5000. If the GM doesn't want us to "save up" requisitions I'll figures something else out. In other news, it looks like The Old Republic has a "Zep Rowsdower" body-type!

The upgrade price limits I've been hewing to have been pretty much around 2-3 thousand per level so far, so that'd fit the bill.
