Star Wars Imperial Criminals Suicide Squad-esque RP

@frapetSounds great. If you know of anyone who would be interested, feel free to point them here as well.

Star Wars Imperial Criminals Suicide Squad-esque RP

So, I think my schedule will permit me running an RP, so I'm gonna probe interest with an idea I have floating around:

The Imperial Prisoner Task Service is a program designed to give proper use to dangerous or important prisoners under Imperial control. Military defectors, dishonorably discharged soldiers, captured alien criminals, and all other forms of scum and traitors are used in this program to perform tasks deemed too dangerous for military or intelligence forces. Operating in small groups, these forces are sent in under the strict control of a handler, and combat the Rebel Alliance and other threats to Imperial security. Successful missions are rewarded via reduction of sentence terms, enticing compliance from involved parties. The program is considered a grand success, and thus many new units are being formed. You are members of one such unit. Criminals gathered from Imperial prisons all across the galaxy, given a new life of service to the Empire.

Okay, so now that the summary is out of the way, time for rules!
1. You know the drill, my word is law and all that. Just listen to me when I ask you to, and follow the guild rules, and we'll be fine.
2. Let me know if you have to disappear for a bit, just as I will if I have to. As someone with an occasionally sporadic schedule, I'm pretty forgiving if you just give me a warning first.
3. I am expecting plenty of language, grit, gore and violence, so be prepared for that. More promiscuous activities are allowed, but keep the details private and preferably off-site.
4. I'm stretching Star Wars canon a bit here, going into old EU/Legends territory as well, but try to keep your characters and activities within the common structure.
5. I expect decent writing, so no one-liners, excessive grammar issues, or 1st-person writing. I'm fine with short responses, just let me know first.
6. More Rules will be added as necessary.

Star Trek : The Journey Continues (title until I come up with a better name for it)

Figured I should at least make my presence known in this thread as well.

Star Trek: The Journey Continues

Interested, for now. I'd like to see where this goes, and if my schedule will permit me joining.

Josiah Murphy

Josiah Murphy

Character basics

Name: Josiah Solomon Murphy
Nicknames/alias: "Sarge" for those aware of his military history, "Mick" generally for when people learn of his Irish heritage.
Age: 38
Place of birth & ethnicity: Dublin, Ireland, Irish
Gender: Male
Occupation: Bounty Hunter, occasional deputy.

Character appearance & personality

Appearance: Josiah is an average-sized man, not much taller than most, and a relatively normal build. His brown hair is beginning to grey with age, and his face is wrinkling with the same. His green eyes are losing their youthful shine, dulling to a more mottled color. His muscular, but aged body bares several scars from knives and gunshot wounds, and he walks with a slight limp in his left leg.

Clothing: He wears a brown leather duster in most occasions, with a dirty bandana around his neck, an old US Army uniform shirt underneath. He wears long khaki pants tucked into black riding boots. He has a pistol holster at his belt, and a rifle sheath slung over his back.

Personal style: He generally sticks to long shirts and pants, with his usual riding boots and leather duster. In winter and cold weather he swaps the duster for a thick US Army double-breasted cavalry overcoat from the days of the Civil War.

Personality: A gruff, stern man, he hates lawbreakers and other criminals, often wanting them dead as soon as he hears of them. He's a notorious drinker, and a damn-good cards player.

Habits: When he's nervous or cautious, he'll often light up a cigar to calm his nerves. He makes a sure note to get at least one drink from the bar in every town he visits, as an odd sign of respect.

Skills and items

Regular life skills: He's strong, a good rider, great at giving orders and directing others, a good tracker, a fine cook, and a decent marksman
Combat skills: He's trained in use of cavlary sabers, revolver pistols, and repeater rifles.
Items on your person: His normal outfit, up to $10, a few cigars, a hip flask for alcohol, his Colt Dragoon revolver, and often a repeater rifle in his back sheath.
Additional stuff: A week's worth of spare clothing, his winter coat, spare ammunition for his rifle and pistol, his cavalry saber, a small framed photo of himself when he made Sergeant in the army, his horse, and a Catholic Bible.

History

What brings you to Haylliesburg: He's mainly looking for solid work as a deputy or other lawman, maybe a place to settle down. He's grown a bit tired of hopping from town to town looking for bounties, and would like a full-time job somewhere.

Your life before coming to Haylliesburg: Josiah was born in Dublin, Ireland, and lived there until he was about 4 years old. His parents had heard about the wonders of the United States, and decided to migrate there. With him, his parents, and his older brother, they lived in a small, dilapidated apartment in New York, with his father as a dockworker, and his mother schooling him and his brother to the best of her ability. When his brother grew old enough, he left their home and looked for work out west, occasionally sending back letters to tell the family how he was doing. This inspired young Josiah to want to make a life for himself out west as well, where the biggest opportunities presented themselves. However, when Josiah came of age, the American civil war had begun, and he was one of those chosen to serve. Having been one of the few inducted to serve in the US Cavalry, he took to it well for someone raised in the city. He would go on to reach the rank of Sergeant by the end of the war, and would leave the Army once the war had ended. With only his government stipend and the skills of a fighter, Josiah decided to set out west, taking up work as a roaming bounty hunter and lawman, helping towns fend off bandits, but never staying in one place for too long.

Anything else you feel needs to be added, but doesn’t fit anywhere else.

• Do the Red Dead games count...? I kid. I really enjoy most of Clint Eastwood's movies.

@ONLOh man, I'm definitely interested in this one. I'll have a sheet up for you at some point.

Allo Komrades!

So yeah, I'm new here. Just looking for the occasional roleplay when the schedule permits, so I won't be active in more than a couple threads at a time. I just figured I should at least say hello first. I doubt anyone will, but for those of you that browse imgur.com, you may have seen me there under the name ADowntroddenSovietCitizen. If that's the case, feel free to say hi.
