[hider=Changelog] Here I'll be keeping a record of any changes I enact on the CS for either character, with a timestamp as to when the change was made, and what was changed. 12/21/2017 7:13PM CST: Changed lightsaber color for Solace's lightsaber-pike to Green from Lilac. Additionally assigned colors to her shoto lightsabers. [/hider][hider=Notes] Anything not directly mentioned in the CS that I feel worth mentioning will be placed here. - While I mention both of their birth names in the CS, neither of them openly go by them anymore, and instead use the names they were given by the Luka Sene upon leaving for the Jedi Order. Very few people are still around who do know their true names, Zentraedies for one, and even the Empire's wanted bulletin mentions Solace by that name specifically. - The sisters will most often communicate telepathically through their bond, an action that I will identify directly like so: ++speech here++[/hider] [hr] [hider=Solace and Requiem][hider=Solace, The Dark Disciple][center][h1][color=a187be]Solace[/color][/h1] [img]https://78.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_maabhjeVOh1ry8rzlo4_250.gif[/img][/center] [color=a187be][b]|[u] {Full Name} [/u]|[/b][/color] [indent]Verra Alleron[/indent] [color=a187be][b]|[u] {Age} [/u]|[/b][/color] [indent]28[/indent] [color=a187be][b]|[u] {Gender} [/u]|[/b][/color] [indent]Female[/indent] [color=a187be][b]|[u] {Force Sensitive/Alignment} [/u]|[/b][/color] [indent]Yes - Dark[/indent] [color=a187be][b]|[u] {Appearance} [/u]|[/b][/color] [indent]Like all of her kind, Solace is incredibly human-like in appearance, and even moreso with her cybernetics. Standing at a rather average 5'9", she does not immediately strike the image of an imposing person in the slightest. Despite that, her lithe and athletic form comes from years of focus on physical fitness, and even the least revealing outfits shows that clearly upon closer inspection. Lean and toned muscle lay spring-taut underneath her porcelain skin, ready at a moment's notice to act. Even still, her body curves with a distinctly feminine allure, one that she is fully aware of and is not afraid to use to her advantage. Unlike her sister who tends to put most of her effort into keeping herself as "pretty" and feminine as possible, Solace wears the scars of a warrior's lifestyle openly. A multitude of old wounds stitch across her torso and back, from near-misses to the pink blotch of where a lightsaber impaled her shoulder a few years back. Each one is a reminder of a mistake she made in combat, and inspiration to train even harder, to never falter. That said, she does have a vain side, and the few times she took a blow to the face, she was incredibly insistent on having her sister heal the wounds before they scarred. It is one of the few things about her body(other than her womanly curves) that she cares about in a non-combat mindset. She even went through the trouble of acquiring cybernetic eyes to make herself look more human, the emerald lenses matching her personality quite well. While out and about, she tends to keep to more conservative dress and dulled colors, not for the lack of ability to interpret them, but because she simply dislikes the vibrancy that her sister loves so much. Her only exceptions are when she is looking to acquire all the wrong kinds of attention, choosing suitable attire to show herself off better and entering the local cantina to cause trouble. All the while she keeps the skin-tight black armourweave bodysuit underneath of course, because you never know when things are going to get rougher than planned.[/indent] [color=a187be][b]|[u] {Equipment and Personal Belongings} [/u]|[/b][/color] [indent]- Aphelion: A modification of her first lightsaber, Solace's Lightsaber-pike has seen intermittent use over the years since the Jedi Purge, and many modifications. The original lightsaber sits at the cap of a cortosis-weave staff, the components built into the custom housing and reinforced for more her more aggressive style of combat. Inside, enhancements to the emitter allow her to change the tuning of the blade through her connection with the force, giving her the ability to vary the sharpness or length at will to a degree. The crystal itself is attuned to her and forms a veridian/green colored blade. - Perihelion: Not actually a single lightsaber, the pair of shoto blades Solace calls "Perihelion" were gifts to her from her former master, Zentraedies. At a blade length of just under a foot each, they are well suited to her particular style of Juyo/Vaapad, which relies on high mobility and close engagement ranges. Both sabers are a deep blue in color, as many traditional Jedi lightsabers were. - Solace's Jedi Armor: Like many of those who joined the Clone Wars and focused on a more battle-intensive role, Solace was provided a set of Clone Trooper armor to better protect herself. Though rarely used as a full set since, she still maintains it in case she has need of it, replacing worn out components as best she can. There are a few personalizations that have been made in the years, primarily the integration of a smaller guard-shoto lightsaber in the wrist of the right gauntlet, and an armourweave bodysuit as the