The Dark Academy on Korriban

"Wait. It's there. There may be next row of this, or something else. Perhaps the mechanism is reachable and can be deactivated."

Moyr sought where it had come from with extreme caution.

[Skulduggery? Baes' Mechanics?]

OOC: Mechanics or Skullduggery at Hard difficulty, or Seek.

''Let me check...the builders surely had some safety installed''

Vault mech for traps: 2eA+2eP+3eD 0 successes, 1 advantage


''Darn it, I'm to unfamiliar with this kind of structure''

"I can't break the mechanism either, but I might be able to tell where the next batches are."

MA7. Skulduggery. Hard.: 2eP+1eA+3eD 0 successes, 3 advantage

"Whatever," she said, rolling her eyes, "just send the droid."

If the gearhead couldn't figure it out, Layne was going to fail extra hard. So she didn't even try.

Moyr can pick out a safe path and easily navigated with some effort.

OOC: Safe movement with a Coordination or Athletics at Easy with a boost die or you can send the droid, but you know the traps reset.

Moyr halted the droid with her leg, then trail-blazed for the group.

MA7. Coordination. Easy. Boost.: 3eA+1eD+1eB 4 successes

Layne followed along.

Athletics, easy, boost die: 1eA+2eP+1eB+1eD 0 successes, 1 advantage


((wasn't sure if it was just Moyr that was supposed to roll or all of us))

OOC: Everyone.

Vault coordination: 2eA+0eP+1eD+1eB 2 successes, 1 advantage

Veers brings up the rear and the team makes their way to a new section of the Undercroft they stand before large black basalt doors. They can all feel the strength of the dark side emanating from within.

OOC: Layne takes a dart but it sticks in her armor and is not poisoned.

Veers + Enhance Coordination: 2eP+2eA+1eD+3eF 4 successes, 1 advantage, 1 Light Side, 2 Dark Side

OOC. Vergence?

OOC: Totally a dark side vergence.

Moyr felt it, strongly. It compelled her to reach out, to take it in... She triggered her Force Sense... The result overwhelmed. What was in there?

MA7. Sense.: 1eF 2 Dark Side

With new powers comes new possibilities, yes?

Beasal tried to reach in the force

seek in the vault: 1eF 1 Light Side


But just could not focus on the dark emotions

Moyr feels a dark entity lies within, she felt similar when she was in the presence of Zash and that ritual.

"There is something very powerful in there... made of raw Force. I think it's alive."

She whispered after a moment, then glanced at Baesal.

"Like back then, Baes."

Baes eyes widen

''Oh darn...We have a challenger here folks''

She turns to R5

''Stay back and care for the wounded, understood?''

R5 replies, “Of course Master Zyn, I am not programmed for such physical exertion.”

Not another Shadow Beast...

"Alright, are we going to do this?"

She looked around the group, eyes lingering on Veers.

"I am not sure we have the power to do it."

She looked at Anya.

"Maybe the prodigy among us can tell."

''Power but one thing...R5, you would not have the layout of the room ahead would you?''

R5 says, “This is the entrance to the Black Vault, I do not know what is on the other side.”

Veers cracks her neck and then says, “Power is in my blood.” She reaches out with the force and the team can hear the doors buckle and then start to slide open unleashing foul air as the seal is broken. The doors scrape against the floor and then the area is flooded with blaster fire as ancient droids start marching out.

A larger droid walks out following the assault droids wielding two black sith swords and says in a digitized voice something in the ancient sith language.

OOC: Vigilance rolls for Initiative. Lore or Education to understand the droid with a setback for the old language at Average, Zash’s knowledge applies. The droids are at Medium range from the group.

Init: Veers, Kill Droid, Droids #1 (4), Droids #2 (4), Droids #3 (4)

Veers Move Force Roll: 3eF 1 Light Side, 2 Dark Side


Veers Vigilance: 1eP+3eA+1eB 3 successes, 2 advantage


Droid Initiative: 3#1eA 1 success 1 success, 1 advantage 1 success

Moyr pulled out on time, readying for whatever would come. With some focus, she managed to piece out the ancient Sith. That was the second time, she apparently was getting a good grasp of it.

MA7. Vigilance.: 2eA 1 success, 2 advantage


MA7. What does the bot say? Zash's Data. Setback.: 2eA+2eD+2eB+1eS 3 successes, 1 threat


[1 Strain?]

The droid says in ancient sith, “You invade the inner sanctum of our Queen, death is your reward!”
