Coreworlds and Me

It’s been over a Real Life year now that me and Coreworlds have been battling, we have seen the destruction of Juria his Homeworld, the annexation of several of his allies such as Weyr, Klington and The Farstars. We have seen countless battles raging in the torrents of space, we have been at war for a very long time.

I have suffered as well. I’ve lost several main characters, my plans and plots stopped in their tracks, my capital world Coruscant almost reduced to smoking rubble at the hands of one character, my nemesis Daniel Masaki.

It has been a good war, none of our threads have ended in an OOC ignore, all our disputes and differences sorted out over MSN have made our Roleplay saga greater than that of George Lucas’s original creation.

I have seen Daniel Masaki trapped emotionally in circumstances out with his control, I have seen the character lose his family and loved ones, I have seen him deal with the twisting of his sister into something that can only be best described as a monster, I, and Coreworlds have now, seen it all.

But why is this thread even here I ask you, well it’s more of a lessen to absolutely everyone in the Nationstates community on how to roleplay, even if you are both dire enemies.

First of all me and Coreworlds share a passion for Star Wars, we love the saga and the diverse universe that can allow so many storylines. At the start of the conflict it was a war between nations, which, as I’m so sure most of you can realise often leads into an ignore, however our conflict grew into something more, something that had meaning. Our conflict started at the height of Afghanistan and Iraq dilemma, we were truly in an era that personified good against evil, which understandably slowly merged into our roleplays. Our battles were not against nations or power, our battles were a metaphor for real life, it was a visualisation of struggle and turmoil.

We repeatedly had titanic events, we had loss and pain, we had laughter and happiness, all of which made for some excellent reading and viewing. With the rise of me and Coreworlds, and our subsequent drowning of the NS boards in Star Wars threads (Yes we are the ones responsible) it would only be too apparent that more people would follow.

Eventually the popularity consumed nationstates and now Star Wars future tech nations are the most common around, I like to think that me and Coreworlds had a part to play in creating such a dedicated community within Nationstates and International Incidents.

Now on to my original point, my point is that no matter how much we differed from each other me and Coreworlds never ever took it too seriously, we both wanted to win of course, but we also wanted to further the story of Daniel Masaki and the tyrannical Empire.
Now that I have semi retreated from the Star Wars universe I reflect and see that our threads were not just a trial of good versus evil, but they were in fact a vast story of struggle and life as it is, that no matter how vast the odds are, no matter how titanic the opponent, morality and justice, if persevered with for long enough can guarantee you victory in the end, all it takes is commitment.

To every nation out there in Naitonstates, please just take some advice on board. Don’t ever go into a thread demanding victory, I’ve done it plenty of times, and all it results is an ignore and dispute. Instead, with me and Coreworlds, we went into the thread eager to write, eager to further a plot and a story of a character and saga, try and do the same, try and turn your roleplays into something meaningful, other than a simple blanket war. Use patience and common sense, improve your writing and above all respect your opponent.

Now I intend to use this thread to give a detail of the War of the Sith.
The beginnings of the Sith Wars were primarily concerned with the return of the Emperor Palpatine, also known as Darth Sidious, from cryogenic suspension.
Quickly returning to full power, he retook the Imperial cloning facilities of Kaminos, and unlocked his dormant Sith army. Quickly building in power; fortifying a solid power base, the Sith began their plans to strike out against their hated blood enemy....The Jedi.

7 Years Passed; and the Fleet, the Empire, with its Sith warriors reawakened; became a reality. This awakening was not unnoticed however; many felt the disturbances caused by the Sith as they echoed through the Force; mostly notably Coreworlds.

With General Veers reawakened and the Sith Fleets regaining power, the Emperor was enlightened to a new development by the scientists of the Sith; an all powerful battle station....The Death Star

The Sith launched a brutal and protracted war against Coreworlds; resulting in the destruction of the world Juria. Using this to rally many others to its side; Coreworlds continued to fight bravely against the Sith who was joined by many new allies; such as the brutal Doomans of Doomingsland, and the Expansionist and zealous Chronosian Imperium.

Eventually Coreworlds was defeated; its fleets laid to waste, and its shipyards all but destroyed by the power of the Death Star. The government officially surrendered, and Andrew Masaki fled; becoming leader of the Rebel Alliance; which would prove a continuing thorn in the Sith's side.