underlayer. Finding it to be suitable protection by itself, she often wears the bodysuit underneath normal clothing. - Cybernetics: Despite being able to see quite clearly through the force, being Miraluka does have the downside of standing out in a crowd. To this end, Solace made a point of finding a willing cybernetic surgeon to provide her with a pair of disturbingly lifelike eyes. Able to simply insert them into her vestigial sockets, they link to a small adapter wired into her skull that lets them sync with her forcesight and act as normal eyes. While she can't actually "see" through them, she has become quite adept at pretending as if she can. - Assorted clothes: Among various items of clothing are her old Jedi robes, a few normal civilian outfits, as well as Imperial uniforms and some more cantina appropriate attire. - Blaster weapons: Along with her wonderful impression of a real human, and the clothes to blend in as a few different occupations, she also occasionally carries a pair of blaster pistols and blaster rifle. They are minimally personalized, serving primarily as costume though still very functional. - Sith Holocron: Given freely as a reward from a rather unsavory contact on Hutta, the relic was at first discarded as simply a strange shelf decoration. When it began whispering to her as she slept, Solace took an interest in it, and unlocking its secrets. Since opening it and discovering the identity of the former Sith who owned it, she has spent many nights talking to the holocron, learning of the Sith and their ways. - "Absolution": Originally a Consular-class cruiser, "Absolution" served as a diplomatic vessel for the Jedi Order for several decades before meeting its end in the early stages of the Clone Wars. It sat in a scrap yard for nearly eight years until Solace came across it, finding an opportunity in the slowly rusting hull and acquiring it for herself and her sister. Over the years they have found it to be questionably reliable, but always surprising them with one issue or another. The hull has been repainted several times, it now a stark gunmetal grey, and there are a few bumps where plates were welded haphazardly on in order to cover holes. While "Absolution" is not the fastest or most reliable ship, or even armed, it has served as a home for the sisters, and they do they best to do right by it.[/indent] [color=a187be][b]|[u] {Physical Abilities} [/u]|[/b][/color] [indent]- Battlemaster: Solace's primary skill is that of lightsaber combat, with a focus on duelling and offensive styles. Foremost is her own adaptation of Mace Windu's Vaapad, dealing in highly aggressive strikes and erratic form. Making use of her stature, she uses both her physical ability and limited force abilities to enhance her speed, to create a highly mobile form. In combat she will often make use of light glancing attacks, whittling down on her opponents especially if they are physically stronger than her. At its most basic, her form focuses on always being on the offensive, and trying to break her opponent first.[/indent] [color=a187be][b]|[u] {Force Abilities} [/u]|[/b][/color] [indent]- Buried Presence - Cloak of Shadow - Force Crush - Force Lightning - Spear of Midnight Black - Dun Moch[/indent] [color=a187be][b]|[u] {Limitations} [/u]|[/b][/color] [indent]- Burst Fighter: While Solace is at peak physical fitness, she is not built for battles of attrition. Her style of Vaapad is geared entirely towards breaking down and defeating her opponent first, leaving little room for defensive measures. In any prolonged fight she is forced to rely more on her aggression to sustain herself, which while it may be limitless, it is not a suitable replacement for stamina. To that end, if a fight is going wrong or taking too long, she is not at all afraid to disengage. - Limited Force Powers: Simply put, she knows few force powers and is only able to use the ones she knows sparingly. The basics such as telekinesis and the occasional mind trick are easy enough, but she has shown an incapability on that front as a whole when it comes to more advanced abilities. Only a few dark side powers have come naturally to her, and even then she doesn't rely on them, instead simply using them to augment her lightsaber combat.[/indent] [color=a187be][b]|[u] {Personality} [/u]|[/b][/color] [center][h3][u]♦ [color=a187be]Distant[/color] ♦ [color=a187be]Ruthless/Cunning[/color] ♦ [color=a187be]Protective[/color] ♦ [color=a187be]Paranoid[/color] ♦[/u][/h3][/center] [indent]Always the more distant of the two, Solace rarely expresses her true emotions to anyone except her sister. This leaves her hard to read on the surface, especially when taking into account her cybernetics. It has also caused a few trust issues between her and her potential employers, as a consequence of not just her personality, but also that some of her kind are in league with the Empire. She is not above using that to her advantage though, and is always seeking out weaknesses in everyone around her, whether they are her enemy or not. Part of that stems from being a survivor of the Jedi Purge, but most of it is simply down to her nature. Unlike Requiem, she finds it hard to trust anyone other than herself and her sister, believing that with the right motive anyone will betray their own people. She proves that time and time again when she uses her charms and "assets" to sway the weak-minded to her side, only to eventually dispose of them. Despite her rough and often violent personality, she has quite the soft-spot for her sister the bond between them stronger now than it had ever been in their youth. Solace has a deep, unshakeable love for her sister that she knows is a weakness in its own way, but would still do anything for her, no matter the cost to herself or others.