OOC:
Im not sure you want to be talking to or asking a holocron questions out in public.
. As you enter the city a family of birdlike Sathari (native of Arbooine) with loaded wagons is departing. Kirril Jiarlo the family's elder comes to greet you and offers to sell you their goods. Their inventory seems to be common equipment and goods with one exception, bearsloth antivenom.

Tomian listens politely to the Jiarlo family elder describe the goods that he had to offer and one item, in particular, grabbed his attention. With his curiosity piqued as it was, he couldn't help but ask, "Bearsloth Antivenom? Do these creatures pose a threat to travelers in and around the city, or do they tend to keep to more remote locales?"

With not a single credit to her name, Ayy carefully looks over some of the items, just to see if something piques her curiosity.

While she's looking she'll ask the closest Sathari, "Are there other cities such as this nearby where you sell your goods?"

Kodaj had some credits yet - a few, not many - and listened with interest for the man's answer about the likelihood of running into bearsloths.

"Anything bred with a sloth seems less than a threat for those able to move freely," she mused, aloud.

Kennoe steps up and looks over the items. Sadly, with no credits to his name, that's all Kennoe could do. Smiling as he hears Kodaj's remark, Kennoe offers one of his own. One would think that's the truth, yet until we encounter one...we'll never know.

"Anything combined with a bear sounds like it could be quite a threat, though," Larh remarks to Kodaj as he, too, looks over the items for sale. The antivenom does get a closer look, but he, too, is creditless, and so he moves on fairly quickly.
OOC:
Yeah, I misunderstood, didn't think we were quite in the city yet. If there were people other than the crew around, he would definitely not be trying to talk to the holocron.

"Bearsloths are all over and I am surprised you haven't come across one already, if you don't have any antivenom and plan to be in the area I would strongly suggest purchasing some." Kirril leans in and speaks in to whisper, "You seem new to the area so I will share some information: beware attracting too much attention to yourselves, Quolas is led by a cruel reeve prone to make examples of those who cross him and if you need a place to stay Jyl Korlis is a farmer who rents out some space in the city"
OOC:
You are currently in the entryway of the city. Since you rolled well you made it to town quickly, if you had not the bearsloths would have attacked. There may be more.

"Thank you for the advice," Tomian says. "I'd like to purchase a few doses of that antivenom if you have them to spare. How much are they?", he asks.

Then, with a look at his companions, he adds, "Better safe than sorry."
Sep 2, 2021 10:08 pm
"Are there a lot of other non-Satharis in the city? If not we may draw attention to ourselves just by our presence."

"The antivenom is 100 credits a dose how many would you like?":
Sep 3, 2021 3:40 am
"So much for medicine to save one's life? Surely, if these beasts are so abundant the antivenom is not in such short supply...", Tomian complains.
OOC:
What would the difficulty be to negotiate for a better price?
Sep 3, 2021 3:58 am
Larh just looks quietly, patiently on as the others inquire about the antivenom and attempt to negotiate a better price for it.
Sep 3, 2021 5:46 am
Kennoe stands by off to one side of the group. He watches the interaction with the merchant with interest.

Kodaj narrowed her eyes thoughtfully at the price for the serum, and then tilted her head slightly to one side. She studied the vendor while he gave his advice, and tried to get a read on his authentic disposition.
OOC:
I'd like to make the equivalent of an Insight check. Is that the Cool skill in this game?
