After the war, most of what the Empire had as far as military and financial assets had nearly been destroyed on the planet of Belderone. The Empire along with the Dark Council agreed in order for them to hold a strong grip on their recently conquered systems, a strong military presence was needed in the Belderone System. So assets and Imperial citizens and military contractors were sent out to the system to begin construction on the newly planned out Belderone Outpost. The site that had been designated for the Outpost was surrounded in the nearby jungle and after several weeks of clearing it out, the construction began.
Several Imperial workers had just came on to the third shift to continue the construction of the Outpost just as daylight was giving into nighttime. Several Imperial Stormtroopers were checking the badges and data cards of each and every citizen as they passed through the checkout point. Rumours were flying about that the 7th Imperial Fleet was en route with not only more supplies but with more construction equipment. The timetable for the completion of the Belderone Outpost was at weeks behind schedule due to several work related injuries then an outbreak of a flu like virus the workers and military personal dubbed The Belderone Death March. Several workers had died from the virus but the Imperial doctors had at last found a cure.
As the citizens began moving through the gate, the ground began to shake and tremble all around them. Everyone, workers and military personal alike, stopped what they were doing and looked toward the heavy thick foliage of the jungles. Suddenly, a bellowing roar erupted from the jungles followed by several massive figures stepping from the cover of the jungle. A citizen raised his hand and pointed at the figures just as they emerged into full view of the floodlights.
"Rancors! That one single word erupted from the lips that sounded like a chorus of frightened singers. The Imperials were caught off guard as the Rancors charged toward them....
The next day, several workers and military were missing..the Outpost was nearly in ruins...and on the ground were several large footprints made by some large predator.
((( O.C.C. When you guys/girls get to the planet or whatever I'll NPC the Rancors in more detail. Just wanted to give you somewhat of a starting pointe and background history. )))
