Fulcrum
Kaleesh. Mandalorian. Detective.
Another rainy Nar Shaddaa night.
That wasn't surprising, and it certainly wasn't a change from the past week. The entire hemisphere had been inundated in ongoing monsoons, casting every slab of duracrete and every pane of transparisteel to glisten with the oily rain. For most, it was an uncomfortable experience, hot and muggy. Thankfully, Fulcrum's beskar enabled him to withstand the weather better than most.
Perched on the edge of a fire escape, the Mandalorian watched the street below. The denizens of Nar Shaddaa passed to and fro, entirely and blissfully unaware of his presence above. They chattered and bickered amongst themselves in a dozen languages-- basic, Huttese, Sy Bisti, and some that Fulcrum had never even heard of-- as they went. Fulcrum paid close attention to each conversation that he could understand. In the line of detective work, sometimes, it wasn't enough to sit back and wait for the jobs to come to you. Sometimes you had to put an ear to the ground. Get out there. The city-- this city-- was like an animal. If you paid close attention, you could tell what was about to happen before it happened.
For now, he kept his eyes and ears peeled, his bone-white beskar glistening in the slick rain and neon lights.
