OOC: (SO I am New, and I just want to start Role Playing, So I am starting this Thread, feel free to join, I promise it will be very fun! )

Wetyin's Colony

"Wetyin's Colony was a planet located within the Wetyin's Colony system of the Gordian Reach in the Outer Rim Territories region of the galaxy. A dry agriworld, it was settled by colonists from Setor around 10 BBY and was later largely abandoned."
-"While the colony was originally known for being a "new-world settler" (meaning the colonists went there to try and begin a new civilization) The details of Wetyin's Colony was a mystery. However, after the obiliteration of the Outer Rim Planets by the Gulag Virus, The remnants of the Empire sent entire fleets back to the planet, many of which never returned. One night in Naar Shaada, there was an old Empire Colonel, who was stabbed in an alley way, There he made a recording, of his last words. The video recording was discovered by Smugglers, and uploaded to a Smuggler network inside the Republic."
"Great Treasure awaits those who desire it, in Wetyin's Colony. It was a secret reserve of the anceint Galactic Empire, left over from when the Empire took over the Banking clan. Wealth awaits, but beware the powers the planet contains, no one, has made it out alive." -End Transmission-



*IT IS HERE.... That Verdict Hook, A Mandalorian Soldier, ordered to investigate this matter, sits in a Cantina in a Neutral Space station in the fringe, looking for warriors like himself, that would be willing to put there lives on the line, for the greatest amount of wealth imaginable.*

**Verdict Sits at bar, drinking from the Cantina, he is dressed in normal clothes, a ciggarette hanging from his lips, he scans the Cantina, looking for some passing warrior, or Bounty Hunter, someone who he thinks would accept the challenge.**

The other man at the bar looked an awful lot like the notorious rebel and hyperspace explorer Jorus Merrill, but Jorus Merrill had died when the Gypsymoth was shot down on Empress Teta. Everyone knew THAT.

The man at the bar nursed his third mug of lum. The bartender had spent the evening on the verge of asking him to leave the shotgun in his car. Double barreled, eight gauge, break action, forged of Mandalorian iron and scarred to seven hells, the shotgun rested against the drinker's bar stool.

(This is the writer of Alli Wren by the way [member="Verdict Hook"])
Eldoc was there drinking whatever the bar's strongest drink was, his armor showed its wear, being repaired to be funtional but obviously was not made to look pretty, granted his cloak covered most of it. He sighed and took a swig of his drink. He looked around noting the various other patrons and gave them a once over. It seemed like tonight wasn't very happening, but then again that was fine with Eldoc. He was still lying low from his stint with the confederacy. That was a basket of worms he wasn't going to step in again. Nope he was going to stay and drink his pain away, the damn mentalist had opened up memories he had buried. The time he spent abandoned on korribon had not been good to his mind. Eldoc still woke up in a sweat most nights, and all the progress he had made was gone because of the man who had beaten him so utterly.

[Verdict Hook]

*The man who looked like Jorus Merrill intrigued Hook. Verdict was familiar with the the reputation that the great rebel had, but he had also heard of his death. All in all, it was besides the point. Verdict watched as he controlled his side of the Cantina, just with his prescense. His shotgun lying against the bar stool. Verdict thought that he was a perfect candidate to join him on a mission that would make them exceedling wealthy. Wealthier some of the Houses of Alderaan. As he did one last sweep of the Cantina to find other candidates, he saw a warrior he wore armor, clearly worn in combat, although he was trying to cover it up with his cloak, he had the rugged look of a conquerer. Verdict watched as he pounded down a few shots of the strongest drink the Cantina had. "Perfect" Verdict thought to himself, seeing that this man was looking like he needed a fresh start, a way to get back at someone or something that had wronged him in the past.*

*Verdict slipped some credits to the bar-keep, and walked into a private room that was normally reserved for lonely soldiers looking for a good time. As he walked across the Cantina, he watched as the waitresses walked up to the two men, and pointed to the Room that Verdict was heading into.*
All the waitresses said, was "A man said he has an opportunity for you.."

(OOC- Jorus, thanks for the advice! i posted a bio on my home page? is that what you are talking about? and Eldoc, what do you mean?)

 

[Eldoc Quasat]

( I was saying that I am the person you were mailing....I write the char Alli Wren as well )

Eldoc walked in with a clear ease, leaning against the door, taking a swig of his flask, as he settled. " What might you have that would interest me?" He asked with a stare. he measured the man's presence, even watching his aura. Eldoc knew a few tricks, and that was one of them, it was why he didn't lose track of his foes, even in the dark. It was going to be interesting, Eldoc had a feeling. Something told him that this man had a legitimate adventure.

((ah hell this sounds like it cold be fun and your bio can go in the about me section but it needs to go in the character section))

She wasn't one for drinking but Matsu was there, drinking much to the delight of the bartender for some jokes blue milk as she kept the black hat on over her head, obscuring her face and her force signature was muted. She was here trying out her equipment and had heard the news while raising an eyebrow and looking up a little from under the brim of the hat. She kept her taozin amulet nearby on her chest while she tinkered with the golden gauntlet on her hand. It had been a trade from a large man and refitting it to fit her form was a challenge but holding the gleaming gauntlet while she worked on tightening it up... She felt good about her odds in getting all of this. The promise of adventure had her more interested compared to others though and she was always up for exploring old places.

