A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away....



It is a time of peace within the galaxy. The evil Sith Empire has been defeated, ending a long, brutal war. The brave Jedi, guardians of peace throughout the galaxy are victorious. The Republic prospers, expanding across the galaxy.

Unbeknownst to many, a dark cult, Okussus, has slowly amassed power in the far reaches of space. The group is lead by a powerful former Jedi master, turned Dark Jedi and has launched several raids on neighboring worlds. Fearing a panic across its systems, the Republic quietly implements a task force filled with chosen Jedi and handpicked Republic soldiers.

The evil cult has gathered its own forces, skilled mercenaries, bounty hunters and slavers alike have pledged their loyalty to Okussus. Several Dark Jedi that have left behind their former order have also taken up arms in the faction. The threat of this new group must be ended or the Republic risks entering into another destructive war....





The Rise of Okussus is a Star Wars RP taking place in the year 1028 BBY. The Sith have been defeated, and gone into hiding, the rule of two enacted. The Empire has fallen, and the Galactic Republic is an idea slowly being built, but that has not ended the threats to the peace of the Galaxy. Darkness can rise anywhere, at any time, and this time has taken the form of a Dark Jedi Cult on the planet Ashal deep in Wild Space. Players will be taking on the roles of either Jedi, and the Republic military seeking to thwart the Dark Jedi cult, or Dark Jedi, and the mercenaries/bounty hunters/Slavers working with the cult of Okussus.

Being that this RP is taking place in the Old Republic setting, there may be points that uses the Old EU (Legends) while at other points things stick to the New EU (Canon). Ultimately this Rp is created by myself, and @Heat and is a labor of love, we take a lot of stock in the Star Wars Universe considering ourselves true fans, and hope to share this with you as players to interact in one of the greatest Sci-fi settings ever devised. We welcome you to join us in Star Wars: Rise of Okussus!

Age - 25

Faction Jedi Order Task Force

Rank - New Jedi Knight

Appearance - Nomar stands at 5'9" and has an athletic build. Black hair and green eyes. Face claim:


Apparel - This but a darker brown:


Lightsaber(s) - Two of these http://www.saberparts.com/#/configure?code=4.167.1.0-3.88.2.24-2.58.1.0-1.34.1.0-7.152.21.0-5.143.0.0

Force Speed - Expert
Force Stealth - Beginner
Battle Precognition - Intermediate
Tutaminis - Intermediate
Plant Surge -Beginner
Animal Friendship Beginner

Known Lightsaber Forms -
Shii-Cho - Master
Makashi - Intermediate
Soresu - Intermediate
Ataru - Some where just above beginner
Shien/Djem So - basics/Beginner Nomar uses Djem So reverse grip on his left hand saber as a defensive tool when needed

Skills -
Agile - Skilled in evasive maneuvers and dodging attacks.
Observant - Good at noticing the little details others can miss. The gleam of a scope on a hillside, the lose bricks in that wall to your left.
Uplifting - Something about Nomar's outlook on situations and upbeat spirit tends to make others around him more encouraged and optimistic.


Flaws -
Eager to please - Nomar is always eager to accept something to prove himself, even when he shouldn't. A task above his skill level or a favor instead of practicing or meditating. Can't say "No" to superiors either.
Hopeful - He sees the best in people and hopes the best for them... Even if they have a lightsaber clashing against his own.

Personality - Nomar is a cheerful person and keeps an optimistic outlook on every situation. He adores his team and friends and will keep his outward appearance happy to keep everyone upbeat even when he can't help but think it's going to go down the sarlac pit! He is a loyal and trustworthy ally and is brave in the face of danger.

Backstory - Nomar joined the order as a youngling and trained through his early years. He stayed in the temples and studied, he socialized little in this time and focused on bettering himself. This carried though his years as a Padawan under a Togruta master. She taught more then the holocrons ever could and the training dummies could bring to his blade.

His master brought him to many cities and rural places, temples and ruins. At one time she even brought him places she shouldn't have and missions not suited for a Padawan. She is the one who instilled in him the hopeful outlook. She told him the story of Revan, and all the good he did after his turn to dark and back to light. She spoke of the wars against Sith and the rage. She made sure to tell of most the events the holocrons skip.

The day came when Nomar became a Knight. He swore to keep the light close to his heart. He continues to look up to his mentor and hold her lessons close. He tries to work with her often but gladly accepts new teammates when needed. Now he is tasked with helping a Jedi knight seek out a cult lead by a fallen Jedi. Nomar is prepared and ready for what this task requires of him, well... He hopes he is.

