Star Wars: A Republic Dark Age (OOC/SU)

[moon]

Sounds nice enough. Line some kind of instructions out in your first post and we'll probably be fine :]

 

[Zavytar]

I hate to say this, but I'm withdrawing my reservation. Real life doesn't want me to think of new characters, and a truckload of tests is just a week away. So I'm gonna be pretty busy.

Good luck to you all and I hope you have fun.

Farewell.

 

[Greiger]

Hey Yager are we allowed to have two characters?

 

[Yagerbomb]

@greiger: sure, you can.

Also, sorry you guys for the delay, Ive just had family stuff to deal with, leaving me without a comp for the weekend. Im submitting the IC tonight or tommorrow morning, following pacific time for the time periods.

 

[Greiger]

Well, then here's my second character! I've always wanted to play an rebellious evil character so where better to start than in a Star Wars RP? Yeah, this is no ordinary Squib!

Spoiler:

Name: Balalawhiesesel (Nickname: Bala)
Age: 20
Gender: Male
Current homeworld: Coruscant

Appearance: Bala is blue furred Squib that stands at three feet tall and weighs only forty-four pounds. Bala has on two large ears and large yellow eyes. His ears are sensitive to sound are able to swivel around and will point in the direction of any sounds he hears. Bala's most advantageous traits is his fur. Like all other Squibs Bala's fur cannot only offer protection from cold climates but it can also help him pick up various scents that other species would never notice as well as and even helps him in looking past disguises as he can remember specific scents of those he has encountered.

Whenever Bala does wear clothes he tends to make sure that they cover up only a small portion of his body. When he was allied with the Jedi Bala would be forced to wear typical Knights robes to identify himself as a Jedi. Under his new master Bala has a much more lax dress code. Instead of robes he will tend to dress in a pair of shoes that only go up to his mid calf, a pair of shorts that will only cover him down to his mid thigh, and a belt that holds his pants in place that contains various pouches that he will store items such as spare lightsaber parts in.
Side: Sith
Title: Knight

Personality: Before Bala became apprenticed under the Sith he was just a young curious Squib. Due to him being taken in for Jedi training after he was born he hasn't had much contact with other Squibs, but he acted like the rest of his species. However, due to his capture by his new master and the brainwashing he endured a majority of Bala's personality changed. Bala tends to be overconfident in his abilities to take down his opponents and won't bother sneaking around, he will charge in head first and try to kill them with raw power. He still has a desire to collect shiny items he sees in his travels and will find attempt to fit them in his pockets on his belt.

Bala views those close to him as expendable. He will act nice when need be but if he can get out of a dangerous situation by sacrificing a friend or two he'll gladly do so to save his own skin. During battle Bala will use the Dun Moch form of combat where he will repeatedly taunt his foes to force them to make mistakes during battle. Bala has abandoned using the fast style of lightsaber combat and instead uses the strong style to break through an opponent's defense. Additionally Bala has been taught the style of Trakata, a unique combat form where Bala is able to turn off and reignite his saber during combat to get past an opponent's lightsaber block. Bala is entirely loyal to his master and will follow any order given, no matter how… messy it can be.

History: Bala was born on Skor II and soon after birth was declared force sensitive and sent to the Jedi Temple on Coruscant to begin training. Bala spent the first few years of his life inside the Temple grounds, learning the various forms of lightsaber combat under the Master that would teach him and other younglings. Bala bonded with two friends, a human female named Rehas, and a human male named Suulu. The three developed close relationships with Bala being the comedy relief. Once Bala reached the age of ten he took his initiate trials and passed along with his friends. It was here that Bala drew the eye of Master Daskow and was apprenticed to him. Daskow taught Bala all about the Jedi Code and groomed him in the ways of the jedi. When Bala reached the age of nineteen Daskow advised him to attempt the Jedi Trials and Bala did so. He managed to pass the trials of Skill and Courage. Just when he was to undertake the trial of the Flesh he learned that Suulu had died off world. Bala managed to accept his death and passed the trial of the flesh. Bala's most difficult trial was that of Spirit when he entered a meditative state and fought against a corrupted version of himself. Despite Bala's initial fear he managed to defeat his foe and easily passed the trial of Insight when he was presented with illusions of Sith Lords and he used his natural Squib fur to determine that the images were fake.

