Alright, this is my first SW RPG, and I hope it dosn't die. The time setting is before Luke, Han, Leia, and all of the original trilogy characters. It is set around the time that Obi-Wan is about 15, and is padawan to Qui-Gon Jinn. --Although, for all of you people who dislike canon characters being played in RPGs, neither Qui-Gon, Obi-Wan, Yoda, Windu, or any other character will be played, only OCs. Though canon characters will be mentioned and power played by mainly me, or anyone else who needs them in the situation. But there is no full-time playing.

PLOT

The galaxy is normally in peace, save the small incedents dealt with by the Jedi each and every day, there is seldom a time on Caruscant when there is a full blown out war. But looks can be decieving, as there is a war smoldering inside the jedi temple itself. An over zealous padawan, Ziatan, becomes a jedi knight, only becuase he completed the required training, and is now considered powerful enough to become a knight. Though the council sees fit to give him this title, another padawan, Naru Kara, is gravely suspicious of the strangly gifted knight. She suspects, and senses a greater power inside of him, one that he uses without the council's knowing. And if that alone isn't scary enough, she finds that he has power enough to decieve all of the council, even the great master Yoda. Troubled, she reviews her studies, much to the surprise of her master, Tynira Mek.

Despite this, she continues to study, and cannot find anything on the type. He couln't be a sith, for the council would long have fortold that - but she truly could not find a spec of anything on any datapad she owned. She brought the matter to her master, whom was emedietly deeply troubled - the council should have caught this. She then confronted Ziatan, who then, out of cowerdous fear, took Tynira into his custody, and fled Caruscant.

From there, he fled to Endor, hiding amounst its dense forests, where, presumably, he has a hide out. And being the powerful, yet sorely cowerdous jedi that he is, he frequetly sends out bands of pirating scoundrels to Caruscant, keeping his former masters and friens from sending out scouts or troops, even.

Now, months later, while Naru is staying in the healing corters, helping, and staying with the kindly young healer, Lhira, who is not much older than Naru herself. In the meantime though, Naru meets frequently with fellow padawans and their masters, trying to get help in finding her master, despite Ziatan's rash actions agaist the jedi.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

OK! There it is! (bad plot ending, I know....) Anyway, hope you like it... and the names... I really hope I don't sound stupid. I know nothing of SW languages, so I just kinda... used random names and spelling and all...

Naru Kara: (Me)

Tynira Mek: (Valera Elenhathel)

Ziatan: (pirateoftherings)

Lhira: (Me, unless someone else would like to play her)

well ... we'll see how this goes :D I have a pilot who's been rusting in the hangar. If needed, I can also take a Jedi-related OC, such as Tynira.

charrie:
Name: Lieutenant Jasson Xereb
Homeworld: Alderaan
Species: Human
Age: 20
Appearance: Medium height, wiry build, combat fit. Dark hair, steel-blue eyes.
Dress: Pilot's, hardy and comfortable. Fireproof jumpsuit, leather flight jacket, utility belt, and flight boots.
Weapons: Two blasters, standard utility knife, Republic starfighter
Skills: A first-rate sniper, Jasson rates flying second only to target practice. He's also a crack shot with a blaster, but his first love is the RM89 laser rifle. Since childhood, he has been a student of Gaht-Nohr, the Mentranian grappling art.
Personality: Strong-willed, innovative, intelligent, and aggressive. Suspicious of strangers, and readier to find problems than to fix relationships. He has some lessons to learn.
History: Jasson was born on Alderaan, leaving to fly for the Republic in his late teens. The loss of a close childhood friend has left him prone to occasional dark moods, but he is unswervingly loyal to the cause of liberty and democracy.

Ooh.....of course you had to make this RPG just after I got off for the night....

*joins*

I'll take Padawan #1, but I don't feel like playing two characters, so he's going to need a Master.

Name: K'yahn Tol'ldar
Race: Human
Age: 17
Eye Color: Brown
Hair Color: Black
Weapon: Blue-bladed Lightsaber
Background: K'yahn has been at the Temple since he was two years old, about the same amount of time as most Padawans his age. He spends much of his time with the Healers, his natural empathy allowing him to connect much faster with living beings than most Jedi. He doesn't have much aptitude with electronics, though. Most of his experiments in that area ended up with him back in the Healing Quarters, but to get his own burns healed, not others.

I'll play Padawan 2. Is it okay if her master is Shaak Ti?

Yes, you can have a master/padawan team, and elvishjedipirate, its fine for her master to be Shaak Ti!

Sorry Aerandir! I was sitting around, bored, and the basic plot came to me, and so... I wrote it down before I lost it! :P

'Kay. Here are my characters, then. I had to adapt them slightly because they're originally from a Jedi Purge novel that I'm writing, but they'll fit in fine here, too.

Name: Valinn Sasken
Age: 18
Gender: Male
Race: Human
Affiliation: Jedi
Height: 6’0”
Appearance: Short, golden-brown hair; bright green eyes; athletic build; lower part of his left arm is a prosthetic replacement due to a childhood training accident
Personality: Quiet, reserved; would rather negotiate than fight; very serious but occasionally loosens up around his master
Weapons: Green lightsaber; adequate with a blaster when necessary
Other: Enjoys building things

Name: Regarn Ledaren
Age: 53
Gender: Male
Race: Human
Affiliation: Jedi
Height: 6’6”
Appearance: Short, black-and-gray hair; icy blue eyes; thinner build
Personality: Dry sense of humor; firm believer in trusting one's instincts- act now, plan later; can occasionally seem abrupt
Weapons: Blue lightsaber

Ok, I FINALLY got all the names up! But... I either want more people to join, or I greatly encourage those of you who currently only have one charrie to take up Ziatan, Lhira, or Tynira Mek, becuase... Currently, I'm going into it with 4 characters. :blink:

Hmm...I could theoretically take up Ziatan if you gave me a more detailed bio on him. I like having multiple characters.

Ok, I'll take Tynira. lemme see:

Name: Tynira Mek
Homeworld: Coruscant
Species: Human
Age: 37
Appearance: Blonde hair usually braided around her head, grey eyes that see more than one would think. Petite figure, but then, size matters not.
Dress: Standard Jedi robes, colored on the lighter side of tan and beige. Field boots. Most Jedi are unadorned, but she does wear a silver ring on her right hand, forged in the shape of a lily.
Weapons: Purple-bladed lightsaber
Skills: Tynira is highly force-sensitive, and is quite adept at manipulating it. Can hold her own in a lightsaber duel, loves to teach and believes that her own students should eventually be able to exceed her skills.
Personality: Cautious, gentle, but stubborn once she sets her mind to something.
History: Tynira was born on Coruscant, but her parents were from the Outer Rim, where her name holds the meaning "Flamelily". She was knighted at a later age than usual, due to her own insistence that she was not yet ready. Naru Kara is her second padawan.

Around the time that Naru decides to tell her master about her suspicions dealing with Ziatan.

Again, because of the holidays, everyone won't be able to get on, and I hate it when people miss the starting. We'll start on the 27th. I'll either post first, or appoint someone else to. :)

EDIT: We still need one more master for Aerandir's character!
