With regards to tistes did she ever encounter Nico Asura?

I don't think Terra did; there was Savior... that's about it and that - one winged student who after - well... hmm... the player was new to the RP series and choose the worst possible way to introduce his character.

So Terra is with her son William- ... I think you remember- it's the whole situation that started her being in the hospital and your character saving her. Yeah the guy decided to have his winged character fall from the sky and Terra tries to keep her cool but all the while she's changing while offering this guy help getting up and needless to say he was scared- she was scared- and before anyone got hurt the JSDF shows up and Terra just- sinks. No one got hurt but- still- she did not react well. I can't even remember what specifically got her into the state of needing to be hospitalized.


I remember CPR helped and something about black fluid that was suffocating her... but otherwise just too panicked at the thought of her abruptly dying like that. But it sounds like the situation escalated upon her first contact until it led to her hospitalisation. Is it just me or does bad fortune ensue every time Terra see's a tiste? Was she attempting suicide by cop after witnessing Savior? Then again two encounters were likely just a coincidence. She never did encounter Salvia...

As a group we're not as active as we once were... in what seems like an age long past. We'll be passing the 5 year mark in just over a month I think. Some founding members are still around and posting now and then but there are no longer any 'Titan Group'' branded RPs that brought all the original members together.

I don't keep deleting and rewriting my posts, just the last one because I could, because it felt messy in sentences and I wanted to start over. Apologies but I didn't account for any minor inconvenience for a momentary absence of a single post.

I prefer mint myself now that I think about it. Avocado could be pretty neat too. Or maybe even grass or green chilli... nah that would smell weird. Course its all artificial anyway. One could conceivably create shower gel scented like sand or cacti, but that would lack a freshness factor. Do fruits just smell nice that makes them appealing as scents? Probably, I guess that explains why there's no carrot or corn scented gels.

One of Salvia's earliest incarnations if based in Ancient Egypt and correlated with a snake deity could have been 'Wadjet' who was considered protector of Lower Egypt prior to unification whereupon she ascended to joint guardianship over both Upper and Lower regions alongside the vulture deity Nekhbet, perhaps a rival tiste turned ally or an alternate identity, forming 'the Two Ladies' dynamic. Her image became a symbol of both sovereign and divine authority that endorsed the legitimate rule of any individual pharaoh, this symbol was called the Uraeus hence she became known as the protector of kings.

Image

Wadjet was also guardian of women in childbirth, according to myth she was nurse to an infant Horus, helping his mother Isis to protect him from Set by hiding him in a swamp, which if taken in the OM&T context may imply the exiled Hora were not above killing and perhaps even usurping from their kin despite their shared allegiance to Mer but conversely also capable of caring for each other. In any case Wadjet embodied the snake's image for both power and fertility.

Like Caesar many centuries later when she assumed the form of Clementia she might have used the first pharoah Menes similarly as a human leader under her influence to establish a dynasty through which to assume control of the ancient egyptian populace.

That's an interesting proposition. I feel it works. Watdjet was one of the entities I used for the character of Hsiss in the 'Junior Gods' RP with Salvia being another.

Just collecting resources for a Star Wars RP that starts in 1000 BBY (1000 years Before the Battle of Yavin).

The RP is set to take place RIGHT after the Reformation Act; which began the republic's demilitarization after the New Sith Wars.

It's considered part of the 'Rise of the Empire Era' as a 'quite before the storm'.

The war is over, the Sith are assumed extinct, the Rakkata who once enslaved the galaxy have died out, and with this legislation an era of peace is emerging leaving many to ask; what now? The wars consumed much of one's time in the galaxy and now that they are over- one needs to decide what to do. How to rebuild what was lost or what new horizon to explore. It's a bit of a sandbox setting that I'll be the co-op of with Brusia. It's a lot more detailed in our discussions then the above.

I already have a character in mind and am doing research- a Kaminoan, Taul Le;

"In regards to my character, who I know her surname is likely Le- Kamino would benefit frpm examining the galactic situation. Labor will be needed, and yes droids could be used but as we know from Dax so to can clones as he witnessed during his mining days. We also know that some people in the outer rim found droids 'unreliable' and 'not trustworthy'. (the latter coming from the fact that listening divises can be installed and most have a loyalty to the law so criminals can't trust them that much - or so anyone who can't reprogram them thinks)

What I mean is- the Kaminoans could find opportunities here.

