Best Chance (Band RP)

Best Chance

Music has always been important to people since it first came about millenniums ago. Starting as simple beats and using primitive instruments. Though its forms have changed much during the centuries, from simple beats to classical to modern rock and roll. Its value has never went away as it continues to inspire and give emotions to the people that listen to it.

More so to the people that make it. Channeling their inner creativity to produce music that speaks to people and things that people enjoy to listen or dance to. Often landing them with success and raising them from a small time group to famous stars that everyone knows about. The ultimate goal for anyone that wishes for success in the music business. The chance to make it and thrive and do what they love.

Though this can be a hopeful dream and can be forgotten as life gets in the way. Other interests and opportunities show up, and a person decides to do something other than their passion. Sometimes it works out and other things it does not. For one group of adults that have ended up in dead end jobs or living boring or dull lives. As they attend their high school reunion and meet up with former classmates. A chance to rediscover their lost dreams or passions for music. Forming a band to make their dreams come true and live a good life. If they can succeed that is.

Rules:
1. Expected to follow standard site rules

Overview

Hello, and welcome to the rp. In this rp, you will be playing as soon to be members of a new band in the city of Santa Fe, New Mexico. As they attended their high school reunion at the Santa Fe High School. They realized there is a chance of leaving their dull or dead-end jobs and embracing their passion, which is music. Forming a band and whether or not they can work together and succeed in the music business. This is their journey, win or not.

The setting is modern day, 2024, and while it says your character is stuck in a dead end job before joining the band. While I recommend your character coming from a dull or bad situation. You have the freedom to decide what kind of situation your character was in before going to the high school reunion. As long as it gives them a reason to see being in a band and embracing their old passion for music as a good thing and see it as a chance to get out of their situation. Risking it and failing means going back to their old situation, which they would want to avoid.

As for character details, they should generally be mid twenties age wise and have some level of musical experience with their chosen instrument/role.

Also, all instruments and roles except the drums and keyboard are open. If anyone has any questions, then feel free to ask.

Which @Fiber is my co-gm for this rp.

Star Wars Chapter 0: KNIGHTFALL

Talnel Beldwai

@Athol

Talnel listened to what Elam said and was relieved by his words. Showing a half smile. It does seem like he can trust Elam but, Talnel will not tell him everything, and while he has been wandering the galaxy for four years now. He is still new to it and has yet to make any friends or allies during his time among the stars. Not sure who to trust if he was caught as a force user but mainly as a dark sider. Which Elam knows he is force-sensitive, but not a dark sider user it seems. So his Force Stealth is still working. However, Talnel was still reluctant to attempt using a dark side power anywhere, just in case. Since it does turn out that Argent is stupid enough to try to kill someone on Mandalore.

Still, it would be nice to have a friend or at least a friendly face, as Elam put it among the stars for once. Was this the point of his vision? Meeting Elam, or is it something else entirely?

"Well, Elam, thanks for the advice and words, I mean it."Talnel let out a sigh of relief as he said it and stored the datapad away on his person. "You are right about me trying to find me a place in this big galaxy of ours even since leaving home, and I am still new to things. But since you think that the Council of Iron may help someone like me with getting a lightsaber crystal then I will try. It will be my first time meeting a Jedi, but I hope they are as cool as you said they will be and help an independent."

Meeting Jedi, that is something that Talnel did not expect to do today or ever really on the fear of them discovering that he is a dark sider. Someone destroyed Tund, and while he does not think that the Jedi aligned with Mandalore did it. He still is cautious around them regardless and with Elam's suggestion. It looks like he will be meeting some, even if they have gone native, as Elam has said.

"Also, thank you for not charging me. I just have enough to get by and probably could not afford you." The first person he trusts after leaving Tund is a mercenary. Strange how life works and what the Unity guides one to.

Well, Elam I think that is everything I wish to talk to you about." Talnel slowly got up from the couch. "If you still wish to hang out, I will probably still be around, at least for the festival." If not, then it is fine, and it will be good to have and know a friendly face in the galaxy. Especially after dealing with the Argent today."

