OOC: Star Wars RP Follow-up (Discussion/Signup)
New Geneticon
09-02-2007, 16:56
So me and DMG have been talking and we decided to set up an RP which follows up Francas in the Force: The Orb of Forever. (http://forums.jolt.co.uk/showthread.php?t=462342) Francas was a fantastic roleplay with a great set of players, and I would love for the follow-up to be similiar to some extent.
TMM (The Metal Man) will not be used unless the original creator of him (I believe it was Dastardly... but I'm probably wrong) decides to join in this role-play.
Miriam, Jenghis, and the rest are all moving on. The only three key players from the last RP will be Liam and Jacen and Shasta.
Liam... a Master with amazing power in the neutral side of the force. Jacen... a Jedi Knight who kind of turned bad... then decided to go neutral. He is headstrong and moody, as well as being fairly powerful. Shasta... a Jedi Knight with conviction and service to the Order.
Liam and Jacen joined forces in the final sequence of Fracas, and afterwards Liam began to train Jacen in the further arts of the force. This RP takes place years later.
So here is the plot in a nutshell:
Jacen and Liam are on some rogue planet training. Terrorist activity has been taking place in the recent happenings on Coruscant. Mostly bombs... and few random killings. Someone anonymously drops Liam a line that notifies him they have a lead on the killers. They also let him know that the terrorists have a nuclear weapon (or a few), as well as an important captive (Shasta... though they won't know that yet).
Liam and Jacen take chase, and off we go. Ultimately the terrorist will be a Bounty Hunter similiar to Boba Fett... who is actually working under a Sith organization... the same group that killed Jacen's parents (which he will learn during the story).
Below you will see the groups of characters that we have. [Closed] indicates that the group is closed to membership. [Open, #] indicates that the group is open and the number of charries we are looking for/would accept.
------------------
Some basic (or not so basic) Rules that come to mind... or have simply been asked about:
-Please only one character per player. Shasta is the only exception because she's carrying over from Fracas...
-You can have a ship for your character... but it can't be overpowerful and technically shouldn't be armed very much.
-No lightwhips besides Liam's and no cortosis swords whatsoever.
-No Godmodding obviously.
-The creators of this RP (DMG and myself) make the final decisions on things... especially relating to the plot.
-The Force is nearly all powerful... no super people who can run faster or jump higher or do anything better than a force user.
-No real SW characters allowed to be played... or even mentioned in the RP for that matter. The time period happens way after Anakin... the Council is like his time and the Republic is in place. The Sith exist as a small hidden user.
-Liam and Jacen have the most power (dueling and the force) in the RP... they are the most trained and will typically win the battle as long as they are on even footing with their opponent. The goal of this RP is to have them suceed (or atleast survive) in the end.
-Be realistic within the SW universe. No coming back to life and no surviving something that Anakin or Obi-Wan couldn't survive.
-No "super-de-duper" force powers... (AKA freezing time, immortality, omnipotence, omniscience, or anything else that starts with omni) unless you ask and are granted permission by DMG or myself.

Sweet.
TMM was Dastardly...I was checking out the thread.
Name: Yuvan Udonis
Sex: Male
Species: Human
Age: 26
Planet of Origin: Uma-Kiin
Allegiance: Sith
Physical Description: 6'2", medium-tan skin, light brown eye color, brown hair, muscular build
Weapon of Preference: Czerka CX-9 Dual Heavy Blaster Pistols
Secondary Weapons of Preference: Outland Slugthrower Rifle
Attire: Czerka Heavy Exoskeletan Armor w/Rocket Pack. Armor equipped with built-in whipcord and rocket dart launcher.
Background: Udonis was an orphan at the age of 3, when pirates on his homeworld of Uma-Kiin killed both his parents on a raid of his lava-island village. He was the sole survivor, and fell into the care of a mercenary. Growing up, Udonis shunned affection and passion, instead honing survival tactics, physical strength and attributes, and mental focus and concentration. When Udonis's surrogate father, who had taught him all his skills and been his father figure, was killed by a pirate band at Udonis's age of 18, the orphan became a mercenary as well, determined to carry his 'father's' career into the next generation. He became a for-hire gun for Czerka corporation on tracking down creditors who had defaulted for the corrupt company.
While working for Czerka at age 21 Udonis became romantically entangled with a young women from Brentaal named Corta Vestal. After the relationship lasted 4 years, pirates raided the Ithorian-run orbital station that Udonis and Vestal were on. Udonis escaped the carnage, but Vestal had disappeared-for Udonis, permanently. To the present, the two had never met again, torn apart by the pirate attack.
Devestated by his second close relationship destroyed by pirates, at age 25 Udonis focused his burning anger and loss into the service of a mysterious Sith Lord who promised order rather than chaos. Though he maintains his status as a bounty hunter for the mysterious Sith Lord, Udonis has a strong emotional side-though he also has a sturdy head for practicality, and more recently, vindication.
After serving Czerka for so many years, Udonis has become very attached to Czerka's product line, particularly in the weapons area.
Other question: Can I create a ship for this character (he's a bounty hunter, after all)?

