@EliteCommander It happens before the rescuers identify the Kaggath, yes. But if someone successfully escapes (that aren't a dropout), chances are they'll end up with the rescuers, which in turn will mean that the rescuers will have a magnet of sorts to find that needle in the haystack.
Its been annoying us how the plot has prevented you and @EliteCommander from participating fully, @cqbexpt.
We've begun rehashing out the escape plot, so anyone wishing to be involved should notify us, so we know what to tag your characters as (or what NPC roles you might be fit for).
Who among those playing prisoners wish for their characters to escape? (players, that is. The characters obviously wish to escape)
Who among those playing prisoners wish for their characters NOT to escape?
Who among the Sith wish to be involved in thwarting escapes?
Who among the people playing rescuers wish to aid this plot in other fashions? (like playing one-shot NPCs that cause the plot to move along)
I don't want Denso to escape.
Vivithe would be up for thwarting escapes, would give her a chance to gain all kinds of info. She wouldn't charge the rescuers head on, but rather try to stop some of the prisoners, the ones she's interested in most.
Actually, @Sep, we'd like a reminder. We didn't note down every bit of information earlier.
In our notes, we've got it written with Koren Escaping and Egren being captured. Is that acceptable/correct?
@Dblade26 & @Heat: Results taken into account (Khan Sainen "let the events decide" | Denso "No escape for you today")... Do you wish for your characters to be involved in the escape attempt, or do you wish for them (for whatever reason) not to be apart of it?
?!? What did I do? >_> If I need to edit or something, this week is the time to have me as I'm staying at my Aunt's house currently. So I have net for about 2-3 days most likely.
Xid's time-traveling, @Fallenreaper. He's doing stuff in that 15-minute period up till 1300 GST in two different posts. And Sep's overreacting in a highly overdramatic fashion.
Just shift your timestamp forwards a bit so it starts at 1300 instead of ending at that time and it'll all be good.

Alright, and I'll do that no problem. Currently in the chatroom if anyone wants to see me.
Honestly I'm on the fence as to whether I'd want Khan to escape...
Could always do what I'm doing, and see who goes after your PC and how badly they want to prevent them from escaping? Sadly, I think Jayda would allow him to escape. In addition, you could have him escape then be recapture much later while being chased down on planet or in their shuttle? It would give you a little of both really.

Some of them anyways...
Nyiss: When I think of our mysterious guest, the Darth upon this ship, I’m ashamed to say anger and sorrow run deep in my veins. Namely because I know she killed Sela back in the Temple, my regret was that I wasn’t there to help her and maybe give her more of a chance. One thing I noticed was that Tolun Fi and her share a logical mindset, but while his is purely light… hers is much darker. Something that reminds me of him, a factor that is easily a black mark on her reputation and makes my skin crawl at the thought. What she needed with Jedi test subjects is a mystery to me but I can be sure of thing thing: it’s nothing good for any of us.
Jewel: Jewel Namore, a Sith I will much rather avoid. Set firmly in darkness, she feeds off questioning morals and doubt. Often finds pleasure in setting those to a level below herself making me suspect she falls short in some aspect when it comes to herself. A method, oddly, to increase her worth in her own eyes through I’m pretty sure any attempt to destroy those habits would quickly earn her ire. Something likely best avoided if she’s really hiding her own monster in public as close doors would only encourage it to come out.
Vivithe: A manipulator who seems to thrives off emotional stress and control, both proven when she originally took me to see the deceased wife during the encounter. I think I got a sense of enjoyment from her which I found unsettling. That knowledge only made me feel sicker, even worse knowing I still gave her what she wanted. I will make a mental note for next time and see if I can ask Koren or Tolun to help me temper this emotions before she comes for me again. At least I had the pain to focus on during the confrontation with the soldier's wife though why a Sith would subject a grieving widow to that sort of torture is beyond me, unless the woman was a bribed actress. Still, the emotions seemed genuine enough to be real I'm just not so sure. She doesn't seem very combative as I noted her struggles in holding off the woman and a few times the emotional individual managed to break free of her grasp, something I should likely explore in the future to test if she really is combative lacking. Though how, I need to debate on the actual method. At least that's something to get my mind off my emotional stress.
Miasa: Part of me wishes Miasa was like Sish, then she would be much less dangerous. She is patient and cautious, a machine designed to benefit in lengthy methods rather than rush into solutions. Sloppiness and emotional triggers are unlikely to be useful against her as she knows in time her methods will have some type of effect. Miasa doesn’t thrive on pain, suffering or manipulation in a way Jewel or Vivithe does. Instead she expects influence, be it her own or another source, to gradually win and that is the hardest thing to outlast. However, she does have her own flaws. She is impatient with machines and over cautious, something I could likely use against her when the time is right.
Ven’ren: A broken machine, there’s not much to say since I don’t even think I would know how to fix him myself. His programming seemed to have been pushed and pulled to the breaking point that I’m slightly amazed he’s not dead. Or worse. His unpredictability is a worrisome factor as I have trouble determined if he’s an ally or a enemy, something very deadly on this very ship. I have hope, against my logical judgment, he can be saved but I don’t think he’ll ever be the Jedi he was once was. Something I feel depressed about but know it to be true.
Jayda
Jewel : Jewel Namore, a dangerous and stealthy woman, she is a prime example of why I should be wary of Sith Lord that methods different from Sish's. At least the shit-eating lizard is forward with his motives and though she is honest when it benefits her, even she withholds more information then I find comfortable. All my instincts are on edge around her and scream to be aware, even when I believe it's safe to let it down. However, unless she turns her sights upon my death or robs me of my revenge, it might be best to merely gain what I can and move on. I just hope I don't later found myself in a situation I can't get out of in the end.
Vivithe: Another Sith Lord who has me on edge. It was my first encounter that was enough to show me how badly I lacked finesse to exist in this world people like her and Jewel have woven, which means to survive I will have to adapt. If Zanna is right and 'Lady' Lansha has taken interest in me, I have little idea why, and until I learn the reason it is best I tread very carefully. I can only guess the reason is because she's curious about Sish's apprentice and wondering if I was as dangerous or dim as he seems to act, but only time will tell in the end. I am a fast learner after all when it comes to surviving.
Miasa: Miasa isn't what I expect of most Sith, her methods are more patient and fartherest one can from Sish's type as possible. It's like getting sized up by that Golia, a giant fish like serpent with a monstrous appetite back on Iridonia, which wasn't fun. Not the easiest rites I engaged in, especially when it spat acid at me. Her patience, while beneficial, could ultimately cost her more than she can gain if she doesn’t just moderated it. Instead she goes full defensive. However, I can admire her mastery of Soresu as few Sith have ever seen it worth learning or appreciate the usefulness of the pure defensive application.
Ven’ren: Upon meeting Ven’ren, he unnerved me some. His erratic behavior and rapid mood swings at the slightest provocation forces me to be on guard at all times. However, there is something we both have in common. We both are outsiders to the world of the Sith and hang between two elements, caught in the middle where no one wants us to linger. Despite the most important factor connecting us, that’s where the similarities end and good enough reason to avoid contact as much as possible. A broken mind does more harm than good in the end.

We talked about this Ellri other people are also feeling left out and put off by their inability to be included in a post when most of them feel they would at least go into the room when he yelled.
I know it is sad to waste a post but I thought we had reached that agreement. It was to let people feel less stuck, including myself as I can't fill in that time gap with fear of overlap or contradiction.
