So I had an idea for a Star Wars RP where the player characters are new recruits into the Alliance to Restore the Republic. Some ideas I had:

Setting:
The RP is set during the Galactic Civil war, a couple of months after the destruction of the Death Star. The Rebel Alliance is still in the process of finding a new HQ after they were forced to abandon Yavin IV, fearing retribution from the Empire. This means that the Alliance High Command is currently in hiding. Even so, the Rebellion is currently going through the heaviest period of recruitment in it's history, thanks in no small part to the massive surge of confidence brought about by the victory over the Emprie at the Battle of Yavin.

Characters:
I'd like the characters in this RP to be straightforward non-Jedi. Aside from that, I'm happy with pretty much anything. If you want to say that your character is a little force-sensitive and that's why they're a really good pilot, that's fine. I'm even happy for any Jedi or Sith characters who show up to remark on the presence of force-sensitives, but I will draw the line at anyone trying to use actual Force powers.

I would also like people to try and stick to canon races as much as possible. Most of the time I don't mind homebrew stuff, but for this RP I'd really prefer to stick to established Star Wars stuff. The authentic Rebel Alliance experience!

Plot:
As I mentioned, the player characters would be recent enlistees (as in, just off the shuttle) in the Rebel Alliance. The RP would start in a basic training camp and I'm thinking my character would be their drill sergeant. The RP would progress through the standard things like weapons training and fitness drills and whatnot, but also flight school (starting in T-16 skyhoppers and progressing through to X-Wings). Eventually the recruits would 'graduate' and be placed together for deployment, at which point I'll decide where we're going.

If there's anything else anyone wants to know about, feel free to ask. I'll be keeping an eye on this thread to see what sort of interest there is, and if enough people want to do it I'll get onto making the OOC thread.

Sounds cool. Out of curiosity, does Legends count for anything?

I think this will be a huge help for me to roleplay more Star Wars in the future since I love it so much but don't follow the books... yet.

Dafuq is Legends?

I won't rule it out, but it would have to be a very good character sheet.

If/when I do the OOC I'll leave a message in both interest checks and link to it.

I won't be following the books very closely either, if at all. Given that none of them are canon any more, there seems little point in doing so.

@Sarge Legends is all the EU that Disney declared non-canon.

You know why Disney declared the EU non-canon? So they didn't have to pay off all those writers.

@13sparx13 Ah, then no. Since the EU is no longer canon, we won't be using it as a basis. That said, I still might borrow certain things from it, and you are free to reference the EU in your characters and posts (provided that it doesn't contradict anything that I've written).

Also, since I think there's been more than enough interest now, I'll begin working on the OOC soon™.

Likewise to you, friend! I figured since the other roleplay we are in seems to have died before it started, I may as well branch out into another!

Interested, but I have a question. Later on in the story(assuming it stay's up that long), will it be possible to become Jedi or Sith? I'm fine with it being a no, I'm just curious is all. I don't really have a need for a Force-Sensitive if I can't really do anything late-story.
