Set during the time of Phantom Menace of Star Wars but some setting details have been changed in regards to Jedi, Sith, The Republic, Trade Federation, the Clone Wars, etc. I don't do this because I hate how anything was done but to try and provide some creativity and surprises to the quest.

EPISODE I

A long long time ago, in a galaxy far away...



Turmoil has engulfed the Galactic Republic.

The greedy Trade Federation has created blockades of deadly battleships to many of the minor member worlds of the Galactic Republic.
While the congress of the Republic endlessly debates this alarming chain of events, the Supreme Chancellor has secretly dispatched two Jedi Knights, part of a small religious sect, to bring peace and justice back to the galaxy. Their first stop is to the planet of Naboo to settle the conflict....

Obi-wan Kenobi sat in the back of the Republic shuttle with his master and teacher, Qui-gon Jinn. Their possessions were meager, wearing the brown robes of their order, their respective purses only held enough for the two of them for enough to feed and house them for a handful of days, and lastly clipped to their waist were weapons of legend, a lightsaber for each. It used to bother Obi-wan how little a Jedi had but as he had grown more and more used to the teachings and trappings of the Jedi it now didn't cause him concern. With their current mission acting as diplomats that shouldn't be a problem. Obi-wan asked, "Qui-gon, with all the resources the Supreme Chancellor has why did he ask you to go on this mission? Surely the Republic must have scores of diplomats and aids he could have sent."

Qui-gon said, "As many as the stars perhaps, but I have been a friend of his for a while and he considers me a valuable asset."

Obi-wan asked, "Does he believe in the Force?"

Qui-gon shook his head, "He doesn't but thinks himself very considerate for not holding it against me that I do."

Obi-wan said, "With all the things you can do with the Force Master Qui-gon couldn't you just show him it's real?"

Qui-gon shrugged, "I have shown him some things and told stories but he thinks I am playing tricks or embellishing things. It matters little at this point in our friendship."

Obi-wan asked, "Have you been on many diplomatic missions for the Republic?"

Qui-gon said, "A few, they are usually rather boring affairs. I'll talk to both parties and share what the Chancellor has told me and bring back what ever words they want shared. We'll be back in Coruscant before long."

Obi-wan said, "This seems like a bigger problem. The holo-net was saying the trade federation had blockades on over four dozen worlds and it seems like more are announcing this is happening to them every month. I don't understand what it is that the Trade Federation hopes to gain with all of this."

Qui-gon said, "I'm sure that will become clear over time."

The ship intercom crackles to life in their room, "Beginning boarding approach to the Trade Federation blockade ship. Looks like someone's willing to talk."

Qui-gon and Obi-wan got up from their seats and made their way to the shuttle cockpit. In the pilot seat was Captain Tull of the Galactic Republic Navy. A plain faced man with steely grey eyes and hair though Obi-wan thought the man didn't look much older than himself. In the co-pilot seat was a humanoid silver plated droid monitoring the displays that they had been introduced to earlier as S6-7N.

Obi-wan could tell that the captain was tense, his hand tightly gripping the throttle and the other lightly on the steering yoke. Obi-wan asked, "Did something happen?"

Captain Tull said, "When we were coming in they charged their weapons before trying to hail us. I hate coming to the Outer Rim. Never know if I'm being overly paranoid or properly cautious out here."

It was a tense couple of minutes as they set down in their assigned berth, waiting for them was a C protocol unit droid and some maintenance droids were on standby. Captain Tull pulled a lever and lowered the entry ramp, the relatively fresh air replaced with the stale air of the space station. Captain Tull asked the two Jedi, "How long you think this will take? Should I keep the engines hot?"

[] [Ship] We'll be done quickly - Be ready to take off at a moments notice and don't let those droids touch anything
[] [Ship] This could take a couple hours - Turn off the engines but don't stray to far from the ship while the droids refuel
[] [Ship] This will take some time - Take care of any maintenance and we'll get down to the surface in a day or two

Captain Tull said, "I'll do that. You two stay out of trouble."

Obi-wan said, "You as well."

The two of them exited the shuttle, they were greeted by the droid, "Welcome to Trade Federation Vessel 01977 currently in orbit around the planet Naboo. I am C7D1. If you could please provide proof of you're connection to the Republic Senate I will bring you to the highest ranking member of the Trade Federation currently on board this ship."

Qui-gon pulled out a platinum disc and showed it to the droid which stared at it for a few seconds before before it nodded its head, "Identification acknowledged. Please follow me. I will take you to the conference room."

With out looking back the droid began moving out of the docking bay as they were going down the halls, they were completely bare of any other people or droids. The only sounds they heard were the background noise common in any space station and the hiss of the automatic doors they were passing through. Eventually they arrived at the entrance of the conference room. The table in there looked like it could seat twenty people was bare, and a view port showed a view of the green and blue planet of Naboo down below. C7D1 asked, "Would you like me to get you something to drink or eat while you are waiting for the Trade Federation representative?"

Qui-gon shook his head indicating that they needed no such refreshment and the droid began walking down the hall away from them.

[] [Meeting] Both wait in the room for the Representative
[] [Meeting] Qui-gon will wait while Obi-wan explores the station
[] [Meeting] Both follow C7D1
[] [Meeting] Get back to the shuttle and go to Naboo to hear their side first
[] [Meeting] Write-in
