A New Power - OOC

[Guest 11456]

Well... It looks like we already have three people starting not on the planet and two of them are crashing into it. I think I'll take back my original concept and go with someone on the original ship that crashed. A few things:

1. How long from the crash to present day?

2. Please go ahead and roll stats for me.

3. As far as the possibility of being a Jeth (note the combining of Jedi & Sith)... Are there only two lightsabers on the planet without the possibility of anymore or did the two possibly bring extra lightsaber crystals with them?

I'll have an outline of a background up soon.

It has been approximately 29 years since the crash.

Lucky you.

Acutally they decided to call their new Order the Sethi, but there's no way you could have known that. The planet is actually quite strong in the force, but one wouldn't be able to detect that from space with the almost over-abundance of life on the planet. There are crystals to be found if you know where to look for them, and so far Arias and Meira have made 3 new lightsabers for their more advanced students, and 4 training lightsabers for their younger students (using parts scavenged and reworked from the ship's hold and from the ship itself).

BTW, the Jedi Guardian and Jedi Consular classes are equally available. But if you're a Guardian, your roll in the 'camp'/town/thing would be more or less a hunter/protector, while consulars would be healers and mediators. That sort of thing. Just though you might want to know when writing up your backstory.

BTW, players. Tailspinner and Supergirl had me roll their stats for them, and the results were, to be blunt, GODLY.

Just rolled 16, 16, 15, 15, 13, 14. for SG via AIM, so if you want to have your stats re-done with the dice, just let me know.

 

[Super Girl]

Well, Kor-Gon would be 42-45 by the New Republic Era, so he would definitely know what he was doing as far as the force, so if he would be able to notice the force sensitivity of someone else, he would be more then welcome to stow away on the DawnSprinter. Seeing as they both have been into the seedier Cantinas that cater to gambling, she could have definitely peeked his interest, and it wouldn't be that hard for a mid to high level jedi to sneek aboard her ship as she is blasting off just ahead of the Z-95s. Or Angcuru suggested that you could have hired me to transport you somewhere. I think the first is more probable since both have used the force to win at gambling.

 

[Angcuru]

Ok, I've just discussed this with SuperGirl, and for everything to balance out with situations, backgrounds and such, everyone's going to get a char-appropriate boost.

Kia Obscura is starting out with her starship, and for his backstory to make sense, Kor-Gon is starting at lvl 4 but with normal lvl 2 jedi wealth(BTW, he'll be middle-aged, so take that into account with your stats).

once other chars are posted, I'll give an appropriate boost.

Thanx Angcuru for those steller rolls. Just to let everyone know, my stats would have required a 51 point build, Super Girl's would have required a 47 point build and POL's rolls would have required a 46 point buy.. I would highly recommend having Angcuru roll your stats. The average stat using this method is about a 12.5 and the chance of getting a roll of 14 or higher is better then 1 in 3. Let see, my average is 14.5, Super Girl's is about 14.8 abd POL's is about 14.2. Very nice.

Nice stats. A jedi guardian apprentice, probably.

I read the prologue, a good story.
So:
the time is just before the fall of the new republic (maybe it fell in this last 29 years).

We are from a village made from refugees of a ship crashed into an unknown jungle planet, without means of space travel or communication.

Is there any intelligent life on the planet?

The ship wasnt equipped for colonization, so I assume we would have almost NO technology. Is this going to be some robinson crusoe type campaign?

It is the transition period between the fall of the empire and the Rise of the New Republic. The Prologue was just a few years before the fall of Old Republic. Just to Clarify.

Yes.

If there is intelligent life, it hasn't found them or been found. The wildlife are almost entirely violent, cannibalistic omnivores and suchlike(more on that when we get in game).

From basic refugee posessions and emergency supplies in the hold, there are a few bits of technology. It's somewhat of a robinson crusoe situation for the stranded folks for the time being, but the time spent in this situation in-game will be comparably minimal.

 

[Ankh-Morpork Guard]

I should be able to get a background and such up later today...first off, though, a question.

While mechanically, humans are really great choices, I'd prefer something less generic. Currently looking at Kel Dor, and more curious how you would handle the gas breather and such than anything.

The character could be a member of the original crash, but if he did, he'd likely have split off from the rest, especially with Arias and Meira training people in the Force but not the Jedi ways. He wouldn't be a Jedi, of course, but really wouldn't like that at all. Not hostile, just at least slightly insulted, as the Jedi he was partnered with would have been killed in either the Clone Wars or the actual Purge.

I'm thinking its probably best he wasn't with the original crash, but didn't actually fight in the Rebellion, either, staying in hiding and doing his best to track down any Jedi that may have survived. And yep, he'd be middle aged, too...our group is skewing old.

EDIT: Oh, and as I love the dice, go ahead and roll for me, too.
