Hot spots of activity attributed to AMS - a serum meant to combat Force sensitives by creating super soldiers - have been reported across the galaxy for months. Although many had thought the problem was solved, that theory has quickly been proven false.
A recent surge in activity has left thousands in Nar Shaddaa’s most impoverished zones as victims of a new wave of crazed creatures. Infecting all manner of species, those who have escaped the carnage have reported watching men, women, and children alike torn to shreds by the bloodthirsty monsters.
It’s unclear where precisely this new surge sprang from but rumors have begun to abound. Some claim there is a secret lab underground while others claim that the creatures have simply inhabited burrows under the city and now infest a wide range of tunnels with numbers in the millions. Others still claim that the new release of the pathogen could only be explained by an intentional release in the undercity, though the reasons are as yet a mystery. The truth may lie somewhere in the middle.
One thing is for certain - if these monsters aren’t neutralized or contained soon, it threatens to eclipse the entirety of the planet.
Coruscant
“Welcome to the Coruscant Holo Net, I’m Emil Travak reporting live from the second district,” The voice trembled as sirens could be heard in the background, “We have breaking news coming that there has been a massive explosion at the Sector Ranger’s Headquarters building. Hundreds are feared to be dead and it’s unknown whether the Chief is among casualties.”Emil paused for a moment, glancing behind him as flames could be seen in the distance, along with thick plumes of smoke. Speeders rushed to the scene, “It’s unclear what has caused the attack, and for now it appears to have been a massive explosion to take down the entire building in one fell swoop.”
Dathomir
Those experienced spacers who have traveled along the Hydian Way year after year have always told stories of a sing-song melody that occasionally calls to those who would fly that path alone. Rumours of a forgotten world of witches and magic have begun to resurface, and those who can hear the voice of the Force sense something dark calling to them.
The bravest of adventurers have dared follow the call, traveling to the planet’s surface only to vanish without a trace. The first of these disappearances were attributed merely to stray asteroids or faulty star charts that led to a chance accident, but as more souls have disappeared, people are beginning to have trouble denying that something nefarious stirs on the half-forgotten world of Dathomir.
