Re: Mission to Ryloth Part I - Day 3
Having watched the video, and not seeing much of anything that she could add to the conversation, Krysten went about her assignment: scouting. The first things she looked for were the obvious doors, windows and sundry other places that could be used for entry or egress. Every door and window that she found was then tested for security; was it able to be opened from the outside, inside or both? Was it lockable from the inside, and how resistant to attack did it look and feel?
That done, she started searching the rooms they were allowed access to for concealed entries and exits. Paneled walls were gone over meter by meter, checking for irregularities or hidden access panels, while bookshelves had mostly random books tested to see if they activated anything. It was cliche, certainly, but oftentimes paranoia lent itself to a certain amount of holodrama-esque theatrics, as if the very simplicity of it would help protect it from discovery. Stranger things had worked, gods only knew. Nevertheless, all of the classic "hidden doorway" techniques were checked.
Over the course of the next several hours, she made as many notes in her bracer comp as she deemed necessary, noting the layout of the house, quarters, bathrooms, locked rooms, kitchen(s), and the various other household rooms and locations that might be of any use to her or the group. She also attempted to extrapolate the function of any locked rooms based on their location and adjacent rooms.
[Private to Varis Rei: As an aside, I'll be more than happy to take as many Perception checks as you deem necessary. I'm more than willing to admit I'll likely miss something, but I find it slightly more sporting (and possibly entertaining) for both of us to roll for it instead of just taking 20 for everything. Not to mention, it's more than a little boring doing it that way.