Once he achieved Knight status Bala went on a variety of missions for the Council before he was paired with Rehas to head to Taris to check out a disturbance on the planet. The two were ambushed by a Sith Lord in the Lower City and fought desperately but Rehas was killed. Angered, Bala struck out at the Sith with his rage over the loss of his friend and was subsequently defeated. Instead of killing Bala the Sith saw something in the Squib and took him prisoner. He spent many weeks torturing Bala using the fact that Bala's robe had covered all of the Squib's fur and had blocked out his ability to smell Yunver before hand, therefore pinning Rehas' death on Bala, to finally snap the Squib's willpower. The Sith, who was called Darth Yunver, corrupted Bala and brainwashed the Knight to serve him as his apprentice. In Bala's weakened state he couldn't fight off the Sith's power and fell into the dark side. Yunver spent many weeks training Bala in new techniques as well as giving him a wardrobe change. Now entirely loyal to Yunver Bala takes delight in doing whatever he can to become as strong as his master.

Lightsaber: Bala wields a single red lightsaber with a Firebrand hilt and a Phobium Emitter.

@Greiger: Second character has been accepted!

Also, I am working on the IC, should be in soon.

 

[Greiger]

You've got to admit, everything is more awesome with a Squib.

Edit 1: Just a quick question, for those who said their homeworld wasn't Courscant what do we post? Right now Tuslo is on Kashyyyk so do I just wing it?

For those, you are Roleplaying your escape of the temple. It has already happened in your history but to get off on a action packed start, that's what's happening.

Also, IC is UP!

 

[Greiger]

Okay, thanks for clearing that up!

Edit 1: I'm pretty sure I did Tuslo's scene okay, but if I didn't then tell me.

 

[Yagerbomb]

Yea, you did Tuslo's scene pretty well. Good job too ya.

Anyways, as I showed somewhat with the Padawan character (Stay tuned for my plans with him) Republic guards or "soldiers" will likely show up at nearby spaceports and what not.

 

[moon]

I feel, uh, a little bit lost. Are we supposed to leave Coruscant now? Are we allowed to do pretty much anything we want, anywhere we want or is there a story to unfold?

 

[Greiger]

Well, I just assumed we would use the Jedi Temple attack to pretty much scatter the Jedi around since we have different home worlds we are on. The Jedi would all go different places to escape the Sith. I remember Kalei also listed her home world as Kashyyyk so I just threw in that part in my latest post to perhaps give a reason why two Jedi would be on Kashyyyk.

 

[Yagerbomb]

You can leave Coruscant when you please. Sorry for confusing you guys, I'm not really a perfect Gm, but I'm learning.

 

[Legend]

Finally posted. Sorry it took a while, but to be honest Wren is not the type of character to hang out in a Jedi Temple despite being good xD He's more neutral and simply the type to join "good" when it needs to. But no biggie, I got him moving.

I'm excited to where this goes :)

Dont worry, i just wanted to have everyone start out one the same hunk of rock.

 

[moon]

Huh, ok. I guess Renna could get another job for the Sith, and go to Kashyyk to try and hunt down some Jedi >:D if that would be ok with you guys.

 

[Greiger]

@RHCP I'm game for that. We can just have you overhear the two talking. Of course it would take you some time to find Tuslo since he'll be using Force Cloak while he's on Kashyyyk.

Well I don't remember any fancy terms, but Renna is quite good at hiding her presence in the force as well. Maybe they could even run into each other somewhere on Kashyyyk, not realizing that they are Jedi and semi-Sith? Though... are there only super private tree-hut-villages there are are there like in KOTOR, places where merchants and travelers can land?

 

[Greiger]

Kashyyyk does receive visitors so yes they do have places where you can land. Every planet pretty much does. Force Cloak is not hiding your presence. With Force Cloak a Jedi or Sith can hide that they are Force Sensitive and their alignment. Pretty much look at Palpatine in the prequel movies. All this time he was a Sith Lord and none of the Council suspected it. That's because he was using Force Cloak to hide that he was force sensitive and that he had fallen to the dark side. That's the entirety of Force Cloak, you don't hide physically but you hide the fact that you can use the Force.

 

[moon]

hiding her presence in the force

Um, yeah, what you described was what I was trying to say. But alright. I can have the Sith tracking some of the ships that took off from the Temple and have Renna be the one to track down the ship going to Kashyyyk~
