Jorran went to the sleeping quarters that had been found for him, and spent about an hour meditating on the day's events before he climbed into bed and dozed off.

I live on an island that's relatively rural (somewhere short of the lightest suburbs), and I grew up here...and I've lived in the same house for all of my 17 (and a half) years. However, I'm just a half-hour ferry ride (or 15-minute ferry ride followed by 40-minute bus ride, depending on the...

I--like so many--voted 25. My preference is 28, however, since that's closest to the actual average of 4d6-lowest, as proven by some math-whiz here on the boards. After all, with 28, you can get the 'standard' 16,14,14,12,10,8 (or 15,15,14,12,12,8) array that seems to work for all but the most...

Jorran thought to himself for a moment, mulling things around his head. He stroked his beard, and seemed to come to a descision. "With the galaxy as it is, I don't think there's any way I could ever truly be a Jedi Knight, whether I wanted to or not. I would be honored to train with you...but I...

"Pretty much. I've tried to limit my use of the Force as much as possible because of that...you know, trying not to get in over my head, and all. I've found that blasters really aren't as clumsy as they're made out to be, though, in the process. Well, if you get a nice one, that is."

Jorran lowered his head. "He started by raiding the great temple on Coruscant and killing every Master, Knight, Padawan, and Learner there. After that, the remaining Jedi were hunted down one-by-one. The only reason I survived was beccause I was so far out on the Rim when the purge began, and...

"The Jedi order was destroyed utterly in Palpatine's 'Jedi Purge', and for all I know, there may not be more than ten or twenty survivors in the galaxy, including myself. Not too long after the purge, Palpatine used his 'Emergency Powers' to seize all the power from the senate and become...

Jorran did his best to answer the questions one-by-one. "My ship was an ancient transport...a YT-12. No, not 1200; a 12. I'm 41. I came this way from the direction of Nar Shaddaa, but I grew up on Coruscant. Oh, yeah, I got drenched in hydrolic fluid when my ship got hit. Yeah, by the other ship...

I've got my reasons... 1. Planar travel just doesn't fit with the sorts of campaigns I like running/playing in, just like robots, psionics, dinosaurs, and samurai don't fit. It's a flavor thing. 2. Often times, the planes and their denizens are too...weird. In small doses, their weirdness is...

I voted 'print none' but I will print out important pages when I actually use something (not including things like the worksheets in A Magical Medieval Society, which I regularly print when I use them). I can't actually remember trying to ever print out all of a PDF any time in the last several...

Five. It's the perfect balance of a large enough number of people to actually make things interesting, and few enough to keep things going smoothly. Once a week, in an ideal world, but I know I'm never going to be able to do that with my current group. About 8-10 hours (2 or later till...

What if the whole ship was an animated object?

As a DM? A scholar that the PCs were escorting. I used a very, very angry corpse that was inhabited by an evil spirit. It grapple the guy, broke his neck, and started to run off with him. As a player? A mutineer in a now-defunct Grim Tales 'pirate-related' game. He started pulling a pistol to...

After running back to the cooking area, and rearming himself, Jorran saw that Arias was already to safety. So, he holstered his blaster and walked towards the wall where Kal and Arias stood.

Jorran thought to himself for a moment. "I think I'll help cook--I don't think I'd be much help with the generator." With that, he walked to the fire pits, looking for Orran. (OOC: Assuming he finds her, he takes off his coat, piles it with his other stuff (out of the way), rolls up his...

Jorran smiled. "I'm Jorran. Miera and Adrial found me when I fell out of the sky." After sharing a few more words with the girl, he turned back to Miera. "I'm just glad I didn't land in an ocean, and that this planet has anyone on it at all. Just another step on the path, right? This isn't...

On a side note, space may be cold, but its density is so low that the heat conduction is nil. So, it would take a very, very long time to cool down to the 3.7 kelvin (if I'm remembering my Astronomy correctly) ambient temperature, even including the inevitable cooling from evaportation... The...

Jorran Kaarai (human Jedi Guardian in a PBP star wars game, here on ENWorld) Captain 'Iron' Jack Eadie (the captain of the group's ship (The 'Red Queen') in a 16th-century pirate-related campaign; Grim Tales) Eolan (a barbarian--who outshone an entire party of spellcasters and guys with funky...

Looking at the settlement, Jorran followed Miera in through the gate. "This is quite an improvement over my pod.

BUMP Anybody else have ideas/comments/suggestions? ...? (I'm looking at you, Wulf)
