Yuher licks his lips distastefully. "Is there any way we can get past those two that doesn't involve me screwing up their minds? I prefer not to meddle with other peoples' thoughts, if there's any way around it."
He pauses and admits with a self-conscious grimace, "Truth be told, I'm not very good at it anyway."

In reply to Yuher Tru'sar (msg # 850):

La'Fenna looks shocked but does not say anything,"...well, we could do it the old fashioned way," she says hefting the slug thrower she is still holding on to for Gruss.
Car'Lorn shakes his head,"Easy there,"Dead Eye". We might get in but not without notice like that."
Looking around Chullka waits for a reply

In reply to La'fenna Tacha (msg # 851):

Yuher sighs and shakes his head. "Put that away, love. I'd rather give them a headache than shoot them." He visibly psychs himself up for the gambit. "Wish me luck," he mutters, then relaxes and struts toward the door.
Without any preamble and with no more than a confident nod to the man on the right, he goes to open the door himself.

In reply to Yuher Tru'sar (msg # 852):

As you approach the humanoids rise on wobbly feet swaying as the stand.
"Waitsss , You are not the buyer? Or are you?" " The ryll wine is good and powerful but it is not yours unless your the rights buyer."
They flick black forked tongues out licking the air.

Yuher looks down and thumbs his robes. "What makes you-- Oh. It's the robes, isn't it?"
He turns back to his comrades, unconcerned. "See, Fenn? I told you I should've changed. This is the last time I take your advice on fashion." To the guards, he confides, "See what I have to put up with? Honestly. The girl is good, no doubt, but just look at that tacky waistcoat she's wearing. What does she think this place is, honestly? 'Don't worry!', she told me. 'It looks distinguished,' she told me. Fft." He turns back to La'fenna and commands, "No death sticks for you this week. Well? Write it down, so you won't forget."
All the time, he's still standing at the door. He tries to open it again as he says, "I'll bet you guys never disappoint your boss like she does me. Look at those rifles! Polished to a shine! Well done, men!"

In reply to Yuher Tru'sar (msg # 854):

Good rp . I like!
The Trandoshans begin to chuckle the sound of which is like wet cloths rubbed over hot coals." Trandoshans never take the advice of our females. Warm bloods let their females hen peck them!" ,they laugh. Looking at you they seem to have dropped some of their guard. While some still remains. This will require a roll. How will you approach this?

At first blush the approach seems Flashy (+1), but I think, since he's just trying to steamroll any resistance the guards may have, that I can make a case for a Forceful (+2) approach.
And despite what he said to La'Fenna, he's first going to just try to rely on his Bothan charm to influence the guys, although he'll be watching them with his senses to catch what they're feeling. If the situation starts to go the wrong direction, he figures he can try to redirect their attention with a judicious application of Force.

Before any modifiers, his roll is:
12:49, Today: Yuher Tru'sar rolled 0 using 4 Fudge dice ((0, -1, 1, 0)).

---

In reply to Yuher Tru'sar (msg # 856):

They rolled a -4(Yuher completely has them eating out of his hand).
They look at you and the party, either they have drank so much Lum or they are simply dim witted. Probably both! Time for Yuher to make his other move.

---

You mean opening the door, or using the Force?

---

In reply to Yuher Tru'sar (msg # 858):

either.
Depends on Yuhers overall approach to situations like this. So his choice.

---

He's trying not to use the Force, so he's just gonna try the door. If they don't like it, well. His reactions are faster than theirs when they're not drunk.

---

Yuher nods and moves toward the door again. Without giving the guards so much as another glance, he tells them, "Good work, men. Stay sharp."

In reply to Yuher Tru'sar (msg # 860):

You open the heavy door and dust and the smell of various molds hits you. Peering in as far as the light from the other room shines in you notice that there are various bits of scrap and droid parts laying around. You see assassin droids slumped on a wall,protocol droids in various states of disrepair , their limbs strewn about. Looking to the left you see speeder parts and shells even a whole pod racer in the far end.
Your eyes adjusting to the dimness you see that there is a long corridor leading out. With crates and junk dotting the way. La'Fenna gives you a dubious look and walking in.

