Star Wars: Dreams of Destiny

Chapter 2 (cont'd)



Session IV

(3) Selona 11 - (3) Selona 15, 44 BBY



The party lands on Sriluur, an arid backwater planet in Hutt space inhabited primarily by Weequay and Houk clans. After a little fracas with some local Houks, and a spot of gathering information through a local computer network, the party rents speeder bikes and makes for the capital Meirm City. An encounter with a pack of velocigriffs proves harrowing. On arriving at Meirm city, the party makes contact with a Twi'lek Republic agent named Lyn Me. She has made contact with an associate of Booster Reece's and becomes a key member of the investigation.



Session V

(3) Selona 15 - (4) Selona 16, 44BBY



Booster's friend, Danon Leyke, had a very impactful data disk that features key intelligence about a galactic conspiracy involving the Stark Commercial Combine and the blight throughout the Outer Rim, but he received a clandestine message from Booster to meet at the main Quay temple in Meirm City. As the Jedi Masters were following a lead (a false one, it turns out), the rest of the party chases and finds him at the holy site. The dimly lit obsidian temple contained several holos of the moon Quay and Sriluur wolves, along with some really creepy music. As Danon attempted to make contact with Booster, the trap was sprung, and parishioners attacked in the main temple hall. Along with the priest, there were Quay assassins, under the direction of a new face, a Rodian in a purple business suit with a pair of nasty dart launchers. The Rodian Scoundrel Suweedo and the Quay priest (a noble) proved dangerous opponents almost killing the Twilek and the Clawdite, but they were handled. Unfortunately, Suweedo's brother Ruweedo, seeing that Suweedo was unable to recover the disk, ceased waiting in their ship and blasted off into space with Booster Reece in tow.

Session VI

(4) Selona, 44BBY

Lyn Me and Ash were taken to a local emergency room, and revived. The group reconnected with the Masters and raced to the hangar where their ship had landed. They arrived only to find huge docking clamps on the ship and many Houk thugs and mercenaries waiting with deadly intent. The battle in the open air hangar was intense, and turning our heroes' way when a group of security droids lead by a Dark robed lightsaber-wielding force-user intent on the group. The Dark Jedi brought haunting memories of the "Institute" that had imprisoned the Clawdite force adept Ash, for such would have been his fate had he not escaped. Even the great Leonidus was hard-pressed in this battle. Dooku demonstrated his great strength in the force using the environment against the villains. Jaden was able to release the clamps and everyone scurried aboard while the Jedi with a little help from Ash finished off the Dark force-user.

As the group rocketed off the planet of Sriluur, an uncertain future awaited them. The data disk implicated the SCC in the blight, but the researchers involved faded into the galactic underworld during the onset of the Stark Hyperspace War. On a personal level, Would Neomah and T'aan excel in their Jedi training, balance their friendships, and loyalty to the Republic? Would Jaden ever find his captive father Booster? Could Ash ever come to grips with the torturous horrors and mental conditioning he had experienced and unravel the mystery of the "Institute?" Only time will tell...

T'aan Devos Jedi 2 - 3,431
Neomah Jedi 2 - 3,431
Jaden Reece Scoundrel 2 - 3,431
Ashton Wiesel Scoundrel 2 - 3,431
Lyn Me Scout 1 - 1,349
