Google docs works for me without paying so if anyone wants to collab hit me up with a link or I can hand you one.

Currently Xid's a little occupied...and Jayda's likely going to be getting out of the Kolto Tank soon.

[Sundered Echo]

My my... I think we might need to write another collab Rtron.

This will be fun.

[Rtron]

It will indeed.

[Kentsukan]

Oh boy.

[Rtron]

Kentsukan said
Oh boy.

That's right. FEAR WHAT WILL COME OF THIS MEETING. FEEEEAAAAR IT!

[Sep]

Guide is still free... will probably throw up a solo post.

[Sundered Echo]

Sounds good Sep.

As a Sith you can still ask any of the free Jedi players to collab with you anytime you want, only a few of them actually ask to be tortured by someone specific here...

Or in some cases, like Xid and Jayda, they get dragged into it. Lol, anyway I'll send a collab start for you to Guide with Jayda walking along the hall I route to both watch and erase any unsavory evidence of something she didn't know herself existed. :P We can figure out stuff from there.

[Ellri]

There's nothing wrong with "inviting" a prisoner to torture by posting up a post involving him/her.

We'll get our net in a few days (friday-ish), and then we'll get more posting done.

[Ellri]

Despite not having net, we've thrown in an IC post.
Jedi: Consider yourselves moved.
Sith: You have a new toy.

Mirth's character has been approved. CS will be posted in the CS thread soon(ish).

Note: You may not use fire on the new toy. And no herbicides either.

New cells are listed here:

[Sep]

Who and what are you? From where do you come, to where are you going? Tell us about yourself.
I am Tyrone a Besalisk however I was born and raised on Coruscant and spent my first years in the undercity until he was taken on to become a Jedi.

Few men truly serve more than one cause. Sure, you might pay lip service to many and support others, but which cause do you serve most? The Galactic Republic and the Jedi order, or the glorious Sith Empire?
I fight for the Galactic Republic, and the Balance of the Force.

Eyes grow weak with age. They cannot see you clearly. Would you kindly describe what you look like and the sort of clothes you wear?


About 6 foot 4 tall, broad shouldered and covered in muscle obviously trained as a warrior.

Now you have described somewhat about yourself, but you have not covered why you fight. Is it out of idealistic belief, or is it something else?
He once fought for the Jedi Order and the supposed balance of the Force that they so ideally believe. He became a warrior fighting for the light, He knew that when it came time for peace to blossom that my time was over and he would no longer be necessary for anything and just be part of the past and there was nothing he could do about that.

He grew up in the undercity so he was used to the poverty that many do not know. He was used to fighting to survive and doing what he must. At five years old he

He was discovered by a Jedi and brought into the Jedi Order. He served faithfully for twenty years until he began to doubt the logic of the Jedi Order and my status went from a Jedi to Gray Jedi as he began to use some unorthodox methods. While many saw this as him becoming more like the Sith he saw it as returning to the Jed’aii roots.

Surely you are not like everyone else. What sort of skills make you stand out from the rest?
I am skilled in melee combat and lightsaber combat.

You have not been in touch with the rest so far. How do you relate to them? Are there any friends of yours among them? any enemies? Or perhaps you even have family therein?[b]
Among some of the Jedi at the temple I was seen as a bit of a rogue element compared to many other Jedi however I have no select enemies or friends as I am not the type to make friends, especially with most Jedi as I see them as stuck up and arrogant and prefer the company of soldiers.

[b]The past makes you who you are. What sort of events made you the one you are?
Tyrone was born on Coruscant in the undercity where he was one out of a hundred. He was born into the slums of the planet that everyone on the surface didn’t really care about. Not even the Jedi who were supposed bringers of peace and prosperity in the galaxy were really concerned about what was going on elsewhere in the Galaxy. He grew up having to fight for what he needed and doing what he must in order to get what he needed solely to survive as the poor in the slums received anything. It was a hard life, a tough life. However it made him who he was today.

When he was five years old he was found by the Jedi Order when a spice smuggler was wreaking havoc in the undercity and during this time Tyrone was found as he was picking pockets by using the Force to remove credchips from other peoples pockets. Of course one of the first lessons he learned was how stealing was a crime and it was not to be tolerated as excessive amounts of money could lead to greed which would corrupt him to the dark side. As an Initiate he was always the one with the street smarts, and was the strongest in terms of physical ability. He was chosen to become a Padawan before the war and became renowned for his less than ordinary methods for dealing with situations however he did not actually become changed until during the war.

This is when he saw the Sith and what had become of them. They were self destructive and violent and wanted to take control of the Galaxy Here he saw that the Jedi were practically the other side of the coin as while the Sith were devoted to the Darkness the Jedi were devoted to the light and he himself felt that a Galaxy in either side was doomed to fail for prolonged periods of time and that nothing good could come of it. He began to change ever so slowly when he researched the old Jed’aii order and how it was devoted to the balance and bringing it to the Galaxy, the Jedi apparently supported the balance however he knew, he had seen that they didn’t really. While he didn’t turn to the dark side what he did do was become grey, which is why shortly before the sacking of Coruscant he had been returned back to the Jedi Temple for evaluation which is why he was in the temple when it was sacked by Sith Forces.

