CARPE TENEBRAE

EPISODE II

RISE OF THE APPRENTICE

The Empire grows. The evil Sith Lord Emperor, Darth Sidious, plots to lure his wayward apprentice, Darth Vader, former Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker, back to the Imperial Palace to complete his Sith training and cement his allegiance to the Dark Side.

Darth Vader, reunited with his long thought dead wife, Senator Padmè Amidala, and his former Jedi Master, Obi-wan Kenobi, has assumed control of the once infamous Dromund Kaas, an ancient Sith Stronghold, buried deep in the forgotten sectors of the Outer-rim. Under the guidance of the Sith ghost Darth Malgus, a Warlord of the Old Republic, he and his new apprentice, Darth Syrennè, move to hunt down and capture the survivors of Order 66.

Senator Bail Organa, founder of the Alderaanian Resistance, has joined forces with the lawless Massassi Group in an effort to strike at the Galactic Empire with aspirations of reinstating the once peaceful Galactic Republic. With the help of two Jedi Knights, Ferus Olin and Caleb Dume, he searches the Galaxy for Jedi survivors, hoping to rally them into joining his cause.

Meanwhile, a handful of the Massassi mercenaries attack a remote space station on the outskirts of the Perlemian Trade Route, targeting the Imperial supply lines . . .
