| 47 ASW4 Dean and Kyner met on Coruscant. Hired to ship supplies from the Borleias Medical Center to Sullust by Dr. Tribanki (human male). However, pirates raided the Medical Center just before Dean and Kyner arrived to load the medical supplies. The two battled the pirates on the surface of the planet and rescued the scientists and doctors there. Tengin 188 (a Khommite clone scientist) was sent with Dean and Kyner to avoid the pirate gang. The three escaped from the pirates after a short space battle with their Corellian Corvette "The Veskkan". Tengin 188 was delivered a short time later back to Dr. Tribanki. |
| 48 ASW4 Dean and Kyner traveled to Nal Hutta and Nar Shaddaa in Dean's YT-2400 ship to investigate the loss of a Republic cruiser. The met Vik Reshton, a smuggler. It is discoverd that Nelga the Hutt attacked the ship and took the delegates on board as prisoners. The 4 were rescued and returned home after millions of credits worth of damage was inflicted on Nelga's complex. Dean and Kyner made a shipment with Vik Reshton to a Republic base hidden on the Imperial controlled planet of Talasea. The shipment was successful. |
| 49 ASW4 Kyner and Dean traveled to Kaybon, in the Minos Cluster, to investigate reported Imperial activity there. They discovered Imperials there for the purpose of obtaining slaves. A dark jedi, Baynus Khom fought Kyner in the port city of Vim Dooba and was defeated very quickly, but not killed. Baynus Khom recovered from nasty lightsaber wound and is determined to get revenge. Dean, Kyner, and Vik travel to M'haeli to rescue Republic soldiers in trouble. One of them was a young jedi named Rysin Lymor, a human female. The Empire had taken control of the planet and built a large base in the city of N'croth. Rysin and the others were rescued after a few months of being detained. Baynus Khom takes on a new master. |
| History and Timeline |
| 50 ASW4 Kyner and Dean met up with Thurk and Nao on Reyslk (in the Minos Cluster). They traveled to Agamar in response to a Jedi Master's force call. There they worked with Devan Simber to fight 2 dark jedi overseeing the construction of an Imperial base. There were 4 other jedi that also responded to Devan's force call, one of them being Felkirk Lo (Kyner's former master). The base was damaged severely by Dean, Thurk and other anti-Imperial folk in the area, and only 1 of the 2 dark jedi were killed. Devan took Kyner as a student and they traveled to Coruscant. Their passenger liner was siezed by the Empire before they arrived and they escaped by hiding inside a Lambda shuttle. A small alien that was on the ship also escaped with Kyner, Gu-Nob. Kyner and Devan parted shortly after arriving on Coruscant and Kyner took off back for the Minos Cluster and met up with the rest of the group 4 months later. Dean, Thurk, and Nao met up with Wendell Biggz and worked together for a short time running cargo from Travin to Reyslk. Kyner and Gu-Nob met back up with Dean, Thurk, and Nao on Reyslk just as the Empire sent a fleet of Star Destroyers into the planet's orbit. General Jerrald Nox led the fleet and Baynus Khomm was with him. Kyner and Dean rescued a Mon Calamari technical wiz (named Kask Domin) from the Imperials that occupied Reyslk's capital, Nurron. They escaped and hid in the ice dust cluster surrounding the 4 moons of Reyslk. Kyner, Thurk, and Nao met up with Yallik Misnser on Travin. They travel to a remote section of the planet with Gill Froney (a news reporter) where the Empire had wiped out a small Rebel base hidden in the canyons. A small group of Imperial soldiers jumped the group as they searched the remains of the destroyed Rebel base. The Imperials were defeated and the location to their own base was discovered. The group travelled there and posed as stormtroopers. They were able to rescue 18 rebel prisoners and destroy a good portion of the base. Nao sent some Q-2P attack droids on a suicide mission causing mass destruction. Moff Shirkon came to the base for a surprise inspection and was injured during the fray. They escaped with the prisoners and went back to Travin City. Two months later, Bosk Nabo contacted the group and wanted to do a job on another Imperial base. This base however, was on the planet of Reyslk and was not completed at the time, still under construction. General Jerrald Nox was in command. Yallik swung a shady deal with a rodian gangster named Weliy Poosz and "acquired" 35 thermal detonators... for a price to be named later. Bosk, Kyner, Yallik, Thurk, and Nao travelled to Reyslk in an old beat up Lambda shuttle. The party was able to set several detonators on the power generators. Yallik was discovered as an imposter (as they were all wearing the stormtrooper get up again), and had to blast his way back to the shuttle. Kyner, Thurk, and Bosk made a run for the shuttle but they ran into Baynus Khom. Kyner dropped his stormtrooper armor and fought with Baynus once again as Thurk and Bosk ran for the shuttle. Kyner cut off Baynus' right arm, just below the elbow defeating him. Kyner was able to jump to the shuttle and escape with the rest of the group. The damage to the base was massive and set the Imperials back considerably. |
