The Bastard Child of Star Wars and Brothers in Arms (OOC, Interest)

Ansuria

I've had this idea for a little while, now, and have been putting it off for no particular reason. I first came up with the concept over a ten-second burst of genius one summer afternoon, and recieved some positive words from other roleplayers I spoke to.

The idea is, that participants will take on the role of a member of the 501st Legion, that most famous of Star Wars military units. Either an officer or stormtrooper of any rank, we would progress through the timeline of the Galactic Civil War, beginning with the storming of the Tantive IV over Tatooine, and probably (Though not necessarily) ending with the Battle of Endor in 4 ABY.

We would each play individuals in a single stormtrooper squad or platoon (Depending on the popularity of this venture), roleplaying the daily lives of the average Imperial jarhead as well as battle situations. We would obviously include as many scenes from the Original Trilogy as is practical, feasible and sensible as well as our own day-to-day situations.

I hope that other NSers can view the idea with the same attraction as I do, and I also hope that this proves a detailed and interesting roleplay. If you already have an idea for your character, please fill in the following fields.

Name/Designation:
Rank:
Date of Birth: Standard measurement is years after the Great ReSynchronisation (Year 0 = 35 BBY, Year 1 = 34 BBY, etc).
Homeworld:
Height: In metres.

View my infantry store front Theo. It's got most (if not all) of the weaponery used durring the Galactic Civil War era.

I could dig up some other links later on.

EDIT:
Believe it or not, most of the weaponery was available to most of the squads around that time in the Empire... Just difficult to get at.

Given that the Imperials only allowed the manufacture of sanctioned weapons, and the Rebels stole practically everything they used in the earlier conflicts... Here's a list of SW heavy weaponry.

http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Heavy_launchers
http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Category:Personal_range_weapons

You'll have to sift through them to find the Imperial stuff, but I can tell you now that as a heavy weapons Stormtrooper, you'd be most likely using the DLT-19 (http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/DLT-19_heavy_blaster_rifle) (SAW), the MiniMag PTL (http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/MiniMag_PTL%28portable%29_missile_launcher) (Infantry-portable missile launcher), or the older PLX-1 (http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/PLX-1_portable_missile_launcher) (Another missile thing).

Ansuria
04-09-2006, 22:59
Jango had brown eyes. The original clones were born in 32 BBY (Year 3), and I would expect a fully-matured clone to have been born at least ten years before the attack on the Tantive IV (Clone maturation rate is twice the human rate, due to gene-mods). Say... Year 21, which was fourteen years before the attack on the Tantive IV, giving your clone a physical age of 28.

Unfortunately, the DC-17m and the DC-15s were no longer in use during the Galactic Civil War, or were at the very least being phased out in favour of the newer E-11.

A friend of mine has suggested that we begin at the very beginning of the Empire era, with the March on the Jedi Temple. Those weapons would be in use during that period, as the clonetroopers had not yet become stormtroopers.

ISA, I will have to ask you to do something for me.

Either use Word during the rp, and spellcheck and re-read every post you make, or learn to spell. I understand that you may either be young, or dyslexic, or not speak English as a first language, but if you are to participate in this rp I will have to ask you to use a better standard of spelling and grammar than you have displayed so far.

You have written less than a single sentence on your character's appearance, and his history. You use no punctuation, nor capital letters, and if you cannot write to a better standard then I will respectfully have to ask you to leave the rp. I do not want to 'expel' a player, especially one who shows enthusiasm, so early in the rp.

If you can show me that you can consistently produce work of a better standard, then I will gladly welcome you, but if I must expect entire posts in this manner then I'm sorry, but I must ask that you go away and practice.

Bump if you like, it always helps. Once or twice a day, giving about four hours between at least.

Dyslexia is a valid excuse, but it doesn't mean you're stupid. Think up a paragraph or so for the history, and a couple of sentences for appearance. Post it here, and I'll clean it up if I think it needs it.

We might be using off-site forums, as I've had a little success with them before.

Well done on the spelling, if that was you. 23 BBY in GrS is Year 12, and the 'In metres' thing is still there.

