Name: Enu'falu | Enufa Lu-Vizsla
Age: 21
Gender: Female
Species: Twi'lek
Combat Role: Support
Years in Mynock Squad: 1

Appearance: Standing at 1.6 meters (5’3”) and 131 pounds, Enu’falu doesn’t tower over the majority of her teammates if any of them at all. With her young age she isn’t particularly battle-worn in appearance outside of a few cuts from vibroblade brawls and blaster fire. Her eyes are an icy blue much like her complexion and skin tone with light angular markings on her tendrils which extend past a metallic headband that was once her mother’s. When outside of her armor her appearance is likened much to that of a fringer or freight smuggler with a long jacket, tunic, and utility belt. Cosmetically she does not favor the superfluous or excessive.

Skills and Abilities:
  • Bounty Hunter
    Trained from a young age with a wealth of experience in combat and non-combat by Mekket Vizsla, Enu’falu has very distinct knowledge and skills. This is not to say she is a master bounty hunter or mercenary but she is skilled enough to be competent at it. Tracking, predicting target psychology, information gathering, and ambush tactics are all part of her skillset.
  • Uncanny Reflexes
    Due to her conditioning and training by Mekket Vizsla, the twi’lek has found herself faster than most with good instinctive reflexes and perception of her surroundings which has allowed her to avoid critical injury in senseless brawls with her betters. However she isn’t as fast as she used to be given that she is an adult and not an adolescent.
  • Tough Learner
    Enu’falu has trouble learning quickly, which admittedly is not a good trait in a potential hunter or mercenary. In tight spots she will rely on a proven method of success rather than adapting in a pinch which can be quite problematic.


Equipment
  • Mekket's Mandalorian Helmet
  • Mandalorian Shock Armor
  • Aratech Heavy Blaster
  • GXW Blaster Carbine
  • Grenade Belt
  • Toolkit
  • Vibroknife


History: Enu’falu had a childhood that wasn’t particularly idyllic, but it wasn’t terrible—or it wasn’t until her father found himself on the unintended receiving end of blaster fire from a panicked target of a bounty. Given her mother’s death three years prior this left Enu orphaned on a backwater planet and at age seven would’ve been left to the elements of the underbelly of the planet if not for the guilt of the bounty hunter who indirectly caused her father’s death. This bounty hunter was a Mandalorian named Mekket, a veteran hireling from the infamous Vizsla Clan, and the man she would come to know as her second “father”. Despite this guilt and debt he thought he owed the young twi’lek, Mekket also found himself in an ill situation to raise a child in-between jobs as a bounty hunter/mercenary, his cynical worldview, a lack of experience with children, and poor time to do it. For a time he searched for a better home for the child but by the time he had found something remotely suitable found himself decidedly attached to the point he changed his mind about not raising her himself.

In time Mekket knew he had to prepare Enu if she was going to be able to do anything after his time had come and his final fight had passed. It was here that he began instilling Mandalorian values in her as well as constantly conditioning her as a hunter and fighter. Despite Enu’s difficulty learning quickly, constant training and lectures began to prepare her in several ways—even if Mekket had not birthed her himself he most certainly had a child of his own, something that kept him pushing her harder and harder as his expectations had to be met. After all, the galaxy was far more harsh and unforgiving than any difficult session of training. Following his private mentorship, Mekket began taking Enu on his contracts—explaining the occupation, what it demanded, and the consequences of failing; and seeing it point blank was far easier to grasp than being told like she had been previously. She operated as his pseudo-partner on these jobs and in time she did well despite some failures in the beginning that cost Mekket partial vision in his left eye. Consequences, indeed.

However, a fit of nostalgia and duty had been filling Mekket’s heart—one unrelated to his newfound daughter-partner. This was of course, the precedent of the raids that led up to the Mandalorian Wars. Enu couldn’t agree more with her adopted father due to what he had taught her and how he had in a way told her how to think. She was Mandalorian in many ways already, so with an eager hunger the duo found themselves on Dxun— where he had all of the rites enforced upon his non-inducted daughter. It was 3971 BBY. The training on Dxun was not easy and as Mekket set off to join the war himself with her on Dxun she found adrenaline and drive in her desire to make him proud—he had raised her since she was seven years old after all. She would go on to endure the Mandalorian training rites and earn respect, when she saw Mekket again he had given her his helmet as a keepsake: to keep her pushing on even if they were apart. After a modification the helmet became her own and she kept it close.

After a series of battles and surviving assaults where her comrades had perishes the higher command took an interest to her skills and looked to the vacancy of a role in the well-regarded Mynock Squad. To which she began serving under Rika Lapaz starting in 3963 BBY. It has been a year since, and the story carries on…

Psychological Analysis: Deflecting emotional issues with sarcastic snark, Enu finds trouble opening up to others. She’s admittedly abrasive and difficult, choosing to be rash and stubborn over obedient and open to new ideas. However, she does get decidedly positive results despite her difficult psychosis. She was admitted to the squad for her results and perhaps the benefit of working with others in a team climate to better her own cooperativeness. Perhaps it is due to only enduring loss that this rigid shell was born, or perhaps it was the mentorship by Mekket Vizsla and how he explained people to her in her childhood who himself had decidedly cynical views of the universe. Despite all of that however she does have virtues of courage, honor, guile, and loyalty – though it would take certain circumstances to breed such behaviors such as comfortability, friendship, or nostalgia.