OOC/ In here, Verdict.

IC/ The thing about lum was, it didn't get you legitimately drunk. Pleasantly buzzed but clearheaded, Jorus paid his tab -- it never hurt to tie down loose ends before entering a room with a stranger -- and hoisted the shotgun under his arm. It wasn't loaded; in fact, it was unlocked at the breech. An assortment of color-coded and patterned shells resided in his terentatek-leather belt.

He got a sidelong glance or two when he got up; he got another glance or two when he shoved the curtain out of the way and entered the side room with the shotgun under his arm. He found one spacer and, leaning against the doorway just inside the curtain, one burly man with the look of a Force warrior.

He hadn't noticed the Atrisian-looking woman in the front room.

"What nerfneck here said." Black cybernetic eyes locked onto Verdict. "What's the deal?"

 

[Verdict Hook]

*As the men entered the room, Verdict sat down, he pulled out another ciggarette, and lit it. the smoke rose up partially covering his face. He glanced up at the two men as they entered the room, he smiled with his teeth, and took a puff.*
You both look like busy men, so i'll get to the point...
*just then they were interrupted as a woman with a black hat walked into the room as well. Verdict admired someone that took advantage of a situation.*
"...As I was saying.."
*he took another long drag of the cigarrette and blew the smoke out his nose.*
"Wetyin's Colony.... You all ever heard of it? It was a cache, an imperial reserve of credits right after the fall of the galactic republic. It is said that the Old Emperor brought in the most terrifying creatures throughout the galaxy and placed them all on the Colony to keep the credits safe. They say that he even created some of his own species cloning peices of creatures through their DNA, and by even creating force sensitive creatures. "The Planet is one of the most dangerous in the galaxy, and the entire facility is underground guarded. "
*Verdict smothered out his ciggarrette and looked up at his guests.*
I want to raid it. Get to the vault, and become one of the wealthiest men in the Galaxy. But i'll need help...
*Verdict reached into his pocket, and removed 3 100,000 credit chips, and threw them on the table toward his guests.*
"I have a team, some 20 men, myself, but I would like you all to join me. I promise, If we make it out alive, Our lives will never be the same."

OOC- How do you mention people? like Jorus, what did you type so everyone knew that you responded?) (sorry if that is a newb question. )

"Now that," said Jorus after a long moment, "is a sales pitch. Alright, friend, you've got yourself a shotgun for this job. I fly my own ship, I don't share berths or weapons, but I'll back you to the hilt on this one. Matter of fact, I happen to know a...contractor of sorts that'd pay over and above what we're after, just for blood or tissue samples of the critters we run into." He scratched his head. "Their business is containing this kind of site, and all assorted nastiness -- they're always lookin' for the raw materials of their next guard dogs. My, uh, sister runs it. So basically, even if we fail and don't die, pretty sure we've got a chance to at least get our expenses paid."

Matsu could hear the 'sales pitch' as is was and she had to admit while testing the gauntlet and it did sound like a way to go about it. Even the mention from Jorus well she cared little preferring not to hold grudges and have some adventure. Why not. "And do you have more room on this excursion?" She kept her hats brim low but sat there with a small grin on her face rather enjoying all of it and taking a quick glance for the rest of the people at the bar for this. She could make it work hopefully otherwise there was always going off and exploring a remote world for anything. "Never know when an extra hand will be needed."

*Verdict grinned as Jorus agreed, and he was very impressed at his idea to take a Medic with us to aquire tissue samples of the creatures that we would encouner.*
Thats a great idea, *he smiled* I knew you would be the right man for the Job, We have an accord! *Verdict puts his hand out to shake*
"I'm Verdict by the way, Verdict Hook,
*As Matsu stood in the doorway, asking if there was any room for her on the expedition, Verdict smiled.*
"If you feel like you can handle it.... of course"
*he then swung his hand over to her, sealing the deal.*
Now, preparation... We will meet outside the planet the day after tomorrow.
*Verdict closed the blind and inserted a memory stick into the holographic display in the table. The planet appeared, spinning in the air.*
"The entire planet is surrounded by a giant deflector shield, there is only one way on or off the planet, and that is through this space station."
*Verdict brought up the space station, it was small, about 1000 sq meters, with a long elevator shaft that was built all the way to the planet.*
"The Empire built it this way to ensure that none of the un-holy creatures that are on the planet would ever get off. It is rumored that the entire planet is fit to blow, if the defelector shield is taken down. So.."
*Verdict looked at Jorus's shotgun*
"....this will be a tight mission, perfect for close quarters."
*Verdict looked back at the map.*
"Prepare what you need, and meet there the day after tomorrow, we will meet in the Station, and take the lift down to the planet. Then the real excitement begins."
*Verdict looked back at everyone.* "Any questions?"

