(Note: For Original PCs wanting to update their CS let me know about revisions)

I MAY be interested in joining as a former jedi padawan whom had not been chosen for knighthood just yet whom survived the purge as of 19 BBY. He was no knight but he did get some basic training and force powers and continued to train using a holocron he found. He survived by simply not being near any clones near the end of the war his master and he were off on a basic training mission He would be about....33 or so.

Before asking he technically is skilled as the average jedi Consular (green bladed jedi who focus on force powers) He can do some basic stuff such as force push, mind trick, and the like but he can't absorb blaster bolts (the best he could do is reflect them) and he is at best a relatively average duelist whom is specialized in Form VI: Niman. He is technically as skilled as a knight but he simply never got the chance to get to do the trials due to his teacher's overblown expectations.

If a jedi is too much I understand and won't make a big deal about it.

Jedi is fine just note this is a period when Jedi are hunted down so a public Jedi would be a dead Jedi at this point

True enough is there an OOC I can put the Cs up at?

Not yet. You can post it here though. An OOC won't start until the first chapter is over. Which nears an ending. This will be a continuing series of RPs that compliment each other. Gaining and losing characters as we go. So far I have a solid group.

Alright then.

Name: Harry Lancer
Race: Human
Gender: Male
Age: 31
Homeworld: Corellia
Profession: Jedi Consular (former and secret current)/Herbalist/Doctor
-
Appearance:

-
Personality: Not one to miss a joke Harry is a man who likes to use humor as much as possible. He is a kind and humble individual who believes heavily in the light side of the force and reveres the living force. He tends to have little pride and doesn't tend to respond to insults. He loves to talk casually with people and tends to smile a lot. He is a extremely patient person and uses this to great effect in duels. However he prefers not to fight which has heavily influenced his aptitude to the mind trick. He doesn't enjoy ending the life of another person but doesn't hesitate to defend himself in the world now knows. His passion and drive make him a formidable person in his own right as he heavily believes in the teachings of his masters Ju, Yoda, and Cin. He is a person who is prone to introspection into the place and life around him. He however does maintain a serious demeanor when the need arises and he treats all people as respectfully as he can.
-
Biography: Born on Corellia before the Clone Wars young jedi Harry Lancer was discovered by Iridonian Jedi Master Ku Ron and Selkath Jedi Padawan Swar Math as a 4 year old child. He was the son of a rich merchant and a friend of Ku Ron whom had traveled together as children before Ku became a full fledged jedi. It was by accident when young Harry saved Swar's life by stopping him from falling off a building by using force pull on the padawan instinctively. While the merchant loathed to let go of his first born son so quickly he trusted that the boy was better off as a jedi and that he should follow his own path. Ku took Harry to the temple and he was instructed by the legendary Master Yoda for a time before being thrust into the care of Master Cin Drallig the legendary Jedi Battlemaster whom would teach him Niman to compliment the boy's great affinity to the living force discovered by Master Yoda. He was considered a quick learner and an above average force user even at his young age. For his handful of years at the temple he was quickly able to grasp a hold of most of his subjects due to his superior ability to learn and grasp concepts. He was given a gift from his father once he reached the rank of padawan a rare crystal, a Viridian lightsaber crystal to be exact. He made many friends and companions during his time as a jedi and even developed a crush on one of his fellow initiates a young Jedi named Rei Durali from Dantooine. However with the oncoming of the Naboo Crisis he was given a master, a Duro Jedi Knight by the name of Ju Kamars whom was known for his strong affinity to the force but also his strict and heavily disciplined way of teaching. Though the two didn't get along well by any means he and his padawan managed to form a working relationship and a respect for one another after missions to Dxun, Telos, Mon Calamari, and Nar Shadda proved to test their limits. Rei accompanied him often and the two grew close before having been separated by the clone wars. Ju refused to send off his padawan to the clone wars but were noted for small skirmishes with separatist forces during the conflict which tested the abilities of young Harry who proved spectacularly well with his ability to force push and pull objects. Rei was stationed on Coruscant however while Harry and Ju were sent to help wounded and weak peoples throughout the galaxy much to the relief of the jedi master. The two were on the ancient home of the Jedi, Tython, when the clones were ordered to assassinate the jedi and Master Ju decided to leave young Harry with a friend of his on Dantooine where he worked as a doctor and a herbalist for many years. Ju had left him with his old lightsaber as well as a keep sake while he ventured to the doomed conclave on Kessel. He avoided the imperials with ease thanks to his easy manipulation of the force and his strong affinity with the jedi mind trick. He also studied a holocron of a strong jedi master from the old sith wars named Jen Chi whom's teachings allowed him to become even stronger. Despite being in isolation he secretly studied and trained himself as best he could without being discovered and not taking risks to the aforementioned which hindered his opportunities greatly. After some time he decided to travel the galaxy even at his own risk to help others like he had in the clone wars with a fabricated identity and all.

