Introduction
The Ilum Inquisition is a short story adventure for a party of 4-5 players at the 5th Level. It takes place during the Clone Wars, but can easily be adapted to other eras. In this story the players are tasked to travel to Ilum, the frozen planet that the Jedi would send Padawan learners to collect and build their first lightsaber, using a Kyber Crystal gathered inside the caverns.

Background
In the middle of the Clone Wars, A group of Jedi, recovering from their wounds at a camp are attacked by members of the dark side, under the allegiance of Count Dooku. The wounded Jedi are forced to reveal information regarding Ilum and it's Kyber crystals. While many prominent dark side users, such as Count Dooku himself are already aware of the planet, many of the less acolytes and aspirants of the dark side are unaware of the planets existence. The leader of the maruaders, a dark aspirant, wants to gain favor with his master, Count Dooku, and wants to strip Ilum of all its crystals. Grand Master of the Jedi; Yoda, has sensed this disturbance and by using the force to communicate, has selected a group to go under the radar, and unknown to many, to put an end to the aspirants plans.

Outline of Adventure
Act 1
The party meets in the Jedi Council Temple on Coruscant, and are promptly briefed by Yoda about the task. The players are then given access to some of the shops inside the temple that have reduced prices on certain items, as well as any necessary gear needed, such as heat sources and cold climate clothes or protection. They are then given the starship, known as the Sylvek Infinity.
Act 2
The players are on board the Sylvek Infinity and have free roam inside. They have to escape Coruscant's space that has been one of the more watched planets at the current time, by the Trade Federation, who are taxing and interrogating majority of the starships exiting or entering the planet. The Sylvek Infinity is equipped to handle both a stealth or heads on approach, and must be able to make it to hyperspace safely.
Act 3
Upon exiting hyperspace, the group will come upon the titular planet, upon entering the planets atmosphere the party must safely land, and traverse the frozen tundra in the middle of an intense blizzard, blocking vision, and slowing movement.
Act 4
Once the party reaches the Jedi Temple, they must complete puzzles and combat encounters before meeting the Dark Aspirant, known as Notrame deep within the caves. Once the encounter with Notrame is over, the party must then take on several quick skill checks in order to safely escape and return to Yoda, who will provide the players each with a special reward, and the ability to use the Sylvek Infinity as their own starship.
ACT 1
Players start at the Jedi Council on Coruscant, they have all been summoned by Grand Master Yoda, who sensed a disturbance in the force.
Yoda explains that a dark side user of the force has acquired navigational information regarding the location of one of the most sacred Jedi Temples and training grounds on the frozen planet of Ilum.
Lore Skill Check(13)
(Force users auto pass)Players who are not force users can make a Lore skill check to learn some information about Ilum:
Ilum is the frozen desolate planet where young padawan learners would go to build their very first lightsaber using the Kyber Crystals that grow naturally in the caves of the planet. Only one crystal calls out to the padawan and it's a task they must take alone to prove that they are ready for an apprenticeship with a Jedi Knight.
Yoda explains further that he cant send any one else other than this group as the Clone War is the Jedi's main priority. He has a ship ready for them with a navigational route set to Ilum, located in the Ship Bay and allows them access to the Jedi Outfitter and Armory, which is low on armaments at the moment but does have enough equipment to spare.
Role Playing Yoda
Yoda, as we all know has a very unique way of vocalizing his words. He does seem disturbed by what could happen if all the Kyber Crystals were taken by the dark side. Yoda does have a lot of information he can give the party, regarding Ilum or the way there, including the Trade Federation Blockade looming above the planet.

