DESCRIPTION

OutlawTech was the fanciful name given to a group of criminal slicers who manufactured security intrusion systems and electronic lock breakers. The criminals would be paid to make highly illegal modifications. It existed during the time of the Galactic Civil War.

In common slang, an outlaw tech was a technician who's speciality lay in unorthodox mechanical work that was questionable by factory and safety standards (if not outright illegal). This ranged from performing repairs and modifications on smuggling ships to building and modifying military-grade hardware such as weapons, explosives and communications equipment.

RATIONALE

Volt Reaver came to control the OutlawTech Group through a hostile takeover from an associate of Nes Teth the Elder .

  • While defensively armed, it is not built for prolonged engagements.
• Vulnerable During Deployment –
  
  • The landing phase is the most dangerous, as it must open its deployment doors to release beasts.

DESCRIPTION

The XK-99 War Beast Transport is a specialized transport designed for the rapid deployment of war beasts from orbit to battlefield conditions. Built for Sith-aligned warlords, crime syndicates, and private clients seeking unconventional warfare tactics, the XK-99 serves as a mobile cage for genetically enhanced monstrosities.

Equipped with reinforced containment cells, shock emitters, and automated restraint systems, the XK-99 ensures that its dangerous cargo remains subdued during transit. Upon reaching a battlefield, the dropship descends rapidly, deploying creatures via its direct ramp release, allowing them to immediately engage enemy forces. Once the creatures have been unleashed, the XK-99 can either remain airborne for retrieval or retreat back to orbit for redeployment.

Though the XK-99 is well-armored and equipped with defensive weaponry, it is not a frontline combat ship and relies on speed and coordination to execute its missions. Vulnerable during deployment windows, it must be escorted in heavily contested zones. Nevertheless, the XK-99 War Beast Transport remains an invaluable asset for those seeking to introduce chaos to the battlefield with monstrous precision.

• Intent: To introduce a controversial scientific theory regarding the potential circumvention of the Blackwall, exploring its implications for Sith society, espionage, and intergalactic relations. This holobook serves as both an in-universe artifact and a potential plot device for RP interactions.

GENERAL INFORMATION

• Media Name: Breaking the Blackwall: A Theoretical Approach to Bypassing the Impermeable
• Format: Holobook
• Distribution:
  
  • Scattered - The work is rare, with only a few copies in circulation among select scientists, rogue Sith Lords, and intelligence networks. Any attempt to widely distribute it is met with immediate suppression by the Sith Order.
• Length:
  
  • Long - A dense, technical read filled with equations, alchemical diagrams, and theoretical models. Estimated at over 500,000 words, supplemented by holographic simulations and data analysis.
• Description:

This holobook, authored by Doctor Volt Reaver of the OM-3N Science Bureau, presents a radical hypothesis on breaching the Blackwall an artificial hyperspatial barrier enforced through Sith alchemy, interdiction fields, and the Void Storms. Warsaw postulates that by exploiting weak points in the hyperspace anomalies and utilizing counter-ritual methodologies, a pathway through the Blackwall may be temporarily stabilized.

The text is highly technical, drawing from Sith sorcery, computational models, and physics theories bordering on heretical. It includes data gathered from failed breaching attempts, speculation on the workings of the Stormseeds, and proposals for potential bypass mechanisms.

The book has been declared forbidden by the Sith Order, and mere possession of a copy is grounds for execution or indefinite detainment. However, copies still circulate within secret scientific circles, and rumors suggest that elements within the Alliance, Jedi, and certain Sith factions are desperate to obtain a functional version of Warsaw's research.

SOCIAL INFORMATION

• Author: OM-3N Science Bureau
• Publisher: OM-3N Science Bureau
• Reception:
• Sith Imperial Authorities:
  • Immediate suppression. Any known copies have been destroyed, and ownership is met with lethal repercussions. The Sith Order has sent scouts across the galaxy to terminate the rogue Scientist, and all references to his works are to be purged from galactic universities.
• Scientific Community (Inside Sith Space):
  • A mixture of fear, fascination, and silent admiration. Some researchers secretly believe Warsaw was onto something, but few dare to speak of it publicly.
• Scientific Community (Outside Sith Space):
  • Theories derived from Breaking the Blackwall have surfaced in Galactic Alliance intelligence briefings and Jedi research logs, though the legitimacy of its claims remains disputed.
• Black Market and Intelligence Networks:
  • A highly sought-after artifact. Some smuggler syndicates and intelligence operatives will pay fortunes for a fragment of Warsaw's work.

Excerpt from Chapter 6:

"If one accepts the hypothesis that the Stormseeds serve as both stabilizers and keystones for the Blackwall's hyperspatial labyrinth, then it follows that by either corrupting, negating, or bypassing their influence, one may theoretically traverse through its defenses. However, the consequences of such an act remain unclear. Would the breach collapse the entire system? Would it alert every Sith Lord attuned to the Blackwall? Or would the traveler simply be torn apart in transit, as the data suggests from previous unauthorized attempts? More research is required, though acquiring such research is, in itself, a death sentence."

HISTORICAL INFORMATION

Dr. Volt Reaver is one of the leading scientist within the OM-3N Science Bureau, specializing in exotic physics and Force-based hyperspace anomalies. His work in the classified corridors of the Tarkin Initiative led him to potentially uncover secrets about the nature of the Blackwall that few had dared to explore.

Initially sanctioned as a thought exercise, Warsaw's research quickly drew the attention of Sith intelligence agencies when his calculations suggested potential vulnerabilities in the Blackwall's infrastructure. Whether out of hubris, desperation, or a misguided sense of scientific duty, he compiled his findings into Breaking the Blackwall.

Shortly after its limited distribution, Warsaw fled his laboratory after discovery by the Sith Order's Tsis'Kaar. The official narrative states that he was killed in action during the liberation of Empress Teta by the Galactic Alliance after working on biochemical weapons for the Dark Empire turned Empire Reborn.

Though in the chaotic struggle against the Imperial Warlords in the Core....no one can be certain.