Yuher starts forward only reluctantly.
He raises an eyebrow to La'fenna and mutters quietly, "They were guarding this?"

In reply to Yuher Tru'sar (msg # 862):

"The real entrance is just ahead," Says La'Fenna trotting ahead of you and Chullka
"Under the law and decree from the clan heads, no one is to have an entrance that leads to the lower levels. At least not a citizen." She squeezes between a pair of parked speeders. "This area is an old garage before the club was established," her voice trails off as rodents the size of small puppies squeek and scurry away.
A few more paces in at what seems like 15 minutes or more of walking and you all stand before a large blast steel cover on the ground. Round and looking solid, La'Fenna points . "There it is."

Yuher checks his lightsaber and his outfit to make sure everything is combat ready. He reaches out with his senses instinctively as he prepares himself for a potentially hostile environment. Finally, he turns to La'fenna.
He indicates the heavy door with a wry tilt of his head.
"Is there a control panel or something, or are you expecting me to manhandle the door open?"

In reply to Yuher Tru'sar (msg # 864):

"Well,...", says La'Fenna looking at you and Chullka.  she says eyeing you and "The power to this garage was cut years ago. Unless we can find a spare power cube and the socket. Or we could look for a functioning power droid. I figured that with two strong men this would be easy for you," she says sizing you and Chullka up.

Yuher sighs and looks to Chullka. "Keep your blaster up. I'll see if I can get it."
He raises one hand toward the grate and narrows his eyes as he forcefully calls on the Force to lift the blast door open.

---

12:29, Today: Yuher Tru'sar rolled -1 using 4 Fudge dice ((1, -1, -1, 0)).
Forceful is a +2, so that comes out to +1 final.

---

In reply to Yuher Tru'sar (msg # 866):

(That should be enough of a success to open it.)

The cover gives a grinding creaking sound and lifts off guide by your use of the force.
Thick ropes of algae drip from the inner rim of the cover and all manner of insects and crawlers drop away with it. There is the smell of dank molds and stale air in and coming from the dark shaft yawning below.

The two lights on Chullka's blasters and the light rod in La'Fenna's hand cast beams downward. About thirty feet down is a shaft that ends in what appears to be and old stalled lift. "Wren vakk Poodoo." says Chullka peering down. La'Fenna gives him a look and says,"The lift looks like it still has power." To drive her point she points to a small panel on the top that shows a small green steady light."It should get us down." "All the way down?", asks Chullka a dubious look on his face. "We just have to get there. We should look for a way. Rather then jumping that far to the roof." says La'Fenna

---

Is it 30 feet down to the lift, or just 30 feet down to the top of the shaft? 'Cuz 30 feet doesn't sound too far for a Jedi to fall, is what Yuher would be thinking.

---

Yuher considers the drop and the shaft and the lift below without comment.

In reply to Yuher Tru'sar (msg # 868):

Thirty feet is the shaft length to the bottom. The lift roof is about 15 feet down. Not far but covered in thick green slime.

Without further comment, Yuher steps off the edge, using the Force to control his descent.

---

I think this approach would pretty much have to be Flashy, so +1.

13:41, Today: Yuher Tru'sar rolled +2 using 4 Fudge dice ((1, 1, -1, 0)).

---

In reply to Yuher Tru'sar (msg # 870):

You, settle to the top of the lift. You can feel it rock a bit against the magnetic pylons and the creaking mingles with the sounds of the frightened rodents as the scurry away. La'Fenna and Chullka look down trying to gauge what to do next.

"Hang on."
Yuher looks around to see if he can find any way to activate the lift from down here. If not, he can always try brute Force.

In reply to Yuher Tru'sar (msg # 872):

(Ok. This is def a "contest" how will Yuher tackle this? Approach? Invoke an aspect?)

---

Definitely Clever (+2):
14:58, Today: Yuher Tru'sar rolled +3 using 4 Fudge dice ((-1, 0, 1, 1)).