SPIRITUM

The group does seem to be getting rather large. I think I'll have to close this RP off to any further interest, unless someone ends up dropping

@vietmyke

That mean I can join or no? Just making sure.

SPIRITUM

Room for one more? Just based on how many people were in the interest check.

So Kali looks like he is going to stay, which feels like a big mistake, but the Coven has made mistakes before. Britney comes to mind with Luca being here and being a clear example of what some of the Coven has done in the name of the greater good. The greater good, why does that sound like an excuse to do horrible things and get away with it?

Finn could only sigh at the thought, and his thoughts turned to anger when he felt a certain someone's mind tendrils try and get into his mind and by the sounds of it. Finn's mind was not the only one that they tried to get into. He sighed again, how is there going to be trust in this group when people are just using their powers on each other like this? Finn does not trust Kali, and now Edict is trying to worm into his mind, and that will not work. Finn's Emotional-Field is too strong for Edict's attempt, and he will get nothing in return.

"Yeah, I too am with Sloane," the clear annoyance in his voice. "Do not use your magic on us for any reason, and we will be fine."

The last thing he needs is to worry about other coven members messing with them while someone is trying to kill them all, but it seems like Edict cannot help himself.

Why am I here again? Finn asked himself once again. He is just getting memories on why he left the coven in the first place, and can they even find Father Wolf before it is too late with how things are progressing here? Tayla straight up left, apparently not wanting to deal with the Wolfpack. Luca tried to leave, but his curse made a quiet exit a noticeable one, and as he continued this train of thought. The last person he expected to show up was Britney.

Finn did not say anything to her, and he only had mixed feelings. While she did stick up for him when he was with the Coven. What she did to those people, Luca's life is ruined because of her. Some people here seem to have forgotten that, and Finn just gave her a cold start as he turned his attention to Stormy, another late arrival. Only Stormy made his anger known to everyone and to Britney. Time to see what happens and what Stormy does. Nothing good, he thinks.

Kzaye Zuvew

Keldabe City // Mandalore // Mandalore Sector

@KaiserElectric

"It is a nice view," Kzaye said after a long moment, sounding a bit cautious after catching a glance at her lightsaber. So, an imperial shadow and one that clearly not hiding it. It almost made him jealous. Being able to walk around without worrying about how people view them. Almost, but being subtle is in his nature after being with the Wraiths for so long a time to see how this imperial deals with a CIS official.

"One thing I will say about Mandalorians, is that they are more than fighters than what people think." He half smiled, "just take a look at this city." Kzaye motioned to the commanding sight of the city while subtlely showing off his CIS General uniform to her. "Say what you want about them, but they know how to thrive on wherever world they live on. Even battered Mandalore. He signed after saying that. It felt weird to talk about the Mandalorians like that, but it is true. They do more than just fight people and are stubborn enough to stick to living on a world as battered as Mandalore.

"Well, I just wanted to get away from the busy crowds, and this spot seemed free of them." Kzaye chuckled to himself, "A simple reason, but if you knew me, you might understand." He looked back at his guards and gave a subtle hand signal, and they seemed to relax but stood ready just in case. "But, what about you? You taking time out of the revelry to talk to a stranger and I can tell you are no ordinary person."

Once they had arrived at Elam's ship and stepped into his "office." Talnel walked inside while noting how the ship looked. He sat down on a chair and started to talk. "Nice ship you have here, Elam, and it looks as nice as mine." He said as he tried to get comfortable but, would failed to and would pull down his hood. Revealing his tattooed head.

"Well, we were talking about getting me a lightsaber, and since we were on that topic." I hope I am not making a mistake, he thought nervously. I guess you can say I am... hesitant to talk about this when someone could overhear when dealing with anything related to the force, like lightsabers. He once again tried to laid back in the chair and managed to do so. " Since I feel that Argent may find me somehow since I think they would not like me as they do with you."

