Alright Splinter Cell fans, its time to don the EEV goggles,grab the combat knife and SC-20K rifle, because this RPis all about a stealthy assassination.

Sam Fisher would wish he had sith training by the end of this

RP.Enjoy.

Darth_Seer walks to the edge of a building neighbouring thatof the GRF HQ on Coruscant. he looks through a pair ofelectrobinoculars, surveying the layout before decidinghis next move..

Darth_Seer nods as he sees the patrolling guards pass by,he puts away the electrobinoculars and leaps down,

slowing his descent with the force, landing on a ledgenear an airvent access

Darth_Seer extends his hand toward the airvent motor,channeling darkside lightning at its electrical system,shorting it out before he crawls in past the now stillairvent rotor-blades

Darth_Seer makes his way through the airvent, followingits path toward the office section, he waits behind aventillation panel as he watches through the grate,waiting until the secretary leaves her office

Darth_Seer whispers from his hiding place, using the forceto add persuasion to his tone, altering her thoughts morethan actually speaking to her ~ you have worked far toohard.. you deserve a break, five minutes at least ~

~ the secretary stands and yawns, realising how tired shesuddenly feels "I've been working too hard, I deserve abreak, five minutes at least" she says, raising aneyebrow at her own thought, but shrugs and walks out ofthe office, turning off the light lights as she leaves

Darth_Seer silently opens the airvent grate, closing it ashe left it behind him. he moves to the still workingcomputer and transmits to the computer's hard drive, a

pre-made email, that includes information that when de-crypted, would suggest communications... betweensome unnamed GRF personnel and.. the Luminari

Darth_Seer invokes the concealment sith spell - the veil of

darkness - and moves invisibly out of the office, headingdown the hallway to a set of stairs, that he silently walksup, undetected by the cameras via his sith spell. hestops underneath the camera for the

Darth_Seer next doorway, hiding in its blindspot, as heopens the door and heads inside Darth_Seer continues down the corridor, still unseen in the

veil of darkness as a moves out of the way of a guardthat goes to investigate a door that seemed to openitself. The guard seeing no one around shrugs and puts itdown to someone not closing it properly and resumes his

patrol Darth_Seer moves carefully across the corridor, keeping to

oneside where the floor is still dry, the otherside is

slightly moist from a recent cleaning. still concealed bythe sith spell, he moves into a restroom, dispelling theconcealment technique as he opens an airvent grateand is about to climb into it, until he senses a guardapproaching. he telekinetically turns the lightswitch offand flicks the darkened lense on his mask, down,allowing his augmented left eye to see in the darknessas the guard gasps "wha.. who turned that light off?" hegets his weapon ready as he feels for the lightswitch..

Darth_Seer creeps up to the guard, easily seeing him andknocks him out with a judo-styled chop at the guard'sneck, k'tulan style and then drags the body into acubicle, hiding it there as he closes the door to it, beforeclimbing into the airvent, closing the grate behind him

Darth_Seer makes his way through the dark airventtunnel, not an easy feat for one with his 6'7" frame,complete with armour, but he manages. Fortunately, heopted to wear his infrared-immune armour, not as strongas conventional ablative plating but then this was acovert operation

~ a GRF officer watching the security systems notes oneguard not responding to his comm system and sees amotion sensor in one of the ventillation passages isactivated.. but for some reasons, thermal sensors don'tdetect anything. he puts it down to a mechanical failure

and has a technician sent down to that level toinvestigate

Darth_Seer makes his way through the air vent,telekinetically breaking the lightbulb that illuminates the

room, then crawls out of the air vent, not bothering toclose it. Darth_Seer moves towards the wall, glancing away from

the door as it opens, letting in vague light which to hisleft eye, is quite glaring. he telekinetically closes thedoor after the technician enters who looks about in thedark windering what just happened.. he reaches for thelightswitch only to find its not working as the bulb isbroken!

~ the technician fumbles for his flashlight only to be

grabbed from behind, his neck snapped in k'tulan style.he lets the body slumb to the floor and takes thetechnician's access card

::Item(s) Recieved -- Technician's access card::::Darkside points gained::

Darth_Seer concentrates deeply with the force, projectinghis physical senses outward, as if seeing from beyond hisbody.. he sends his projected sensory form out of theroom, through the walls to see the guards walking -while in his unseen and non-physical projected sensoryform, he watches their patrol pattern..

Darth_Seer ceases his concentration, ending the use of theproject senses technique. he shuts the dark lense on hismask, covering his nightvision enabled left eye, as heopens the door and quietly, walking out and invokes hisconcealment spell again, the veil of

Darth_Seer darkness.. all of this in timing with the guardspatrol placing them out of line of sight of the door, whichSeer closes in his now invisible form..unseen andunheard, he moves down the west corridor, heading foranother computer station section.

officer, grabbing him from behind, holding the blade tothe officer's throat, speaking in a whispered tone thatborders on a growl, he speaks

Darth_Seer : Don't bother reaching for your blaster, I'd rip you a new

one before you could get the trigger. Tell me what I want to know andlive..