Ok, here it is:
Name: Alterin Zalitorai (Darth Ieltarion)
Species: Ezaltian (similar to Selonians, but bigger and meaner)
Age: 29
Affiliation: Sith
Homeworld: Coruscant
Physical Description: about 7.5 feet tall, thin but tightly muscled, dark gray fur, cool red Sith eyes
Primary Weapon: double-bladed lightsaber (one side silver, the other red)
Secondary Weapon: the Force
Force affinity: TK, jump, speed
Attire: dark grey and black clothing, with padded armor on legs and chest, black cloak, barefoot
Vehicle of Choice: Scimitar II-class Infiltrator (Nightwing)
Background: Born to a dying mother on the doorstep of a wealthy Senator, Alterin was raised by Ryo Felari, a Senator from Corellia. He enjoyed a priveliged upbringing, until Ryo was killed by anarchist gangsters when Alterin was only 19. Within days, the crime boss was dead at Alterin's feet. For the next few years, Alterin worked as an assassin, striving to bring order the chaotic Underlevels. Eventually, he left Coruscant, following the Force to a small planet on the Outer Rim. He was trained there by the last living member of the Sith, Darth Reiniar. Alterin trained under Reiniar for two years, constructing a red lightsaber and following his master's promises of restoring order to the galaxy. When Reiniar was killed by pirates as they traveled to the ruins of Byss, Alterin took the crystals from his master's silver lightsaber and constructed an extension to his. Now he stalks the shadows, looking for any subtle way to bring law and order to the galaxy.
Tactics: Ieltarion typically cloaks his ship and follows his enemy closely before unleashing a burst of accurate laser fire to destroy their engines and communications systems. He then destroys their ship peice by peice.
On land, Ieltarion relies mostly on his own skills rather than the Force, only using it to complement his style. He attacks straight-on and overwhelms his opponents with lightning-fast slashes and spins, using walls and pillars to his advantage (i.e.: running up them and flipping to get behind them).

I'll take Amazonian Beasts suggestion.
Name: Telsa Arakra
Sex: Female
Species: Human
Age: 24
Planet of Origin: Panthera
Allegiance: Sith
Physical Description: 5'11", pale skin, blue eyes, black hair, slender build
Weapon of Preference: Stouker Concussion Rifle
Secondary Weapons of Preference: DC-15A Blaster Rifle, DT-57 Blaster, Vibroblade
Attire: Black mesh armor, black skullcap
Background: Telsa was born in slum on Corellia, and brought up in a foster home for troubled youth. Her parents are unknown. Throughout her life, she has been in and out of trouble. She was arrested several times as a youth, for offenses ranging from vandalism, prostitution, drug running, and assault.
At age 19, she took her first contract kill. While it was technically a success, the murder infuriated the mark's brother, a captain of a crime syndicate. True to form, she escaped the gang, and stole a small freighter, getting offworld and as far away from the Corellian system as possible.
Along the way, she ran across some Trandoshan bounty hunters, who taught her the trade. After several years, they parted ways amiably, and she struck out on her own. However, after several jobs gone bad, Telsa has gone into debt, and turned desperate. She made the mistake of taking a contract on a Sith Lord. Despite her predicted failure, the Sith Lord spared her life, seeing that she could be a powerful asset in return for her patronage.
While Telsa is frightened of the Sith Lord and his possible plans, and has no genuine desire for him to gain power, she remains loyal to the Sith, because of
his pay and protection.
Good?

