Harsol pauses to let the room settle and then turns to you, So, catch us up if you would, how did you find us and what's the state of the Galactic Empire?
Blih will summarises both situation for the Captain.

AD-hoc discreetly looks around while Blih talks, wondering if anything needs to be fixed. 'Their infrastructure could definitely use some upgrades' he thinks

'First thing's first, do you have anything to drink?' asks Ken. He then proceeds to interrupts Blih in various parts of the story to add a more colourful account of their exploits, trying to paint them in as flattering a light as possible, and acting out the most exciting bits.
OOC:
That sounds like a Charm check. Not sure how it works with an audience so I'll go for 2P.
OOC:
Yep, Charm Check :)

Once the general update is completed, the room breaks out into a cacophony of voices with questions. Blih is caught up in the crowds curiousness and finds he's been answering questions for close to an hour, before things begin to slow down. Sensing a break, Harsol moves everyone out of the building and back to work.

Then he gathers you around a table with fresh drinks and introduces you to Cratala, a female Arkanian with an obvious Cybernetic right eye.

Alright folks, now that the crowd has been sated for a bit, What's Reom's business proposal?, Harsol looks around the table expectantly.

"From what I gather, he hoped to honor his father's deal. Dancy will have all the details, she's the one bringing the ship. We were only hired to find you before anybody else which I happy to say we did."

Blih gives it a big innocent smile.

Just then your comms beep.

I hope it's going well, 'cause we have company. Doesn't look Imperial, probably bounty hunters, for now. You can bet that since that the message pod was found, it's just a matter of time until everyone knows where this place is. I'm going passive for now, looks like they just started their scans but we need a plan to move before this party heats up.
May 27, 2021 12:17 pm
Harsol face turns red, he looks almost apoplectic.

You've led them straight to us, now we're going to be captured or sold to the Imperials. I should've have killed you all when we met.

Rising quickly he draws his blaster, and stands momentarily staring at you.
May 27, 2021 12:53 pm
Ken seemlessly slides his blaster into his hand and holds it casually but clearly pointing towards Harsol. 'Let's calm down shall we.'
OOC:
Quick Draw

AD-hoc interjects, hoping to de escalate. 'You misunderstand, we did not lead anyone here. We were just more expedient in locating you, using the information that was available. The difference is that we endeavor to assist you. How many hardened, battle ready hunters do you see yourself able to eliminate?
May 27, 2021 10:06 pm
Pergano raises his hands as if to calm Harsol.

There were attempts at accessing the message pod before we left, even an attempt at kidnapping Eye-Tee. This just means we have ran out of time and move fast. If their scans are as successful as ours they wont necessarily find the Retreat just the ship. We can use that to our advantage while your people get to safety before reaching to his comm to hail Dancy Thanks for the heads up, go dark but be prepared

OOC:
Can someone roll a Charm or the like - appears to be room for an assist or boost since everyone's composure seems solid. :)
May 28, 2021 5:54 pm
"My colleagues are correct, Captain. We are not the cause of your problems. But we may be your solution. Let us fix this."
OOC:
2 strain for Cunning Persona again
cunning 5 Blih, Charm 1 Ken, 2 boost Ad-Hoc/Pergano

Edit: May I use 1 advantage to regain a strain?
OOC:
Yes, Net result is 1 success, 5 advantage. So you still have four to use.

Ken holsters his blaster. 'What are your defences like?'
OOC:
Could we use some advantage so that not only do they believe us that we didn't bring these bounty hunters down on them they're also better disposed to cutting us in on any tech they've developed?
May 30, 2021 3:15 pm
OOC:
were there any difficulty dice for the charm check?
OOC:
There were, I guess for some things I still like to roll, 'behind the DM Screen'. Also there were actually 2 different people in the room being Charmed, so I wanted to make sure I had the responses clear.
May 30, 2021 6:19 pm
The Arkanian woman stands and extends a hand toward Harsol.

Rel, It's been a long time since we were all in agreement on anything. But we knew when we crashed that our message buoy might be found. Thankfully it fell to Ropok's family and they've sent a way out. But that data is out there now, determined bounty hunters were barely 2 days behind this crew, who had the full coordinates. Once this gains the Empires attention, they'll have to investigate and all it'll take is one cruiser in orbit to trap us here forever as prisoners, at best.

OOC:
woah, is she a cyborg? Can I roll to see if her cybernetics are the same as the nexu?
OOC:
Yes, Just realized that I didn't include her description in one of those really big post. She has an obvious Cybernetic eye and (since I assume your not going to poke at it) you can make a Hard (3P) check to 'see' if they are similar.

Listen to the Arkanian, do you have anywhere that would be safe for the majority of your people to hide? Once we get rid of these Bounty hunters it wont be safe on this planet for long and we can't take everyone on our. Best case scenario these hunters covered their tracks we have enough time to get a rescue party here but we can't take everyone at once.

Harsol relaxes his stance and lowers his blaster.

Maybe your right, we feared being found and caught, but the reality was we'd always be found. At least with you here and Eyetee's presence, maybe we have a chance at not being caught. Let's go meet these latest batch of invaders, maybe they won't need their ship after today. He smiles grimly around the room. The rest of the crew are safe here, no one's ever homed in directly on our camp. After that, we can get busy planning to get out of here.

'Inquiry: Are the nexu we encountered part of your defenses?'
Jun 1, 2021 7:50 pm
'As Pergano says, they'll most likely head to the ship. Which gives us the chance to observe their numbers and maybe spring an ambush' says Ken. 'We can let the Nexu take a bite out of them before we attack, if you can control them even better.'
