Attached to the file would be a prerecorded holomessage that when selected would play. Trakaton's form would blaze to life in the classic display of a holographic transmission, the electric blue tinge accenting some features while diminishing others. Trakaton would be stood with his arms folded across his armoured chest, the cloak hanging loosely from his shoulders and the custom-fit plates of the armour looking as comfortable as an embrace. The scar on the right side of his face would be barely visible, his head ever so slightly turned to the right and he'd speak with a tone of authority:

"The Sith of our Empire have had access to the highest degrees of technology for millennia. Every cutting edge, every prototype better than the standard has first been passed through the hands of the Sith before reaching the military and even the civilians of the Empire beyond. Nowhere is this more true, than with the Imperial Fleet and the starships that take us from battle to battle against our most ancient of foes, the Jedi.
Newer iterations of starships are made standard as often as the Sith Empire can keep up with production. During the resource shortage years, such a fact saw the production of newer and more advanced versions of standard designs held back while current generation starships continued to be built using the low amount of resources that the Empire had at the time. Yet, since the war has resumed in earnest our Empire has clawed back from the brink of a economic collapse in no small part to Emperor Vowrawn, once the head of Production and Logistics. Now that the Empire is producing next generation starships at Dromund Kalakar Shipyards, it is time to 'acquire' what we can.
Contacts within the Dromund Kalakar Shipyards have reported the creation of a new Fury-Class Interceptor, with faster engines, a less fuel consuming hyperdrive and a greater reactor for power creation while still fitting into the same standards of previous Fury-Class Interceptors. One such prototype has been constructed by remnants of the Axiom Powerbase and has been transferred to the capital for trials, awaiting such in a jungle surrounded hanger far from Kaas City that I have the coordinates of.
Your objective is simple. Break into the Hanger controlled by the Axiom Powerbase and 'acquire' the Fury-Class Interceptor. Boarding the vessel will require the password from one of the terminals or guards in the Hanger, while unlocking the navigation controls will require a second security protocol passed that I am unaware of it's contents. Once the Navigation controls are unlocked, the ship is to be brought to Nez Peron for securing.
To those who see this operation complete, you will be rewarded proportional to your position in the Sith Empire.
An Imperial Soldier, will receive access to a single blaster or Vibroblade upgrade category of their choice alongside receiving a stipend of credits to do with as they wish.
An Acolyte, will receive a singular piece of armour to protect a body part of their choice that they will wear under their robes with my personal and public confirmation that I permit such. The Acolyte must approach me personally to receive such a reward.
Apprentices or Neophytes of the Horuset Powerbase, will have the choice of receiving a personal Imperial Assault Shuttle or receiving a reward of their own choosing.
Those who are beyond Apprentices, will receive a reward of their own choosing."

*With that the hologram would flicker and then fade from view. Leaving the viewer able to access the rest of the information provided.*

Location: Dromund Kaas - The Jungle Hanger of the Axiom Powerbase, deep within the trees with very little chance of reinforcement for either side.

((OOCly: I'd recommend using any spaceport ingame of your choice. It doesn't have to be the DK one, though beyond the spaceport access to a Sith Warrior or Sith Inquisitor hanger and then access to the inside of a Fury will be needed!))

---

Jungle Hanger: An old hanger from the Great Galactic War, the Axiom Powerbase has occupied the area as a go between for their operations within the Dromund system when transferring from Kalakar or Fels to Kaas. Guards have been reported with a garrison quarters capable of holding half a platoon and two personal rooms making it a well patrolled installation. While the Axiom Powerbase is a rival of the Horuset Powerbase, they are not traitors to the Empire and all moves against them must be done subtly.

---

Objectives: In this task there will be two primary objectives and one secondary objectives.

Primary Objective I: Recover the Fury-Class Interceptor and get it to Nez Peron.

Primary Objective II: Ensure that the Horuset Powerbase's involvement remains wholly unknown.

