Episode 1: Prexiar




GM's Note: This was the first mission, and as many of you will recognize, it is the adventure included in the Star Wars: The Role-playing Game Second Edition, revised and expanded Handbook. Therefore, this adventure is not mine, it is for the most part owned by West End Games. I, however, gave it my own little twist *wink*.



Adar Daala and Jovan Everlight, the first members of the as of yet not formed Sabre team, proceed to Prexiar. Their mission is to recover some stolen New Republic supplies to be used on an upcoming military mission. They are also to rescue Borsk Fey'lya (my twist), New Republic Inner Council Member representing the Bothan Star System. They arrive at Prexiar and scope out the compound to find it guarded by an electric fence. One of the guards, falling out of one of the guard towers by accident, allowed them to enter the compound and approach Fey'lya's cell. They rescue Fey'lya and proceed to the cargo. On the way Daala trips and smashes his face on the ground. A close call, but no troops were alerted. They manage to make it to the supplies and decide that sneaking around is not as good a plan as casuing a distraction. Therefore, in true Jedi fashion, Jovan slices twice at the supports of a guard tower and sends it crashing down doing two things: 1) causing a diversion to load the supplies and 2) smasing the electric fence down and providing an escape route.

By this time, Vangar (pirate Lord who stole the cargo) was alerted to their presence and sent several guards to capture them. Unfortuanately for Vangar, Daala made short work of them with his blaster but Councilor Fey'lya was hit and wounded, making the escape a little more difficult. Jovan proceeded to damage the main right ion drive of the pirate Patrol Corvette with his lightsaber, allowing Daala to throw several Frag grenades into the hull matrix. With a terrific explosion, the Corvette was heavily damaged and Daala and Everlight were rocketing through the surrounding forest on a "borrowed" skiff.

They weren't done yet, however, as several speeder bikes began to chase them through the forest. They managed to heal themselves with some medpacs from the New Republic supplies and set up a light repeating blaster. To their puzzlement, however, the pirates began to back off. Stopping for fear of an ambush, the group saw two AT-PT's come out of the woods ahead. If they would have continued, they would surely have failed. At this time, Jovan contacted Speak, his R2 unit on his comlink to get him to fly the Kestrel II to them. Jovan used the Force to raise the entire skiff up into the cargo bay of Daala's ship just as the AT-PT's arrived and shortly before the somewhat repaired and limping Corvette began pursuit. The ailing Corvette was no match for the Kestrel II, and after a few laser cannon shots were exchanged, the Kestrel II escaped into the solace of hyperspace.
