Re: Episode 1: The Search for Luke Skywalker Begins
Claire hops into the cockpit of one of the V-wings. She flips the switch to power on the cockpit controls and systems. She then starts pressing buttons and reading the readouts to do a pre-flight systems check. If this fighter had any glitches in its systems that the ship's own diagnostics programming could detect, she wanted to know about it while she still had time to fine tune it.
She makes idle chat while she does the diagnostics on the ship saying, "Well you should go look into that. Finding your birth parents would be a good exercise in detective work. At least, that's what you should tell the Jedi Order if they find out what you're up to. I can't see any harm in it, not at your age. I mean, you're too old now to bond with your parents, not really. But it would be nice, you know, for them, to let them know that you're alive and well. Who knows? They might be proud of you. I mean, if it were me, I would do it. It would be nice to know someone is proud of me. Then again, if it were me, my parents wouldn't be proud of me. They never did trust the Jedi. But still... would be nice to have someone proud of me... because my parents certainly aren't. I mean, you can imagine in my line of work, right? But no, there was never any pleasing my mother. However good I did, she expected better. And if my father ever was proud of me, he never could express it."

22:22, Today: Claire de la Croix rolled 20 using 1d20+9 with rolls of 11. Pilot.
She then hammers her fist on the back of the cockpit on the metal plate beside the head of her seat. "Oi! Wake up back there, luv!", she yells at no one who can be seen. She then mutters to herself, "They better damn well have supplied Astromech Droids for these things. It's going to be really hard to plot a Hyperdrive course without one, what with the Astromech being the ship's Nav Computer."