GRF_Surveillance_Officer :what? who are you? Darth_Seer : I'm the one with a black metal short sword held to your

neck, so I'll ask the questions

GRF_Surveillance_Officer :oh man.. please don't killme, I'm not a guard..

Darth_Seer : How would I be able to shut down the droid guards onthe next level?

GRF_Surveillance_Officer :what? you can't, notwithout triggering an alarm

Darth_Seer : Alarms don't concern me GRF_Surveillance_Officer : They should, you'd have

every solider in the building after you, and a

battallion of S.O.A.R. officers are posted here!

GRF_Surveillance_Officer :I.. I guess you could justsend a command to the droids to shut down for

maintenance, but that only works for the regular

battle droids, you can't shut down the

droidekas, they have an automated repair system,but even that needs a technician's access card

Darth_Seer : Thank you, you've been most helpful. GRF_Surveillance_Officer :s-so.. you'll let me go? Darth_Seer grabs the officer by the shoulder, turning him

around and swiftly stabs him in the gut, in a decidelymandalorian style thrust "yes, you're free to go" hereplies as he effortlessly shakes the blood off the blade,which isn't hard with its teflon-like quality that causes it

::Darkside points gained::

Darth_Seer moves to the surveillance systems andtelekinetically types in the commands to erase all


5/10

camera footage, in the event that he was somehowspotted, he also deactivates all cameras that lead to thenext section he intends to visit

Darth_Seer takes the now dead surveillance officer's key-

card pass and uses it to access the computer system,that he transmits another set of fabricated emails - allencrypted but not heavily, to ensure they can easily bedecoded enough, to let anyone seeing them, to deducethat either the luminari conspired with corrupt GRFofficers to create a backdoor for a mandalorian toinfiltrate the building, or that the K'Tulans wished toframe the Luminari by sending in a Mandalorian trainedassassin - the messages do not leave enoughinformation to be certain..

::Item(s) Recieved -Surveillance Officer's key-card::

Darth_Seer takes out the technician's card and uses it toaccess the remote droid guard functions, doing as theofficer told him - he sends a command to the standardbattle droids to shut down for repairs and maintenance

::Journal Updated::

Darth_Seer takes a chair and moves it to jam the doorclosed from inside

Darth_Seer moves to the window, unlocking it and climbsoutside, standing on the thin ledge, he force leaps fromwhere he, up across the outer wall - the camerasdisabled, he is unseen...

Darth_Seer grabs a hold of a window ledge once hereaches the desired level, while he could telekinetically

open the window, he has to make this look like a non-sithwas involved and instead just smacks the glass openwith the back of his armoured glove and climbs inside

Darth_Seer notes the many still battle droids and a pair ofdroidekas that observe them curiously, try as they might,they cannot see Seer with their thermal sensors, but thesound of the window breaking gets their attention..


6/10

Darth_Seer sees the droidekas curl up into their wheelconfiguration and roll towards him..

Darth_Seer force leaps over them, choosing not to use hislightsaber to make this confrontation quicker as that

would destroy his cover.. Darth_Seer telekinetically grabs a vibro-knife from one ofthe disabled battle droids that he then hurls at the firstdroideka, guiding it with the force, with enough accuracyto rebound off the wall and into the side of the shieldeddroid's head, destroying its control system and renderingits memory useless since its damaged beyond repair..this he does to make it appear as if the attacker were

just highly skilled with aim, not a force user.. Darth_Seer prepares himself as the second droideka turns

around and heads straight toward Seer, halting beforehim, unfolding into its attack mode with blaster cannonsready "halt, cease and desist" the droid warns in anelectronic voice..

Darth_Seer raises his hands to feign surrender, only toreach forth with an onslaught of darkside lightning aimedfor the droideka.. this more or less disables the shieldand the droid. He only uses enough power to make theattack appear as a blast from an ion rifle

Darth_Seer sends forth a second lightning attack, aimeddirectly at the droid's servo-brain, destroying its memorytoo

GRF_Alexis_Praetor walks out of his office, blaster ready,he has been somewhat peturbed by the noises he'sheard "what in Coruscant? why are the droidsdeactivated!?" he turns to Seer and fires a well aimedshot...

Darth_Seer ducks down, avoiding this blaster bolt, whichwould have no doubt hit a lesser opponent, such is theaim of the Fleet Admiral. Seer concludes that if he hadsent anyone else, they would have fallen to the Admiral'sdeadly aim

GRF_Alexis_Praetor fires a shot at the disabled droideka'spowerpack, causing it to explode behind the sith

Darth_Seer moves with night-marishly fast, force aided

reflexes, dashing away from the mild explosion, thatwould have otherwise taken another being down..

