Capsule: Tawn Porew is an example of what happens when the Empire goes too far. Her parents were killed by stormtroopers for not surrendering their farm and property to the local Imperial governor. She swore she would avenge their deaths. She started by blowing up the governor’s landspeeder, then worked her way up to his office. She tried to blow up his home, but was caught as she was sneaking out. Fortunately for her, she was freed by the local underground Rebel cell. Impressed by her skill in demolitions, they smuggled her off the planet to the closest Rebel base for training. She was assigned to Commander Peck’s unit six months ago as demolitions expert, and was given the chance to do what she enjoyed — harassing the Imperials.
Porew is a lovely lady with shoulder-length brown hair and smiling blue eyes, although she often has a serious look about her.

Capsule: Peck runs one of the best commando outfits in the Rebellion. Some say that Peck was a commando himself in previous conflicts. Others say he used to be a terrorist on his home planet. Whichever it is, only Peck himself knows for sure, and he doesn’t talk about it. Peck’s unit has been together for about a year now, and Peck has seen many people pass in and out of it. The most painful loss was that of Beka Lewis, his former second-in-command. He had fallen in love with her. but mercenaries hired by the Empire caught them both when they were on leave. The mercenaries killed her before he could stop them. Since then, he has a strong dislike for those who, in his opinion, are only in it for the money.
Peck is an older man, tall and thin, with graying hair and a stern demeanor.

Adventure Idea
After recently joining the Rebel Alliance, the characters give up their life as free-traders and are temporarily assigned to Commander Peck’s unit, giving the unit more transport capability. They must sabotage Imperial operations in this sector while evading Captain Dalton and the Star Destroyer Engager.
