Star Wars D20 Revised Session 11

After stowing the lightsabers in the cargo hold I come out and see Terrance flipping a coin.  I asked him what was up with the coin.  He said that the coin had saved his life because when he bent over to pick it up the blaster shot that was aimed for his head missed.  We talk about the definition of a 'good' scoundrel compared to a 'bad' scoundrel.  The reason someone was shooting at him was because of the bounty on him and that all scoundrels had a bounty on them.  I told him that only the 'good' scoundrels had bounties on them and that 'bad' scoundrels were dead.  He readily agreed.

The sandstorm subsides in about an hour and the children haven't moved from their seats or at all because of their catatonic nature.  We radio the space outpost and get clearance to land.  We do not mention that we have kids with us.  We dock and see Captain Lyn Me and Captain Tai Lynn when the shuttle doors open.  I speak with Captain Lyn Me while Terrance talks with Captain Tai Lynn.  I speak with the captain on the shuttle with the doors closed.  I inform the captain of what happened on Korriban.  We leave the shuttle and have the kids moved to the medical bay.  I take the lightsabers in a sack and also have the triangle pieces and the two crystals with me.  Captain tells me that I will have to tell the council what I have told her.  I ask about how the battle went and am told that the invading forces left minus one of their ships because it was destroyed leaving them with two.  The council still being on board the outpost.  While waiting for the council to arrive I was approached by a young cadet and asked to give him the triangles.  I asked him to take me to his commanding officer and I meet the Security Commander of the outpost.  I ask her if she has any force-users in her command and she says she has a couple of Jedi.  I ask if any of the other triangles emitted any force and she tells me that none of them do.  I inform her that these four pieces all emit force and then hand them over to her.

The council being ready, I enter the room and inform them of everything that has transpired.  I also add to my information an assumption that 'the crystals are or were a myth and/or a secret that has been forgotten'.  During the meeting I receive a communique that Captain Tai Lynn's ship is ready to depart.  I leave to go to the ship after I am done telling the council the news.

I enter the ship and find Captain Lyn Me and all the kids in the med-bay.  I head towards the ship's lounge after the ship's outside door finally closes.  I sensed force right before the door closed.  Inside the lounge, I see the white-robed figure with three other Jedi.  I heard somebody coming up behind me and I turned slowly holding my lightsaber in my hand and saw my master.  He said with a glean in his eye,"We have to discuss much about your training."
We jumped into hyperspace after launch and we were informed that it would be three days travel.
Day 1
My training consisted of wearing a space fighter helmet with the blast shield down and blocking shots from a floating blaster ball.
Day 2
I play chess with the white-robed figure and win.  I play a Sulustean Jedi and lose.  I finally play my master and lose.  The three games took all day.
Day 3
While eating breakfast, hear all three kids screaming from med-bay.  Run to investigate and when I arrive I hear the voice of the big guy that we met on Korriban.  He said something about how he told us that we would meet again.  The alarm sounds telling us that we may exit hyperspace.




Terrance and Captain Tai Lynn head to bridge and I follow.  I see a planet with green fields and blue skies everywhere and huge purple mountains.  It seems a temperate planet and the scans indicate low technology, but massive life readings and no pollution.  We receive coordinates to land with permission.  We arrive on a landing platform in the middle of a forest.  Three Jedi are there to welcome us.
The male Jedi, who has a female Jedi on either side of him, says,"Welcome to Tython."
My master looks at me and says,"You have an inquisitive look on your face."
I reply,"I sense the dark side."
"Yes, this from history that has played out."
Notice the Security Commander from the outpost talking to her sister.  I asked her why she is here and she said that this mission was to important to entrust to anyone.  I notice many ruins all over the place.  The male Jedi asks my master,"How can we help you?"
My master answers,"We are here to see them.  We also have information on the Sith empire and news for them."
"The Sith haven't been seen for over a thousand years."
"These two and the scoundrel probably fought the leader of the Sith."
I laugh hysterically out loud, but quickly stifle my laughter.  Terrance had reluctantly came out of the ship, but after hearing the news about the Sith leader passes out.
The male Jedi said that the last time they faced the Sith leader that he was over 1000 years old.
The three Jedi lead us to a taxi-shuttle and take us pass fields where we see creatures with blasters and padawans dealing with them.  Some of the creatures also have force-staves as weapons.  The creatures are non-humanoid and are called flesh-eaters.  As the name of them is told, we see a padawan fall and get surrounded and then the creatures start feeding on him.  He eventually gets saved from the creatures.
 
We land at a large building where we are told,"Welcome to the Jedi Temple."
We are 'ushered' inside, but see the shuttles with the triangles in them land on the roof of the building.  We are lead to an antechamber and allowed to freshen up.  We are then escorted to an upstairs room by a padawan.  See large chambers and hallways approximately seven meters tall and four meters wide.  Pass through a large doorway and see statues.  There are three on either side of the hallway and evenly spaced.  The statues are of Jedi about 6.5 meters tall, but race and gender are indistinguishable due to being purposefully carved that way.  At the end of the hallway, a circular chamber.  The padawan enters and says,"Masters, I bring them."  He bows and walks over behind a master.  We enter and the room is full.  Master Luke is holographed in and sitting in a chair to the left of the center chair which is occupied by the white-robed female figure.  Many different races here and some are also holographed in.  When we enter, a discussion is in progress.  A chair is empty on the right side of the white-robed figure.  My master takes this seat.  Before my master arrived, I let everyone see the two crystals and gave the five lightsabers away.
The 'Lady in White' or the white-robed figure pounds her foot on the floor loudly to get everybodies attention.
She says,"We have a lot to discuss if your story is true and we have a lot to talk about.  We will adjourn for the night and we will talk tomorrow morning."
Fra'll and I are each lead to a bedchamber.  I go straight to bed.  I am exhausted.
 
This is where we left off.  Stay tuned for Session 12 coming soon.  Until then, safe gaming and have fun.
