MISSION REPORT

Apprentice Emlar Racta
Apprentice Zarkang Kalkoran
Acolyte Veilak

We deployed to Lord Ivekus' facility on Ferron where we were greeted by a modified quadrupled abomination with a large snout. Likely some kind of exotic pet beast that was experimented on. As we got a tour of the premises, we were immediately greeted by jawas and other putrid alien lifeforms that had replaced the imperial guard on the facility. The new alien security force was armed, including a cephalopod species of some kind. The original staff have been imprisoned or otherwise disposed of, and as we learned by our beastling-guide, the current 'Lord Ivekus' was the former Apprentice of the previous one - the custodian of the facility and name both. This new Lord Ivekus has certainly gone positively mad, expressing an unbridled vitriol for 'two-legged' creatures. He was almost entirely naked, sat in the upper level of one of his warehouses. Myself and Apprentice Zarkang approached him as he rambled, while the Acolyte remained on the ground floor. As it became clear Ivekus was far too demented to be an asset to the Empire or a trusted custodian of his predecessor's facility, I resorted to remedy that. I struck my opening blow towards him in the middle of his rambling, something he intercepted with impressive speed. I imagine even in his current state, Ivekus has some form of precognition talent likely, or at least highly tuned reflexes. 

A direct offensive even in his current state proved to be ineffective, and we proceeded to exfil. I eliminated one of the largest modified beasts on our way out, and Acolyte Veilak saw to the extraction of two former workers along with us. They should be able to procure more information on the site.

I propose that given the absence of mental stability in Lord Ivekus, that our response is in a strike force to dispatch him and his entrenched creatures that serve as security now.
