Predictions - Episode II - Captain REX's Dark Jedi RPG
////Star Wars Episode II: Predictions\\\\
Your ships pull into Thajkon's headquarters on Coruscant, but find it empty. There is a message waiting for you there. Terran turns it on, a hologram of the armored, cloaked man appearing, his eyes glowing blue, even more so than the hologram normally does.
"Greetings, Dark Jedi," Thajkon begins. "If you are hearing this message, then you must have survived the infiltration of Oovo IV and retrieved your target, Tarnidmir. And I trust it was successful." He stops for a moment, then resumes, the hologram flickering slightly.
"As you can tell, I have deserted the base on Coruscant. If you left your ships or any belongings there, you can retrieve them."
"Our new base is in the Hoth System. You will find me, I assure you."
The hologram ends.

3 months later...
It is in the early morning hours in the Hoth System. You are all asleep in your own separate quarters, except for Legion and Terran...
You are running through a dense jungle, avoiding poisonous plants and dangerous animals, cutting through the thick brush with your lightsaber, the deep red blade hacking through all. An unsentient shriek pierces the air, making you run faster. Your are getting winded, but you cannot stop...
Thousands of red, insectoid beings carry giant stone blocks up the side of a work in progress, looks like some sort of temple. They are constantly whipped by beings, most of which are human, who also have lightsabers at their belts...
A man stands in a crowd of the red insectoids in a jungle, clutching something in his right hand. He holds the hand above his head, as a sign of victory. The red insectoids bow down in his presence, as do other men with lightsabers, saluting on top of it...
The jungle burns violently, soldiers firing blasters at each other, setting trees ablaze with cannons and flamethrowers. Screams of anguish go up...
The man ignites a red lightsaber and hacks through soldiers...
Lightsabers clash quickly, flashing vividly, but one blow finds its mark...
You keep running, hacking down a tree to cross a gorge as a horde of insectoid beasts approach from behind, throwing spears at you or firing blasters...
"The Sith shall rise again!" hollers the man, lightning flashing...
A Jedi swings his blue lightsaber downwards with a war cry and there is a flash...
Galiss Noob, you wake up in a mask of your own sweat, screaming. You stop, breathing heavily.
"What the hell is wrong with you?" a Geonasian asks. You have never seen him before, or his elephantine Cragmoloid cohort.
The rest of you sleep quietly, waking slowly at the sound of Galiss's screaming.
You are on the space station that Thajkon wrestled from the grasp of a pirate clan for his own private usage. Now that he has deemed you worth of being his lackies, he uses it as the headquarters for you to report back to. A majority of you stay on the space station, the Hoth System being so remote that it takes forever to go anywhere, and you do like the peace and quiet...
Legion and Terran awake in their shared room to a wonderful view of the gas planet Jhas, one of the six planets in the Hoth System, one of two gas giants.
"Wow, another unusual morning," Terran says sarcastically. When you first began staying here, the ever twirling clouds of Jhas were stunning. Now you find it boring.
Breakfast time, for those who want it...
