Chapter 2 - House Calls

Jul 11, 2021 9:31 pm
Whaymel's residence is located in the Lako area of town and not more than two klicks from Falu's city center. Consisting of mostly single family dwellings it is home to a wide variety of species and an area where one can find persons from all different types of backgrounds and economic statuses.

Whaymel's single story home is quite modest in appearance, with a decorative fence along the perimeter of his small lot. There are children's toys littered about the yard and a pair of small, well kept, older model speeders in a covered area to the right of the house itself.

It is still fairly early in the morning and the narrow streets are starting to get a little crowded with people heading off to work.
OOC:
Your characters would all be familiar with this area. It's possible that you know people who live here, live here yourselves, or have lived here in the past. Destiny points are still available for use for helpful story twists to occur. :-)

Kip makes his way over to inconspicuous location near Whaymel's house, and pulls out his commlink. He clicks the switch on the side a couple of times before speaking into it.

"Everybody make it out okay?"

Gurag stumps along through the streets, looking very much the part of a labourer heading to work. As the comm comes to life with Kips message he responds back "I'm good boss, just on my way to the job now. Should be there in a couple of minutes"

"Can't speak for the others, but I'm nonchalantly making my way there. Has anyone confirmed that Whaymel is even home?"
Jul 12, 2021 9:42 pm
Boss? Hell no. Kip could have something resembling a commanding personality at times, but that's just a combined result of him finding people inefficient and him being generally kind of a grump.

"I'll let someone else check on the house. I'm more comfortable keeping watch on the back door."

What did I miss? I closed my comlink when I was listening in on the guards.

"Not much, just waiting for the others to get here. It's good to see that we have plenty of sympathizers in the FSF, certainly makes things easier for us."

What did we really achieve? We got their address book, and we need to move fast on that lead if it is going to have any worth. But I am very uncomfortable by keep running blind.

Gurag comes round the corner and joins the rest of the group. "So what we thinking then? You reckon this Whaymel's some type of Imp informant?"

"Who knows? But he assuredly isn't on our side. So what's the plan? I don't mind trying to bluff my way in, telling him we are replacing the crew that was attacked. Which is mostly true" Guy says, amusing himself.

Kip'll sit back and let the others take the lead on this.

Even with just a quick glance at the home it's easy to tell there's activity inside as shadows are thrown against the closed window drapes.

What's the plan?

I guess Guy will go in for the bluff, if no ones protest soon, and the rest of the team will back me up.

Kip'll watch the exits, and make sure that anybody that runs is caught.

I don't know, I am struggeling a bit to figure out what is going on, how it relates to them and why they are risking their lives.

Guy walks up to the residence, puts on a serious face, and knocks on the door. He asks for Whaymel Lectronfire. Then lowers his voice and begins; 'I assume it's safe to converse here? I was sent by Captain Mercon, well actually to replace him. His team was attacked, wiped out by insurgents. The empire would like you to deal with us, as you would have with the captain.' Then guys waits, hoping Whaymel's response will give him enough info to work with.
OOC:
this is all assuming they are home, and don't immediately shoot me, lol.

Stepping back after knocking on the front door Guy can hear a flurry of activity inside of the home before a female Pantoran, carrying a small child on her hip, answers the door.

"Bit early to be knocking on doors, is it not?" she asks, a slightly annoyed expression on her face. When asked for Whaymel she puts the child down and tells the small boy. "Go tell Daddy someone is here to see him."

The woman stands in the doorway without saying a word, staring directly into the Bothan's eyes until Whaymel arrives and steps outside, closing the door behind him. The Pantoran introduces himself and asks what could be so important that such an early visit is required.
OOC:
Since your characters are all familiar with Falu there is a chance that you may have seen Whaymel in his restaurant, Fire's Bar and Grill, which was a popular spot for the workers at the Imperial site to stop and have meals before the arrival of Captain Isskar Cronwick and his much harsher dealings with the town's population.

I'll leave it to each player to decide if they recognize Whaymel from his place of business and give Guy a chance to reevaluate his approach with this new information if he would like.

@crazybirdman - Are you going to change your approach with Whaymel? Have you seen him before?

OOC:
I don't want to cheat/metagame, I can't see what I would do differently if I recognized him? Maybe I would have been able bluff better?
