Dead, he is dead. The King of Gods, is dead. Struck low by an assassin’s knife, though the Assassin himself will know torment as few others have felt. Still we are without a leader, a vacuum of power threatens to throw our world into Chaos. Ariakath now stands without a true ruler, the Gods of the different nations living among their mortals, and each pondering who they should swear fealty to, or vying for power. Should we not come together, and decide on a new King then everything will be gone forever. With the death of the King the Barrier between the Mortal Realm, the realm we rule as Immortal stands to fall to, and to let loose upon our creation the Maruk. The deaths of our creations would surely follow this. So we must decide! Someone must become King of the Gods, through force, or through Fealty.
OOC Information
The world of Arikath created by a Pantheon of Gods who live among those Mortals they created. They each rule a different domain, and each live in nations devoted to those domains. This world while ruled by many Gods ultimately had one true King, and the King of the Gods was named Rieth, his domain being that of the Immortal. Any being that lived forever was under his rule. He had created another race of beings though, one weaker than the gods, but more populated. These were known as the Maruk, but their hatred of life and violent tendencies began to destroy the world. Rieth then retreated into a dark place within the world, and called up powers as he never had before, he created children liken to himself to rule the lands once he banished the Maruk. Using a great power he forced the Maruk into another plane of existence, and created a barrier to keep them there. This barrier though required his constant presence in the heavens above.
It was here that Rieth ruled the other Gods from, no longer able to interact with the mortals, but rather he created a Utopia filled with Immortals of all sorts. This was all while his children ruled on the ground in the mortal world, toiling under the constant supervision of their father as they cared for the world he had created, caring for the mortals that were there children, that they had to watch slowly wither with age, and die. Over time though the Maruk created a small breach in the barrier, a single assassin escaping through. This assassin murdered King Rieth in his sleep. With the King’s death the barrier begins to fell, his powers waiting to be taken by one of his children. The only way for one of the Gods to take his power is for all the others to swear fealty, or those that don’t to be destroyed. Will the Gods come together and resolve the matter peacefully? Or will there be war among the Gods? Can they have a new king? Or will the Realms fall into an apocalyptic war between immortals.
In this roleplaying you will be taking on the role of a God or Goddess, picking their domains, and creating their people, cities, and lands living with them, sharing your life with them. You see them on the streets everyday, and they are able to worship you in person. You will rule them benevolently, or ruthlessly. You will be part of the race as all the Gods decide on who will become their new King. You can toss your own bid into this, or support or another. Will you fight for rule? Fight for another to rule? Try to solve things peacefully? It’s up to you.

Also just because you have a major domain in one of those areas doesn’t mean you can’t have traits of a different domain. For instance if your domain is war, it doesn’t mean you can’t be honorable.

The hard work and preperation to go fight a dug in group of Trade Federation droids, they had been bombarding them for days, and had finally decided to end the siege. Just before marching though they suddenly had found themselves in a strange place, what seemed to be the family room of a home, except for in this case their entire force was small enough to fit atop a coffee table. Master Van looked around in circles, staring at the ceiling, staring at all the enormous furniture around him and frowning heavily. "Damn. Where are we? Ace give me readings." He said as he turned towards a clone trooper passing close by.
"Of course General Van, we are reading everything as normal, except especially high levels of energy coming from a metallic plate set in the center of this platform. We are reading life signs nearby north, and east. Troopers have seen several examples of these life forms across this platform from us on that other structure against the wall with the large screen." He says pointing towards several rather primitive looking beings staring over at the new arrivals. All around Clone troopers were going about the business of checking vehicles, and each other. Jedi were meditating trying to sense something new, anything.
"Well.. Let's get defenses set up. I want artillery ready for anything! Troops beginning patrols. I want the underside of this platform barricaded with whatever you can find." He turned and looked towards his fellow Jedi before walking towards Viiila and giving a deep sigh. "Get me three LAATs in the air. Ten troopers each accompanied by a Padawan. I want one going up those stairs, one into that hall over there, and one heading into that open area." He said pointing last towards the dining room. "No landing.. No interactions with anyone, simply scout out, and if things get dangerous have them come home. Combat only in defense."
Staring for a few moments was the only thing Viiila could do in response, finally as Master Van began to walk away she spoke up. "Master What about the other local denizens. To the north, and to the east?" She asked with a raised brow.
Master van stopped for a moment and went deep into though. "Send Keflo and a hundred troopers to the north. You take a hundred and go east. Meet with these people learn who they are and see if we cannot come to agreements while we are stuck here. If either of them give you a hard time, or attack you. I want you to defend yourself as needed. Make them become more docile through force."
