So, here's the deal. I have created a full-fleshed mission with all new, original characters. With the exception of a few (that I have had for quite some time now), they are really anyone's to discover. The mission takes place in a sort of alternate universe from that of the movies -- meaning no Canon-characters. Still, everything before approximately 200 BBY has indeed happened (but everything thereafter can not). I have "borrowed", in a sense, many of the characters from Jedi Temple Online, so that I could have a fleshed out Jedi Council and functional Jedi Temple. So, with out further ado, I will introduce those characters pertaining to the mission:
To begin, there will be a total of 12 characters.
Ardeth Evas, a chagrian Jedi Master and Long-term High Council Member. Master Evas is the master of Kavi Reyes; a Bith male wielding a blue blade. Ardeth Evas derives from the planet of Champala. He wields a lightstaff similar to that found in the Chagrian bio-pic on wookiepedia. He is a Jedi Sentinel, and coorespondingly weilds a yellow blade. He has mastered both Forms III and VI. The rest, is up for interpretation. Just keep in mind that he is a kind, compationate teacher, as well as a wise and powerful Jedi Master.
A Toydarian Jedi Master named Brill, sitting on the Jedi High Council for his eighth year now. He is as court as a Jedi Master can be, and is generally in a mildly grumpy mood. He is Master to Aurelius Thurinos; a Falleen Padawan just shy of his Jedi Trials. Brill is a highly skilled Guardian; although his age has started to effect his speed. He practices Form IV and Form VII (Juyo), weilding a blue lightsaber.
That is all in terms of introductions of characters. Keep in mind that I will be playing several of my own characters; starting with Gossam High Council Member Lyle Zhet.

Mission Title: Search for the Lost Jedi
________________________________________________________
Setting:
The story begins at the Jedi Temple, located on Coruscant. After the mission debriefing, the three Jedi task-forces move to Balosar, Champala, or Tatooine. The story then moves once again back to the Jedi Temple, followed by modified task-forces moving back to Balosar, Champala, and Tatooine. As the missions progress, the teams travel back to the Jedi Temple for a second time to regroup before traveling a final time back to Balosar.
________________________________________________________
General Storyline:
Just 12 years ago, there was an attack on the Jedi Temple that led to the deaths of many Jedi Knights. After the incident, 2 Jedi High Council Members, along with 6 other Jedi Knights, left the temple enraged by how the incident was dealt with. Nothing more became of it until 4 years ago, when the Jedi High Council caught wind of Jedi attacks on civilians on Balosar, resulting in one of the Jedi being killed. After the dead Jedi was found to be one of the 8 fallen Jedi that had left, the Council felt that it was their duty to reprimand these Jedi Knights. So, over the 4 years that followed, the council found information of the group’s whereabouts, and decided that it had come to a time when they needed to take action.
Two such Council members, Ardeth Evas and Lyle Zhet, chose 9 Jedi from with in the temple to be separated into 3 different task-forces: each team traveling to Balosar, Champala, or Tatooine so that they could stake out as much information as possible on these Dark Jedi, and hopefully end their new found desire for bloodshed. So, the teams split; Master Evas took a team to Champala, Master Zhet traveled with his team to Tatooine, and Toydarian Jedi Master Brill took his former Padawan as well as his new apprentice to Balosar.
On Champala, Tu’ebb Abogado and his apprentice Raena Alder accompanied Master Evas and Padawan Kavi Reyes as Evas used his connections with in the Champala underground to look for his former Jedi friends.
Meanwhile, on Balosar, Jedi Master Brill had taken his apprentice Aurelius Thurinos and his former Padawan and good friend, Jedi Knight Kepporra to meet up with the Balosar Watchman, or rather woman, Vaya La’qul. The Council had felt that Master Brill and Kepporra had the right appearance and skills to handle the corrupt planet. So, as Kepporra and Master La’qul exhausted their contacts, Brill and his apprentice separated to follow a lead Brill had gotten from the Council.
Because the Dark Jedi were believed to be located right on Tatooine, Once Jedi Master Zhet, his former Padawan Kel Vih’Tor, the Knight’s apprentice Ieca Persephone, and Jedi Master Jon Ecole had arrived, they were told to stay low; waiting for a lead to jump out at them. Feeling useless, Masters Zhet and Ecole decided to venture into the heart of the Mos Eisley crime circuit, and ended up receiving a tip that could lead them directly to the Dark Jedi themselves – right there on Tatooine!
But, as the Jedi had gotten closer to finding the answers they needed, the fallen Jedi became more and more aware of their presence. So, the Dark Jedi hired not one, but two bounty hunters who were familiar with the Jedi ways to both seek and destroy the three task teams. One such hunter was a Ssi-Ruu Bounty Hunter who called himself Precut, who had previously worked for the Sith underground. The other was a Nosaurian assassin named Vasma Brintt (said to be the best one could find in all of the Mid Rim).
A nasty set of events ensued; leaving Jedi Masters Brill and Evas, Padawan Aurelius Thurinos, Jedi Knight Kepporra, and Ardeth Evas’s apprentice Kavi Reyes either believed to be or truly dead. After the attacks had blown over, what was left of both the Balosar and Champala task-forces made their way back to the Jedi Temple; assuming that those on Tatooine had been attacked, and possibly killed, as well.
But in reality, Master Zhet’s team was not only left scathe-free, but also completely unaware of the other attacks. Therefore, over the three days that followed, the four Jedi made their way to what they believed to be the lair of the fallen Jedi. Once they arrived, however, they found themselves ambushed by the bounty hunters. Luckily, neither team was truly left with an element of surprise, so after a gruesome battle the two hunters were slain. The four victorious Jedi fled to return to the Jedi Temple.
