Since some people have not been at all the game, I figured I'd just sum up the last few games.

Feel free to add things If I've missed them

Our mission was to hunt down a Jedi. We found him and convinced him to go into hiding. We then went into some odd cave thing and killed a sith.

After that we got a mission to get the raspberry. A specialized sensor jammer that was going to be installed on The Prime. The sensor jammer makes The Prime invisible to small ships and difficult to detect for larger ships with respects to sensors. The raspberry will aid us in rescuing some refugees.

We then got a call from the Jedi we convinced to go into hiding that his hiding wasn't so good. After some fun on a station we went to some asteroid base and killed a sith.

When I am a guest at a convention I am there to entertain people and add to the fun they have at the event. thus, unless the game session is advertised as one where the objective is to kill the PCs--and I've done a few of those--I try to keep PCs alive. Of course if a player doesn't want to have his character survive, the natural selection process of the game environment will take over.

Jtraw's message to Harry's character:
(For argument sake, Harry's character forwarded the message to our intergalactic emails....Cheesy, but deal with it.)

"It's time to stick it to Boorka. From our time working together I remember your involvement in the New Refugee Relief Movement. Boorka has been using that as a front to trick the refugees by promising an alien sanctuary but then selling the refuges off as slaves once they are on Boorka's transports. We have to stop this. I have spoken to Drin (Captain of the Prime if you don't remember) and we have come up with a plan."

A day after we get the bar cargo Jtraw meets us in the mess hall of the Prime with Drin.

Drin: "After speaking with Jtraw we have come up with this. We are going to play the distraction game. The plan is to to piss off the empire so much that they are going to ignore The Prime rescuing the refugees and go after our small fighters. Our local informant has advised us that the Star Destroyer that guards the planet Nubia is being refitted. This means the cache of grain they have in orbital cargo containers is nearly unprotected. The planet does have a few TIE fighters stationed on the planet. You guys will fly in your ships and destroy as much of the cargo as you can before the TIEs can reach you. Rory will take the Nuclear Whistle, and Sabastion will take (his ship name here) and Jtraw will be flying his ship.

This should piss off the Empire enough that whenever our fighters enter another system they will focus their attention on the fighters while the Prime gets the refuges

This was also the game were Rory's Wookiee friend was killed and we met Randy's Wookiee master.

Where: Jedi Council Chambers on Yavin IV
Who: All members of the council are present including Kahn (Jim) who now has a place to sit.
Why: Discuss the Jyrovian Culture from the archives, plan next mission.

Wookiee (Translated): The Jyrovian population resembles humans with one major difference. The Jyrovian females have developed a scent gland that has been known to even attract males of different races. One of the few successful reconnaissance missions has uncovered a settlement alongside Fiddyment Creek named Lanemi that would be a good place to start first contact proceedings. At this time of year the people are celebrating Tinale. The ancient Jyrovians believed that the border between this world and the otherworld became thin on Tinale, allowing spirits (both harmless and harmful) to pass through. The family's ancestors were honored and invited home whilst harmful spirits were warded off. It is believed that the need to ward off harmful spirits led to the wearing of costumes and masks. Their purpose was to disguise oneself as a harmful spirit and thus avoid harm. This will make it easier for everyone to slip into town. The town itself is garrisoned by fifteen B1 series battle droids, ten B2 series and four droideka series battle droids. It is all ready setup by the New Republic for everyone to board escape pods and land a days travel away from Lanemi. Any questions?

The next morning Kahn (Jim) gets a beep on his com link.

Voice: This is Captain Fenrir of the Nuclear Whistle. I haven’t much time. I have on board some reinforcements and some information.

The Whistle lands just north of the temple. Fenrir, Sebastian, Rem, and four New Republic soldiers exit the Whistle. The soldiers walk up to Kahn and salute, Fenrir not used to this entire chain of command says oops, and then salutes Kahn. Almost the entire town watches the ship land. The four soldiers shuffle away from Rem.

Fenrir: General I bring bad news. The rumor of an alliance between the droid armies on Jyrova and The Etula is no longer a rumor. A small fleet of Etulan cruisers is approaching our blockade. I must take the Whistle back right away; our fleet is still heavily damaged from our own blockade run.

Rory: Fenrir take care of my ship.

Fenrir waves his hand in the air and says: Your ship? You lost it to me fair and square.

Rory: Funny

Fenrir: May the force be with you.

Rory chuckles a little: Get going ya pirate.

Fenrir then flies the Whistle back into space.

Pemi: Tuxani. Scouts have spotted a large group of droids on route to Lanemi. They are being lead by a few lizards looking creatures and a bug like guy with a mask on.

