He hadnt exactly walked into the mine empty handed so to speak. Before entering he had looked at the maps of the mines as well as the locations of the dead bodies found. However looking at a map and actually navigating the mines on your first try were to different things. The size alone could make you wander in the same tunnels for weeks.
Unlike his own voice Lapays was unassisted by the force or other means (as far as I know) so his voice came bouncing off the walls faintly. It was no longer a shout, more of a whisper repeating itself over and over. So good his opponent was here. It wasnt some wild goose chase and further more he was willing to meet him. Of course hearing the voice put him on edge, this was a Sith after all for all he knew the man he was after was directly behind him. Half expecting a strike to his body he braced himself but felt nothing.
Having nothing but the word of a Sith Xeonon pushed on further. Every shadow an enemy, every turn holding a new horror that will never materialize. Then it struck Xeonon, two can play at that game, looking at the wall he saw a large conduit, no doubt for the lighting. Taking his lightsaber he lashed out at the power supply taking out the lights for this area unaware that it was the force that allowed Lapay to see him. I hope you aren't afraid of the dark!
Of course for a normal person this would mean total darkness but not for Xeonon, snapping his blade back off he placed it back on his thigh and changed his cybernetics so that instead of normal vision he saw in forms of heat. The walls were blue from the cold, his body bright orange and his footsteps a redish pink. Everything just looked weird but it would hopefully help with his fears.
Finally after what seemed like an eternity (but was really a few minutes) he came to the junction Lapay had told him, the second shaft on the left. Walking down it he found this one to be different than the one before, instead of twists and turns it was straighter but leading down, much like a spiral. Every 20 meters or so a divulet cut into the wall were the tell tale signs of mining could be seen.

Having remained silent longer than the others the Imperial knights split up, the Aaragh going into the frontal assault and John walking into the group for the caves.

Dismounting alongside the others Finnick held back, and when the two pirates were taken out he knew it was time. No more goofing, no more fun. Now he had to work. Once again tightening his hair out of habit he submersed himself in the force, if the others did not want to use their blades then he too will be like those pansy form 0 users. Walking in the room right down the center he looked like he could actually belong there.

Listening to what the Admiral was saying many of the people who had survived all this looked around in confusion. Ordered to death? Executions. They had thought this was a more civilized Empire, but obviously not. There of course was no way to tell if this was a lie so all eyes were on the O'Neil the only one of the group who had remained stoic. His face unreadable as he weighed the chances. Here they were in the enemies grasp, where they very well could be killed at any moment. Was it worth the risk of tempting fate? Would they really have him killed if he returned?
Turning his head slightly to the left to look at those who had made it here alive. Against all odds they had survived the slaughter, the explosions. Everything. You have a deal Raising his hand he pointed directly at the man before him but eventually I will want an explanation.

Unless I am mistaken we are not Xenophobic and openly accept aliens. However there are still an awful amount of resentment towards them, old habits die hard and everything

Walking up to the body, Xeonon looked over the person. They had seen better days thats for sure, the clothes had been shredded the face torn to pieces on the right side so that the skull showed through. The back side of the body was in far better shape, a red cape on the back rested over the top of a chair and on the side were two different weapons. A normal blaster rifle and something a little more dangerous. Well Ill be damned... this had to be someone of importance Picking up the gun he looked at Lynda This is a type of Disruptor rifle, most were destroyed but a handful made it into Imperial hands. No wonder we dont see any other bodies.
Digging around a bit further he found a datapad but its battery was depleted, so he would have to hold onto it a little longer to find out what was going on here. Putting it in a pocket he also held onto the rifle, it may come in handy later. Upon that Xeonon didnt exactly look happy, he was having a bad time as of late with the darkside and fighting one did not sound appetizing at the moment. Whatever the rest of that message was it cant be good.

Alena Karso vs. Trull Ordo
Any weapons, any armour, any powers, Uni rules
Arena: Dantooine: Abandoned Jedi Enclave
Broken beams jut up from a collapsed building to the side. Glass and rubble litter the floors of the hallway. A steady rain plops down from the grey sky, unhurried fat drops of water slowly washing everything back to the dirt. Once, long ago, this place was a bastion of light in the galaxy. Now it is a gutted shell of it's former glory, the Jedi Enclave of Dantooine, a silent marker for the death of the Jedi.

Well I think I am going to be a jerk and keep you guys in suspense a little longer.
Congrats on both of you to making it this far that is a feat all in itself and both of you should be extremely proud of it. However here in the GBA we can only have one winner.
Now there were many good posts from both of you but there are a few things that stood out on both sides of the fence
Zalgo Now this isnt counted against you but it is generally common courtesy to state what weapons if any you have in your first post, like wise its usually better to let your opponent come in on their own. Saying that you can see them, if you are posting first is a nay nay. Everything was going good, your use of the Dun Moch is excellent all through the duel possibly some of the best I have read in the GBA. Now your way of dealing with the slugs from the shotgun is a bit off at that close of a distance with a solid force push they could easily be slowed down but due to the distance its not as easy to push them in another direction. Try a Force Barrier the next time. At such a distance the bullets would travel nearly instantaneous which brings me into my next point. It was just the way you wrote it
"As the gun barked, he turned..." now even with force speed this would have been a hard move to pull off, in the future when you are writing its better if you wrote something like "As the gun was about to go off" Or "As the gun was brought to bear..."
Now good move taking the gun out of play, and taking damage from the shrapnel was a good call on your part.
The duel progressed for a while excellently then near the end things started to deteriorate. From both parties. It is good to have some competitiveness in a duel, however there is a point where it just doesn't make the duel flow. You can feel it in the posts near the end were neither of you were willing to compromise, both of you felt what you did was correct and it really takes away from the duel itself.
Ashrah very nice duel, especially with all the gun work. The post cut near the start with the explosive round near the start was a very nice start to the duel. It seems like everyone wants to take your gun out of play and this time was no different and you took it in stride. The inner monolouge of not caring about the Dun Moch due to your force resistance was a nice touch. This is just a personal qualm and has no effect on it but would it kill you to say a few words in the duel? Break up the monotonous reading.
The winner of this duel is Ashrah ! You wrote a little bit better, seemed to dictate the pace of the duel. Now there is no way of knowing how this duel would have actually ended but going off of what was written thus far he gets it.
If there is any further questions or concerns feel free to PM me.

