Delicate Encounters: Rogue Jedi Order Training Mission
  • Posted On: Jul 6 2002 3:32pm
Please note: The situation has been changed from it's original design, as a result of certain circumstances brought to my attention.

Secure Ackbar Space Station


Location: Corellia System, Super Star Destroyer Tachyon

Target Location: Ackbar Space Station, orbitting Corellia

Objective: Secure the Ackbar Space Station from Renegade TNSO Forces

Team Groupings: Solo

Equipment: TIE Banes, Xerol Nightstinger sniper blasters, and whatever armaments you choose

Region Description: The Corellian system is, at it's core, largely a peaceful and controlled system. The planet Corellia, itself, serves as the capital of all the Republic, and so, is afforded a larger-than-normal amount of protection, in terms of fleets, soldiers, and starfighters. The Ackbar Space Station, named for the legendary Admiral Ackbar, serves as a command station for New Republic forces in the Corellian system.

Mission Description: Despite the protection laid upon the Corellia system, it seems we have a situation on our hands -- one my normal forces have been quite unable to resolve. A man, one who we suspect to be formerly in the service of the Naboo Sith Order, somehow snuck onto the station, and has barricaded himself in the command room, threatening to deactivate or even self destruct the station. Since then, he has used this position to force us to allow several other groups of men -- mercenaries, most likely, also ex-employees of the Naboo Sith Order -- to land on the station, walking with impunity among the soldiers defending the station -- who have, too, been forced into compliance. Many have been forced into secure holding cells. Should this terrorist destroy the station, the powerful armor it is constructed from may not discintigrate upon re-entry into Corellia's atmosphere. One of these fragments landing in a populated area on Corellia would cause a catestrophic explosion, killing millions.

This is an extremely delicate situation, one I trust only to my Rogue Jedi. You will be flying TIE Banes on your approach, and launching from the Tachyon. These are craft which I designed in my days as part of the Ziost Empire, many years ago. They are Imperial craft in nature, carrying the same TIE ball cockpit, with three wings facing outward. They can be cloaked, but should you be discovered, they may think you to be Imperial craft. Masquerade as this. When you reach the station, land in one of the unused shuttle bays -- it is unlikely our friend has taken control of all of them. Use stealth to neutralize whatever enemy forces you encounter, and make your way to the command room. Your Xerol Nightstinger rifles fire invisible blaster bolts, and are extremely deadly. The clip carries only enough power for five shots, however, and is slow to reload. If you fire, do not miss. Use these to take out the man barricaded in the command room, or use some kind of tactic -- whatever you can think up. Possibly, try venting air from the room, if you can't get a clear shot.

If you are discovered, millions will die.

The New Republic is counting on you. May the Force be with you.

Ren Janggar stepped out onto the flight dexk of the Tachyon ready for his first ever mission. He was excited to get underway. He had been studying various Tie fighter designs ever since he recieved his mission breifs so as to be well informed when embarking on the mission.

He walked over to the TIE bane he had been assigned for this mission, an Impressive craft that he knew had been designed by Master Jiren himself.

Ren climbed into the cockpit and gazed out of the viewport, finally, he was ready.

<!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> Corran had received his mission and had suited up. He felt good about this mission. It played a lot more to his talents than most missions. In this mission being able to deceive the eyes of the viewer was one of the most important things you can do. As he looked out across the hangar bay filled with TIE Banes he could see than Ren was suiting up. Whistiling to catch Ren's attention he shouted at him.<!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->

"Hey Ren! 100 Credits that I beat you to the station." he yelled

<!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> Without even waiting for a responce he ran across the flight deck towards the TIE Bane that had been assigned to him and jumped in the cockpit. He began startup and turned on his comm to Ren's frequency.<!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->

"So Ren, Do you accept my bet?" he asked

<font color=lime> "Your on." <font color=white> Laughed Ren as he boarded his TIE fighter. Ren flicked onto Corran's comm channel as his TIE bane hummed to life.

