Theed Campaign Guide

There are a few Wizards RPG things related to Theed invasion. I checked them all out as part of my investigations on Rorworr (Naboo) (Director's Cut, with expanded Bts).

  1. Precursor comic: Battle for Theed. all three pages seen free here: [1]. Note: this is not Scouting Mission of Occupied Theed.
  2. Star Wars: Invasion of Theed Adventure Game uses simplified or "Fast-Play" introductory rules.
    • Rulebook's example scenario describes Scouting Mission of Occupied Theed.
    • Characters presented: Rorworr, Deel Surool, Sia-Lan Wezz, Galak, Toba, Dané, Arani Korden, and Rann I-Kanu. All but Toba are students at Royal House of Learning.
    • Adventure 1: Characters are just chillin' in Theed. Battle droids show up and declare them under arrest. Players fight to a speeder and get out. Very quick encounter.
    • Adventure 2: Characters have joined the Naboo Underground, by Lucos Dannt, a professor of the aforementioned House of Learning. The hide within Theed. Adventure 2 is Theed Palace Plaza Prison Break.
    • Adventure 3A: Students are asked to help Lialla Tane free her parents. Street of Glory Prison Break
    • Adventure 3B: Students are captured. Escape from Prison Compound 32. Minor Appearance by Darth Maul (IE, this takes place after Maul arrives at Naboo). Provides notes that allow players to rescue Tane's parents if 3A was not completed.
    • Adventure 4: Students are just wandering around Theed aimlessly (No indication they know of Queen's plans) when a bunch of surprise fighting breaks out. They are approached by Sabé, disguised as Queen. Sabe asks heroes to distract the tanks around the palace so that she can enter the palace.
    • Adventure 5: After battle, during funeral of Qui-Gon, Heroes are asked to investigate Savor Kibbs, who plans to attack/disrupt the Naboo/Gungan parade.
  3. Battle in the Streets! Fast-play, uses characters from Invasion Game (above). Meant to take place b/n Adventure 4 and 5 of Adventure Game. Crew goes back to Palace Plaza after helping Sabé, and battles a walking Vulture Droid. Battle can last until Space Victory.
  4. Signal Interruption Clause indicates it uses characters from Adventure Game (above). Attack on Kwilaan Sensor Array.
  5. Secrets of Naboo Entire sourcebook is primarily a dosser/assessment attached to letter from Chancellor Valorum to Qui-Gon Jinn. Leter is just before Episode I, asking Qui-gon to intervene while formal request to Jedi Temple is processed/reviewed.
    • Peril on Naboo is the adventure in Secrets of Naboo sourcebook.
      • Act I Covers "crew of the Crescent" getting shot down late in blockade, entering Theed to recover supplies, then escaping Theed as invasion commences. Lots of minor encounters.
      • Act II: Crew escaped Theed, finds their ship missing, meets up with Mett Habble within the day, and joins the Naboo Resistance, as organized by Mett Habble. Crew hangs at Hebble's camp well outside of Theed, doing nothing heavier than guard duty, then meets Queen (at her starship, contradictions or earlier meeting?), then Recovery of Transport 714.
      • Act III: Crew uses transport to get to secret passage entrance, drops off Queen&Friends. (This is the only source I could find that covers the approach to the secret passage. Most other cut from meeting to opening shots on Grassy plains, then cuts to Naboo soldiers already in Theed. Obi-Wan GBA game has obi-wan within the secret passage). After Queen&Friends in passage, Grassy Plains Battle begins. Crescent Crew contacted by city's remaining commander drooid (PDA-2), and transport is towed to hanger's repair wing. Crew fights a bit in repair bay, then Naboo Soldiers start attacking elsewhere. Minor appearance of Darth Maul before he heads to hanger (ala Episode I). Crew eventually intercepts Gode Takrab. While crew scours Takrab's shuttle for clues to fake treaty, Nute Gunray sends droids to secure shuttle for his escape. Implied that Nute Gunray stayed in throne room rather than retreating early because shuttle was never secured. Crew holds shuttle until Space victory.
      • Act III pictures Sia-Lan Wezz, Deel Surool, and Rorworr, but does not identify.
      • Fact File 91 ([2],[3]) identifies/pictures Crew of Crescent as Deel, Rorworr, Arani Korden, and Galak. Identifies "Dane" (likely Dané), but pictures Sia-Lan instead.
  6. Three part Dané Biography. Note: IoTAG indicates Dané is handmaiden-in-training at 14, during Invasion. Her bio indicates she was 16 before she joined Handmaiden training.
  7. Three Part Toba Biography. First page indicates Toba is with Gungan Grand Army.
  8. Three Part Rorworr Bio:
  9. Galaxy of Intrigue has a section dedicated to Naboo Resistance.

Peril on Naboo and the Invasion of Theed Adventure Game take place at the same time, and while nothing indicates they are designed to co-mingle, they both share a number of characters/heros. Lucos Dannt of the Underground doesn't know where queen is, and isn't part of her meeting plan. Mett Habble of the Resistance knows she's headed to Coruscant w/n hours of invasion, and is part of her strategy meeting. Seems to indicate that Underground and Resistance are two independent cells. Likely that there are in fact several resistance cells.