Ah, never mind-got my answer from the Sith bio.
Here's Udonis's ship.
Name: Shattered Faith
Class: Custom Xi Char built Patrol/Attack Craft
Manufacturer: Xi Char
Length: 14.3 (at longest point)
Width: 21.4 m (Top Wingtip to Wingtip)
Height: 26.3 m
Max Speed: 76 MGLT (Space), 1075 km/h (atm)
Hyperdrive: Class 1 (Backup class 7)
Shielding: 2 KDY overlapping Ray/Particle Shield Generators (equipped with emergency backup as well, half-strength)
Cargo Capacity: 46 Metric Tons
Crew: 2 (Usually Udonis and his modified assassin/protocol/pilot LOM series droid, LOA7)
Passengers: 5 (One force cage equipped inside vessel for containing force-capable prisoners)(excludes Udonis's R4 Astromech Droid, R4-E2)
Consumbles: 6 weeks stock
Sensors: Fabritech Military-grade Sensor Suite
Propulsion Systems: 4 Upgraded SoroSuub Boav Ion Drive Engines
Power Systems: 3 X-F-16 Power Generators
Countermeasure Systems: 1 aft chaff/flare launcher, Sensor Masking and Jamming Suite, Frontal Escape Pod
Weapon Systems: 1 Rear Krupx Void-7 Seismic Charge Minelayer/Projector (10) [compatible as well with Proton Bombs (5), free-falling thermal detonators (18)], Two rapid-fire frontal Taim & Bak laser cannons, 1 rapid-fire rear Koyenser Triple-barrel Auto-blaster, 1 frontal Krupx Proton Torpedo Launcher (4 Torpedoes), 1 frontal KDY Ion Cannon, 1 frontal KDY Concussion Missile Launcher (6 Missiles)
Security Systems: Energy-field generator providing emitters at both ends of passenger compartment, gas emitters, entrance-located retractable stun blaster
Description: Haor-Chall reminiscint design. Double top-mounted, out-slanted wings (each containing a laser cannon at wing base) leading down to a rounded-cylindrical command pod (where the Faith reaches its longest point). Pod contains most command functions and targeting/navigation systems. Also contains crew stations and passenger areas.
Pod extends down into two sections. Rear section forms a thick (large enough to allow astromech and human-accessibility) pentagonal form that rounds off at the bottom. Contains storage areas and heavy engine/power stations, including hyperdrive. Rounded section at bottom contains entrance to ship via extendable ramp. Entrance Frontal section forms a somewhat narrower triangular section narrowing down to a point. Contains weapon control systems and additional forward power conduits. Also contains limited storage abilities.
For landing, ship twists to its rear section and lands on struts beside the engine cluster.
(OOC: Mix the Guardian Mantis with the Slave I)
Background: The Shattered Faith is a relatively new ship, only eighteen months old. It came as an idea after Udonis lost his old ship, the modified DeepWater-class freighter Freezing Touch. Looking for something "unique", Udonis went directly to Chellis IV to contract the fanatical insectoid to construct a patrol/attack craft to be his next vehicle of operations. Combining the best ideas, the Xi Char developed the Shattered Faith to meet all of Udonis's design specifications-a fast (remarkable for its size, due to its heavy engine pods), well-armed, smallish ship that was multi-roled. The only downside happened to be its price-Udonis paid nearly his entire worth for the craft. However, he soon recouped, as the Faith allowed him to quickly make up by taking in some worthy bounties.
Since its inception, Udonis has felt a certain affection for the advanced craft. It has saved him time and again from untimely death, and has become a constant to his life where frequently there has been none.

You don't have to change much, just say that his girlfriend was killed by the Vong and he joined Ieltarion because they both wanted revenge. I assume you've read at least a bit of the New Jedi Order?

Ok, here it is:
Name: Alterin Zalitorai (Darth Ieltarion)
Species: Selonian (http://www.starwars.com/databank/species/selonian/index.html)
Age: 29
Affiliation: Sith
Homeworld: Coruscant
Physical Description: about 7 feet tall, thin but tightly muscled, dark gray fur, cool red Sith eyes
Primary Weapon: double-bladed lightsaber (one side blue, the other red)
Secondary Weapon: Cortosis sword, lightwhip, the Force
Force affinity: TK, jump, speed
Attire: dark grey and black clothing, with padded armor on legs and chest, black cloak, barefoot
Vehicle of Choice: Scimitar II-class Infiltrator (Nightwing)
Background: Born to a dying mother on the doorstep of a wealthy Senator, Alterin was raised by Ryo Felari, a Senator from Corellia. He was 19 when the Yuuzhan Vong killed Ryo while invading Coruscant. Filled with hate, Alterin killed an entire battalion of Vong using only a vibrosword and lightning. He escaped on a stolen A-Wing and jumped blindly into hyperspace to avoid a Vong battleship, and eventually crash-landed on Uldaria, a small planet on the Outer Rim. He survived there for a few months before his strong Force presence was detected by a unknown Sith Lord. Alterin's training was brief before the Vong found his master and killed him. Alterin, now Ieltarion, used the Force to sandwich a worldship between two small moons, destroying it and killing countless Vong. Even though the Galactic Alliance and the Yuuzhan Vong are at peace now, he still stalks Vong armadas, eager for any chance to avenge the only two people he loved.
Tactics: Ieltarion typically cloaks his ship and follows his enemy closely before unleashing a burst of accurate laser fire to destroy their engines and communications systems. He then destroys their ship peice by peice.
On land, Ieltarion relies mostly on his own skills rather than the Force, only using it to complement his style. He attacks straight-on and overwhelms his opponents with lightning-fast slashes and spins, using walls and pillars to his advantage (i.e.: running up them and flipping to get behind them).
Acceptable... but I'm gonna have to ask you to drop the lightwhip and cortosis sword...

Yes... I do!
Shasta is leverage.
The Sith/Bounty Hunters know that Jacen/Liam will probably come after them, and thus they grabbed Shasta... knowing that she has a past with Liam/Jacen.
Plus... there's more... but I don't quite feel like revealing it yet. :)
BTW... since it was asked... we're not really following any specific time period. If you read Francas you would see that we were all over the place. The Council/Jedi is as it was in the days of Anakin, the Sith are mostly in hiding, bounty hunters roam with ease, and neutral force users are semi-common.
Acceptable... but I'm gonna have to ask you to drop the lightwhip and cortosis sword...