<font color=lime>"Last one there's a rotton Bantha!" <font color=white>Howled Ren as he kicked up the throttle.

<font color=gray>Suddenly, one of the TIE Banes spring to life, although no pilot was seen entering previously. Stepping from the shadows, Arrix smirks. He waves his hand and the cockpit to the TIE Bane that sprang to life opens. With another hand movement, a ladder floats over to the fighter and comes to a rest perched on the side of the TIE Bane.</font>

Betting, are we? Not very Jedi like, is it?<font color=gray>, a voice pops into the two Padawan's minds.

Arrix slowly walks over to the Bane. He climbs the ladder, not bothering to use his hands. He climbs into the cockpit and with a wave of his hand, the cokpit closes. He puts a hand over the dispaly system. Many images fly across the panel, schematics, diagonstics, and other images. All of them are going so fast if you blinked, you'd miss them. Finally, the images stop.
</font>

"Everything seems to be in order."<font color=gray>, Arrix says to himself.

Arrix switches on his comm, using his hands now, for all of the force usage had tired him slightly.
</font>

"Attention, all Jedi currently in their fighters. For those of you who may not know me, I am Arrix Stryker, Rogue Jedi Knight and one of the overseers of the mission. This mission does NOT have a green light yet. We will wait for twenty minutes for our fellow Jedi. After that we will leave, whether they are here. If at any time one of those who do not show decided to join us, they may do so." <font color=gray>, he says.</font>

Corran heard Arrix's message and quickly brought his TIE about to put it in orbit around the Tachyon. Reaching out in the force to Arrix he sent his on little message to him.

<!--EZCODE ITALIC START--> "I never saw anything about no betting in the jedi code did you?" And last I checked I only have to take orders from Master Jiren, Master Rakili, Master Somir and Master Hexyra. And using the force to do every little thing such as turning on a TIE isn't very jedi like either."<!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->

<font color=gray>Arrix smiled to himself inside his cockpit. So these Padawans DO have brains... he thought to himself.</font>

Alright, we're even, Corran, but I DO have strict orders FROM Master Jiren. If you don't like them, take it up with Master Jiren AFTER the mission.

<font color=gray>Arrix thought for a moment. Suddenly, an idea hit him and he switched back on his comm system.</font>

"After an interesting discussion with one of the Padawans, I don't think I should name names, I have decided to let all Padawans fly around a bit, and make sure that your ships are all operating correctly. This does NOT mean you have permission to leave the area around the Tachyon."

<font color=gray>Arrix sighed and switched off his comm system. He grabbed the throttle and pulled the ship into orbit around the Tachyon. He spinned around a bit, getting a feel for the TIE Bane he was in.</font>

Ren manouvered his TIE into orbit around the Tachyon, <font color=lime>"Time to find out what this contraption can do." <font color=white>Ren thought.

Pulling back on the stick, the TIE bane soared into a steep climb, getting enough height, Ren plunged the stick forward, sending his fighter speeding back down towards the Tachyon, then pulling up at the last second.

<font color=lime>"Woo yeah! These little things are pretty nimble, I could have some fun with one of these after the mission.

"I'll tell you what, Ren. You promise not to screw up on this mission, I'll get you a personal one."<font color=gray>, Arrix spoke through the comm system.

Arrix spun the fighter around and went into a steep dive, pulling out under the Tachyon, not by pulling upwards, but pushing the throttle farther. He was now upside down but he acted like he didn't notice. He let go of the throttle but it stayed still, being controlled through the force by Arrix. He got out a cigar and a lighter. He opened the lighter and flicked the switch, but nothing happened. He flicked it again. Nothing.</font>


"Aww damn. Anybody got a lighter? Mine's busted. Oh well."<font color=gray>, he said through the comm system.

Arrix conjured up a very small ball of flame with the force. He quickly lit his cigar and let the flame go, slightly tired from conjuring the flame and keeping his force grip on the throttle at the same time. He grabbed the throttle and pulled it back, climbing as he came out from under the Tachyon.
