281. Hoth: King's Lair - Raezyr

Zanz stood up as if to accompany them in finding the Chadra Fan and the Squib, but Dianna had other plans. "Zanz, please inform the rest of the crew that our guests will be staying for awhile, and that they should be treated as part of the crew unless otherwise specified by me."

Zanz raised an eybrow in surprise before blurting out the appropriate, "Aye, Cap'n." He quickly turned and left.

"Normally guests are restricted to quarters and mess hall, for reasons you can well imagine. I'm going to allow you full access here for several reasons, not least of which is the suspicion that you would go anywhere you wanted, anyway. Now, follow me and I'll introduce you to a few of the crew," she said as they entered the lounge area.

There were three people in the lounge as they entered. Two humans were standing next to a pool table holding cues, while a gorgeous blue female Twi'lek was sitting on a couch, feet curled under her, watching a holo-flick.

"These two are Taggart and Dengar," she said, indicating the two men.

"Taggart here is our ace pilot. Space or atmosphere doesn't matter. If it can fly, Taggart can operate it. He was one of the top pilots in the Republic, before he was kicked out," she explained of the unshaven man wearing the green flightsuit. He smelled slightly of booze.

Taggart smiled wide and stuck his hand out which Tyrrazapon shook. "Nice to meetcha," he said, shaking hands with each Sith before turning back to the pool table.

"And this is Dengar," Dianna said, turning to the other man. "As you can tell by his garb, he's Mandalorian. He's in charge of our boarding party. Oh, excuse me, the Special Lead Aquisition Members, or the SLAM unit, as he likes to call it," she corrected mockingly after a look from Dengar.

He nodded an acknowledgment to them, but didn't offer any greetings.

Dianna then turned to the Twi'lek sitting on the couch.

"And this is Teera. Her skills lend themselves to.... stealth and elimination, if you get what I mean," Dianna informed them.

Teera didn't bother to turn around, but she did give Anya a sidelong glance, which no one but Anya noticed.

Dianna led them out of the lounge and pointed down a hall, "Down there are your quarters. Just pick an empty room, there should be several."

Raezyr turned to Anya, "Better radio Aychkay and have him bring our gear."

Dianna turned around quickly, "You guys have a droid?"

Trychon thought she seemed overly concered about a droid, "Yeeeeah, we have an HK-51. Is that a problem?"

"No. But just make sure he stays as far from Delki as possible," she said."Why's that?" Raezyr questioned.

"He has a nasty habit of dismantling droids and turning them into something else. Not because he doesn't like droids, he actually loves them. He just gets curious. He's a Chadra Fan. You know how they can be," she said. "Well speak of the devil."

Just then a small brown bat-like Chadra Fanand a silvery blue Squib female came around the corner.
