Taking another breath as he reaches out with his senses for a moment. Bringing himself back to the moment he speaks gently. "My name is Ivan."

Captain Prius watched the exchange contemplatively, moving around she took the seat at the head of the table, waiting for the banter to die down.
From apparently out of no where the creature Alarick and Jett saw earlier reappeared, jumping back onto Ka'ra's lap. With it's yellow eyes fixed on Alarick, it's jaw lolled, letting drool to freely fall. Ka'ra resumed to absentmindedly pet the creature. Captain Prius momentarily made a small face of disgust at the sight and smell of the creature before resuming her composure and turning her attention to the newly formed team.
"Now that you all have introduced yourselves. I shall just reiterate. I am Captain Niandra Prius and I thank you for coming on board the Titan's Valiant on such short notice. Ka'ra," she motioned over to the armored woman and with the creature still watching Alarick. Though now it was on its back getting its stomach rubbed. "was contracted to find a form a team of operatives who would be best suited for the mission to come. And before I proceed further, I wish to inquire your feelings and attitude toward the Sith."

Keta shrugs, seemingly unbothered by either the mention of Sith, or any of Alrick's attempts to bait him, "Frankly I don't care about them one way or the other. You're the one footing the bill, if you want me to tear apart these Sith, I'll do it. If you want me to protect them, I'll do that instead."

Ivan looks straight at the Captain as he answers, “the Sith? They are a blight upon the galaxy. Everything should be done to ensure that what ever plans they have fail. In doing this if any of them can be brought back to the light, all the better.” The last statement seems to be one of rote, while spoken with conviction it is more conviction of repetition, and only partially conviction of belief.

"A belief is a thought, isn't it? Jett is confused...A thought can't be seen so... how do you stand behind what isn't there?" Clearly not understand the point Ivan was trying to make, Jett rubbed the back of his head, his black, bandaged hand actually reaching into the hood to do so, before he stepped back. Even if he didn't get it, he viewed the situation as being solved since things were calmed down now, so he didn't have to understand Ivan's example then so long as things seemed okay now.
Pleased with the situation, even if he was embarressed by overanalyzing the situation, the Jawa went to return to his seat, but he ended up stopping dead in his tracks when he heard what the captain brought up. 'The Sith...' Jett wasn't too pleased to hear them mentioned. And as he stood there, frozen in his tracks, the normally optimistic Jawa had found himself sulking for just a moment, his golden eyes losing their radience as he thought about it. The Sith may not have played a role at all in his younger life, but ever since he started to move across the galaxy...
His back turned to the group, Jett's words took a darker tone. The optimism gone momentarily, he sounded vengeful and full of malice towards Sith, clearly expressing his views on them in one, simple sentance.
"Jett hates them... Jett wishes all the Sith would die."

Alarick thought for a moment as he took a sip of water "Well the Sith do pay good money for weapons." he sipped the water again "however they are know for not always being above the board with their deals." he said as he set the water down. as he did he looked around at the others and smiled "But I really don't see what my personal feeling have to do with the mission. I had to make deals with people all the time that I didn't really like. Heck I'm not too fond of this place right now, but you don't see me getting up and walking to my shuttle...Do you? So if you think I'm going to let my personal feelings get in the way of making a good deal, you don't know me at all. I said I would help you guy and thus made a verbal contract. It's as simple as that."

Keta looks among the others as they speak noticing that the vast majority of them seem to loath the Sith to some degree or another with only Rick seeming willing to leave emotion out of it. His face takes on what looks like a thoughtful expression.

Captain Prius looks between the four, a thoughtful expression on her face. With a quick glance to Ka'ra, who shrugs, she continues. "You have been asked here because through an informant we have learned a sect run by a Zabrak called Jut-hakk has been seeking and constructing a super weapon. While our informant has assured me he not close to completing it, I am concerned with what he could potentially accomplish with what he has." Looking pointedly at Ivan and Jett she says "Your mission will be to infiltrate Jut-hakk's current base of operations where he is holding and studying a key component to the weapon and retrieve it." She turned her attention to all of them. "The informant will be key to locating the item so it will be important to meet with him. Ka'ra will be joining you as she knows the identity of the informant and has been there before."
"Any questions?"

