Well, this old guy walked up to me, and he looked like some sort of wino. Now, between the brandy and the spices, I've had some rough nights (and days), but I never came out lookin' like that. So this lazy bum wants me to hold this crystal for him. Can't he hold his own junk? Ok, fine, so I hold this thing, and off he goes. Now what am I supposed to do with this? Fine, so I pocket the thing, and the next day, these two other junkers come after me. So I tell 'em I'll give it to 'em, but they keep trying to hit me with sticks. Great. So of course, I had to set them on fire, just to prove a point. Then I went back to their place and set their friends on fire. And I found a map to some village. I figure somebody there will pay me something to take this thing back, since everybody seems to want it so much, so I head that way. And I get there, after traveling through this nasty swampy planet with some sort of putrid green sky, and what do I find? EVERYBODY THERE HAS ONE!!! Talk about a con job. Not only that, but this place is a mess. Then they told me that if I'd listen to their time-share presentation, they'd make me a Jedi. Honestly. A time-share in this day and age.

The story continues (ok, we all know how this works, but this is my Smuggler rendition...)

So, after the old guy gives me that crystal to hold, I head back inside for a nap (went to work). I wake up and see I've got a load of spice to deliver (yes, I do get an order once in awhile). I gather everything up, jump on my swoop and head to the Shuttleport in a nearby city (player city).

I catch the shuttle to my delivery point (another player city) and there's these two guys running up to me. Says they heard an old man gave me a crystal and they want it. I said, "Now listen. When I say I'm goona deliver something, I deliver it. I say I'm gonna keep something for someone, you getter believe I'm gonna keep it for 'em. If you want it, come get it."

So they say "O..." and that's all of "Ok" they get out as I beat 'em down.

Checking the bodies, I find this datapad with some coordinates on it. "This must be important. They must be really stupid if they can't keep just one place's coordinates in mind." I say as it proceeds to start smoking and I drop it to the ground. "I bet that old man would pay extra to know where these guys come from."

So, I head off to the coordinates and find a camp with three more goons. They must know who I am, as they attack immediately, and again it's not long before they are laid out. Searching them, I found another datapad with more coords (on Dathomir of all places, I hate that place), which also self-destructs. "Amatures."

So I head on over to Dathomir and head for the location the coordinates indicate. As I approach, "Wierd weather we're having here. All this mist all of a sudden. I don't remember that before." I clear the mist and there's this whole Village in there!

I speed into the Village, spot an old guy in the middle, and go have a chat. He tells me their Village was attacked by Sith of all people! "That's hogwash, there are no Sith" I say. He replies that these aren't real Sith, just sick devotees to that ancient religion. But they're really ticked off about something and practically destroyed their Village. Well, if it's one thing I hate is people picking on innocent weaker people. It's a flaw I have. So, I tell him I might be able to help if they come back.

He sends me to their Captain, and he sends me off on some patrols to help guard the Village. Says when I complete them, some other guy will teach me to shoot better. Well, I'm no slouch with a pistol, so we'll see what this guy can teach me. I head off on patrol...

That's where I am now. I don't suppose I'll keep the story running (we all know what it's all about by now), unless there's some interest...