All right, it'd be kinda awkward carrying a sword everywhere anyway.
Hey, cool to see this up and going. I've been sick and so I just got back on NS after a couple days (though I am still sick).
I just wanted to add/clarify a couple of things.
(It's called Fracas, not Francas :p)
I'm not going to be reposting Liam's true bio (as Genet already posted the one from the last RP). If you want to see a more in depth and descriptive bio as well as a picture of him, you can go to my MT Factbook and look at it (but don't you dare post in it). Also, if anyone is playing a Jedi character, it is possible to know of Liam, but contact me first as I will have to explain something to you.
Ezaltia, the one thing I am concerned about is the whole thing with the Vong. I am hesistant to have had the Vong attack recently as that would dramatically change the scope of the galaxy (read: it would be in tatters and the Order decimated).

Age: 33
Homeworld: Iridonia
Allegiance: Jedi
Primary weapon: Yellow lightsaber
Secondary weapon: The force
Physical Description: 6 feet tall, long black hair, black eyes.
Attire: jedi robes.
Background: Jodo Rann was discovered by the jedi on his home world of iridonia at the late age of 8. Nevertheless, he was taken to Yavin 4 for training as a jedi. During his training, his parents were killed by smugglers. Rann was always haunted by their deaths because he felt he would have been able to save them. Rann became a different man, severely depressed and pessimistic. He is not the most trusted jedi in the order because of brushes with the dark side he had after his parents died, and his cynical views. He has few friends and likes it that way. Most recently he has been in corusant investigating the terrorist strikes but making little headway.
Is this alright?

Ezaltia, it'd probaly fit the personality of a bounty hunter more if I was hired-since Udonis's basic profile is a "world is out to get me-I'm for myself first" kinda thing, since he's been crushed twice in close relations.
Wait we get to chose our own characters?
I see. Should I make my character older? I really have no idea how long Selonians live.
I am concerned about any mention of the Vong. We intentionally left them out of the previous one as they completely warp the SW Universe. I'm afriad unless it has been several hundred years, the Vong's effects would still be noticable - and screw with the RP.
Genet?
Wait we get to chose our own characters?

name: Jodo Rann
Sex: Male
Species: Zabrak
Age: 33
Homeworld: Iridonia
Allegiance: Jedi
Primary weapon: Yellow lightsaber
Secondary weapon: The force
Physical Description: 6 feet tall, long black hair, black eyes.
Attire: jedi robes.
Background: Jodo Rann was discovered by the jedi on his home world of iridonia at the late age of 8. Nevertheless, he was taken to Yavin 4 for training as a jedi. During the Yuuzhan Vong invasion, Rann led republic forces against the invaders. However, after the war, Rann returned a different man, severely depressed and pessimistic. He is not the most trusted jedi in the order because of brushes with the dark side during the war and his cynical views. He has few friends and likes it that way. Most recently he has been in corusant investigating the terrorist strikes but making little headway.
Is this alright?
Yep... fine! Welcome...

Hey, cool to see this up and going. I've been sick and so I just got back on NS after a couple days (though I am still sick).
I just wanted to add/clarify a couple of things.
(It's called Fracas, not Francas :p)
I'm not going to be reposting Liam's true bio (as Genet already posted the one from the last RP). If you want to see a more in depth and descriptive bio as well as a picture of him, you can go to my MT Factbook and look at it (but don't you dare post in it). Also, if anyone is playing a Jedi character, it is possible to know of Liam, but contact me first as I will have to explain something to you.
Ezaltia, the one thing I am concerned about is the whole thing with the Vong. I am hesistant to have had the Vong attack recently as that would dramatically change the scope of the galaxy (read: it would be in tatters and the Order decimated).
Ok... sweet...
Jedi will possibly know Liam, and will have heard of Jacen through a former Jedi named Kly P'do. But sadly you won't really know where we are...
Create, yes.
Sweet I've always wanted to do a Star Wars RP. Is there a limit on Characters? Cause I'd like to make two

Sorry... I'd prefer that you keep just one character.
The only reason why I have two is that this is carrying over from Fracas... and I know my characters better than most.
well okay then, I've figured the perfect way to reduce my two characters down to one. *Starts to work on Profile*

Her young student was eager and full of energy. However one day during a training mission on Coular Peen IV, both were ambushed by an unknown army (Poissbily freelance Sith workers or bounty hunters working for the Sith) both fought off the best they could, however Chikane's young apprentice was captured, and Chikane could not stop them. She constantly is haunted by the memory of her lost apprentice. She hopes she is still alive and contiues to search for her but isn't sure if she's alive.

