Star Wars Campaign: Session 2, part 1

Kin, Deeni, and Cray made their way to the docking bay after hearing their ship had arrived. Upon reaching the docking bay, they found an elderly mandalorian overseeing repairs and maintenance on the ship. They approached him, and he introduced himself as Dorin, the Crimson Elite Captain assigned to them. He explained to them in no uncertain terms that his first priority was to protect and recover the ship. He soon lightened up, however, saying that he would act as a safety net and would come to their aid if they were in dire straits. He then asked if there was a pilot and navigator with them, and Cray stepped forward as pilot and Kin stepped forward as navigator. Dorin expressed his pleasure at this, saying he preferred gunner anyway, and he welcomed them aboard the CFS Kath Hound.

The group started the 3 day trip to the Tauria system. While en route they asked Dorin about his life. He explained that he was a hired gun for the first 40 years of his life, spending time working as a mercenary and a body guard. He was working for a small security firm when he was contacted by Mandalore himself and asked to be one of the first Crimson Elites. He worked for the company, as he calls it, for several years, turning down promotion opportunities and trying to stay away from becoming a Major until his age forced him to slow down a bit and become a Captain. In his own words "I'd prefer to be out here babysitting a bunch of kids than babysitting a bunch of adults," referring to the fact that he never wanted to become a Colonel.

While on the trip, they also reviewed the bounty information on Haisha. She was a small time smuggler who killed a stormtrooper while resisting arrest. In recent months she had shown an interest in getting some cybernetic work done. She was last seen headed for the Tauria system.

They finally arrived in system. Dorin talked about his working a security detail on Tauria-2 while Cray searched for a port to land in. The first he found was 1200 credits. Everyone became distressed at the high docking fee until Kin, trying to find a better deal, discovered that Cray had been trying to land them in a docking bay for rich tourists. Kin managed to find a cheap little docking bay in Tauriana that was only charging 50 credits. Fronting the money after being assured the Crimson Elite reimbursed docking fees, Cray landed the ship.

They then talked to the dockmaster, showing him a picture of Haisha. He mentioned that she had in fact landed in his dock earlier that week and told them that while he normally wouldn't care, she had paid 100 credits for extra security, recommending against the players trying to break in. He then asked if they could do him a favor and transport a few parts to his brother on Tatooine. They agreed to help him, and went about planning the next phase of their plan. They talked to Dorin, who brought up how odd it was that the dockmaster had mentioned how much Haisha had paid for security. Taking the hint, the group talked again to the dockmaster and gave him a gift of 150 credits, after which he turned around and a security card fell out of his pocket.
