[Day 6 - EA] Imperial Court: Chiss Diplomacy?

Postby Dapper Dog on Sun Jun 23, 2019 5:34 am

Imperial Court - Day 6
Agenda: Should we accept the Dread Masters?
Rules: Those utilizing Coercion gain a free upgrade to their rolls.
Outcomes: Option 1 - Accept the Dread Masters, Darth Hofu becomes their Vanguard (Darth Hofu will be given a 13th seat on the Dark Council to represent the Dread Masters), Option 2 - Earn their Place (Darth Hofu is not elevated to the Dark Council and the Dread Masters are welcomed back, but not given a special place in the Empire), or Option 3 - We do not need them (Dread Masters are denied and the Empire exiles them, there is no place for the weak).
Mood: The mood is tense, due the Emperor's presence and the fact there is concern about the Eagle. Anyone rolling a Despair will increase their Suspicion by 5.

Rules are here.

OOC: Spending 5 Destiny for the first five player rolls, upgrade the difficulty.

Postby Darth Hofu on Sun Jun 23, 2019 5:38 am

Darth Hofu stepped forward to address the Imperial Court, “Immortal Emperor, dark Council, and honored members of the Empire. I come to you now to make a request oat the behest of the Dread Masters, they have returned from their unjust imprisonment by the Republic and would like to reclaim their place within the Emperor’s retinue. They who struck fear into the hearts of our enemies wish to continue their fight and guide the Empire to victory!”

“I beseech you to see reason and see that that Dread Masters will bring victory and strength the Empire, their hatred of the Republic has only increased and their wisdom would be shared.”

He finished with, “They have shattered the chains that held them, they are stronger than ever now and that strength should return to the Empire.”

Sylvain walked forward and began, “Darth Hofu speaks the truth. The Dread Masters were a powerful asset in the time of the war. My father was always confident in any engagement where they were present. Their power strikes right at the heart of the Republic. It exploits the frailty of their system... drives them to destroy themselves. The Republic knew this and expended great effort to remove them. Their absence was a painful blow to our campaigns. The return of the Dread Masters are accordingly a great boon to the Empire. It is the kind of strength we need. The kind of power that should be recognized and extolled.”

He gestured to Darth Hofu, “Darth Hofu is responsible for their potential return and should be commended for doing the one thing we all should be focused on. Bringing the resources and power to the Empire which shall allow us to accomplish our destiny, the destruction of the Republic!”

The Witness rose after the governor had finished speaking.

"I have met the Dread Masters," she said, voice steady and authoritative, "I have stood in their presence, and even when they are at rest... they radiate fear far and wide. I can only marvel at the thought of them making an actual effort, and directing their powers at the republic once more; a republic whose leaders and drones think they can overcome any force with their naive hope. Let them know how wrong they are. Let them *feel* despair sink in. Let it rush through their veins and shake their bones. I support the return of the Dread Masters, and Darth Hofu as their Vanguard."

Lucinia stood up, the expression on her aristocratic features as stern as they always were when addressing a crowd.

"The Dread Masters are among the most powerful practitioners of the Dark Side. To refuse them is to refuse the Dark Side. And the Empire without the power of the Dark Side is meaningless, without purpose."

She swept her gaze around. "There is not the right decision. This is the only decision. Do not be foolish."

"Ezteemed Counzilorz, your Holy Eminance, vellow delegatez, I muzt concur vith zhe woicez here zhuz var. To deny zhe Dread Mazterz entry back into zhe Empire vould be to deny zhe great vizdom zhey hawe und zheir ztrength in zhe Dark Zide. Zhey hawe much to teach. Zheir vordz vould add greatly to zhe choruz of zhe counzilorz, und would zertainly improwe zhe Empire."

Conviction resounded in her voice. On matters of the Dark Side House Farro would brook no argument, and it was obvious that their rising star lent credence to her pithy support.


Discipline (Willpower) = 3 successes, 1 advantage, 1 triumph

Option 1 = 1 point

Lord Rath stepped up next and added his voice to the mix. "I've met the Dread Masters. I've heard of their exploits. I've felt their mastery of Fear first hand."

His eyes moved to Darth Hofu. "It would be weak and foolish to deny this request. We should return their power to the Empire. Crush the Republic." A nod. "Darth Hofu should represent them."

He glowered as if daring someone to disagree before making his way from the floor.

Postby Rumun Gol on Mon Jun 24, 2019 10:57 am

Rumun once again is there, amids the powerful, nobles and high society of the Empire and once again he approaches to the center in order to be heard by all.

'' My Emperor, my Dark Lords and Lords, gentlemen and ladies, fellow imperials. It is known that fear is the base of all passions. Fear is the essence from where emotion surges. Fear of being weak, fear of loss, fear of rejection, etc. All of these creates the situation for the advancement of passion.'' Rumun said with his raspy voice.

'' To better understand the essence of the force and how emotion is directly tied to it, we must understand fear. Without such knowledge we are vulnerable and blind. By knowing how to control it we can further understand ourselves.''

''As such, we need the Dread Masters, and we need their experiences and knowledge of such crucial factor in the development of out understanding of the force. Thus, let us open our arms to those that seek such path. Let us welcome them in order to improve our Empire.''

'' Let those that deny such path cower in fear and dread. Fear of us.'' And with that final phrase, Rumun bowed and returned to his place.

Ilar's speech was simple. He spoke about the time he had spent at the cathedral over the last few weeks. He spoke about the strength the Dread Masters stood to bring to the Empire and how we would be fools to turn our backs on such a possibility.