Secondary Objective I: Acquire blank transponder codes from within the Hanger's Control Room.

---

Time Frame: The team will have 21 days to acquire the Forge before the Fury-Class Interceptor is moved for trials.
((The 31st of July will be the deadline!))

---

Estimated Party Size: The recommendation of Lord Kalkoran is that a party size of four will be necessary to complete the objectives of this mission.

((Four means start planning when to set a date for the Operation at four people with a hard cap of absolutely no more than four. Please find a GM from within this number.))

OPERATION REPORT, HAYDEN F.:

We joined Apprentice Madros for the briefing near the shuttles. Sith Tarimra interrupted him to 'correct' the apprentice, but misheard something and was then corrected by Apprentice Madros. I asked if I could bring grenades, he said no, and when I said 'Aight, let's go steal a ship', he remarked I should stay quiet unless necessary for the mission.

We left and entered the grounds of the rival powerbase, taking an elevator to the hangar of the fury class, where Sith Tarimra suggested he 'was Sith Vexal', Apprentice Hozan his apprentice, and I were to be his bodyguard. When he asked if we had questions, I asked "Wouldn't it be weird for a Sith to have a bodyguard imperial?', but he told me it would be fine, and that I should mind my manners and tone. Then, Sith Tarimra approached two imperials, who informed us the hangar was off limits, whilst the other reached for her comms. Apprentice Hozan said "we're allowed to be here" which didn't work, the imperials just told him off and one told the other to call it in. Sith Tarimra again mentioned how they were allowed and by some miracle they actually believed it then, but it was already called in, and an ensign was on its way. Apprentice Hozan gestured to follow him, I asked Sith Tarimra who confirmed it, so I followed him. He then said something in sith which I assume was an insult by the way he said it. Then the Ensign showed up with 20 armed guards, which Apprentice Hozan saluted. Sith Tarimra came over and told the Ensign to disperse his men and that the situation was under control. Again, this worked, probably with some force magic or something, and the Ensign told his men to return to their normal patrols, but two stayed behind with him. Sith Tarimra then asked if he was the commanding officer, to which the ensign replied yes, stating the lieutenant was back at the estate, and asking for his name, due to the hangar being off limits. Sith Tarimra responded saying he and his apprentice had been ordered to secure the fury-class ship for the security of Axiom, with Apprentice Hozan stepping in, calling himself apprentice Zarmti and that they were looking for both his fury class ship and his former master, who was apparently a traitor to the powerbase. I couldn't really do anything, so I just stood there being handsome.
The Ensign then asked for their names so he could check on his datapad if they were in the register, but the two imperials looked at eachother and said that 'he wasn't a traitor five minutes ago', and were getting suspicious. Apprentice Hozan responded with 'maybe not in your view', then introduced Sith Tarimra as his master 'Sith Vexal'. Sith Tarimra then told the Ensign and guards that 'if he was not a traitor, we would not be here' and then commanded them to take us to the control room hangar. The Ensign again agreed, and led us to a room with various consoles where Apprentice Hozan then commanded them to give him the access codes and transponder codes. The soldiers were getting more suspicious by the moment, and the Ensign was confused, asking what he was supposed to do to Sith Tarimra. Apprentice Hozan once again told them to 'bring the sith to him' and tried to intimidate them, I then heard some weird voice in my head which I think was Sith Tarimra. The guards told Apprentice Hozan that the Sith they sought wasn't there, and the apprentice replied: "I can feel his presence, bring him here." Sith Tarimra told me via his mind that I was to look for the blanc transponder codes, which I then proceeded to do. The two imperials became startled as Apprentice Hozan got angry, and I went on to a communications terminal to check it out. Sith Tarimra too, was losing his temper now that his space magic wasn't working the way he wanted no more, and asked if there was anything on the ship, but the Ensign asked again what Sith Tarimra wanted him to do, to which the Sith replied: 'Answer my question, is there anything on board the ship?' To which Apprentice Hozan added: 'Who or what is aboard the fury?' and stepped to one of the guards which then clasped his torso and had trouble breathing for a little bit. He then ordered them to take him and his master (Sith Tarimra) onboard and hand over all relevant access codes, because, and I quote: "This Fury is mine now." Sith Tarimra