Empress Kaltani Anasaye has had enough. Recent years have seen rebellions, coups, and civil war. She has been poisoned, her husband murdered. Although her crown and her children appear safe—for now—the Empress will not wait for the next threat to come to her. Odan-Urr swore itself to her service and now Sunrider will find and destroy her enemies.

The Royal Guard has no record of Commodore Arcturus leaving the system long enough to train in the ways of the Force, yet somehow he attacked the palace wielding a crimson lightsaber and strong in the Dark Side. How?

Quaestor Archenksova has dispatched Sunrider to Kiast’s frozen moon of Kaerls to investigate and secure the system’s only source of Kyber crystals and the moon’s guardians, the Okami Mandalorians. If Arcturus built his weapon within Vatali space, he must have come here.

However, you have been entrusted with an even more serious mission. Every Force-user in the Empire is in Odan-Urr. If Arcturus honed his powers during his time among the Dominion, only an Odanite could have trained him. You are to keep a close eye on your own colleagues; there may be a traitor on Kaerls.

There are two ways to earn points.

Participation will be awarded based on the bin system used in vendettas. Every competition belongs to one of four bins: Fiction/Lore, Graphics, Gaming, and Puzzles. The first time you participate in a given bin, you get participation points. If you participate in all four bins, you get bonus points as well.

Placement points will be given to the top five finishers in each competition. The total pool of available placement points is based on the number of participation points, so the more people participate, the more placement is worth. The placement points will first be split between competitions (see each comp write-up for details), and then among the top five finishers:

First place: 34%
Second place: 26%
Third place: 20%
Fourth place: 13%
Fifth place: 7%

If a competition receives fewer than five entries, the leftover placement points will be evenly distributed among the participants. Tie scores will be broken in favor of the member who earned the greater number of crescents from the child competitions.