I can gear my character to be on either Faction as needed

b]Name[/b] - vintius

Species - human

Sex - male

Age -28

Faction- republic special operations

Appearance - standing around 6'2 he has always had A lean body and gaunt appearence with sharp facial features, he wore the look of someone who is lost in life A tired soul who has seen enough hardship to last ten lifetimes

Appearence-


A jacket and pants of black nanofiber covers his body A gear harness rests over his chest filled with equipment in combat he is usually seen wearing A face mask and goggles out of combat he usually wears A hooded cloak over A regulation republic uniform but he always keeps his pistol and multitool close at hand

Weapons - A medium range carbine with semi auto and full auto fire, A high powered blaster pistol as well as A variety of explosives, thermal detonators, concussion grenades, and other bombs and equipmenr for sabotage and finally A vibro knife given to him by his long dead friend.

Equipment - A plethora of survival equipment such as rations and medical supplies and A small fully enclosed survival tent, and finally A multitool attache'd to his left arm. along with the medical suplex he also has adrenaline injectors and painkillers, his armor can take A good amount of punishment before tearing although it is primarily made for long range reconnaissance so it's main protection is on the chest carapace finally all his gear is contained in either his backpack or gear harness. With the dm's approval I would also ask for A cloaking device but I will easily understand why not

Skills -trained first as an infiltrator by the sith empire he became A specialist in deep reconnaissance and sabotage from this he has extensive long and close range combat training as well as explosives expertice and survival training
As well as A small amount of technical and mechanical expertise

Flaws -he has had many traumatic experiences while serving the sith empire and this has caused him to develop A nasty habit of abusing the painkillers and adrenaline packs.

Personality - quiet most of the time he prefers to stay out of conflicting conversations and generally distances himself from people. He is A man in which the ends usually justify the means which for some may seem A little extreme having dealt with intense loss he prefers not conversating about his past but will make general conversation usually with A single person due to his introverted nature.

Backstory - at the age of sixteen he joined the imperial military and soon proved to be an exceptional soldier at the age of eighteen he managed to jothe imperial special forces and began training as an operative. This is where he met his best friend artorius and together they proved to be A deadly team, they served together in multiple battles in some cases turning the very tide of the conflict, as the war grew longer arteries began talking of the morality of the war and asking whether or not we were on the right side of the conflict vintius warned him not to speak that way but artorius grew more and more disconcerted with events in the galaxy.

One day when walking through the military base that had been set up on the newly seized planet of sullust two sith warriors grabbed artorius and brought him into the center of the base accused him of treason and executed him, it turned out that he had sent A transmission to the republic warning of the development of A super weapon of some kind. After this event vintius broke he grabbed his gear and headed to the hangar where he managed to steal A small ship and flee the planet but not before he crashed the computer system and crashing the defenses leaving the base defenseless, it was taken overy days later.

After his desertion vintius headed for A planet called naboo in order to make A new life for himself, this is where he met his new mentor A ranking officer in the republic military, vintius met him in a restraunt that he worked at and he quickly relized that this man knew who he was. The officer didn't turn him in and instead offered him an out, if vintius served the republic as A sabetour that at the end of the war he would be absolved of his crimes, Vintius hesitated but agreed and for the next seven years he fought against the sith empire. after the war ended he remained as A part of the special operations unit his true identity and past still only known to that officer he met on naboo. Eventually he recieved special orders that would require him to join A task force headed for the planet of Okussus.

Name - Chaf'eroso'neami, goes by the Core Name of Feroson

Species - Chiss

Sex - Male

Age - 34

Faction Cult of Okussus

Appearance - A large man, standing nearly two meters in height and with a strong build. Feroson is a Chiss, with silver skin, eyes of vibrant red-orange, and a dour countenance. The corsair keeps his head and face shaven, but bears various tattoos marking significant battles and victories during his career.


Apparel/Armor - The corsair's armor is a custom made suit built for void combat and boarding actions. It is comprised mainly of durasteel and ceramic plate and reinforced with a small bit of phrik. Several simple weapon systems have been built into its bracers, along with a small energy shield. A rebreather is built into the suit's helmet. Aside from his armor, the Chiss captain wears a simple yellow jumpsuit. When in full combat gear, Feroson wears a short cape of yellow cloth over his shoulder, out of respect to House Chaf.

Weapons - Feroson keeps a wide array of weapons upon his ship, as well as his person, possessing the tools necessary to dispatch of Jedi and soldier alike. Typically he carries a cut down solid shot scattergun, a blaster rifle, blaster pistol, vibroblade, and a wrist mounted flamethrower.

Equipment - Thermal detonators, sonic detonators, smoke bombs, communicator, grappling hook, flares, and emergency rations.

