Mission Report 3943 BBY Q2
Mission 1 (The Core, Councilor Mira, 1 Jedi Consular, 1 Jedi Sentinel, 1 Jedi Guardian, 4 Padawans)
Councilor Mira
I had hoped to try and recover from our failure by helping just to rebuild the buildings destroyed after that-
Hh.
After we failed. Unfortunately, it's not to be: bits of the pieces of the ship are still intact enough to arc electricity around, and they're right in the way of the work crews.
We will remove them.
Mission 2 (The Mid-Rim, Councilor Bastila Shan, Consular Atris, 2 Jedi Sentinels, 3 Jedi Guardians, 6 Padawans)
Councilor Bastila Shan
A...delicate situation has developed on the Mid-Rim worlds of Gara, Chuga and Desra. During the Great Hyperspace War, Gara allied themselves with the Sith and was their agent to occupy the aforementioned worlds, which were themselves allied to the Jedi. Though, in the end, they failed, millions died in the war that followed.
Now the two are planning a diplomatic visit to try and normalize relations further after tensions during the Mandalorian Wars that never quite came to blows. We are to help lube up the proceedings, but this may prove difficult.
Mission 3 (The Outer Rim, Councilor Atton Rand, 3 Jedi Consulars, 3 Jedi Sentinels, 5 Padawans)
Knight Zez Kyrido
Oh the fascinating things you'll see on the Outer Rim.
For instance, a Cult dedicated to Revan the Liberator on an otherwise uncontacted planet that was, well, liberated during the Mandalorian War. Which would not be a problem, except somehow a Dismalist schismatic has taken root, preaching the "balance" of Revan. Pure Bantha Fodder, but the locals including the Force Sensitives are proving easily seduced by the ideals.
This may be a problem.
Mission 4 (The Colonies, Councilor Visas Marr, 4 Jedi Sentinels, 4 Padawans)
Councilor Visas Marr
Always echoes. From every deed, good and bad. But not every echo is as terrible as that which eternally runs throughout Meetra.
Consider, for instance, freeing a world from pirate siege. Portentous, and noble; but it has its effects. Among them mostly for the good: supplies, art, and relief traveling to a world which, for decades, had been trapped.
Among those echoes? The Warlord Ushragan was forced, finally, to flee to his stronghold again. If we can capture him, that will mean a great many wrongs set right and enough information to set aflame the entire Outer Rim Slave Network. The only problem is a small army of mercenaries stands between he and we. It will require cunning to claim him, not brute force.
But perhaps...Force, will suffice.
Mission 5 (The Expansion Region, Grandmaster Bao-Dur, 4 Jedi Guardians, 2 Jedi Consulars, 2 Jedi Sentinels, 6 Padawans )
Grandmaster Bao-Dur
Something isn't right here. I feel a presence, as I have never felt before. It is as if a world...dies, in them, every moment; or they die, and the world perishes with them.
But it is not merely like us, whatever it is, I can tell you that much.
Mission 6 (Councilor Juhani, Councilor Mical, 3 Sentinels, 1 Guardian, and 1 Consular)
Councilor Juhani
We have made contact with one of the Syncretic Cults. They do not quite seem to believe their good fortune. Not that I dislike receiving hospitality, but it is strange how almost...desperate and cloying they seem for our approval. Something is wrong.
Mission 1 (The Core, Councilor Mira, 1 Jedi Consular, 1 Jedi Sentinel, 1 Jedi Guardian, 4 Padawans)
Councilor Mira
Well, aside from a few electrical burns and having to try and choke out a livewire by myself, so far things are alright.
Mission 2 (The Mid-Rim, Councilor Bastila Shan, Consular Atris, 2 Jedi Sentinels, 3 Jedi Guardians, 6 Padawans)
Councilor Bastila Shan
There is a problem. The ambassadors' sons were found in flagrant, together; the two are threatening to scuttle talks, unless someone can throw something in their way, and soon.
Mission 3 (The Outer Rim, Councilor Atton Rand, 3 Jedi Consulars, 3 Jedi Sentinels, 5 Padawans)
Knight Zez Kyrido
There is something weak about these people. Their connection to the Force, the power they can wield, it isn't as it should be. Most of them should be capable of tossing me around like a ragdoll, but for some mysterious reason the most they have hitherto proven capable of is the most basic of work, which can be powered through with enough precision. Fortunate, as about three quarters of the Cult want to burn me even as a fourth actually pays heed to what I say about Revan.
Mission 4 (The Colonies, Councilor Visas Marr, 4 Jedi Sentinels, 4 Padawans)
Councilor Visas Marr
Ushragan expects the roar of a lion and the scream of a lightsaber.