The war eventually turned to other allies of Coreworlds, including Weyr and the Wick; and they were eventually subsumed into Unified Sith's control; and the 'Galactic Empire', the organisation which contained representatives from Sith, her allies and the conquered nations. The Galactic Empire continued to grow; despite the ever present threat of the Rebel Alliance, and the growing sympathies and ambitions of any number of 'New Republics'

The Death of the Rebellion was caused by many factors, but the catalyst was the PredAlien. This strange creature who serves Emperor Helldawg VI of Doomingsland was sent to kill the Masaki family and gather information for the Sith Senate. He had fought with Daniel and Andrew Masaki on several seperate occasions, nearly killing Andrew. The PredAlien's life was ended on the Corelian Ship ,Soverign, where the PredAlien met up with a wise Klingtonian soldier, the Soldier tossed a EMP grenade at the creature to disable its robotic parts. The PredAlien destroyed it with force lightning when the ship was rammed and exploded, The soldier had held off the creature until its death. Or so they thought...

Later that day Core Worlds surrendered, much to the dismay of Core Worlds allies, the allies where forced to retreat and were angered greatly. Thousands had died for nothing, not a stand-off, not a victory, nothing. Needless to say, the Rebellion is dead. But not in the normal sense of the word. Small whispers echo through national goverments, and the Rebellion is still remembered, ready to rise up and fight again...someday...

In the aftermath of the final defeat of Coreworlds, Daniel Masaki was offered leadership of the Empire's 'Black Order' a secret organisations of intelligence gathering and covert ops. Rumor has it that the PredAlien never did die, and now serves under the boy he'd once hunted as an operative in the Black Order.

Upon the formation of the Black Order, the Imperial Navy under the leadership of Grand Admiral Thrawn sought about to pull control from the emperor. In a bid for absolute power and control the Empire plunged into civil war, with Lord Vader, Emperor Palpatine and Grand Admiral Thrawn each fighting for Galactic dominance. Eventually, in a climactic battle above Coruscant Lord Vader rammed his Super Star Destroyer into the control sector of the Death Star, rendering the battle platform inoperable. In the resulting chaos the Imperial Navy surrendered and joined Grand Admiral Thrawn, the new leader of the Empire.

During the Civil war the colony of the Farstars sought to gain independence from the Empire, revolting successfully against the Imperial Governor Engleman, Grand Admiral Thrawn did not have the resources, nor the spirit to quell this new rebellion, instead he bribed the Farstars with equal representation in the Galactic Senate and military protection.

In the peaceful months that followed, the puppet Senate slowly pulled increasing powers away from the Imperial Navy to such an extent that the Empire was in fact a Republic. This, and heightened tensions between the Senate and Grand Admiral Thrawn led to the excommunication of Grand Admiral Thrawn and political transformation of the Galaxy from an Empire into a Republic.

The political change did not sit well with all member nations, causing the Chronosian Imperium and the Dark Empire of Doomingsland to leave the Empire, resulting in another Galactic Civil war. Due to the large amounts of clones being used these were subsequently dubbed the second clone wars.
Eventually, the Republic won the war however, it became all to apparent that is was simply another Sith plot to insure dominance of the Galaxy. The Republic was once again transformed into an Empire. What’s more it was transformed by none other than Emperor Palpatine himself, long thought to be dead. In the resulting conflict between Sith and Jedi, Daniel Masaki was captured and executed by firing squad, heralding the demise of the Jedi.
Upon Daniel Masakis attempt to kill the newly established emperor, the Galactic Empire sought to punish Coreworlds, resulting in the bombardment of the nations worlds by ion weapons, rendering all technological equipment useless. The Empire subsequently established a large Faster than light inhibitor field, isolating the Coredians from the rest of the Galaxy while plunging their worlds into a new stone age.

Several years after the war, the Coreworlds are now ruled by the Dark Lady of the Sith, Darth Nightshade. It has also been noted that rumors of her brother Daniel Masaki's demise has been exaggerated and the two former siblings, now split along ideological and galatigraphical lines soon head towards a conflict greater than ever seen before.
And the saga continues...

Here is an extract of the threads I could find that detail the war between me and Coreworlds, as far as I can tell they are in chronological order, but its nice to have a reference.

And in the other corner, is the one, the only, the other half of the war...The Coreworlds!

Thank you, thank you, thank you very much! It's been a great pleasure to roleplay with you, Unified Sith. From the days of the Shivan War, to the here and now, we, of all players have created a saga of the Star Wars universe perhaps greater than the original. I, the All Around Good Guy, the Lightbearer of the Galaxy, verses the Evil Empire of the Dark Lords of the Sith. Always a great epic to read, especially in the fact that evil actually succeeds for a time.

But it is not over yet, oh no my friends! For as Yoda once said, there is another...

Epic RP, that is!

After all, there is still the matter of the Evil Sister to deal with...