Alright accepted, look forward to RPing with you ;)

Alright cool.

So any idea on when I can jump in?

I'm waiting on the first RP to close, but I'll see if my players are active first

I'm going to try to work you into the first chapter.

Any room for one more

Alright well just inform me when you're ready to get me into whatever.

Inkwell said
Any room for one more

I'm interested too, how about two more?

Yes there is room for two, or three for that matter. Get your CS up for approval first.

Vance, stand by, I'll work you in at the first chance I get. You'll get a PM from me when it comes.

Can you give us a plot summary of what happened so far?

Episode I: ESCAPE FROM MOS SHUUTA

It has a period of unrest and opportunity in the galaxy.
the Galactic Empire struggles to maintain control in
the midst of civil war. Meanwhile, scoundrels and
smugglers, explorers and expatriates, and fringers of
all types scramble for a living on the edges of
galactic civilization. It is a hard life, but these
renegades have more freedom and opportunity than
any citizen of the Core Worlds.

On the desert world of TATOOINE, a few such
renegades have run afoul of a local crime boss,
TEEMO THE HUTT. Trapped in the tiny spaceport of
Mos Shuuta, the renegades have no choice but to
steal a starship and flee Teemo's forces.
As they flee through the suns-baked
streets, the renegades duck into the local cantina
to hide from their pursuers...

Ruu, Cor, Sektor and Arla have escaped Mos Shuuta in a stolen YT-1300 light freighter and are on the run from Teemo's associates.

Mind if I join in? I am certainly open to negotiation as far as my CS goes:

Name: Tazzak
Race: Jawa
Gender: Male
Age: 19
Homeworld: Tatooine
Profession: Freelance Mechanic

Appearance:
Tazzak is a typical Jawa to most. His face is darkened and obscured under his hood at all times, hiding it save for the soft yellow glow of his eyes. He stands a little over a metre off the ground and is not exactly built threateningly.

As he is often working in the confines of starships, Tazzak prefers to wear a shortened version of the Jawa hooded brown robe, one that is closer-fitting to his arms and stops at his waist. To cover his legs, he wears trousers of a lighter brown colour and foot wrappings of a similar material. he also wears a pouched bandolier and belt with various nick-knacks as well as tools.

Personality:
Moody and fiercely independent, Tazzak makes a quick impression as one who's patience rivals his relative stature to others. Unfortunately, the consequence of his physicality means that the passion in his angry rants at people who cross him are limited to his robotic and near monotonous voice synthesiser that speaks basic for him. When not in a chiding mood, he is clever and persistent, occasionally finding interesting ways around engineering problems. This can unfortunately lead to display something of a superiority complex.

Bio:
While Tazzak was initially raised in a clan that called a mobile sandcrawler home, his talents developed in areas which were less focussed on bodging together something sellable as actually making things work. Pretty much anything electronic and mechanical that fell into his hands was transformed into something that functioned as good as new. He was somewhat appreciated in his family, but ambition drove him to want to work on bigger projects. His dream of building his own starship from scratch was one he knew he was never going to fulfil if he stayed on the sandcrawler, so he left home to get work wherever he could.

He ended up at Mos Shuuta and established himself as a kind of fix-it for hire. At first, he only got work fixing minor problems in droids and the like, but eventually he was trusted enough to help out at the excuse of a spaceport that the community had. With Mos Shuuta being the place it was, it wasn't long before he ran into some types that took advantage of him. The day he didn't get payment for fixing an expensive problem with a certain ship reactor was the same day that he bought himself a weapon. Thankfully, work has been steady since. A change in attitude to have a chip on his shoulder in combination with waving around his blaster pistol has certainly helped against swindlers and the like.

His latest job was to crawl around underneath the floors of a busted up light freighter to work on the power distribution. A light freighter that is coincidentally being hijacked by some mysterious armed assailants.

Weapons: DH-17 Blaster Pistol with a shoulder strap. He's only ever had to threaten people with it rather than actually get in a firefight. The fusion cutter also hurts, but he would rather not risk breaking it.

Gear/Equipment/Items: A homemade voice synthesiser to speak galactic basic standard. Some extra gas and power packs for his blaster. A set of tools including a fusion cutter, welding goggles, protective gloves, a hydrospanner and a fusing pen.

