\*Hayden leads a resistance called The Resistors

\*Rayland gets a Villip Hood and meets Guzzan Romar

THIS SUMMARY NEEDS TO BE UPDATED

### "Hunted Jedi"

The Heroes were told that a Jedi was being hunted on the planet Mygeeto. They went to rescue her.

On entry, they found a speeder chase towards a ravine, and the jedi float down the ravine to safety.

Got into a fight with the others. Killed two, one was left unconscious, and the other was left alive.

Met up with the Jedi, and convinced her to come with them to safety.'

The Yuuzhan Vong had caught up, and managed to damage the engine of the Halcyon. Rayland and Dahquex went of to distract them while Aiko attempted to fix the ship. She ended up needing a part, of which Rayland found down in a nearby mining facility. They were able to cause a distraction to get back to the ship, and Aiko was able to fly them and the Jedi to safety.

### Dovin Basal Baby Food

Rayland and Kor-Lyn went in search for food for Kor-Lyn's Dovin Basal. They began by contacting Guzzan Romar, the intellectual Yuzan Vong, who informed them of how to care for a Dovin Basal. In exchange, Rayland identified a mysterious symbol that Guzzan showed them. Rayland remembered that the symbol had something to do with a manuscript he read a long time ago, involving Anakin Skywalker, Obi Wan Kenobi, and a mysterious name called Zonama Sekot. The heroes then joined an imperial assault on a planet (which is now aligned with the Republic) in an attempt to get some Dovin Basal food. They got it, at the expense of many Stormtroopers' lives. Returning home, they managed to heal the Dovin Basal.

### Halloween Special 2

On a peaceful cruise through hyperspace on the CR90, all gathered under the roof of one ship, the heroes doze off in comfort as they approach their destination. When they awake, they find alarms going off, the escape pods released, and the entire crew of Resistors and padawans gone. Kor-lyn and James met each other and Rayland and Yada also met up. After Kor-lyn, Rayland, James and Yada met up on the bottom floor of the ship, they found a Resistor Lieutenant who had been injured by some sort of Yuuzan Vong creature. The creatures were floral looking dog creatures, but these particular creatures were adopting the features of those they ate- growing hands and other human features gathered from the Lieutenant. They then split up and searched the ship, where James and Kor-lyn found another survivor and a clone of him. Rayland and Yada met with Aiko in the ship hangar, although she seemed entirely unbothered by the emergency Rayland reported to her. The crew left Aiko and went to the top of the ship.

Meanwhile: Matthew Borne has awoken from a diagnostic check to discover the same thing as the characters below in the hangar. He decides to continue to man the controls of the ship, and to attempt to get the ship out of the coast it is taking through empty space. Borne is met by the padawan Toma, who Borne discovers is being controlled by a series of vines moving her like a marionette doll. Eventually, Barkskin meets up with him. Barkskin explains the situation to Matthew, but Borne doesn't trust Barkskin. Borne and Barkskin fight, and Borne is knocked out. I think.

The gang has reached the top floor, and find Borne! A fight breaks out, where a bunch of Barkskin clones are surrounding the bodies of Toma and Borne. The group begins to fight them off fairly easily but, plot twist, Aiko steps in and also attacks the group. It seems Aiko's been cloned as well! Of course, the group would later sadly find out the truth. (This part needs editing from Sam, Max and Tom in case I'm getting stuff wrong). After trading some blows with the group, Kor-lyn uses the force to kill the clone, simultaneously using the dark side of the Force to resurrect Toma. Only, to the group's surprise and horror, the "clone" dissipates into the force, leaving behind Aiko's lightsaber. The group then remembered the age old phrase "You can clone a blue skinned Jedi with a dead brother, but you can't clone it a lightsaber".

Suddenly, the ship arrives on a planet. The group meets Zonama Sekot, a living planet, who explains that she (She? It? They?) has some relationship with the Vong homeworld, which she says came from her mother. Then the players wake back up on their ship, like it was all a dream. Except Aiko's still missing, Rayland still has the deceased Jedi's lightsaber, and there's a mysterious note in Aiko's room alluding to a certain secret mission towards the end of season one which Rayland, with his photographic memory, can't quite seem to remember...

### Surprise Attack

Kor-lyn, James and Rayland are with the padawans and Resistors on a mission to provide supplies to an extremely large group of refugees. The refugees are gathering on the planet, where they will board a GIANT ship (bigger than a star destroyer). The heroes and crew have brought supplies before the rush of refugees, and have met up with the large ship, and are stationed with a platoon of storm troopers to defend the supplies for a day. Avanu has found the group! He came on the large ship with the small crew. Rayland speaks with Avanu for a short while, and returns Aiko's lightsaber to Avanu. While handing the blade over to Avanu, Rayland recieves a vision, and realizes that the force has destined the blade to kill and important Vong. He informs Avanu that the blade's name is now Kenguenda, the Weeping Blade.

