(In which Lialla recounts the team's first mission, "Shadows of Corruscant".)
Our story begins when the Jedi Council�s own Master Windu and Supreme Chancellor Vallorum summoned Brin�tac Kyen�tir, a nobleman who was once the aid of a senator from Kothlis, Geldar Tharn, a Jedi Padawan to Master Orruwarr who has gone on some mission of his own, Tarrsk, a Trandoshan warrior and close companion to Geldar, Nyarchagga, a very technical and highly skilled dug with his own spy droid named Gnat, Satchal Paige, a troubled Jedi Padawan of the former Jedi Master Jin Tai Lo, and last but not least, Tso Guihu, a Sullustan navigator whose crew was butchered by the same murderer as Master Lo. Master Windu and Chancellor Vallorum needed a special task force to protect the Chancellor from a renegade group known as the Flail. Since the Flail was believed to have some sort of connection to a dark Jedi named Zegmon Pent, Master Windu and Vallorum believed that the special task force would be perfect in helping to solve the mystery surrounding Master Lo�s demise. However, they were strictly warned not to engage the dark jedi himself for fear they would not be powerful enough. There job was simply to protect the Supreme Chancellor.
There were three attempts made on the Chancellor. The first was when my companions first arrived. A renegade was attempting to set up explosives on Vallorum�s platform where his speech would be delivered. The renegade was disguised as a member of the maintenance crew, but my friends discovered him and foiled the plan. The next attempt was at a weather control center where the renegades attempted to alter the weather patterns to destroy the Chancellor via harsh winds and lightning. Again my companions thwarted their efforts. Finally, the renegades made a direct assault on the Chancellor when he was making his speech, but my companions thwarted them once more and brought the Flail to its knees.
During the battle they faced Zegmon Pent only to discover that he was not a Jedi at all. Although he wielded a lightsaber, he had no Force capabilities, and was thus defeated by Geldar and Satchal. Tso Guihu also managed to help thwart Zegmon�s plot to crash a speeder into the Chancellor while Tarrsk, Brin�tac, and Nyarchagga helped keep the rest of the Flail at bay. With incredible skill Tso managed to pull the speeder out of harms way just in time to save everyone.
Shortly after capturing Pent, my friends learned while interrogating him that he was the apprentice to some dark Jedi named Savor Kibbs. Savor had left for Naboo for some sort of task, but before Pent could really tell them anything further he died in the most mysterious of manners.
I must go now, my friends are calling. I will write more later.
