Greetings, all.

I am an avid Star Wars roleplayer, and have GMed many Star Wars roleplays in my time. I even GMed a roleplay to completion on the original RPG, and would like to find that same success here. However, while normally I propose a single plot and people sign up for it, I would like to try a different approach now, where I propose several plots and allow people to vote for which they would prefer, in order to have the most user-friendly and user-popular outcome, with the most player interaction as possible. So please, if you are interested, please rank the plots in the order in which you would like to participate in them. If there are enough votes, I would not be opposed to running two.

-Large-scale conflict: The New Republic and Empire are struggling over a key star system. A number of roles can be played on the ground, in the air, in space, and in the background. This would be run roughly in the 4 ABY-6ABY timeframe, so a maximum of 1 Jedi/Dark Jedi per side would be allowed. Expect massive troop movements, big, sweeping political actions, and a lot of intrigue.

-Small-scale conflict: The Empire is planning something sinister, something which would help turn the tide of the war against the New Republic but at the cost of millions of innocent lives. Is it worth it? Play a Republic agent trying to stop it, an Imperial brutally trying to execute it, or someone caught in the middle, unsure of what to do. Again, same timeframe as above and same restrictions on Jedi/Dark Jedi.

-Scum and Villainy: We are the seedy underworld of the Star Wars universe. We live for profit, be it by smuggling, murder, or bounty hunting. We find ourselves struggling not only to make a quick credit, but also to save our lives when a series of deals finds us on the wrong side of our employer, and the law.

-Sandbox: Either taking place in a custom sector, or in the Corporate Sector, a freeform roleplay where you can be any number of characters doing any number of things, supporting any faction you wish. Looser restrictions on Jedi and Dark Jedi, this will take place in 15 ABY.

I'm up for this. Whatever the others decide for the plot, I'm game. I'd like to be a Jedi though, and it sounds like there will be some contest for that position, so I'll have to wait and see I suppose.

I am intereted in this. I would prefer that the large scale conflict would be concerning just one planet and maybe a couple of its moons. I feel like a war in a whole star system would be chaotic and there wouldn't be enough role players to roleplay and their characters would be all spread apart. Just ranting you can do what you want.
But yeah I vote for small conflict

Interested. Order of preference would be the small scale conflict, then scum and villainy, then large scale, then sandbox. Would be willing to compete for the Dark Jedi role. A few questions worth mentioning though:

Would it be better to have everyone on the same side? My experiences with player versus player role playing have been either very good, or very bad. Generally the bad types are more common as auto-mortal-hits get called or some impossible dodge gets written, etc. Particularly considering jedi/dark jedi where their weapons are laser swords and their powers range from minor healing to instant death.

Would you be open to players using a canon character appropriate to the time period? or OCs only?

*ambles off to research the timeline of star wars*

My internet is working again, I'm up for anything.

Depending on player preference it could be PvP or PvE, as it were. The Jedi/Dark Jedi roles will go to experienced roleplayers with excellent Character Sheets. As for characters, OCs only, please. I may use a canon or two for one-shot NPCs, but I usually don't.

I'm very much interested, more so if it goes the direction of a small scale conflict.

Ok, so the general momentum of things seems to be heading for small scale.

Small scale or scum and villainy.

How do you feel about untrained force sensitives? I don't mean to open the floodgates for a loophole, but I have a possible character who's kind of a one-shot wonder FS (only one real power).

What would the power be?

Bump

I like this, mainly because I'm a Star-Wars nerd. From reading this though, I'd have to say I like the sandbox idea best simply because it'd allow me to play Dradel. Doesn't technically fall into the restrictions but isn't exempt either. Regardless, I'd say Sandbox>Small Scale>Scum and Villainy>Large Scale

And yeah, I'm looking at the OOC now.

We've pretty much moved into the small-scale conflict. You can PM me about a specific character question if you wish.

I decided not to pursue this rp at this point. Sorry for getting your hopes up.

No worries.

Bump.

Still recruiting!
