Attack on the Senate Building

"That's right, Master Tachi. This will be a day the Senate will long remember. A bloodbath."

- Granta Omega to Siri Tachi

In 24 BBY the criminals Granta Omega and Jenna Zan Arbor led an attack on the Senate Building on Coruscant. The attack saw 21 senators, including Tyro Caladian, killed.

Prelude
"I have been tracking Granta Omega and Jenna Zan Arbor, both of whom are familiar to you. What if they were behind this latest scheme? What if it is merely a smokescreen for their real plan?"

- Obi-Wan Kenobi to Tyro Caladian

In 24 BBY, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Siri Tachi with their Padawan apprentices Anakin Skywalker and Ferus Olin respectivley embarked on a mission to Falleen where the team hoped to find and apprehend Jenna Zan Arbor and Granta Omega. The team were summoned to Coruscant by Mace Windu, who informed them that the Senate was in debate about withdrawing their sponsorship of the Jedi Order.

The team met with Chancellor Palpatine alongside Windu, who informed them that leading the charge of the Senate debate was Bog Divinian, husband to Kenobi's friend Astri Oddo. Kenobi soon learned with his senatorial friend, Tyro Caladian, that it was Granta Omega behind the debate to withdraw sponsorship of the Jedi.

Siri Tachi and Ferus Olin, meanwhile, had located Omega and Zan Arbor's hideout on Coruscant and requested assistance from Kenobi and Skywalker. As they entered after forcing an entry, they came under attack by droids, which were swiftly defeated. But Kenobi fell into a booby-trap which summoned droidekas to attack the spot Kenobi was at. Once they were disposed of, the four inspected the room and found a garnish that Dexter Jettster was known for. Kenobi and Skywalker set off for Dex's Diner soon after to gather additional evidence.

After speaking with Jettster, Kenobi and Skywalker found evidence that Omega and Zan Arbor planned to heist the All Planets Relief Fund treasury, and that the Zone of Self-Containment, a drug, would be unleashed on the Senate. Kenobi informed Tachi and Olin of their findings while Skywalker was assigned to the Chancellor.

The attack
"Ah, better. Let me explain. I have programmed a hundred seeker droids with the vital information to key Senators as well as to Palpatine. All I have to do is push the button."

- Granta Omega explains his plot to the Jedi During the Chancellor's speech where the latter accepted the treasury, the Jedi soon found that one of the guards looked suspicious, which pushed the Jedi into battle. Only too late did they discover that the true intent of Onmega's plan was to assassinate the Chancellor.

With Skywalker assigned to protect the Chancellor and Tachi en route, Kenobi left in pursuit of Omega and Zan Arbor. When he found them in a speeder, he skirmished with the pair. Kenobi needed to retreat when Omega deployed seeker droids on him, and he soon was joined by Tachi and Skywalker, who revealed that he left Olin with the Chancellor.

The team confronted Omega, who instantly fled the scene. Meanwhile, Olin remained with the Chancellor and was fending off seeker droids that sought to shoot him down. As Kenobi noticed Roy Teda being followed by a seeker droid, Olin saved him by slicing it. But Teda aimed a blaster at Olin and attempted to fire, only to be shot by the final droid. A moment later, Tyro Caladian came in for Kenobi, but he was shot down.

Aftermath
Omega and Zan Arbor escaped, and Divinian's appeal to have the Jedi blamed for the attack failed. Divinian was disgraced after his failure and a memorial service was helf for the late Caladian. Shortly afterwards, Kenobi and Skywalker would find a list to the places Omega had been too. Sometime after that, they killed Omega on Korriban.