Name: Darth Rauntis
Sex: Male
Species: Trandoshan
Age: Mid-thirties
Planet of Origin: Trandosha
Allegiance: Sith
Primary Weapon: Lightsaber [Purple]
Secondary Weapon: The Force
Description: Standing at 6'7 and sporting massive arms of scale and muscle, there is little question that Darth Rauntis is a force to be reckoned with. Like most other Trandoshans, Darth Rauntis' skin is tough and layered in thick green scales, the product of his reptilian ancestry. His eyes are a sickly yellow, dotted with black slits for pupils, and his heavy jaw serves home to rows of sharp, piercing teeth. Where he differs from most of his Sith contemporaries is in his apparel, as he chooses the traditional warrior garb of his culture rather than the cloak and dagger style of his peers. Despite the Sith's urgent need of anonymity (especially in times when Jedi aren't so uncommon anymore), Rauntis wears his wookie scalps like a badge of honor, amidst a flowing purple cloak and bits of armor. He is the epitome of what a Sith should look like; dark, dangerous, and extremely violent.
Background: Apparently born from obscurity, it is largely a mystery as to how Rauntis came to be a student of the Dark Side. His history is a sore subject with him, one that remains to be breached, and he seemingly prefers to live in the present rather than the past. What is known is that Rauntis is repulsively violent, often resorting to torture and disfiguration when neither are required. For someone of such power and skill he is recklessly barbaric, even described as primitive by some. He chooses death and war above any other alternatives, a way of life that may end in his demise if he's not careful. Self-destructive, impatient, easily angered, and a practitioner of force over tactics, Rauntis' bloodthirst should not be underestimated. His lack of tactics and preference for battle may be clumsy, but it has been rather effective thus far.
Got room for another villain type?
Player: Kilani
Name: Kelath Akturos
Species: Human
Affiliation: Sith
Homeworld: Commenor
Physical Description: Kelath is deceptively average looking, only about 5'10" and not very physically imposing. Rather, he is built like a runner, long-limbed, slender and fit. His eyes are a pale blue, with a piercing stare. His hair is dark, cut short and kept out of eyes. His face is filled with angel,s his high cheekbones and narrow face giving him a predatory look. He is also pale, as if he has not spent enough time in the sun. The oddest thing about him is that he generally has a soft smile, as if amused of quietly pleased, on his face. Dressed in civilian clothes, however, most people wouldn't give him a second glance.
Primary Weapon: Single-bladed red lightsaber.
Secondary Weapon: The Force, blaster
Force Specialities: Telekenesis, Mind Trick
Other Force Powers: Force Lightning, Absorb Energy, Speed
Attire: In order to throw his opponents into confusion about his identity he wears brightly colored clothing. In this case, a pair of black trousers with a solid crimson stripe down the outside seam, bloused into his black leather boots, a white long-sleeve shirt, a gunbelt, adorned with various useful items, including his lightsaber and a short, dark green jacket with bright gold trim.

Name: Queen of Coins (Commonly refered to as The Queen)
Class: YG-4210 Light Freighter [heavily customized]
Manufacturer: Corellian Engineering Corporation
Length: 26 meters
Width: 10 meters, approximately
Height: 8 meters, approximately
Acceleration: 56 MGLT
Max Speed (atmosphere): 1025 km/h
Hyperdrive: Class 1/Class 8 (back-up)
Shielding: 1 KDY Ray/Particle Shield Generator
Cargo Capacity: 25 metric tons
Crew: 2 for combat readiness, 4 optimally, plus astromech. Copilot was recently slain.
Passengers: 12. One force cage provided by Darth Ieltarion
Consumbles: 8 months
Sensors: Fabritech LongView-382.X long-range sensor array
Propulsion Systems: 3 High-Performance Ion Engines
Power Systems: Mason-Branger 7065 ionization reactor and regulator
Countermeasure Systems: Vanish 2 military sensor masking system, ventral escape pod
Weapon Systems: 2 Arakyd ST4 Concussion missile launchers, Two CEC LC-24 laser cannons, 1 dorsal CEC LT-23 laser cannon (in a turret), 1 ventral SW-7 Ion Cannon, 1 aft MG7-A torpedo launcher, 20 concussion missiles, 5 torpedoes
Security Systems: Ventral anti-personnel repeating blaster.
Description:
http://images.wikia.com/starwars/images/thumb/b/b7/YG-4210.jpg/300px-YG-4210.jpg
The Queen has a streamlined, swept-back profile. No wings or outcroppings, except for the turrets and sensor dish. Dorsal cannon was added in the midsection, where the command/cargo section meet the engines. Ventral turret is in the same spot, on the other side of the ship. Missile launchers are located around the cockpit, and forward laser cannons are on the chin. The aft torpedo launcher is located on the ventral side of the engine mount. Piloting, navigation, and weapons systems are located near the bow of the ship. Behind this are the cargo hold and passenger areas. Further back is a small corridor that leads to engineering. There is an entrance/exit ramp in the cargo hold, in addition to an airlock on each side of the ship. The sole escape pod is mounted in a divot near the ventral ion cannon.
Background: The Queen of Coins is an ancient ship, commissioned long before the Battle of Yavin, made even before Corellian Engineering came out with its famed YT series. Telsa stole it during her escape from Corellia, when it was a rusting hulk named Jacen's Dream on a used ship lot. After years of work and pouring the profits from many contracts into it, the old, reliable freighter became a dangerous vessel worthy of being used by a serious bounty hunter. The slow, unarmed, unshielded, and nearly blind freighter is now a fast, powerful, well-armoured and shielded warship. The old vessel has proved her worth, time and again. Telsa has a strong connection with the vessel, and has, on occasion, been her sole motivation to work, so she could make the Queen "just a bit better".

