The Castle Moon Saga
Over a millennia ago a MantiCorp executive named Nihilengallia Leth began a grand design for the greatest castle ever seen, to be built on the moon of the secretly discovered Leth. An artificial intelligence codenamed "Archetype" was left to construct Nihilengallia's castle over the span of a decade. However, whether corruption or otherwise, the Archetype continued to construct, long past the original boundaries. Nihilengallia's people tried to stop it, but were lethally silenced. Her colonists slain, the location of Leth and its moon were lost to time. Time went on, and the legion of droids continued to construct the castle, eventually covering the entire moon in a stone castle of varying architecture. Programming forbidding the Archetype to finish constructing, the A.I. seeks to begin construction on other planets. With Nihilengallia's ships long cannibalized for parts, the droids construct a communications relay to attract outsiders to the Castle Moon of Leth.
A Mandalorian patrol from Rodia is the first to arrive, and docks at the Cloister of Leggodt. A Sith ship and Jedi ship arrive soon after, conflict in the skies erupting as the mortal enemies clash, resulting in both ships crashing at the Creator's Cusp. However, the three parties soon learn the MantiCorp cybernetic inhabitants are not friendly, and will take the combined efforts of the Mandalorians, Jedi, and Sith to survive the planet. The single bait used by the Archetype has become the cry of the survivors:
"Save us."
The Castle Moon Saga is an event taking place on the Castle Moon of Leth (For more information on the moon, see here). At least starting off, the saga involves three threads, each of which will contain one member from each of the main factions. These survivors will be forced to work together to survive and complete objectives necessary for their lives and the security of the galaxy. Newer members will have priority in selection; additional threads may be created if the need arises. The threads are below.Over a millennia ago a MantiCorp executive named Nihilengallia Leth began a grand design for the greatest castle ever seen, to be built on the moon of the secretly discovered Leth.

The Mezzanine Mesa
The survivors were all lured to the Castle Moon of Leth by the Archetype's ominous distress beacon saying "Save us". However, the survivors realize that they aren't the only ones who could have received the signal. While military vessels from their organizations may be up to the task to thwart any theft of a ship such as is occurring at the Cloister of Leggodt, a civilian vessel may not fare as well. As such, a trio of survivors brave the Mezzanine Mesa to neutralize the signal (though the possibility of hijacking the signal for personal gain has crossed minds). Water damage caused by the adjacent canyon leaves the Mezzanine Mesa under constant maintenance, and thus a plethora of construction droids to be overcome.
Survivors' Objective
Neutralize the Archetype's signal.

The Cloister of Leggodt
When the Mandalorian warship arrived at the Castle Moon of Leth, the Archetype directed the Mandalorians to the Cloister of Leggodt, a dock named after the primary architect. Expecting friendlies, though never one above suspecting hostiles, the Mandalorians greeted the mechanical envoy, expecting organic visitors to arrive soon. Sensing the ambush, the Mandalorians decimated the envoy, though droid reinforcements were close behind. The second wave resulted in the damage to the engines. As the wave was demolished, a small team of Mandalorians (who eventually met up with the Jedi and Empire survivors) escaped the cloister. Those that remain have tried to fend off the MantiCorp droids. However, war of attrition favored the droids, and the Mandalorians were pushed back. As a Jedi and Sith follow one of the Mandalorian escapees back to the cloister (carrying spare parts from the Jedi and Sith wrecks to fix the Mandalorian engines), the droids begin their last assault on the bridge to take the ship. The trio must thwart the droids and prevent the menace from ever escaping the Castle Moon of Leth.
Survivors' Objective
Defeat the MantiCorp invaders assaulting the Mandalorian vessel.

The Dowager's Demesne
The Dowager's Demesne is the nerve center and heart of the MantiCorp operations on the Castle Moon, home to the Archetype's core. Unlike the typical stone architecture of the rest of the castle, the Demesne named in honor of Nihilengallia Leth is a primarily metal compound, a fortress in its own right. A frontal assault will result in the primary defenses. However, a trio braves the Demesne, hoping to sneak through the primary defenses and infiltrate the compound in hopes of fighting through to the core and shut down the Archetype once and for all.
Survivors' Objective
Fight to the center of the Dowager's Demesne and destroy the Archetype's core.
