Hoth: Blood and Ice

[Dapper Dog]

General Zholyeva frowned at the sludge, the smell was made it so bad. She got the troops, Republic or Empire together and started handing out hydro-mops. This was not up to spec, not up to spec at all.

Get in there soldier and get the mission done.

Clean or Death.

Event Type: Side
Participants: All
Timeslots: Early Morning

Description: The hangar and maintenance area is covered in a layer of sludge, some has been cleaned off by an industrious chadra fan but still much of the area needs work done. General Zholyeva is leading the efforts to get this area cleaned in order.

This is dirty work, but with all hands on deck she hopes to get it in order.

Rules: Players that join this thread/event will gain a modifier for the rest of the day, see below.

Sludge Stench: Player suffers a setback and difficulty increases, by one, to all social rolls except Coercion. The player just smells bad, but is used to it and will wear off by Day 3. Persists through use of a refresher.

Players may choose one skill from the following list and make a roll, and want to accumulate successes, we want 40 successes for cleaning it and if reaching 55 successes then an additional reward can be unlocked. Players should keep track of successes and any Triumph rolled generates Three successes, success or fail. Despair though subtracts three successes, success or fail.

Also for every 3 Failures on the roll, reduce the total successes by 1. Every 2 Advantages can be used to boost the next ally and every 2 threat adds a setback to the next roll.

Skills that can be used: Athletics, Cool, Coordination, Discipline, Perception, Resilience, Skullduggery, or Vigilance. The difficulty for the roll is Average, plus an increase due to current Power boosts that to Hard, and two setback dice for the smell.

This works out to be (3eD+2eS) at base. GM will flip Destiny for each roll, so the total roll is (2eD+1eC+2eS). Due to the work of Pipka, the players start with 5 Successes, for the work he did over three time slots.

Rewards/Outcome: Hangar is cleaned up and orderly.

[Katarzyna Panteer]

Kat was super-tired after her night-watch, but there was no other choice but to trudge on for a couple hours more when the situation in the hangar was revealed.

Grabbing a mop, she started helping out, though was incredibly exhausted and wasn't able to be as effective as she hoped. Darker thoughts did go through her mind of what she'd do to the idiot responsible for this, but she dismissed them instead of letting it fuel her or make her do anything stupid.

[Zayne Rist]

Zayne got to work in the hanger to hydro-mop. While he wore things befitting of a Noble or Arbiter, his was very well built. But, he was not having a good time with the mop. It might have been bad, maybe. He wasn't sure what he was doing wrong, as hard as he tried.

[Hacha Tsuko]

"I just...cannot believe that someone wrecked the hanger." Hacha surveys the damage. "There's no way I am bringing my ship into this."

The Duros throws himself at the problem. Of course, in doing so he causes problems for everyone else in the process.

[Soren Haicen]

There was a lot of sludge being thrown away, which didn't make things easier... Luckily perhaps for Soren his years on Dantoonine had goten him used to some of the worlds horrible smells. His progress was good, apparently it wasn't his first time muckign out... Well something that needed mucking out.

[Galen Panteer]

"This is a very unpleasant way to wake up." The Prince Consort sighed before getting to work. "Let's get this cleaned up."

[Pipka]

After six grueling hours of scraping sludge with his body, Pipka was ready for another six, and it seemed like it might take at least that many more at this rate. It had become a battle of wills, his persistence versus the sludge's, and he never lost a battle of wills... except when he wasn't motivated or when he changed his mind.

The tedium of his task was ended when the General came in the morning and others shortly followed suit. The equipment was different, but he'd give it a short. Wringing out his mop suit and setting it aside to dry, he picked up a hydro mop and got to work. He saw some adapting quickly to the work and making steady progress, while others struggled with the stubborn sludge. Perhaps the smell was getting to them, he was used to it at this point.

Doing his best to set an example, Pipka scrubbed with his hydro mop.

