Suddenly there was a lot to unpack and it would be clear that Ben was struggling to understand what exactly was asked of him. "You're asking me to break my word and-" he tried his best to prevent the cynic within him to come out and ruin the pleasant conversation they'd been having, fearful as...

Ben heard her words, although he didn't quite grasp the part about Light shining strongest, having no clue how the Force worked. "I'm not saying become crusaders," he corrected her with a soft smile, "I said become nomadic." "The only way the Sith managed to bring destruction on the galaxy...

For a moment, Ben hesitated. He didn't really have an answer. "Abandon your temples," he replied after a moment of thought. "The Ossein Fleets are filled with refugees or the descendents of refugees." he continued, but wasn't too sure where he was going with this as he cast his eyes upwards to...

Another oversimplification by the Jedi, Ben thought as he listened as she said her piece. "Always?" he asked her rhetorically and shook his head, "No, but did the Jedi not try to do the same thing on Kessel?" their failed attack on Kessel, thwarted by Preef Callo himself with the aid of the...

Ben was surprised by the revelation that the woman who looked over ten years his junior had been born in the time of his grandparents. It wasn't something he was going to dwell on for the sentiment was still true whether she was old enough to be his grandmother or the young thing he thought she...

Ben's first encounter with involuntary confinement was when he was just thirteen. Rhommamool's navy had decided that the Ossein scrappers weren't justified in scrapping a ship that hailed from the secretive heavily industrial planet and had swept all the individual scrappers up in tractor beams...

His shot was deflected like it was nothing, further enraging the pirate captain over the unfairness of a galaxy where Ossein drew the shortest straw. He wanted to shoot again, to kill the Jedi, but the torrent of wind made it harder to aim and then a voice popped up in his ear, "Ben, use the...

Ben and the crew of the Haradan were walking through what they had come to realize wasn't an abandoned ancient Jedi temple at all. All twenty of them were wary of danger and as such saw the Jedi (@Valen Pelora) before she rushed forwards. "Shoot her!" Ben cried, but as he did the air seemed to...

The Haradan was reluctant to fire at the Kowakian Devils and they in turn seemed to find reasons to avoid a direct confrontation with the other Ossein vessel as well. There was always another Sith or FWA fighter in between them. This didn't go unnoticed either and soon the Haradan received a...

The Haradan had been hunted by the FWA for years as it dashed between civilized space and the Outer Rim on orders of their new overlord, Darth Asminys. Raids on freighters were common and even a starliner with Coreworld tourists had been forced to pay a ransom to Ben's crew for them to be left...

Ben stopped abruptly when the Mandalorian in his funny armor decided to bark back instead of just doing a simple task that needed to be done before his own ship could get the go-ahead for departure. What the kriff did this low-level mercenary think he was? Preef -kriffing- Callo? The legendary...

What in the kriffing kark did these Mandalorians think they're doing? Ben couldn't remember the last time he heard dockworkers got Mandalorian escorts while going about their business. What's this, significant influx of budget so we just spend it on useless shit? Luckily, Ben knew a fair deal...

Ben looked at the Mando and then the Sector Ranger, then back at the mando. "Wait a minute," the old 'dockworder' frowned, "Since when we hire mandalorians instead of using Republic security?" It was a fair question, if only because it did strike him as a bit odd that outside help equated to...

Ben listened to the former ranger as his eyes gazed over the dockyard. He had hijacked dozens of these types of ships on the hyperlanes and they never carried a decent punch, neither the ships themselves or its personnel. Kriff, as long as the failed invasion hadn't heightened security, this...

Ben had been watching the folks loading the ship through a binocular with his right eye. It wasn't like he was blind in the left, mind you, but he just wanted to keep one eye on Lorcan. There were objections to be made for people who joined the Sith Order under idealistic pretense. Lorcan didn't...
