Dawn of Defiance Campaign Episode 9 Released Posted By JF on May 11, 2009
The penultimate adventure in the Dawn of Defiance Campaign is now available as a free download (along with the previous 8) on Wizards of the Coast's website.
Sword of the Empire is written by John Jackson Miller, who is well-known for his work on the Knights of the Old Republic comics series (and co-author of the RPG supplement). Here is a summary of the adventure:
Sword of the Empire is the ninth adventure in the Dawn of Defiance campaign, which will take heroes from 1st level all the way through 20th level in a continuous storyline designed to give both players and Gamemasters a complete Star Wars Roleplaying Game Saga Edition experience. In this adventure, the heroes take their hunt for Master Denia to Prakith, an Imperial military stronghold and home to the headquarters of the Emperor’s Jedi hunters. Over the course of this adventure, the heroes will see how the Empire is quickly reshaping Prakith and will rediscover an ancient race whose support against the Empire can be gained—if only they can be made to understand the threat. Sword of the Empire is the penultimate chapter in the Dawn of Defiance campaign, and the heroes should advance to 19th level by the end of the adventure.