asked me then if I had made any progress, to which I replied 'yes my lord', as I had turned off their communications and ability to call for back up, but I did not say so in front of the other imperials. The guards looked scared for Apprentice Hozan, and said the Ensign had the unlock codes and the transponder terminal was up the rampart. The Apprentice then told the Ensign to 'Get me everything', and continued with 'Blanc transponder codes, the security access and navigation access to 'my' fury'. As the apprentice kept yelling, the imperials in fear for life, told him the nav was on the ship but they didn't know how to unlock it. To which Sith Tarimra replied he would unlock it. Apprentice Hozan and Sith TArimra then talked amongst eachother for a bit after Apprentice Hozan told them to get 'everything else then'. The imperials followed orders and went to the transponder terminal along with Apprentice Hozan, as Sith Tarimra ordered the Ensign to hand over the codes to unlock the ship, which he did, a device with a single button. Apprentice Hozan in the meantime had taken the transponder codes, and when he returned, used his force to knock the device out of the Ensign's hand, stating: 'One button, seems sketchy'.The device's button was pushed hitting the ground, causing the ship to open and a ramp to be lowered. Apprentice Hozan then took the keys and headed for the ship, with Sith Tarimra and I in tow, along with the Ensign whom Sith Tarimra ordered to follow us. We headed to the ship and entered then.We found loads of crates and supplies, which Sith Tarimra inspected, along with myself. We found dog food and some bandages, which I was ordered to use to tie up the Ensign, by Sith Tarimra. I was then ordered to join Apprentice Hozan on the bridge, taking the tied up Ensign with me. Apprentice Hozan tried to unlock the nav computer, but it had an error and required a finger print, subsequently he tried to get the Ensign to do, which did not work and showed we only had two tries remaining, and he communicated via holo message: 'Fingerprint ID, can't get in'. Sith Tarimra later joined us on the bridge, where Apprentice Hozan told him we only had two more tries to unlock the fingerprint ID. For some reason, Sith Tarimra got really angry at the console, and then tried his own fingerprint, which obviously didn't work, showing another error message and saying we only had one try left. Apprentice Hozan left the chair and said we're not trying again until we are sure it'll work, then asked what was on board and how quickly he could kill it. Sith Tarimra said it was in the cargo bay, and that we should all go just in case. Apprentice Hozan opened the door and took his lightsaber in preparation, after which Sith Tarimra ordered him to open the door, which he had already done. I had taken my weapon and was ready for whatever creature was there, but knowing they could sense it, I was taking no chances, using Sith Tarimra as cover. Turns out it was a massive Tukata that went to charge Apprentice Hozan, who shot lightning from his fingertips to the creature and then assumed some martial arts stance. Sith Tarimra just sorta clawed his hand for some reason, but it did nothing but slow it down for a little while. The beast knocked back Apprentice Hozan, as his lightning didn't do anything, and continued attack him while I shot at it and hurt its stomach, but that didn't stop it from attacking either, just annoyed it. Apprentice Hozan was doing something in one of the rooms, I don't know what but he left Sith Tarimra and I to fight the creature by ourselves. Sith Tarimra tried to stab it, but it dodged, some of my shots seemed to hurt it again but it jumped back. At that time, Apprentice Hozan came out of the room and attacked the beast, jumping on it, right as Sith Tarimra shot his lightning and ordered me to kill it, so I started shooting continuously at it.
This thing was fast, it dodged Apprentice Hozan's attack and jumped at him, but it was deterred by Sith Tarimra's lightning, which hit Apprentice Hozan who was at that point located where the beast originally was. I managed to hurt it some more thanks to it staggerring due to the lightning, but it just kept going. It dashed back into a room, and Apprentice Hozan went into a different room, again leaving Sith Tarimra and I to fight the Tukata. Sith Tarimra continued the lightning, and I just kept shooting it without pause. This seemed to do the trick, as I killed it dead right there. Sith Tarimra thought it was still alive and sent Apprentice Hozan toward it, who used some super speed ability to cut off its paw. He then used that paw on the fingerprint scanner, which worked and allowed us to take the ship and fly out towards its intended destination using the autopilot. Sith Tarirma let Apprentice Hozan do it, stating 'Feel free to do the honours, Apprentice Hozan', to which he replied: "As you say."

