“Scoundrel. I like the sound of that.”
–Han Solo



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

STAR WARS: EDGE OF THE EMPIRE

It is a dark time for the galaxy. Striking from their hidden base, the Rebel Alliance has destroyed the evil GALACTIC EMPIRE's powerful Death Star. Now, Imperial Forces strike back, throwing the galaxy into war.

In the midst of conflict, countless planets suffer under Imperial tyranny. Many flee oppression to build new lives beyond the bounds of civilization.

On the edge of the Empire, these renegades struggle to survive and remain free in the midst of ongoing turmoil....

______________________________________________________________________________________



Episode I:

ESCAPE FROM MOS SHUUTA

It has a period of unrest and opportunity in the galaxy.
the Galactic Empire struggles to maintain control in
the midst of civil war. Meanwhile, scoundrels and
smugglers, explorers and expatriates, and fringers of
all types scramble for a living on the edges of
galactic civilization. It is a hard life, but these
renegades have more freedom and opportunity than
any citizen of the Core Worlds.

On the desert world of TATOOINE, a few such
renegades have run afoul of a local crime boss,
TEEMO THE HUTT. Trapped in the tiny spaceport of
Mos Shuuta, the renegades have no choice but to
steal a starship and flee Teemo's forces.
As they flee through the suns-baked
streets, the renegades duck into the local cantina
to hide from their pursuers...

All OC characters will start with a negative obligation with the main antagonist of the episode Teemo the Hutt. I will play a PC as well as NPCs. You are responsible for your PC and his/her actions. With every action is a consequence, so don't go jumping off cliffs without suffering for it. Respect each other, and my decisions when moderating the RP. Have Fun. Our characters will start off having teamed up to escape the Hutt gangster.

Hmm. I would have my guy start a brawl but that seems odd.

Alas, we must wait for the posting order to see. Causing a scene could work - if we had a ship we could access easily. But if not, it's practically throwing a wild card.

Technically they could steal a t-16 sky hopper. A spaceport like Mos Shutta would have a few of those.
I know about the order. I'm not dumb.
Why don't you post? Oh wait the new person... Who is offline right now... We could just go.

The spaceport is small, there are only two landing bays, and our characters don't know if there are ships there (a good bet that's a place to be headed soon). Aside from that you have Teemo's Palace hangar bay which means breaking into Teemo's place... anyone have a death-wish?

Alas I don't want the scene to progress without our characters, some people live in other countries and time zones. I would hate to be in the reversed role of sleeping or busy while the scene progressed without me.

My guy would go through hell to get his ship back. Does that count?
So we are frozen? If so I'm going to sleep. No point waiting if Aisling isn't on. I remember he or she had an odd posting schedule.

I think a good friend of mine is going to Germany for a study-abroad program. I know he's incredibly excited for it.

Arla


Name: Arlas'eon (Arla Sion to humans)
Race: Twi'lek
Gender: Female
Age: 21
Homeworld: Ryloth
Profession: Slave
Appearance: Arla is arrayed in little more than golden bangles and gems. She needed nothing else in the musty warm environs that the huts enjoy.
Personality: Arla is quite cynical. Her life has been nothing but hardship. Her fellow slaves spoke about how wonderful it would be to be slave to someone wealthy. Teemo changed all that. She fully expects those she helped escape to betray her or abandon her despite opening their cells.

Bio: As Ryloth is tidally locked to its star and only a thin band of the planet's surface is capable of supporting life. One half is perpetually too cold, the other a burning wasteland. As a result most Twi'lek are forced to live underground. Having evolved from simple underground dwelling mammals they have hairless bodies and keen senses. Their lekku and ear cones, at one point, compensated for their blindness, both of which have become less sensitive as their eyesight developed.

Arla was born there, her clan poor and starving in the deep caves. Only the rarest and most powerful clans able to live on the thin band of surface that isn't a hot blasted or frozen wasteland. On rare occasions she would go out and watch the "under worlders" raid the surface clans for food and valuables while the "upper dwellers" would raid the under ground portions of the planets for slaves with which to trade to the "off worlders". So it has been for thousands of years and so it is likely to continue.

Arla was taken in one such raid, just one of thousands that were used as bartering material with off worlders who have absolutely no interest in helping the Twi'lekki people get off world and establish themselves on a less gods forsaken planet. They love the pathetic needs of the Twi'lekki peoples for they are incredibly easy to take advantage of, fighting amongst themselves for the crumbs the greater galaxy chooses to fling their way. The tribe that kidnapped her sold her for a blaster, which would be of great use killing her own people and was packed aboard a slaver starship and whisked away from her home. Later, she would be sold for thousands of credits against the two hundred credits the cheap blaster would cost. Later, they would make even more credits off of the power packs which were cheaper still. Quite the lucrative deal.

Arla, like most subterranean twi'leks is an accomplished fighter with the primitive stone weapons and slings. Wood, of course, being so incredibly rare that it could not be wasted in the crafting of weapons. The women of a tribe were expected to protect it while men were away hunting for food or raiding other tribes for their supplies. She is, as one might imagine from living underground, also quite adept at skulking about in the dark.

Aboard the starship that had taken them she, along with several of the slaves, had to deal with an unknown creature in the ship's hold that was hunting down the slaves one by one. She served as bait but managed to lure it into an airlock and decompress it. It was the scariest thing she had ever done.

After that she arrived at the slave auction and was promptly tattooed. Apparently normal humans were discomfited by the Twi'leki lack of eyebrows. They also informed her that, had they time, they'd have performed a genetic augmentation upon her that they did to many Twi'Leki, replacing her cones with... human ears! The very idea disgusted her. Those strange wrinkly misshapen things on the side of human heads were so ugly!

Afterwards, Teemo made his purchase and Arla has been his ever since. It wasn't pleasant. After some years, she found opportunity when a number of unruly sorts were being held in the cells. She used her free reign of the palace to stroll down there and provide them with what they needed to escape.

Weapons: A makeshift shiv

Gear/Equipment/Items: Teemo allowed Arla no equipment save for the jewels he made her wear.

Other Notes: Arla is quite uncomfortable with technology, sometimes even having trouble with simple things like opening unlocked doors. She also doesn't have a lot of experience with the galactic standard tongue.

Obligations: Bounty: wanted captured alive by Teemo the Hutt, mainly so he can see her die for her betrayal.
