#1 Cyncat's Star Wars Game

Post by Cynical Cat »

It is the time of trial for the Old Republic. The dread Sith Empire has forced the Treaty of Coruscant upon the Republic and now both sides plot and plan for when the bitter truce fails. During this cold war, Republic Intelligence makes certain discoveries and potentially cataclysmic events are set in motion. The fate of the galaxy may rest on the shoulders of a few members of the Republic and a handful of Intelligence assets . . .


Character Creation Rules


1) Your character must in some way be associated with Republic Intelligence. She can be a Jedi that works with them, an agent, a mercenary contractor, enemy asset, or something similar.

2) You have to be able to work with a group.

3) Character will start with 150 post starting XP and 1,000 credits of gear.

4) Choice of Lightsaber or 5,000 Credits

5) You get the following options with regard to Duty, Obligation, and Morality: Start with a standard amount and get either 10XP, 2500 credits, or 5xp and 1000 credits, or get a special benefit appropriate to your character.

6) An all Force-User team is cool. There's this little game called Force and Destiny . . . .
It's not that I'm unforgiving, it's that most of the people who wrong me are unrepentant assholes.

Name: Magellan Toresi
Species: Human
Career: Guardian
Specializations: Armorer, Soresu Defender

Emotional Strength: Compassion

Wound Threshold: 12

Defense: 1 (2 vs. melee)
Soak: 6
Force Rating: 3
Morality: 85 (Light Side Paragon)

Background:
Like most Jedi of his generation, Magellan grew up during the long war against the Sith. The atrocities and uncertainty he grew up with, and had hanging over him like a cloud all throughout his training as a Jedi encouraged him to focus his training in more martial directions. In more peaceful times, Magellan would be a tinkerer and inventor, enjoying spending his time inventing or modifying.

With the Sith War hanging over the galaxy though, and with what amounts to a cold war occurring in the present, Magellan has focused himself and his talents to directly step in and defend others who cannot defend themselves. He is determined to use his talents at invention, reason, and knowledge to end the threat of the Sith once and for all, returning the galaxy to a much more peaceful state. If this means that he must place himself directly between the Sith and all those they would threaten or use, then so be it. They will discover that preparation and knowledge can go far in any conflict, and he has honed his own skills to become a stalwart and relentless defender of the innocent or helpless.

Background
Loric Arrial was born in Balmorra three years after the start of the galactic conflict that came to be known as the Great War. When the war reached Balmorra he was identified as a force sensitive child by Jedi forces and taken from his parents in order to receive adequate training. His parents were supportive of the move concerned that should he remain in Balmorra he would attract the attention of Sith forces. The transition from the only world he had ever known to the relative safety of the Jedi Temple was a difficult one. However, he quickly found an aptitude for the structured life that the Jedi Order provided him. It quickly became apparent that Loric's interest laid initially more in the martial pursuits than in the uncovering of the secrets of the force. While his peers spent hours in meditation, Loric was far more interested in spending time practicing the use of a lightsaber. The mysteries of the force were of interest to him but the more practical applications of lightsaber combat held a stronger allure for him.

After a decade of training, he had grown into one of the most competent lightsaber wielders of his peers and he had focused on the path of the Guardian. The idea of placing himself in the trenches and making a difference appealed to him as he keenly remembered his time in Balmorra. His interested in the Soresu style was one that appealed to him. The concept that a Jedi was to defend initially and exploit the mistakes and passions of his adversaries was one that appealed to him. His force of personality led him to the path of the peace keeper where a Jedi would seek to keep the peace by placing oneself in the fulcrum of conflicts guiding situations to the most optimal and equitable conclusion. His knowledge in the force grew along this time, but compared to many of his peers in the Order his strengths seemed to focus on the more concrete manifestations and disciplines. Loric developed a keen interest in the ability to enhance his body in order to facilitate his own focus on lightsaber combat. His interest in healing others was tied to his having witness frequent suffering and wounds as a child in Balmorra. While he had a stated interest in other aspects of the force such as sense, influence, and move his skill in these areas remained underdeveloped.