[/indent] [/hider][hider=Requiem, The Beacon of Light][center][h1][color=a187be]Requiem[/color][/h1] [img]https://78.media.tumblr.com/d8db47d3ac26639a3ec03e7539a38204/tumblr_mf41dtJtay1rbbdkio2_500.gif[/img][/center] [color=a187be][b]|[u] {Full Name} [/u]|[/b][/color] [indent]Sena Alleron[/indent] [color=a187be][b]|[u] {Age} [/u]|[/b][/color] [indent]28[/indent] [color=a187be][b]|[u] {Gender} [/u]|[/b][/color] [indent]Female[/indent] [color=a187be][b]|[u] {Force Sensitive/Alignment} [/u]|[/b][/color] [indent]Yes - Light[/indent] [color=a187be][b]|[u] {Appearance} [/u]|[/b][/color] [indent]As to be expected from twins, Requiem shares most of the same physical features as her sister. Just like her, she is of a remarkably average height and build, though with the same distinctly womanly shape. Unlike Solace, she doesn't quite have the same lithe and toned physique, instead being a little "softer". To that end she seems to focus far more on keeping up appearances. Even the smallest blemish finds itself removed through force healing, her pale skin always perfectly smooth. While her sister finds endless amusement in teasing her over it, she always makes time out of the day to ensure nothing is out of place, obsessively hygenic to the point of paranoia. Much like Solace, she does have a vain side, though far more pronounced in her own way. She also acquired cybernetic eyes, though changes the colors of them about as often as the color of her own hair. It is a habit that she knows should be avoided, but with her love of vibrant colors, she can't stop herself from indulging. Because of that, it's relatively uncommon for her to sport a "normal" hair color, though often enough choosing such lovely shades like turquoise and hot pink. Clothing wise, it's all the same. Vibrant, often cheerful colors are the norm, and one would often think that perhaps she's compensating for the lack of any true visual ability, but she knows exactly what she's doing. Requiem will tend to gravitate towards anything cheerful or flowery, things that accentuate her naturally bubbly and youthful personality. She is also rather fond of keeping to Miralukan traditional garb, such as the veils and cloths over her face to cover her lack of eyes. Unlike Solace, she doesn't try to hide who she is, which tends to get her into more trouble than its worth.[/indent] [color=a187be][b]|[u] {Equipment and Personal Belongings} [/u]|[/b][/color] [indent]- Equilibrium: A personalized curved hilt crossguard lightsaber, this was her first and has remained near unchanged since the day she finished it. Other than being able to use either emitter as the primary blade, the only unique modification is the vibrant magenta color of the blade. - Requiem's Jedi Robes: Preferring them while on any kind of potential combat mission, the robes are the very same that she had when they left the order after the purge. A very normal drab brown, she actually doesn't like them that much in terms of fashion, but they allow her to use the full range of her force abilities unimpeded. - Assorted clothes: Unlike Solace who uses various outfits with her cybernetics to blend in and disguise herself, Requiem's ever growing collection is far more focused on what is and isn't fashionable. An entire room of their ship is devoted exclusively to her clothing, myriad dresses of colors ranging from somewhat normal to absolutely gaudy and everything in between, not to mention things that her sister has cautioned against wearing openly in public.[/indent] [color=a187be][b]|[u] {Physical Abilities} [/u]|[/b][/color] [indent]- Unarmed Combat: Requiem's physical strengths lie almost exclusively in defensive and unarmed combat, with little in ways of functional lightsaber capability. Her own form relies heavily on the Tutaminis power and using the force to augment herself and allies, throwing out barriers and using telekinesis extensively.[/indent] [color=a187be][b]|[u] {Force Abilities} [/u]|[/b][/color] [indent]- Force Healing - Shatterpoint - Animal Friendship - Battle Meditation - Force Barrier - Emerald Lightning - Tutaminis - Force Deflection - Stasis Field - Force Valor - Force Protection[/indent] [color=a187be][b]|[u] {Limitations} [/u]|[/b][/color] [indent]- Lightsaber combat: To put it bluntly, she's lucky she knows which end is the business end. Requiem was never skilled with the more physical aspects, barely able to hold her own against fellow padawans in the academy, and only ever able to keep a defense up. About her only saving grace is her force abilities, and she's lucky for it.