Star Wars: The RPG ~ Episode VII: Dawn of the New Republic OOC Thread (II)

Special Thanks to Shlee for the Pics

Gamemaster: Wiegeabo
Assistant Gamemaster: Nitemare Shape

RULES

You may choose either a pre-existing character that fits the time period of the game, or create a SW character of your own.
Created characters must make sense and be original. Any character that is found to be too much like an existing character will NOT be approved.
If you are playing an alien, stay true to the mindset and general culture of that race. So do you're homework before selecting an alien race to play as.
Unnamed, faceless NPC's may be killed, provided it's not random and has some purpose behind it. PC character deaths must be more than just some random death, and must have meaning behind it other than shock. Major NPC characters are off limits.
Constructive criticism of posts can be given, but don't be an ******* about it and openly criticize another's work. We're not all as gifted a storyteller as George Lucas, or as skilled a writer as Timothy Zahn.
Communication is the one word to live by for the RPGs. Good communication between players not only helps the flow of the arc and increases the enjoyment of the storytelling process, but it also helps create new twists and ideas that can make for some memorable stories.
You can reside on any world in the Star Wars Universe and go anywhere within the galaxy that you desire, including the Unknown Regions.
You are your character, so act like it. Talk like them, use their dialouge. Do not exaggerate your abilities, or mannerisms. BE Your character.
Several stories can be going at once, and you have the freedom to interact with other characters.
You must post at least once every two weeks, though it is preferred that you post more. If you go two weeks without a post without prior notice, your character is up for grabs.
Know your weaknesses and strengths of your character, and your craft (a smuggler is not going to win a straight fight against a Jedi, and a X-Wing isn't going to do much against an Imperial Star Destroyer).
The Gamemasters have the final say in matters in the RPG. You may not always like their judgement, but that's life. Arguing about it is not only pointless, but does absolutely nothing to help your cause. Just man the **** up and move on.
There should be minimal cursing and swearing in posts.
There will be NO bypassing of the Hype! censor. This is a Hype! rule and no exceptions will be made.
People who disobey these rules, some more major than others, will get booted from the RPG by the Gamemasters. Further problems will cause the Hype! Mods to get involved and lead to bannings and possibly worse.

For Information on Planets, Places, and Potential Characters, look no further than Wookieepedia for all your SW needs.

For those interested, here is a star map of the entire Galaxy, complete with trade routes (compliments of Affliction)

Before anybody panics, let me assure you that - in compliance with the recent announcement - the last 96 posts of the original IC thread aren't gone. They've just been moved to the brand spanking new IC thread, with of course, wiegeabo's permission.

wiegeabo · 01-24-2011, 05:11 PM

You're damn right it was with my permission

There. Just wasted a perfectly good post.

NiteMare Shape · 01-27-2011, 07:46 PM

Hey guys, I'll be getting a post up in the next day or so.

I did have a date Saturday night, but we postponed it until next weekend due to the blizzard we're supposed to be getting this weekend, so I'll be around all weekend with nothing to do...expects posts....

NiteMare Shape · 02-07-2011, 06:38 PM

So...would anyone be against just wrapping this nice little party by the landing pad up by having us already on the Falcon headed to wherever the hell it is we're going?

Carnage27 · 02-07-2011, 06:54 PM

No that's fine.

Let's get the ball rolling.