I'm thinking that my character will be presenting herself as a researcher while also reporting her findings regarding the condition of the galaxy to a comittee and if so directed serving as a 'middleman' between her government and prospective customers.

She'd be a biologist with sociological and medical training but also a scout. She'd be making (to her people) discoveries that the Republic is probably already aware of while also serving her people.

I'm thinking of the name; Taul Le."


I also found out that in expanded lore another species 'surpassed' Kamino's cloning in the year 1000 BBY and I'd like to use rumor of such as something to direct my character's interest towards. I know what she'll find and that it's going to be more disturbing than interesting but I'd like to discover what reaction arises.

Brusia is going to be busy with school this week so I'll just keep rambling here about my research and journey to getting this character up.

Due to the character I'm playing I"m continuing to research the Kaminoans- learning about their past, and surprisingly that they've preserved their mythology even while having little value of soul. Though it's a bit like how- while Hellenism isn't practiced we still tell stories of Hercules, Zeus, etc- it's like that.

I decided to look into the Prime Minister of Kamino from Episode 2 to better understand their command structure.

I found out that in the expanded canon Lama Su, the Prime Minister during the Clone Wars was in contact with Count Dooku (under the alias of Darth Tyranus). It's... kind of cringy but makes sense seeing how Jango mentions Lord Tyranus and the Prime Minister's aid doesn't make any remark about that. To them Syfo Dias and Darth Tyranus where both involved in contracting the army for the Republic. Concerned that the safe guard against a Jedi Coup had briefly triggered pre-maturely he helped to conceal the order from the Jedi while the issue was dealt with so the safeguard would remain in place.

It's important to note that the order wasn't envisioned as being given widely, but rather selectively - but still- by helping to preserve what he thought to be a safeguard against the Jedi, who where obtaining a lot of sway over the Republic- being advisers to the galactic government- yeah by doing that he's partially responsible for what happened.

I found out also that due to their investment in the war Kamino joined the Republic during his government- which meant it fell under the Empire. Seeing how Kamino was a world with a government that compared to the elected Monarchy of Naboo, and other governments, was very democratic- I'm not sure how things went after that.

Technically Kamino wasn't a democracy so much as an Oligarchy; the Governors of the various cities on Kamino elected one of themselves to be Prime Minister- who had a task few of them wanted- dealing with outsiders. It wasn't a desired role so they didn't recommend themselves making the vote more or less 'who do we want representing us who isn't going to get agitated by the position'.

When it came time to appoint a senator to the Galactic Republic they chose their eldest citizen. No elections just- if you where the oldest, and thus your efficiency dwindling- you became senator to the Grand Republic to live out your days on some foreign world where none of the younger more perfect specimens had to look upon your weakness with thoughts of culling you. ... Kaminoans are a murderous lot- polite but still killers.

As an example of their- murderous desires- rather then terminate a clone while it's still in it's tube they wait for it to be 'birthed' so to speak before killing it. The same apparently goes for defective births from selective breeding. So- yeah they apparently like to kill things which may or may not have something to do with the fact that they've been processing their own kind into nutrient paste for thousands of years. You get a certain age where your perfect form becomes imperfect and are terminated and processed into tomorrow's meal stuff.

Over all- they don't like dealing with out siders- they left the Republic over 9000 years before the Battle of Yavin because 'moralist despised them' and they - well- they don't like being called evil and being largely materialist find the concept maliable, something artificial. They like to think they are superior and having to deal with the prospect of being morally inferior agitates them.

Your interest is most welcomed 8) Hopefully you can devise a character and perhaps together we can share our discoveries in creating our characters. Right now our aim is;

"...an open sandbox RP, letting the players sort of establish their characters and initial storylines, then start working on a central storyline after the players have had a chance to do some worldbuilding and character development so that we can tailor the main plot around the developing characters....

