Jan Vincent Torm

Lost in another galaxy, the Warriors of Gar pilot their battered Flying Saucer towards an asteroid city.

Jo'din "We need a name for the ship."
Terri "Is that really important right now?"
Jo'din "How about, Princess of Gar?"
Terri "I will hurt you."
Jo'din "Why are you so mean?" (sticking her tongue out at the Garbarian Warrior)
Torm "Junior is the only one of us without a ship, he should name it."
Junior "Great the ship we'll likely leave behind is mine. Thanks for that."
Jo'din "Well?"
Junior (sigh) *Okay, the Uggernaut."
Jo'din "what's an Uggernaut?"
Junior "It's actually a small walker combat vehicle. But I've always liked the name."

The Flying Saucer is taken into the asteroid city on automation. A multitude of alien starships surround the Space City.

Terri "I don't recognise any of these ships."
Junior "We're a long way from home. Funny that."
Terri cuts her eyes at Junior.

Aboard the Asteroid city a tall, lanky alien hunches over to address the party.

Alien "[TOCK TOCK TIK CHOCK TIKKA]"
Torm "Ah, language."
Torm trues gesturing some symbols. Junior runs inside the Flying Saucer.
Junior "Computer. We need translators."
A bleep follows with a hatch opening. Inside are several click on discs. Junior runs back outside and hands them to the party.
Torm "Shall we try again?, My name is Torm. We need to use your facilities."
Alien "500 Kreds for use of docking facilities."

Torm "Ah... we have no currency here."
Terri "I though you were mister money?"
Torm "Oh I so am.  (to the alien) Thank you, can I pay later."
Alien "Pay at the booth.  The ship will be locked down until then."
Torm "Thank you, much appreciated."

None of the multitude of aliens can be recognised other than a few human looking. 

Torm asks around and finds a dealer who will pawn his ship, a grisly looking alien.  Torm accepts 5000 Kreds for the flying Saucer and is given two days to buy it back at a cost of 6000 Kreds.  The alien laughs as Torm accepts the terms.

The Warriors find the equivalent of a Cantina, and casino, just what Torm was after.  He soon finds a couple of guys playing what is a very close approximation to Sabacc and joins the game.  500 Kreds is the bet. 

GM note: despite being in a galaxy far, far away I used the ugavine.com Sabacc rules

Torm loses the first two hands, then wins the third to a Pure Sabacc hand from the lesser gambler, only to play Pure Sabacc himself.  A couple more hands and Torm is 2500 Kreds up before he thanks the guys for the game.

Terri "Seriously, you've made money already?"
Torm "Making money is easy.  I'll go get the ship back.  Junior go pay the docking fee and fix up the ship.  Everyone, try and find what you can about Hyper-Gates."

Torm returns to the ship pawn brokers.
Broker  "You're back quickly."
Torm hands over 6000 Kreds.
Broker "You said you had no Keds."
Torm  "As I just said to my friend, making money is easy.  That'll be the easiest 1000 Kreds you've made."
Broker "With that skill I could offer you a job."
Torm "Appreciate it, but I have to get home."

Torm (Streetwise - 27) learns that this galaxy was devastated in a war between two races called the Yuuzhan Vong and Abominors.  Most fled to the out systems like this with Core Worlds being left desolate.  He did learn of a world called Acrocorinth in the Core which supposedly had a Hype-Gate, but no knowledge on it being used.

Junior also learns of a planet of learning that has the galaxies largest library on a world called Pergamon.

Making their way back to the Flying Saucer the Warriors fail to notice they are being followed by an alien hunter seeking unusual specimens.

They take off and set course to Pergamon as it is the closest destination, but will still take fives days at Warp speed.
