Larh gets on one of the computer consoles in the ship, to see what he can find out about Arbooine on the Holonet. The Devaronian is focused intently on the screen before him as his fingers type away rapidly.

Kennoe remember a desert world in the outer rim but realized he was thinking of Tatooine not Arbooine.

OOC:
guys I am going to have to step away, I don't have it in me to learn a new system right now. Enjoy the game and get some empire scum for me :-)

"Arbooine?"

"Ah yes, Arbooine!"

Has anyone not rolled yet? Can I use the two Advantages from Kodaj's roll to add a blue whoever's left? Or add a blue to Ayy's roll, if everyone's gone?

Unfortunately I am going to have to bow out of this game to lighten my playing load. My wife has started pre-labor signs for baby number 2. So I'm gonna run out of free time really soon. Thank you for inviting me!

OOC:
I'm not going to roll on this one since Tomian already said he wasn't familiar with Ardooine.
Aug 13, 2021 12:49 pm
"You know it?" she asked the Twi'lek, when Ayy seemed to recognize Arbooine.

She gestured towards the ship's console.

"It sounds like we're in agreement. Should we set ourselves towards this task?"
OOC:
Does anyone have ranks in Astrogation? I think Alastor said it was an easy (one purple) Astro check to plot a course.
Aug 13, 2021 4:26 pm
"Well, I do know of it, but have never been there. I believe Lahr has done some research as well."

Ayy will take a few moments to relay to the others what she knows before glancing towards the ship’s console.

"I don’t see any reason why we shouldn’t be on our way, however my skills as a pilot are more useful once we’ve arrived at a destination. I fear plotting courses to those destinations is not my strong point."
Aug 13, 2021 5:49 pm
I agree, we should head there, but my skills are lacking in that area.

"Well," Tomian says. "It looks like our first hurdle to overcome is finding an Astrogator. Perhaps we should make some discreet inquiries at the nearest spaceport? Maybe we can find someone sympathetic to our cause."

Tomian is clearly uncomfortable with what he is suggesting, but he manages to keep his voice steady.

"I realize that there is a great deal of risk associated with that course of action," he adds. "If anyone has a better idea, please speak up. I am happy to consider other options."

I...think I can manage it. I'm no astro droid, but I can probably work the nav computer well enough to get us there, Larh offers regarding plotting the course to Arbooine, I wouldn't want to try plotting a course through a nebula or dense star cluster, but Arbooine seems to be reachable through major routes. The Devaronian then looks around at the others to see if they are agreeable, or would rather hit up a starport first.
OOC:
Larh has nothing in Astrogation, but he does have a 4 Intellect
Aug 14, 2021 12:25 pm
"I am in agreement with Larh," Kodaj says, gesturing to the Devaronian. "There is much risk associated with soliciting help, and I think between the lot of us, we should be able to figure it out."
OOC:
It's an easy check. Larh with his four INT should be able to do it, no sweat. Kodaj will assist him as copilot for an additional boost die, with Alastor's permission.
Aug 14, 2021 2:21 pm
Tomian exhaled softly when Kodaj spoke out in favor of Larh's suggestion. He was inclined to trust Larh's instinct over the dangerous gambit that he had suggested; however, he knew absolutely nothing about astrogation or piloting and was ill-equipped to gauge the associated risk.

"If the two of you believe that you are up to the task, that is enough for me. I am sorry that I am unable to help. I dreamed of traveling the stars someday as a child, but I never really believed that I would. Of course, even had I foreseen the events that led me here I don't know of anyone who might have taught me such skills."
Aug 14, 2021 2:32 pm
"Let's be on our way then!"
Aug 14, 2021 2:59 pm
Agreed, let us plot a course to our destination. Those that can plot the course..can do so. Those of us without the knowledge can assist in other areas. Kennoe says as the group finalized their plans.
Aug 16, 2021 5:58 am
Nodding after hearing the others chime in, Larh heads off for the cockpit so that he can begin plotting the course to Arbooine.
OOC:
Before I roll, just wanting to confirm the difficulty is Easy, and find out if Alastor is good with Kodaj assisting.
Aug 16, 2021 4:53 pm
OOC:
Yes, do it!
