Hundreds of years after an event that was known as the 'Battle of Yavin', after the return of the Jedi and the fall of the Sith Empire, "peace" was once again restored to the galaxy... Or so it seemed.
What seemed like peace, due to the careful chosen words of ignorant politicians, was in fact a disastrous situation waiting to get out of hand. It all started on Coruscant, when the criminal organisations of the Undercity took over the entire Lower Section of Coruscant. Reports kept coming in about terrorist attacks from all over Galactic City, but the Galactic Senate were quick to answer them, claiming that is was a situation "not to worry about". The Jedi High Council however, decided to increase the security on the senatorial body and investigate the Lower City. Their findings soon revealed that this situation was indeed as they had predicted: uncontrollable.
Eventually, several senators abandoned their duties in Coruscant and moved off-world, causing the Senate to become crippled. The galaxy was shocked by the response of the Republic regarding the situation in the Galactic Core, but weren't even aware of what was happening on the other side, far into the Outer Rim and on the edge of Wild Space: an old enemy had awaken in the Mandalorians, a culture driven by war and violence. They appeared in great numbers, all under the warbanner of Clan Varad and started their conquest through the galaxy, marching on towards planets in the Outer Rim to destroy and claim everything in their path. After the fall of Taris, Yavin, Mygeeto and the surrounding star systems, they enslaved their people and began building massive weapons forges and prepare stations. This could only mean war!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- >>> OOC INFORMATION: Dit is de allereerste issue van de Reconciliation era, de eerste era in de tijdlijn van Leet SWRP. Deze issues zal voornamelijk de "Rise of the Clan Varad" verhalen. De galaxy voor het eerst kennis met de Clan Varad, een meedogenloze Mandalorian clan die uit is op verwoesting en totale overname van de galaxy. Zij vallen planeten in de Outer Rim aan en bereiden zich voor op een grote oorlog. Dat terwijl Galactic City op instorten staat na de terroristische aanvallen van criminele organisaties uit Coruscant's onderwereld. Het is een tijd van onzekerheden, nu ook de Senate lijkt te bezwijken onder de druk.
ISSUE I 一 STATE OF EMERGENCY
EVENT DESCRIPTION
When the Senate was left weak and unstable, the criminal factions of Coruscant's Underworld saw their chance to infiltrate the Senate District. A renegade group of pirates and terrorists attacked the Senate Dome, setting a bomb off to explode and claimed the lives of multiple senators and members of the Jedi Order. Without the ruling body of the Senate, Galactic City was doomed to fall. After the bombing, the crooks retreated within the leftovers of the Senate District and continued their spree of chaos. A citizen of Galactic City claimed that he had saw at least one person carrying a lightsaber, perhaps the leader of the group.
>>> OOC INFORMATION: Dit is de eerste issue van de allereerste act, die zich afspeelt in de Reconciliation era. Een criminele bende was de oorzaak van een terroristische aanslag op de Senate Building in Galactic City, Coruscant. Met deze actie zorgden zij voor een stressvolle situatie voor de Republic, terwijl er aan de andere kant van de galaxy planeten ten onder gaan aan de Mandalorians. De conclusie van deze issue wordt besloten in een event-scene.
CONCLUSION The Jedi Order reacted to the disappearances of their fallen comrades. After their evecuation to Dantooine, they deployed a squadron of Jedi into Galactic City to clear the field of any hostility. They eventually confronted the group responsible for the bombing of the Senate Tower. As they engaged into battle, it soon became clear that the leader and mastermind behind the bombing was in fact a skilled rogue Jedi who had fallen to the Dark Side, named Allen Sempus. When the Jedi attempted to take in the dark Jedi, he resisted and fled the scene. The Jedi were able to arrest his companions and further cleared the area, restoring the peace in the Senate District and Upper Levels again.