Five years prior to the treaty of Coruscant Loric was assigned to a Jedi Master and began to actively participate in the conflict against the Sith. During this time, he saw first hand the wonders and horrors of a galaxy consumed by a seemingly never ending conflict. During this time, he managed to make friends and enemies and learned first hand what it meant to truly be a Jedi. He admired the compassion that his master displayed both in negotiations and combat. He also began to be more fully exposed to the great freedoms that those that did not walk the path of the Jedi were allowed. At times, he found himself coveting the accolades of some of the order that he had learned and trained alongside. Salina Merel a Jedi that he had frequently bested in practice won accolades for her role in the Rim Campaign. J`neth Lothos sacrificed his life in order to save the life of his master and secure a critical objective during the battle or Rhen Var. All around him, some of his peers earned greatness while he lingered always completing his missions but never earning the acknowledgment that he desired.

When the Treaty of Coruscant took place, Loric like many of his peers and his master felt that the move was a hollow one. He felt that the treaty was a gambit like any other and that the Sith Empire had not true desire or interest in a lasting peace with the Republic. He informed his master of his thoughts in this matter and spoke openly with some of his most trusted peers. However, he did not take the step to openly advocate for change. His many years of training had imparted within him a strong sense of decorum. The Jedi Council had made a decision to go along with the treaty and he respected that decision by not openly advocating against it outside of the walls of the order. To those outside of the Jedi Order, the Jedi had to present a unified front. When he was approached by elements aligned with Jedi Master Dar'Nala he politely refuted their advances. Instead, he reached out to elements of Republic Intelligence.

Always, among the Sith, there are factions. Given the omnipresent level of distrust and backstabbing amongst wielders of the Dark Side, it should be of no surprise to anyone that their partisan splits are frequently-shifting, often-overlapping, and often anything but peaceful. Open warfare is...discouraged, but jockeying for position and the use of convenient catspaws to strike at one another are commonplace. In light of the Empire's recent spate of open warfare with the Galactic Republic, one faction began casting around for any force-sensitives it could lay its hands on, no matter their origin or how suitable they may be to the more tradition-bound Sith, to bolster the ranks of acolytes in a bid to counter the Republic's potential numbers.

Shaalh is a result of that, one among many dragged from all walks of life to be thrown into the meat-grinder of Korriban. In the Chiss's case, it was from the lowest of origins, outright slavery. Having suffered monumental disgrace in the service of Imperial law enforcement and at the hands of ambitious competitors, the result was the farthest it is possible to fall in Imperial society, possibly including actual execution. Shaalh languished there, the lowest of the low, for years while the galaxy moved forwards, ignited, and began to shake apart. Only out of desperation and luck did the Sith dragnet bear this particular fruit, and only out of sheer bloody-minded determination was the Chiss able to survive the famously casualty-prone Korriban academy. After years staring up at the underbelly of Imperial society, however, Shaalh had no illusions left as to its worthiness, its ability to command loyalty or respect. The Empire did not free anyone, the Sith did.

The Force shall set you free.

Thus was born an individual with no reason to love the Empire and every reason to despise it, and yet the opposite towards the Sith as an ideal. At the same time, no illusions remained; the Sith, just as the Empire, play host to many, many monsters. Very carefully, very quietly, Shaalh made contact with Republic intelligence and began feeding them information on the Empire's innermost workings...

APPEARANCE:
Siana is a human female of average height. Her skin is pale, nearly "spaceman's tan" from her work at computer desks. Dark hair frames a rounded face set off by hazel eyes and full lips, and her figure is athelically toned. While some would give her a second admiring glance, she does not stand out from the thousands of other young business women hurrying along Coruscant's busy walkways every day.

