OOC:
Honestly, I don't disagree with Rael's sentiments. It makes perfect sense. I am just bringing it up so that we don't completely sideline the player. If he's gonna get his own cool adventure fighting the separatists, that's cool too!
Also, there is absolutely no reason for me to roll for Persuasion for Hank. I have a modifier of +0 and DC 22. And Slaine doesn't even have the skill, so his odds are even worse.
Hank continues,
"My concern is that there may be larger issues afoot. As I told Corbin, our shuttle's navigation system had been hacked. Because of that hack, we nearly impacted the Draco I orbital station. Originally we thought someone was trying to kill us. But then another option was realized: What if we weren't the targets? What if they didn't even care about us? What if the purpose was a terrorist attack on Draco I itself? I have no idea how this fits together, or even if it does fit together. Maybe the idea was just to reduce the crew and the target was irrelevant. We don't know. But we can't even try to know without going back and finding out."OOC:
On the off chance a natural 20 works anyway, I'll throw a roll. Otherwise, I guess we'll just have to leave Douklan behind. :-(
EDIT: At least it wasn't an embarrassing attempt. It was a reasonable argument that just wasn't convincing enough.
EDIT: After the failed persuasion attempt, Hank finishes by saying,
"Are you able to come back with us Corbin. We're really gonna need your help sweeping the systems to make sure there aren't other presents hanging around!"