Instead he will find the whisper of the wind.
Kreia's holocron has proven most helpful in methods to sneak past droids, even ignoring the glorified torture beam she was "hypothesizing" at the time the holocron was born. Apparently she developed it during the Mandalorian Wars-- the fancy cameras they use on their helmets was very good practice for tricking the supposedly untrickable inorganic matter.
I can only hope to be her equal.
Mission 5 (The Expansion Region, Grandmaster Bao-Dur, 4 Jedi Guardians, 2 Jedi Consulars, 2 Jedi Sentinels, 6 Padawans )
Grandmaster Bao-Dur
What would you do if an entire celestial object was evil?
That is not, I repeat not, a hypothetical. We have discovered a new world, where a small moon and its inhabitants are threatening the locals of an underdeveloped planet. They are a hivemind, biological creatures living in a terrible symbiosis with the blasted moon's surface.
Sometimes it is subtle, hacking into travel satellites to lure travelers to a grisly end.
Other times it is using ancient secrets of the Dark Side to drive an several towns mad all at once in an orgy of violence.
I killed a planet once; Force, do not make me do it again.
Mission 6 (Hutt Space Councilor Juhani, Councilor Mical, 3 Sentinels, 1 Guardian, and 1 Consular)
Councilor Juhani
Enforcers. Slave catchers, prettied up and told to enforce the brutal whims of their bosses, given a badge and a gun and an ego. Right now, on their way here.
I realize the Senate prefers noninterference in this matter, but it will be a cold day somewhere very hot before I sit back and let these people be slaughtered. You can chastise me if you'd like later.
Mission 1 (The Core, Councilor Mira, 1 Jedi Consular, 1 Jedi Sentinel, 1 Jedi Guardian, 4 Padawans)
Councilor Mira
We have succeeded at cleaning the area. The results will be smelted down and used in reopening parts of the Coruscant Temple.
(+10 Coruscant, +10 PP)
Mission 2 (The Mid-Rim, Councilor Bastila Shan, Consular Atris, 2 Jedi Sentinels, 3 Jedi Guardians, 6 Padawans)
Councilor Bastila Shan
I decided my good name was worth less than peace between the stars, and so convinced the ambassadors that I was at fault by facilitating the matter. As I hoped, they are more busy insulting me than they are yelling at each other, though it is very embarrassing personally and for the order.
(-5 PP)
Mission 3 (The Outer Rim, Councilor Atton Rand, 3 Jedi Consulars, 3 Jedi Sentinels, 5 Padawans)
Knight Zez Kyrido
The Force is many things: beautiful, wise, just and true.
The one thing it is not, is indecisive. And so as these people attempted to wield both the vile, scum-covered underbelly of the Dark Side and the Real Force they found nothing but failure. Anger drove out joy, hate love, and fear, wisdom. So in the end they knelt and accepted the Truth of Revan: no-one may serve two masters.
Either a Knight or a Lord, righteous or unrighteous, all must make the choice. The writings of Revan, compiled during the early phases of the Mandalorian war and before he left are even now being taken to their planet, to be studied. In time they may fully join the Order.
(+15 Knowledge)
Mission 4 (The Colonies, Councilor Visas Marr, 4 Jedi Sentinels, 4 Padawans)
Councilor Visas Marr
We have succeeded. He is on his way to Soccorro, where they are most eager to take from him all manner of knowledge.
Mission 5 (The Expansion Region, Grandmaster Bao-Dur, 4 Jedi Guardians, 2 Jedi Consulars, 2 Jedi Sentinels, 6 Padawans )
Grandmaster Bao-Dur
I told them. I broadcast to the entire moon, what would happen: that I would scorch their flesh. That I would burn their atmosphere off. Gravity itself would crush them to paste in a single, terrible moment.
So it fled.
I have never, not once, forgotten the construction of the Mass Shadow Generator. Just this time, it was turned to good.
The locals are very confused that an entire moon has disappeared. I have told them nothing. Fortunately, the hateful moon had not been near enough for its gravity to become a necessity; the Force was strange in that one.
(+5 PP)
Mission 6 (Hutt Space, Councilor Juhani, Councilor Mical, 3 Sentinels, 1 Guardian, and 1 Consular)
Councilor Juhani
The Enforcers took one look at us and decided they weren't being payed enough. We have, therefore, made real, friendly contact with one of the cults.
(Made contact with cult)
--
Bao-Dur's PP is because he had to pull the Threatened War Crime Card to win, not exactly a non-controversial move to the Senate.
(OOC It was an easy check, hence the reward)