 

[Eldoc Quasat]

Eldoc nodded "Nope, just get me there... as I might of crashed the ship I came here in.. turns out my former apprentice was right to not trust me driving. " He chuckled as the newer stuff confused the heck out of him. Even after a while, he flew rather erratically. He took out his alchemical sword and his saber and checked them before sheathing them back in their places. " I am ready, just point what you want killed." He took a swig of his flask and sighed it was going to be a whole day before he got any fighting, well that was depressing. He had hoped the job was more immediate, he didn't like lotiering when there were things to be done. Else he was drinking or training. He didn't like the wait for something like a job, it left too many thoughts buzzing around one's mind.

Matsu looked at him and gave a bow of her head to while shaking to seal the deal. "I'll have my packs." She thought about what would be best to take and two satchel packs would be good with one of the equipment packs. Her coat would be able to handle the rest while looking over the rest and only having a smirk on her face to it. "None for now." Matsu turned moving to go back to her ship and gear up. Meeting where he had indicated would be half the fun.

Two days later, the YV-929 'Gypsymoth' touched down in the skyhook station. Leaving his ship in the hands of Beyyr and Miktik - his Wookiee first mate and Kushiban e gineer - Jorus disembarked.

**The "Final Verdict" a Mandalorian Venator Warship came out of lightspeed just outside of the Skyhook Space station, which was built onto the the planet. The Warship Sat in Orbit, as a small transport ship left its bay and headed to the Skyhook platform. Verdict Watched as he saw Jorus's Ship, dock.**
"Perfect timing..."
*Verdict placed his Mandalorian helmet on, and looked back at his platoon. All of them equipping their weapons, and testing their Jetpacks, levitating above the floor of the transport. As the airlock to skyhook opened, from Verdicts Platform, lights were already illuminated in the small cold corridor of the Space station. Jorus stood there, looking like he was ready to take on all the 7 hells himself.* Verdicts men all walked out, wearing their traditional Beskar Armor, men equipped with all types of weapons from scatterguns to plasma rifles, to chain laser cannons.*
"Nice to see you Jorus, "
*Verdict said as he approached him,*
"This is Vengence squad..."
*all of Vengence squad saluted Jorus, one of the soldiers with a chain-cannon looked around, and said "We ready to obliterate some of these Bantha-Fodders boys?" All the men *gave one upbrupt shout*
**Verdict Walked to the elevator door, and pressed the button.**
"Alright everyone, this is the only way on or off the planet. an Elevator, that is more than 100 Kilometers in length."
*As the door to the elevator opened, one of the Soldiers moaned, "Dear, God." As the door opened, the Metal interior was covered in frozen blood, clearly from more than 1 man. bloody handprints and pieces of flesh hung in the corners of the elevator. larger pieces, some appearing to be extremities where on the floor of the elevator. Verdict Stepped back.*
"Well, I guess this is where it starts." *He turned and looked to Jorus*
"It looks like the elevator can only handle about 10 at a time, we have my 20 man team, you and me, and Eldoc and Matsu,"... *he motioned to the door*
"Wildue... take your team and go down first, We will follow."
*One of the Mandalorian soldiers motioned for a group of 9 other men to follow him down. they walked into the elevator, and the doors shut. the mechanical wirring of the elevator began as the numbers above the door began to descend.
**Verdict looked at Jorus**
"When the elevator comes back, we're next."

 

[Eldoc Quasat]

"Well I mean here goes nothing... " Eldoc said taking a swig of his flask. It was unsure how eldoc got here but the fact was he was indeed here. The stolen cargo ship that had brought him here had seen better days but it was exactly its older nature that he loved. He would have to make sure to ditch it soon though, as he figured it would be found out soon enough.

Matsu had arrived in the Harlleqin and as she stood there working on the gauntlets the golden armor shined with one holding a datapad. She was wearing a bodysuit for protection and her coat. The equipment pack on her back while she held her satchel for anything. Sleek and quick under the hat. She was more looking at the others while she kept a pistol and hold out blaster but there wasn't much she knew about firearms. The remnant blast the biggest thing as it gleamed with the crystal on the hilt. She had a net and grapple gun in her bag with other gadgets as needed.

"Fast for an old skyhook," said Jorus, taking the opportunity to reexamine his belted shells. "Got a bad feeling about sending your boys in first, but too late, I reckon. Can't be helped."

By now he'd put two and two together and sorted out Matsu's identity. A wiser man might have played his cards closer to the chest, but with a mental shrug he addressed the war criminal.

"What you fiddling with over there, Ike?"

He butchered the pronunciation.

 

[Eldoc Quasat]

"You two know each other?" He asked leaning against the wall. It wasn't everyday he was with such an odd bunch. "I agree, It was a mistake not going first." Eldoc took another swig of his flask and pocketed it. "So I am Eldoc, in case any of you were wondering, I just want a good fight, you can count on me to have your back this whole job, I hope I can count on the same." He said double checking his own packs and ensuring his sword and saber were secure. It was going to be fun, if that blood on the skyhook was any sign. He also had a really bad feeling about those men sent ahead of them.
