And now Part 25 of the Traitor Game Essentials re-presentation of Traitor Game VII: A Galaxy Far, Far Away. Will Cologne's Bounty Hunter make the right move? Will the forces of good prevail over Darth Jubba? Read on and find out. But first, some comic relief.

RUMINATIONS: Well, so here's the big climax where Darth Jubba gets his comeuppance.

Even though I had fun in the previous two Traitor Games interacting with everyone, there was something about their endings that bugged me. All of them just had characters who hadn't physically appeared before in that particular game (outside of flashbacks) just show up and defeat the villain. I felt that the player characters could stand to have a more active role in defeating the Big Bad, since said villain had been the main cause of all their troubles.

So here I decided to allow the players to get involved. Schornforce, tangentman, and Eternal Torment definitely wanted to play a part in the finale, and I was glad to take suggestions from them and make sure their characters were prominent. tangentman even sent me that entire section where Emma faces Jubba in the mindscape and finds out where the Dimensional Device is hidden. And there's payoff to what had been setup earlier with the Organization as well. All in all, I think it turned out rather well, and I'm glad it was well-received by the players.

I also couldn't resist bringing in Ukyo and Shampoo, with a little nod to the King from Traitor Game V. While they weren't going to be the ones to bring down Jubba, they could instead help to bring down the Rancor. Anyway, it did make sense for both of them to want to get involved.

Special thanks once again to Schornforce for contributing all the Darth Jubba illustrations.

Anyway, there's still the epilogues to come. Now that Cologne has the Dimensional Device, what will she do with it? We will find out in the coming installments.