| Last time we were together adventuring... 7-10-01. |
| 51 ASW4 The Imperials have decided it would be best to kill the group causing so many problems (Dean, Kyner, Thurk, and Nao) and caught up with them on the planet of Travin. The group was barely able to escape after an ambush attempt outside of Travin City. They travelled to Karideph where they were contacted by Tengin 188. He needed help and was being hunted on Eliad. He had built an extremely advanced cloning vat while imprisoned by the Empire (mainly an evil jedi named Donner Xun). Tengin 188 escaped and contacted the group for help. While escaping with the cloning vat, Thurk il' Vondus was shot and killed by an Imperial Security droid. As they loaded up the cloning vat and took off in Dean's freighter, a Star Destroyer was awaiting them in orbit. The group was caught in the tractor beam and taken as prisoners. Dean and Nao were taken to the Kinzua sector and dropped off on an unknown planet (they later discovered its name to be Tymor). (Tengin 188 was taken to an unknown location.) They were taken and used for slave labor to construct another Imperial base. Dean and Nao met up with a few other prisoners and they planned an elaborate escape attempt. Not only did they succeed in escaping, but they ended up destroying the base. They flew away, along with all of the other prisoners, to a Republic base in the Kinzua sector. Kyner was taken to an unknown location, seperate from Dean and Nao. Donner Xun took him to a planet called "Verve" by way of an energy cage, and he met the head cheese Master Kosh. Once there, Kyner was asked to join in the Imperial Navy and embrace the dark side. He refused and was used as an instruction piece for two other jedi. They were told by Master Kosh to kill Kyner in a lightsaber duel. Kyner was given his lightsaber and he defeated the 2 jedi and escaped jumping out of a window. Several Saber droids gave chase, along with Donner Xun, but they were not able to track Kyner. Two weeks later, Kyner was able to sneak aboard a freighter and hide in the cargo bay until they were safely away from the planet. He took control of the ship, and had the pilots fly him to Ord Mantell where he sent them on their way, without their freighter. There Kyner met a sullustan named Nuveb Bladuu, and they joined together to start to try and locate Dean and Nao |
| 52 ASW4 Dean and Nao figure out where the no name ship has been taken... and they travel there in a Lambda shuttle. Kyner and Nuvey also find where it is and the group meets up just outside of Vantool 5's atmosphere, in the Lorax Sector. An Imperial base, which was supposed to be super-duper secret, was discovered and demolished by the group. (It was a "special operations" type of base.) Dean's ship was retrieved and the group took off for the Kira sector, where a small rebel outpost was. In the Kira sector the Minos factor met up with the small base commander, a wookie named Gurwankykk. He asked the group to help them out with a problem in the Elrood sector. The republic outpost and area around it, was in utter ruins because of an information leak about its location. The Empire had nearly finished it off, and this base was summoned to help rescue the rest of the good guys. The Minos factor helped with the rescue and a human female, Jesner Fabe, was met and she became friends with the group... especially Dean. She knew of a near-human named Skudack that leaked information to the Empire and wanted to put an end to his shinanigans. We all traveled to Shesharile and met up with Skudack and friends (including Baynus Khom). Naturally a mass brawl insued. Skudack's number one bodyguard (Struung) fought with Dean for a while, but was beaten. Baynus was trying to strike a deal with Skudack, but was unable to close any deal... he was killed during the fight... finally. Jesner, Dean and Kyner blew up the place and left the crime ridden planet. Jesner asks to be a part of the Minos factor... The gang is now up to six. |