I can see a couple of minor faults, but this is most certainly acceptable. Officers are usually volunteers, and would have a surname as well as a forename or nickname. There's a good Star Wars name generator I know of and often use.

Eye Colour: Black
Appearance: Facial (http://www.istockphoto.com/file_thumbview_approve/243684/2/istockphoto_243684_why.jpg)
Language(s): Galactic Basic
History: Born into a lower class family, non-descript servants to a board-member of a powerful corperation, he had few options before him. He took up with a gang of thieves and general miscreants and ran with them for three years till a botched speeder-jacking lead to him being dragged before the courts. He was given two options, death or joining the army. As many young men before him had done, he enrolled.

Going through the gruelling training that lead to produce the Imperial Stormtrooper, it was found that he was a natural with the bigger guns and better than he had any right to be with the T-21. Since he was naturally skilled with them, he was earmarked as a HWP and with the rise of rebels he could shot, he couldn't be happier.

Ah, mis-communicated, he's suppose to be 19 years of age at the beginning of the Rp, depending on when the actual Rp is suppose to start(ie: At the Battle of Yavin) then he'd be born at Date X, if it starts earlier, he'd be born at Date Y.

A chance to be a member of the 501st? I'm interested. Just give me a little while to figure out my character details.

Name/Designation: CT-75/65-8109, (later TK-75/65-8109) although has been given the informal name 'Elix'. Mostly commonly called Sergeant or simply Elix
Rank: Sergeant
Date of Birth: Born in 32 BBY, therefore Year 3
Homeworld: Kamino
Height: 1.83m
Hair Colour: Black
Eye Colour: Brown
Appearance: Normal Face (http://www.elguaitador.com/starwars/jango_fett.jpg), During Clone Wars (http://starwars.wikia.com/images/8/8a/501.jpg),During Galactic Civil War (http://starwars.carrotnetwork.com/reviews/votc/stormtrooper/18.jpg)
Language(s): Galactic Basic, Mandoa'a, Huttese
History: Born in one of the first batches of clones grown from Jango's DNA, Elix was, in many ways, the perfect clone. Throughout training, he excelled in many subjects, and never gave his trainers cause to worry. With the outbreak of the Clone Wars in 22 BBY, he served as a member of the 501st Legion, which gained renown throughout the war on numerous fronts. Of course, this meant he served on Geonosis, but also later served on Mygeeto, Jabiim and a number of the Outer Rim seiges. It was during the war that he acquired his knowledge of Huttese

Of course, in the closing days of the Clone Wars, under Darth Vader, he partook in Order 66, and was among those clones who attacked the Jedi Temple in 19 BBY. He was among the clones who had a run in with a young Jedi Padawan on the landing pad of Bail Organa, attempting to shoot the Senator down before being ordered to stand down by CT-0000/1010 ('Fox'), after their Commander, CC 1119, also known as Commander Appo, was injured before the Padawan could be removed as an obstacle.

Elix held some private worries with regard to the war, and was among a number of clones who did not entirely agree with Order 66. However, like almost all of his companions, he eventually did his duty to the Empire. Having spent time in service to the Republic and the Empire during the transitional period, he is versed in pre-Imperial weaponry such as the DC-17 and DC-15, and has at times criticised the E-11 for it's inaccuracy. Only a solider of such great expierence has been permitted to do so, and even then, it is hushed up. He's also been passed over for promotion because of it, but this doesn't make him bitter. He knows that, irregardless of what others may say, he has more combat expierence on more worlds than all of these men, including his immediate superior.

Despite his reservations about Order 66 and the Jedi Purge, he is loyal to the Empire and the Emperor... he doesn't know any better. There are rumours that he underwent ARC training during some time spent around them, as well as training with the clone commandoes, but whenever he's asked, his response is the same,"Even if I did, it wouldn't make a difference to what I am today."

EDIT: Added history.