As the remaining Jedi regrouped, many found themselves injured, or truly shattered by the scale of losses. In the end, only Masters Ecole, La’qul, and Zhet, Jedi Knight Kel Vih’Tor, and his apprentice Ieca Persephone, could bare to tackle their foes for a second time.
So, bringing on Jedi High Council Member Rhik Tyel and Jedi Investigator Quom Exibil, the group once again split: Masters Ecole, Tyel, and Zhet set out for Tatooine to ultimately destroy the threat; Master La’qul traveled back to Balosar with Quom Exibil in hopes of locating her team; and Kel Vih’Tor, along with Ieca Persephone, traveled to Champala in hopes of finding, at the very least, the remains of Ardeth Evas and his apprentice.
Once back on Balosar, it was Quom Exibil who found the bodies of both Brill and his apprentice. But, as he and Master La’qul looked further, there were no signs of Kepporra being either dead or alive. Once again tapping into her vast amount of contacts, La’qul was still unable to resolve the mystery of Kepporra’s disappearance.
However, as Kel Vih’Tor and Ieca Persephone began their search on Champala, they found much more savory results. Though Kavi Reyes was gravely injured, both he and his master Ardeth Evas were still alive; having hid with in the city’s capitol. Delighted by their fortune, Vih’Tor and Persephone proceeded to tell the two survivors exactly what had happened, just as Master Evas exchanged all the information he had gathered on the band of Dark Jedi as he and his apprentice had been hiding. So, after shipping a disgruntled Persephone and Kavi Reyes back to the temple, Master Evas and Kel Vih’Tor traveled to Tatooine hoping that they could make it their in time to save Masters Tyel and Ecole from certain death.
As Master Evas and Kel Vih’Tor were traveling at light speed to the Mos Eisley Cantina, Rhik Tyel and his fellow Jedi Councilman Jon Ecole were making their way into an underground shuttle port that had been identified as one of the three places in which the Dark Jedi could be hiding on Tatooine. Luckily for both them and their Jedi saviours to be, it was the wrong hide out. Even luckier still, the hideout was instead a shuttle factory. So, taking one of the finished shuttles to the remaining location, Masters Tyel and Ecole arrived in a matter of minutes, carefully descending into the abandoned shuttle port before them.
Kel Vih’Tor and Ardeth Evas arrived a few minutes after the two Councilmen, and preceded quickly into what they believed would be the heat of battle. Instead, they found Ecole and Tyel alone, with out an enemy in sight.
Meanwhile, back on Balosar, Vaya La’qul and Quom Exibil had finally found Kepporra – dead. Vaya suffered yet another blow; as she was left the only surviving member of her initial task-force. Exibil, however, was determined to find the Dark Jedi, and so he convinced Master La’qul to use the last of her contacts on Balosar before returning to the Temple.
But, to both La’qul and Exibil’s surprise, the last of her contacts ended up giving her the whereabouts of what they believed to be an abandoned hideout of the Dark Jedi. So, the two protagonists made the decision to visit the old hideout in hopes of some answers. As they arrived, however, they got much more than they had bargained for. The Dark Jedi had set up an ambush, and by using Master La’qul’s contact, they were able to lure her and her partner into their trap. Though the two put up a fight, they were ultimately outnumbered and killed by the fallen heroes of some twelve years passed.
So, as Masters Ecole, Evas, Tyel, and Zhet along with Kel Vih’Tor made their way into what they were sure would be the Dark Jedi location, they found nothing but an empty port. Devastated, they made their way back to the Jedi Temple to await further instruction.
Yet, as two weeks passed, there was no sign of either La’qul or Exibil. The Council became anxious, and felt something was amiss. The task-forces seemed to agree, and decided that it was high-time to take action and locate their missing friends. Masters Ecole, Evas, Tyel, and Zhet, Jedi Knights Vih’Tor and Abogado, and their apprentices Ieca Persephone and Raena Alder all made their way to Balosar in hopes of not only finding La’qul and Exibil, but also the fallen Jedi themselves.
As they arrived, they heard talk of their friends’ deaths. However, if one good thing can come from a gossiping society, it is when these tall-tales are paired with cold, hard facts. Though they feared that their friends had indeed died, they also hoped that this supposed hideout was still occupied by the Dark Jedi Knights – and it just so happened that the fallen Jedi had not been thinking vary clearly in light of recent events. Basking in their supposed successes of killing off Masters Brill, Evas, and La’qul, Jedi Knights Kepporra and Exibil, as well as Brill’s apprentice Aurelius Thurinos and Evas’s Padawan Kavi Reyes, the Dark Jedi had forgotten to cover their tracks; thus leading the Jedi task-force consisting of a eight beings right into their sanctuary.
After being found, a bloody, terribly awful battle ensued, resulting in the deaths of six of the seven Dark Jedi, and the near-fatal injury of the other. Sadly, not all the fatalities were those desired: Jedi Master and Senior High Council Member Rhik Tyel was among those who perished during that final battle on Balosar.
Though the mission had technically been a success, not one Jedi left feeling victorious as they made their way back to the Jedi Temple. After the loss of seven wonderful Jedi souls, the mission left a blood stain on the history of the Jedi Temple. Proper funerals were held for all those who had died during the awful events, but all was not lost. For undergoing true emotional losses, all were given medals that would be held in Coruscant’s Great Hall, and Kavi Reyes was given a right of passage to being a true Jedi Knight. Also, a young Barabel Jedi Investigator named Niuk Goloc was, in Master Brill’s place, appointed to the Jedi High Council.
Still, there will not be a year that goes by where those gruesome seven months are not remembered. May the force rest will all those affected either directly, or otherwise.
