Trials of Loyalty
Attack on Port Ol'Val
Col’rah, Leader of Oblivion Brigade, which served as Arcona’s Black Ops team, was on duty at Bulkhead Maximum Security prison below the mines of Port Ol'val. He notices intruders and starts to take action. He trusts in his partner, Shinn Ragga, to help him with the invaders, but is betrayed with a stun-bolt to the back of the head. Oblivion Brigade were the most loyal members of Clan Arcona, trained to hunt down and kill traitors and threats. Shinn was dangerous and set a nefarious plan into motion.
Port Ol'val was then sieged by the forces of the Hutts, the Mal Company Mercenaries, and Fly On The Wall – the collection code named The “Trimunitives". Shinn breached Bulkhead facility with a strike-team and lets many of Arcona’s prisoners out onto the districts of Port Ol’val. This causes enough chaos that the Trimunitives are able to take over many of the Clan’s safehouses. This of course get the attention of Arcona, and the Summit set a message out to all Clan members to meet up at the Headquarters of House Qel-Droma for assignments and targets. At perhaps the worst possible moment, Tsainetomo had decided to join Arcona from Clan Naga Sadow. Many of the Arcona Summit did not trust the former rival and Son of Sadow, some even thinking he was the cause of the attack on Port Ol’val.
As luck would have it this was also the first day of Socorra’s leadership of House Qel-Droma as Quaestor. Her first assignment was to gather the Clan and brief them on the attack. This included setting up multiple teams for a multi pronged assault on the combined forces of the Trimunitives.
During the time the teams were forming up and getting brief, a group led by “Jedi Master” Waylen Black, (secretly Darth Pravus) attacked one of the Casinos in the Besadii district, causing the casino to completely crush down on most of its inhabitants. He was aided by an upcoming Valhavoc. In the space right outside the Port, the third member of that team, Raken, stood ready to lead his troops to attack the Shadow Port as well. It was unknown if the team had any connection to the traitor Shinn Ragga.
Teams on the Move
Alpha Team
Andrelious, Incendus and Strategos’ mission was to retake the Jackson Safehouse, which had doubled as an Ice Crème shop. The plan was to use Strat’s undercover mission as a member of Fly on the Wall to safely disable the defenses of the safe house, then attack the unsuspecting guards. Andrelious and Incendus disguised themselves as simple consumers in order to find Strat’s undercover persona. While Incendus was looking out for a fake gift, Andrelious found Strat and is told he needs to move up just a little bit higher in the food chain in order to get the codes to safely shut down the defenses. So Andrel and Incendus find the FOTW engineer, that is ahead of Strat for promotion, and take him out. This causes the mercs to “promote” Strat and give him the codes.
Andrelious and Incendus then infiltrated the Ice Crème Shop/Safehouse to try to find Strat. They split up and while searching, Incendus got ambushed and killed several guards. He hides the bodies as best he can in an empty room. Soon after that incident he ends up finding Andrelious and Strat. They devised a plan to use their cover identities to surprise FOTW when the time was right. Unfortunately members of that group found the dead bodies that Incendus killed and switched on the alarms. This altered the plan and the team decided for full out assault instead. With the “Shutdown” codes, Strat was able to turn off the automated defenses and the team proceeded to attack FOTW head-on. During the fight they have to get to the shield generators in order to get to the rest of the base. In the room with the generators there are dozens of droids and one big hulking Mandalorian. During the ensuing fight Incendus was able to take over one of the defense turrets that was previously disabled and shot point blank at the Mandalorian, killing him instantly.
Beta Team
Cethgus, Putra and Saarin's mission was to take over a safe house that had been taken over by a Mandalorian named Kandar Ordo, and his gang, The Snakes. Cethgus sent the other two toward the safe house while he gathered some info from a brothel. Ceth was able to find the Kandar’s “main squeeze” and bribes her for info. But just as he was going to act on it Kandar himself spots Cethgus in the club and attacks him. Right before Cethgus escaped, he was able to put a tracking device on the Mandalorian, giving him full access to his location at anytime.
Charlie Team
Legorii, Celevon and Etah’s targets were two members of the “Trimunitives", Evol and Alec Dromaine. Not one to rest on his laurels, Legorii and his team were the only team that disobeyed the order to meet up at the briefing. Instead they got setup right away in one of Legorii’s secret safe houses. Unbeknownst to the team, one of their targets, Evol, is known to Etah, and is a someone from his past. He doesn’t tell the team right away, but it soon comes out. Legorii sent Etah after his “rival” while Legorii and Celevon set off to track down Alec.