Can't be mine as it is beyond isolationist. However, I am hapy to incorporate any other's. The one I don't like about that idea Amazonian is that it would increase the number of Sith. I believe there are only supposed to be a few at the most in existence, sort of like pre-Empire SW.

Powerplant: DVX-99 engines, Class 0.5 hyperdrive (a bit slower than the Milennium Falcon)
Max speed: 5,000G (a bit slower than an A-wing)
Armament:
6x high-powered laser cannons
2x concussion missile lauchers (6 missiles each)
2x ion cannon
History: Ieltarion's vessel was custom-built by Seinar Technologies, the company responsible for the Darth Maul's Infiltrator and the legendary TIE fighter series. The Nightwing is based off Maul's Infiltrator, with a few modifications. the original low-profile blaster cannons were scrapped in favor of six high-powered lasers, slaved to a laser-sighting system similar to that of Xizor's Virago. Concussion missiles and ion cannons complete the weapons package.
The engines were replaced with miniature versions of those on the A-wing, and the deflector sheilds were also strengthened. The cloaking system is identical to Maul's ship. The Nightwing only reveals itself when firing its weapons. A powerful droid brain can control the ship when Ieltarion is away, and can come to his aid at any moment. The cargo bay in the front of the ship holds probe droids, torture devices, bombs, and Ieltarion's Mobquet Flare-S swoop bike.

Cool.
Hey Ezaltia and Amazon... If you two haven't checked your TGs... do so now. Keep in mind the amulet when you two meet.
Also, you should probably contact you associates and at least give them the slightest idea of what's going on (so we can keep this smooth... as I have no idea what any of the younger Sith and/or bounter hunters and Jedi are up to at the moment)
We need to stay with the plot.
Checked and replied.
Theoretically, couldn't i also make an amulet that proptects from the light side also?
and GTR, are you meeting me or someone else?

No... the amulet was created from the shards of a fallen Orb. The orb was extremely rare and contained the power of a former Dark Lord. You didn't really want to create it and give it to him, but you had no other option.
Unless you find the shards of an orb with light side power... (which is questionable if it even exists) you won't be able to create one.
So basically no... lol.

Replied to the TG.
As for the contacting other bounty hunters: it might actually be best if the other bounty hunter (forget her name, apologies) and Udonis haven't met yet. If that happened, it could later develop into the style of relationship that Jango Fett and Zam Wessel had, which might actually benefit both characters in development much better.
To summarize, it may be better if both bounty hunters didn't know of each other until running into each other by chance somehow.

Telsa. Her name is Telsa. (Well, its Telsa Arakra, but she doesn't like her surname)
And I was thinking the same thing (did I ever suggest that we should have a past history? I might have, but I don't remember...), but I would prefer to not be shot in the neck by Udonis.

Me, too.
Until a few minutes ago, I thought that there was a post in the IC thread where Jacen and Liam received a package containing a brain in a jar and a message from TMM.
Just went through BOTH pages of the IC thread (2 pages of IC and 9 of OOC--LOL!) and...
NOPE!!!!!
So...I edited the post I made where TMM contacts Jacen and Liam, anyway. It didn't specify where he wanted to meet them, so I added that. I added the package with a brain in a jar. I didn't take out the signature on the message. I'm going to do that next.
I didn't see the post in this thread where the package was first mentioned. I have no idea if it's serious or just a sick joke, but I'm going to run with it. It appeals to the boorish part of me. :) :) :)
BTW, I have a new job. I'm now the Assistant Editor for Light Sword Publications, a publishing house that incorporated last November. If you go to the website and click on the "About Us" page, I'm the only one with whose caricature moves.

Also, she happened by pure luck (and some arm twisting of her on my part) to pass by the Gnarly Gungan. Perhaps we can get two pursuiting groups now?
Also... Dast... to bring Jacen and Liam in, you can assume that Toole has heard about Jacen... through perhaps snooping in Shasta's past? I don't know... just thinking out loud.

She's actually not really your classic. She stood by while her child-hood lover soundly defeated her master in combat. She's broken the rules of the order fairly often. She picks and chooses her fights.
But yes, she probably would help people, though not in conventional ways. She has seen far too much action to be conventional.