Act 4
The Frozen Wall
Located in the glacial wall the players see a large structure appear from behind the raging blizzard. An ancient large frozen sculpture of an unknown Jedi Master, and a smaller padawan sculpture in front holding that looks to be a crystal in their hands, the Master seems at point to have had both hands resting on the smaller padawan's shoulders but time has eroded and snow has covered most of it. There is a large snow glossed staircase leading up below the sculptures.
The wind that has been constantly howling seems to be blocked by the glacial wall, aside from the sounds the party makes there is not much noise.
Into the Temple
The party ventures up the staircase, which leads into a small frozen tunnel, it is made of stone and aside from the snow thats blown in over time the erosion has not hindered the magnificant carvings on the walls, showing the several trials a young padawan must make.
At the end of this quiet tunnel it opens up to a large circular room with two gear like mechanisms in front of two large robed statues on either side.
Above the chamber the party sees a large mechanical device that seems to harness a large crystal, and a single beam of light shining through the very top of the chamber, the crystal is hung from the ceiling of the chamber with a large frozen chain. On the opposite side of the chamber from the entrance there is a massive glacial wall that seems to be blocking a corridor behind it.
Along the walls, there are several other devices that seem to be attached to a coil that wraps around the entire room, there are two coils one above the next, the lower of the two coils is just slightly higher than the top of the glacial wall.
At the very center of this large chamber, that is full of carvings and Jedi scriptures. There seems to be a small fire that is reduced to smoldering ashes, as well as 1d6 B2 Super Battle Droids that appear inactive, guarding the gears.

B2 Super Battle Droid
An advanced battle droid used by the Confederacy of Independent Systems during the Clone Wars
Mirrors and Caves
after the droids are dispatched the chamber is empty. The only noise heard is the low roars of the snow storm outside. The party should long rest here. After resting over night the party must now attempt to melt the glacial wall. The wall will not melt by any means other than the puzzle shown below. The goal of the puzzle is to move the coils around the room, by using the gears.
Melting the Wall
The two gears on either side once moved rotate a coil above the chamber, each coil has 3 mirror like objects attached and angled in different ways. (see diagram for details)
- Green shapes must line up with yellow lines, the door's top is lined with bottom of lowest coil.
Gear Controls
- The gear on the left controls the highest coil
- The gear on the right controls both coils(at once)
- The large crystal in the middle also seems to be out of place
Jedi players are supposed to use force to move the crystal so that it heats up and refracts the light to the highest set of mirrors.
If there are no force users in the party, add a lever in the center that can be pulled up or down, but must be held be a player.
![](https://www.gmbinder.com/images/4kaRSG7.png)
Once the mirrors line up properly the ice wall melts but seems to also slowly start to refreeze.
![](https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/starwars/images/8/8e/Ilum_Jedi_Temple_layout_FDNP.png/revision/latest?cb=20160828195626)
Into the Caves
Once through the ice door the party comes to a large staircase made entirely of carved stone, which spirals up and down with various exits scattered along the way, and lots of floors that seem to have been long since caved in.
Meditation Chambers
If the players decide to go up they will see some old padawan meditation rooms, there isn't much here, except each room has the Jedi Code written.
The Jedi Code
There is no emotion, there is peace.
There is no ignorance, there is knowledge.
There is no passion, there is serenity.
There is no chaos, there is harmony.
There is no death, there is the Force.
Building a Lightsaber
There is also a central meditation room, with what looks like an altar, but with discarded lightsaber parts. There are enough discarded parts to create at least 2 sabers, or 1 double bladed saber, however building a lightsaber requires a crystal so only a force user, wielding a lightsaber can create one.
If any player builds a saber here, they gain +1 to damage and attack rolls, and can choose a new color, except red and black (for obvious lore reasons)
Building a lightsaber requires a force point, and making a Technology Skill check (they pass regardless, if its a natural 1 the saber doesn't get the +1 property, and if its a natural 20, the player gets an additional +1)
Storage area
At the very bottom of the staircase, lies a large open room. It is full of containers and various padawan gear littered about. with only one exit, this room could be a great place to take a rest if needed, if the players look up, they can actually see part of the Main Chamber, and can see the glacial wall freezing slowly.
The Force Tunnels
The players head into the bioluminated caves. The tunnel winds and twists with several various darkened exits. The main path downwards is slightly brighter than most of the other pathways. Some pathways clearly lead to dead ends or even pitfalls that have been frozen over with ice.
Tracking the Enemy
The party can see tracks on the ground that seem to lead in one single direction.
Investigation Skill Check (10)
There are droid tracks and humanoid tracks, the humanoid tracks are less frequent than the droids.
If party is rushing, and not being stealthy they can encounter 1d6 B2 Super Battle Droids, that are patrolling the various caves.
The Tunnels of Oath
The tracks then stop at a crossroad, two paths lead on, both shrouded in darkness.
Each tunnel entrance has one word engraved on the top.
![](https://www.gmbinder.com/images/1EtQmYw.png)
The first entrance is PASSION, and above the opposite PEACE
- The next set is "KNOWLEDGE" & "STRENGTH"
- The next set is "POWER" & "SERENITY"
- The next set is "VICTORY" & "HARMONY"
- The next set is one path, labeled "FORCE"
Aurabesh Option
In the diagram below, the words on each engraving are written here in Aurabesh this is technically just Galactic Basic but can provide a fun additional level of a challenge to the party.
Each tunnel caves in after exiting, so that the party cannot back track and must attempt each crossroad.
If players have gone through any Order of the Sith corridors the last opening has (1d4) Dark Acolytes waiting. The final passage way, marked “FORCE” casts a dark red aura, where the darkness usually would be. The party must go through the final corridor after dispatching the Dark Acolytes.
Once the party exits, they are at the beginning again and must progress via the Jedi Code.

