Arrest Zim Zam Blattis[]

Reward: 50 credits
Quest difficulty: 14

Conversation with Captain Gavyn Sykes[]

Captain Gavyn Sykes: Hello. I'm Captain Sykes with the RSF's smuggling patrol. This is a long shot, but maybe you could help me. We confiscated animal carcasses from a Gungan smuggling gang that was shipping them offworld. This violates all kinds of regulations. The leader says one smuggler is bringing more carcasses to the drop point. We're short-staffed right now, so I'm desperate. Can you try to stop the smuggler?
PC: Why are they smuggling animal carcasses?
Captain Gavyn Sykes: Our reports are sketchy, but apparently the animals in question died of some unusual disease. Maybe it's a Gungan ceremonial thing. Will you take the assignment?
PC: Yes.
Captain Gavyn Sykes: Good. I suspected you were made of sterner stuff than you look. This Gungan, Zim Zam Blattis, is known to be armed, so be careful.

A Gungan smuggler of the name of Zim Zam Blattis (CL 14) is about to bring an unusual shipment of illegal carcasses to a nearby drop point.

Stop him and return to Gavyn.

Conversation with Captain Gavyn Sykes[]

Captain Gavyn Sykes: Well, you carried that out with much greater precision than I had any right to expect. Thanks! Look me up again if you want more work.

The Berzerk Ikopi[]

Large Berzerk Ikopi

Reward: 100 credits
Quest difficulty: 48

Conversation with Captain Gavyn Sykes[]

Captain Gavyn Sykes: I have another emergency and another lack of qualified people. Apparently those Gungan smugglers I mentioned are looking for crazed animals. We've been getting reports of attacks by ordinarily harmless beasts. Here's a new report about -- let's see -- a berserk ikopi. Destroy this poor creature before the Gungan gang gets it.
PC: Why do the smugglers want crazed animals?
Captain Gavyn Sykes: The reports mention that these animals are suffering from an unknown virus that drives them berserk. It's possible the smugglers are looking for a bioweapon -- in which case, they're probably working for someone smarter than they are. Speaking of that -- yes or no?
PC: Yes.
Captain Gavyn Sykes: Good. I hope you'll once again exceed my expectations. These berserk animals can be dangerous, even the little ones -- and this ikopi is pretty big. Be careful.

Now, it seems that this Gungan smuggler gang is interested in capturing crazed animals suffering from an unknown virus, to possibly work on bioweapons.

You're asked to find and terminate a Large Berzerk Ikopi (CL 48) before the smugglers.

Conversation with Captain Gavyn Sykes[]

Captain Gavyn Sykes: I really do take back all the things I thought about you. Here's your reward. Talk with me later if you want more work.

Haf Mandrox[]

Reward: 150 credits
Quest difficulty: 1/?

Conversation with Captain Gavyn Sykes[]

Captain Gavyn Sykes: Are you interested in taking the fight against smugglers right to their leader's door? That Gungan smuggling gang is taking orders from a human thug, Mandrox, one of Borvo the Hutt's lieutenants. I already guessed Borvo would be at the bottom of this. I want you to bring in Mandrox for questioning.
PC: Why did you think Borvo was involved?
Captain Gavyn Sykes: Borvo the Hutt is behind every rotten thing on Naboo. Back in the Trade Federation War, some of us resisting the Neimoidians made an alliance with Borvo. But he betrayed us and killed my captain. Since then, I've fought Borvo on every front. Will you help?
PC: Yes.
Captain Gavyn Sykes: I'm beginning not to be surprised when you take these challenges. Mandrox is usually accompanied by two or three Gungan thugs, so as always, be careful.

Gavyn Sykes discovered that the Gungan smuggler gang is directly taking orders from Haf Mandrox, one of Borvo the Hutt's lieutenants.

When you arrive at the given waypoint, you may be ambushed by a few gungan thugs or not. Talk to Haf and return to Gavyn.

Conversation with Captain Gavyn Sykes[]

Captain Gavyn Sykes: You continue to surpass my expectations. Thanks for bringing in Madrox, and let me know if you want more work.

The Gungan Leader[]

Reward: 200 credits
Quest difficulty: 24

Conversation with Captain Gavyn Sykes[]

Captain Gavyn Sykes: I've learned some interesting facts from Borvo the Hutt's lieutenant, Haf Mandrox. He says Borvo's Gungan gang is shipping carcasses infected with that "Berserker Virus" to Corellian bioengineers. They must be trying to turn it into a bioweapon. I wouldn't ordinarily entrust you with this job, but you've proven yourself. I need you to take out the one in charge of shipping those bodies!
PC: What is the "Berserker Virus"?
Captain Gavyn Sykes: I'm no bioengineer, but my reports say the Berserker Virus rewires the animal brain to connect sensory input directly to aggression centers. Basically, whatever the animal sees, it hates and tries to kill. I'd really like your help in stopping this bioweapon scheme. Will you help?
PC: Yes.
Captain Gavyn Sykes: Good. Mandrox told us the coordinates he's located at currently. He's lightly guarded, but don't get overconfident. Report back here afterward.

It's getting worse. The animal carcasses smuggled by Borvo's Gungan gang are infected with a dangerous Berzerker Virus and supposed to be sent to Corellian bioengineers for researches on bioweapons.

You need to stop the Gungan Leader (CL 24) in charge of the next shipment.

Conversation with Captain Gavyn Sykes[]

Captain Gavyn Sykes: I misjudged you from the first and at every step. Now I'm convinced you're a capable agent. Take this reward with my thanks.
