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

[MST3K 4ever]

Not much background to go through. Zsinj has attacked Corellia per orders of Grand Admiral Thrawn. He's attacked the orbital industrial stations and has just sent a squadron to steal Centerpoint Station

Fair enough when the Leia post is done I'll jump into the fray.

I....dislike you immensely right now......

Seconded.

 

[NiteMare Shape]

Seconded.

Yeah...and he might have mentioned that they're bringing Thrawn back in the books.......

 

[NiteMare Shape]

So, are you guys about ready to jump into the battle for Corellia, or did you want to do some more interacting on the trip there?

 

[Optikal]

So can anyone fill me in with the goings on in this game? What's going down with the Jedi & the Sith specifically?

Basically, Luke has just started the NJO. There are several students (all created characters) who are working to becoming the new Jedi knights. Luke has also recently met up with Kam Salusar.

2 of the students recently tracked down (and froze in carbonite) the mysterious "Lightsaber killer" who had been going around the galaxy killing force sensitives.

The Sith are pretty much dormant right now. Carnage had been working at reestablishing the Sith order but he's put a hold on those plans for now. The Jedi and Sith had a few run ins, but nothing had really taken too much root, though I do know that he is looking to revisit that at some point.

Starkiller is also out and about.

But right now the big story going on is that Zsinj has attacked Corellia at Thrawn's command and is currently wreaking hell in the system, and that's where everyone's headed at the moment.

 

[NiteMare Shape]

so...what's the deal?

 

[Rain Dog]

When Luke signaled his presence to Boolon, I assumed wieg wanted some interaction before the trip but if he decides otherwise, I'm cool with jumping ahead to Corellia.

Han and Leia can have a go in one of the Falcon's hidden compartments while they wait on everyone else.

 

[wiegeabo]

Forthe last three days, my Internet was crap. But I finally switched to cable last night. And it is FAST.

So I should have no problem posting tonight other than general laziness.

 

[MST3K 4ever]

I will be out of town for the next week so we can just say that Barrett is on the planet surface and making strides towards taking over the Communications Array.

You can bunny him if necessary.

Otherwise talk to you all when I get back.

AlohA!

 

[Carnage27]

I've been working on posts for all my characters in basically all my games. not sure when I'll get them up but I'll definitely have something up by Sunday.

 

[NiteMare Shape]

I think she started without you....

Threepio comes with some handy attachments....

Just kidding.

 

[NiteMare Shape]

[NiteMare Shape]

So the Dreams has arrived at Corellia...let's get this show on the road

 

[NiteMare Shape]

Oh guys, remember, along with his regular compliment of TIE fighters, he also uses a modified design called the TIE Raptor

.

Also, instead of Stormtroopers he has Raptor troopers which look like this

Screen Name: Optikal

Character you wish to play: Keyan Raiko (created character)

Race (such as Human, Wookie, Transdoshan, Hutt, Twi'lek, Rodian, Bothan, droid, Mon Calimari, etc): Human

Faction (does your character belong to a group, such as the New Republic, The Imperial Remnant, the Bounty Hunter's Guild, a specific crime syndicate, etc): No current faction affiliation

Background (list the history of your character here. Created Characters Must Be Thorough!):

The Outer Rim world of Wayland plays home to Keyan Raiko, a simple junkyard owner and his family. Keyan grew up working with his father in their junkyard, salvaging and scrapping a variety of ships and technology. The business was small but afforded a comfortable life for the young family. Keyans father passed away and left his business, his home and his ship, a rickety old GS-100 named The Scrap Hawk.

Recently though, Raikos yard has come under the eye of local mob boss, Harran K'null.

Character Class (choose one): Force Sensitive, Excellent Pilot. no current alliegiance.

What Font and Color will you be using for your character's speech: Dark Blue, Georgia

Items: DC-15s Blaster. GS-100 Scrap Shuttle. R4-K5 Astromech Droid.

Character Personality (Created Characters Must Be Thorough! Give a solid description on how your character acts, their morals, etc): Keyan is an out and out family man. He has seldom been off-planet and has lived a quiet life. At 25 years of age, he is a good man, honest, reliable and loyal. Cool, calm and diplomatic, Keyans main weakness is his over protectiveness of his young wife and son.

Character Alignment (Created Characters Must Be Thorough! Choose one): Neutral

Why have you chosen this character, and what are your plans for them: I have created Keyan with the hope to be able to tell a good story and help this RPG grow beyond the constraints of popular canon characters. I want to tell a story that compliments the depth of the universe we're playing in.

What can you bring to Star Wars: The RPG: I can bring enthusiasm, dedication and a little pinch of creative writing talent.

How often can you post IN A DAY in this RPG: As many as is needed.

Sample Post (write a sample post that is at least 4 paragraphs long and containing at least 3 lines of dialogue):

The rickety old salvage ship "The Scrap Hawk" drifted lazily through the blackness of space. At the helm stood the old Herglic,Tarvi-Oisin. To his right Keyan Raiko stood with his arms folded behind his back. His gaze focused on the abject blackness of the universe, not paying attention to the flotsam and jetsam the ship was rolling through. His long, dark hair was pulled back from his head and tied in a high top-knot. His trimmed beard framed a strong jaw, giving his young face an air of authority.

Tarvi sighed noisily, the air releasing from the blow hole on the top of his head in a hauum sound. "You know lad, a problem shared is a problem halved?"

Keyans shoulders sagged and his head fell slightly. "There's no problem to be shared Tarv, I was just thinking about Keyla."

The vision of his daughter came to him. She was five now and growing fast. Business had been slow and the small amount of credits Keyan was taking in was even more sparse thanks to the efforts of Harran K'null and his Enforcers.

"What about her?" the Herglic grunted.

"I just don't feel comfortable leaving them on the surface alone. Not with everything that's happening "

"You mean with Harrar and his thugs?"

"Yeah. They were back last week, took some things from the yard and a bunch of credits for 'protection'. I just don't know what to do".

"Report them to the authorities?"

"Come on Tarv, you know as well asI do that people like that have got the councillors in their pocket. What's the use?"

"Well I wouldn't stand for it, Key. I'd sort them nerf-herders out myself!"

Keyan laughed to himself as the old crewman thumped a fist into a palm. Tarvi was a good man, but sometimes saw things in pure black and white. Keyan unfortunately, could see nothing but the murky grays inbetween.

"Ah, I'm just in one of those moods. forgive my melancholy." Keyan turned and glanced at the hulking old trader. "Do we have any of that Andoan Ale left? I'm in the mood to melt my organs".

"Heh Heh! That's more like it lad", Tarvi chuckled. "Come on, we'll drink and talk of home and get it out of your system eh?"

Keyan smiled and moved towards the old captain, patting his huge shoulder. "Sounds like a plan Tarv! sounds like a fine plan indeed!"