After a little while, the Warblers, Stormtroopers and the heroes have a meal together, where Rayland tells stories of his training as a Jedi. Meanwhile, Avanu speaks with Toma, who is struggling with being raised from the dead, and Avanu helps her to cope slightly. Rayland receives a call on the Villip Hood, and is told by Guzan Romar that Romar has succeeded in creating an artificial Vong Jedi, and that they're coming to attack the refugees. Rayland begs for time to evacuate the storm troopers and refugees who are soon arriving. Romar says that the attack could be slightly delayed, if Rayland fights the Vong Jedi champion. Rayland agrees. The Vong Jedi eventually shows up. Rayland manages to stab it with his lightsaber, dodge an attack, then use the force to drag the lightsaber up through the Vong's head. Rayland calls Guzan Romar back, and Romar tries to warn Rayland that the group should simply take the people on the planet and ditch the refugees before the Vong arrive. Rayland and crew refuse.

The group creates a plan to allow the refugees to escape. James takes on the role of piloting the Halcyon and providing air support. Finally, the refugees begin to arrive. Except, the VONG start pouring out of the ships (Dun Dun DUUUUUUUUN). The Vong start pouring onto the large ship in an attempt to kill the few people on the ship. Avanu and Rayland run to the ship and board it, closing the door behind them to block more Vong from entering the ship. Meanwhile, James and Kor-lyn hold off the Vong outside. Inside the ship, Rayland and Avanu have gathered the Vong into one room, where they plan on killing them all by draining the oxygen, but Scar has fallen in the room after being stunned. Rayland and Avanu are powerless to help. But, in a saving move, Kor-lyn enters the ship and saves Scar by using the force to un-stun him, and helps him escape. The group kills the Vong.

### Padawan Rescue

The heroes were hired to be part of the Flakk Jamison's crew. They were with the section of the peace brigade delivering padiwans to the Yuu-Sang-Vong. However, the heroes were not gonna let that happen. While exploring the ships during transit, Rayland, Yada and Kor-lyn found Yaxa, who was threating his captor with a blaster about not following clear and specific instructions. After he complies, Yaxa walks into the cage. (Insert Yada and Yaxa talk. 10/10 Please do again)

Avanu, James, and RoboCop (Actual Name?) went to the bridge. However, when they arrive, the Vong, unsurprisingly, did not appreciate them. The ship was split in half, with Avanu just barely closing the door to prevent instant death.

\*Avanu finds Golden Firespray

\*The other heroes find the padiwans, and make it to the hanger

\*Find another rescuer, who trashed the ship

\*RoboCop files firespray to met up with the rest.

\*Yaxa steals FireSpray

\*Heroes manage to shoot down the Vong secret weapon, Doven Basels

\*Heroes Gain +1 Ship, and somehow live.

### Jedi Trials

The Heroes felt through the force that a few chosen padiwans needed to return to Outer Trandon. So Rayland returned with them to find the city in shambles. The Vong had invaded, and were close to capturing the city. The padiwans got into a fight with 6 vong warriors, where they were blown back. However, they were saved by The General[Special Guest Alex], who brough the padiwans into the city, but not before Rayland was kidnapped by the Vong.

The Group was told they could join the rest of the refugees. Toma, Shiel[Josiah] and Cameron[Hayden] went into the sewers to copyright infringe [aka fear checks with not batman] some people who were planning on stealing [Alex's small ship?]. After bringing him to The General, he got a call that the [Gem?], a ship and mobile armory, was taking fire. They went along to save the ship.

On the way, Toma was temped by the voice of *"sith rayland"*, who led Toma to a projection of Aiko's X-Wing. She saw right though it, and attempted to chase the force user. However, they escaped. Toma then attracted the attention of the 'vong', and the group relised that Toma was gone. so they run in, and Toma shoots a 'Doven Basel', aka Shiel[Josiah] with force harm.

After that craziness, they manage to get close to the ship, but they have to climb a cliff. (Two padiwans rolled 1 green die for a basic athletics check. Remember Guy?) They manage to get up, and arm themselves with fairly powerful gear.They then ambush the same six vong warriors from before, who had Rayland in [the vong pouch thing]. The fight goes smoothly, until Cameron gets the critical injury - At the Brink. Toma manages to heal with an advanced medpack, and takes a hit from a vong warrior to do a great sacrificial act. However, the hit deals Cricial Injury 151, Death. The fight then ends quickly, with Toma's body vanishing, and Sara[Sam] hanging onto her lightsaber in memorial. They get back to the base with Rayland and the Gem, and manage to escape the planet with the survivors. Those who survived became knights, along with padiwans Scar, Rowan and [Mechanical Rodian].