A look of surprise and concern grew across Viiila's face and she slowly shook her head. "Master Van, I fear how much of a military man you are becoming." She turned, and began going about her duties as she was commanded. The entire while vehicles were being moved around, AV-7s positioned evenly around the table all of them ready to fire at a moment's notice. Other vehicles were being moved to underneath it as troops began to make up quick barricades that they pulled from inside of their tanks, and setting up automatic heavy blasters atop them to use against any enemy infantry. Missile troops were on guard as well prepared for anything stronger. In the meantime the sound of troops preparing to go forth out into the unknown.
Padawan Kalla Voon Scouting Sectors 6, 7, and 8
The stairs were a blur underneath the LAAT as it flew as close to the ceiling as possible, Padawan Kalla standing on the edge staring at the rather primitive mechanical constructs that had been built by the locals. Pursing her lips she shook her head a bit, her thoguhts going a hundred mile and hour as she considered the possibilities of how they had ended up in such a place. She spied several of those primitives moving around and pointing up at their ship as they passed from sector six into sector seven, she let her eyes gaze over the view of the laundry machines and shook her head with a laugh. "This is... So surreal." Her head turning slightly as she for a moment spied something that looked like a very large reptile off towards a rather large doorway.
Quickly though the LAAT was in sector 8, and Kalla found herself staring at a rather large, more modern force as far as her own group's technology was concerned, though it seemed more of a mix of old and new. Men in a rather uniform military appearance, large tracked vehicles, as well as aerial ones. She pursed her lips for a moment, and pointed. "Get us closer. I want a better look." Slowly the LAAT got closer to the doorway leading to Sector 9, and Kalla stared at the people within, and slowly shook her head. "Alright. I think it might be best to head back and report what we have found."
Padawan Taka'Ki Scouting Sector 5
One of the easiest scoutings, this was a direct neighboring area, though it didn't seem to be too large. Regardless it needed to be done, and Taka'ki had been chosen for the job. She sat at the edge of the open side of the LAAT as it moved at a rather slow pace into Sector 5, going towards the open bathroom door first, the ten troopers either holding onto bars on the ceiling of the LAAT or manning one of the many guns that armed the aerial vehicle. As they entered the area though, it was obvious that it was already populated, by what seemed to be enormous humanoids wearing metal armor, and carrying massive weapons, as well as rather demonic looking beings.
A frown came across her lips as she stood up and waved a hand. "Gain a bit of altitude but I want to see what these guys are up to." The strange warband seemed to be going into the bathroom, over the sound of the LAAT's engines she could even hear the shouts and roars of their fury, she felt anger and hate from those men down below, a supreme bloodlust that almost overwhelmed her senses. "These creatures.. They are consumed with the dark side."
Padawan Davan Scouting Sector 3, 4
Davan tapped his foot as the carpet blurred away, and the table began to become smaller and smaller in the distance behind him. As the dining room table got Larger Davan hummed a bit and looked around for any primitive lives that could be taking place, but then he noticed something far more advanced in the kitchen, and his eyes went wide. "Turn around! Let's go back... This is something far too dangerous for us. So just get close, then get out." So the pilot obeyed bringing the LAAT closer towards the kitchen, to get in closer to whateve rit was Raynor's folks were doing before quickly turning tail and burning back towards the coffee table.
A group of Jedi, and Clone Troopers, suddenly ripped from the world they know, they were midcombat when it happened, having been taking the fight to the Seperatists. They were created to be an elite group, with more Jedi involved with the troopers than norma, micromanaging the clones at the lowest levels via Padawans.
CULTURE
The Clone Troopers are mostly military minded, keeping themselves busy with tasks, such as setting up defenses, cleaning weapons, ensuring line of sights, patrolling, reparing vehicles, building outposts, or command posts, and just general military actions. The jedi on the other hand spend a lot of their time in meditation, learning the force feeling it flow through them, or practicing their lightsaber techniques. They are generally peaceable usually seeking Diplomacy before even considering combat, though they are cautious of the fact taht anywhere is a dangerous place, and they may have to fight at any time.
APPEARANCE
Clone Troopers: The Clone Troopers are all human, and of course all resemble the same man as they are clones. They are genetically built after Jango Fett and have taken on his appearance to the T (Minus his scars) In armor they are even further unrecognizable except for their troop markings, and rank stripes. With White armored, and a T shaped visor helm they are completely indistinguishable from another.
Jedi: They are a multitude of alien species, including Humans, Twi'leks, Zabraks, and plenty of others. They generally dress in clothes that are rather relaxing, loose, or tight depending on the Jedi's personal preference.
