mattmanganon — Roleplayer Guild

Name: Gloopra Bokater

Race: Rodian

Age: 144

Gender: Male

Appearance:



Personality: Quiet. Gloopra doesn't talk unless absolutely necessary, he see's this as making a perfect fit with his friend, Vrerr, who will talk someone's ears off if given half the chance. He has accepted his role in the order as a fighter, unfit for most other Jedi business. He is very fond of Vrerr and even though their philosophy's might be polar opposites, he respects her choices and beliefs.

Occupation: Jedi Battle-Master 

History: Born into the Pirate guilds on Nar Shaadaa, Gloopra was raised to be a Black Sun enforcer during the days of the Empire. When his force sensitivity presented itself at a young age, his father sold him to one of the other captains for 100,000 credits. Gloopra didn't resent his father for this, Pirate guilds often trade sentients like livestock, but he did resent his new captain who took him and molded him into a killing machine. By the age of 10, Gloopra was able to kill a fully grown man with his bare hands and was proficient in many forms of armed combat. As he grew and went between captains as they were killed by other captains to get this killing machine, his life knew naught but the wanton slaughter of others until he was given a very special target. Thrown into a combat pit, he came face to face with the legendary Luke Skywalker, who had been captured by mercenaries that wanted to collect the "Wanted dead or alive" bounty as put out by the Empire, specifically the first part of that.

Luke and Gloopra fought hand to hand, Luke had the force on his side, but so did Gloopra, albeit, untrained. Luke, seeing Gloopra's command of the Force spent the fight talking, rather than attacking, telling Gloopra of how much more he could be, what kinds of things he could do, how he could put his combat prowess to use for good, rather than the dark path he had been forced onto. Luke did get through to Gloopra and together, they managed to escape. Gloopra became one of Luke's first Apprentices and soon became a Jedi Knight. He was never granted a Padawan, but this was at his own request, he instead was given the task of looking after younglings and teaching others about lightsaber combat. Whilst looking through the archive's, he discovered the Barash Vow. Those who focused solely on combat and were otherwise Jedi only. He talked to Luke about taking the vow, but Luke wouldn't allow it, the order was still young and he couldn't afford to have their best fighters going off into the wilderness. So, Luke created the "Battle-Master" vow, an offshoot of the Barash vow that would allow a Jedi to focus solely on combat, but remain with the others, not take on Jedi matter's, but mainly serve as a warrior and teacher to the others on how to duel with a lightsaber. Nobody in the order being above being called in by him for lessons in combat. At some point after becoming Battle-Master, he married, although he refuses to divulge the details of said marriage, who and where they are, due to wanting to keep them safe and away from him or the frequent Black Sun attempted hits on him.

The only Jedi business he did take on was Bodyguard missions. Recently, he has been playing bodyguard to Senator Vrerr Ordo. Although she see's him as a grizzled old veteran, he has come to care for as sort of a surrogate daughter.

Equipment:
2x Lightsabers (1 Blue bladed, the other Green)
Double-Lightsaber (Purple blades)
Comm-Link
Duraplast Armour (Under his robes)
TIE Silencer (Not really equipment, but it's his ship. He "liberated" it during a raid on Seinar Fleet Systems' factories on Kuat. He had been sent to sabotage a new TIE fighter's development and found the prototype Silencer. He erased the plans from the database and stole to prototype. It has been his ever since.)

Force Powers:
Force Push/Pull
Force Telekinesis
Force Jump
Mind-Trick
Force Crush
Force Choke
Force Lightning

Skills:
Lightsaber Combat (Considered one of the finest in the order, Gloopra has spent over a century learning and honing his skills in almost all forms of Lightsaber combat, even the dreaded Juyo.)
Unarmed combat (Whilst in The Black Sun, he became proficient at brawling, but it wasn't until he gained access to the Jedi resources that he truly learned the art of unarmed combat. He is now considered one of the foremost practicioners of Teras Kasi)
Armed Combat (Everything from Vibroblades to Blasters, the Black Sun trained him to kill)
Fighter Pilot (Whilst in The Black Sun, he, like all pirates, learned to fly a fighter. Whilst in the Black Sun, his vehicle of choice was the Kihraxz Fighter, but his current fighter of choice is refitted TIE Silencer that he has been using since he liberated it from the Imperials.)