Ok... so here's where I see it going from here:
-Jacen and Liam still need to get off Geneticon and head for Coruscant. They will meet with TMM there.
-Shasta is literally allowing the hunters to take her alive (remember the Darth doesn't want her dead... she's kind of useless that way :)). I suggest that you two take her up on the offer and then take off. Head for the Darth himself. Remember the interogation role.
-The Darth should be gratefully awaiting the arrival of Shasta... perhaps looking over the device.
-Chikane (sp?) should work closely with TMM and Liam/Jacen when they arrive.
-Probably no need for more than a few more posts in the lower level to wrap that up. Let's get Shasta captured with the bounty hunters escaping. That makes it easier on the plot and get's everyone involved.
-The Jedi are pretty much careless about Shasta... mainly because there's a plot inside to let her die anyways. No help coming from there.
-Toole will probably die at some point.
-Perhaps Kassay still works with TMM if he survives?
Well, as long as there's a big, epic, drawn-out lightsaber battle at the end, I'll be happy. I wonder where my apprentice has been?

Btw, Dast, LOA is Udonis's assassin droid, not the ship...the ship is the Shattered Faith
My apologies to all for delaying anything and not posting.
Life has ratcheted up once again and I have little time to post (and I have several other RPs to catch up with). My main problem at this point is that I am 3 pages behind and have little motivation. I am contemplating allowing you, Geneticon, to move Jason and Liam as one to get them and the RP moving along (I would then of course retake control of Liam).

If you want things slowed down a little, I can always introduce a semi-interesting NPC by the name of Darth Mordant, or Mordant the Merciful. He's a former student of TMM who went on to become a Sith, and he now leads an enclosed community on Coruscant. Nobody but TMM completely trusts him, but his ambition is to bring some order to the chaos on the lower levels, and he's not afraid to step on a few toes to accomplish that objective--hence, he's a natural Sith. He's not out-and-out evil, though, and this is what confuses people.
TMM would want to speak with him about unusual Sith involvement in the area. TMM would expect Mordant to be naturally unhappy with what the other Sith's hirelings did in the Gnarly Gungan. Mordant may have his own ideas, though.
I could also have someone try to rip off Amnesty--and end up taking on a roomfull of Sith and Jedi in the process. :) :) :)

My thoughts on the matter at hand:
Since we had a drop-out, I'm going to count the post where Kassay was taken as being part of the record. I'm also going to have the character killed off in a terrible accident.
They go to an appropriate planet--those who know the area better than I should decide where it is. There, they find Kassay, perfectly healthy if not very happy. They also find the female kidnapper's ship in orbit. Its reactor has blown, and it's so hot with radiaition that only TMM can survive inside it. So TMM goes in, uses the ship's emergency power to fire up its nav computer and figures out that it was headed for Murkur (sp?). Then, he chucks the thing into the nearest star so that it won't burn anybody else to death.
While this is going on, some rivals of Ieltarion show up and are about to turn Brain Jar into space dust but for the intervention of Jacen and Liam. From the battle, the heroes find out the name of the Sith who's trying to get his evil hands on Shasta.
Then, it's off to Murkur (sp?).
BTW, Kassay's sister, Nodi, is aboard Brain Jar. TMM took her on as an apprentice shortly after he hired Kassay.
All of these things are suggestions. They can be overridden or changed and I won't care. If I missed some alternate plan, I apologize for my lack of attentiveness.
Er, AB, aren't yslamiri exceedingly rare and hard to capture?

Aye, they were only found on Myrkr and only the smugglers knew how to get them... but that doesn't mean the same in this RP.
Amazonian Beasts

Granted, my ship is above Myrkr, the Ysalamiri homeworld, and the world (in this RP's sake) is a massive hub for the lowest type of people around (hutts, bounty hunters, smugglers, crime syndicates, underworld ops, etc. [outlined that in my first post at Myrkr]), than I'd assume that type could do the job pretty well.
Dast: Sounds like a pretty good plan to me. As far as my own character goes, he's experiencing a moral dilemma over whether to turn over Shasta (He will), but I haven't decided yet what path I'll send him on after he gives the Jedi to Ieltarion. I'm leaning towards his hidden conscience overriding his decisions and having him go after the Dark Lord and Shasta (granted, I'm not totally sure about that yet). I've come up with a few ideas how to do this, though it's still not definite.

Aight, thanks.

@Dast: That sounds find to me, though obviously when they get to Myrkr, Shasta and the Sith will probably be gone (not sure about the bounty hunter).

Hey guys. Sorry I haven't been around, but I'm going to go ahead and pop in, maybe get things rolling again with my character. As I see it, Telsa's handler dropping out leaves the perfect oppurtunity for my character to be reintroduced to the plot. He was, afterall, supposed to be following her. We can say that since the other bounty hunter has already captured his mark, Telsa has out-lived her use, and Darth Rauntis (that's me) disposes of her accordingly.
This could feed the other bounty hunter's moral dilemna. As soon as he turns in Shasta, Rauntis could pursue the hunter and try to eliminate him, so as to bury any traces leading back to the Sith. In the end, this would all backfire. The bounty hunter could befriend the Jedi, who in turn intercept Rauntis, there's a grand battle, and than maybe Rauntis dies after revealing Ieltarion's location (or something to that effect). If that's a bad idea, I can find another way to be reinvolved. Just throwing that out there.
Sounds like a plan, but we can leave the last bit for RPing and later discussion.

