11 Elona, 25 ABY - Csaplar, Csilla, Unknown Regions
Allanar found what he expected to find in the bedroom of the Chiss home, though it was no less saddening when he found it. Likely the wounds were still warm from the lightsaber blade that murdered the poor woman, though perhaps that was an assumption he shouldn't make. None the less, the woman had been killed by a dark force that was certainly connected to the events at hand, he was less than an hour late to prevent this foul act. He had little time to ponder what could have been, or even what would come next when his danger sense alerted him of impending danger.
Allanar first reached for his comlink to communicate with Akea, who he first sensed was in danger, but never reached the device before his own danger became evident. Allanar turned quickly as he heard his own com chirp briefly to alert him of the message from Renora, he had no time or need for the message as he broke into an immediate stride towards the outer wall. He turned the corner quickly as he exited the bedroom, spinning around the corner into the hall as he lowered himself and pivoted on the balls of his feet sending him quickly towards the outer wall in a dead sprint.
As he dashed quickly across the hall he focused the force in his body, drawing the energy into his muscles and gathering it to enhance his body to deal with an impeding threat. As he reached the outer wall, without breaking stride, Allanar leaped through the front window of the home with his fists extended forward to break harmlessly through the glass. Allanar landed with an athletic roll to his feet, his force and visual senses scanning the area for the exact threat barring down on him as he continued to distance himself from the house until he could identify a safe distance from the home and a target to confront.
Allanar would either continue to take movement actions away from the house if it appears it is a danger to be near it (if it is about to explode or something) or come to a pause outside of it and confront whatever threat is there. (Join battle)
Enhance Attributes: Control + Enhance = 3 + 3: 7, 4, 9, 10, 1, 6; 4 successes. (I think we discussed this briefly, but like many of our force powers a system has not been settled on. I think what we discussed was that the force user rolled Control + Enhance and gained a number of physical attribute dots for the scene equal to successes divided by two, rounded up. This power may or may not cost a willpower point to use. Obviously we should probably settle this before continuing the scene. If my suggestion stands, Allanar would have two dots to place in physical attributes for the scene. (Max in single attribute should probably be capped by control rating.)

Allanar vacated the home in an instant. Not sure where exactly the threat was, he made a move for a more open field, the best way to get a grip on the situation. ((awareness roll, success)) Just before crashing through the window, Allanar heard another window shatter from the bedroom he just left. ((athletics roll, success)) He burst through the front window and landed flawlessly on the paved roadway in front of the apartment. Allanar took a quick look around to get his bearings on the situation. The streets were clear of vehicles and civilians, but standing on the roof above the front door of the apartment was a Chiss male looking down at the street, his gaze fixed on Allanar. His red eyes narrowed and he leapt into the air, his lightsaber igniting mid-flight, in an attempt to bring his lightsaber down on Allanar in the middle of the street.
Allanar Join Battle: Sense + Divination + Wits + Awareness: 2, 8, 6, 10, 2, 3, 8, 4, 2, 3, 3: 4 successes
Allanar should receive +4 bonus dice for the Lightning Reflexes Feat. Brian can you add those in and change the reaction count accordingly?
Battle Order
- Chiss 1: Tick 1 (in bedroom)
- Chiss 2: Tick 4 (split actions, Force Jump/Lightsaber attack at Allanar)
- Allanar: Tick 4
((Regarding Enhance Attribute: how does this force power work? A successful roll increases all physical attributes by 1 for the scene? Or is it a shorter duration, increasing it by the number of successes for a specific action (breaking a window)?))

Adjusted reaction count, with Lightning Reflexes considered. Good catch.
Allanar Join Battle: Sense + Divination + Wits + Awareness + Lightning Reflexes: 2, 8, 6, 10, 2, 3, 8, 4, 2, 3, 3, 2, 3, 7, 3: 5 successes
Battle Order
- Chiss 1: Tick 1 (in bedroom)
- Allanar: Tick 3
- Chiss 2: Tick 4 (un-declaring actions since it's not his turn yet)
