Competition: They Are Coming For You

Finished
They Are Coming For You

The basic scenario: You have recently had to set down on a planet due to engine issues with your craft. Your respective House or Clan was notified before you made planet fall and they are responding, but it is going to take a month before the rescue party arrives.

A minor? problem: Due to an odd makeup in the atmosphere and a natural radiation coming from the planet, ALL COMMUNICATIONS TO AND FROM THE PLANET FROM SPACE ARE JAMMED. Therefore, you will not know when your help has arrived until they are on planet.

The main? problem: There is a very large detachment of one or more of the following already on planet: The First Order, The Rebel Alliance, or an aged and paranoid Battalion of Empire Soldiers that never learned they lost the war due to the communications issues. Your choice as to who is already there.

The other minor problem: They know something has crashed and are searching for it.

Your goal: What will you do until help arrives? Hide? Blend in? Attack? Claim the planet for the Brotherhood or your respective Clan or House? Decide to leave the life you have and become a civilian forever?

REMEMBER! We in the Brotherhood are trying to keep hidden from The First Order and the Rebel Alliance.

I wasn't sure what to call this, so I took the fact that there was a crash landing. I also had the events placed in a electronic journal which I wrote in as being sent.
