Star Wars Missions 8: Togorian Trap, released by Scholastic in April of 1998, represents the eighth installment in the Star Wars Missions series designed for young readers, doubling as a roleplaying game.
Assume the role of a bounty hunter. The directive from the Galactic Empire is to locate and trap the Rebel trio: Han Solo, Princess Leia, and Luke Skywalker on Togoria. Success hinges on navigating the dangerous Togorian wilderness, where formidable predators lie in wait. A substantial reward awaits those who survive this challenge. Your objective is clear: capture the Rebels and bring honor to the Empire.
May fortune favor you.
As the Punishing One enters the Thanos system, Han Solo, piloting the Millennium Falcon, successfully disables it. Dengar, Udin, and Eron Stonefield, aboard the Punishing One, had intended to seize Solo and claim the significant reward for his capture, but they are outmaneuvered. Abandoning their vessel, they utilize an escape pod to reach the planet Togoria.
The Falcon approaches the city of Caross, carrying Chewbacca, Leia Organa, Luke Skywalker, R2-D2, and C-3PO. The Margrave-sister, Ffaseer effet Ihsss, extends an invitation to Leia and her companions to attend a royal reception. Meanwhile, the bounty hunters, battered and weary, arrive on Togoria. While traversing the forest, they encounter Fassool's hunting party, who offer their assistance in locating and capturing Solo. One of the bounty hunters allies with Fassool's group and they proceed towards Caross. Upon arriving in Caross, the hunter overpowers Solo's companions and seizes Grubba, a Hutt. Solo briefly gains the advantage, but Grubba intervenes to save the hunter. Subsequently, the Rebels are transported to the Star Destroyer named Valiant.
However, the Valiant is already under the control of Rebel forces. Unknowingly, the bounty hunters deliver the Rebels into the hands of fellow Rebels disguised as Imperials, receiving fake credits as payment. Grubba is returned to Jabba, who expresses his dissatisfaction at the failure to claim the bounty on Solo's head.
