Episode I
Our good friend Dantar has an associate who is looking for some talents, and Dantar thinks we might be interested. We follow him to The Wheel, a neutral station with some kind of protection gambit going on with the Empire (must be, because they're doing pretty fine if you ask me!) Of course, the station has outlandish docking fees. I mean come on, 200 credits per day? And with approx 300k people on the station, they must be making a killing! |
| The Wheel |
- Ship of legend, approx 15 years ago.
- Salvage hunter's wet dream
- separatist treasure ship
- Was at the outer rim during the clone wars
- One of their message pods recently found
- We have their last known location - outer fringe of the outer rim!
Tasked with
- Finding the ship
- Assessing its condition
- Return info to RAXUS Prime
- Find special tech
- 2x reward
- 3x if good (don't ask me what that means... I can't read my claw-writing)
- Bring IT3PO ("IT3" for short) with us to ident the crew and cargo
- We have the coordinates
Reward of 10k total, other treasure is 50/50
No other groups that they know of, but independent searchers are to be expected
History:
- Ship's captain had agreement with Reom's father
- Cpt. was asked to come to Cholganna System with undue haste with medicines and supplies
- Deal would still be intact (just need the tech)
- IT3PO is our proof of relation
- Deal was something related to advanced tech
People
- Capt. Rel Harsol of the Sa Nalaor
- Father Ropok of ISOTECH
We are given a datachip with the ship's specs and layout, along with a holo of the captain
Something else about a scrap heap point on Raxis Prime, Reconn path through the junkyard canyon. By this point in the conversation my teeth were aching and I wanted to kill something, so my attention was wandering.
Provence then did his techno-voodoo
- Data entry by "Grimners"
- Sa Nalaor desired, and famous for disappearing
- Loaded with treasure and credits
- Corellian trade route with cyber techs
- Chased by Imperials, and disappeared in a hyperspace jump
- Was banking clan frigate, with thousands of battle droids! Crew of 50
- Find schematic, was typical Munificent Class ship
- The planet is remote, with temperate atmosphere
- Cholganna have something called "nexu"
We invest in
- 2 crash survival kits (600 credits total)
- Balanced hilt for me and Rawr (2000 credits total)
- Space suits for all (150x5 = 750 credits total)
- Top-up our bacta tank
- Stock up on rations (200 credits)
Back at our ship, we notice a 'droid placing something on our hull. We dispose of it before we leave. Probably a tracking device.
We are contacted by She-Ra (???), and told that IT3 should arrive in 3 minutes. Of course, things go pear-shaped, when 3 Rhodians on a grav sled load up the protocol droid and take off. After a heroic battle surrounded by an adulating crowd, we get back our droid. But it appears the crowd was not pleased by our performance, because we are arrested and forced to pay for "damages." 15,000 credits worth!
Reom is angry at us.
Dragool sums up my feelings by saying "The Wheel is too square for me"
36XP split 4-ways = 9 XP each
Starting credits = 65,850
Expenses = 200+600+2000+750+200+15000 = 18,750
Ending credits = 47,100
