====== Piratical Problems ====== ===== Session 11 Intro ===== **5 months after landing: (yy.mm.dd: 01.11.30)** The party has been released, and is free of any charges (for now). They now owe a month each of community service to pay for the ship they "confiscated" from the bounty hunters who were clearly up to no good (because they should have given the ship to the Council... "frontier justice" has it's limits even here). * Obligation Roll: 25 - Favour to Djinn Monka (Vreck) ===== Session 11 Results ===== ==== Recap ==== (Session A) After some shopping in town, the SoFA returned to their base. Varad revealed he used company credits to clean up the bounty hunter mess and clear their names, so funds have been a bit tight. They also discovered that the company float was missing, though no one saw any sign of a thief. Maybe it's just lost. Vreck & Arron collected the fulsgold (acid) from the caves and had a close encounter with a tree in the storm. It had been cut, and they found a vibroax left behind, and fended off more crazy mouse droids. Varad & Jern spent their evening crafting armour. The next day (01.12.01) Varad & Arron headed to town on Jure, and Jern brought back the rental speeder (not realizing Adi had hitched a stealthy ride). Vreck stayed behind and discovered a cure formula (but it will take 4 days to manufacture). In town, Jern had lunch with Satchel Paige, and agreed to her business pitch - she will build him a high quality mechanic's shop for 5000 credits (on loan). Varad & Arron searched for Director Corto. They went to Avaron and got an appointment for 4 days from now, but while Varad went over to the Council, Arron staked out Avaron, and followed Corto to Porko's Slop Shop. When Varad heard the news, he rushed over and crashed the lunch break (getting addicted to Gamorrean mints in the process). (Session B) They had a good discussion about the ECC, and discovered that Corto had hired them to investigate the constant sabotages Avaron had experienced, and gave more background on the situation. Jaleel was sent to the ECC to be monitored and to potentially draw out Avaron's enemies after being convicted of sabotage. After Corto left, Varad was ambushed by a twi'lek bounty hunter who knew his real name, and was there on behalf of Bosatto the Hutt, head of the Gorensla Kajidic. Varad tried to escape, losing his arm to the hunter's disruptor pistol - but Arron and Adi jumped in and distracted the enemy long enough for everyone to get out alive. After Varad spent a night in the hospital's bacta tank, and the others recovered at home, they headed out to the ECC HQ to see if they could uncover the truth of the whole situation. When they arrived, they discovered pirates had taken over the ECC base. Vreck and Jure scouted out the area, while Jern rigged up a long-range comm to overcome the stormy weather's interference. They called for backup from Vreck's ranger squad and Corto sent out a ship as well. While Varad waited with Adi for the rangers, the others stormed the ship and (mostly) cleared it of mouse droids, disabled the engines, and interrogated the droid pilot. The rangers cleared out the pirates from the rest of the compound (with a bit of help from Varad and Adi), arresting Jaleel in an epic flanking attack. ==== Rewards ==== Experience Points * 7 XP for finding the fulsgold poison cure * 3 XP for interrogating Corto successfully * 5 XP for discovering the Gorensla agents * 2 XP for shutting down Porko's Slop Shop (the colony is healthier for it) * 6 XP for clearing out the pirates * 2 XP for securing the pirate ship = 25 XP (+3 for journals) Obligation: * +2 Mechanic Shop loan (Jern) * -1 Adrenaline addiction (Arron) for driving fast during a storm (rolling a `tr`) * +1 addiction to mints (Varad) * -1 Family (Jern) for inventing flashfruit (fame): significantly more to be removed at the end of this month once the payments start arriving * -5 Favour to Djinn (Vreck) for discovering a poison cure Credits/Other: * Mechanic's shop being built * Avaron security credentials (Varad) * Official ownership of the Jumpmaster (just needs to be fixed) * Engraved tools (Jern) * Vibroax
