Mission Two: Aegis

With only 25 instead of 40 troopers and a lack of power armor the crew has a little more room than normal for a platoon of troopers. Blu notes that the group lack the quiet confidence and professionalism of the Clone Trooper unit. Some play Sabaac, other clean and reclean the same equipment. Many just sleep the whole way. Blu and Que take turns at the helm though neither have anything to do until the ship drops into whatever chaos awaits them.

Slacker works for Chief Bophar now and he does not want to let him down.    Thirteen attempts last minute welding repairs on the Aegis' rear stabilizer.  Slacker daydreams about the pretty organic who removed the transmitter from his circuitry.  His repairs are quick and dirty, but Thirteen thinks the stabilizer might hold.

Slacker boards the Aegis and hopes for the best.  Thirteen plugs into an onboard computer port near the other mechanics and makes binary small talk with the ship's computer sharing the story of the Chief's confrontation with DD-19. 

Mechanics: Mechanics check, two yellows, to do makeshift repair to rear stabilizer. Triumph and two advantages.

Que announces to the Aegis crew that the trip would be 40 hours with a 30 minute sublight approach to the planet.

"So we are 40 hours and 30 minutes from the gates of Hades." Thanis hefts one of his new toys,"It will be good to be home."

Stev begins asking around to see what everyone on board knows about Kolatil. Any piece of information could be useful, from the knowledge of the planet's climate to the knowledge of its defense systems and any fact in between. Since many members of the crew have worked in this corner of the galaxy, he figures that someone has to know something about the planet, even if it's just a little bit.

Time of arrival will be DS 003 days 19 hours (DS 003.19:00)

Analia is checking over gear as you approach her. Between passing equipment to you she begins to explain Kotiall as she sees it. "First thing you need to know is 3 out 4 of the 400 million populating that world belong to the noble house. All 5 houses hate each other in one way or another. Ik'Tal is a bunch of old geezers and traditionalists, Karadol is in the Empire's back pocket, Shador was broken by the Empire, Brakia is too worried about their honor, and Kathor will do anything for a cred. The Church has it's hand in everything as well as trade guilds. The one thing the empire did do was keep them from overtly trying to kill each other.
I also know the Captain of the Bad Omen was one of Sarne's favorites and a twisted man. I sold him some weapons once and he requested i be on the lookout for a number of exotic torture devices. The look in his eyes was chilling. I made sure to stay clear of him after that."

Private Allistar, Human Female General Systems Mechanic, Recruited on Kal'Shebboll for the FarStar Mission.

Interview and Character Summary from records.

Allistar is a child of the Kathol Sector. She grew up on her families starship and has been trader all of her life. Because of this she has never had friends beyond her family. Never really had a childhood, or formal education.

When the Stormtrooper came for her families ship her family resisted and that resistance cost them their lives. The Troopers left her unconscious in the hanger as they flew away with her life. Like many she came to the FarStar recruitment because she has no where else to go.

Allistar is a genius who spent her life on a boat full of genius level family. She tends to have a hard time relating to others who can not keep mentally up with her. Even with her quick mind, she does have some gaping holes in what would be basic common sense for others.

One joy she did have growing up was watching the adventures of Rebel Hero Alta Dyson. She even dresses based on the damsel in distress from the old rebel propaganda films.
