Erik Zaar's next money-making idea (or, Idea #27 on how TIE Pilots can be useful):

First their tears, now give them diabetes and make whiskey from their urine. And of course, the gold label bottle would have the whiskey flavored with their tears. You know, for continuity.

Well let's try for tomorrow first and we'll see what happens from there. If we can play catch-up, all the better.

Now to dig my notes up and get things ready.

Hm, found an interesting add-on for AstroSynthesis (another NBOS tool), it's a Star Wars Map.

I might be able to use this.

Game without me this week guys, the back to school thing has rather adversely affected my sleep schedule. I should be good to go next week, but right now I'm tired, need to get up early, and have things I need to work on.

Heya guys,

I have decided that next level I will not be picking up my first level in Crime Lord as expected. The reasoning behind this shocking move is simple, I have found something even more enticing for next level. Behold, blend in!

Blend In (Talent, Galaxy of Intrigue): You know how to blend into a variety of cultures and groups with ease. As a swift action, you gain total concealment when adjacent to at least two other creatures. This benefit does not apply to attacks from adjacent creatures.

What does total concealment grant? a -10 to all perception checks aimed at locating me. Under normal circumstances, you cannot attack targets that have total concealment. If an adversary guesses the correct square where Erik Zaar would be located he receives a -5 concealment bonus to all attacks (from non-adjacent targets) (SWRPG: pg 157). Total concealment makes it impossible for anyone to make an attack of opportunity against the concealed target (with this talent, someone adjacent to Erik can do so).

So, given this talent and his recent acquisition of the "stealth" skill, assuming Erik rolls a 10 on a d20 for a total stealth roll of 20, an adversary would have to beat a threshold of 30 to see him! (total concealment impairs a -10 to the perception check). /drool

:twisted:

If I had picked up Crime Lord, I would have picked up Inspire Fear I. However, a -1 to all attack rolls and opposed rolls from targets that are Erik Zaar's level or lower does not compared favorably to the above talent. ^_~
