[D2, LA] We could try asking nicely?

[Axel Ward]

"Of course it is." Axel said, his voice thick with disgust.

He frowned. "Who are these upstarts, anyway? You gotta point us in some direction."

[Nekoinu]

"The Deskulls, stupid name I know, are the most recent. Desert Skulls... They could have done the whole thing." He shook his head. "They all wear human skull masks tanned lime the desert. Anyways, about a week ago, their leader was hanged over the entrance to the city.

"Guys guts were dripping down below. Should have seen the carrion come for him too." The dock worker scratched his throat.

[Coryn Kusat]

"Great. The Cartel." A look of distaste crossed his face as the guy described the scene.

"Jesus Toboga. This guy likes his 'work' too much. Well, you've given us a few places to start. What about a ship?"

[Nekoinu]

"When you're in with one of the big leagues, they give you access to private docks sometimes. Maybe he has a base," the dock worker suggested.

Go ahead and roll Streetwise or Knowledge: Underworld at Easy Difficulty (Both of you)

[Coryn Kusat]

"Thanks for the tip." It triggered something in his memory. Maybe something he'd encountered on a previous trip to Tatooine?

Day 2. LA. Average Streetwise.: 2eA+2eD 1 success, 1 threat

[Nekoinu]

From the tips so far, it was conclusive that the target would have an easier time getting around in a smaller craft than the typical bounty hunting ship. Since he was an assassin, he had no need for cargo space or any auxiliary crew.

[Axel Ward]

Axel grunted, but didn't say anything else. He was usually happy to let others do the talking, and this time was no exception.

----------------------------------------------

D2LA more streetwise: 1eP+2eA+1eD 2 successes, 1 advantage

[Nekoinu]

Both of them were in the know about the ship. Whatever secret base their target used, it was doubtful this guy had any idea where it was.

[Coryn Kusat]

"Alright then. Thanks for your time. We'll not bother you again." With a polite nod he looked at Axel and started to walk back to the shipyard's entrance.

[Nekoinu]

There were a few options they had. Bars, gang bosses, street thugs, simply walking around, even the Holonet could have some information. At the very least, they knew they were looking for Hutt Cartel connections.

[Coryn Kusat]

"Okay buddy. So we know it's the Hutt Cartel. We know he's going after their competition. He's probably got a base with a ship stashed somewhere on their dime. What do you want to do next?" He figured Axel knew more about this sandball from his time working here.

[Axel Ward]

Axel shrugged. "If he's going after the competition, we can ask the competition." He chuckled roughly. "They sound like assholes, but that just means we don't have to ask too nicely."