### And Nothing Bad Happened...

Rayland, Avanu, Kor-lyn and Neem were teaching padawans new force techniques on Basil the Dovin Basaal. As they headed in for the night, Avanu spotted a large dark patch of land in the distance. The heroes went to investigate. Upon arriving, the heroes found a buried tree which bore a large seed. The players discovered that the seed could be used with other seeds to form a ship or other transportation. The seed bonded with Kor-lyn. The players then received a call on the Villip Hood from Guzzan Romar. Romar notified the Rayland that something near them (the seed) had sent out some sort of distress beacon, calling the Vong to pick it up. Romar offered to take the item from the party before the main Vong forces arrived to allow things to go by peacefully without jeopardizing innocent lives. The party agreed to meet up with Romar on Adria 2, where the citizens of Adria 7 would be safe. As the deal went down, the Vong commander who had come to find the seed arrived as well, and while he was unhappy at Romar's arrival, he was unable to stop the deal from taking place. Rayland and Neem prevented a rogue Vong from ruining the deal by using their combined powers in the force, and all was well, and nothing bad happened that day. Until Romar began to head off, and turned to speak with Rayland. Romar informed Rayland that the Villip Hoods, which Rayland uses to communicate with Romar, also record medical data about the user. Guzzan Romar explained to Rayland that the Villip Hood he uses has recently recorded extreme problems concerning his health, and that he would soon transmit data about it. Leaving Rayland shocked and confused, Romar flew away with the seed. And nothing bad happened.

### Reunions, Goodbyes, Espionage

The session begins with the heroes on their journey back to Waypoint 24. The heroes were called there by a Republic General, who had discovered the coordinates of Waypoint 24 after he came across the Halcyon. The general claims that he has a mission for the party. While some of the core crew goes, Rayland remains behind on the ship. When the group arrived, they landed in the almost empty hangar of the asteroid, noticing a rusted and scrappy looking transport parked inside. As they looked around, they spotted a faint light in the distance. When they got closer, they could see a humanoid figure with bandages covering their face. They began to investigate, and as they approached, Avanu, reaching out with the Force, heard someone behind them. Slowly turning around, he spotted a figure wrapped in rags, holding a small blaster pistol out from his cloak. Once the party explained what they were doing there, the figure holstered it's pistol and removed it's hood, revealing himself to be John O'Connors.

The party began to chat with O'Connors, and O'Connors and Avanu discussed his return from the dead, and the death of Aiko. The party discovered John had escaped from Coruscant with Nara, who was blinded in the escape. O'Connors was reluctant to provide the party with any aid, as he was beginning to become comfortable in his humble life on Waypoint 24 with Nara. He also felt he was no longer useful to the group, as he felt what the galaxy needed was Jedi. He also felt that his actions were inexcusable, and would have happily served his sentence had the Vong not invaded. "I spent a long time thinking that I was a good man, only to realize that I wasn't". However, Yada was able to convince him that he could redeem himself still, and that Yada was not a Jedi, but could still make a difference in the galaxy. Reluctantly, O'Connors agreed to help, and had Yada return his pistols to him.

Soon after, the general arrived, accompanied by what appeared to be three Vong soldiers. The general had acquired three spies who had perfectly disguised themselves as Vong, and he planned on having them insert themselves into the Vong ranks on Coruscant. The party's mission was to escort these spies to Coruscant and aid them in replacing three Vong soldiers, all without being seen. After a bit of discussion and planning, the party set off for Coruscant on their cloaked ship which they got on Droid Hell.

O'Connors suggested that the party enter Coruscant through the north pole, which is how he escaped with Nara. James piloted them down, and they descended into the underbelly of the city, in an area much like the one from V.I.P Part 1. When they found a good place to land the ship, the players exited to find a route for the Vong to take, as they couldn't be seen. However, when they exited, they ran into a group of bandits, who wanted to steal their ship. A fire fight quickly broke out, and Yada was blasted through the rusty floor. However, just before he fell, O'Connors managed to catch him and help him up. During the fight, James took a decent amount of damage, but also dispatched several bandits.

As the party moved forward, they came to a Vong outpost in the lower levels of the city which held about 100 civilian prisoners, and was also the site for developing a Vong weapon known as Fire pods. The outpost was walled, with a dug out area serving as the prison and an underground lab which developed the pods. The spies believed that it would be a good idea to create a fire there using the pods, where they could throw themselves into the flames and take the identity of three of the Vong soldiers, and go into deep cover. The players began to hatch a plan.

Yada began to lift people over the wall, and Avanu, James and Kor-lyn immediately moved towards the lab stealthily. Meanwhile, O'Connors slipped into the prisoners area, where he began to explain the situation, and that when things went bad, they should flee. When James detonated the fire pods, things went into motion. Using the flames as cover, the three spies moved in. However, suspicions quickly grew, and things became complicated. Two of the spies made their way to the flames, but the female Clawdite spy was suspected. She spoke to several other Vong, who quickly took her away, back in the direction of the ship.

Rushing after the spy, the heroes tried to decide what they would do when they got there. It seemed the entire mission was compromised. However, when they arrived, the spy seemingly had a plan. James became surrounded by the Vong, and in a firefight, was gunned down. The party then shot several other Vong, and when reinforcements arrived, the spy took a place in their ranks and left.

The party took James's body onto the ship, and returned to the *Menagerie.* There, they held a funeral for James. Yada seemed furious the entire time, appearing to have taken the loss of his friend very harshly. Not long after James's death, the question was raised of who would lead the Resistors. Inspired by the help he provided on this mission, the encouragement from Yada, and a conversation between himself and Rayland, O'Connors agreed to help lead the Resistors, on the condition that Nara would remain safe and taken care of.