Accepted Muttonhawk, loved your character. We need a mechanic. If you would like to join in the first Episode, feel free to make an introduction post.

Our characters have landed their stolen ship in the endless desert away from Mos Shuuta... seems like the perfect place to run into Jawas or an old hermit (*wink wink* vancexentan).

If you do decide to join us please repost your CS in the OOC of the first episode (link in top post) so my other players can see. Thank you.

May need some work sorry it's taken so long.

Name: Zorris Dilan
Race: Zelosian
Gender: Female
Age: 22
Homeworld: Boonta
Profession: Mercenary/ bounty hunter
Appearance:
Personality: Zorris is the kind of girl that will always back her friends up no matter what as long as you don't betray her. She is always light hearted even in combat probably due to her childhood on such a harsh world. She loves exploring places she hasn't been to before. She also likes collecting little bits and pieces mainly weapons.
Bio: When Zorris was born her parents where working for the local Hutt Cartel leader for three standard years. Their job involved them breeding and maintaining plants that could be made into all sorts of illegal substances. When they had time they would experiment with new breeds and tested the effects they had on people the Hutt found distasteful. Zorris never really knew her parents as they where more involved with their work than her.

By the time she had entered her teenage years Zorris was already doing little bits of work for the cartel. Mainly being a courier moving small parcels from one place to another under the eyes of the law. It wasn't to hard avoiding the law as many didn't care and the ones that did would never suspect a child. When Zorris wasn't busy working she and her friends would either try sneaking into the pod racing stadium or maybe look around the massive amounts of junk scattered over the planet. When her parents could be bothered they would sit her down and make her read her text books and watch her holo lessons.

Around the age of sixteen she had been involved in a shoot out which involved the Cartel and a local group of bandits. She wasn't hurt but her parents finally realised they had been ignoring her to much. Afterwards they spent a lot more time with her and actually started getting to know their daughter. However this rather hurt the productivity of the work they where doing for the Cartel. Lets just say he reminded them about there deal but when they didn't listen the next day her father came home beaten. Zorris not wanting her parents to suffer because of her ran away from home and she managed to get on a transport to Junkfort Station. Hoping that maybe she could join up with the crew of a smuggling ship or something.

She had to wait several months doing odd bits and pieces for people around the station hardly making enough to live on before someone offered her a job. She and someother new recruits stepped onto the freighter the very next day. She had signed up to join a mercenary crew. Although it wasn't necessarily what she had in mind originally the recruiter had talked her into it with his glamorised stories. However he never mentioned what happened to his original crew he only said they had gone their separate ways. It was only when Zorris went to her room that she understood what he meant by separate ways as the previous crew mans possessions and gear where still there. She and the rest of the new crew where given some lessons so they wouldn't die instantly on there first mission or shoot themselves in the foot. Zorris found it odd using a dead persons belongings but she got over it after all what did it matter.

It was a month before they received their first job. It was the most simple and easy job there captain could find as he wanted to ease his new crew into it. All they had to do was find and bring some banker that had stollen money from some very dubious clients. It wasn't hard finding him as he was living it up and spending like crazy. Though they had a big surprise when they broke into his home. Turns out he had bought some bodyguard droids which immediately unleashed a barrage of blaster fire. Her two companions that went first where cut down and she barely managed to take cover behind the door. After that they threw in several grenades and fired a few shots in just for good measure. Afterwards it was easy getting the frightened little man and returning him to his employers.

At the age of twenty two Zorris is the only one left from those original new recruits along with the captain. However they have gradually replaced crew members over the years however in the last few months no one has died and they had a solid crew. The only reason Zorris believes she is alive today is because of three key things one growing up in place filled with danger, her training and lastly a lot of luck.

However things where about to change one fateful day on Tatooine. When they went to see Teemo about a potential job he wanted them to do. However when Zorris and the crew came to see Teemo it turns out he actually wanted to speak their newest crew member. Turns out he had a massive gambling debt and owed the Hutt a lot of credits and that if didn't receive the credits soon he would have to be most unpleasant. They reassured there crewman that they would try and help him but his debt was immense. What he would do next was almost unthinkable. In the night he killed the rest of the crew and bound Zorris. His plan was to sell the ship and Zorris as a slave to Teemo. It turns out this had been his plan ever since he joined and had sorted it out with Teemo ages ago. However Zorris managed to escape stealing a speeder and fleeing into the dune sea. Teemo has since put a price on her to be returned to him.
