Mission Briefing: Recent digging in the Valley of the Dark Lords has uncovered caves beneath the tombs. The caves rest on the very doorstep of the Sith Temple and yet they are infested with various creatures. Numerous shyracks and wraids inhabit the caves and their already aggressive nature has been worsened due to the dark side energies of the tombs and the planet, making them extremely vicious and wild. The caves need to be cleared so that digging and exploration can continue, and that the Sith at the temple can train in piece. But there’s something else lingering in the caves, amongst the shywracks and the wraids, a group of animals who are patiently waiting for the Sith to give them an opening.

Before we begin, let's discuss plot. Any ideas for things you want to have happen? Any plot twists? Something to make this more interesting than simply "See Hssiss. Kill Hssiss"?

[Miri Mojito]

Well This will be the darkest place Mirian will have ever set foot, considering she has just fallen... Id personally like to see her lose herself in the dark energies. You know complete lack of focus, over aggression towards everything... almost like being drunk off the darkside.

This leads to potential conflicts. The mission itself seems easy enough as none of the characters, im assuming, are aware of the hssiss. Simply go in remove some vermin and thas it. So even after Mirian loses her mind then the additional hssiss problems occur.

Also, since Miraluka use the Force to see, and the place is very highly corrupted, it's possible that her vision down there gets cloudy or weird in other ways.

No, none of the characters should already know about the Hssiss. Plus, they're probably concealed, so they can't be sensed through the Force easily.

Hmmm... I'm thinking cave-in.

[Miri Mojito]

I like both ideas... Mirian could be rendered almost blind... and with the cave in.. its really putting them in Peril when it should have been a simple mission.

They could be forced to find a different way out. Maybe punch through into some ancient sith training ground? something with relics and the likes.

No doubt a dificult RP but one that would be worth it for sure.

Cho has been called odd, split personna, undefined. I want this post to show his true nature. I also would like Cho to be poisined by the Hssiss to remove any lightside effect that was the result of a jedi trying to break Cho will, this was during subterrel mission. Another point since Cho has been marked as a traitor when the time is right I would like Cho swamp by the last of the Hssiss and be left behind. For some that won't be hard, only Miri's char knows Cho. Yet with her problem it shouldn't matter or be a prob.

As the others of the group make it free and to the temple Cho then shows fully effected by the darkside poisin. No love, no fellow feeling just pure darkness and rage Cho's true nature. Him being in this state will make for a hazordous time for others so that he will have to be moved to Zoist until the poisin clears his system.

Well that is about all that I know for Cho . . . . for now atleast.

[timtank]

just tell me when your ready to go...

[Miri Mojito]

What would be a good cause fer a cave in? There are a couple ways to go with that. Possibly an explosion at the surface by a seperate excavation team could cause a cave in. There is also the potential for a fight to break out and someone gets a little to over active with telekinetic powers causing a cave in.

[timtank]

Or how about one very large Hiss controlling the others, it crashes into the walls a few times and maybe at the end we all combine are powers to throw it. After that it hits a column and boom goes the dynamite!

Oh and how about the idea of some powerful sith artifacts found in the cave. Everybody sees it and as we get close the ground starts to fall apart and its lost in the cave in.

[Miri Mojito]

yeah.. like indiana jones style.. artifacts are a trap.. someone goes and grabs one triggering an ancient sith mechanism that brings down the entrance way

[sparrow]

Sorry for the delay. Here we go. Check first post for link.

[Foxfire]

It seems we have lost Miri I could get another to take this ones place. It would not take to long.

[Foxfire]

Is this thing still on or what because I'd like to see it continue.

[sparrow]

Hey Foxfire, it's been a while and I think I want to see if I can revive this mission. Would you still be in?

[Foxfire]

Yup your on And all ready worked the out come to Honog's future actions. When ever and where ever Pm and >>>>>I'll be there.

If you will have him I can have Zexva pop in Here is his bio so if you want him, and think he won't die lol let me know.

[sparrow]

Sounds good, Solo. Once we get one more, I believe we can start.

As you can see higher up in the thread, we've already done a bit of discussion about possible ideas for the thread, such as cave-ins, dark side vision weirdness, etc...

So if you've got any ideas or preferences of your own, post 'em here and let us know.