Before the duo of Legorii and Celevon went searching, Legorii briefly left Celevon in order to meet with one of his Mal Company contacts he kept. The contact only knew that Alec was very influential with the Hutts, but not much else. Legorii quickly dispatched his former informant and met back up with Celevon.
Etah also met up with an informant of his own, Mejo, who told him the same thing Legorii had learned, but added that Alec was a Hutt Counselor for the Besadii. She also told Etah the location of where he could find Evol, the Stop ‘n Gamble casino in the Jarem Plaza. Etah discovered Evol and force-altered his likeness to be viewed as one of the Mal Company mercs in order to fool Evol outside the casino. Evol somehow had presence to know something was amiss and bolted away. This was to Etah’s advantage though and he was easily able to lead Evol around the Plaza, into the Ducts and finally into a biker bar that Etah co-owned. During their ensuing confrontation Etah fooled Evol into drinking with him unbeknownst that the drinks were laced with a paralytic. Evol passed out and when he came conscious Etah was there ready to torture the truth out of him. It did not take long and Evol spilled everything he knew, which isn’t anything the team didn’t know already. And while Etah was distracted Evol somehow managed to get out of the situation he was in and ran out the bar.
At the same time Legorii and Celevon were making their way to the ruined casino, where they heard Alec might be lurking. Legorii then left Celevon out of the blue in order to go on a little mission himself. Legorii presented himself as the informant he killed earlier to Bolo the Hutt and was able to find out that the Hutts had no idea how the casino was destroyed. But before he could leave, his cover was blown and was taken hostage.
Celevon had just finally made his way into the casino when he was confronted by a group of mercenaries, who was lead by none other than Alec. During their brief exchange it was made apparent that Celevon and Alec had business before the brotherhood.
Delta Team
Sanguinius, Inarya and Kratus’ mission was to locate three missing Gatewardens that were taken during the assault on the safe houses. They were also allocated a Bounty Hunter named Sotodeh. They all met in the Pride of Coreilla district and decided to split up: Sanguinius and the bounty hunter, and Inarya with Kratus.
Echo Team
Anigrel, Scelestus, and Talos Erinos’ mission was to find and kill two prisoners who were released during the ensuing chaos: Saes, and Kirya Hanzo.
Foxtrot Team
Wes Erinos and Zakath’s mission was to infiltrate a human gang and to locate and recapture whatever prisoners decided to join up that gang. Then if they could, to destroy said gang from within.
The Expendables
The attack on the casino was just a diversion for Raken’s group to infiltrate the Kas Tunnel with the least amount of resistance. Raken’s ship flew inside the tunnel and deposited him and his team. They easily took out the defenders there. Then Raken and Darth Pravus (revealed to be “Waylen Black”, met up briefly and have a private conversation. Raken gets orders from the specter of Sarin to take out all of the Arcona summit.
Raken and his team made their way to Jerum Plaza killing everything that got in their way. That was until he was ambushed by with his former lover/slave master Harque Nicanor, a Nightsister. She brought along another Force-wielder as well, a spellweaver of her clan. During the ensuing fight many of Raken’s men die to the spellweaver before he was able to bolster them with the force and help his men defeat her. He was then left to fight one on one with Harque. After an intense battle he was able to defeat and kill her.
After helping Sarin take down the casino, Valhavoc got his orders from Arcona to defeat several people as well, one of which is a Jedi Master, and enemy of Valhavoc. Even though he is not part of the attacking teams this one is personal and he goes to take him down anyways. He brings along Warder on his search for the Jedi, Cyll. Together they are able the find the Jedi helping the trapped in the casino wreckage. Sensing a chance to mock his foe Valhavoc gives the Jedi a warning a split second before he shoots him: let the innocents die or get shot in the back. The Jedi decides to be the savior he is and keeps his efforts up to save the folks, while his arm gets blown off by Valhavoc’s sniper rifle. It was all for naught since with the Jedi’s power draining, Valhavoc crushes the innocents anyways. The Jedi however escapes with his life intact, if not his arm.
The End in Sight
While the teams checked in with Marick, his team was being sent through the Ducts to Event Horizon and eventually Bulkhead. During their trip, Timeros and Sai verbally spar back and forth and Tim simply does not trust the former Son of Sadow at all. While bickering they came across a team of mercenaries that are easily defeated by the trio. They soon came across Event Horizon and Marick utilizes his renown speed to shutdown the generator and turn off the power to the building. It was easy, then, for the trio to take out the remaining guards. But Shinn Ragga saw this from the control room in Bulkhead and sent in a more powerful foe, a heavily modified Class 5 Labour droid. It took the combined efforts of all three Dark Jedi to take it out, with the killing blow going to Sai, with a powerful Force Blast, a trademark power of Clan Naga Sadow.