Keta and growls out, "Seems pretty simple, keep these guys alive" gesturing at the Jett and Ivan, "While they do their stuff infiltrating the facility and acquire the necessary component. What kind of opposition should we expect?"

(Galactic Lore +8,total:10 to try and figure out if Ivan knows if this Jut-hakk is a jedi who fell to the sith teachings or was he trained by Revan and Malak during their rule as Dark Lords.)

Jett was slow to return to his seat. There was a somewhat dragging step to the way he walked before silently, the Jawa hopped up into his seat, once again remaining far too short in it, only his eyes peering over the table still. Though his golden orbs seemed to shrink and lose their shine ever so slightly, Jett was slowly recovering that optimistic attitude of his, remaining quiet until he felt confident once again.
Before he could find his 'happy place' though, the mission was spoken about, and Jett couldn't help but feel a bunch of questions come to mind, all of which he impatiently asked, raising his hand for a moment like a student towards a teacher, but not waiting to be 'called on' as he spoke up. "How can we all trust the informant's information? And what details can you provide Jett with about this 'Super Weapon'?" He asked quickly, a strong curiousity ringing in his tone. He was a fond lover of technology, but weaponry - as useful as it was - had been one of her lesser favored subjects, never too happy with the idea of killing, even if he wished such a fate to the Sith. Which, speaking of that blight on the galaxy, he had to wonder, why were they asked that just before the mission briefing? Still wondering, he voiced his concern on that as well, finding Keta's question to be a good one too. "What do the Sith have to do with the mission?"

"From the information our informant has provided: the base is expecting to be heavily fortified in anticipation of the component's transfer to another location. As of right now, his personal guard, several squads and the crew to run the base are currently stationed on board." Ka'ra speaks up, interrupting the captain. "With any luck we'll be in and out before the reinforcements arrive." Prius nodded and turned her attention to Jett's questions. "Ka'ra and I can vouch for the informant. His path no longer lies with the Sith."
"A transport is waiting to take you to the base. It was... liquidated from the base and should have all you need to infiltrate it. Unless you have pressing questions, Ka'ra should be able to answer your questions about the mission from here."
Provided there are no other questions: she stands and taking a moment to look at each of you she adds, "May the Force be with you."
Knowledge (GL) result for Ivan highlight here -->The name doesn't sound familiar but you do know several Sith sects have formed up in the void left by Malak and Revan. <---

Standing up Ivan adjusts his coat and seems to dust himself off but in reality he is checking on the lightsaber he keeps in an internal jacket pocket. After making sure everything was in place he moves over to Ka'ra he speaks in a low tone, "I have one question. This Jut-hakk will he or any of his apprentices be at the location when we go in?"

Alarick shrugged as he stood up "Say what you want but hokey religions and ancient weapons are no match for a good blaster at your side." he said as he started walking to towards main door. "If it's ok I would like to look over the ship to see what it's capable of." he said walking out the door.

The young Jawa felt quite satisfied with the answers he had recieved. There was still plenty to ask and be informed about, but as he was told, that could be spoken about later on once they jumped into hyperspace. His confidence back and in full bloom, Jett hopped back off the chair, almost tempted to give that little creature a little pat on the head, but resisted and lined up at the door, awaiting for their departure. He was pleased with Alarick's idea too, having made a personal habit of that on any of the ships he stowawayed on and the pilots were kind enough to let him sit up front; Jett learned a lot about piloting during his days he went across the galaxy like this.
"Force with all, yes~" He chimed in responce, never really beleiving much in the force, but knowing it's power and respecting it. so, with his dismissel, Jett quickly hobbled away from the table and approached Alarick to follow him, a calm smile beneath his hood as his anticipation continued to swell.