ISSUE II 一 HUNT FOR THE DARKSABER
EVENT DESCRIPTION
Shortly after the events that had happened on Coruscant, the Jedi managed to trace Allen's track all the way to Dromund Kaas in the Outer Rim section. The pieces of the puzzle slowly came together as word got out that a small band of smugglers had gathered crucial information regarding the location of the Darksaber, a legendary and long-forgotten artifact. Not only Allen, but also the Republic affiliated organization of EXALT and the desirous Diablo Varad, clanleader and warlord in his own murderous campaign throughout the Outer Rim, had shown great interest into finding this ancient weapon. After his search for information, the Mandalorian warleader sided with treasure hunter Nathan Drake and also rushed towards the Dromund System. And if that is not enough: from the shadows of Coruscant's criminal underworld had risen another key-figure in this hunt for the Darksaber and his name is Nadruk Xoinz.
>>> OOC INFORMATION: Een gerucht dat de Darksaber is gevonden op Dromund Kaas heeft de aandacht van zowel Allen Sempus als de EXALT faction, krijgsheer Diablo Varad en de crime-lord Nadruk Xoinz getrokken, die allemaal bereid zijn een poging te wagen om dit wapen te bemachtigen, koste wat kost. Naast hen zullen er vele anderen die proberen om de Darksaber te vinden. Nathan Drake, die zich opgaf als gids, zal hen leiden naar Dromund Kaas voor een epische treasure hunt. De conclusie volgt in een event-scene.
CONCLUSION The dubbed organization EXALT was first to deploy commanding officer Cade Tennant on Dromund Kaas, soon followed by the rest. Upon entering a tomb that belonged to an ancient Dark Lord of the Sith named Varym Pryde and was believed that it held the Darksaber, they found that it was empty. The three separate parties met inside the main burial chamber, where the situation slowly escalated into a devious conflict between Allen and Nadruk, who had encountered each other before on Terrelia. Eventually, Nadruk was forced to surrender to Allen's power and was allowed to be taken prisoner by Diablo Varad. Thereafter, all parties split up and went their separate ways.
ISSUE III 一 BATTLE OF TERRELIA
EVENT DESCRIPTION
While Nadruk Xoinz remained in captivity of the vicious Diablo of Clan Varad, the Republic became suspicious of his undertakings on the planet Terrelia: they had received intel that the crime-lord had taken over Terrelia and was using his own company BlasTech Industries to build a personal armada. In an attempt to bring down the facilities of BlasTech on Terrelia, it soon came to notice that Mandalorian troops were sent beforehand to secure the production of arms and Republic ships formed a blockade in Terrlia's orbit. With the blockade in place, the Republic fleet hoped to prevent the Mandalorians from leaving Terrelia and they laid still, waiting.
>>> OOC INFORMATION: De Mandalorians hebben controle over Terrelia en zijn begonnen met het creëren van een groot legioen. Dankzij de blokkade van de Republic zitten zij echter vast op de planeet en zijn zij gedwongen hulp in te schakelen van buitenaf. Mocht er een strijd zich uitbreiden, zal dit op de cliënt met het Spacebattle systeem of het Skirmish systeem geroleplayed worden, afhankelijk van de komende roleplay-acties in de cliënt of op het forum.
CONCLUSION As the Republic expected, Mandalorian reinforcements in the form of a naval fleet would soon appear before the orbital blockade. to face off against the republic blockade. The few battleships that were present on Terrelia's surface were quick to join their comrades in space, as both fleets collided in a full-scale battle without drawbacks, hesitations or mercy for each other whatsoever. When the Republic took down the Mandalorian flagship containing Diablo Varad himself, the battle came to an end as the remaining Mandalorian forces gathered and fled into hyperspace.
ISSUE IV 一 FACE-OFF WITH NENXUS
EVENT DESCRIPTION
Following the Battle of Terrelia, the hunt for the Darksaber continued. Valuable information had led Diablo Varad and his associate Nathan Drake into the depths of Korriban, where they met with Allen Sempus. They began their search for clues leading to the ancient weapon, unaware of EXALT following their tail. After retrieving several clues from the tomb, all parties made their way to New Alderaan. Believing that the prize awaited them underneath the ruined palace of House Exillus, they delved into an old vault system which allegedly covered a total of three cubic miles. Upon entering the vault system and finishing the hunt for the Darksaber, a dark fourth presence revealed itself to them as it completely destroyed the entrance through which they came in, trapping them inside.
