Hey! Sorry for the radio silence on my end but everything is going to pot over here and I haven't had a moment to sit down and write xD

I'm going to view a property tomorrow and possibly signing a lease and moving so it might be a little while before I get a reply out....or I may be able to write one over the weekend and then go quiet for a month or so xD so just wanted to let you know, rest assured that I haven't abandoned our RP and I will be getting back to it as soon as I'm able :3

Hey, no worries from me. Good luck on moving into your new place! Hope it goes smoothly! :)

*flops over* Voila! A post! :D Hopefully it's nice enough to make up for the long wait, everything has been all systems go over here the past couple of weeks O__O I'm just waiting to hear back from them about when I go in to sign the lease now and then the chaos of moving begins *gulps* XD

I had the beginning and end done fairly quickly but couldn't think of how to connect the two, hopefully this works quite nicely. Left it open for you to add anything into that confrontation before they make their way closer to the tower

Also made a couple references to the canon SWTOR Inquisitor storyline, seems like a good place to include that in XD

Boy do I KNOW what that feeling is like. When we bought our house, we were busy for weeks...still busy, actually, but not as much as when one moves in and/or has to deal with paperwork! xD
Happy to hear that everything is working out, though! Exciting times in terms of moving out, so yay for that, right?

Oh that was funny. I didn't think Aria had that kind of ability to distract her enemies, but it sure did come in handy that time. Also, thanks for the set up for Soto/spirits in the Nightmare lands. Cause you know that I'm going to HAVE to do something with that, right? ;)

Oh for sure! Especially if the provisional date they told me of "mid November" ends up being the actual date as well O__O xD It's all very exciting, and a tad scary too cause this'll be my first time living completely on my own rather than with a relative haha, but I'm keen to see how it goes haha

This sounds like its gonna be epic XD can't wait to see where you go with that :D

Aw, I'm sure it'll go well. Living on your own for the first time can be very...odd at first, seeing as you're used to having people around, but trust me, it's AWESOME. I mean, not to say that living with people isn't, but there is something to having your own place :)

Oh man, so many ideas, but also so many papers/assignments from school(I'm telling you, I'm going to scream for joy when I'm done in a few months xD). Get you a post probably tomorrow?

OH! Did you get your computer fixed? I know you were having some trouble with that.

I hope so, there's just so much to prepare for and I can't arrange deliveries or anything until I have a move in date so it's a bit stressful hahaha XD

No worries at all, whenever you get around to it, there's no pressure :3

For now it's still working yeah, it very well may die again though...it usually does. I'm convinced there's something wrong with it :/ if I have to send it in again I'm going to strongly suggest they consider replacing it as there's clearly a long-term fault somewhere for it to keep malfunctioning in the same way every time O___O

Ok so obviously that's a vision that Yerbol is having thanks to the nightmare lands. Feel free to have Ari react however you wish :)
We can probably resolve the vision in the next post or two? That way they can join the fight against the multiple Sotos xD

Oooooohhh, that is NASTY! Very nasty! I like it! *evil finger taps* I can work with this very well mwahaha though perhaps in a slightly different manner (nothing VERY bad, I promise, but it'll still be good xD)

will hopefully get you a post soon, that sounds like a good plan! :D
EDIT: in the interest of planning out the flow of this post so it doesn't seem rushed...when abouts did you want them to get to Manus? I don't wanna imply that they're getting closer if you wanted to have it go on a bit longer haha :)

Excellent! Looking forward to reading :)

Oh right, uh...how about you do your thing and then I'll start getting us closer to Manus, then you get us there?

Soooooo...I may have ran away with that a liiittlee bit :'D Sorrynotsorry, but I figure we could still work it one of two ways there, that A) Ari was ACTUALLY posssessed and forced to attack him, which is not beyond the realm of possibility in a land full of demonic entities, eh? or B) (since you kinda alluded to her clothes changing in his vision) she had a symultaneous vision at the same time where she was forced to kill and attack him and thus only BELIEVES that she did

Also, an honourary canon character appears (well...two, but Khem is well...Khem, as Ashara says XD)! Seemed appropriate to have them suddenly appear, Cheriss probably had a "bad feeling" about things and called in these two as cavalry of sorts? :') what do you think? xD

Kept Cheriss' part short cause I didn't wanna launch too far into the Soto fight before our duo caught up (plus I wrote....a lot, for the other bit and I didn't wanna spew a text wall at you LOL)

I'm totally alright with the simultaneous visions, seeing as the psychological impact of doubting what they see could prove to be interesting plot points to exploit down the line. I can just HEAR the disdain in Ari's voice towards herself. Poor thing! Ah well, they're our characters, which means they're kind of forced to put up with all sorts of awful things xD

Ashara! Wow, wasn't expecting that, which makes it a welcome surprise. Wouldn't mind trying to incorporate more canon cameos down the line, seeing as we've only incorporated...what, three characters? I think? (Elara, Saresh, Kira) Ashara MIGHT be a good fill in for Champion if/when Yerbol and/or Aria are put up for the title of Master(and after this, I feel like it won't be TOO long. I mean, come on, they've taken down Bracknell, Illesia and the Xiis and now Manus?! Give em some credit where credit's due!)