And that day at James funeral, a group of people gathered around to remember their friend, committed to continue fighting for a galaxy which would someday be thankful for the sacrifice of the Resistor.

### Aboard Romar's Vessel

The group was contacted by Guzzan Romar, the scientist Vong who has been communicating with Rayland. He requested that they come aboard his Vong vessel so that he could examine Rayland in more detail, following the discovery of his disease. In order for them to not be noticed on the Vong ship, Romar provided them with a set of Cloakers, which would make them appear like Vong.

When the group arrived, they split up to explore the ship. Rayland went with Romar, and Kor-lyn, Nipp and Sif (the sister of the recently killed James) went around, learning more about the Vong ship. As the party explored the ship, they discovered a sealed door, which was rumored to contain strange secrets, and perhaps, even a Jedi. They also heard whispers of some sort of rebellion being spread through the Shamed One ranks. While they were walking around, Kor-lyn, thought to be a shamed one, was separated from the group and required to do labor.

Meanwhile, Romar and Rayland were discussing Rayland's condition. They discussed possible solutions to Rayland's issue, and Romar suggested Rayland consider using the Dark Side, which Rayland was hesitant about, but did not outright denounce. After some studies, Romar came to a conclusion about what was causing Rayland's health to go into decline. Romar reported that Rayland was suffering from cellular degeneration, which Romar claimed was common among organisms which are the result of cloning, suggesting that Rayland is likely a clone. This came as a huge shock to Rayland, and Rayland began to ask Romar a long series of questions. Rayland learned from Romar that his DNA had likely been the result of cloning the original host between 6 and 8 times. However, Romar also suggested that the process was reversible, if Rayland would accept genetic splicing and reparations from the Vong, and that his life could be prolonged even beyond normal human years. Romar informed Rayland that he had about 6 months to decide what he would do, before the condition would become irreversible.

After this, Kain Lah arrived on Romar's ship. Lah had also learned of the rumors of a Shamed One uprising on Romar's ship. After a close call where Kor-lyn was almost apprehended, Neem, Sef and Kor-lyn managed to free the four rebellious Vong. As punishment for Romar's incompetence, Lah had Romar's secret room sacked. Inside there were countless precious Jedi artifacts, which were all destroyed by the Vong. Kor-lyn was able to retrieve the broken parts of a holocron for Rayland, but the data was not salvagable.

Romar, devastated by the loss of his life's work, and the loss of his only chance at redeeming his life as a Vong, helped the group escape, and promised to continue his work on Rayland's condition. The group left the ship with 4 Vong allies, and 4 Cloakers.

### The Triad (By Nate "High Noon" Brown)

Borne, Yada, and Sif learned that the Vong were going to attack a planet called Ezion (spelling?). Afterwards, they would attack Rudo'o, a fueling planet, and then Proclimar 4. All three are Max Canon. Each had a small fleet. The first had 3 cruisers, the second had 72 small fighters, and the third had a victory class star destroyer. After talking with the president of Ezion, we learned of a mega Canon that would shred enemy flagships with ease on Ezion. Then we went to Proclimar 4, where we faced the senate of 72 elders where everyone is equal. We eventually got them to agree to lend us their ships, after what was probably multiple hours of debate. Then we went to Rudo'o. We contacted the ruler, a lieutenant admiral, who told us to land. We landed, and Borne lured his second in command onto the Ghost. The Admiral said that Rudo'o was crawling with Vong, and he couldn't trust anyone. After having Yada punch the second Commander in the nose to make sure he didn't have on a cloaker, and convincing the Admiral through the the force (via Trax) that he had to use the bathroom, we went to the star destroyer, The Unfailing, where Borne turned on a camera, pulled off his mask, and basically told the Vong where to stick it. It turns out everyone on the bridge minus us and the two men in charge were Vong. After killing them, and Said fixing a stabilizer to keep the Unfailing in orbit, we learned of the battle down below taking place.

We had told everyone, including the people on the ground, that there was a droid on the Unfailing. The Vong had gone nuts. So, Borne went to the planet all alone. 13 waves of an indiscriminate amount of Vong (and two close calls) later, Borne was picked up. The rest was preping for a large space battle. We moved everything into position, had Yada be a one man boarding party, Sif flew him around and dropped him off. Borne fired the flagship shredder, and together with the rest of our fleet, we killed the Vong fleet. Only the flagship was left. Lah's personal flagship. We hit the engines so he couldn't jump to light speed. So he suddenly stopped moving. He was taking in damage, and not firing back. Someone (I don't remember who. I think it was Borne), noticed this and realized that Lah was prepared to give up his life Ina self-destructive ending where he killed everyone near him. After realizing this, Borne called off the attack, and had the Unfailing to ram the enemy flagship. The star destroyer made it just in time. There was a small explosion, but it was enough to kill many small fighters, and maybe a few cruisers, and the Ghost was seriously damaged. To the point that we needed to clamp it to the bottom of the Menagerie. The 3 planets united to become an alliance, and Borne retired.

