STORYTELLER
Coruscant, Imperial High Command Regional Headquarters
Thirty minutes before the PROJECT EFFIGY trials
THIS THREAD IS DEATH DISABLED
The thunderous march of imperial troops over the surface of the landing platform made for quite an ceremonious welcome. Two columns moved with precision born of years of careful training. Parallel to one another they came to a stop on either side of the main causeway that split the VIP landing platform in half. They stopped, turned, brought their weapons up to their chests, and stood at attention. White armor shone in the artificial light that beat down on them from above. The clouds had grown thicker over Coruscant since the Sith took over.
Standing between both of the columns, a half dozen paces back to avoid seeming too eager, Colonel Hakke rolled his chin and shoulders, not daring to lift his hand to his collar to make himself more comfortable. Hands clasped firmly behind his back, the Imperial Legion's Research Director was the picture of the standard efficacy that the Empire demanded. His red hair was clipped short on his head, and only the thin remnants of a mustache remained beneath his lip. He gave a sharp salute when you, the VIPs stepped off of their transport.
"Welcome to Coruscant! Colonel Emile Hakke, Director of the Legion's Research Programs." He greeted and introduced himself in the same breath. You have a moment to take in your surroundings.
The Colonel is immaculate in his dress and manner. There is a little bit of rose to his cheeks, but that is pretty normal for someone who has spent much of his day barking orders at subordinates.
The Imperial Troopers flanking you seem to be some of the finest trained men in the legion, several of them have military honors emblazoned on their armor. Not a one shifts his or her weight in your presence.
The Base strikes you as down right creepy, large, black, with the red banners of the sith hanging off to either side of the entrance. The whole facility seems to be designed just as much as a castle as one would design a military base.
