Dawn of the Rebellion
Battle of the Reckoning
Battle of the Reckoning
For ten years, the Empire has stood without consequence. No one could stop their advance across the galaxy. The Galactic Alliance, the Mandalorians, the Chiss; all fell to the supremacy of the Sith Lords. Some, however, have attempted to stand up against the Empire. One of those individuals was Sisk Renelo. A symbol for the Mandalorians, he opposed the Empire and their tyrannical grip on Mandalorian space. For the actions of his people, the Sith Lords set fire to the Mandalorian sector, slaughtering everyone they could find - except for Sisk Renelo, captured and left to rot in an Imperial prison.
But the Mandalorians weren't the only ones to oppose the Empire. The Galactic Rebellion has been born, forged by dissidents who seek to overthrow the Empire. This rebellion consists of beings from all walks of life; Alliance, Jedi, Dark Jedi, ex-Imperials, civilians, and even Mandalorians survivors. The Rebellion is determined, but few. It requires all the allies it can get. Though Mandalorians have sworn vengeance against the Empire, they remain scattered. And while wary of Sisk Renelo, the Rebellion knows it needs a symbol to rally the remaining Mandalorian clans together.
With the help of defected Imperial High Marshall Konstantine Arkyadvich, the Rebellion now knows that the Empire is keeping Renelo aboard a prison known as the Reckoning, a space station located deep within the voice space of the Tingel Arm. The Rebellion has chosen to assault the Reckoning and free Sisk Renelo so he can be used as a symbol to unite all surviving Mandalorians to the Rebel cause. Even if Renelo cannot be rescued, assaulting the Reckoning is a victory in and of itself; anytime the Rebellion can expose a vulnerability within the Empire, it moves the Empire one step closer to defeat. The mission will not be easy, however. The Rebellion will need to infiltrate the heavily-fortified prison and find Renelo, and then fight their way back out against Imperial defenses.
The Battle of the Reckoning is primarily a Rebel operation, due to its in-universe status as a sneak attack. With the exception of Reckoning Warden Audroti, there will be no Imperial or Sith PCs in the battle. Audroti will command many NPC defenses. There will be two (2) Rebel PCs, who will have NPCs but much less than the Empire, as well as Sisk Renelo himself. If you are interested, please sign up with your Rebel character and we will choose the participants on Wednesday evening.
This is the dawn of the age of rebellion.
