@13org They got tired of waiting for the guys to get off their asses and do something :P
@Arthanus How tough is a Snake Man's skin?
@Arthanus Hmm...I do have the *rough* ground work for a mage (see my earlier questions about necromancy), but the sheet needs much work. I cannibalized a significant part of it to flesh out 'Yui's' cs
Since I can't find any other RPs to spark my interest, I was thinking of rolling a 2nd character. Does anyone have any thoughts on what role we may need/want filled?
Yui'll just be glad she's new enough that she never really got to know any of them...
Neb



The ride to the mission location was thankfully short. Stuck in the cramped metal box with a bunch of others was a bit of a personal hell for Neb, so she spent the trip with her eyes closed and tried to distract herself by humming small snippets of song she knew; it even worked…somewhat.

When the rig stopped and Jayce began to lay out the plan, she opened her eye and took in the details. ”So,” She quipped, doing a quick double check on her F-11 as she spoke. ”The plan is to kick the door in and blast anyone dumb enough to shoot back? Simple but effective…I like it.” Following Jayce and the padawan, Neb moved into a ‘stack up’ position and waited for the charge to blow.

Like the others she was in hard on the heel of the flashbangs, and quietly kicking herself for not seeing if they’d‘ve let her raid the base armoury for some thermal detonators…those were always a hit. A snap shot took a guard in the head and he dropped like a puppet with cut strings, which was followed by a flurry of shots from the dead man’s companions.

Ducking and weaving, Neb just about made it to cover when an impact to her right shin knocked her off balance and sent her tumbling; fortunately her reactions were quick enough that she was at least able to guide her fall so that she did end up behind the cover she’d been. Sithspit! She hissed, looking at the charred remains of her pant leg and the exposed durasteel shin underneath. Getting back to her feet, she poked her head out for a moment, which immediately drew fire; but that was fine, she’d seen enough. After a mental five count, she popped out from the other side of the crate she was behind and opened fire.

Several guards had gone to ground and where firing from behind a knocked over table that was, annoyingly, apparently sturdy enough to block blaster bolts for the moment. However, Neb wasn’t shooting at the guards or the table, she was taking shots at some barrels she’d seen with lovely ‘flammable’ and ‘explosive’ warning labels on them. The barrel she hit exploded in a rather large fireball that in turn set off the one next to it, and rolled a sudden inferno over the hunkered down guards. One caught the brunt of the blast and was dead before he’d realized what’d happened, while the remaining ones were forced to abandon their now burning cover.
@Arthanus Sure thing
Neb



The announcement that the mission was underway was good to hear, the sight of the probably cramped APC wasn’t. C’mon…how else you think we’d get there? Walk? Fly? Snipers or AA would have us dead in minutes. She thought, chastising herself.

When Kaiden announced his intention, she made a small wave. ”Well if I wanna get paid I guess a better come along too.” Before she could make a move towards the machine though, she was interrupted by a hologram of all things. She’d seen the new arrivals, the big cather male giving the ‘stink eye’ to the jedi, but she’d assumed the hologram was just some sort of computer assistant; Neb had encountered those before, but they had no real ‘intelligence’, no initiative.

Getting what most organics would call ‘uncomfortably close’, she watched the holograms reaction before backing off with a laugh. ”Well hot damn, there’s a brain behind that light show.” Still smiling, she regarded the cathari looking projection. ”Freelancers doing a little smuggler hunting nailed the ship I was on, found me and took me in…I was pretty young. Not really an escape, just got lucky.”

She shrugged, seemingly dismissing the most important event in her life so far. No use dwelling on what was. C’mon we’ve got some people to kill in the name of peace. She added, laughing once again.
@Macro
Yui Ren



Moving deeper into the Temple, Yui had slung her rifle, figuring that if they were ambushed, her blade would be more useful; but the snakemen were content to merely make their presence known, without actively harassing them…that made her nervous. An enemy that did that was certain that whatever plans it lay ahead of its foe would be enough to carry the day.

As they pushed through another set of doors, the trap was sprung, and enemies began to boil out on the attack. With practiced ease, Yui brought her rifle forward and took a knee, bringing her weapon to bear on the Queen. Cut off the head and the snake dies. A nice thought, but obviously the Queen saw her intention and flashed an arrow at her before she could steady her aim. With a ‘yelp’ as she ducked the arrow, barely, Yui took a snap shot. Riding the recoil like before, she reloaded. One more… Another snap shot at the three that were pressing on Allant, then she grounded her gun and rose with her blade. Moving into the fray, she went to improve the odds Allant was facing.
I'd say we move on. He's had plenty of time to either post or at least drop you a PM.
