  1. It's time for another one of Pakkrat's insane ideas, so bear with me for a while.... You know how the Red Dragon covets the Mahjong tiles because they like to play and collect anything from ancient Chinese culture of Earth? Here goes.... "White Dragon" Chan - Wing Chan is a sub-leader hero of the Red Dragon and has made his home in the Shodakan Nebula as its guardian. He is a master pilot and warrior of the Tongs. Security of the sector from pirate hunters is his duty. His ship is nigh-impervious and his gleaned technology and psionics of the bitter White Dragon unparalleled. He flies about the Nebula, but whispers tell that he secretly longs for an intruder into pirate space from Paramis, Smugglers Run. Annually he brings with him the only known "White Dragon" Tile from the ancient Chinese game of Mahjong. It is rumored to have been a gift from the Ancients or some other alien race to the Chinese astronomers who were vigilant of the night skies above them. Only when this tile and three other Dragons tiles are brought together can the Tongs engage in the expanded version of Mahjong with the Dragon Suit. Pilots rumor that the tile has taught Chan something mystical or esoteric that makes him undefeated and that the source of such power is the White Dragon Tile. Could the recovery of such a relic be truly blessed? What bonus could the tile confer? If it were ever lost, the Red Dragon Tongs would pay dearly in credits and reputation to see it returned to their criminal organization. "Red Dragon" Lu Wong Fei - Lu Wong Fei has been tasked with active piracy on the high space lanes. His dreaded ship is feared by all the races and only Sol Sec has yet to stand up to his menace. So fearsome is he that many ships have been shot down in flames even as they cowered or turned tail running. Rumor has it that Fei was once a Sabine Order Sentinel Specialist who gave his secrets and technologies over to the Red Dragon Tongs. His Menace and Repulsor Fields are the worst and most insidious of his firepower. But worse still is the whispers of an ancient relic from China, the Red Dragon Mahjong Tile. The last of its kind, this tile has been rumored to be the core source of Lu Wong Fei's power. Should the Progen-turned-pirate ever be defeated and the Red Dragon Tile be recovered, its new owner may find new found bonuses. It goes without saying that the Tongs would pay dearly for the return of the mystical Tile. "Green Dragon" Chiang Lung - Chiang, fed up with the few numbers of the Kaojin Jenquai "The Destoryers" and their inability to mount a full movement for a cause, has left them for the Red Dragon under Shou Tzu. He carries with him the high-tech abilities and psionics of the Jenquai race. His stealth is legendary. From the shadows he pounces and laces his victims with deadly chemical ammunition. For Chiang Lung is a user of Projectile weapons. But fiercer still is the rumored jade treasure he carries, the Green Dragon Mahjong Tile. Legendary is this relic and whispered to be a shard of a heartbroken princess of ancient Earth China. So poisoned was her heart that the shard turned into the deadly Green Dragon Tile, conferring deadly power to its owner. Chiang Lung is the current bearer of this broken heart Tile. He brings it with him annually and garners tears and sighs when he places it upon the table for the tournament then. Silence reigns until it is shuffled into the tiles deck and play begins. "Black Dragon" T'ien Kang - Kang the Terran pirate who was a Talonite devotee of the legendary Edward "Blackbeard" Teach until pirate space was commercialized with the purchase of Paramis Station by Net-7 News. His void missiles are deadly and reaching. His ship shatters hope as he recharges his shields often, stagnating any assault upon his ship or wing of Veteran Dragons. It is his duty to lay siege to 61 Cygni A and B and plunder its treasures from both the Terrans and the Progen. But still from the darkest reaches come the secret of his power: the Black Dragon Tile. Last transmissions from victim ships under fire from Kang's void missiles report a deadly and acidic mix of Dark Matter and Singularity that give his void missiles their name. When the hero Kang arrives at the annual Mahjong tournament with the Black Dragon Tile, many player contestants lose their nerve and bolt from the gathering. The Dragons Mahjong Tiles are game-wise classified as Devices. They can be installed for a bonus of some kind. However, the Dragon Tiles are territorial and will brook no other Dragon Tile upon the same vessel. Thus the legendary four have been divided and scattered across the galaxy's Tongs heroes. The criminal Tongs of the Red Dragon will pay credits and Faction reputation to the pirate who returns lost Dragon Tiles to them via Wu Zing the Collector at Mercury Station, Glory's Orbit. Each Dragon Tile is Unique, Non-Trade, and cannot be looted if any other Dragon Tile is in possession of the looting pilot. No pilot can possess more than one of any of the four Dragon Tiles. Each confers a bonus to its possessor. Rumors persist that that pilot is also hunted by the various governments in hopes that they will recover the Tile and put some real pressure on the criminal organization. The Quality of the Dragon Tiles is always 100% and cannot be damage or lose quality. They are galactic absolutes. Constructive comments or suggestions? From the Archives at Net-7 SOL, this is the Pakkrat.