Alright, so before we go ANY further, I have to ask: are we at all willing to incorporate a larger plot angle involving Revan? Because you probably figured out that Manus' end goal (as he will reveal in the next two posts) is to find out where Revan went and basically mine him(or her if you wish) for information about what he sought to discover, seeing as Manus fully believes that to establish his vision of a "Faceless" Force, he would require power beyond anything he could find in the galaxy and that sort of thing was Revan's specialty(*cough STAR FORGE *cough*). If you'd like, we could have that be our next "Act" or we could shelve it for another time. Because Manus is gonna die. Voldon is going to make sure of that xD

Nothing good ever came out of never putting them through the wringer once in a while, eh? XD

I agree, it would be very nice to introduce some more of the canon cast from the other storylines, while it's been nice building our own thing too it is kinda strange to have them ALL just vanish like that without explaining where/what they were doing, especially the non-Force users that wouldn't have been wiped out by Bracknell and Soto the first time :D

I did indeed start angling towards Revan when Manus mentioned looking for two specific people (I figured it was Revan and the Exile, actually haha), and I think that would be a veeeeryyy good next plot point indeed! :D Big ol' yes to all of that, this is gonna be soo awesome! *slight fangirl squealing* xD

A fair point on canon characters. I was thinking about pulling Doc and Rusk in from the Knight storyline. They'll make an appearance at Voldon's funeral and hopefully we can find some way to get them involved. I actually thought for a moment: "Why can't be bring in Carth?" And then I realized that he's been dead for a long time, so there's that xD

Yep, Revan and the Exile. I don't know what to do with the Exile because the canon has her dead, but Revan alive. Maybe we have them both alive somehow? Ah well, we'll figure out that as we go. Onward!

So Manus IS a strategist after all, which means he's going to be slippery for the next post or two. Feel free to have the Faceless squadrons wiped out in your post while Voldon does battle with Manus.

I think we could work the Exile being somehow alive into it as well if we wanted, its not unplausible if Revan is still alive too after all right? :3 and it might be another cool dynamic to play around with for an Act too :)
Carth would have been awesome, had he been Force senstive or otherwise long-lived, but alas! XD We might be able to squish Atton in along with Exile though if that strikes your fancy? XD

Wouldn't be Manus if he wasn't slippery, after all! :P Sounds good, I shall get working on something this evening!

So, rather than have them all stand around passively waiting for Voldon/Manus to happen (which I thought didn't make a lot of sense lol), I made a little suggestion there via Cheriss for something our Champions could do.

Though it does involve them possibly not being present when he actually dies (could add to shock factor if they return to find it's happened? *shrug* take it whichever direction you feel works or do something totally different, I can roll with it =D)

Wasn't sure how you wanted that to end, so left Cheriss and Khem standing around in case you needed somebody else to finish off Manus after he kills Voldon xD
Man, I know we've been planning it a while but I'm still not sure if I'm ready to say bye to ol Voldon D: It's gonna be so sad haha

Yeah, that's fair! The mystics might provide some interesting revelations and segway into Voldon's death rather well. I'm so going to make sure that they at least have a chance to say goodbye...somehow xD. I'll figure it out.

Oh I know, it's sort of hard to do, but I feel like it's fitting to his character. He was a soldier on the frontlines and knew eventually that his time would come. Still don't know what to do with Kira after Voldon dies. Any ideas?

Oh definitely, I couldn't see the poor guy going out any other way!
Hmmm, that is going to be a tough one to decide...I imagine she's going to be more than a little devastated, perhaps even wanting some time off or away from Zinuthra for a while? *scratches chin in thought*

If Ari and Bol are going to be elevated to the rank of Masters and we're going to have Ashara and some of the others stick around as the replacement Champions, perhaps Kira can supervise them on some galaxy wide diplomacy missions or something? Ack, that's probably a deadpan idea but I got nothing better at the moment XD I will keep thinking about it and see what other options I can think of to put forward :)

You know, it might make sense for Kira to be a sort of traveling ambassador. Maybe she could head up the diplomatic regiments that represent the Qyaari at Alliance government meetings? *shrug*

Anywho, just FYI that another round of papers came in. Will be grading today, but tomorrow I'll have a lot of time to compose a post. It's going to be rather massive, so just warning you ahead of time xD