[/indent] [color=a187be][b]|[u] {Personality} [/u]|[/b][/color] [center][h3][u]♦ [color=a187be]Compassionate/Empathetic[/color] ♦ [color=a187be]Naive[/color] ♦ [color=a187be]Energetic/Bubbly[/color] ♦[/u][/h3][/center] [indent]As with most things with the twins, Requiem stands as a stark contrast to her sister in personality most of all. Immediately the most vibrant person in the room, her smile is almost infectious and she always seeks to be the beacon of joy for whatever crowd she is in. Very little is able to bring her spirits down, as she can always find the silver-lining, and she has a certain knack for lifting people up when they are feeling the weight of the world. This primarily comes from her natural affinity towards understanding the emotions of those around her, able to read their auras and relating to them on a personal level. She also has a near boundless well of energy to draw from, almost always bounding from one place to another with a youthful vigor. Unfortunately, she is incredibly naive despite that. Requiem tends to think with her heart first, always reading the surface and going with whatever she is presented with first. This tends to get her into trouble [i][b]often[/b][/i] as she can be far too trusting with people she has just met. More than once Solace has had to intervene on her behalf, and give a stern telling off to someone looking to take advantage. Unfortunately, to call her daft would be a bit too generous at times. With all her natural force abilities, and the studying she has done to hone them, she's still a bit stupid.[/indent] [/hider][hider=Backstory/Shared traits][color=a187be][b]|[u] {Shared Force Abilities} [/u]|[/b][/color] [indent]- Art of Movement - Breath Control - Center of Being - Force Speed - Enhanced Force Sight: Unlike others of their kind, both sisters can also interpret colors. - Force Telekinesis - Mind Trick(Solace's is less effective than her sister's) - Force Bond: Formed at an early age, the twins always had a connection to each other that was rooted deeply in the force. At first a detriment in ways, requiring them to be physically close to one another or they would start suffering emotional or physical distress, it has been honed into something else entirely. With the help of the Jedi, they were able to lessen their dependence on one another, while strengthening their bond so that they would always know where the other was. No sister can ever be lost to the other, able to see through the force to always find her other half, and they can share feelings and thoughts without even being in proximity. It does still come with significant downsides however, as the force has always been known as a superb conductor of trauma, and the bond communicates it well. Whatever suffering one sister feels, the other will as well, as if she was there with her, and their former master held many reservations about allowing it to remain fully intact. While they have yet to encounter such a scenario, Zentraedies counseled strongly against forming lasting bonds with others, for the emotional damage that a loss could have on them both.[/indent] [color=a187be][b]|[u] {Place of Origin} [/u]|[/b][/color] [indent]Like most Miraluka, both sisters were born on Alpheridies and spent the first six years of their lives among their own kind. During those years they were nigh-inseparable, always close by each other and forming the bond that would stay with them up until adulthood. Of course, like all of their people, they found an early tutelage with the Luka Sene, beginning their journey into the force and shaping their lives around it. When the Jedi came to Alpheridies they found the twins already proficient in the Force and brought them both into the order. Once there, they adopted new names and left their true ones behind in everything except their private lives.[/indent] [color=a187be][b]|[u] {Background} [/u]|[/b][/color] [indent]Rarely enough were siblings inducted into the Jedi, much less at the same time and even then they were kept apart so as to ensure their bonds would not become troublesome. For Solace and Requiem however, it was clear the moment they were separated that neither they nor the order would benefit from keeping them apart. The initial few weeks were rough for this, as the sisters were at first uncooperative with the masters, then as time progressed they began to take ill. Only when they were reunited again was the correlation noticed. For Miraluka, being connected with the force was expected, and many of them were known to have a sensitivity towards events in the force. The sisters however, had more than just an emotional connection with each other, they were bonded through the force and their desire to remain close reflected through it. With no small amount of concern, the Jedi chose to continue their training as padawans, assigning them both to another of their kind who had become a master of the order. Zentraedies took them both on eagerly, treating them as family and giving them a small piece of home that settled their minds through the bond of another Miralukan. For a few years the two sisters trained alongside each other, their individual skills coming to the fore. Requiem, though always hesitant and finding difficulty in overcoming her own lack of confidence, had a natural affinity with the manipulation of the force itself. Telekinetics