GRF_Alexis_Praetor hits the alarm button on his uniformcommlink, alerting the S.O.A.R. battalion and pretty

much everyone in the building.. and makes his wayaround the corner where the sith dived Darth_Seer lies on the floor, feigning being knocked out

from the blast.. GRF_Alexis_Praetor steadies the blaster aimed right at the

sith's torso and decides not to risk the chance that hemay be alive and fires

Darth_Seer goes to roll out of the way of the shot, but istaken by this admiral's aim again, at this range, heemploys his only defence and uses his hand to block the

bolt, absorbing its searing heat and power from it as thebolt hits the armoured glove, not harming it as Seer usesthe force to transfer the power of the blaster bolt into hisown being before any damage can occur

GRF_Alexis_Praetor fires again as the S.O.A.R. battllionmake their way to the Fleet Admiral's floor

Darth_Seer now closer to being on his feet, he has room tomove and swiftly steps to his right, side-stepping awayfrom the attack as his left hand moves to the Admiral's

blaster arm, holding the weapon's aim away from him..his other arm crooks into an elbow attack to the

Admiral's jaw, the rage of the darkside aiding his speed GRF_Alexis_Praetor being a seasoned war veteran, such an

attack is normally one he could have avoided, but acombination of age and being faced with a true sith lord,makes him the weaker opponent in this battle.. while hemanages to squeeze off another two rounds, they missas his arm is held at bay, while he goes down

Darth_Seer draws his black, alchemically augmentedwakizashi blade, and thrusts it into Praetor's gut, instandard Mandalorian execution style, then reaches forthe Admiral's neck, snapping it in a uniquely K'Tulantechnique.. having no time left before the S.O.A.R arrive,he takes the Admiral's keycard and runs for the window,force leaping out into the night.. he lands grasping onto

a ledge of a neighbouring building as the S.O.A.R.soliders burst into the area, seeing the now slain Admiral"medical emergency!"

::Journal Updated::::Item(s) Recieved -

Fleet Admiral's key-card::::Darkside points gained::

Darth_Seer sheathes his wakizashi, holding onto the ledgewith one hand, he now uses his free hand to aid with hisshimmy across the ledge, hoisting himself up, he forceleaps from his position to the building's roof and runs tothe roof access doorway, he would have enjoyed battling

the S.O.A.R. he even found the Admiral a worthyopponent if a brief one, for a non-force sensitiveopponent, he fought well..

Darth_Seer invokes his concealment spell once again,vanishing in a "veil of darkness" as S.O.A.R. soliderssurvery the scene, some reactivate the battle droids andturn on the outdoor search lights, some glance acrossSeer but to no avail, the lights pass through hisconcealed, invisible form, which walks casually andsilently down the fire escape stairs of the neighbouringbuilding

Darth_Seer dispels his sith spell once well away from thebuilding and the murder scene in general, he enters hisship and sends an encrypted transmission, using theFleet Admiral's keycard, to place a very, very largedeposit of credits into both the K'tulan and Luminarileader's bank accounts, anyone investigating the murderwould not be able to trace the transmission back to hislocation as it was too highly encrypted, but would be

able to locate the presence of the Admiral's accountbeing used to make deposit

Darth_Seer pilots the ship away and decides to use thisunique opportunity to remotely access the Admiral'sdatabase via the holonet, using the keycard's clearancecode. He ensures he is not detected by scrambling hisown carrier signal and also making the access a brief

one.. among the files he downloads, his curiousity ispiqued by some very interesting files called "AdvancedForce Operatives.."

::Journal Updated::

Darth_Seer pilots his ship away from Coruscant and headsinto hyperspace, reading the copied files at his leisure"so.. Admiral Praetor was considering a training programto take force sensitives and apply military training alongwith rudimentry force skill training.."

Darth_Seer decides he must speak to Morbius of thismatter, such a program should not end since it could beturned into a potent weapon against the jedi..

Later, this report is filed to Acting Chancellor David Thundercraft:

"Sir, in the wake of the sudden death of the Fleet Admiral, I have been

able to make some progress in the way of an investigation. Whoever did

this, had help. We've recovered encrypted messages from a number of

computers, that were well hidden but we found them. From what we can

see from the fragments of messages, whoever the insiders are, they did

what they needed to be hidden.

We can't identify the traitors, but we have found portents of messages

that clearly link the K'tulans and Luminari and an unnamed mandalorian.

Based on forensic evidence, of the infiltration and attacks, theassassin must have been equipped with body armour, some kind of

nightvision, an ion cannon, level 13 unarmed combat training in the use

of throwing weapons, K'tulan unarmed combat - we found at least two

necks that were snapped in ways no human could achieve - some

mandalorian execution methods and possibly a stealth field generator,

unless the assassin was either extremely well trained in infiltration,

suggesting an Anzati, a Defel or even a former Echani.

Whats not clear, is whether the Luminari worked with the K'tulans to

provide a mandalorian assassin, or if the K'tulans have tried to frame

the Luminari or vice versa.

We have canceled the Admiral's code clearance as we found his ownaccount was virtually depleted in an encrypted transaction that sent

vast amounts of credits to both the Luminari and K'tulans.

Whoever is behind this, we'll do all we can to find out the truth.

Right now, we have no clue how far this conspiracy goes or what

possible motivation was behind this.

One curious thing we found was that in all stabbings, no metal traces

were found, as if the blade was made to repel blood. Possibly a new

type of mandalorian ore.."