Talnel signed, should he be doing this? But Argent does want to kill Elam. That is a proven fact, so maybe he can do this. "So about getting a lightsaber, you say it will not be easy, and I am not sure where to begin. But I would like to try, at some point, to get one." Talnel gave a deep breath."So any ideas, and do you want payment for this? I am unsure what to offer if so since I am not made of credits."

"Thanks for asking Sully, and I am doing okay." He said in a genuine tone. It was nice to see someone asking him how he is doing, granted the whole meeting got everyone busy. He and Bella were tight, family and losing family is never easy, no matter what.

However, the meeting has gotten worse. The last thing he expected was Everleigh pulling a gun on Kali. While he does not trust the man, killing him is not something he wants. At least he has not done anything to warrant that yet. He is just outing himself as an FBI agent in front of everyone and adding to the mess of this meeting. Bella really would have hated this, and he knows that for sure.

But with how this meeting is going, it is only making him regret returning. Like seeing how the group handles coming back, and it takes one person to mess it all up. The only thing keeping him here and not out the door at this point is finding Bella's killer. This group is probably his best chance despite how dysfunctional the Coven was. There were people here he did like and is okay with but some of the others... there was a reason he left with Bella.

So after hearing Kali out and hearing what the other people had said, the gun pointed at Kali's head is now lowered. Finn made his decision known and said it bluntly. "Well, despite what you say, Kali. I just cannot trust you, and so I am with Linqian. The things you say do not add up to me and so I vote we kick him out."

Now it is time to see how the others feel, though most seem in favor of keeping Kali around so far. Still, if Kali kept his mouth shut, then Finn would actually have no reason not to trust him. But Kali outed himself at the start, and he says what the FBI was thinking of doing to them and by his word that they did not. The thing just reeks of lies to him, but time to see if the group wants him around or not. Either way, there is nothing Kali will do to make Finn trust him at this point. FBI or not.

Star Wars Chapter 0: KNIGHTFALL

Kzaye Zuvew

Keldabe City // Mandalore // Mandalore Sector

The one time I get to go to a festival, it is for business and on Mandalore of all places. Kzaye thought as he walked through the crowds of the city. He is wearing his standard CIS General uniform but with a black cloak. An addition suggested by his second in command that will help him keep a low profile. Granted, being escorted by two guards, both apart of the Wraiths and wearing semi-conspicuous clothing with body armor underneath. However, people expect droids like the other CIS officials here and not flesh and blood guards. So he has got that going for him with keeping a low profile. Since Kzaye knows how the CIS is viewed here and something he has to deal with while he is here. Still, at least the festivities will keep people preoccupied.

Still, he can at least try to enjoy himself while he is here. The last cantina he went to only gave him a weak stink eye and accepted his credits. Though reluctantly and well, it is hard to relax when the galaxy hates you for being apart of the CIS. Reasons he can understand why and agree with. Though he can never say that out loud or risk a certain someone may start watching him.

Either way, as Kzaye navigated through the crowds. He spotted a semi-empty spot that had a great overlook of the city. So tired of the crowds, he made his way to the location, and once he was there. He leaned on the barrier as he looked at the sights. His bodyguards stood in position close by, just in case. "I have to admit this city sure is something." He sighed, "If only I could have brought Zera here," he said quietly to himself in a sad tone. But, the CIS leadership asked for the General of the Wraiths to attend without his high-ranking subordinates. So he has to tell her about this when he gets back to the Shadow.

But Zera would want him to enjoy things regardless, and who knows, maybe he can while pretending that the people here do not hate him for being with the CIS. Kzaye could only sigh at the thought as he continued to look at the sights, such as a beautiful city. It's a shame that Grievous would probably want to burn this place to the ground. He thought bitterly at the thought of Grievous. He should not be thinking of him right now. Kzaye does not want to think of him or the other CIS officials right now. Right now, he just wants to relax or at least try to.
