OOC: If you feel like you have nothing to add then, yes you can pass...but I would strongly urge you to write something. As the GM, I generally need at least your location and general stance......so if you had passed I wouldn't have known were you were or even if you decided to enter the bar. Also, you can always RP about what you see/smell/feel, what your features would look like to another being, the general vibe your character might be giving off, etc .The bartender smiles Misha. "The first one is on me, friend" He said while mixing up the drink. Moments later a blackish colored drink with a strong sour scent slid across the bar toward Misha's hand. As jab-jab enters, the room seems to quiet a bit and the patrons seem to treat her with a bit of suspicion and distrust.

Glancing at Jab-Jab, Misha mutters to her, "I do not know that these people welcome your kind here." Turning to the rest of the party, he continued, "It may be best if we do not linger after all."
Taking a sip of his Force Choke, and finding it aptly named, Misha continued to stare around the bar. He then addressed Jab-Jab again.
"Do your newfound abilities allow you to detect anything else about the crowd?"

Tre' couldn't help but wonder what 'anything else' Misha meant. Did he feel something that only Jedi and the like could sense? He felt a little uneasy, though it could have just been the odd way members of the crowd responded to Jab-Jab's presence. He couldn't help wondering how the troupe had fared without a Jedi to give them such vague hints. Then again, maybe Misha was merely testing Jab-Jab's new-found abilities to see what she had in her, having just recently lost the only other Jedi that could sense things like he could. Did Jedi do things like that? Tre' felt like there was a deep meaning behind everything a Jedi did or said, far deeper than mere testing. Jedi were strange, he consented, vaguely wondering also what it must be like to perceive things with more than just the five senses and general intuition? Tre' glanced over the crowd, no matter what planet or race, it seemed that bar patrons largly all acted the same.

Koth turns to Misha, curious about his suggestion. He can tell that the ambiance of the bar is slightly different, but is unsure why. "Do you sense something?" He addresses to Misha and Jab-Jab.

Jab-Jab raised a scaly eyelid when the room quieted as she entered. What are they so nervous for, we were here first, she thought with indignation.
She turned her attention back to the group. "Meesa don't knows about sensing anything," she nodded to the back door, "but I just saw somebody leave through that door. They looked like theysa no want to be seen. Maybe yousa guys come after me in a minute if I nosa come back by then?"
Jab-Jab rose quickly from their table and went out the back door to catch what might be their next lead.

The people in the bar discreetly watched Jab-Jab run out of "The Snapping Nyork", and the atmosphere felt much more relaxed. Outside, the street seemed to have become much quieter and people walked quickly along, feeling much more tense and worried. The slight scent of fear tinged the air. Jab-Jab managed to see the figure duck behind a nearby corner, leading into a darkened alleyway. Their cloak billowed outward from the ground as they briskly walked away.
For those of you who choose to follow Jab-Jab, go ahead and make a spot check again, and any other check you think might help as well

Misha watched Jab-Jab run out the back exit of the bar, discreetly drawing his lightsaber as he ran. (OOC: Can I do that? It's two movement actions in a turn as long as I don't take an action-action, right? If that's not right, then I still run after Jab-Jab, and I guess I just would not have drawn my lightsaber. Also not igniting it, just to be clear this first time, lol.)
He tried to keep Jab-Jab and the man in sight as he ran, and kept his lightsaber close to his body so as not to alarm the general population.

Tre' stood, deciding to take Jab-Jab's suggestion sooner than later, "General rule of the road: Safety in numbers" he stated, then quickly followed after Misha and Jab-Jab. This'll be a trend since I never really knew to begin with (I just went along with what it seemed like everyone was doing)... but I forgot where all the numbers come from... if the spot number doesn't come from "SPOT" in the skills list, I'll redo it ... also, if I can't do both at once I'll just spot haha. I'm pretty lame with all the "technical"ish stuff... Spot Check [dice=20+6] listen [dice=20+6] ...... [rand=06633381486959089605233524906483309272914083438417371024994852624]

Koth sees the other members following after Jab-Jab and follows along; should anything go awry, it would be best if all were present.
Koth quietly, and stealthily exits the bar en route to Jab-Jab and the cloaked figure.

Upon seeing the cloaked figure round the corner, Jab-Jab broke into a sprint to chase him/her/it down, all the while glancing around for more signs of trouble or oddness.

OOC: To clarify, carla.....do you the person not understand whats going on, or you the character? Also, you did the roll just fine . And drawing your lightsaber is a free action I believe, unlike most other weapon drawing, so you're good....AND in any case, yes you get two actions, so you would've been just fine. But unless we're in a more combat like setting the strict "two movements one attack action" is much more loose. You don't have to worry so much.

Misha stopped short at the entrance to the dark alley-way, standing a few feet behind Jab-Jab. Then, summoning the Force to him, he filled himself up with it, letting it heighten his senses. He became more aware of his surroundings as the Force coated him in its warmth. Enhance Senses:[dice=20+3]
Then, he moved slowly into the alleyway, searching for the man's avenue of escape, or some clue as to which way he had gone. Search:[Dice=20+7]
"Jab-Jab! Your Gungan eyes are keen. Can you find any trace of our cloaked friend?"
(OOC: I added seven to the die roll because that's the mod from my enhance senses check plus my Search mod. I'm changing my character sheet to reflect the loss in vitality from using the Force. And this dice situation is ridiculous.)[rand=3216398123186081615491967392154038946693070931360111438313056714833]

To Clarify, Parker, no, my character doesn't understand the dice... -.- ... ^^; You said either change the color or put OOC infront of it. Looks like everyone is using blue to be OOC and unless your computer can't see blue, I feel a little silly doing both. Would it be better for you if I left the text black and started it with "OOC:"?
Also, a second clarification before I actually post and shoot out a group text, is red just a general "everyone does this" color? O.o
"There!" Tre' exclaimed, pointing up to the roof tops. He followed from bellow as best he could, not liking the way things were playing out already. He didn't know much about this city, having only been there a short time, but if this... person kept going in that direction they'd inevitably end up at the edge of the city. In his travels, Tre' had found that that was usually the last place anyone wanted to willingly end up. It was a good place for traps and ambushes. Falling behind, and hoping not to lose track of this figure, Tre' made an attempt to climb the nearest building so that he'd be on the same level and lower the chances of them disappearing on the high plain.
[dice=20+10]

Koth looked up at the buildings and saw the figure dashing across the rooftops. "I see him!" he exclaimed pointing upward. "This could be our only lead, let's make the most of it". Koth knew his climbing skills weren't the greatest, but he was aware that Tre' was an adept climber. "Anyone who can get up there, follow that guy, the rest of us should stay down here and do our best to follow". Koth began to follow the figure's path as best as he could from below, motioning with his hand for the others to follow.

Jab-Jab looked up to the rooftops where Tre and Koth were motioning. She knew that her clumsy Gungan hooves would be of no use in climbing, and looked for a way to the other side. She had already seen with her keen eyes that there was no way out of this alley at ground level. Jab-Jab ran to the other side of the building and raced alongside the figure as fast as her square toes would carry her in hopes of beating it across, or at the very least, to see where it would disappear to.
