I'll try anything once. Sounds fun! I'd definitely be interested.

Sorry guys. Yes I would say this is dead.
I think it was really bad timing on my part to have started this RP when I did. I knew I was heading into a busy few weeks but naively hoped I could get this up and running on it's own so I'd only have to post occasionally until I was un-busy again. Having run RPs in the past, I should have known that wouldn't work as the first few weeks/months are usually the time when the GM needs to post the most to get everything moving.
News-wise, the reason the last couple of weeks has been so busy for me (aside from the Pantomime I already mentioned, which went very well!) is that I have been busy preparing to ask my girlfriend to marry me. Which I did on Tuesday. And she said yes! So I'm -now- going to be busy sorting out weddingy things and engagement parties and whatnot.
So thank you to everyone who tried to get involved with this. If you liked the concept, feel free to steal it and go make your own. I might even try to join it, as I think it might be a better idea if I was posting as a player for a while rather than a GM. Less time requirements!

I'm still waiting on a couple of people for IC posts, but I'll put up one of my own to move things along in a few hours anyway. Sorry I've been quiet since Monday, been down with flu and dragging myself through pantomime performances in the evenings. Tonight's a night off, then two more shows on the weekend and I'm done!
There's no rush. I'll probably be a bit slow myself this week as I've got six more Pantomime performances!
@SashaDark: Don't worry about it. Glad to have you back!
@TheMagician: Accepted! Feel free to post in the IC when you're ready, and don't forget to copy your CS over into the 'characters' tab.

So im guessing no Jedi or Sith's ?
Correct. I've said I don't mind force-sensitive characters, because in the Star Wars universe it often seems like almost everyone is a little force sensitive without realizing it, but no-one who has been actively trained in the use of the Force at this stage.
@CorruptedShadow's character is probably the best example of the maximum level of Force capability a character should possess, and he's basically just a massive fanboi. In fact, if he ended up being a founding member of the Church of the Force I wouldn't be remotely surprised...
@BrodZ11711 Yep. Just post up a CS and I'll look it over.
@TheMagician The thing with Bounty Hunters in this particular RP is giving them a reason to not be bounty hunting any more. The Rebels and the Empire both hired Bounty Hunters and mercenaries in swathes during the Galactic Civil War, but they were always as hired hands and not as members of the rank-and-file. This RP will very much focus on the rank-and-file, so they're a bit difficult to get in.
Clawdites are fine, though. There's not huge amounts of information on exactly what their shapeshifting abilities can do, but I'm happy to discuss your character's limitations with you either here or via PMs.

As the shuttle finally settled on the landing lad, the rear doors opened and the dozen or so passengers inside peered blinking out into the daylight. Zyrell waited patiently as a Sergeant walked over with a pair of guards and began barking orders into the shuttle, directing the startled recruits to form a line in front of their new commanding officer. Sure enough, the new arrivals slowly shuffled out of the confined space of the spacecraft and formed themselves into less of a line, more a horseshoe shape around Zyrell. In the back of his mind he was reminded of the sort of screaming that his own Drill Sergeant had issued when the cadets could not form a simple line, but he resisted the urge to let fly. After all, if his short time with the Rebellion had taught him anything, it would be that the Imperial way was not always the best one.
"Good morning, recruits. Welcome to Corellia. My name is Captain Zyrell Nalto and I am the encumbent Commandant of Aurek Base, tbe camp where you'll be put through your basic training. I expect for some of you, this will be a mere formality..." Zyrell paused for a moment, this last phrase seeming to be aimed towards Talen-Jei. He had worked alongside many a Trandoshan hunter in the past, and it seemed like the creatures where bred for combat. He had no reason to think this one would be any different, if his personnel file was even half true. He then sharply turned towards the Ithorian with a condescending smirk. "... for others, this will be a test of whether or not you have what it takes to fight for the cause. But worry not. If you are found to be unfit for combat, the Alliance still needs mechanics, doctors, shuttle pilots... every man and woman here will have the chance to make a contribution, one way or another. Sergeant Xesh?"
"Yes, Captain?" The Weequay Sergeant stepped forward, holding his rifle with one hand as he snapped off a sharp salute. Unlike Zyrell, he was wearing the urban camo variant of the Alliance uniform complete with helmet and carrying all of his field gear with him. The Sergeant always had the look of a man who expected a battlefield to erupt around him at any given moment, and today was no different.
"I'm sure their shuttle ride was long and cramped. Can you take them for a short run to shake off the cobwebs, then off to the barracks to get themselves settled in? I want them all down at the shooting range and ready for drills by 0900." Zyrell replied with a slight grin, relishing the ripple of a moan he heard rush through the crowd at the mention of running. He once again thought back to his own Academy days and how much he despised running laps. It was good to be the one in charge for a change.
"Aye, sir! RIGHT! YOU 'EARD THE MAN! STEP TO IT, MAGGOTS!" The Weequay barked as he and the two other soldiers took up their positions, herding the new recruits into something more resembling a straight line before jabbing them roughly with their rifles to get them moving.
