So then, I have been inspired to create a Star Wars Roleplay based around a cult of Dark Side practitioners.

Not the Sith mind you, but a tight knit circle of Dark Jedi.
Remember, there is a difference between the Sith and Dark Jedi.
The Sith are a heritage, a unique lineage of Darksiders, whereas Dark Jedi are more so a classification for all those who practice the Dark Side and it's ideologies.

Anyway however, this Roleplay will be an "open world" galactic wide Roleplay with a broad span of options and choices for the players.

However, while I have the basic structure and designs down for mark, there are some major and minor details which need to be ironed out and fitted.

So needless to say, there is some heady discussion required here at the early stages.


So, let us begin...

______________________________________________________________________

TIME PERIOD SETTING


SPAN OF CONTROL AND INFLUENCE


NAME OF THE CULT


______________________________________________________________________

THE CULTIST LEADER


Alright then, I eagerly await responses, posts, and input.
I'm looking forward to and feel quite excited about this idea and intend to see that it blossoms to maximum potential.

I'll place my tentative interest here. As for the discussion on the time frame and size of the Cult, I'll give my vote a bit later since they all look like good eras to RP in.

I'm interested! As for time period? I think that 20 bby would be the best, plenty of Jedi to get tangled up with and we can play both sides to our own gain or something along those lines :)

Oh, are we reserving certain roles for our characters? If so...actually, I have no idea who I want to use.

Back to the time era, I think I'm gonna put my vote for pre-Phantom Menace. That way we can move about and do shady things without much suspicion from the Jedi. Though honestly, I'm up for any of the three eras. Can't really choose.

I'd be interested in joining this. :D

I don't have any really strong preferences for the time period, but I'm leaning more towards pre-Phantom Menace.

While I am ecstatic about this mass pileup of interest, I request that everyone contribute opinions as far as the 3 issues that are up for vote.

So far, the only thing that has been voted for truly is the time period,
which stands at 2 for pre-Phantom Menace and 1 for the later years of the Clone Wars.

These little details must be ironed out before I construct the RP OP and the Character Sheet.

(No pressure ;p)

I think that our cult should be based on a ship, maybe some kind of derelict that we've turned into a semi-operational dark (or grey) cathedral type of thing. We shouldn't wield too much power in my opinion, and so the ship idea allows us to still visit far off places and locales without being some sort of galaxy-spanning cult network. Just my 2 cents

I think Pre-Phantom Menace would be pretty good. Plus, there's not much canon around this time (that I can think of)so we can play around a bit more. I also like the idea @Amaranth had about being a derelict or, hell, we could have a space station in the middle of nowhere. I think we shouldn't have much power and probably specialize in stealth, assassinations and espionage. Though, considering we're still Jedi we can still rip through half an army if we needed.

Gonna be a shameless follower and agree with the two opinions above me. For the name of our Cult, I like the Outcasts best. Since we're not true Sith it'd make sense that we don't see ourselves as full-fledged agents of the Dark Side and more just misunderstood users of it who know it'd be frowned upon.

I could live with pre-Phantom Menace. I'm seconding The Outcasts as well, I like the idea that we aren't totally evil, maybe just misguided.

Alright then, so, this is a basic description of what we have so far;

- A small cult of Darksiders known as "The Outcasts" that scour the galaxy in in a remodeled and refitted freighter class ship, which will be named during OP construction. The cult itself is small with only around twenty or so members, all of which are trained in the Jedi arts.

Most of the members are in their early to late twenties, aside from the High Master and the Inquisitor.

The current year is 37 BBY, 5 years prior to the Naboo Invasion by the Trade Federation.

While not totally evil in nature, The Outcasts are very devout followers of the Dark Side, and idolize its philosophies as well as many of histories greatest Sith Lords.
While not of the Sith heritage, The Outcasts admire and respect the Sith Lords to a great depth.


Does this sound pleasing to all?

If not, or if something is nagging at you, or if you have any questions, then please speak up and out, after all, this is not my RP, this is our RP. :D

Just stumbled upon this today, and I'm pretty happy with the outline you have so far, although I was curious if any part of the "Legends" can be added into the story, or are we going with strictly canon?
