[IC] Gemeris Station [Everyone]

[Jendu Verbenti]

Dez replies to Jendu. "I think the shuttle may no longer be ours by the time these droid are done,but I suspect they will not turn down the aid either"

Nods.  "Yes, I'm sure they would rather take possession of an undamaged Shuttle than one that looks like it's been through a meteor shower."

Jendu then says to Korstyn and the two other men (whom I can't remember their names), "I believe we have some things to talk about." 

[DM Vitkyng]

In the end both captains seem interested in doing a trade with you, but they have two very different ships and therefore different offers,  D'han invites you to take a tour of the Bulwark (the  Wayfarer, with the large orange cargo container), and Narrukh  invites you to tour his ship, the Rimward Bounty (the GTROC 720).

There offers are both very different, and when D'Ha sees the superior capabilities in agility and speed of the Bounty, she plays upon the advantages of the Bulwark as  a mobile hangar and base of operations, throwing in a Cloakshape fighter, with a hypersace sled and it's current R3 astromech for the hyperspace sleds droid socket, as well as the four BARC speeder-bikes that she currently has,  in an obvious effort to even the offer with the GTROC.

there would still be room in the hangar for another Gargantuan (starfighter or airspeeder) sized vehicle and several more speederbikes. Or two lHuge ground vehicles, like  cargo speeders. (you could fit four of Luke's X-34 speeder in there, the 'car from Luke's youth on Tatooine)

The increased sub-light speed and combat thrusters means this space transport can dogfight as if it is a starfighter instead of a transport.

The two added turrets are not shown on the below map.  They are on the 'shoulders' of the ship above the engine rooms (5, and 7), accessed by ladders. This makes the ship a very effective 'gunship'

Dez replies to Jendu. "I think the shuttle may no longer be ours by the time these droid are done,but I suspect they will not turn down the aid either"

Nods.  "Yes, I'm sure they would rather take possession of an undamaged Shuttle than one that looks like it's been through a meteor shower."

Jendu then says to Korstyn and the two other men (whom I can't remember their names), "I believe we have some things to talk about." 

Tak is not there, he leaves such negotiations to Woryn, the cerean. Your guess is Tak would rather be doing, then negotiating. He is a born leader, but not actually that much of a diplomat or negotiator. he'd rather delegate that task to the cerean.

Woryn nods, "To the village then? I for one am starving."

[Jendu Verbenti]

Jendu nods, replying, "I hope you know a good place to eat, because I'm famished."  Then tossing a look toward the Mandalorian, he asks, "Are you coming?"

[Shunna Maza]

"Excuse me," Shunna says as they're leaving.  "If this will have to do with any of us, I think at least one or more of us should be present."

[OoC: Since Korstyn is joining the group, that means we'll be accompanying her on this quest they're negotiating.  It doesn't make sense that we would follow her around like puppies while she does her bounty hunting.  There should be some reason (it doesn't have to be a solid reason) for all of use to fly off together.]

[IT-O (Zero)]

"So you're a medical droid.  That's handy.  I can't imagine going into combat without one nearby, since I always get to take the brunt of the incoming.  But how'd you manage to beat an astromech droid for control of a starship?  I thought that they were designed to link with ships."

"We both have SCOMP connections so technically we both are similarly capable of link with anything that has a computer.  Which includes starships.  However, I believe it came down to a bit of luck and our objectives were different.  While the Astromech was trying to take over the ship, I was simply attempting to keep the shuttle's computer from becoming too 'friendly' with the Astromech.  The more 'friendly' a computer is to the accessor, the easier it is to complete commands.  Thankfully the Empire doesn't use top notch Astromechs.  Against a more capable Astromech, I might have been easily defeated."

[DM Vitkyng]

"Excuse me," Shunna says as they're leaving.  "If this will have to do with any of us, I think at least one or more of us should be present."

[OoC: Since Korstyn is joining the group, that means we'll be accompanying her on this quest they're negotiating.  It doesn't make sense that we would follow her around like puppies while she does her bounty hunting.  There should be some reason (it doesn't have to be a solid reason) for all of use to fly off together.]

{OoC: unfortuneately for you, that's meta-gaming.  At this point Korstynn has not asked for the groups assistance, nort has Jendu.  Korstyn will have to once she getrs more details of the contract and trulyt realizes she will nbeed a ship.  Ynbtil then, she is not part of the group, right now the group's task is deciding what to do: a) Trade for the Rimward Bounty,  b) trade for the Wrathful Bulwark, or C) keep the shuttle

[Shunna Maza]

[OoC: Alrighty then... ]

While they walk away, Shunna says, "Ok, lets decide what we're going to do and get off this rock as quickly as possible.  We need to find Long so we can get back Ubi's ship.  C'mon, the sooner the better."

"Does anyone have any preferences?  I'm not sure we need anything with a huge cargo hold if that means we're just going to get ourselves blown up because we can't defend ourselves.  We had an Imperial Shuttle and we were nearly blown out of space."

[Korstyn Steele]

[[Korstyn was already walking away towards the village and not responding to anyone.]]

[DM Vitkyng]

The cerean chuckles. "It is a village, not an ecumenopolis, there is only one place to eat. Unless you are a private guest of a villager I guess. It is passable."
