Hehe I figured with the whole "strongest survive" thing there'd be some that developed very....carnivorous appetites XD maybe an even somewhat cannibalistic side-cult society or something and sharpening their teeth can be some kind of creepy rite of passage o.o (or maybe that's getting a little TOO dark, thanks brain *reels brain back and makes it sit in the naughty corner*)

Gotta have ghost dad pop in every now and then or we'd miss him! Haha

It hasn't been really D: but I think it's our area in general cuz we had some more outages earlier in the week too o: seems to be fixed now though so that's good! *taps wooden doorframe*

EDIT: Tah dah, got them in and sort of started the convo, didn't want to get too far ahead. Also let me know what you think of the whole Force-signature idea thing and whether it's something that we could actually work with? XD

Hey there! Hope the power outages have turned off for the weekend (HA! Get it? Turned off...power....he....he...)

I'll build off of what you just introduced. Fair warning: lore bomb incoming in my next post. We'll have to reshape if needed, but yeah, Renso is about to build some mad lore in this post xD

Hahaha! Good news is it seems to have stabilised itself now so hopefully it stays that way! XD

Ooohhh sweeeet I shall be eagerly awaiting what he has to reveal! XD

That revelation will probably come later in the day. Grading as usual xD

Haha no worries, no rush! XD

There we go!

How long should Ari and Yerbol's training period be? I was thinking a couple of weeks? Renso is on his last legs anyway xD

Ohh maaaan, I got chills reading those visions/flashbacks O_O

I actually really, really feel for Renso now too D': Poor guy, realising a moment too late that he messed up and just trying to put it right...

A couple weeks sounds good (dunno if the poor dude would last much longer haha) xD How should we proceed with that, do we want to play it out in 'real time' or do you want me to start like a time-skip montage type thing on the end of my next post? c:

Yay for chills and yay for tragically flawed hero to come across! Glad both happened xD

Two weeks it is! Uh...montage probably, right? Two weeks of receiving training might bog us down. Maybe write in a couple of anecdotes that highlight their training? However you wish is fine by me :)

Also, I figured that that the duo would be receiving philosophical instruction as well as combat knowledge/experience, so in both our montages we can allude to that, yeah?

Montage it is, then! I shall work it in! :P

Hooray for philosophicalness! Definitely something they'd need if they're going to become Masters of the Force and pioneers of Renso's perfected philosophies c: since they didn't get awful much of that from Roan (though I imagine he tried very hard, bless his cottons haha) before he died xD

Somewhat of a lore bomb here too I guess? haha hopefully I fleshed out just enough of it and didn't do too little or too much ;w; feel free to add or change anything of course!
Hope I wasn't too OoC for Renso either, he seemed like the "silent but mysterious" type from what we've seen of him so far so I tried to stick with that.

Struggled a bit with expressing the philosophy part of it but think this is a good start? Straight up stole the mantra thing from Chirrut in Rogue One but it was just so perfectly worded for what they believe in now that I had to use it XD

Awesomesauce. You need to make sure that Aria has a chance to use her screams/new abilities VERY soon. Also, did I read your post right concerning Aria's form? Is she changing stances or lightsaber types?

Bah, like I said earlier, unless/until our arc becomes written into an Old Republic video game/comic book/movie, we're fine. Besides, it encompasses EVERYTHING that Renso has tried to impart to them in one compact phrase.

I'll build on what you laid down, then carry us to Renso's death? Sound good? Then from there we can move on to Zinuthra, then...well, let's just say that Nar Shaddaa is going to get a very big makeover that our dynamic duo is going to have to see in person

*rubs hands together maliciously*

Haha oh I'll work it in sometime soon fear not! XD I figured she'd sort of change her stances just a little and start blending techniques from her original form (which was Ataru) with some of Shien (which Roan showed her some of) and anything else Renso teaches them, though she'd still greatly favour Ataru

Haha Ikr! (Although to be fair I think the script writers for Rogue One may have pinched that line from the Grey Jedi EU anyways, I think the last line of their code is very similar...)

Sounds brilliant! And man that sounds ominously awful...what are you going to do to our poor little Forcelings next? D: xD

Let's just say that it's going to involve Hutts being ripped in half in a very literal manner 0_0

Update: ALMOST finished grading for the day/helping kids out on essays, so I'll get my post up later today! Sorry for the delay!

Ooohhh....sounds lovely O_O (Certainly not for the Hutts, either...)

Hahaha, no worries! XD

Aaaand it'll be tomorrow. My brain is scrambled egg. I'll make up for it tomorrow! Just you wait! Hutt blood everywhere! xD

Pahahaha no worries! Go rest that brain, we can murder Hutts plenty tomorrow! xD

Sooooo I realized that this post might be longer than normal due to naming one of the main instigators within the Xiis/talking about Nar Shaddaa/etc, which translates to me wanting to know how you'd like to proceed. I know we worked out a rough outline for events, but now we can get a bit more specific. Allow me to spell out what I've got going on in my head and then you can modify/add/subtract as you see fit:

-Yerbol and Ari learn everything they can from Renso before he dies, which includes a warning about the Xiis being "implanted" on several worlds within Galactic space that are more than likely the targets of the Xiis who have already awoken.

-Deciding they'd need back up first, Ari and Yerbol go to Zinuthra where they talk to the Council, which agrees that an academy should be formed sooner rather than later. A call will soon be put out for any Force users willing to be trained to go to Zinuthra where the makings of the first academy will be. (we need to name the Order around this time, yeah?)

-After talking with the Council, Saresh puts in a call to Zinuthra asking for Havoc Squad to investigate a deathly silence from all comms on Nar Shaddaa. Yerbol and Aria, thinking that it might have something to do with the Xiis, join the squad.

-The Xiis who awakened first have caused much havoc since getting off world, going to Nar Shaddaa and finding their way to temple ruins beneath the massive complex built over it, awakening more of their kind and...well, I'd like to surprise you :p

Aaaahhh this all sounds REALLY fantastic so far!! I don't have much to add here really for now :P

Guess we need to really think about names for their new Order but I've not been having any luck there either.... o.o legit haven't managed to think of anything yet that doesn't sound super lame XD I shall put my thinking cap on and come up with some suggestions haha

Gotcha! Posted by the way. Feel free to skip to Zinuthra :)

Hutt blood in next post!

Sweet, shall start working on something soon! Laptop is having connection issues today for some reason so have to use my mobile instead which makes typing slower with that tiny keyboard and my massive sausage fingers XD

EDIT: OOhhhhh man I totally love the idea of Ari being able to shoot lightning out of her lightsabers! That is too awesome to not make use of soon in one way or another mwahahaha XD

Regarding name ideas I'm still very much at a bit of a deadpan, all I've got so far is this:

I imagine Ari and Bol might want to honour Renso's memory somehow (after spending some time with him and learning from him) by including something of his influence in the new name?

So I thought about using some High Sith words instead of something in Basic because it might sound a bit more awesome :P though I'm having trouble finding words that don't sound plain weird.
I've got two nice ish ones which are Atswara = Balance, and Qyasik = the Force (which kinda summarises what they hope to teach in a way?)

But NO idea how to incorporate either of them into a title or name that makes sense at all o.o