Skills -
-Fereson is a skilled combatant, trained in the use of firearms, melee weapons, and unarmed combat.
-A decade and a half of life as a sailor, officer, and privateer have given the Chiss captain a wealth of knowledge and experience in matters of naval warfare, particularly boarding actions.
-Born into one of the lesser ruling families, Feroson is well educated and despite his life as a corsair, has never stopped his scholarly pursuits. He is well versed in literature, history, as well as philosophy both secular and that concerning the force and to some degree the traditions of the Sith and Jedi.

Flaws -
-Like most of his people, Feroson sees himself as in many ways superior to other races and individuals who lie outside of the Ascendancy. Because of this, he is often slow to trust outsiders and new faces, requiring them to prove themselves beyond a doubt loyal and reputable in his eyes.
-The Chiss corsair is not quick to anger, but neither is he quick to forget a slight or offense to him, his people, and his house. Many a republic captain found his vessel hunted and crew slaughtered by Feroson for showing what the Chiss believed to be 'discourtesy' towards him and his fellows. In one instance even a Sith apprentice felt the cold fury of such a grudge, the haughty novice quite vocal on his opinions of the Chiss Ascendancy and their position as proper allies rather than subjects.

Personality - Officer, gentleman, merchant, and butcher. These are words to aptly describe Feroson, who time and gain has proved his ruthlessness in the theater of war. His is a stoic philosophy, always looking to make decisions and actions based not on the whims of his emotions, but upon his directing mind. To try and understand why it is these external influences cause him distress, joy, or anger in any capacity. That is not to say he denies his emotions, he merely does all he can to prevent them from getting the better of him. Throughout his career he has tried to maintain an air of civility, and show respect to those who were his enemies, even when slitting their throats and plundering their ships. After all, how can his people truly show their superiority by turning their noses to all others? True superiority comes from an understanding of the enemy and the other, and a mastery of oneself so that you are never quite so pitiable as they.

Backstory - Born within the territory of the Chiss Ascendancy on the planet of Sarvchi, Chaf'eroso'neami was born to the lesser ruling House of Chaf. Despite the rather low position his parents actually had within the family, he was still granted the same rigorous and expansive education all his siblings and many cousins were. History, art, politics, economics, philosophy, he learned them all and with great eagerness. Philosophy in particular was a great love of his, wanting to understand the nature of the universe and its many people in more than just a physical sense. Through all the years of schooling and grooming to be a representative of a ruling house, Feroson did his best to live up to the expectations of his family and peers. The young Chiss carried himself with the nobility, dignity, and grace that were so inherent to his people.

When he came of age, Feroson chose to set sail within a merchant fleet, eager to interact with the many peoples within known space. It would be during this time that his first steps into the realm of naval war and piracy. The captain of his vessel had contracted with the Sith Empire and the Chiss Ascendency to act as a proper privateer, and as such he treated Feroson and all his other crew as though they were on a proper military vessel. He was a harsh, dour man, but respectable and a gentleman worthy of great respect and admiration in the young Chaf's eyes. Over time Feroson would prove himself both in and out of combat, seizing goods, brokering lucrative deals for his captain and House, and ultimately coming to command a vessel within the merchant fleet.

Emulating his mentor, and the many heroes he had idolized in his youth, Feroson strove for mastery over naval warfare and the art of business. He became famous within his House, a scourge of the Republic and Jedi, while maintaining the values and dignity of the Chiss people. So this went on for years, his renown growing within certain circles, along with both his wealth and his skill at murdering republic troops and Jedi. Still, despite the success Feroson had within his own little realm, the war was ultimately lost, and he was left without his largest and best paying employer. So in the aftermath of the war, privateering became full blown piracy. With the war done and over there were no contracts to take, but the ensuing chaos left him with many opportunities for plunder and smuggling. Sith Remnants, scattered Republic vessels and poorly defended supply lines, even the cartels of the Outer Rim felt the sting of his work.

This went on and on, until he was approached by an emissary of the Cult of Okussus. They promised opportunity, wealth, power, and plunder and all at the expense of the bloated Republic. These things he already had, as well as the beginnings of a fleet. What drew him, what really mattered, was the chance to fight for a cause once more, and bring honor to the House of Chaf once again. So he agreed, supplying his men, ships, contacts, as well as considerable wealth to the cause of the Cult of Okussus.

@caliban22 The sheet is a bit too short. Also some clarification would be nice on what exactly the blaster rifle and blaster pistol he carries are. What are his exact skills from being a soldier? Also he doesn't have any others outside of that? A few more faults would be nice too. Personality is alright, if a bit short as well.

Backstory needs to be stretched out a bit. What planet was he born on? How was his childhood? How was his time fighting for the Empire? What'd he think of it? How was his experience in war? How long has been a merc for? It just needs some 'fluffing', make the backstory like at least three solid paragraphs, fix the other stuff and the sheet will look good to go I'm sure.