### Secret Jedi Mission 3

Just before departing, Rayland was treated by Guzhaan Romar on Adria 7, where Romar administered several blood slugs to Rayland, which would slow the effects of Rayland's cellular degeneration. Rayland is now feeling the effects of his ailment more heavily. After this, Romar explained that he was no longer under the supervision of any Vong after Kain Lah's death, and that he was now fully researching the Force, and wished Rayland the best.

Sif, Rayland and Kor-lyn went to Paemrayne, the home of Tow'rin, the teacher of Rayland and Aiko from Secret Jedi Mission 1, after the Jedi received visions of a Vong warrior in Tow'rin's hut, which is featured in the play by post. The players searched Tow'rin's hut, and discovered that it had been torn apart by a large clawed creature. They also found a secret compartment in the hut which led to a hidden room containing memorabilia from Tow'rin's time serving in the Jedi Order during the Clone Wars, a detail he had previously not mentioned to Rayland or Aiko. Rayland, using the Force, found a general sense of where Tow'rin would be, and saw that he was high up on a mountain.

The three set out for the mountain. On their way, they encountered a large wolf-like beast, which was blinded. It had four large claw marks across it's face, much like the Vong warrior from the Jedi vision. Kor-lyn used the Force to injure the beast and scare it off, and the heroes continued up the mountain to find Tow'rin.

Upon finding Tow'rin, the trio learned that the old Jedi had caused the beast to go blind, in an effort to discipline the creature, and eventually return it to it's pack. Tow'rin tasked the group with tracking down the wolf, and leading it back to it's pack, where it could be healed. He encouraged all of them to leave their weapons behind. Kor-lyn accepted immediately, and left his weapons behind. After some reluctance, feeling betrayed by the secrets kept by his master, Rayland did decide to leave his weapons. Sif refused, taking the stance that she was not bound to the same standards as the Jedi.

The group used their speeder bikes, taken from the Halcyon, to lure the creature to them. Once the creature came, Rayland turned off the bikes, and used the Force to make the creature associate the peace from the absence of noise from the bikes with the Jedi. Kor-lyn then used food to further befriend the creature, and then healed the damage he had previously done to the creature using the Force. The wolf clearly had a direction it wanted to go, but the heroes knew it had to reach Tow'rin. By having Kor-lyn ride the wolf, and Rayland guiding it and disciplining it through the Force, the creature eventually trusted the three to lead it back to Tow'rin.

When the group arrived back at the top of the mountain, they asked Tow'rin to heal the creature of it's blindness. Tow'rin claimed that he could not do this. Confused and frustrated by the seeming waste of time, and his confusion regarding his vision, Rayland asked Tow'rin what was going on. Tow'rin explained that while he could not heal the creatures, someone else, who the group might recognize, could. Immediately hoping to, by some miracle, meet Aiko again, Rayland reached out with the Force, and sensed a presence in the Force similar to Zenoma Sekot. Tow'rin gestured down to the valley below, where a cloaked figure, dressed in white like Zenoma Sekot, stood among the pack of wolves. Disappointed by not recognizing Aiko's aura, Rayland walked down the mountain slowly, while Sif and Kor-lyn rode the wolf with Tow'rin following. When they reached a distance not too far away, the group watched as the cloaked figure healed the blindness of the wolf, and he joined the pack again. Wondering if, perhaps they had been quite confused, Rayland asked if this was in fact Zenoma Sekot, and Tow'rin said it was not. Disappointed, as he had remembered Neem describing his dream involving a white cloaked Aiko, Rayland turned back to the pack to see that the figure had disappeared. The group went down among the pack, and Tow'rin explained the lesson of what had happened. The vision, which had shown a scarred vong warrior, was tied to the scarred wolf. The wolf, blinded and removed from his pack as a result of his anger and destruction, was left alone in exile. The trio had been able to redeem it by bringing it to Zenoma Sekot, who had healed it. The same must be done with the Vong, and Tow'rin believed that the group of heroes would be a part of this.

After this explanation, the group looked up at saw an X-wing flying by overhead. Realizing that Aiko had in fact been on the planet, and he had missed her, Rayland began to weep. After a short while, the group invited Tow'rin to join them, but he declined, saying that he believed the Force had shown him that he wasn't meant to be a true Jedi, but instead to take care of his planet. Rayland then contacted Romar, inviting him to visit this planet so that he could better explain the nature of the Force to Romar, in hopes of beginning the process of Romar's redemption.

### Journey to Sleheyron, Part 1

In need of supplies for the fleet, the heroes journeyed to Sleheyron, a Hutt space trading world. Everyone had different goals and items they wanted to purchase on Sleheyron. Cameron Dantari was looking for new TIE's for the Sundown Guard. Flaak Jamison was looking for a transport craft to carry his AT-ST into battle. O'Connors had sent the players looking for supplies for the Resistors. Sif was looking for new weapons, armor, or tools. Rayland was looking for Jedi lore or tools to militarize the academy padawans.

