In which our heroes ...

They take us to the camp in the small village of Yavin. The council of
the rebel alliance includes Prince Kevenna, General Terrin, and a shaman
named Mystral.
Luckily the prince recognized Kyrik. The prince tells us of the Empire's
new weapon. We must destroy it before it becomes fully activated. Secondly,
the Lankani army is centrally controlled. We should be able to get several
spies into their command structure and send orders to make them attack
south. We need to escort the spies to the Lankani border.
But first, we must be inducted into the tribe. To get into the tribe,
we must pass the five tests of manhood. Even the pregnant woman.
The test of strength, the test of faith, the test of resiliance, the
test of the mind, the final test.
Newmoon starts by taking the test of resiliance (endurance). He must
walk down a path flanked by warriors and chanting shamen. The shamen do
him about oh, most of his hit points. Then the warriors start beating
on him. He survives with a couple of hit points left.
Next, brother elk takes the test of strength. He's not really so strong,
but makes a good try of it. He survives the first half just barely, and
has great troubles. He ties the fifth of six guys. But in the end, he
wins.
Next, Sand takes the test of faith. He debates the tribe's animists with
his faith in Neela. They fall before him.
Then, Gil begins the test of the mind. She talks about circles, artifacts,
and planes. They are defeated!
Finally, Kyrik himself takes the final challenge! He demonstrates his
prowess in:
- Mounted Combat
- Region Lore: Kulthea
- Adrenal Speed
- Spell Mastery: Will of the Warrior
- Two Handed Sword
- Horseback Riding
Yay! We are now part of the tribe.
The believe their new doomsday weapon is undergoing final tests about
ten miles from here. It's a large oddly shaped metal sphere. It floats
in the air just above the ground. A number of fighters must attack the
sphere, distracting it while we go inside and try to disable it. (It's
the size of a small keep.) At the center is supposedly some sort of power
source. It fires a beam of death that destroys all it touches.
As a crack suicide squad, we go to the pre-attack briefing. It's quite
predictable.

We set off for the battlestati....sphere. As we approach we see a bright
red sphere that glows with maelevolence. As we approach, some of the people
on the ground get vaporized by the great eye on one side.
We fly in to portal in from above. We find a small exhaust port just
below the main port and go in that way instead. there's some problems
with various phobia's but we manage eventually.
We discover an elevator shaft, but sadly we recognize these things not,
so get imperiled as the elevator car comes for us. We kill those riding
it, and then protal through it and travel down. We find a door that has
the words "restricted access".
We enter, and a hundred guys turn our way and start casting at us. There's
an eerie glow coming from the center of the vast room. We fight!
We manage to clear out the guards near the door of the room, but as our
eye adjust to the light we see the vast hordes beyond preparing to charge.