ECONOMY
An abundnace of cloth, and cotton, lint etc, as well as a lot electronic equipment with which to use and build from. This also comes with a abundance of DVDs, which could be used for a variety of works, tasks etc, coins from the couch cushions, and carpet fabric to create different ropes and such.
LEADERSHIP
The 402nd is made up like any other military, Officers, Non Commissioned Officers, and Enlisted being in that order, Jedi have the highest ranks of Officers, and are ultimately in charge of the clones. Here a few named Jedi who have the most important positions.
He is the oldest of the Jedi in the 402nd, and has been with them since the Battle For Geonosis, the council has often questioned his mindset, and if he is not closer to falling to the darkside than he realizes.
Second in Command to Master Kaross, Viiila is a powerful Jedi Knight, but adheres strongly to the Jedi Code of ethics, she is often the one to keep Master Van in check, holding him back from the brink of the dark side. She is a master at the double bladed lightsaber, and is often the one to leader the padawans in their lightsaber drills. She is the most martial of the Jedi in the 402nd
A powerful force user, Tay happens to be the one who is most looked to for all things involving the force, and happens to be the one who often leads the Padawands assigne dto the 402nd in their teachings of all things related to the force.
One of the more naive of the Jedi Leaders, Piffari has gained her position for her increidble abilities to heal. She leads a specialized group of Jedi, trained to heal, and they are considered a cornerstone of the 402nd.
LEGACY
The unit was formed after the three hundred original members of it performed admirably in the battle of Geonosis, they were extremely skilled, and deadly against their enemies, making several maneuvers that really set the tone of Victory for the entire campaign. Once they were pulled together they have taken on some of the most heavily defended positions, and earned a reputation for being able to break sieges like few others. The Jedi in charge have proven to be a bit more ruthless than the average Jedi, and it shows in their combat abilities.
MILITARY
Jedi Warriors, 102 The mainstay of the jedi, they are msterful in their use of lightsabers, capable dealing great damage to enemies in close combat, though they were not as versatilte in the use of the Force as Mystics, they are quite capable of using it.
Jedi Mystics, 43 These Jedi are poweful force users, more than capable than any of their counterparts. They be seen meditating to have foresight of a battle and what maneuvers to take, or even using the force to throw tremendous objects, or create a tornado made of pure force energy throwing enemies about like dust in the wind.
Jedi Healers, 28 What they do is obvious, they are healers, even most grievous of wounds can be healed if a Jedi Healer catches up to the wounded in time, though they are healers they are quite capable of defending themselves.
Various Clone Troopers, 1,600 The Clone Troopers are varied in the fact that they cover a multitude of roles, they are pilots, tank drivers, artillery gunners, and grunts. They are utilized in whatever position they are needed, trained to fulfill a role within the 402nd, but at the heart of them all is a clone trooper readily able to pick up a blaster and use it in a fight against the enemy.
Vehicles Personal Clone Walker, 110 These are a single pilot vehicle, used for combat, and being general mobile armor. They carry a dual set of heavy blasters, and rocket salvos.
All Terrain Tactical Enforcer, 45 These six legged behemoths of war are a mainstay of the 402nd, they are integral in ending sieges. Armed with several blaster cannons, and a single mass driver cannon they are adept at taking out both enemy infantry, and enemy vehicles. Further more they are used as a mobile bases, complete with holographic setups in the rear, and enough room to carry up to 30 troops.
74-Z Speeder Bike, 99 Perfect for scouting ahead, and ambushes the Speeder bike is a higly mobile vehicle with a pair of blaster cannons mounted on the front. Capable of carrying a single driver, and a passenger they make for great ways to enter a enemy's territory and leave before they ever knew someone was there.
TX-130 Fast Attack Tank, 21 This vehicle is used to actively, and quickly engage enemy forces, utilizing a twin pair of laser cannons, and two thermal missile launchers, regardless of it's light armor it is still a force to be reckoned with.
Low Altitude Assault Transport, 61 Fast light, and barely armored, these troop transports capable of carrying 15+ troopers are armed to the teeth, with more than eight missles capable of being launched, and 6 different laser guns set along it's body. Capable of fighting both ground, and against aerial fighters it is a force to be reckoned with.
AV-7, 33 A large quadraped walker, this monster of military might is a mobile artillery cannon capable of raining down hell upon any it targets. It is operated by a single user, and can be far out of sight as it fires shells of it powerful payload onto enemy units.
Z-795 Starfighters, 62 These agile, fast starfighters are not heavily armored, but they pack a powerful punch in the form of lasers. They are typically piloted only by a single trooper, though sometimes a Jedi will pilot them as well and lead troopers in combat.
