Of Huts and Mines

 My first mission and first experience playing RPG.  I meet Jorbis Kane - a human doctor operating on the fringes of the Empire.  Professes to be innocent and on the run from the law.  When not scraping together work he spends his free time tracking down the identities of those who murdered his wife.  His mission - bring forth justice.

Our connection is established - we owe one of the Hutt's and until our debt is paid - we work for him.  He is sending us to a nearby planet to get the low down on a mine he's purchased.  Bargos wants to know what condition it's in and to collect the first of many lucrative kickbacks.  

When we arrive it appears to be dormant - not good.  It's been shot up - by who we don't know.  We battle a deranged R2 unit which almost does us both in - our die rolling abilities tonight suck.  Kane and I uncover a Droid Revolution conspiracy and have to take out a land ship that is attempting to destroy the mine.

We fail miserably. The mine is destroyed and we are left tucking our tails between our legs as we head back to Bargos. Thankfully due to some lucky safe-cracking we are able to at least bring back some insurance papers that protected Bargo's financial interests in the mine - it's a write off but he's pleased it's not a complete loss.  He pays us some coin for our efforts and reduces our 'debt' to him.

We didn't tell him we also found a Talisman in our quest.  That we keep to ourselves.