Other Notes: Saved a child from the river/creek, gained major support from the townspeople, other towns have revolted, easily defeated the advancing droids, Trando sith escaped, and Rem is kinda married

Game #1
Within minutes of our return from Maridun we are approached by General Crix Madine and Jarepi. The two quickly usher us into a briefing room.

Madine: “Jarepi has just explained that she has contact with her people and the town of Lanemi has been attacked and our Jedi force on the planet was overrun. The town suffered some heavy loses. It appears the droid army had one mission, to capture Tuxani. Our intelligence has determined he is being held at the base in Dachau. This base’s primary function is a hub for atmospheric ships. If we could capture this base we would be able to land a devastating blow to the droid army. Here is the plan; we have a map of the base thanks to the locals. We are going to sneak into the complex using the ventilation system. Kahn your mission will be to go into the complex and rescue Tuxani. Sebastian will be take control of the command center. Rem will disable the shield generator. If we can not capture the base then we are going to destroy it from orbit, the shield is protecting the base. Rory will cut off their reinforcements. Fenrir has been working with some new technology that will help you for these missions. Rem, Fenrir has developed a computer interface device that will help you with the computers on the base. (Game purposes +5 for use computer checks). Fenrir has also been working on the radio frequencies that are controlling these droids and has created a device that can scramble the radio frequencies causing minor confusion in the droids. (Game purposes – droids within 10m of the device will have a -2 to ALL actions for one minute, the device can only be used twice) That device is for you Sebastian. The last device is a super ion grenade which is for Kahn. (For game purposes the grenade is the same as a normal ion grenade but with a 10m radius.) Get aboard The Whistle and get to the planet asap.”

Figured I'd post the modifications so I don't forget.

Rem didn't take part in this mission.

The pilot of the Kharon (Kraz) joined us instead. His crew left him on Yavin after a delivery because they were not feeling so well. Kraz accepted the New Republics offer for the mission because the character wanted to make some extra money. The mission was a success and the base was captured. The next mission was to return Kraz to the Kharon

1030 Exp for that game

Game #2
Within minutes of our return from Maridun we are approached Jarepi and her two New Republic guards. She gives Rem a big hug and kiss. She looks up into Rem's eyes and there isn't a roll in the world that would fail to notice she is bored as hell.

The two guards look over at Rem and grunt a little showing no real respect for the senators husband.

Jarepi pulls Rem aside and whispers in his ear:
"Get me the hell out of here. These bureaucrats are driving me nuts, I want to get out and see the galaxy. I want to take a unexpected vacation to Naboo. I heard it is gorgeous there."

We didn't take a vacation, we were just returning the pilot of the Kharon to the The Harrin Trade Corridor.

This is the current status of this adventure.

Since we didn't have enough time for a full session all we did is a small battle rescuing the crew of the Kharon.

This adventure will continue with the following modifications:

If the next game Jim is there, then he shows up with the Prime after the short battle in space. He came when he received the distress call from the Kharon.

If the next game Joe is there, then he was in the Whistle this entire time.

If the next game Kyle is there, then he was in the Whistle this entire time.

If Bob wants to continue to play the Jedi then it is up to that character what he wishes to do after we land on the planet Harrin.

The mission is still to establish diplomatic communication with that planet.

Edgar - currently holds the title of ExCek (executive), which is the Proprietor of The Harrin Trade Corridor.

Tier - He currently holds the title of vExCek (vice executive), which is the Assistant Proprietor of The Harrin Trade Corridor.

The council members are to protect the Senator.

I wanted to add this detail that I keep putting off.

During the base mission the party was attacked by stormtroopers. The Empire (With its new Emperor Tarkin) has joined in the fight for the liberation of Jyrovia. It now stands as New Republic lead by the Jedi council against The Etula, The Droids of Jyrovia and the Empire. All for one little planet. Maybe there is more at stake here then meets the eye.

So that brings me to Emperor Tarkin. At the announcment of this news Anakin smashed the computer console he was sitting at.
He swears that Tarkin was on board the Death Star when it blew up and shows geniune fear at what devilish device Tarkin and his scientists will create. Tarkin looks a bit younger then he did in episode IV.

Other notes of interest.

Rage (Bob's Characters) has accepted the position of Commander on the Prime. He was also bitten by a zombie like person on Harrin. He has accepted Sebastian as his master to continue his force training.

The plague that started out on Harrin has spread quickly across the galaxy. Anakin Skywalker with the aid of (whoever is at the game) has set out on a mission to Maridun to seek Wag Too.

starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Wag_Too

The council and the rest of the universe for that matter are counting on Wag Too and his son to hopefully come up with a cure for this plague.

