Commentary by memnarch (who has not seen the movie)
Hah, Ben as Jabba currently Lady Proxima. Given Ben’s last phrase to that character, I think Ben will have a bit of fun hamming Proxima up. I think it’s always cool when a player invents a character for back story and they get to show up again later, especially in multiple reoccurrences.
This hardly seems super clever to me, but maybe that’s just in Jim’s presentation. Alberto hardly looked beaten up when I could see him, and simply hiding the coaxium somewhere else while claiming it was stolen is easy. Even moreso when it’s being held by someone else in the same room. I bet this is gonna end up poorly for poor Qi’ra. And Alberto too I guess.
Transcript
Jim: Jabba’s species changes sex and appearance a lot. All connected in a complicated circle of life.
GM: This is where I got the idea of Jabba losing his tentacles after Bodhi met him in Kyle Katarn’s fortress.
Jim: Anyway, I thought of Proxima as though Ben played her. Ben, can you read?
Lady Proxima: I say, my nameless compadre, what happened?
Alberto: Alberto. They double-crossed you and tried to kill me!
Lady Proxima: The money?
Alberto: They kept it, and took the coaxium too!
Jim: This was a super clever ploy! As it happened, Qi’ra had the coaxium, safely tucked away. {shot of Qi’ra with coaxium}
Lady Proxima: This is highly unsatisfactory! How am I to indulge my hedonistic pleasures with a lack of ill-gotten funds?!
Lady Proxima: My flunkies, deal some damage to this “Alberto”, so he learns a lesson.
[SFX]: Whack!
Rebolt: Take that! By which I mean suffer the effects of me hitting you, not take my weapon.