>>> OOC INFORMATION: Allen Sempus, Diablo Varad en de aanwezige EXALT/republic-leden zitten nu vast in de kluis van Exillus. De vierde aanwezigheid heeft de kluis gesloten en versterkt de muren met een (bijna) ondoorbreekbare energieconcentratie. De conclusie van deze ACT vervolgt in een event-scene.
CONCLUSION The fourth presence presented itself as Nenxus, an ancient Sith entity that had been by the Exillus' side from the start. He first explained to the group how the different locations and clues leading to the vault were tests; he said that only an experienced carrier of the Light Side of the Force could possibly complete these and that person happened to be present among the EXALT party. He then continued to explain that Allen Sempus was a descendant of the Exillus family and that he also was meant to enter the vault. After hearing Nenxus' story, Allen stood before an important choice: either become an EXALT member like his father had intended or continue to walk down the path of the Sith. Allen refused to join EXALT though; armed with the legendary sword Vape and its power to consume souls, Nenxus unexpectedly charged in on him and attempted to deliver a fatal blow towards Allen's heart. When he failed to strike Allen down, Nenxus faced the entire party in a fierce conflict. In the end it was Allen who managed to steal Vape from his hands and kill the ancient Sith Lord with his own blade, thus securing the vault and trapping Nenxus' soul.
ISSUE V 一 BATTLE OF ILUM
EVENT DESCRIPTION
By the time the Mandalorian soldiers of the Clan Varad barged into the Inner Rim, they had already gained enough resources and interstellar might to form a big threat towards the Republic. But when the Darksaber fell into the hands of the vicious warleader Diablo Varad, he was declared the new absolute leader of the Mandalorian war-caste on their homeworld of Mandalore and from that moment on they deemed him Manda'lore the Sagacious. Under his command, a legion of soldiers moved out swiftly to strike Ilum. While the Mandalorians rushed towards the Ilum System, the Republic and the sub-faction EXALT had already prepared and sent out a fleet of their own. But there is another presence on the battlefield: an ancient Sith Meditation Sphere appears out of nowhere, close but hidden from sight...
>>> OOC INFORMATION: Diablo Varad is verkozen tot Manda'lore, mede-dankzij het verkrijgen van de Darksaber. In een poging om Ilum over te nemen komt hij echter opnieuw tegenover de Republic en EXALT te staan. De legers bereiden zich voor op een groot gevecht, onwetend dat er een onbekende Sith Meditation Sphere op de loer ligt. De conclusie volgt in een event-scene.
CONCLUSION Both parties, consisting of the Republic and EXALT versus the Mandalorians and a few mercenaries, engaged in a devastating battle through the Ilum system. The Republic and EXALT ships flew in formation, as they utilized an advantageous strategy that would lead to the downfall of many Mandalorian ships. Eventually, the EXALT ships moved in on the Mandalorian flagship, containing Mand'alor the Sagacious, ultimately destroying his vessel. While EXALT retreated from the battlefield temporarily, the mysterious Meditation Sphere that had been observing the battle from the shadows of a nearby star, suddenly appeared above the remaining fleets. Following to it's sudden appearance, both the Republic and the Mando soldiers were forced to flee the battlefield and ejected hundreds of escape pods towards Ilum's surface. While the battle continued on the ground, the unknown pilot of the Sith Meditation Sphere quickly scavenged the leftover spacecraft and disappeared from sight, thus leaving the parties stranded on the planet, together with the EXALT party who would soon join them. As they engaged further into battle, commanding EXALT officer/Jedi Knight Cade Tennant and Jedi Padawan Lukas Vion both discovered two infiltrators among the Mandalorian soldiers: Allen Sempus and Lithium, his personal apprentice. Surprisingly, they were quickly brought down and taken in by the Jedi Order. On the other side of the battlefield, Jedi Knight Alak Wasi struggled in a fight against the Mand'alor, but would soon notice that they could not resist the majority of the Mandalorian forces and the power of the Darksaber. The Jedi and the Republic soldiers accepted their defeat and retreated from Ilum's battlefield, leaving the planet open to Mandalorian subjugation.