| Just before the end of the year, the Minos Factor returned to Reyslk only to find the place an Imperial supporting planet. Skudack contacted Jesner and leaked information about General Nox's plan to "use up" the planet and it's resources. Skudack only mentioned there was a grand scheme to start construction of a very large space station in the system. A man named Dunn Lormas contacted the Minos factor and struck a deal for protection. The Lormas family began debating the Nerskal family for the government position of Reyslk, and Dunn wanted some serious protection (which is why he picked the group). Dean, Kyner, Nao, Jesner, and Nuveb broke into the Imperial headquarters building and caused some more mayhem and destruction, but not until they learned of the Empire's plan for Reyslk. General Nox and the Nerskal family have allied and consider the Lormas family move to be very dangerous to their plans. Once the explosions started, Kyner fought a dark jedi named Jola Kinburner and defeated her. Nao downloaded information from a computer concerning plans of the Empire, and Dean, Jesner, and Nuveb fought off the security droids. General Nox escaped and realized that his old nemesis group has returned. |
| 53 ASW4 Donner Xun returns to the Minos Cluster. Moff Shirkon also returns to the Minos Cluster and he is tired of this "problem system." Yallik Misnser returns to the system after taking care of some business on his home planet. He quickly joins up with the Minos Factor. Yallik has learned Weliy Poosz has been trying to contact him. The Minos Factor assisted the Lormas family as they started their campaign for the government office of Reyslk. An elaborate assassination attempt was thwarted by the group within the famous Tolby Cathedral, located in Nurron. Donner Xun was confronted by Kyner Vorn within the Cathedral, and they both got crazy with their lightsabers. Kyner defeated Xun, chopping off his left leg just below the knee. Xun's lightsaber was destroyed, but he was able to escape, knowing that Kyner would not kill a defenseless opponent. The Lormas family took office, beating out the Nerskal family, which had been in the government for 9 years. The Imperials were not happy with this (due to the nice treatment the Nerskal's had given them) and several Star Destroyers started showing up. Countless debates have taken place concerning the Empire's right to be here. The Lormas family continue to fight against the Empire and many think war will surely be coming soon. The Minos Factor bumped into an old friend, Vik Reshton, and he told them about mass quantities of Imperial equipment on Osi Prime (the 5th planet in the system, just beyond Reyslk). Information he had said there was enough equipment there to start a planetary war. He passed that information on to us so we could go destroy it the Minos Factor way. However, Vik took money from the Empire (General Nox) to set up the group. A trap was laid for the group on Osi Prime. The Minos Factor was able to fight through the trap, but not without losses. Nuveb's A-wing, the Pawn-duk was destroyed as the Imperials set several explosive charges on it's hull before the group could get back to their ships. After leaving Osi Prime in Dean's no-name ship, (still no name for the sucker), Skudack contacted the group. He heard about the attack on the love of his life (Jesner Fabe) and set up Vik Reshton and Bordifon (Vik's partner), and offered us an invite to the "revenge session". Skudack sprung the attack on Vik at a rival crime organization casino on the planet of Shesharile. Needless to say, Skudack's mental state got the best of him and he started shooting at Vik and everyone else. Buskhon the bounty hunter (employer unknown but suspected to be Nelga the Hutt or Weliy Poosz), was following Vik becuase he figured the Minos Factor would eventually bump into him (he was right) and he started taking shots at the group. He was able to escape after a brief entanglement. Vik Reshton was killed, along with several others. Skudack actually sent a replica droid in his place to do his dirty work... remember, he is mental, not stupid. And of course, the droid had a thermal detonator set on a timer to explode. The casino isn't much more than a large pile of rubble now. Dean and Kyner met up with Yallik and all three are contacted by one of Weliy Poosz's men. Weliy met with the group and was ready to cash in on the favor Yallik owed him. A gladiator slave on the planet of Pzob was to be picked up and transported back to Reyslk. Nelga the Hutt appearantly wanted this particular gamorrean