Weaknesses:
Bullheadedness (He is always right and trying to convince him otherwise is pointless)
Over Confidence (He is VERY good at what he does, but he constantly underestimates opponents due to them being younger than him.)
Over Protective (He will often put himself in harms way completely unnecessarily in order to protect Comrades that probably didn't need protecting.)

Name: Vrerr Ordo

Race: Mandolorian

Age: 32

Gender: Female

Appearance:



Personality: A woman of many words and little restraint, Vrerr is a diplomat that is used to her words being able to shape nations and so, although she will not hesitate to tell people what she thinks about them, she will also choose her words very carefully. Born into a family that supports Mandalore's new pacifistic path, she has an intense and deep loathing for anyone who would call themselves "Mandalorian" that fights for honour. That being said, she is no fool, she knows how to defend herself, but will not be the one to engage in hostilities. She is also a medical professional, so, when combat is upon her, her usual strategy is to dive for cover whilst her bodyguards sort it out, taking care of the injured, however she will not hesitate to throw herself into the fray in order to rescue an injured comrade and drag them to safety.

Occupation: Senator

History: Born into the Mandalorian Aristocracy, she grew up within the walls of the capitol city, Sundari. Her family was a staunch supporter of the return to their pacifistic ways, from before the Clone Wars, that had seen a growth of culture and an attempt at restoring life to the blasted world of Mandalore. She learned from many of the great minds of Mandalore, studied and graded highly in university. She had originally trained to be a Doctor, but shortly after earning her degree, her father forced her into politics. Not that she minded, helping people in the political landscape was just as important as helping them in the surgery room. She was quickly accepted into the major political party and, before she even knew what she was doing was made into the voice in the senate for Mandalore.

10 years later, she has seen a lot of reforms, not only on Mandalore, but in the Republic as a whole. Mandalore is undergoing Terraforming and already, one of the continents has grass growing in places. Naturally, she has been the target of several "Mandalorian Reborn" attacks, those who wish for Mandalore to return to her warrior past. She asked the Jedi Order for protection and Battle-Master Gloopra was more than happy to oblige her. Her latest venture is to bring Gamorria into the Republic's fold. As such, she has gone to conduct important negotiation with the closest thing the planet has to "Government officials" in the local Crime Lords and Gangs.

Equipment:
ELG-3A Blaster Pistol
Comm-Link 

Skills:
Medical Doctorate (She is a fully licenced surgeon and doctor) 
Speechcraft (After a decade in politics, she knows how to talk to people to get them on her side.)

Weaknesses:
Lack of combat prowess (She knows how to shoot a blaster and that's about it. She's a pacifist that lacks any formal combat training, relying on others to do it for her.)

Also, a Star Sapphire Ring can help to overcome the Red Lantern's heart takeover. In Darkest Night, Guy Gardner takes a Red Lantern ring, but a Star Sapphire ring also bonds to him, telling him that it'll stop the Red ring from consuming his heart.

Anyway, I would love to get in on this and have MANY idea's of what i'd love to play, but sadly, can only do 1... See, my favourite lantern is Mogo, and i'd love to do something along the same lines as far as "Non-conventionally sentient gets Lantern ring" idea goes. The other thing i'd love to play is a generally non-superpowered character. Way I see it, the Rings are so powerful, if it comes down to 2 Ring-bearers fighting then, regardless of what other powers are at play, whoever is most attuned to their ring's spectrum, will be the winner. So, here's a few idea's that I had:

Orange Lantern:
Ego (I know, he'd be insanely OP, but he'd be fun to play)

Indigo Lantern:
Lockjaw (I'd love to, but sadly, he can't talk, making him a bit difficult)
Aunt May (She is nothing if not compassionate)
Anti-Venom (The argument could be made that all Anti-Venom ever did was for the benefit of its host. Anti-Venom moreso as it wanted to cure all of its symbiotic siblings.)
Rom The Space Knight (His compassion was so powerful that absorbing it is what turned Rogue good... It's true, look it up. She was just an evil henchman of Mystique, until she tried to absorb Rom's powers.)

Star-Sapphire:
Mary-Jane Parker ("Go get 'em, Tiger.")

Yellow Lantern:
Frank Castle (Because why not?)
