@Burning Kitty Also approved. You can play Luke too if you want.

Cool I'll get working on Luke right away.

Moved to char tab.

@Burning Kittyis Luke a TIE pilot in this version?

In the beginning. Whether or not he stays that way is another story.

Was originally considering him being a Stormtrooper but he is a natural pilot.

Leia vs Luke who wins in when they fight X-Wing vs Tie?

@Burning KittyLeia. The X wing is a much better ship.

An inferior product can beat a superior product if the user is superior.

@Burning KittyOk, I thought you gave Leia more that just basic piloting skills.

@TheUnknowable Also, Is my other character accepted? I posted him and you didn't say if you were cool with him

@Shadow Daedalusapproved.
@Burning Kitty Luke is also approved.

If anyone else has finished a CS and I haven't approved it, just tell me.

If anyone want to join after we start, that's fine too, we'll just need to figure out how to work you in.

The diplomatic ship Leia is first seen on is clearly not going to be carrying a compliment of X-Wings. In the movie the Imperials were going to shoot down any escape pods they scanned that signs of life as evident by the conversation in regards to the escape pod with C3-PO & R2-D2 were in.

Something I have been wondering about. How is Leia going to get from that ship to Tatoonie?

@Burning KittyOk, I thought you gave Leia more that just basic piloting skills.

Leia is a great trained pilot.

Luke is a natural pilot with Imperial training.

How those compare I have no clue.

Either way one dog fight is going to have Luke shoot Leia down and another will have Leia shooting Luke down. Not necessarily in that order.

@Burning KittyWe could just say that it had a shuttle, something small but fancy enough to work as a diplomatic shuttle. Preferably something without a hyperdrive.

Guessing that the RP is now open

Anybody mind if I try making Vader? Just curious.

@SirkaithethirdYep.
I didn't have much of an opening scene, but I'll make up for that later.

@ReflectionSure, you can play as Vader if you want. His ship won't show up until after Leia meets Kenobi and they talk (and he preferably gives her a Force lesson, though maybe not), so you may have to wait to insert him. Or you can have him giving orders on his ship while they are in hyperspace approaching the planet.

Discount Han Solo looks like he might be blind in the left eye. I've seen similar coloring in movies and does look to have a scar around the eye.

The whole point of showing Vader inVadering :D the diplomatic ship was to prove diplomatic ships mean nothing to the Empire or least Vader.

Could just have Leia's ship get to Tatoonie faster than Vader's ship. The shuttle that takes Leia to the surface could have returned so Vader doesn't look on the planet for a while.

Name: Darth Vader
Species: Human/Cyborg
Age: 41
Force Sensitive: Yes
Skills: He is Lord Vader. The greatest pilot in the galaxy. Lets list off a few accomplishments, just for the... Unaware.
Master of the Darkside: Vader carries with him the power of the Darkside. The teachings of the Jedi, and all that lies between. Vader is in truth the truest embodiment of the force. Created not by natural birth, but by the complete wills of the force. As a result, he carries within himself the greatest potential to manipulate the world, no matter how broken his body may be. He is a shell of a human being, but what remains is still leagues above and beyond even great jedi.
Master Lightsaber Duelist: Vader is encumbered. His armor doesn't fit. His feet are claws in thick shoes, and his hands... Only one limb really seems to obey him totally. And yet, he is a monster. With the force and his lightsaber he is a wall that nothing can breach. Slaughtering over a dozen in a moment, and facing down greater threats than any before. In a duel he is a master of many variants of Form V, being consistently aggressive. Due to his body being barely human, he focuses his protection almost exclusively to his chest, as nothing else is vital. His form though is truely unique, in that it derives from all teachings, and thus makes itself perfect for nearly all forms of dueling.
Overwhelming Pilot: Vader is greater than Anakin Skywalker ever was as a pilot. He uses the force and his skill in tandem, able to control the battlefield completely both inside and outside a fighter. Controlling his ship with the force while he duels on the ground. It is unlikely he will ever lose in a dogfight.
Equipment: Darth Vader needs only his lightsaber. A red blade, almost... Sinister in some respects. This blade at one point has ended thousands of lives.
Bio: He is not natural. There is no father. There is only his mother, and the force. Born a slave on the planet of Tatooine, he unique even from then. Once could argue that he was... Destined for something great. At the age of three, he began to work in the shop of a creature named Watto. Who claimed ownership over Anakin and his mother. As slaves, they held no rights, only that which their owner felt kind enough to give them. But Anakin made many friends at his age. In particular a set of slave children, much like himself. In truth, he made attachments easily. To his mother, his friends, and those bonds didn't sever easily.

He was only nine when he met Mast Qui-Gon Jinn. A jedi, of course. It was Anakin who helped them when they needed it most. It was Anakin Skywalker who despite being a slave was trusted by a jedi. It was him even more so who won his own freedom. It was even he who won the battle of Naboo. And for all that, he became a Jedi under the wing of Obi-Wan Kenobi. He was special. A slave, born without a father, and trained in the ways of the jedi. His very best friend was even the supreme chancellor. In time... He even found love. For a jedi it seemed there was no rules to stop him. He was a greater duelist! His powers unrivaled! And in a way he was... Destined to fall.

All of these things can be so easily swept aside. We know the story by now. We know of temptation. We know of his anger and rage. We know of the blade that severed his limbs from his bodies and made him less of a man. We know that he is crippled...

What we do not know is the true depth of his evil. A man who once loved and cared so much, lost everything. What kind of pit must that be? What kind of empty hole must need filling? A black hole, unable to find joy in anything. Reduced from man, to mythical monster. He began life by hunting Obi-Wan Kenobi. Former master, now the symbol of his rage. His monstrous form was a result of Kenobi, and he could not rest. He hunted the Jedi restlessly killing, butchering, and slaying many would be heroes in pursuit of one jedi. There was a trap laid, twelve on one. He killed them all, laying their bodies at the feet of his emperor, and finally... He made his first appearance to the public. Darth Vader, killer of Jedi and the fist of the Emperor. In time, he became greater, his image became the face of the empire. In truth, there is no villain greater than Lord Vader.

(I'll write up the rest of the bio later. Just want to get the rest up before I forget.)

@Reflection,
Vader is only 41? Dang!