Xeonon walked through the mines of Arkania, he had been stalking the darksider known as Lapay. Once the Mandalorian threat to the galaxy had been defeated it was ripe picking for the Empire. An Empire that had gone relativly unscathed through the war it appeared better than the war torn Republic to millions of worlds. Many flocked to the Empire of their own accord after the war. That was why he was here now, the world of Arkania had told those in charge of a serious threat in the mines. As such the Empire sent their finest warrior, Xeonon "motherfucker" Solomon to kill the threat.
Walking deep beneath the planet in the mines Xeonon wore his Imperial Knight armour, red as the darkest blood the right side of his face was no longer flesh and bone but rather machine. On his back was the shield that he had forged himself, and his primary weapon mag locked on his right thigh. On either side of his chest were two very large pistols, each ready to take another life. On his right hand was the sigil ring of Dragus, made of dragite it had a peculiar ability to make the speaker sound louder, and make it sound as if the words were coming from within the persons mind. Laaapppppaaaayyyyy come out to playyyyyyy!

Being less cautious then his Jensarrai counterpart Xeonon rode right into the town stopping in front of a large adobe building. Now common knowledge would dictate that the largest building was the most important one, as such any news or any word of what had happened in here. Hopping off the speeder Xeonon walked into the large building the wooden door fell off the hinges as he pushed it in. The resounding bang no doubt alerted anyone or anything that was inside but there was nothing but the rush of dusty dead air. That and the stink of death, something had died in here. Looking over his shoulder at his blonde counter part he smiled What better way to learn about a person then exploring an abandoned house.
Walking in there was a lobby with a large semi circle desk on the opposite end, and a skeleton of a body in the chair. The building had obviously been the source of someones final stand the wall now behind Xeonon was pocked with dried blood and blaster marks. Sauntering on over to the body Xeonon wanted to check it out just as the call came over the comms about tunnels. Got a body on the North side. He really wasnt sure if his call came through the storm and general interference but hey a guy can try.

Lapay vs Xeonon
Condition is that you don't mind what I've got in my profile. (Top ten Weapons on profile)
Diamond Mines of Arkania
It was covered with tundra and rich in diamonds and other precious minerals, which the Arkanians mined to further their offworld connections and master their technology. Arkanian cities were designed to keep the cold out, and were mostly completely enclosed. Off-world visitors rarely had to deal with the frigid conditions of the planet. That however was not to be for the two duelists today, both for their own reasons had decided to go to the Diamond Mines, many of which led deep into the crusts of the world.

Tiro Saul vs. Alkor Centaris.
Run what ya brung.
Top 10 Force, Melee weapons, GBA standard rules.
Arena: The Chamber of Euphoria, in the former Villa Obscurum
The fourth level of the Tower of the Jen'jidai is the Chamber of Euphoria. Upon entering the chamber the pupil would be struck with a great sense of euphoria (hence the name).
But the euphoric state would not be the only sensation penetrating the mind, body and other senses of the pupil, as they would be walking into an alternative reality. If the character has ever known any true loss they might find themselves seated next to that person or persons, not only being able to see them but to physically touch them.
Their heart filled with so much joy and happiness and everything negative that happened to them would feel as if it never occurred. If the character ever wanted children, for instance, they might find themselves surrounded by children and a loving spouse. There is not a single problem or negative feeling to be had here in the Chamber of Euphoria. The torments of war, suffering, pain, death, loss, find no vacancy in the hearts of those who step through this level - but there is a lesson to be learned in all of this...

The run was relatively short in comparison to the other one minutes before. It was still hard but hey there is no other way to move in here. Eventually though they would come to a room that could hold a few hundred, dominated in the center by a large holo projector. Once all the recruits had sat down and the talking had stopped the disembodied voice of a woman could be heard. Welcome recruits, today we are going to talk about Korrina and their prey. Then on the screen it showed the picture of the average Korrina found on Dantooine around the time of Revan. Going around in a circle zooming in on its key points the voice spoke again. The Korrina was a pack hunter on the moon of Endor. Although not large, nor terribly dangerous on their own they used superior numbers and tactics to take down more dangerous animals on the planet. Next showed a group of Ewoks. Cute Cuddly Ewoks. Hardly the physically imposing animals, they were still able take down the 501stThe next scene was of the single wolf and a single Ewok armed with a spear, on its own the Ewok not only could keep the beast at bay but also kill it. However add in the rest of the back and the Ewok was unable to be everywhere at once. It was often taken down from the side it was not looking by one or more of the animals. Do you understand why I am showing you this?
