Star Wars D20 Revised Session 6

Warning:  The dates should be switched between this and the post for Session 4 & 5.

Fra'll and I are standing inside a doorway that leads into a hallway about twenty meters wide, and 3 meters tall.   The walls and ceiling are covered in about 3cm thick of frost while the floor is covered in ice with stalagmites about 5 cm tall along the entire corridor.  The frost gives off a faint blue glow that illuminates the corridor where we stand.  There are no footprints and the walls and ceiling are covered in handprints which on closer inspection are all from the same person and they don't wear gloves.  There are no handprints on the floor.

We entered the hallway and the door behind us slid closed.  The pilot on our shuttle informed us that he would wait for us to contact him.  While we were walking to the first door, we noticed that our footprints were being erased after we left that area behind.  This is sort of how the hallway looked:

The x in room eight signifies a hole into room nine and doors into the rooms were centrally located in the hallway.
Rooms on both sides are suppose to be approximately the same size.

Room one, cause it was the first one we visited, contained two astromech droids and one droideka destroyer droid.  When we entered the rooom, everything was frozen in place, nothing moved, and there was no power to the droids.  While standing there, Fra'll and I noticed that the light from in the hallway seemed to follow us into the room.  When the light reached the two astromech droids, they started up and left the room.  Assuming they were following previously established orders.  Well, we followed where they went, and when they left room one, the immediately turned right and preceeded to follow the hallway down towards room nine.  Each droid left individually.  The first droid, when reaching room nine, had no intention of stopping, but the doors opened and something big and fast grabbed the droid and brought it into room nine.  The second droid, which followed the same path as the previous droid, was also abducted into room nine.  This time, we watched closely as what we percieved as a metallic tentacle grabbed the droid and dragged it into the room.  We left room one before the light could get to the droideka.
Room two contained four battle droids and one service droid.  The service droid was in the back of the room, so we left before any of the battle droids awoke.
Room three had one droideka and one service droid.  Again, the service droid was in the back of the room, so we left before the light could activate the droideka.
Room Four had one worker droid and three astromech droids.  The worker droid was holding a box containing gold bars imprinted with the Trade Federation's insignia. I took a bar for inspection and placed it in my pocket.  He left the room after saying that he had to get this box to storage.  Fra'll and I after letting the worker droid leave followed it with our eyes to room seven where it placed the box.  I sent two of the astromech droids to get the main reactor back up and sent the third astromech to disable the hyperdrive.  The three astromech droids left room four and went to the middle of the hallway and then turned left.  We watched them go pass room nine without incident.  So now room four was completely empty and we searched the room.  I found a button as did Fra'll.  Fra'll came over and pushed the button I had found and the room started heating up and thawing.  I pushed the button again and it was turned off.  I pushed the button a third time and the room resumed heating up.  Before we left, I pushed the button Fra'll had found and it turned on the air vents in the room.  The room had power.  Before sending the astromech droids away, we attempted to activate the main reactor and disable the hyperdrive from the computer outlet in the room.  The droid was unable to do so.  We left the room and headed to the next.
Room five and six were stacked floor to ceiling and wall to wall with boxes.  Each box contained the gold bricks that we had found earler.  These boxes contained approximately 125 gold bars.  Five rows of five and five or six deep.
Room seven was about three quarters full of boxes.
We then went to room eight and found a large hole that went into room nine where the droids had disappeared into.  It was dark, but room eight was completely thawed.  We looked into room nine and saw a mess of machine parts and three astromech droids just lined up on the far wall opposite the hole.  I sensed the force in the room and noticed that the force was eminating from the corner of the room hidden from our line of sight.  The force lines were strong and stronger than me.  I peaked around the corner and saw a Neimoidian who had signs of dark-side power usage.  His eyes were red and his skin tight and eyes sunk into his face.  Fra'll asked about the other three.  I asked him what he was talking about and he pointed to the row of droids.  The droids were now also Neimoidians.  Younger by comparison.  All were still very frozen.  I moved to the one that looked dark-sided to me and killed him.  The others looked dark-sided to me as well, so we attacked them.  However, when we moved against them, they were already thawing.  Eventually, they used the force to cloud my sight and convince us not to fight.  They then looked not of the dark-side and the one I had killed looked even darker-sided then before.  We started talking with them, since they had also convinced Fra'll not to fight, and they told us that their names are Nardol, Alil, and Dinan.  Nardol was the older male and Alil the female.  We went to leave and then they were gone, like time had frozen.  Now room eight was completely frozen and everything that had been there was gone.  We went back to room four, but along the way checked rooms five, six and seven.  The boxes were still there.  Room four was without power and still frozen.  We decided to go to the central hub, the bridge of the ship.
Along the way, we discovered that all the rooms contained supplies of all sorts.  We found three rooms though, all containg new datapads, that were living quarters.  The new datapads were of a technology that we didn't know.  One of the other rooms along the way also contained boxes, since everything was in boxes, of these new-tech datapads.  Another room near this one also contained the empty data discs that these new-tech datapads used.  Fra'll took one of these and some discs.  I took some discs since I had confiscated two of the datapads out of the living quarters.  We continued on.  We went pass about 40 rooms on one side of the hallway before we found the main reactor room.  The engines had an energy shield, like the ones droidekas use, around it and the engine was humming super fast.  We left that room, we didn't see any droids, and entered the bridge where we found the Old Man.  He was sitting in one of the hover-chairs and he was deaf and blind.  I convinced him to stop his ship and through a person called Pilot, the ship stopped.  We communicated through to our Captain and I convinced her to bring a locator beacon which I then tried to conceal on the Old Man's hover-chair.  We then left, and while I was tracking their ship fine, when they jumped to hyperspace, the long distance homing beacon signal was no more.

This is where we left off, so until next time.  Safe gaming and have fun.
