"`PUBLIC SAFETY,'" repeats Ulster. "We like that, right? Serving and protecting sound friendly, too. Let's go in."

With a touch the doors slide open.

There are three more of those metal creatures in this room. Their eyes pivot to you and one says, பொதுப் பாதுகாப்புக்கு வரவேற்கிறோம். உங்கள் பாதுகாப்பு அனுமதிகளை காட்டுங்கள் அல்லது நீங்கள் தடுத்து வைக்கப்படுவீர்கள்.

"Oh, hi," says Ulster. "Are you the local guards?"

He steps back so as not to bother his companions. "Coruscent," he says, commanding his colorful robe to begin shifting its colors.

Grimes - Fighter

Grimes shakes his head and says in a loud, annoyed tone: "WHAT IN THE HELLS ARE YA SAYING? CAN'T YA SEE WE CAN'T UNDERSTAND YA? SAY WORDS I CAN UNDERSTAND... UNDERSTAND?" He grips Wave nervously, expecting the worst.

There is a whirring and chirping like before and then thing speaks again: Welcome to public safety. Show your security permissions or you will be detained.

Castinus, human thief

What about those cards we keep finding? Might those work?"

Those robots remind me of FX-7 from The Empire Strikes Back. I had a figure of one of those--naturally, why else would I know what it's called--but not of Han Solo, for some silly reason.

What were you expecting a blue police box and some Darleks? This isn't Dr.Who. ;) though it is starting to feel like lost in space.

Algrim looks at the metal things "Got any water friends?"

Dieter - Mage

OCC: Can Dieter hit all three of them with a wide lightning bolt? Can Dieter think of any reasons or potential dangers from firing off such a spell here?

I don't like the sound of detain....

Dandy readies Whelm, but holds back until he sees what his colleagues have in store.

Grimes - FIghter

Grimes holds up his cards and says "Here you go, my good man. Now can you perhaps help us out? We seem to be having a problem here..."

OOC: Grimes has a way with people. I'm sure these guys will love the little man...

The creature shines a red light that scans the card Grimes holds up. Yes, there is a problem, it says in its strange voice and Surprise roll 1 or 2 [1d6] = 1 a thing in its chest seems to spark.

Everyone please roll save vs paralysis.

I had a few robots and creatures too and almost no "main characters". As I recall it was a combination of (a) main characters selling out quickly, (b) my parents not really knowing the characters anyway (so who was a coveted character from a kid's perspective?), and (c) well, aren't robots and aliens more interesting than human action figures anyway? That last bit might have been because of covering due to a and/or b. :)
