When he turns to the Dark Side

One thing I could add is that Neomi sensed darkness in Ciale back when she was a Jedi.

That or Palpatine could of told you. They were both apprentices of Plagueis.

DaDrummer676 said Edit: When is this roleplay taking place in exactly? So I can line up the battles that have already happened. Because Spades'history is going to be entirely composed of the battles he has been in, and his special training.

Well, if I read the OP right, this roleplay takes place after the entire prequel trilogy (Episodes 1 to 3). Meaning every battle in the movies and Clone Wars series has already taken place. This is an alternate universe where the Republic lives on, but so does the CIS. And the CIS waited to build up their forces to launch a brutal attack on Coruscant, where our roleplay is centered around.

I thought Coruscant was already invaded at the start of episode 3, and, are Dooku and Grievous dead in our timeline?

Well... the invasion of Coruscant during the Clone Wars was a ploy to kidnap Palpatine in order to evade Mace Windu's investigation. The attack in this RP seems to be a complete takeover of the planet. And, canonically Dooku and Grievous are dead at this point. However, given that we're in an alternate timeline, a lot of things could've turned out differently. It's probably best to wait for the GM's word on this.

[Nariata]

Guys, sorry to report that my absence is due to a glitch with all my Internet browsers. Can't access any page besides Google. Will try and resolve fast and get this rolling!

[Rultaos]

No worries man, as long as the interest still remains high enough to keep it going =). Also, I might as well post my character here now as well. If you guys believe I should write up some Character Sheets for the other squad members, just let me know. Otherwise, I can just let their personalities be known through the course of the RP. Also, feel free to let me know if I make any mistakes lore-wise. I'll admit that I'm not the most knowledgeable Star Wars fan.

”Why don’t you try shooting the enemy instead of just spotting them?”

Name: RC-4129 “Spotter”/”29”

Age: Accelerated aging has made his age ambiguous, though he looks to be in his late thirties
Sex: Male
Affiliation: Grand Army of The Republic, Commando Squad Leader

Physical Description:

Armor

Underneath the armor, he resembles every other Clone in the GAR. Though he is bald, and has a tattoo of a third eye on his forehead.

Mental Description: Trained with his squad from his days as a child on Kamino, Spotter has a strong bond with them. He is willing to put himself in the line of fire for his squad, but he also believes them to be capable enough to complete their duties. Excelling in psychological analysis during his training years, Spotter is able to predict the behavior of both allies and enemies, and often takes that into account for his next move. As a Commando, he is hardwired to follow orders to the letter, and often will not care for the loss of allies as long as it helps get the mission done. However, he is also granted a mind slightly more independent than other Commandos to allow for advanced tactics on the battlefield. It is only when his squad is on the line that he begins to question commands. But like every clone, his loyalty to the Republic comes before any personal agendas.

History: Born and raised on Kamino, his role in the GAR was decided for him as he began commando training at an early age. He gained mediocre marks on many technical and combat exercises, and for a while they were unable to find anything special about him, other than an above average ability for psychological analysis. It was during his combat simulation training that he shined.

He showed exceptional skill in locating enemy targets and points of interest. They tested him further, and very few objects managed to escape his heightened awareness. He excelled even further when put in charge of his squad for the simulations. His skills in psychological analysis were honed, and he managed to both predict and counter several tactics thrown against his squad. His ability to spot both physical targets and enemy battle tactics earned him the nickname: “Spotter”.

His and his squad’s first taste of battle, like many other clones, was the bloodbath during the Battle of Geonosis, after being assigned into the Special Operations Brigade (as many other commandos). The confusion of the hastily ordered attack on the CIS planet resulted in many casualties, but through skill and luck, Spotter’s team, Kappa Squad, managed to get off the planet alive while completing many (though not all) of their objectives. A few superiors took note of their squad’s ability to be able to formulate and execute battleplans on the field as the situation changed, and they found themselves being sent into quite a few high-risk operations throughout the Clone Wars. They fought behind the scenes in the liberation of Ryloth, assisted in the defenses at the Battle of Kamino, and saw action on the dark moon of Umbara.