and Weily was prepared to bring it to her. As Dean, Kyner and Yallik made contact with the slave trader on Pzob and the pick up was made. The group befriended the slave gladiator. Groth, the gamorrean offered to work with the Minos Factor as a companion. Of course this did nothing but upset Weliy and his men (not to mention Nelga the Hutt who already had a bounty on us). Also, a load of stolen Imperial equipment was discovered and turned over to the Reyslk government. Moff Shirkon and General Nox decided to lay out an option for Reyslk. Either go to war against the Imperials, or surrender to their rule. Naturally, Dunn Lormas called the Minos Factor and gave us the heads up that they were intent on fighting. Bosk Nabo (with perfect timing) got his hands on an Imperial Star Destroyer, and a size 47 model 2 heavy bomb. The bomb was rig loaded onto Dean's ship and dropped on one of the attacking Star Destroyers. Bosk, and his team of suicidals, rammed the other Star Destroyer and both crashed on the surface of Reyslk. Bosk can't do anything small. The Empire was pushed out of the Rennsk system as more Republic ships arrived. General Nox was found dead on board his demolished ship. Information was discovered telling the location of the planet Verve, Master Kosh's place. Nao Burc says goodbye, and he strikes out on his own. He plans on keeping in touch with the Minos Factor as all good friends do. |
| 54 ASW4 Reyslk spent months cleaning up the damage caused by the battle, which is now reffered to as "The Battle of Reyslk". The Minos Factor was attacked by Buskhon the bounty hunter once again. Buskhon set up a trap and enlisted the aid of several soldiers for hire and was nearly successful in catching his bounty. The fight left Dean and Nuveb injured, but in the end, Buskhon was defeated and captured. The group turned him over to authorities and collected a handsome reward. Buskhon will spend a long time in different correction facilities with all of his past disregard for laws and governments. He is currently serving a 48 year sentence on Reyslk. Nuveb, with his share of the reward money, was able to purchase a used A-wing and he named it the Trundon. A special infiltration team was sent to Verve to gather information, led by Bosk Nabo. The group consisted of 20 members. After a week of no contact, the Minos Factor was asked to go and check on the team. The group travelled to Verve and discoverd the planet in ruin. The base where Master Kosh was stationed was now abandoned. The infiltration team's remains were found in a pit. The only thing left of them were their burnt skeletons. The team had come under heavy attack by the Imperials and were captured, all but two soldiers. Bosk Nabo was captured and along with his men, they were burned to death. Master Kosh left behind several valuable items to be destroyed and two dark jedi arrived as the Minos Factor searched the area. The two jedi attacked the group but Kyner was able to defeat them both in a lightsaber fight. A stash was found of interesting items, one of which was a jedi holocron. Another was an ancient book case with the history of an unknown alien race (which gave the group a nice reward for its return). The group gathered the valuable items and left the doomed planet. Kosh set in motion a biological disaster just before he left and the planet turned on itself and burned up all breathable air. Verve once a thriving planet of forests and life, now a burned, poisoness planet. The last two members of the group were located and rescued. Kyner, Jesner, and Dean went to Coruscant to return the jedi holocron over to the jedi council. The Minos Factor was asked to represent the New Republic with regards to joining the Government. The group travelled to Travin and spoke with the Seven Council members. Yallik gave an interesting speech and basically told the entire council to "kiss off, you worthless politicians..." Needless to say, Yallik may have burned a bridge or two (not that he cares). The meeting was as expected and the vote still remained the same, and that was to stay an independent sector. The Council decided to let each system decide on their own, either to join the Republic or to stay independent. Reyslk is the only planet to openly join the Repbulic. The group confronted and fought against a group of bounty hunters known only as Jedi Killers just after a banquet on Travin. Jedi Master Cen-dow contacted the group and asked for assistance in gathering information about the mysterious group of bounty hunters. The Minos Factor travelled to Eliad and went to the city of Vistall, where an old "friend" was the governer; Kobb Nerskal. The group discovered the city was crawling with anti-jedi supporters and also learned that Kobb Nerskal is responsible for funding and equiping the group of bounty hunters. It is a widely known fact that Kobb Nerskal can't stand jedi and it is no wonder that he has started such a thing. The Minos Factor group decides to go their own way and split. The characters do plan on keeping in touch... because what if we decide to use these guys again??? |