and healing powers were her gift, able to outclass even her master and some within the medical corps. Such was her connection with the Living Force, that she could heal wounds normally thought to be mortal. Solace on the other hand, embraced the more physical of their training. While her sister delved into numerous holocrons and records, she focused on varied styles of lightsaber combat and keeping herself in peak physical fitness. Her prowess rapidly eclipsed Zentraedies' ability to teach her, finding it harder and harder to keep even ground against her in his old age. While the sisters advanced in the Jedi Order, they also learned of their bond in the force. When they had first arrived, it had forced them to remain close together or their health and well-being would suffer for it. Zentraedies taught them that while together it could give them strength, that it did not have to control their lives, that eventually they would have to part ways for one reason or another. Through long-term studies and practice, he gradually helped them solidify their bond, much to the disapproval of the council for encouraging such relations. Despite that, it was clear that he had done the right thing, as through the force the sisters could remain close even while across great distances. Eventually it came time for both sisters to take on the Jedi Trials. Though at the time they were still young, and only been with the order for less than half the time one normally would for such an undertaking, the ongoing conflict in the galaxy and danger of the Sith had prompted the council to looking towards their more gifted padawans. Solace was first on their list, having studied under the more notable blademasters of the order, including a very brief and pointed lesson from Master Windu, and had been recognized for her natural ability. Her trial came early in 20BBY, facing off against the academy's instructors in single combat and finding swift victory each time. It was clear to the council however, that as she fought she increasingly relied on her aggression, shifting from the more defensive forms and into her own adaptation of Vaapad quite rapidly. More concerning though, was her final combat against a simulation of the Sith Lord Ajunta Pall. Intended as a test of her defensive abilities, she surprised everyone when she immediately went on the offensive, striking rapidly at the simulacra. While at first the council thought she was merely keeping the false sith in a defensive posture, later review found that the grazing strikes were very purposeful. She had consistently struck to wound, spinning around her opponent and letting the very edge of her lightsaber bleed him of both his energy and will to fight. Eventually her opponent's defensive stance failed, and to the shock of the collected masters, she struck down holographic sith with a well-placed saber strike through the heart and into the emitter. The response was mixed to put it simply, with a few in favor of her elevation to Jedi Knight for the skills she had shown, while others were opposed to her remaining in the order following such a display. It ended up going to vote, where despite reservations, she was found worthy and her padawan braid cut to signify her advancement. While few in the order were pleased at the result, one in particular was nearly beside herself with joy, her sister. Embracing each other, the sisters seemed about to part as their master had predicted, when Requiem was also asked to see the council for her own trial. For once she met her test with confidence, emboldened by her sisters words of encouragement and the desire to remain by her side. Where her sister was tested on her skills with the lightsaber, she was to be tested in her mastery of the force itself, faced with several challenges of increasing difficulty. First she was asked to solve an ancient holopuzzle, the individual pieces small and with very little in terms of space between them. Any mistake of movement or placement would reset the entire puzzle, which proved disheartening initially as each one compounded on one another. She was undeterred though, and shut off her mind to any distraction, calming herself and focusing only on each piece at a time. Despite feeling like an eternity, she had solved it in mere moments, to the approval of all on the council who observed. Next she was tested on not just her proficiency, but also her compassion and understanding of the code. She left the Jedi Temple for the Galactic City Medical Center, where a number of wounded had arrived requiring specialist care. Among them were not just Republic citizens, but also captured Separatists in the security wards. Not even thinking of the ongoing war, she went among each of those in need, healing the worst of their wounds and moving to the next without even waiting for their thanks. For hours she tended to them, providing the same care and kindness to Separatist and Republic alike. When she had finally returned to the Jedi Temple, the council asked why she had chosen to heal those who had declared themselves their enemies. She simply replied that it was the right thing to do, and that no one should suffer. Both sisters had now become Jedi Knights, though still young