I actually need an airspeeder because I need to be able to achieve some elevation and I need to travel faster than a land speeder. Can you find one?

I'm going to ask So Leet to do research on a couple subjects.

First I'm going to ask him to find out everything he can about Tsont'Ar. We seem to have an appaling gap in our knowledge about his individual who appears to suddenly be a new player on the board.

Then there is also a personal research request I'm going to be making of So Leet as well. <PM forthcoming>

Then I'm going to see if there is a local gym or something similar that I can go workout at. Maybe see if one of the local fighters needs a sparring partner for the day, I've got some steam to work off.

Comlink will be open at all times in case anyone needs me and I'll be letting So Leet and Cuspar know where I'm headed since I think they are going to be the only ones awake anyway.

Once I find out if anyone wants to travel with me, I meet them at the entrance and pick up the airspeeder. Wailer leaves his ship in the pocket-all and his lightsaber is secured up his sleeve ("the Palpatine carry").

We will fly out to a distance of 500 km heading from the starport at an elevation of 500 m. As we travel, I "sense of the force beings" to get a better fix on the three I felt earlier.

I will fly in a circle clockwise until either the feeling gets stronger or I return to the same point. If I come back to my start point, I will head back to the port. If the feeling ever gets stronger I will follow it.

Round and round you go, the force sense stays pretty much like that the whole time.

Eli is out. So Leet is wrapped up in a corner doing things on the computer. Bulwark, Dood, Klak, and Cuspar all seem to be asleep. Syric was with you.

On Nolan Tsont'Ar

1d20[20]+18=38

Age 65
Birthplace Corellia

As a young man Nolan Tsont'Ar excelled at his studies. He was gifted in analytical tasks as well as linguistic ones. At the age of 18 not having money for proper secondary schooling he enlisted in the Republic Army and quickly found himself in Military Intelligence. He is credited with code breaking a Sith logistics code, and after the armed conflict that ceased 45 years ago went into the main Republic Intelligence Agency. He has worked on a number of projects such as
Operation Two Ton
Operation Firecracker
Operation Octothorpe
Operation Florist
Operation Jade Key
Operation Desert Sunset
Operation Orchid Repo
Operation Switchgrass
Operation Thrownet
Operation Square Fort
Operation Lion Mane
Operation Yellow Whistle
Operation Tourist Stop
Operation Willowbend
Operation Klatenhorn
Operation Xobah Sunrise
Operation Goldenrod
Operation Feral Bantha
Operation Sierra Tango
Operation Geode
Operation Talking Door
Operation Quiet Thunder
Operation Snow Rabbit

For the last 15 years he has been what the industry refers to as a franchise operator. He still has access to some Republic assets, but funding and operational control is much more under his direct influence. Military analysts suggest his role has become that of the necessary gray agent needed to pierce deep into the darker corners of the Galaxy for intelligence gathering. His current known MO is to have several teams operating at a time, achieving his stated aims as given to him by the RIA chief.

Current whereabouts unknown.
Current operational status unknown.

You hacked the Republic Intelligence Agency and got 23 classified operations on the man,, and that isn't enough at t his point? Not everything is stored on a computer. And he worked in Counter Intelligence meaning he probably is pretty good at covering his tracks.

Also that was as much info as you felt you could get without tripping security and having field ops tracking your ass.

I guess I could give you more, but do you want that to happen?

The next major plot point starts I'm guessing on the opera Friday night, so do any prepwork for that you want to do and tomorrow or sunday we'll throw that into motion.

Klak wakes up Cuspar, Syric and Dood and asks them to join him over a quick bite to eat.

As Klak and Dood nurse hangovers, Klak begins to lay out an idea.

"Fellow Alvians, I know you believe in the good book of drunken vengence, and I did get some serious vengence on that officers shoes last night. But besides the liquor ritual that my Furry brother and I performed last night, we have serious business to get to. Now as a soldier you may call me a bit paranoid but it seems that Plan A rarely works well."

Klak gets a rather serious look on his face. This is probably the most contemplative anyone has seen him so far.

"It is incumbent upon us to be prepared in case Brother Cuspar is not successful in getting to Ro'Talth during or after the show"

Klak continues "Of course we would prefer a friendly conversation, but as a Soldier we need a solid Plan B. It seems to me that we must be prepared to get his attention. We must be prepared to show the force we possesses in our little merry band. I have gathered the Alvians because it seems we have a bond to our missing companion that is not shared by the others. We also know that by Alvis a good fight is almost as good as an ale in each hand."

Klak begins to get very impassioned. Clearly he is feeling the need to get a solid plan. "Brothers, we must secure Ro'Talth if talk fails. We should consider ourselves and any of the non-Alvian crew that will join us as a Strike Team. If Brother Cuspar does not secure a conversation with Ro'Talh then we will hit him as he leaves the Theater."

Klak begins to lay out a plan of action "Alvians please let me know what else I am missing, but from my Soldiers eyes, Ro'Talth is most susceptible to an assault from the alleyway behind the Theater. We can ask So Leet to join us and hack the cameras to stop recording. From recollection he will have 5 or so gaurds, clearly they are the main force we will hve to reckon with."

"By my assessment Brother Cuspar should approach Ro'Talth during the performance. If he fails he must signal our group to leave the Theater and surround the alleyway. Once Ro'Talth's party leaves to get into his car, we shall have the advantage. A surprise assault on the group should lend us an upper hand to knock out the gaurds quickly and prove our strength to Ro'Talth."

Klak settles down a bit. "By Alvis it is time to get serious. Ro'Talth is our best way to Kunga and Kunga is our way to Sargo. We know that Sargo is our way to our friend in need. If talk fails we need to be prepared to fight, and Ill put my rifle into the mix and happily battle for our goal."

"If you are all with me, I say we determine who is what force and from what direction we plan to assault. Then get to the other non-Alvians to find out who will support the action. I would hope So Leet with with us, but Eli and Wailer could provide needed muscle to the endeavor."

[ooc: can I get a sketch of the Alleyway and front of the theater?]

I can easily get to Ro'Talth. But what do we want me to do? I think our best approach is to try and get an invite to his compound under the guise of Aderbrent. I think we can earn his trust - but I just can't figure out how to use it.

In the meantime, I need to talk to Nolan Tsont'Ar again. Any suggestions on exactly WHAT to ask him? I can play the diplomat easily and naturally, and I think Tsont'Ar likes me - but I'm no detective and the time to spin our wheels is past. We need to make progress on finding Jounville, and make it fast. I think it might be worthwhile to let him know that Ro'Talth wasn't overly happy to hear him mentioned, and brought up some sort of agreement between the two of them. And then spin his reaction back to Ro'Talth on Friday, and see if the scoundrel or the Republic spook betrays what they know.

Most of all, we need our collective shit together.

"Cuspar my Brother I do believe in your ability to prove a highly capable ambassador. I know you will get an audience with Ro'Talth. However, I feel it is only prudent to have an alternative prepared in case your efforts are not fruitful during the show."

Klak lays out a hand drawn map of the alleyway.

"I know that my furry friend would not want to fight. He is not so inclined. But Dood your stealth will be needed. I will not ask you to go against your will unless it is absolutely needed. Syric, you are also an able rogue and needed in the alleyway if we choose to move forward with my Plan B."

"And Cuspar, if you are to meet with Ro'Talth, it would be best for you to introduce yourself as a starting your own enterprises apart from your father. A new shipping company that is able to be far more discreet and agile than some of the larger firms. One that we believe Kunga the Hutt would find of value in his roladex, and we hope to introduce ourselves to Kunga personally."