| 55 ASW4 The new set of characters steps in... Voldo Dreela and Olnor Bromide meet as a job offer comes up to smuggle some illegal spice to Adarlon. Gusty Rollothum hires the two to run a hot cargo. The two get acquainted while on the trip and run into trouble once on Adarlon. Voldo and Olnor quickly learn they fight well together and the mission is a success. Not long after, the two search for a bounty on a wanted sleeze ball named Jabesk Mo (who just happened to work for Skudack). He was tracked down and captured, after a brief scuffle. Voldo and Olnor make decent money and figure this isn't such a bad life... smuggling and looking for bounties. Voldo and Olnor run another spice run, except this time to Reylsk. Gusty hired them out again for a final run to Reyslk. During the construction of the Republic's space station, there have been many attacks on the planet from different criminal organizations (violently stating their opinion about the New Republic). Voldo and Olnor used a terrorist attack as a diversion to deliver the goods. Gusty Rollothum hires Voldo and Olnor to gain information on an unknown smuggler boss named Ch'nar Mulldun. Through the course of the investigation, the two meet Yallik Minsner and they agree to work together rather than against one another. A short time later, Skudack hires out the three to infiltrate an enemy that has taken over several small illegal mining operations. The group contacts the quarren Goll Toulbum, a quarren, and defeats his group on an island in one of the large, dirty lakes of Shesharile. Goll had a way with words after being caught and got under Olnor's skin. Olnor executed Goll with a blaster shot to the head at point blank range, which resulted in the first dark side point ever issued. (Got to start somewhere, right?) Skudack hires the group to make a couple of smuggle runs to the Corporate Sector where a massive corporate war is under way. The planets of Roonadan and Bonadan have been in turmoil for a while with two companies fighting for mining rights. Markhon Corp. and Tunlobe Inc. have been at war for almost a year. Roonadan's only moon, Folmein, is the source of the fighting. Voldo, Yallik, and Olnor shipped Markhon Corp. supplies amidst massive fighting. The group turned around a month later, along with 3 other smuggler ships, and shipped foodstuffs to the Markhon Corp. Tunlobe had a blockade set up around the moon and Markhon was slowly being defeated. However, one of the four smugglers ships had several tons of weapons on board rather than food and medical supplies (unknown to Voldo, Olnor, and Yallik). The group came under heavy attack and were beaten quickly by the massive blockade made up of 3 Nebulon B frigates. One smugglers ship was captured and taken prisoner but Voldo spoke with the Neb. B and offered his cargo of food and medical supplies for the release of the smugglers. So, Voldo dropped off the cargo on board the Neb B. to Tunlobe Inc. rather than Markhon Corp. and the 5 smugglers were released. Needless to say, they were grateful. Voldo and Olnor were contacted by Gusty Rollothum again to steal back a cargo that was stolen from him. A human female named Tsalla Vey swiped a valuable cargo that Gusty had en route to Nelga the Hutt. Gusty was very worried that if he did not get the cargo to Nelga, he might end up as a cheap decoration, frozen in carbonite hanging on one of her walls. Voldo and Olnor located Tsalla and re-aquired the cargo, after a gunfight, and shipped it on to Nelga the Hutt. |