The players met Zip-Zip, a Gungan engineer who had a ship that needed repairs. The players realized that Zip-Zip could be of huge value, as Zip-Zip's Zap (the name of her ship) had Gungan bubble tech on it, which could be used to have ships launch directly off of the Menagerie. However, Zip-Zip's Zap required more power, and she needed generators to make it run.

After speaking with a Hutt trader, Rayland learned that the group to talk to for all their needs was a group known as the Vengeance. In fact, the Vengeance was in a bidding war against them for Flaak's precious AT-ST transport! When they approached the Vengeance, they saw the Vengeance was in fact a huge riot in the streets. The players prevented a theft, and had the would-be-thieves escort them to the leader of the Vengeance, Jemmy. Jemmy was a droid, hell-bent on destroying the Vong, who despised all robots. However, Jemmy did not mind doing this at the price of a few worthless meatbags, and he and two other leading robots had captured hundreds of humanoids as slaves aboard the Jubilee, their ship. Any disobedient slaves would be electrocuted. The players discovered that Jemmy and the other two robots had also created a hyper deadly bio-weapon which would destroy Vong and humanoid alike, and they would unleash it on any planet that held Vong.

Rayland sold some of the Vong tech he had on him for a great deal of credits, and the players went on a bit of a shopping spree. They purchased Zip-Zip's generators, the AT-ST transport for Flaak, and some much needed supplies. Rayland sensed one of the slaves through the Force as he passed by, a Zabrak male named Rukh. Rayland purchased the slave, receiving a digital tool that could electrocute him. Rayland did not destroy this device. Rayland told Rukh that he was free now, though he would like him as a padawan, and that they sought to free the other slaves of the Jubilee. The key component of this operation would be stealing one of the three droids' data pads, and scrambling the electrocution signals so that they would be free.

The heroes picked their target, a large robot escorted by many slave guards, who was stealing babies who he wanted to enslave. The robot carried two babies, and a guard carried one. Rayland and Neem worked together using the Force to rescue the babies, and handed them off to Sif, who then returned them to their parents. After the babies were safe, the heroes quickly cut down the robot, after taking some damage themselves. They didn't harm any of the slaves, and after Kor-lyn quickly scrambled their codes, they were free, and handed over control to the slaves again.

However, just as things were wrapping up, the players received a call from the Halcyon. Apparently, a large Vong spider had stowed away on their ship, and they were now in a great deal of trouble with the local authorities...

### Journey To Sleheyron, Part 2

The heroes went back to their ship, where they saw that the Halcyon was under quarantine, and journalists were surrounding the area. The ship was going to be searched, which would be problematic as both Basil the Dovin Basal and La'zon Vraal were on board, and would be killed on sight. A Gamorrean who was in charge of security in the area had hired a group of professional "Vong Hunters" who were now going to search the ship. However, Rayland and Yada were able to convince the Gamorrean that the hunters weren't needed, and that the ship didn't need to be searched. They also told the Gamorrean that La'zon was their Vong slave, and that he would help them track down and kill the large spider creature. Reaching out with the Force, Rayland could sense that the creature fed off of electricity, and was headed towards a large source of power. Zip-Zip also informed the party that she had fixed the bubble on the Zap with her new generator, and followed the party in her ship. The heroes headed for the nearby Power Sub-Station.

When they arrived at the Sub-Station, they saw that the station was a large pit with a generator at the bottom. The pit served to release excess heat and steam. The pit was also statically charged, and lightning arcs could be seen bouncing around and across the gap. As they were examining the area, a single large spider creature attacked the party. It could take huge amounts of damage without being affected, but the party was eventually able to defeat it after Rayland used the Dark Side to drop a building on it. They then realized that they would have to eliminate a nest which the original spider had placed at the bottom of the pit. As the players devised a plan to destroy this nest, three more spider creatures attacked, and the players were able to dispatch them after sustaining some serious injuries. Kor-lyn dealt huge amounts of Strain by damaging them with Force punches, Yada tackled them and wrestled with them, Rayland used his new found strategy of dropping a building on them, La'zon used his knowledge of Vong Tech to disable them, and Sif used her new jetpack to maneuver around them. However, several characters took critical injuries, and a NPC guard was killed. The heroes then temporarily turned off power to the Sub-Station, and filled the cooling vent with a fire retardant, quick hardening substance that clogged the vent and caused the entire system to overheat, baking the nest and destroying it.

The party then returned to the hangar to get their ship, when they saw that a fight had taken place. Roomo, the Hutt trader, had been shot. Then, they saw the Golden Firespray. Yaxa had come, here to kill Yada and harvest his heart. Obviously, the party was a bit confused by this, Yada most of all. The party was ready to kill Yaxa, but Yada claimed that it was against the rules, and that they shouldn't kill him. After speaking more with Yaxa, he explained that he needed Yada's heart to cure a cellular necrosis he was suffering as a result of being a clone. Rayland realized that he could help Yaxa, and used the Force to influence his mind. He put Yaxa in a state of complete trust and openness towards Rayland, and Rayland told him that he could heal Yaxa's body just as he had healed his own, if Yaxa would be loyal to Rayland and the fleet, as the process did not permanently fix his problem. Yaxa agreed, and after being given the coordinates for the fleet, set off in the Firespray.

