KASHKYYYK

Trandoshan hunters often come to Kashyyyk in and around Life Day to hunt Wookiees! As Mandalorians, you find this to be cowardly! Track down any Trandoshan hunters in the area and kill them out of respect for the Wookiees and the glory of Mandalore!

Happy Life day! A holiday that originated with and is celebrated by Wookiees on Kashyyyk and has become a renowned holiday all across the galaxy. At least, except for the Sith. The Empire removed any hope of ever allowing that celebration eons ago. Excluding them, Life Day is celebrated by so many species and races and cultures. Although Mandalorians respect the Wookiees for the strength of their warriors, they don't technically celebrate Life Day itself. At least in the way they do.
Life Day is a sacred day to Wookiees, in which they celebrate the diverse ecosystems of Kashyyyk, mourn those who have died, and celebrate the lives of the young ones in their families. They consider it their duty to return to Kashyyyk on Life Day where they chew the root of the orga plant and journey to the Life Tree. They also reinforced any life debts they had to their so-called “honor families” during the holiday. Those who celebrate the holiday often decorate wroshyr trees as a symbol of the day. Life Day was most important when Wookiees were in mass enslavement across the galaxy, as it was a means of connecting to their history even when forced to be away from home.
Today Corrine Eldar was travelling to Kashyyyk with her own family. Well technically they weren't related as other cultures might label them. Corrine and Vax were both of the same clan. As blood was not a factor in how families were put together in Mandalorian culture, they might as well be siblings. But if Vax tried to call her his sister she'd give him a smack on his head. Corrine, who liked to be called Cory, always considered herself "one of the boys" and she made sure anyone she associated with knew it.
They landed late last night just a day before the festivities began. Several other races came to enjoy the celebration as well, not all of them good. Trandoshan hunters were the cause of Corrine's current mission. They liked to set up in the forests around the main city of Rowrakruk and snatch them while they were unprepared. Its for this very reason Corrine and her partner were getting up early that morning, before the Tree-drum music began to fill the air, to go hunting.
As always, Corrine was dressed in her armored Beskar'gam. Given to her after her father's passing, she colored the iron skin red in honor of her family. It hadn't come close to fitting her at the time, and she had to modify it heavily to fit her frame. But now it was just as much a part of her as her own skin. Making sure to stay safe herself, on either hip she wore "Strill" blaster pistols and on her back a "Shriek-hawk" Blaster Rifle. Once her artillery had been checked and readied, she slid her T-visor over her head and knocked on the adjacent door to see if Vax was ready.