ISSUE VI 一 THE WYTHERN DISASTER PT. I
EVENT DESCRIPTION
Sith Master Allen Sempus and Sith Apprentice Lithium were held on Coruscant, where they had undergone questioning by the Jedi. Refusing to reveal information about their intentions and activities, the Sith both sat quiet. They knew that they didn't have to fear. The darkness had engulfed and surrounded them already, literally: dark clouds filled the sky of Galactic City and on his tail the Meditation Sphere from the Battle of Ilum, followed by a fleet of stolen battleships. A frightening broadcast was launched on all media screens, revealing the face of an ancient Sith Lord, Wythern Delacroix. It was only a matter of time before the Jedi Order of Telos IV had gathered a strike force of Jedi and launched their shuttle towards the Heart of the Republic, their main objective being; to eliminate this heinous evil!
>>> OOC INFORMATION: Wythern Delacroix, een Sith Lord uit het verleden en verantwoordelijk voor het kapen van Republic en Mandalorian battleships tijdens de Battle of Ilum, is teruggekeerd van zijn schuilplaats en bedreigd Coruscant. Terwijl er in Galactic City wederom chaos heerst, staan Allen Sempus en Lithium klaar om te ontsnappen. De Jedi is ingelicht over de situatie en is op weg naar Coruscant. De conclusie volgt in een event-scene.
CONCLUSION Utilizing his Sith Magic over the surface of Coruscant, Wythern Delacroix summoned Force Storms from the dark clouds. Thunder struck down everywhere, inflicting major damage to the city and its inhabitants. A squadron of Jedi under command of Cade Tennant and Alak Wasi led the remaining Jedi reinforcements to the battlefield. Where small groups of Jedi attempted to evacuate the people and rid the sky of its Sith Magical influence, others like Alak Wasi and Cade Tennant engaged into battle with the invading foes. When they directed their attacks straight towards Wythern, he was supported by Allen Sempus and Lithium, who escaped their incarceration. After the evacuation had succeeded, the Jedi retreated their forces from the battlefield and departed back towards Telos IV.
ISSUE VII 一 THE WYTHERN DISASTER PT. II
EVENT DESCRIPTION
Jedi Knight and leader of the EXALT organization Cade Tennant, driven by a tempting urge to investigate more on the Sith Order, took off in a starcruiser to scout the terrain of Galactic City. After the invasion of the Sith warrior force and the retread of the Jedi, the planet was overthrown by Sith Lord Wythern Delacroix. The City of Spires was now his domain. Upon crash-landing between the tall towers of the city, Cade quickly sent out a warning to the Jedi High Council, who would soon send reinforcements to end this conflict.
>>> OOC INFORMATION: Cade Tennant is er op uit gegaan om de situatie op Coruscant waar te nemen, maar wordt uit de lucht getrokken door Sith Magic. Hij waarschuwt hierbij de Jedi Order, die hun beste mannen sturen om Wythern voor eens en altijd uit te schakelen. De conclusie volgt in een event-scene.
CONCLUSION His call for aid would soon be heard as assisting Jedi Alak Wasi and Vitas Tarimo arrived to support Cade Tennant. But they were not the only reinforcements: Nadruk Xoinz, supported by a few BlasTech mercenary soldiers, entered the battlefield to aid the Jedi in eradicating Wythern as well. They fought a fierce battle against the crushing powers of the Dark Side. Caught by the momentum, Wythern staggered and received a fatal strike to the heart, delivered by Cade. Followed by the beheading sweep of Alak Wasi, Wythern's body collapses and the Coruscant is immediately released from its Dark Side bounds. Wythern Delacroix was slain and once again, Galactic City was free.