| 56 ASW4 The Empire returns to the Minos Cluster in hopes to take advantage of such an "out of the way sector." The begin construction of two massive space stations orbiting Eliad. Gusty Rollothum hired Voldo and Olnor to steal information regarding the layout plans for the stations. After completing the mission, Olnor made Gusty angry by trying to get more money out of the deal. A few days later, Bordifon contacts Voldo and Olnor and sets up a meeting. He wanted restitution for the death of Goll Toulbum. There was no agreement met and a massive gunfight ensued. Bordifon was shot in the head by Olnor after all was said and done. Needless to say, Olnor and Voldo were making some powerful enemies left and right. A hit was placed on the two and they barely escaped with their lives as a group of bounty hunters tried to gun them down in an ambush on Shesharile. Valien Murr and Tesner Brinkmen meet and are asked to assist with the recovery of a family that has been sold into slavery on Kaybon. Sgt. Konta and Valien's Jedi master, Sonda Jien travel to Kaybon with Valien and Tesner. The family was located and after a brief fight with several soldiers and a dark jedi named Tain Morros, the group escapes with the family. The Republic traced the evil pirate gang that has been causing all sorts of slavery problems back to an asteroid base in the Gesaril system. Valien and Tesner were a part of the team that went to the location and destroyed the base. Shesharile turns into the grounds for a massive crimelord war. Valien and Tesner meet with Skudack and Dien Taulmer (on seperate dates and locations) to try to slow down the fighting. The Republic's concern is that innocents are being slaughtered. While at Dien Taulmer's estate, Tain Morros is confronted and fought. It is learned that Dien has an Imperial connection. |
| 57 ASW4 The Republic asks Tesner and Vailen to assist with the transport of several million credits worth of bacta tanks to a location in the Corporate sector. A sullustan named Tylon Cobnebb infiltrated the ranks of the crew on board a Barloz Heavy Transport (the ship we were to use) and nearly stole the bacta tanks along with a few other pirates. Valien and Tesner were able to thwart his plans however. Lesarus Morros, Tain Morros' brother, learned of Vallien and Tesner's actions against Tain. Seeking revenge, as all dark jedi's seem to do, he set up an elaborate trap at the base of a volcano on Reyslk for Valien and Tesner. He has connections within the Republic and used his hooks to specifically send Valien and Tesner on this "mission." While travelling to the location thinking an Imperial spy base was under secret construction, Lesarus sprung his trap and attacked Valien and Tesner. Once Lesarus discovered he was beaten, he triggered an explosion set deep within the volcano causing a massive eruption. Valien and Tesner survived while Lesarus' tomb lay under tons of molten lava. Sgt. Konta (Valien and Tesner's main hook up with the Republic) is concerned about the "mole" that Lesarus was able to contact. An investigation takes place and the Republic scout team called "Tandum" was discovered and brought to justice. Tesner is contacted by a group of scientists that wish to set up a lab on the 5th planet in the Pergitor system, named Telthemier. Tesner's ship is captured by an Imperial Star Destroyer, which was cloaked while orbiting Telthemier. Turbus the Hutt, cousin of Nelga the Hutt, threatens to kill the scientists if Valien and Tesner do not find a hidden stash of Imperial arms somewhere on the planet. Valien and Tesner find the abandoned cargo area and discover the stash has long since been taken. Turbus, in his fit of rage, orders his men to kill Valien and Tesner, as well as the scientists. Tesner and Valien had aid fighting against the thugs from a force sensitive creature called the "Dolipher." A potential contact was made in Turbus' group, Fulton, a human male. He aided in the escape from Telthemier secretly. The Imperials advance on Kaybon and Karideph. Kaybon is taken without trouble, but Karideph resists. A massive battle takes place. Karideph asks for the Republic's assistance and Valien and Tesner get in on the action. The Empire has moved one of their two space stations into Karideph's orbit, using the slow hyperdrive installed. Admiral Tullmer and Jedi Master Luke Skywalker arrive and ask Valien and Tesner to locate a key individual named Delton Ambain. Delton is a homeless, old man, with a very accute power to see and possibly alter the future, and he lives in the underbelly of Karideph on the streets. Luke and Admiral Tullmer are concerned that the Empire might know of him and attempt to use his power to their advantage. Valien and Tesner land on Karideph amidst the battle and locate Delton. Pirc Mulyon, an evil Zabrak jedi, also is searching for Delton. Pirc attacks Valien, double bladed lightsaber against double bladed lightsaber, but Valien wins out, killing the more powerful dark jedi knight. Tesner and Delton are ambushed and nearly beaten by two very tough special ops soldiers. Tesner nearly was killed, but Delton was delivered to the command ship. |