No good character is without his or her flaws. Nobody’s perfect. The heroes, be they good or evil, tend to have more blatant flaws than the tagalongs. What be thine flaws?
My Force abilities are limited to Telekenesis and basic sensing.

No matter if you are a Jedi or a Sith, you probably made a lightsaber once upon a time. WHat does it look like?
He had a regular blue bladed lightsaber and a yellow bladed lightsaber pike. The bottom half of the pike can be dropped at the push of a button (in the Force)
If you wield a Lightsaber, which of the Seven combat forms has your order trained you in?
Soresu as an Initiate, Djem So/Shien, Ataru and is profficient at dual wielding.

What sort of person are you? Do you use the Force for combat, or do you prefer to wield its more mystical branches? Is there something you excel at above all other things? Is there something you are hopelessly bad at? What limitations do you have?
Don’t forget that this is in the middle of a war. Anyone of truly great skill would have been at or near the front lines.
Due to my size and shape I am a terrible pilot, I am also not the strictest follower of Jedi Doctrine

b) You are Jedi. Yet you have not been held with the other prisoners. Why not? Were you captured elsewhere? Did you just get captured? Or have you simply been isolated till now?
I have been in treatment due to extreme injuries up until now, extreme burns and a concussion.

Is there anything else you would like to mention about yourself?

[Ellri]

Ok. we know you decently by now, so we're not holding back criticism.

1. Are you sure you have capacity to manage another character as well as all your other RPs?


2. If he was so heavily injured, considering Darth Nyiss' dislike of non-sith/non-humans, why would they even bother trying to heal him? Non-humanoids are seen as considerably less than humanoids, let alone humans or red Sith.


3. Another gray Jedi? There seems to be a bit many gray Jedi now. Part of the purpose in this here RP is to explore the differences between Sith and Jedi and see what happens when they're pushed hard, not to play with the balance point between light and dark.
   Turning someone already on the edge is no achievement for the Sith. A real achievement is to take someone pure light and turn them utterly to the dark side.


4. You've been in this RP. You should be above the point where you try to skip out on the point about having prior relations to the other prisoners. Make up some, Sep. And don't do it half-heartedly.


5. Another warrior into this non-combat based RP? what's the point? And what in the name of the Emperor was he doing away from the front lines?


6. Expand your flaws. A single sentence is just sad.


7. Four lightsaber styles? Again, what was he doing away from the front lines of the war? Such range of skill would've had him stuck there. Not anywhere close to the Coruscanti Jedi temple.


8. Your reason for not having been seen before: Pathetically lacking in detail.


9. His appearance: Why is he naked?


10. Almost everything: Why? Why is it so? Explain. Just because he's large doesn't mke it impossible to be a good pilot. Four arms make up for that, and a ship can easily be built with an otherwise oversized cockpit.
    Why was he captured? How? When? Where?

We could go on, but we're pretty sure you get the idea.

[Sundered Echo]

I agree with Ellri on the count of there needing to be... more. You're a good writer Sep, you can manage more detail than that.

Not sure about the gray thing Ellri, most of our Jedi are quite Lightsided already, Xid, Viera and Strago being exemplars of Light and the others only looking gray mostly because we've made them that way with torture.

I do have to say the reason for being there in particular is lacking. Until the sacking of Coruscant the Jedi were embroiled in open war, a war which, incidentally, they were losing. Unless you started acting like a Sith or went totally rogue, the results you got on the battlefield would be what were considered, not your apparent gray nature. Research into the old ways is hardly a point to alarm the Jedi at this point as they, like the Republic, were searching for every edge they could get over the Sith.

Also, I agree with Ellri on the idea of why exactly you would be kept alive. While it is nice to see some more exotic aliens, the Sith empire is (like it or not) quite racist right now. They'd leave a heavily injured Besalisk to die unless he really impressed someone important first, like Nyiss or Jewel, who both took direct part in the sacking and capture of Jedi. That right there is a possible connection, maybe one of those two captured you personally.

[Ellri]

The bit about gray thing is that he appears to have "decided" already. He doesn't have any interest in changing at all, because he "knows" all about differences between Jedi and Sith. The impression we got is that he's got no room to grow.

Jedi that are open towards considering less than crystal-clear light side options is quite different from those that already have decided to stay at a mid-point.

EDIT:
We got net working at home today. Finally we can focus on advancing the RP more.

[Squrmy]

I'm tentatively interested in this; it's been a while since I've done anything Star Wars related, so I'll be relatively rusty.

I'll get up a sheet sometime over the next few days, if you're still looking for new Jedi.

[Ellri]

Excellent. We are always open for more Jedi.

Rust can easily be polished away.

[Ellri]

Nice post, Frettzo.

[Frettzo]

Thanks :p

[Sundered Echo]

The plot is thickening...

[Ellri]

We hereby release a suitably large dose of GM laughter. You may cringe in fear, players.
