Ask Raxus Always Bet On a Sure Thing

[Jackie O]

Raxus - Warehouse District #16​

He was growing to like Imperial Space. It had a taste of Hutt Space to it, but it didn't smell quite as bad. Laws had been loosened, allowing for more...questionably legal establishments to pop up. Even the capital of Raxus wasn't immune. Jackie had heard of this warehouse in District 16 that had a little bit of everything.

As he walked in, music pumped as they were getting busy for the night. He saw people from all walks of life, from scum to Imperial Officers all mingling. He noticed someone handing out a bounty puck to someone at a corner table as he made his way to the bar.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, you are going to want to pay attention to this next fight! We got a crowd favorite returning from the dark forests of Endor! Give it up for FERALLLLL!" the announcer yelled from the center of the fighting ring in the middle of the room. The crowd went nuts as a stout Ewok jumped up into the ring, pulling at the metal bars as foam poured from his mouth.

"Let me get a beer." he said when the bartender came over to him. "This was going to be a great night." he said to himself, getting excited to see who his opponent would be.

[Sylas Fett]

Sylas didn't particularly appreciate Imperial space, but he would occasionally take on contracts for escorts or security for influential merchants. Since the treaty with the Hutts, there was a better business opportunity and especially since the announcement of the Grand Marshal of the Empire. While conflicts against the Jedi and the Sith were coming to an end, the one with the Hutts was just beginning, and there were credits to be made on both sides. Sylas wasn't going to miss this chance. So, he had gone to Raxus to get a feel for the situation and see what could be done. One of his contacts had pointed out a warehouse where business was thriving.
When he arrived there, the room was already well-filled, and the night was in full swing. To his great surprise, there was even an Ewok about to face a tattooed Gamorrean in the center of the warehouse. The room was truly lively, and alcohol flowed freely while business was being made in every corner.

The Mandalorian then headed to the bar; to start the night off right, a bit of drinking was in order. He took a seat next to a Chiss and ordered a beer from the bartender. "It's quite a humorous scene. Who are you betting on?" he said aloud to his neighbor as he took off his helmet.

"ANNNDDD IN THIS CORNER!" the announcer turned to face the other side of the ring where a tattoed Gamorrean huffed as the crowd turned its attention to him. "FROM THE SWAMPS OF GAMORR, JOHNNNNN!" he yelled, trying to make the awkwardly common name sound exciting.

Jackie laughed "Did they just say his name was John? I Love it!" he said as the bartender slid him a beer. He glanced over as someone spoke with him. The armored figure speaking so casually was kind of surreal to Jackie but he rolled with it. "100 credits on John. You in?" he asked as the fight was beginning to start.

He turned and leaned against the bar, tipping the bottle to his lips as he waited on the Mandalorian. He had never really met one before, but he knew one when he saw them. They were supposed to be a grouchy lot, but Jackie was about to see for himself before judging.
