Facing the hulking Gamorrean, Arek feels the kick of adrenaline full force throughout his body. Igniting his saber, he brings it up between himself and his would-be opponent. "Stop!" he says. "I'm not here to hurt you." Lowering the lightsaber just enough to convey less-threatening intentions, he says more gently, "Friends?"

He isn't really giving me the impression that "friends" is an option, but if he attacks, my saber should cut clean through his axe---if I can block it, Arek thinks to himself. Maybe then he'll be more friendly.

[OOC: No attacks this round, if the Gamorrean attacks, Arek will block with his saber. Could Arek get by the Gamorrean and shut the door behind him? Is there a lock of any sort that he can see?]

The Gamorrean doesn't pay Arek any attention as it swings it's axe at his head. Arek parries the blow, his lightsaber cutting off a large chunk of the axe head.

(OOC: The axe is heavily damaged and at -2D to damage.

Arek could slide through the Gamorreans legs to get past it, but it is standing in the doorway. Arek does see a touch plate to activate the door, but no lock. He would probably have to smash the touch plate to lock the door, after having force the Gamorran out of the doorway first.)

Arek takes a couple of steps back into the tunnel, and sets his jaw.

[OOC: Arek is trying to pull the Gamorrean out of the doorway and into the tunnel so that he can "footwork" his way around him next round. No attacks this round, but he will parry when attacked...if he parries the axe, so be it, but he's not worried about differentiating between axes and wrists at this point. Sorry for the slow replies; posting from my phone now.]

Arek backs into the tunnerl again, getting the Gammorean to follow him. The porcine alien swings it's axe again at him. Again Arek parries with his lightsaber, managing to slice off most of what is left of the axe head and leaving the Gamorrean with just the shaft and a few centimetes of the remaining head. The Gamorrean tosses the axe aside, a bit of murder in it's eyes.

(OOC: the axe is now severely damaged and is useless until it can be repaired. Arek has managed to pull the Gamorrean five meters away for the door)

Okaaaaay...I'm beginning to think that I might not be able to resolve this particular encounter without reducing the amount of arms this brute has. Or heads, Arek realizes. Let's see if he wants to let me by him. His lightsaber held in a ready position before him, Arek attempts to shift around the Gamorrean's right side so that the massive pig-warrior is no longer between himself and the tunnel doorway.

[OOC: Piggy's last chance; if attacked, Arek will parry his arms right off, and will go on the offensive starting next round (one attack per round, defending if necessary), stopping only after achieving a Wounded result or worse on the Gamorrean. If Piggy is Wounded and still tries to get up and murder him, Arek will go on the offensive again until he achieves an Incapacitated result or worse. If Piggy doesn't attack, and lets him by, Arek will make for the door, hit the touchplate to close it, and stab through the controls (and into the controls on the other side) with his lightsaber to trap Piggy on the other side).]

Arek manages to circle round the Gamorrean, who seems to be sizing up the smaller Rodian, and then makes a dash for the doorway. Realizing what just happened a second too late, the Gamorrean gives chase. Arek slaps the touchplate as he reaches the door and manages to slip through before the door closes. Turning around, he quickly spies the grim covered touchplate on this side of the door. He quickly stabs it with his lightsaber. Sparks fly out of the device and moments later he hears the Gammorrean pounding on the other side of the door.

Looking around Arek finds himself in what appears to be some kind of maintenance room. Work tables are arranged on either side of the room, though currently they are largely bare. He sees another door on the opposite side of him. At least hear the lights are working. Kinda as the now flicker as if about to die. He doesn't recall them flickering until after he smashed the touchplate with his lightsaber. But at least the flickering is better than total darkness.

Breathing a sigh of relief, Arek looks for anything heavy that he can push up against the door; if the Gamorrean does manage to break through, it'd be nice to have something slow him down a little. Perhaps it had been unwise to let him live, but Arek couldn't be sure that killing him would have been the right thing to do, either. It was a little late for second-guessing now, though. Concentrating, Arek relaxes into a less combative mindset and stretches out once more with the Force.

[OOC: Drop Lightsaber Combat, raise Concentration for each power used hence: Life Detection, then drop that and use Receptive Telepathy on the Gamorrean, followed by anyone else Arek senses. Then fire Life Detection back up, followed by Danger Sense.]

(OOC: How do you want to do this, over several rounds or all in the same round?)

Arek summons the Force to him. He senses the Gamorrean on the other side of the door, but currently he senses no other sentient beings. He then focuses on trying to pull the surface thoughts from the Gamorrean. He can not understand what the Gamorrean is thinking, but one emotion does come through. Murder.

Arek tries summoning the Force but can't seem to focus enough. He tries again with more luck.


(OOC: 1 on the WD for a control roll and 1 on the WD for a sense roll, Arek does not have Life detection up. Arek was able to use concentration and brought up danger sense. Arek has danger sense up)

Trying to shrug off a sense of frustration at his rudimentary mastery of the Force, Arek stares at the reverberating door. Hope that door holds, the young Rodian thinks grimly. If he gets through, one of us is going to die. Briefly, Arek wondered why he felt so reluctant to kill a being that was so clearly bent on killing him. I have more important things to think about. Cautiously, Arek approaches the other door, trying to sense if anyone is on the other side of it.

[OOC: If he can (I'm not sure on what the rules say about repeat attempts), he'll try to raise Concentration, then Life Detection again. If he doesn't sense anyone on the other side of the door, he'll open it and see what lies on the other side.]

Arek concentrates on using the Force again. Again he senses the Gamorrean on the other side of the door. Then the door edges open a couple centimeters and he can hear the Gamorrean grunting as it strains the force the door open. The door's motor begins shutting the door again until only half a centimeter remains open, and it's doubtful that will remain open for long.

Arek moves to the opposite doorway, loosing track of the Gamorrean as he reaches it. Not sensing anyone on the other side he opens it to find a large circular room beyond with a hole about six meters in diameter in the center of the room. A grating serves as the floor to this room, below which Arek can see what appears to be water. At that moment a two meter wide pipe drops down into the water through the and the sound of an incredibly powerful pump start suctioning up the water. Looking around he spies an open doorway a few meters away from him.


(OOC: Arek now has both danger sense and life detection up)

Cautiously, Arek peeks around the doorjamb of the unexplored doorway.

[OOC: What does Arek know about the water distribution system, if anything?]

Arek discovers it's another tunnel. This one appears empty for the moment. He's still not detecting any sentient lifeforms yet. Thankfully the lighting system appears to be working. Though there is still a grating for a floor, the light gives him a good view of what the stuff under the grating in the tunnel is and he begins to feel a little queasy, wishing he hadn't gotten a good look at the sludge, filth, and possible fecal matter gathering below in the tunnel.

(OOC: All Arek would know is tht there would probably be places to clean water off all it's contaminents so that it could then be drawn up to the upper levels of the planet, which are several kilometers up.)

Trying not to look down, Arek makes his way down the tunnel.

[OOC: Arek will follow the tunnel until he finds another door/stairs/ladder/etc., being careful to peek around any corners first lest there be someone that could see him (yet still out of range of his Life Detection).]