Something I forgot[/i]
I did say that Tier (Second in command on Harrin) was in custody, but I never said why. Tier was the person that released this plague on Harrin. Edgar was a figure head in their society and didn't really do anything. Tier was in charge the entire time. The mystic lady was actually part of an underground movement trying to stop the government. Like one of those conspiracy nuts, but she was actually correct, and now she is a zombie. She stole the key from Tier and that is why the guards were chasing her.

The Key
The key has magical properties depending on who holds it. Game terms:
Force Users get a -2 on all force checks but a +4 to resist all force checks and a +1 on attack rolls vs. zombies.
Non Force Users get a -/+X on all attack rolls but gain a -/+X to spread around to each defense. That number is X+2 and X+4 vs. zombies. For example, when Jim is holding the key he has the following +2 attack –4 reflex, vs. zombies he would get +4 attack –0 reflex. This is different per person. And for those people that feel I am railroading, if you bought it from her the bonuses would be higher.

The Dashade
It appears that the Etula have cloned a large number of Dashade with only one mission, kill anyone on the Jedi council. The ones we faced in the Cruddle Styx (Cantina) came with the Storm troopers and waited until night to spring their trap. Which wasn't much of a trap considering the entire place was getting over run by zombies. One was killed at the other two fled. This is truly a startling series of events.

starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Dashade

Holocrons
EACH member of the Jedi council has been given a blank holocron to pass on their training. Also the holocron that was training Sebastian is still missing. This holocron was said to be created by Darth Plagueis.

Travel Time
It took us 2 days and 14 hours to get to Harrin from Yavin.
It took us 2 days and 18 hours to get to Yavin from Harrin.

Rumors
Emperor Tarkin is a clone with the spirit of Darth Plagueis. He is also creating a new superweapon.

Charnoqs were a species of predatory animals native to the planet of Maridun. They looked like horned crocodiles with eight legs,and were known for their climbing and leaping abilities.

Takital were ritual battles conducted by various Amanin tribes on Maridun, organized in areas sacred to the Amanin. Their goal was to create a peace between the tribes.

Imperial General Ziering and his army unknowingly became involved in a Takital, when they trespassed into such an area. They gained respect from an Amanin tribe, when the force held out during two grueling days of combat.

Once out of hyperspace we faced off with a corvette and four tie fighters. Once the TIEs were destroyed the Corvette left the system. We landed on the planet and avoided a falling pod only to be ambushed by three Amanini. They keep saying Charnoq over and over again and pointed to one, which the party was able to defeat. Pemi accidentally walked off into a Takital which the party then became involved in. We escaped the battle and reached the town, found the elder and were able to find a way to slow the plague, not cure it.

Exp = 2500

We went to an unnamed planet (8 Hour Trip from Yavin) disguised as an Imperial inspection team. The original inspection team defected to the New Republic. The purpose of the mission was to gain any information about the Empires new Super weapon. We landed on the planet with no interruption from the officers on the base and then proceeded to search every room for information on this new super weapon. What we found was a bizarre cloning facility that appeared to be designed to create clones for slave labor for the new super weapon. We got some information and freed what clones/captives there and escaped back to Yavin.

The holocron

Ran on Feb 26th 2010
Exp 2280

We took the Prime to Kashyyyk where we boarded some public transports in hopes to be captured by Tandoshan slavers. The rumor was the holocron was on Trandosha. We boarded one public transport shuttle, and had a strike team board another. Once in space the shuttles were quickly ionized. The attack against the shuttles was lead by Bossk and the Houndstooth. As a show of force Bossk destroyed one shuttle then quickly destroyed the shuttle carrying our assault team. Each shuttle carried 60 passengers and two crew for a total of 124 people dead. A boarding party boarded our shuttle killing the co pilot and taking the ship into a mountain somewhere on Trandosha. Once inside the mountain we saw that the Tandoshan’s were mining the mountain with slave labor. The people on the shuttles were lined up and implanted with chips that exploded when they ran away too far. We attacked and took over the base; we were visited by the Sith Spirit we meet in the caves. He warned us about the sith that was possession of the holocron. We left the mountain and found ourselves pulled aside by Han Solo. He tracked Chewbacca to Trandosha after a botched mission to Corellia. Chewbacca was sold to Bossk and we found out that the Bossk was working with this sith. We found a few stragglers from the shuttles who died during a battle with some Trandoshans on the street. Just before that Rage had befriended a VERY friendly human female. We tracked the sith to a hanger and after a battle rescued Chewbacca and found the holocron killing Bossk in the process.

When I am a guest at a convention I am there to entertain people and add to the fun they have at the event. thus, unless the game session is advertised as one where the objective is to kill the PCs--and I've done a few of those--I try to keep PCs alive. Of course if a player doesn't want to have his character survive, the natural selection process of the game environment will take over.