The players then got a call on a commlink. Flaak Jamison was trying to leave the planet with his new AT hauler, but after the Power Sub-Station had broken down a riot had started. Jamison was being targeted by two stolen security vehicles, which both had a grappling hook stuck in Jamison's ship. The players quickly fired up the Halcyon and went after Jamison. The heroes caught up to Jamison's ship, which was moving slowly as two grappling hooks were attached to it from two small security ships, and both ships were firing at him. La'zon piloted the Halcyon, and lowered the loading bay elevator on the bottom of the ship, where Rayland, Kor-lyn, Yada, and Sif waited. Sif jetpacked to the ship on the left of Jamison, while Yada jumped off the loading bay and landed on the ship to the right. Rayland waited to provide aid when the time was right.

As Yada landed on the first ship, he quickly ripped the cable off, freeing Jamison's right side. However, he then had to take care of dispatching the ship. Meanwhile, on the other ship, Sif used her jetpack and Kor-lyn's lightsaber to cut the cable from the other ship. After Sif got off of the ship, Rayland used the Force to crash the ship on Jamison's left into the ground, destroying it. Kor-lyn, Yada and Sif then commandeered the second ship, kicking the pirates out and taking it for the fleet. The heroes then set out for the Fleet with new weapons, supplies, ships, and several new TIE-fighters.

### Return to Adria 7

The Fleet was involved in a battle in the Outer Rim, fighting off a Vong force. O'Connors was leading the Resistors, and Avanu was leading many of the Jedi. During this battle, the heroes received a message sent out by Rayland himself! Rayland was calling all Vong in the galaxy who wanted to attack Jedi to come to Adria 7 for a fight. This was because Rayland wanted to show his padawans, and the padawans on Adria 7 the power of the Dark Side, and to kill a lot of Vong. Realizing they had a chance to confront Rayland, O'Connors, Sif and Avanu gave orders and left on the Halcyon.

When they arrived on Adria 7, they realized that they had left too slow, and had not beat Rayland to Adria 7. However, they were able to sneak up on him. Rayland was in one of the villages of Adria 7, searching for padawans, but there were none around. Rayland had also brought along some of his padawans, and Yaxa and Ruhk. After surrounding Rayland and his padawans, the three heroes attacked. Avanu got close to Rayland, but was unable to get a hit in with his lightsaber before Rayland force choked him. O'Connors fired at Rayland, and did some damage. Sif did not engage, but was prepared to use a thermal detonator if necessary. After O'Connors hurt Rayland, Rayland used the Force to control O'Connors and make him shoot Avanu, hurting him but not killing him. After realizing that they had no shot at winning this battle, O'Connors surrendered, and Avanu and Sif followed along.

Rayland questioned the heroes, demanding an answer to why there were no padawans around. The heroes honestly did not know, but Rayland did not totally believe them. However, Rayland was distracted as Vong ships began to arrive on planet. Rayland and his padawans left to go slaughter the arriving Vong.

The heroes began to search the village quickly, and O'Connors and Avanu were able to work together using O'Connors' forensic kit and Avanu's amazing perception to find fresh tracks from someone. It seemed that the tracks were, strangely enough, following *them.* They realized that someone around them was invisible. Just aw they realized this, about 20 Vong walked into the village. The heroes did not immediately engage, as they could see that the Vong seemed fairly meager, and many of them were not warriors, and they carried minimal weapons. The Vong said that they were here to meet the Jedai, and that they wanted to learn of the Force. The heroes realized that all of the Vong who were coming to the planet were not seeking to destroy the Jedi, but to learn from them, and that Rayland was slaughtering innocents.

Coming back to this invisible person they knew was watching them, O'Connors and Avanu began to ask for it to reveal itself. Alu-Mann revealed himself to the party, as did Aiko. This was the first time that Aiko and Avanu had seen each other since Secret Jedi Mission 2, and the first time O'Connors and Aiko had seen each other since O'Connors had turned himself in on Coruscant. After catching up extremely briefly, Aiko explained that they needed to save as many of these Vong as possible, so that they could redeem them on Zenoma Sekot. This was where all of the padawans and villagers of Adria 7 had already gone. The Vong had a world ship above the planet, and many more were arriving on smaller ships constantly. If they could get the Vong to their ships and back onto the world ship, they could save thousands of Vong. Alu-Mann believed that he could create a massive Force illusion that would make Rayland think he was killing Vong, when there was really nothing there. However, Alu-Mann would have to stay behind on the planet. The heroes agreed this was the best option.