The Kyber Mining Area
The party finally makes it through the cave, to find that the caverns open up wide and vast, millions of Kyber crystals glisten far and wide, there's an underground river that snakes around several islands, and lots of pits that lead into the planets abyss below.
On one of the large islands, the party sees a hooded figure commanding several Dark Acolytes that seem to be carrying large chunks and handfuls of Kyber crystals onto a large storage unit that is almost full to the brim with Kyber crystals and destroyed droid parts. The hooded figure turns and notices you.
Roleplaying Notrame
Notrame is a Zabrak, with tan skin, and green facial tattoos. This character is one of Dooku's more experienced dark side force users, but considered unworthy as a Sith.
He was never given a chance to undergo Jedi Trials as Dooku had found him on Dathomir, already older than most.
He is unaware of any and all Jedi information, including the fact that Dooku was once a Jedi himself, who has been to Ilum before. Notrame hates Jedi, and stops at nothing to see them fall.
Notrame is arrogant, brutal and vicious as much as possible and doesn't care who gets in his way from impressing his master. Notrame hopes that Dooku will reward him with more training and more status in his plan to destroy the Jedi. Notrame snarls and menacingly laughs when ever he is hit or hits anything with an attack.
The Inquisition
“These are for my master, the Sith Lord Count Dooku” Notrame screams. "He is building an army the Jedi has never seen before, once we bleed these raw Kybers we shall have true power over the force, and the Sith will rise again. The Jedi will fall.”
Notrame sends 3 Dark Acolytes forward, all jumping across the large gap separating their island from the parties.
Every top of the initiative round, Notrame will send a large ice boulder at a random party member. The player must make a DC 13 Dexterity Saving Throw, or take 1d8 kinetic damage, if that player is not engaged with an enemy, they gain advantage on the saving throw, or can use a reaction to hit the ice boulder with a ranged attack, if they possess the ability to do so. The boulders Armor Class is 13.
Notrame
Once the Dark Acolytes are dispatched, Notrame drops his robe and jumps down. Notrame reveals his double bladed saber, the red color sparks and the saber hums almost as if it seems in pain. Notrame twirls the saber around with extreme finesse and with one leap he lands in front of the party.

Notrame falls forward and lies still, his lightsaber fades and a sudden blast of wind chills the air.

Once Notrame is taken care of, the players will have to make a speedy attempt to get out of the caves before the freeze has overtaken the doorway. The following skill checks must be completed by a player that has proficiency. If the player fails, another player can attempt to try. If no party member has a proficiency in the skill, any player can attempt the skill check.
If a check is failed, the players who attempted must make a DC 15 Dexterity Saving Throw or fall to the back of the line, behind by 10 ft.
SKill Check | Reason |
---|---|
Nature (12) | To remember that the wall is freezing still. |
Investigation (13) | To safely retrace your steps. |
Survival (14) | To evade any remaining droids on patrol. |
Perception (15) | To notice the stalactites forming. |
Athletics/Acrobatics (15) | To dodge the falling ice shards. |
If the group is all within 10 ft. of each other they can successfully get under the glacial doorway. Any players stuck behind the door can attempt to shatter the door from the inside.
Nature/Survival Skill Check (10)
The newly formed door is still currently freezing over, a strong attack or any heat can may yet open it.
