Imperial Research Station DX-01-5J.
Hidden away in the Outer Rim...Far from prying eyes, far from known trade routes... DX-01 or the "Xenomutatis project" as it is known within ISB circles is one of many of the Empire's well kept secrets.
DX-01's "research" is strictly confidential and known only to a select few including the Emperor himself. It's projects? Experimentation in Gene Manipulation akin to the Clone Trooper project. Trying to (painfully) extract certain gene's and abilities from non-human sentients.
ISB Special Projects division ruled this radical new weapon could be a major boon in the ongoing civil war. Project "Xenomutatis" found support in favour of Rom Mohc's proposition for the Dark Trooper project. However not all branches of Imperial Authority are as confident in the projects succes.
Imperial Intelligence being one of those divisions opposing the project. Seeing in General Mohc's Dark Trooper project a more "pure" approach, away from relying on non-humans. One of their Cypher Agents is tasked with a rather specific task: see project Xenomutatis fail...
Enter our Player Characters:
<Insert name>, a female Wookie Warrior/Healer and escaped survivor of project Xenomutatis. She has sworn an Oath to bring down the DX-01 facility with all of its staff, wel except one...
<Insert name>, a promising Imperial Pilot turned smuggler after finding out that his "special assignment" indirectly send innocent non-humans to their painful deaths. Coming into contact with an escaped Wookie during a routine cargo drop he became a liability to the project and as such escaped with his new found ally.
<Insert name>, a wealthy noble with some juristiction over minor Imperial Shipping and assets Transport.He Turned a blind eye to some dubious cargo heading for a quite uninteresting planet somewhere in the Outer Rim, after 2 ISB agents asked "politely" and with a load of Credit to back up their charm. However...someone knows and isn't making his life of luxury any easier for it...
<Insert name>, a "malfunctioning" Black Sun Sparring Droid who took "challanging" to the next level and in the process "mutilated" the son of one of the Black Sun's underbosses, lets say he will not pass on the heritage... With the Black Sun on his heels he took up the life of a bounty hunter to hopefully find a mark up to the challange.
The politico is blackmailed into doing the job, the smuggler talked into the job as a way to bring down his former commander, the Wookie is in it for exactly the same reason, bring down the Xenomutatis project and the droid? Well...he can use some protection pissing off Black Sun.
The story gives characters the chance to either betray their employer or their mysterious benifactor (II agent) either way they are heading for some new obligations or worsening old ones.
Ps: I didnt have the character names on me so thats why they are left out.