Name/Designation: Kal Keller, TK-54/93-8454 'Graul'
Rank: Staff Sergeant
Date of Birth: 2 BrS
Homeworld: Nar Shaddaa
Height: 1.91m
Hair Colour: Brown
Eye Colour: Green
Appearance: Face (http://www.cinemania.hu/admin/hirek/292/jason_statham_160.jpg) Galactic Civil War, finding some crap on the ground (http://www.geocities.com/Area51/Corridor/4136/Looksir.jpg).
Language(s): Galactic Basic, Huttese, Rodese
History: Born a slave on Nar Shaddaa, Keller never knew his father. His mother died in Year 5 after accidentally overdosing on death sticks supplied by a slythmonger with links to the Bando Gora. Keller, then aged seven, spent several weeks tracking the man before catching up with him in a slum alley beneath the kilometre-high towers of Nar Shaddaa. The young Kal managed to get the drop on the dealer, ramming a shiv into his lower abdomen and ripping upwards.

Keller spent twelve more years on Nar Shaddaa, working as a minor bounty hunter in his later years for several criminal organisations at the same time, depending on his personal interests. After Black Sun thugs nearly killed him in Year 19 for his double-dealings, Keller decided it was time to make his way off the Smuggler's Moon. He volunteered with the first Imperial recruiting unit he found, and after proving his willingness by blasting a surprised bystander, Keller entered into the 41st Legion of the Imperial Stormtrooper Corps.

TK-54/93-8454, as Keller was designated, proved a deadly and dedicated trooper, even among the fanatical soldiers of the Corps. Enthusiastic and capable in combat, unconventional - yet successful - in his tactics, inspiring in his leadership and serving loyally in several campaigns, Keller was promoted to the rank of Corporal in Year 22, and Sergeant in '31. He became a Staff Sergeant in '34, and was transferred to the elite 501st Legion under Darth Vader...

Welians. Please read, again or for the first time, the italic text in the first post on this thread, and make the effort to work out the damn date. We are going to two decimal places on height (Psychotika, take note), and if possible we will provide pictures in the appearance section. Of course your character is youthful and strong, he is a twenty year-old member of a professional military organisation. Also, Welians, please use a spellcheck function before posting IC, or just re-read your text. And of course we are not doing a God-damned FPS.

Psychotika. Do you mean that you do not understand the date system either, or that your character's age is unknown? If the latter, please list it as 'Unknown'.

Ansuria

Pick any number. The trooper type is designated by the 'TK', though for stormtroopers I'm not sure whether there are actually any others.

Bearing in mind that the Empire is counted in millions of worlds, trillions of citizens and billions of military personnel, their individual designation numbers are very long.

I am aware of the "...though the 501st itself remained pure..." quote from Battlefront 2, yet it wouldn't be much of a rp if everyone was forced to be a clone. Also, not every single stormtrooper in the Original Trilogy was 1.83m tall, yet the 501st featured prominently in the battles of Yavin, Hoth and Endor.

Assume that the rule was revoked.

Name/Designation:TK-74/23-9422 ‘Spark’
Rank: Private
Date of Birth: 26
Homeworld: Kamino
Height: 1.82
Hair Colour: Dark
Eye Colour: Blue
Appearance: Picture here! (http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c151/Joocecaeks/One_photo__by_Sjoeman.jpg)
Language(s): Basic (All I feel like filling in right now, sorry. He'll be the translator, so he'll know most.)
History:
Born after the Clone Rebellion 'Spark' was created from unique DNA. He was watched closely, as were most clones after the rebellion, but gave no one any reason to suspect him to be anything but a loyal patriot.

He went through training easily, the favorite of the instructors who considered him 'simply brilliant'. Spending his freetime in libraries, he built on his standard training, picking up multiple languages from around the Galaxy with suprising ease.

Considered 'officer material' by most, he recently entered the 501st Legion, and has quickly discovered the difference between combat sims and the real thing.