and with much to learn. They took to the battles of the Clone Wars, boarding a CR70 corvette and shipping out to the fringes. It was there that they felt the first ripples of the Jedi Purge, a sudden shadow tainting the force in their meditations. Sensing something was very wrong, they took an opportunity to slip away from their clone detachments while at a Republic station, only barely avoiding the order that almost saw them dead in their sleep. Despite not knowing why, they knew that they were now enemies of the Republic and needed answers. Both sisters tried every contact they could, both masters and fellow knights in the field, and the temple itself. All was silent, except for Zentraedies. In agreement with the Luka Sene and Jedi Order, he regularly returned to the homeworld to tutor young Miralukan every decade, and it was there on Alpheridies that they found him. Even cut off from the galaxy by The Veil, the normally calm and serene atmosphere of their home had felt tense immediately upon arrival. So many force-sensitive people had been so suddenly cut down in violence, their deaths echoing across the force in those more connected to it. Some were simply in shock, unable to process the reverberations in the force, others distraught by the closing shadows. Many felt that it was inevitable they were next, and Zentraedies was one of them. He took the sisters in, explaining what he could even as he packed his few belongings and urged them to do the same. Only a few of the Order had been able to escape the purge, but all of them explained the suddenness of the clone troopers turning on them, and the silence of the Jedi Temple. Only later did they discover it had been destroyed, and all inside dead. With their home destroyed, and Alpheridies likely next, the sisters took the advice of their master, leaving for the Outer Rim and trying to keep a low profile. For a while it was rough, as Miraluka were rather hard to miss, especially while carrying lightsabers. Each year brought its own hardships, constantly moving from planet to planet doing odd jobs to earn credits, all while trying to avoid the Empire. Eventually they were able to acquire a ship, though it was largely by Solace's doing and Requiem thought it best not to ask specifics. It was rather run down, but spacious enough to serve as a mobile home for them, as long as they kept it floating. Their ship afforded them not just a rent-free home and way to move between planets, but also a way to make a few credits of their own. At first they just ran cargo, finding enough difficulty in getting people to trust them, but as time went on they re-established contact with some of those who escaped Order 66 and started helping the survivors escape the notice of the Empire. It didn't make much in the way of credits, but it let them build a small network of connections, and would eventually land them contact with others who opposed the Empire. That came with rather unfortunate consequences however, as while they could now afford to keep their ship in better than "just running" condition, and even a few personal things for themselves, there was increased danger in their work. Solace had the cunning to acquire cybernetics to disguise her heritage, making her more ideal for riskier insertions, and it was one of which where the sisters found all the trouble they didn't want. While working an extraction for a Senator opposed to the Empire, the sisters had made a stop on an Imperial world that was a frequent stop for officers on leave. Tired of being left on the ship on such worlds, Requiem had borrowed her sister's spare cybernetic eyes and departed the spaceport for the local cantina. Very much the opposite of Solace, she soon became uncomfortable with the occasional lecherous glance her way, until deciding to leave just as soon as she had arrived. Unfortunately for her, an officer had take notice and chosen that moment to make his move. Following behind with a couple of his staff in tow, the man called to her several times outside the cantina, trying to convince her at first, and then becoming more and more confrontational. Just when things were about to get physical between them, the officer was suddenly struck down with force-lightning, killing him where he stood and scorching a few of his staff. Solace had come back early from her job, the senator standing behind her in stunned silence. Without even waiting for the alarms, she moved both the senator and her sister back to the ship, taking off without permission and dodging the fleet in orbit just barely. Despite the success of the mission, she had been seen and identified as a former Jedi Knight, her appearance displayed on the holonet as one of the Empire's most wanted. Her cover had been blown, and the growing opposition to the Empire distanced itself from her, not yet wanting to draw that kind of attention to themselves. For seven years the sisters once more kept a low profile, doing only odd jobs and staying in the Outer Rim and Hutt Space where Imperial control was weakest. It is there, at port on a midway station along the hyperlanes that they quietly stock up on fuel and essentials, all while looking towards their next destination...[/indent][/hider][/hider]
