You were once a Jedi, a very talented one at that. Your skills with the force and the lightsaber were praised by your instructors...that is when they weren't scolding you for being vain and greedy. As you grew older you became more and more irritated with the lifestyle of the Jedi and realized it was impossible for you to follow, so you escaped from the Jedi Order. After that, you came into contact with a Sith Lord who offered to teach you the ways of the Dark Side of the force, you accepted, believing that being a Sith would give you limitless freedom...but again like the Jedi the Sith had a ridiculous lifestyle that you loathed. Things like love, compassion, or mercy were looked down upon by the Sith who opted to instead act like stereotypical card carrying villains. When you were still with the Jedi Order you almost didn't believe how cliche the Sith were and just believed that the Jedi were exaggerating...oh how wrong you were. However, you endured the absurdity of the Sith lifestyle to learn certain skills from your master, who you later killed with a thermal detonator when he slept.
Now you live your life how you want to, with no ancient and absurd doctrine dictating your every move. But now, something may threaten your lifestyle. You have sensed an incredibly powerful Sith in the Galaxy, a man who you discovered was called Darth Tyranus. Normally this wouldn't be a problem, you'd just avoid him but the problem is that Tyranus is the leader of the Confederacy of Independent Systems and may very well change the face of the galaxy. You liked the way things are now, the Republic is corrupt and incompetent which allows you to steal easily, and the Jedi are too full of themselves and foolish to catch you. Tyranus was up to something, and you wanted to put a stop to it.
You learned that apparently Tyranus had ordered the death of some senator from Naboo who was an outspoken critic of the Military Creation Act, you didn't really care much for Republic politics but you did your best to ensure the Senator survived. You discovered a bomb had been placed in a landing pad where the Senator's shuttle would have landed and passed this information on to the authorities who quickly disarmed the bomb and foiled the assassination attempt but you knew this assassin would try again. You grabbed your speeder bike and waited outside the Senator's apartment. Sure enough, a droid went to the Senator's window and deposited what looked like kouhuns inside the Senator's room. You sped towards the Senator to save her but were surprised to see Jedi barging into the room, one of the Jedi killed the bugs while another spoofed the droid and was about to jump to catch it before it went back to its owner. You didn't need Jedi interfering with your plan so you force pushed this meddlesome jedi back into the room and followed the droid alone.
After a few minutes you soon discovered the droid's owner, a female in a purple bodysuit. She quickly spots you and grabs a sniper rifle from her speeder and fires a few shots at you, you easily deflected her blasts and one of them even destroyed her droid. The assassin was clearly panicking now, she put her rifle back into her speeder and drives off. You give chase, you had to know who she was and what she knew. The assassin pulls out her blaster pistol and begins firing at you, you easily deflect her shots and began closing in on her. You could sense her fear growing, but you didn't need the force to know that. Her driving became erratic and she began firing faster and with less accuracy. You realized that if you kept this up she would crash and probably wind up dead, you slowed down a little while deflecting more of her shots. The assassin then dove and turned sharply to the left and out of sight. But you still sensed her and followed her without being seen, you could sense the assassin was calming down, she probably thought she had eluded you. You kept your distance from the assassin's speeder and then saw her land, the assassin stepped out and removed the veil from her face and then entered what looked like a night club. You land your speeder bike close to the club and enter, despite the large crowd you easily sensed your prey and closed in. You saw the assassin at the bar picking up a shot with shaky hands and quickly gulping it.
She then turned around to see you standing right behind her, her eyes widened and her mouth opened as if she were silently screaming. She reached for her blaster but you used the force to take it from her and then flung her across the room, she hit the wall with a loud thud and laid on the floor unconscious. You see the other bar patrons staring at you, you had to think of something quickly. You could claim you're a Jedi, after all these idiots probably couldn't tell the difference between a Sith and a Jedi.
"Don't worry, this is jedi business." You pick up the injured assassin with no trouble from the bar patrons who were either too scared to oppose you or bought your lie. You carry the assassin to a back alley and lay her against a wall, she was still out cold and you took this time to examine her body. You noticed that she was barefoot and only wore toe rings and an anklet on her feet. You examined the jewelry pieces and found symbols on them, symbols you recognized as Mabari symbols. This woman was a Mabari warrior, she may be of some use to you.
You needed to wake her up to interrogate her, you pull out some smelling salts from your bag and put them under her nose. She begins to stir, and her eyes open but she begins groaning in pain.
"Good you're awake. What do they call you?"
She looked at you with fear but she answered your question. "Zam...Zam Wesell..."
"Nice name, now Zam let's get down to business. Do you know who it was you were trying to kill?" You begin the interrogation immediately.
She grunts but begins answer. "It was the senator from Naboo."
"And who hired you?" You wanted to confirm your suspicions.
"It was just a job..." She winced and moaned in pain.
You rolled your eyes, her wounds weren't even that bad. "Here, this will help with the pain." You placed your hand on her chest and used the force to dull the pain in Zam's body and also start to hypnotize her. Zam's breathing became shallower and her eyes became glazed.
"Now, tell me who hired you."
"It...it was a bounty hunt-"
You sensed something. "Hold that thought." You immediately use the force to stop a projectile from hitting Zam's neck. Zam looked in shock and awe, you looked up to see an armored figure staring at you before flying off. You examined the dart but then placed it in your sack for study or later use.
"You were saying?" You looked back at Zam.
"Uh...it was a bounty hunter called Jango Fett that hired me."
"A bounty hunter hired you to kill a senator?" This didn't seem right.
"He sub-contracted me...but I guess the person who really wanted to kill the senator was-"
"Tyranus."
"How did you..."
"Not important, do you know why he wanted the senator dead? She's a critic of the Military Creation Act and I doubt Tyranus wants the Republic to have an army to threaten his Confederacy."
"I don't know...I'm just a bounty hunter, I don't care too much about politics."
You sighed, Zam didn't know much but she may still be useful to you. Now what were you to do now?