Umbara was where Spotter’s abilities were put to the ultimate test. Facing an enemy that they had little to no information about, and working with no reinforcements and jammed communications, Kappa Squad had to take in and use new information during every second of a firefight. New hostile weaponry forced them into hiding into any corner they could find and re-evaluating their situation. Once they had a new plan, they would start moving again, until another unexpected element stood in their way. Eventually, they managed to succeed in destroying an Umbaran munitions facility, and weakened the enemy forces enough to give the GAR a better chance to assault the capital. They managed to emerge from the moon alive, though they were both physically and mentally bruised, battered, and battle-weary.

They had a few other close calls, but somehow, they would always manage to get every member of the squad back alive.

Now, they are being called into action on the capital planet of Coruscant as the Droid Army makes landfall. With odds so overwhelmingly stacked against the Republic, Kappa Squad may end up being forced to choose between Orders and Brothers...

Equipment:
- Katarn-Class Commando Armor Mark-III
- DC-17m (Blaster/Sniper/Anti-Armor attachments)
- DC-15s Side-arm blaster
- Arm-Gauntlet Vibroblade
- Thermal Detonators
- Helmet-mounted Rangefinder (looks like the one on Spades' helmet in the pic)
- Breaching charges (For getting through locked doors)
- His team: Kappa Squad

Our time line mirrors the canon time line except for one critical diversion, Palpatine dies instead of lives. But what happens AFTER this will be left to speculation, or as i like to put it,our decisions.

Jasonhero, while i still find it lacking in some small areas i'll say welcome.
gcold, Hillan, welcome aboard this sinking ship ;)
ACCEPTED

Yog Sothoth, what race is that? If it is canon let me know, if it is custom PM me a sheet detailing the name, planetof origion (can be made up) and culture in a nuteshell type thing.
PENDING

shadowkiller912 Do you know of the rule of two? If so you shall seen my problem with your CS, if not let me explain. "The Rule of Two states that there would be only two Sith at one time, a Master and an Apprentice, guaranteeing that when the Apprentice becomes powerful enough in the ways of the Dark Side to take the title of Master, only then would they be worthy of the title. This transfer of power would only take place when the Apprentice takes their Master's life and finds a worthy student to repeat the cycle. Both Master and Apprentice were considered to be Sith Lords." While Palpatine trained many pupils, some at the same time(Thus breaking the rule of two), i doubt the pupils knew of this. If Dooku suspected that Palpatine had another pupil, a threat to him to eventually claim the throne from Palpatine, he would have found a creative way to be rid of this threat. Greevious was not a Sith IIRC, but a android Esq thingy that could fight with sabers. This is my understanding of the rule, if you wish to discuss than PM me ;) But until i see that PM, or notified of some changes you find yourself in this bracket.

DENIED

EDIT: OH a new one! Not like there wasn't THAT many CS's to read and analyze haha!

Welcome aboard Rultaos! If i forgot any, a simple mistake, let me know!

ACCEPTED

EDIT 2: On a side note i have begun full scale work on my CS's and, as many of you are unaware of my tendencies, they will each be rather long. So, in other terms. Brace your selves, long CS's ahead.

@Nariata

The title "Lady Noctis" Is simply a title. She has no master and simply works as a member of the Sith.

Hmmmmm, so no aspirations of becoming the Dark Lord any time soon?

[Hillan]

Sweet.

Get to fence a bitch or two.

[Rultaos]

Alright! Can't wait to blast away some droids. And maybe a CIS leader and bounty hunter if they're lucky...

So, does anyone want a Commando Squad working with them? (Or maybe against them?)

I never stated anything about it...yet. (evil face). Think of her as a dark acolyte with way more sith-ness.

[Nariata]

Oh......really? None at all (yet)? But..i had just declined you........... and i can't find anything super wrong (Save the short mental description) This means.....I have to say......ACCEPTED.

Spades can work with them, along with Jedi Morrin seeing as Spades is Morrin's second-in-command.

[Hillan]

I could see Isaac working with the commandos, too. With him having the sneaky aspects of his old ways.

[Iridious]

Rule of Two is loosely followed at best in this era. Actually, anyone from Plagueis' lineage may disregard it entirely since he claimed to abolish it.

[DaDrummer676]

I have added Spades' history, finishing his CS. I will add fluff and some other details I wanted to add later,