This concludes my report, Lord Kalkoran. If you have any questions, please contact me.

Master,

[justify]Please find below the report of the mission designated ‘A Fury Like No Other’. Those attending were:

• [font=Courier New] Sith Tarimra, myself, leading the Operation
  
• [font=Courier New] Apprentice Eddi Hozan
  
• [font=Courier New] Apprentice Madros Dutrosu
  
• [font=Courier New] Private Frances Hayden

[justify][font=Courier New]Apprentice Dutrosu stayed outside of the hangar to watch our back; I operated under the identity of Sith Vexal, a member of the Axiom Powerbase sent to secure the Fury from ‘hostile elements’. Apprentice Hozan acted as Apprentice Zarmti, my 'Apprentice'; the Private as a bodyguard.

Objectives:

• [font=Courier New][justify] Primary Objective I: Completed
  
• [font=Courier New][justify] Primary Objective II: Completed
  
• [font=Courier New][justify] Secondary Objective I: Completed

[justify][font=Courier New]Mission Summary:
We arrived at the front room of the hanger easily; interacting briefly with two Imperials in the front room of the hangar, where I ended up using Affect Mind to convince them that we were permitted to enter and to summon their superior officer, an Ensign.

At this point, I noticed a Dark-Sided Presence in the building; a Sith of some kind was present. The superior officer of the aforementioned Imperials was an Ensign, who arrived with twenty Imperials in tow.

Eighteen of twenty were dispersed, returning to their normal patrols; we informed the Ensign that we were ordered to secure the Fury-class interceptor ‘for the security of the Axiom Powerbase’, and that the Sith presence I sensed was in fact Hozan’s (acting under the identity of Apprentice Zarmti) former Master, and a traitor to the Axiom Powerbase.

We were escorted into the control room, where I ordered the Private to find blank transponder codes as per Secondary Objective I; it was revealed that the Dark-Sided Presence on-board the Fury was not a Sith, but rather his personal belongings. We ‘convinced’ the ensign and his men to hand over blank transponder codes and the password to enter the Fury. The Imperials claimed they did not know how to unlock the navigation controls.

Escorted to the Fury by the Ensign, Apprentice Hozan, the Private, and I entered, binding the Ensign and departing for deeper into the Fury. I split off to the right, following the Dark-Sided Presence, while Apprentice Hozan and Private Hayden headed to the Bridge. There, I believe they tried to unlock the helm but were unsuccessful. As I headed down to the cargo bay, I heard soft growling coming from the cargo bay; I turned around and headed back to the bridge, where an attempt to unlock the helm via Electronic Manipulation was unsuccessful.

Thus, Apprentice Hozan, the Imperial, and I headed to the cargo bay, where we found the Presence to be a Tuk’ata. Confronting it, we drove it back and slew it with wrath and ruin, where Apprentice Hozan eventually cut off one of its paws, which was then used to unlock the navicomputer. It is likely the Apprentice postulated that the Sith to whom the Tuk’ata belonged was a Beastmaster; there is a certain security in unlocking one’s possessions with a thing one you yourself can control.

At this point, Nez Peron was input as the destination, and we departed. The Ensign we have bound up is in custody; he has been delivered to Nez Peron with the Fury. He has been filed within the Prisoner Records of the Horuset Archives.

Signed,
Sith Tarimra[/justify]