Alright I have returned from the darkness known as work and life. Thus begins the time for me to do that GM thang.

@CutUp
I actually like him and every kick ass team needs the guy to blow shit up. You are right though the history could use a little work, maybe mention how it felt for him to have to go back and slaughter his people when the Mando's came through Iridonia's colonies and eventually Iridonia itself about a year prior to the RP as a suggestion because helping commit the slaughter of your race even if you gave them up still probably has a way of effecting you. But you know that is just a suggestion, feel free to rework the history if you want but in its current iteration I see no real glaring issues that need to be addressed. So whenever you feel ready you may post your CS to the character tab.

@Gowi
We went most of the stuff already through Skype and everything checks out still, so you may also post your CS to the character tab.

@Sep
Oh hey Sep, I haven't seen you in a long ass minute. Last time was what...... Jedi Exile I think? Damn that was around two years ago by this point. But you sir with your overflowing bastion of knowledge of the Star Wars Universe would be a welcomed addition. In its current iteration we currently have a support role, heavy weapons, squad leader and a CQC specialist. So I suppose we could use somebody with a little more range, a designated marksman or something like that. Or if you really want to be fancy and mess with the group dynamic a FNG. But really I'm not here to tell people to create characters to fit specific roles. I only askthat said characters are interesting, well thought out and their players are willing to tell a fine ass story

@coolguy@Zoldyck@sloth
Any updates on how your sheets are progressing?

Anyway to give you guys an estimate it is currently Thursday here on the lovely eastern coast of America, I would love to have this up and going by the weekend since it is labor day weekend here so I'll have a little bit more time to make sure everything hits the ground running.

@Hexaflexagon You know me, I like to be useful. Also yeah you were in the... original rendition of Exile if I recall correctly? Tried rebooting it on the NuGuild.... didn't work. The old cast was the best ;)

Still kinda hope to one day bring it back (Probalby in advanced).

Though if you've got your heavy weapons I'd think roles left open that I'd have fun with would be the Tech/Smart Guy, Medic, Marksman or FNG.

I like to be useful, I can play with any of those ideas.

Indeed I was. Yeah well that seems to have happened a lot in the early days of 2.0 a lot of stuff just fell flat with all the crashes and shutdowns, its taken a lot of work and determination to even get everything running smoothly as it once was.

And in regards to roles, well any of those would actually be of use. Pick whoever or whatever speaks to you the most. I always find if you let the player pick the character they want to play then that will be a much better and more thought out character then if you tell them what to pick.

Alright, I edited his history, and bit of his personality. I like it much more now, and gave him a touch of PTSD. I went ahead, and put him up in the character tab. Hope that was ok. Here's the changes I made to history.

@Hexaflexagon I wanted to try my hand at advanced and thought I could do it since I know a ton about Star Wars, but I'm afraid of dragging you guys down. This RP really deserves to be great, so I'll probably just step back on this one. It'll also open up space for someone who will do much better than myself.

@Hexaflexagon Might go with Marksman/Recon.

Mandalorians use Jetpacks quite often, may as well play with them. Also on a Jedi Exile note hopefully one day I'll get it going again, when I do I'm totally going to try and drag you with me ;)

@CoolGuy Pfffft. Gotta start somewhere mate. We're all cool here, give it a go. Take your time, think about your posts and they'll be great.

You should always try, if you fail you can just pick yourself back up and work harder. I didn't join an advanced game until the original Ultimate DC and all I did was look at what my co-writers were doing and try to rise to the standard. Took me some time, but I like to think it worked. Patience, self-awareness, and desire for self-improvement are the way to go yeh?

Also, drag me to Jedi Exile too if you do that.

Will do. If I do I'll probably launch it as my first Advanced (I RP to an Advanced Standard, or so I'm told) and am in a couple of Advanceds now so I guess it is time :P

Though yeah my first advanced was... Star Wars Aftermath with Ellri as the GM.

Try pleasing that guy for your first advanced.

It ain't easy. ;)

W.I.P (Though I'm sure you noticed that Hex xD)

Name: Mar Den
Age: 24
Gender: Male
Species: Human
Combat Role: Sniper/Force Recon
Years in Mynock Squad: 6
Appearance:


He stands at around 5'11 and weighs about 200 pounds. Eyes a chill blue, and hair a deep brown (that is often joked at it being due to a lack of washing facilities) when it is allowed to grow though often it is shaved off. His face can quite often appear burned, depending on where he's stationed, rugged and cracked with a serious look often plastered to his face. Underneath his chin there's a thin scar as if something once almost cut his head clean off. Whoever it was did succeed though in removing his right hand, which has been replaced by a synthetic hand which is encased in armour. Though it looks a bit stupid in the few times he is out of armour when in armour it looks identical to his other hand.

