Prompt: War has been declared. Proconsul Appius Wight has made Taldryan's intentions to take Port Kasiya known after Governor Yorinobu attempted to undermine and damage Taldryan from the inside with Clawdite Infiltrators. The OSI, along with the Ember Swarm, have labelled three individual targets that are of the utmost importance to Yorinobu and must be destroyed. You are to pick one. Confront them, and eliminate them.

Your targets are,

Zaesti Takeda (Yorinobu's Daughter) - Zaesti - EQ2 level, long black hair, black sub-knee length dress. She has some force abilities, but is more skilled in torture, information extraction, and interrogation. The Force Mystics have foreseen a terrible threat to the Clan if she is not dealt with. She leads Yorinobu's information division, having coordinated the Clawdite attack on Ostara and creation of the virus that plagued the Taldryan Network. Zaesti can be found at the Arasaka Mansion in Eastbrook, under the protection of a moderate sized mercenary force and extensive security defense system.

Rumi Crane (Deckers' Gang Leader) - Rumi - EQ3 level. The OSI have identified her as the one responsible for uniting the last two gangs against Taldryan, eliminate her, and their resistance will topple. She is a larger than life character, hair fashioned into a bright red mohawk. Scars and tattoos adorn her arms, marks that she is incredibly proud of. Rumi can be found deep within the derelict Nebulon-B frigate husk that is mostly buried underwater in the heart of the Vista Del Rey district, which serves as the main headquarters of the Decker’s Gang. Expect strong resistance, stealth is advised.

Adam S. Masher (Arasaka Military Commander) - Adam - EL1 level, he is extremely dangerous, do not approach unless absolutely necessary. He has an exosuit that is controlled through two different droid AIs via mechu-deru, and they operate nine unique tendrils of extendable length from his back on their own volition while linked to Adam's mind. So if he misses an opening, or opportunity, be it from a mind trick, anything, the two droid AIs can see through it and still respond appropriately. He prefers echani style martial arts combat to lightsaber combat, but when faced against a lightsaber he will defer to the latter. Adam can be found just inside the City Center entrance from the Holmes-CC Bridge, coordinating the military assault against the Military Prefecture and the other districts in-person. OSI also reports that attempts by force users to engage him have failed due to an unusually strong force suppression field, thought to be created by no fewer than 4 Shadow-disciplined force disciples working in tandem with each other. Advisement is to find and eliminate them first before engaging Adam. Should you come across him and are not prepared, or do not feel confident in eliminating him, use all means necessary to escape.

Rules: in 500 words or more, write a fiction centred around your main or alt character eliminating one of these targets. How you choose to do this is up to you.