So I have no doubt the characters will be spread out and diverse. Hopefully crossing paths in time to create an interconnected web which as a co-op along side Brusia I'd have to with him work to orchestrate through NPCs- most likely. hahahah it's an era I'm not very familiar with so I'm having to research. I played the Old Republic game but this RP is after that era and I don't think I got very far save as an Imperial Agent. My favorite characters are the Jedi Counselor, Bounty Hunter, and Smuggler but I excelled as an Imperial Agent. I'm not sure why- I suppose that character was more like how I actually am so I 'flowed' through things - perhaps the play style was closer to my own stealth+diplomacy tactics I typically use in games like Fallout, Skyrim, etc. That's probably it- Jedi Counselor is a bit more of how I want to be, Smuggler my seeking for wealth, and Bounty Hunter my judging side. While Imperial Agent is my professionalism.

Yep that explains why I got into them. But I digress- I'm not very familiar with this 1000 BBY which is considered the end of the Old Republic and start of the 'Rise of the Empire era' which climaxes in the Clone Wars. So- a lot to read up on. It's just one year though- so I know I can get the research done.

The New Sith Wars was pivotal indeed, it ended the old "Rule of the Strong" (Sith smack everyone within punching distance, scheming, warring, and infighting, but you can have as many apprentices as possible) to the Baneite Sith (Always Two there are, a master, and an apprentice). Not to mention it was the only time in history where the Jedi could've been radically different, as is the case with the Army of Light and the Jedi Lords. It also implies (at least if the Zeison Sha are to be believed) that the Jedi didn't take children when they were barely able to remember their parents to train in the Jedi Temple. It was the last great war between Jedi and Sith. One last great fustercluck.

The Chiss (the bois who brought you Grand Admiral Thrawn) would rise to prominence during that time. But if you're going the stealthy negotiator...the Chagas Remnant will have your back. The power of pulling strings must be had in order to own power without being controlled.

The Ruusan Reformation - yes I've read about that - it serves as an important bridge between the end of SWTOR and the 'Old' Republic we see in the Phantom Menace. It coincided with the reformation of the Sith Order under Darth Bane's Rule of Two after the annihilation of the Brotherhood of Darkness. Some important changes enacted under the reforms:

  • Demilitarisation of the Jedi Order with the abolition of the Army of Light and submitting themselves under the supervision of the Supreme Chancellor and Judicial Department. They also began to train Younglings not long after birth and centralised Padawan training on Coruscant.
  • Descaling of the galactic-wide Republic Military with the core based Judicial Corps. During the 'great peace' between the Battle of Ruusan in 1000 BBY and Battle of Geonosis in 22 BBY they went into decline and corruption until the Clone Army became revived the Republic Military.
  • Millions of galactic sectors represented in Senate reorganized into just over a thousand.
  • Moving on from the shadow of war, Chancellor Tarsus Valorum's reforms were considered to have ended the Dark Age of the Republic and ushered in a Golden Age.

This is quite an interesting era to explore, the Jedi transitioning from warmongers to peacekeepers, its the reason they stopped wearing battle armor in favor of robes and the Sith were finally believed to be extinct, it was quite a historic victory really, end of a centuries long feud. The future looked quite bright for a wholly united galaxy and the Jedi becoming accountable to Republic law.

The Ruusan Reformation effectively recreated the Old Republic, its legacy lasting for nearly a thousand years before the advent of the Clone Wars.

It's set the state for a new era and should be enough to leave characters at a starting point of 'where to now'.

The Chiss certainly continue to interest me. I was introduced to them through the Star Wars RPG sourcebooks and seeing how they have in 1000 BBY achieved their largest extent of 28 colony worlds at a peek- as Jariri has found this is considered the start of a galactic golden age though it's one that will rise from the ruins of a former era.

I found that some Jedi where not convinced of the Sith's defeat until 990 BBY when a confrontation lead them to conclude such. I think we'll have an interesting state set for us.

I don't even remember who Alexandra was anymore as a character. I remember Cynthia... and some of my other OCs but not her very well.

I remember Alexandra, she kissed Hiro after he attempted suicide in Book II and was married to him in KGA but might have felt homesick.

She was the closest thing to a best friend she had in Book 2. While Alexandra had her own problems and didn't know Terra's fully- her words helped. She's part of why Terra ended up in Japan and like Alexandra, her friend, got married. She wasn't all to happy with what Hiro revealed he did during KGA but I think that to be understandable.
