Mission to Qiilura

"It's the capture alive bit that complicates matters. Or else we could just bomb it back to Hutt Space."

- Darman .

Omega Squad's first mission together was their Mission to Qiilura.

Background
Jedi Master Kast Fulier and his apprentice Etain Tur-Mukan were on the planet gathering information, but Master Fulier was captured and Etain hid. Omega Squad was sent to Qiilura to sabotage research on a clone-killing nanovirus and apprehend the scientist in charge of the research, Dr. Ovolot Qail Uthan.

The mission
During planet-fall, Darman was separated from the rest of the squad, and met up with Etain. The rest of Omega Squad had to evade natives, and soon enough met up with the shape-shifting Gurlanin Jinart. Jinart proved to be a huge help with the mission, by gathering information and acting as a go-between for Darman and the rest of Omega Squad.

To allow Omega Squad to communicate via comlink, Niner took out the planet's communications facility in Teklet, preparing the squad for their final assault. The squad then assaulted the research facility and captured the nanovirus along with Dr. Uthan. Atin and Darman brought both back to a waiting LAAT/i gunship, but Hokan's second in command came with a speeder bike and shot Atin with a high-powered Verpine weapon. Uthan was also wounded, and it is unknown whether or not she lived.

Meanwhile, Niner and Fi faced Hokan by themselves. The battle was taking too long, so Niner laid on the ground and pretended to be horribly wounded, screaming for his training sergeant Kal Skirata. Hokan was about to kill Niner with a vibroblade, but Etain came from behind and sliced Hokan's head off. Fi kept the Mandalorian helmet.
