This is meant as a place to gather all the reports of those who visited Greypost.This is for people to post updates and information on Greypost as they investigate it.

Sith Sarias and I split into two sections while Lord Kalkoran commanded both sides and generally investigated. At several points, the groups blended together. I can only tell the story from my side of it.
My section had Luvane, Nivalis, and Hozan with me. Approaching the village, a very strong force presence could be sensed from an area that we could later determine was from the "AG complex", a place built over a former oasis that used to be the basis of the town. The complex was relatively recently built over the oasis.
We travelled to the village in question and discovered Imperials attempting to repair a vehicle that had been shot with a rocket launcher from inside the village. They told us that things had been strange and there had been multiple disappearances. It is important to note that we never found this rocket launcher.
Approaching the village, it appeared empty, though life could be sensed inside. We stepped in to find it somewhat abandoned, and I went to open one of the doors and was accosted by citizens with blasters and weapons that began to fire upon me as I drew my lightsaber. The rest of the party engaged, discovering that they were very alive but also very much not in control of themselves, affected by a dark sided presence. We cut them down and I was sent with my party to clear other side buildings. Luvane prayed to the gods and was not fired at; uncertain whether or not this was because of his lack of aggression or not.
Throughout this, Luvane claimed to be contacted by the entity in the village and was in contact through it; at some points instructed to leave or stay, and generally conversing with it. Luvane is not currently answering what happened to any degree of lucidity but his testimony will be very important. The group could sense this entity in general throughout this excursion though it did not attack us; it also spoke to Haldeen and generally communicated with the party at points indirectly, but not in an unfriendly way.
My story is only half the story. I largely stuck to the side buildings and the medbay and tried to keep an eye on Luvane. We met up at various points and tried to search for an entry below a school. There was clearly something very wrong going on. All at once, the entity seemed to disappear, perhaps after finding what it was looking for with us.
Despite the entity following us and communicating with us, it was not aggressive to us. In fact, the villagers seemed to be only defensively aggressive.
Many others have been investigating this and will have more to write, as shall I as I remember it. Updates are to follow...

Building 1:
Three rooms within it. One had bloody handprints upon the wall despite it not having any footprints in the dust in the ground. The second had a doctor who was digging within the stomach of a Devaronian, muttering. I tried to engage him in conversation and he pulled a scalpel on me and was killed by Hozan. The next room had a crate of severed lips in it. Checking the Devaronian revealed more severed lips inside its chest cavity.
Building 2:
Not occupied by possessed villagers; however, it had a family of four, three of whom sat around the table while one was crawling towards the door, still burned.
Building 3:
Had an imperial captain with a gunshot wound to his head, self-inflicted, and a journal entry attached to him. Seemed to tell the story of building 2.
Medbay:
Had a single medical droid with its responses corrupted It appears to have been programmed for "plastic surgery" and was removing lips from villagers. Medical droid was destroyed. Informed the party that things had been very chaotic days earlier but it was now silent. The entity did not change when the faces were revealed of pureblooded people; however, the room grew colder when Nivalis removed his helmet.

Recovered:

• Multiple corpses including that of Dr Reilon, currently being autopsied
  
• Multiple blood samples
  
• Journal entries
  
• Corpses of family (burned)

One of the local kids reported something a little odd today. Her mother brought her in because she thought she must have hit her head, since the girl was reporting hallucinations. She said that she heard ‘somebody trying to speak from under the ground’. No sign of head trauma though. Oh well, kids act like that sometimes. I have better things to worry about with that strange group of researchers coming through. Gelt said he thought they were Reclamation Service, and those tosspots always get themselves injured cracking open one ruin or another, so I’ll have to clean them up. Don’t look much like Imperials though. Luckily we’ve had no attacks from, or even sightings of, the rebels lately, the less trouble from them the better. Maybe they moved on?

They came to me. No faces, no mouth to smile. Too many smiles. Too many mouths. That can’t be right, it doesn’t make sense. What is happening? I don’t
Hm. My clients won’t stop talking about the voices below the school. Maybe I’ll go see. Go listen. Listen. Listen. Listen. Listen. Listen. Listen… (after a while of this repeating the document corrupts, becoming an unreadable mass of data artefacts.)

"There have been a number of strange occurrences in Greypost these last few days. I would request additional reinforcement from the Imperial authorities but they tend to react harshly when communities like ours have issues that might undermine their precious efficiency. We still haven't caught the arsonist who burned down the Kelson's house. I still haven't been able to get that out of my head. They were all in there, but only one was screaming... Those new Imperials have requested access to the school, said something about wanting to investigate within. They don't act, or dress, much like any imperials I've met before, maybe they're IRS? Either way, their access codes checked out. They've been in there a few days now. Or was it a week? My head has been so foggy lately. If they ever leave the school they can help us with our rebel problem. Sure, they’ve not been attacking, say our garrison, but we’ve had a damn sight too many missing people for them not to be up to something.”
