"The Mechanic?" Avox muses, trying to remember if he knows anything about him.

Streetwise (guessing on difficulty)

Doc leans back with a thoughtful look on his face "Well, sounds like we can wort]k the disgruntled employee into our plan without too much difficulty....he'll, it makes things easier in some respects.".

At the mention of the Mechanic he glances at Jack before shrugging "Doesn't really change the plan, we need to get this done before the real ISB show up anyway and as soon as we have done we're not sticking around" he thinks for a moment "Perhaps we can turn the situation to our advantage and stick some of the fallout from boosting the bacta onto this 'mechanic'....can't for the life of me think how we'd do that right this second but it would be nice if we could swing things that way."

Jack's heart sinks, though he does his best to not let it show in his face. He draws up his hand and places it gently across his belt, where it can touch against his blaster; It helps to comfort him somewhat. "Noted," he says, but only because he can't find it in himself to elaborate on it.

He turns to Doc at the mention of it, and just nods his head, trying to uphold a composed appearance.

Avox, you don't know much about the Mechanic, but you do know he (or she?) tends to work through droids.

Kiph listens to your plans with interest, then suddenly cranes his neck to look over you. "Where are your other friends, Bo and Savi? I would have expected they would return before you." He looks slightly abashed, "I apologize if I am being over-curious."
Mar 24, 2017 3:42 pm
"Not certain," Jack says, looking to the others for some clarification. After a moment, he keys in on their comm channel...

"Bo. Savi. Either of you listening in?"
Mar 24, 2017 8:45 pm
"Jack, tell everyone on the comm link to be on the look out for Droid bounty hunters. this "mechanic" works through them mostly." He looks to Doc in the room with them, "And same for us. Be extra wary of droids."

Jack waits to hear from the rest of the crew before relaying the message.

Bo wakes up to the sound of her communicator chirruping. As she groggily lifts her head, she can feel the indents left behind by the grating on the floor of the ship pressed into her face.

[ +- ] Savi
Mar 26, 2017 12:37 am
What the...

The initial panic that grips Savi's mind is immediately squashed by his long years of diplomatic training. His was a mind honed for control, and it kicked in more sternly when the cause for alarm was elevated.

He took a breath. Think...

His best bet was to remain calm, keep his breathing steady and under control, and listen carefully to the goings on outside the container. He needed information...
Mar 27, 2017 12:33 am
Bo says groggy slurs into her communicator, "Wah da hewl happen to me? I tink I was attacked?"
She rolls about looking for any signs of what happened

Savi

After a moment the lid of the container is lifted off, and glowing yellow eyes peer down at Savi. Metal arms reach for him and he is unceremoniously lifted out of the box and deposited on the floor. Groggily looking around, Savi sees dim light and permacrete walls, and a very odd assortment of droids. He lifts his head to see the brown robe and angry amber eyes of a jawa, gesticulating wildly and chittering.

A battered protocol droid, its sheen long worn off, responds to the tirade, "But master, this IS the man you were looking for. He meets every parameter you set. Human male, facial hair, crew of the Horizon Chaser."

The jawa responds derisively.

The protocol droid stands up, looking affronted. "I certainly do not think they all look alike. I am programmed with advanced diplomatic and cultural recognition....or at least I used to be..." it trails off. It turns to gesture to Savi, "You there! What is your name?"
Mar 27, 2017 9:27 am
Bo

Looking around, Bo sees that she is at the top of the ramp of the Horizon Chaser. The parts she bought are scattered all around her. The only sign of Savi is his blaster, sitting inches from Bo.

At Kiph's shop

The com rings for a disturbingly long time before you hear Bo's voice respond.
Mar 27, 2017 9:34 am
Whilst waiting to see if the comm is answered Doc turns to Kiph "Do you have any restraining bolts stashed behind the counter at all?"
Mar 28, 2017 9:02 am
"Attacked, Bo?" Jack replies, sounding alarmed, "By who? Are you alright? Is Savi with you?"
Mar 28, 2017 9:19 am
"Of course, there is a bucket of them over there," Kiph points out into the shop.
Mar 28, 2017 9:29 am
Doc looks to his companions "If this bounty hunter uses droids then carrying a few of these might give us a bit of an edge" he walks over to the bucket indicated by Kiph and grabs half a dozen of them before sliding a cred chip over to Kiph.
OOC:
Assuming that the price is the same as the core rule book I make it 210 credits in total

Allowing his eyes a moment to adjust to the light, and his mind a similar time frame to recalculate his predicament, Savi furrows his brow and looks from the Jawa to the droid addressing him.

"What's my name?" He thrusts a forefinger into the chestplate of the battered droid, "You're a protocol droid! You've kidnapped a law abiding citizen, subjected him to the most inhumane treatment, then have the audacity to demand his identity? Are you often in the business of kidnapping people before you know who they are?!"