O'Connors gave the Vong a crash course in tactics, helping them to understand that they had to concentrate their fire and stay spread apart in order to effectively fight the Padawans. The heroes and Vong headed out of the village towards their ship. On their way in the forest they ran in to Yaxa, who had a X-Wing cannon in his hands with a battery on his back, firing at the party. O'Connors and Avanu began to charge at Yaxa, but Yaxa got a shot off at Avanu. Already hurt from his fight with Rayland, when Avanu was hit he passed out. O'Connors ordered the Vong to run, and got one to carry Avanu. Sif went with the Vong to lead them. Meanwhile, O'Connors charged at Yaxa. While O'Connors ran into range, Yaxa hit O'Connors, dealing a great deal of damage. However, O'Connors was able to unload both weapons into Yaxa without him being able to fire back, and Yaxa passed out. O'Connors holstered his weapons and tapped a button on his metal arm, where a thermal detonator was kept. O'Connors set it on a fifteen second timer, and left it by Yaxa's head. He then ran back to the party.

The party managed to make it to their ship in decent condition, and with no losses. Avanu came to, and they launched to ship. As they were leaving the planet, several Vong ships passed them, but the Halcyon suddenly lurched to a stop: they were being held by Rayland. O'Connors hopped on the ship's turret while Sif piloted, and Avanu used the Force to help O'Connors fire. They managed to spray enough fire to the planet below that they were able to distract Rayland and escape.

Once on the world ship, the heroes waited for perhaps an hour as more and more Vong entered the ship. However, they knew that Rayland and his padawans would be coming up at any moment, and that if Rayland entered the ship, all would be lost. They were faced with a difficult decision to make about when they should leave, and perhaps abandon many Vong who had not yet arrived. Ultimately, they waited until the last second when Rayland's ship was seen coming towards them before they launched, leaving an unknown number of Vong to die at Rayland's hand. The world ship then joined the fleet, until they could find Zenoma Sekot.

### [A Title Exists]

The Pure Vong seek to redeem themselves by reverse engineering the grow-an-army creations littering the galaxy. To do so, you must take a landing force onto a palipar and another group into the queenspawn nexus on a planet and capture them intact.

Thus, O'Connors and Yada took a squad of Vong to the queenspawn nexus, while Avanu, Barkskin, Sif and Zip Zip took a smaller group of Vong and a bird, and landed on the palipar.

[Will finish]

### Season 2 Finale (Three different sessions, to lazy to seperate)

Track Rayland and Sekot to the Carvers Claw Nebula. Go in there with a few ships. Find a rubble cluster that Sekot might be hiding in. Check the asteroids for coralskippers and find one. It’s a Trap!!! Rayland and his forces are surely hiding in waiting behind a now-obvious planetoid chunk. Send the Iktotchi Defenders to flank them while the Ghost and Sabot take the bait.
But it was a double trap!! Rayland and some of his followers found a way on board the Defenders and are Willbendering them to attack the Sabot. Best plan is to bring a boarding party and take back the Defenders.
Yada and O’Connors go to one, while Barkskin, Bourne, and Sif go to the other. Yada and O’Connors track down the Sith apprentice Rayland sent to that one and kill her. She has one of the Willbender halves on her.

Continuing from previous adventure, the ship O'Connors is on continues to be blasted apart. O'Connors gets a good shot on the other ship using a cannon, but is unable to stop the ship from falling into the planet below.
The rest of the party continues on the ship, rescuing the crew and tracking Rayland. Avanu senses him on the bridge, and goes to confront him. However, instead of responding, the crew is in complete confusion as to why Avanu is here. However, after Avanu reveals the presence of Sekot, Matthew comes in, and shoots Rayland in such a way that it drops his force illusion. After the ensuing chaos, and disarming Rayland, they fall to the planet below, with everyone blacking out.
Hours later, they manage to group up, heal and rest the night. They repair the ship, the Sabot, and discover that Sekot is dying due to the violence and darkness brought onto it. They manage to heal a small portion of it, revealing Sekot herself. She explains that Rayland is moving towards a nearby mountain, and that killing him here will greatly damage the world. The group slowly makes plans to move Rayland off world.
However, before much more can happen, Avanu starts looking for the other half of Willbender, which was turned into a lightsaber. He(and friends) manages to find it, at the bottom of one of the floating ships. However, as he takes it, that ship starts to sink, possibly jeopardizing the party. (Also acquired a Holocron)

The Group, in the sinking ship, falls down to the ocean floor, while stabilizing the ship, as to not completely flood. However, after fighting a thought-long-dead [REALLY EVIL SPIDER THING], the group follows it into a pathway under the ocean. The group follows to the Sekot Prison, finding an old Sith Vong, from before they were exiled from the force. He tells Rayland of their location, and tells the heroes of a great treasure he cannot gain. The heroes follow the tunnels into the Nexus. [Think about Rebels Time Temple, Same Idea]. Avanu used the Willbender to convince Rayland to warp them, the Vong, and the Droid Army to Redemption. After that, the heroes promptly owned Rayland. (That is a joke, we almost died!) Rayland, afterwards, sees he just doomed the Padawan's to death, and promptly uses the force to destroy some of the droids. The heroes fly to save the rest, with Aiko and the rest of the fleet popping in to help out. And that is how the galaxy was saved from Rayland and the Vong.