BACKGROUND:
Coruscant families pride themselves on their service to the Republic, whether they're Military, Diplomatic, or Senatorial. The Jh'laynes are no different, proudly stating their service as functionaries to all branches of service. They are as invisible as droids, and as indespensible as paperwork. While some Coruscanian families might sniff at this 'lowly' work, the Jhe'laynes continue to work hard in the small duties that keep the Republic running.
After all, how better to hide SIS agents than in plain sight?

Siana followed this fine family traditon nearly to the letter. She made high marks at Academy in Computer Sciences, showing a natural aptitude for the task. Her skills would have given her a position anywhere, but family ties made sure she was given a position in Republic Intelligence's CompOps. Her ability with blasters was noted during training, and she was encouraged to continue practicing. Republic Intelligence prefered a well-rounded agent, who did not need baby-sat in the field.

While most of her time has been spent in CompOp tracking fraud and tracing possible underworld transactions, Siana has been sent on a handful of field operations. The success of those missions marked Siana out as a viable choice for future operations, especially now, with the Treaty of Coruscant straining at the seams, and War looking more and more likely.

With regards to the Ships of the Old Republic, is there a design system you are using for conversions, are you making them from scratch based on Wookiepedia attributes, or some other method?

Marcao, you have starting cash equal to 2500 higher than standard, but you have a standard Four 3's and two 2's for your attribute spread. When you start at 50 Morality, the discrete choice is as follows:

Pick One:
  • 2500 credits
  • 10 XP
  • 1000 credits AND 5 xp
  • Something special (up to GM)

Background

Fengris is a padawan attached to the order’s diplomatic corps under his master Criax Wyndaru (Female Jedi Consular, Twi Lek), and yes like all diplomats she cables updates and assessments to republic intelligence. It is in the job description (not that anyone admits to that in public). Unlike consulars in a prior age, his initial training was more martially oriented. Given the recent hostilities and an active Sith Empire, Criax decided that after his Initiate trials and passage to Padawan status his training should be more martially focused than hers was, the better to defend himself and the Republic should negotiations become aggressive. Too many padawans, in her view, were lost due to an over-emphasized devotion to externally focused peace rather than strictly to internally focused peace.

That does not, however, mean that his other studies have been allowed to lapse. Not by a long shot.

Personality

Emotion, yet peace.
Ignorance, yet knowledge.
Passion, yet serenity.
Chaos, yet harmony.
Death, yet the Force.

The variation on the Jedi Code, as taught to younglings. This is what Fengris lives by. Mostly because he grew up in a Jedi Order at various states of unofficial hostility with the Sith Empire, and daily has to contend with their machinations. In short, he despises them. Not for any abstract reason but because of the very real concrete harm they do to sentient beings that he reads of or witnesses on a daily basis. This does not do good things for his peaceful serenity, but he is trying. He has disciplined his mind enough that he can usually work through it but maybe, just maybe, he passes information to republic intelligence with a bit more glee than his master does it with. He also might be (read: totally is and has been) willing to take the fight to them, with or without prior permission, if a compelling argument is given.

Karrick and White Haven still haven't supplied much in the way of character backstory. Please correct that.

The more I think about my character the more the shine (slime?) seems to have worn off. I've been really thinking about the backstory for the past week or so and I'm just not coming up with something I like. My concept was honestly kind of troll-y and probably good for a one-shot but I can't seem to bring myself to want to play it in a longer campaign. I'm going to relegate Rogga the Hutt to the trash compactor for now.

That said, I want to sling a saber as much as the next person. Cyncat, would you be willing to let me jump in with a different character a few sessions down the line? I know that's not always workable and this is really late notice at this point so I'm not going to argue about it.

Sorry to hear that Garvin. Karrick, I'll fit you in as soon as you can get me another character and I can arrange it.

Apologies for the lateness, it's been a long week. My post has been edited with what I have at hand, let me know if you require expansion, clarification, or alteration on anything. I tried to avoid too many hard specifics that would make it difficult to slot into whatever you have in mind for a campaign intro.

Since I had to drop out early last time we played, and never got introduced, can someone catch me up on what happened, where we are, and if I'm the only one of the party who didn't get introduced last game?
