AD-hoc, Jeswain and Pergano scramble up the destroyed consoles and onto the ship's ramp. As the ship starts to ease away from the Sa Nalaor's bridge, another Cybernetically enhanced Nexu walks onto the bridge. It casts it's gaze around growling, upon setting it's eyes on the departing group, it turns and retreats into the bowels of the crashed ship.

Just before Dancy begins lowering the ship back into the clearing, you can see through the tree canopy that night is coming. As the ship drifts closer to the ground, the cacophony of sounds shifts into high gear. The jungle is nearly twice as loud at night than it was earlier.

I'm not sure about you guys, but I think we should park and lock the doors for the night. , Dancy announces as she lands the ship.

Pergano lands heavily on a chair in the common area. A little tired from the action with the Nexu.

Are we not going to talk about how those things were cybernetically enhanced somehow? Seems like we have confirmed someone survived the crash.

'Yes. Lock up and keep watch. But if they're cybernetic who made them and why? And are they still in contact or control of them? We should be prepared for an attack overnight.'

Maybe our droid friend could watch the scanners while us that need to get a lick of rest?
OOC:
Looking at images of the type of ship, it has top mounted cannons so could those hypothetically be used to fire at anything/anyone that come near the ship? Obviously, who knows at this point but just a thought, planetary scale weapons used on a personal scale object can always be fun.
May 13, 2021 6:33 pm
OOC:
Oh yeah, turret mounted ship weapons 'soften' most personal scale objects pretty well.
May 13, 2021 7:42 pm
'No objections. I will watch the sensors, although I will likely wake someone if the ships weapons are needed' Ad-hoc announces as he heads to watch the sensors through the night.
OOC:
lol, I'm no HK Droid

Rolls

COOL

Ken goes to sleep in the gun turret. 'Wake me if you need something shooting.'

Everyone catches a little extra rest as the trek through the Jungle yesterday was a hard divergence from a typical day. Morning seems to be a little late as the sun light claws it's way through the upper canopy of the Jungle. As everyone is completing their morning routine and finishing their first meal, AD-hoc notices a group of creatures moving along the river towards your location. The sensors are unable to give a definitive description due to the foliage between you and the river.
May 14, 2021 5:41 pm
AD-hoc turns on the ships intercom; 'Good morning. We have multiple unknown life forms moving towards us. . . Thank you.'

Pergano hops out of bed and stumbles toward the cockpit, looking out the viewscreen in the direction of the creatures. He hits the comms Everybody to the cockpit we gotta figure out what these things are, except you Ken try and keep them in your sights until we know more. Just don't do anything too reckless.

Blih will move to the cockpit and look in the direction Ad-hoc indicate.
OOC:
Diff for perception?

Stifling a yawn Ken fires up the targeting computer. 'Chuba, boska! Need targetting coordinates. Holding fire for now.'

In the direction of the river, the undergrowth rustles and shakes. Looking in that direction, moving directly toward you. Each has a prominent, lizard-like head on a long, upright neck around 3 meters tall. Each wears a primitive bridle with reins that lead to a rider seated with several passengers in what appears to be a boat strapped onto the animal's back. They appear to be humanoid.

One carries an older-looking human male, while the other two each carry an Aqualish and a trio of heavily modified, worn-out B1 battle droids. The droids have their weapons drawn, an additional tube slung across its backs.

From the bridge you hear IT-3PO Oh look, it's Captain Harsol!

AD-hoc runs a quick calculation before saying 'That is incredibly fortuitous'

"It is most likely that he was keeping watch over the ship somehow. It does make our mission that much easier though.

Think we can raise him by comm or something?"
May 17, 2021 1:16 pm
I would like to go and meet him, I'm sure my presence will put him at ease. IT-3PO starts heading for the ramp to the ship.
May 17, 2021 2:40 pm
Pergano looks at the figures coming their way, something seems odd.

We should be careful here, they have been on this planet a long time with little to no contact with the outside. They may not take too kindly to us visitors. How about we go say hello...but keep our guard up
May 17, 2021 2:46 pm
'Agreed, an abundance of cautious is advised. Perhaps bringing some food and medical supplies is also advisable?'
OOC:
can we tell if they've seen the ship yet?
May 17, 2021 5:58 pm
OOC:
Yes, once they are close enough for you to see, they can see the ship.
May 17, 2021 7:18 pm
'Maybe I should have asked this earlier, but this Captain Harsol and the Separatists, how do we think they're going to feel about us?' asks Ken.

'And IT-3PO, remember you work for Reom now. Don't do anything until we say so.'