[Jub'Lub]

Jub'lub knew that without the hanger up to snuff, The Turtle wouldn't be going anywhere anytime soon, and since a group of his friends had decided to go to Junktown, and rather wouldn't like to walk, this seemed like a good effort. He was impressed how much the little Pipka was able to accomplish and decided to grab a mop and bucket. Jub'lub kept his head down and held his breath as best he could.

[D2 - EM] Hoth Sludge Winter, Cool, GM + PC Flip: 2eP+1eA+2eB+2eD+1eC 4 successes, 1 threat

[Breela Po]

For the same reasons as Jubbs, Breela rolls up her sleeves and grabs a mop. "We who are about to stink. Salute you."

6 success, sorry about the setback next guy.

[Remmington Balmung]

Remmington heads back into the hangar first thing in the morning to help clean up the mess that he had a hand in. With her scanner goggles and respirator in place he grabs a cleaning tool and gets to work.

"I am not coming down this ramp until that mess is cleaned up Garth. These are designer shoes all the way from Toydaria."

Properly inspired, Garth rolled up his sleeves and joined the cleanup effort.

[Omandri Rist]

Omandri yawn and immediately regretted the increased intake of breath with the foul odor in the air.

He rolled up the sleeves on his cheapest clothes he brought and got to scrubbing off ships. Harder with one arm certainly but the nullcaine kept things from being too painful.

As he was scrubbing he pushed a little too enthusiastically and a whole mess of sludged rolled off the ship he was scrubbing "Look out below!" He called in warning hoping he didn't ruin someone's day.

[Lucinia Malveaux]

Her expression almost as dark as it could get, Lucinia did her part, more or less.

Well, actually, she wasn't great at the mopping. Mostly she did her best to point out parts other people had missed. They only sometimes took notice. "Ugh! If everyone would just listen to me, this would go much better! As usual!"

Angrily, she shook her mop sorta into the disposal unit, spattering sludge all around as she did so.

[Avieri Ciamber]

He'd smelled worse. He'd seen worse. The General wanted it cleaned though, and today he kinda thought of the General as a reincarnation of his Great Aunt. The one that used slaves as tables and liked Rodian Opera.

So he 'cleaned'. Well, he started cleaning at first but then got distracted . . . very distracted. Instead of removing the sludge he started . . . arranging it . . . in a little vignette that reminded him of said Aunt.

Something like this . . .

I'M SO SORRY.

[Baesal Zyn]

This was not the work she like but it was work she knew how to handle and knew that it must be handled.

It was not her first workplace hazard clean-up.

After getting her tools out to clean the area she found it frustratingly harder to remove then anything she ever worked with before. Ruminating on the nature of this problem she noticed something odd in the composition of this sludge which get her a flash of inspiration

She began doubling her efforts to fill buckets of the thing she would seal and keep...for reasons

Back up to 34!

[Darth Baras]

Suitable Mood Music

The dark lord of the Sith feared nothing, be it Jedi, deadly plots, or foul smelling sludge. The Dark Side would always prevail and he turned with an army of mops at his beck and call and it was a glorious march even if his overzealous mops knocked over other workers, or cleaned the dirty folks, or even if they just outright scraped the paint jos of ships it was a small price to pay for his show of power.

Darth Baras was glorious.



OOC: God damn it Darth Baras... that takes you to 41.

Darth Baras - Discipline + Downgrade Upgrade: 4eP+1eA+3eD+2eS 4 successes, 3 threat, 1 Triumph

[Jan Melmoar]

Jan tries to help as much as one can...while trying to use a very long pole and stepping from raised platform to raised platform. Unfortunately the sludge is simply too powerful.

Day 2 EM, Hoth Sludge Winter, Coordination, hard difficulty with GM upgrade, 2 base setback and 1 extra from Baras (god damn it Baras): 7eA+2eD+1eC+3eS 1 failure

[Dapper Dog]

The hangar is in working order now. No more terrible sludge and smells... for now.