Sure, just head over to Myrkr to give Ieltrion a hand. Perhaps, after Rautis is killed, Liam and Jacen track Ieltarion back to Coruscant, and then there's a epic two-on-one lightsaber battle with 'Duel of the Fates' playing in the background.

Udonis will be sticking around Myrkr for a bit-not forever, but if TMM/Liam/Jacen go there, he'll still be there too.
@Ezaltia: Perhaps Niela would still be scared, but when surrounded by Ysalamiri, a Jedi/Sith also loses all of its ability to wield a lightsaber (well). Of course they could still kill someone with it, but a guy with a blaster would have equal chance of killing him if not greater.

Still, the lightsaber is pointed right at him. It doesn't take Force skill to turn on a switch.

Yes.
Ysalamari do not disrupt lightsaber ability I believe. They only block force using. A lightsaber is controlled by a switch I think, and dueling skill really doesn't have to do with the force.
Sounds good everyone!

You actually said that "tip of his lightsaber hilt poked out through his robes..." Not exactly in the greatest attack position.

Well of course you can "use" a lightsaber when the force is blocked - it is, after all, just a machine that manipulates energy. However, it does, I will guarantee this, affect dueling ability. Every movement of the lightsaber by a Jedi, whether while dueling or (more importantly in this case) when blocking a blaster shot, is guided by the force. Without it, they wouldn't be any better than a normal swordsman (save the part about a lightsaber being virtually weightless). Again though, more importantly, there is not a chance in hell that they could block a blaster shot (except with pure luck).
Basically, without the force, it boils down to modern times: a guy with a sowrd against a guy with access to a gun.

He turns it on and Niela is skewered. It's a moot point anyway.

Yeah, Ieltarion did the same thing that Jacen Solo did to Ben Skywalker so the latter couldn't tell anyone about Allana.

Ok... first off... it was explained many posts ago that the telepathic communication is totally seperate from the Force. Therefore, it is possible for someone to reach into the telepathic field, and not into the Force. This was carried over from my interpretation of Fracas with Jenghis... and is how we will treat it in the RP. Telepathic communication does not require the Force, it only requires telepathic training. So no.... I didn't do anything super-de-duper... :) Even if I did... I would have given myself permission after a long argument with myself. :p
Anyways...
I don't think TMM loaded our ship with anything... instead, we left our ship back at Coruscant while we went with TMM to investigate the dead hunters ship. Now we are deciding what course to take from here...
I believe the best course would be to go back to Coruscant, grab Liam's ship, and then head to Mykyr.
A) I see... interesting...
B) Depends where the ship is now. It seemed like they warped for about one post into deep space where they found that bounty hunter's ship.

I apologize.
I had thought that Jacen and Liam followed TMM to Krunt in their ship, then docked their fighters to get their little pow-wow together. That is why TMM is telling Liam and Jacen to go out and shoot back at the Sith--he is, in affect, telling them to use their fighters, in which they are very skillful and can channel the Force to help fight off their enemies.
If this is not the case, I'll have to edit the post. Please let me know.

Thanks for pointing that out. I just tried to edit the posts and found that there's some kind of system bug preventing me from doing so.
Best solution I can come up with is that there were three of 'em when Brain Jar was first hit but two more joined in shortly after. At least it doesn't break any laws of physics or anything.
As I said. Plus, both Genet's and my character have acknowledged that there were five, so it is fine.
Chikane maned the laser cannons. She blasted wildly like Luke Skywalker blasted his way through the tie fighters when they escaped the death star. "Hit!" She exclaimed as she managed. She contiuned shooting in all directions. She was shaken from her seat by a massive vibration. "What was that?!"

Unless I'm wrong, Kanami just restated the previous posts from Chikane's point of view. Brain Jar shot down one of the fighters. Kanami wrote this with Chikane at Brain Jar's guns.
It rather annoys me that Kanami can't be bothered to advance the story, in this post and the ones from Amnesty, but it's Kanami's prerogative to do this if he or she so desires.
I'd like to get the fighter thing over with--either wipe 'em out or get ahold of one of 'em and figure out who's behind this--while we're taking care of the showdown between Udonis and Rauntis. By virtue of being able to use the Force, Chikane can do things with Brain Jar's guns that TMM simply can't. Guided by the Force, her aim can be more accurate than his sensors alone could provide for. This is why I suggested that Chikane cut the bomb off of one of the fighters in a TG to Kanami. Nonetheless, this doesn't out-and-out have to happen. Liam or Jacen could always take one of 'em alive, Chikane (or Liam or Jacen) could intuit Ieteron (sp?) without actually interrogating any of them or they could all be killed.
It would be good to know how this is going to end, however, before I write more of the story.

Plain and simple... we already did.
In our last two posts.... DMG and I destroyed all of the fighters... except one.
Jacen swung up behind them all and shot them down... one got on his tail and then Liam swung in and neutralized it.
Right now we are just waiting for TMM to pull the disable fighter into the hangar. Please review the two posts directly before Kanami's first.... I think he confused the posting a bit.