Name/Designation: Hal Semko 'Phoenix'
Rank: Flight Lieutenant (Navy rank) Captain (Army Equivalent)
Date of Birth: 3 BrS
Homeworld: Corellia
Height: 1.84 meters
Hair Color: Brown
Eye Color: Green
Appearance: http://img247.imageshack.us/img247/1285/ourarmor244al.jpg, or http://www.starwars-tw.com/story/character/dark/clone/arc-pilot.jpg
Language(s): Galactic basic, Durosian
History: Semko was a graduate of the Military Academy on cardia and a native corellian. He started his career as a star fighter pilot and earned many awards for his skill’s, such as the corellian blood stripes (Han solo has them going down his pants). He was transferred to the 501st after his squadron was devastated leaving him as the sole survivor.

Semko is an expert pilot in many vehicles and often serves as the driver for any vehicles used in his squad. Semko uses the E-11 carbine and a DL-44 pistol. Technically semko is still part of the imperial/republic navy and the standard tie fighter armor/clone pilot armor is his uniform.

It is against standing imperial doctrine for members of the imperial navy to serve as anything higher than second in command of a unit. Even if they are a higher rank.

((ooc: The last part may not be cannon but I think it would be better if a real storm trooper was in charge of the unit.))

During the Republic: http://i110.photobucket.com/albums/n99/Lylybium/OM.jpg- I did this myself!!
OM's Armour is moderatly modified from what was originally issued to him. Most evident of these modifications is the colouring of his Armour. His Helmet, Breastplate and Shoulder Armour are maked Magenta and Gold. The base colour is also slightly darker than the stark white offered to most clone troopers.
Less obvious are the Advanced Comlink w/ greater range and the presence of magnetic footsoles and fingertips.

During the Empire:
OM rarely wears his armour in during the Imperial Reign. His Armour is the basic model with the addition of magenta markings on the Hemlmet, Shoulder and Leggings. This Armour also has advanced ComLinks with displays mounted on the left arm.

Heard of you before, Ost. Good feedback.

Equipment for Stormtrooper officers in the field is identical to troopers, as evidenced by the Stormtrooper Captain in the head of Blizzard 1 during the Battle of Hoth. The black-uniformed officers in A New Hope were also Stormtroopers, though in dress uniform instead.

TK? Too Kool or something else? If TK does mean Too Kool, then I assume your refering to my drawing, in which case, yes I agree.

TK is the designation for a Stormtrooper. Write your designation as TK-##/##-####, with every # being a number. Use the des' you already have as the last four numbers (Can be between three and five or so).

Officers are volunteers, and as far as I can tell, don't use designations. Unless of course, they're Stormtrooper officers, which I just remembered yours is.

Just use TK-##/##-####, with each dash as a random number. Date of birth... Current year is Year 35, just pick something about Year 10 or 11, for a young officer.

Name/Designation:Jorran Kel [TK-88/95-6509]

Rank: Private, First Class (or equivalent)

Date of Birth: Year 14

Homeworld: Commenor

Height: 1.8

Hair Colour: Black

Eye Colour: Dark Green/Hazel

Appearance: Jorran is a slender young man with the build of a runner: lean, tough, and strong. He is incredibly fit as he he has gone through basic training. If Basic you either get fit or you collapse. His normally black hair has been shaved bald, although stubble pops up every few days and he has to shave it again. His eyes are piercing and dark, but they have a spark of warmth in them. He walks erect, like anyone who has been through military training would and bears himself proudly. He is loyal, proud to serve the Empire.

Language(s): Galactic Basic

History: Jorran is the first of a new breed of stromtroopers: volunteers and conscripts recruited into the military and the Empire's war machine.

He was born to a working class family on Commenor in Year 14. He grew up in the beginnings of the Empire and was bombarded with propoganda. As he grew up he decided he wanted to do something besides be a worker in the factories or a laborer. He wanted to see the Galaxy. He was intelligent and diligently applied to the academy, hoping he would be accepted. He was.

However, he wa transferred almost immediately to Carida as a prime candidate for stormtrooper training. There he spent over a year training and preparing for deployment. He excelled, coming in the top ten per cent of his class. As a reward he was promoted to PFC and appointed to the Five-Oh-First Legion (aka Vader's Fist).

Now he lives to fight for the Empire. He is loyal, almost to a fault. However, his humanity has remained intact. Will this come into conflict with his sense of duty and loyalty later on? Only time will tell.