On his left shoulder he has a tattoo of his clans crest, which also sits on the chest of his armour right beside a skull. Another piece of graffiti is that the armour casing for his right hand has a kill count on it for high value targets that he has taken out.

Skills and Abilities:
  • Sharpshooter - Mar can boast impressive kill shots. Always hits his mark.
  • Force Recon - No matter the terrain he can scout ahead by himself, getting into the best position possible to relay information to the squad.
  • Melee Combat - He keeps a knife attached to just above his elbows, his middle, thighs and ankles in case he has to get close and personal. He also knows how to use them.
  • Survival Training - This goes without speaking, he can spend days if not weeks on his own in inhospitable conditions. He knows how to care for himself.
  • Air Capable - Naturally being Force Recon he has become quite practiced at using both Jump packs and speeder bikes.
  • Artist - Yeah, he can draw too.


Equipment
  • 1x Blaster Sniper Rifle - He doesn't get attached to a rifle, and will just use whatever is available.
  • 2x Blaster Pistols - One on each hip, for if it's getting closer.
  • Knives - One at each joint, and then some hidden blades. For when it gets really close.
  • 1x Standard Issue Jump pack.
  • 2x Flash/Stun Grenades
  • 1x Notepad.
  • 1x Pencil


History:

Mar Den is the youngest member of his family, and one of the many members of his clan acting as advanced scouts within the Mandlorian ranks. Even from a young age it was obvious what he would become, living in highland areas of Mandalore with vast forests his clan crew up being hunters. They wouldn't farm animals to butcher, for there was no challenge. Instead once a Den became old enough to carry a rifle he would be taught how to hunt.

Like the rest of his family Mar took a shining to this, he would go out on the hunting trips with other members of his clan. Often the youngers and the elders together as those of fighting age were often taken to be trained in the military for whatever the Manda'lor had planned.

On his thirteenth birthday it came time to go through Verd'goten, and he was ready. He was given a beast to track, a rifle and some basic rations. From there, it was up to him. Verd'goten would last as long as it took him to return, however he could not return without his prey. It took him three weeks, his clothes were tattered and his rifle only had enough charge for one shot. Though over his shoulder he carried the best, dumping it in the centre of town with a smile on his face. He had done it, he had become a hunter and he had become a man.

There was much celebration that night, as now an adult he took his first drink (With many more to follow) in celebration. They danced, and they sang songs. Until the headache in the morning. Training before he was an adult had been tough. What he was about to be put through was something more.

Though most Mandalorians didn't know it the Manda'lor had plans to expand, to let the Mandalorian people have the glorious battle they deserved the chieftens did and they had to get their people ready. As some of the best hunters on the planet the Den tribe had to get better. They could track prey across a planet, but could they track other living beings? The forest and nearby mountains became fake warzones. Mar would both be hunted, and th ehunter. Wearing the most basic armour provided to him.

His face became rugged, cracked and bruised as he climbed through trees and waded through foliage. It wasn't until he had five "Confirmed" kills that they felt him ready to be trained in a jumppack.

That was a new challenge entirely. It changed the playing field, he was used to fighting using variances in terrain but now he could reach places previously unreachable. At the cost of being noticed, the packs not being the most quiet of devices. His kill streak improved, then the war broke out.

Being immediately assigned to Mynock squad it was a change of pace again. Yes he had targets, but he had time limits. He had to hunt, and then relay the information back. Having worked as a team before it had always been with his clan mates, people like him. Now he was put into an entirely new theatre of conflict. Six years on, and he hasn't changed. Except for the loss of a hand, and it's subsequent replacement.
Psychological Analysis:
>list]
[*]Emotionally Distant - He's spent most of his life hunting, he doesn't speak unless he needs too and is used to having to work by himself. That doesn't mean he can't work as a team.
[*]Hunter - Years hunting he has grown accustomed to it. He sees himself very much as a predator having little to no care to the targets he's after, they're just his prey.
[*]Clan Man - Like most Mandalorians he is very faithful to his clan, will likely marry someone within his clan and spent most of his life with them. They are his main weakness
[*]Honour Bound - He may be a hunter, but he is honour bound. If challenged to a hand to hand/melee fight he will likely accept. That said if it's a mission he won't risk everything on his honour. Even if it breaks him.
[*]Caring - Don't expect him to ever show it. But he cares, if his comrades are in combat he will engage the targets who are the biggest threat to them first. That said like before he won't risk the mission on it but if he can it is what he'll do.
[*]Artistic - Nobody really knows where it came from, but he's artistic. He'll quite often spend time drawing scenes while he waits, usually requests from other Mandalorians

just curious... did anyone [@mention] us the other day here? We got a notification about this thread, but couldn't see any @Ellri tags in here at the time.

Others made us seem stricter than we personally are, Sep. The worst time, other than when we get outright mary sues (who all need harsh judgement), was our judgement of characters towards the end of Relics, when we had a lot more than desirable on our plate (RL and RP-wise).

Good luck with this RP, everyone here. We hope it succeeds.
