Star Wars: A New Uprising [OOC] -CONCLUDED-

[Spindle]

But Luuke was cloned from the hand Luke (real one) lost on Cloud City...

AND I would classify that under one of good things that got wiped when the EU lost it'a canon status.

Really? I always liked the Spaarti cloning - it was a cool plot point in the Thrawn Trilogy and I always liked the clone madness they displayed in later works. It's just a cool touch.

Biography (At least a well written Paragraph please): Lord Dragonheart was born 2100 years ago on the abandoned Neti home world. Discovered by smugglers he was taken to Zygeria and sold into slavery. From Zygeria he was sold to a Sith world where his shapeshifting abilities were taken advantage of and he became a rancor to haul goods. He was heavily valued as a slave due to his low costs for food and water, and his ability to lift heavy loads or fit in small areas. He started slaving at a mine where he would move boulders, later he would carry cranes. Around 2090 he was sold into a construction business where he helped build things for the Sith. Around 2070 he was sold into a factory farm where his job was to pick the crops and to scare off the animals that sought to eat the crops. He would often wind up on 16 hour shifts that went through the night do to not needing sleep and minimal rest. He discovered his force sensitivity on January 9th 2065 when he was playing a card game against other slaves for fun. After some time he gained a reputation among the slaves for being good at cards and when his master heard of this he played him a few times during the 8 hour break period. Discovering how good he had become his master entered him into a card tournament to show off against the other Slave owners. He won the tournament in 3rd place out of 20,000 participants. Impressing his master he was provided with a day's rest and a good plate of food before being put back to work. He would participate in the same contest every year for the next 6 years for a chance for a day off and he went from 3rd in his first try to fourth in his second, he would proceed to to Third again and then to second and finally to first where he would hold it. After 3 consecutive wins at the tournament he was eyed by a gambling slave owner who won Dragonheart in a game of cards and would use him as a dealer in his casino. It was a much better environment than before as this one required much less physical strain and less energy from shapeshifting. Here he would usually take the form of a human for convenience and trust purposes. He would often get won by varying gambles over the following years, including some Hutts sometimes who used his talents for many purposes. In 1990 after years of toil he was won for the last time by someone who would present him as a gift towards a Sith Inquestor. Here while serving the Sith he also learned a little about them. It wasn't long before a Jedi raid was conducted that while killing the Sith also served to free him. Not sure about when his birthday was, March 23rd 1988 was deemed to be his freedom day which he would celebrate as if a birthday. Not knowing about what to do, and forbidden from gazing upon the texts of his old owner, he would travel to a casino on the world and try and gamble, only to be kicked out for a lack of credits. This would impress upon him the need for the credits that he hadn't needed for so long. He would go and work at a shipyard for a little bit as a manual labourer gaining some money until he would return to the casino. Using his force sensitivity he would proceed to win a few card games and even win the jackpot. With his millions secured he would travel to the inner core and study at a university on Corellia where he got a minor in commerce and a major in history. He would get a masters in history, minoring in political science, and he would get a historical Ph.D. Minoring in both anthropology and biology. After finishing his education in 1978 he got an internship on Kamino where he would study cloning techniques. After the internship he became a respected scientist known as Dr. Forest "Pinetree" Wilkin. While there he worked on research into creating sentience in cloned bodies. Work that others would build on to eventually do powerful things in the Galaxy. Following his work on Kamino which ended after 15 years in 1963, he was given a send off and a paid flight to Coruscant where he worked for the republics government that he had learned about in political science. He worked for them for a while, learning a bit more about the government and the people that run it. Upon retiring after 10 years he got musical lessons and became a good singer and musician. He began playing in nightclubs soon enough and people seemed to like his tune, he bought a speeder and began playing all over. After a few years of playing he was mentioned to a production company and got a meeting which resulted in a deal. He got a small amount of credits for a year and he would play a few shows and the company would see where it went. It was slow at the start but as word of mouth flew by he began selling out clubs and after that theatres. The company renewed him for another year and things only got better. The company took a bigger gamble and sent him on a tour around coruscant to much success. Over the years he began a well known artist who played big band esque hits and would tour the inner core. This would start a century of entertainment where he would star in films and musical recordings that would be distributed galaxy wide. In 1889 he got off the bandwagon no stopped recording. Instead, with everything he could need, he went back to school on Alderaan. He would study biology as a major, and minor in spaceship engineering. After a renowned enducation he bought a freighter and began to travel the Galaxy. He started in the deep core and worked his way out over nearly 4 hundred years. Around 1500 he ceased to travel but had build on previous work to study the societies and species of the Galaxy, and the routes through it, which he published in scientific journals to great acclaim. Following his last scientific report he said farewell to the scientific community and went to the home world of the Dazouri and turned into a giant tree which surrounded his ship, and entered into a state of hibernation to rest. Around 1300 he awoke, rejuvenated, and transformed into the first sentient creatures he saw, the Dazouri. Using his ship he took off and entered hyperspace but when leaving he was soon taken prisoner by the Sith. Once again a slave he returned to a life of servitude and now with education, he served the Sith by fixing their ships and cleaning their hallways. Seeing him transform for the frost time into another creature to handle their tasks the Sith sought to experiment and went to operate. Fortunately a push against the planet led to his freedom once again by the Jedi. The Jedi offered him a chance to join them and he accepted.

Dr. Forest "Pinetree" Wilkin as his adopted legal name was, started as a Jedi Padawan and after 14 years he was matched with a Knight to follow. The knight he would follow had lots of conviction and courage. Under this knights tutelage he would follow him into meditation, battle, and the library without difference. Under this knight Forest earned the nickname "Dragonheart" for his own courage, conviction to duty, and willingness to help others. After 10 years they parted ways and Dragonheart was knighted. He would specialize in forms 2 lightsaber and travel off world and fight the Sith. He would often use his shapeshifting to his advantage, turning into huge beasts to frighten the Sith or overpower them. When off the battlefield he would spend much more time meditating and learning in the library than practicing lightsaber combat. Nonetheless he became a great practitioner of form 2 lightsaber combat and during the last 100 years of the new Sith wars he would earn the title of Jedi Lord. He would don battle armour and battle the Sith with great conviction, however following the Ruusan reformation he would refuse to stop defending his territory or give up his title. After a few debates he left the order.

Though Lord Dragonheart would no longer be a part of the republic military he would become a part of the galactic aristocracy. He was a benevolent ruler and always served his people. His calm and thought out way of making decisions earned him the bane Lord Dragonheart thr Patient. He would continue to rule over a star system for nearly 600 years and served in the senate for many of those years. After 2100 years of life order 66 had been given and the order seemed to fall apart, the republic fell under the sway of a Sith Lord, and the leader of the side he had chosen had been assassinated. Today while his privy council governs the system with his successor he serves as a military commander of the separatists using his private collection of ancient ships to fight to republic, and his citizens to man them.

[Helvetea]

At the moment, Karisa's fleet consists of

1 Star Destroyer
3 Frigates
6 Light Cruisers

[The V O I D]

Lord Vader's fleet currently consists of Pride of the Core and about fourteen Venator-class Star Destroyer Mark IIs.

They aren't exactly 'canon', per se, but they look cool and according to fan-wikis are the model used between Venator and Imperial I class Star Destroyers.

[Democratic East-Asia]

Wait, what year is it?

[The V O I D]

Wait, what year is it?

Based on OP, it's been 3 years since the Jedi Purge. According to fan-canon for the Venator-class Star Destroyer Mark IIs, (or for simplicity, the Venator IIs), they were originally under construction for the Republic and about a fleet's worth were almost done by the Jedi Purge, or a little bit after.

It's my assumption, then, that if Valyria allows for my semi-noncanon vessels (considering Pride of the Core itself is a noncanon vessel, pretty sure this is a non-issue) that they are the fleet's worth of the most modernized and advanced star destroyers in the galaxy, with Pride of the Core being the largest, most armed and most advanced of them.

Lord Vader would be gifted command of such a fleet due to... well, Second in Command of the Imperial Military.

[The Valyria Empire]

Non-canon ships I am fine with, as are races as long as they aren't ridiculous.

I would prefer to use canon ranks, Superweapons and canon force powers (No thought bombs). However I'm fairly flexible and can allow some things.

For those who don't know what the length of the Pride of the Core is, it's about 8,000 meters. It's estentially a Super Star Destroyer Prototype. However while it has a huge firepower with a lot of guns it is slow as per usual and has only one hangar.

The noncanon Venator II's length varies. Some fans say 1,500 meters; others say 4,000 meters. I'll say it's about 2,000 meters/2 km.

That means I have, essentially, a "super star destroyer" as my capital ship for Vader and fourteen Heavy Star Destroyers as my fleet.

And it'd make sense because I'm playing as Darth Vader.

[Helvetea]

Can't decide if my fleet should be recommissioned CIS ships, aside from the Artemisia.

[Turmenista]

Hi? I guess I can tag for a Dark Side force user?

I haven't read through some of the apps besides some slight skimming with canon characters like Vader but why would someone who's part of the Empire use CIS ships when they're fighting the CIS?

Inquisitors are fine, but they are very recent and have only been formed in the last year to counter the Jedi Remnants. The Jedi Remnants are slightly larger than the Inquisitiion.

I guess I'll be making an app for an inquisitor soon, albeit one not as powerful as someone like Vader. I don't want him to seem ridiculously overpowered.

Also, even with the few Inquisitors who are there, due to Suitless Vader, Vader would vastly overshadow them. And so would Sidious, but only because Vader would only train them enough to stand up to Jedi Knights and such, not so they can pick a fight with Vader himself, or Sidious.

Vader also probably will outpower Sidious in the Force by around 5-7 years IC time passing, give or take. So... depending on how loyal my Vader is, I'll probably have him choose the Grand Inquisitor (strongest Inquisitor/highest ranking) as his apprentice in secret, to train to give them an edge over Sidious at the very least in saber prowess.

Ultimately, there might be an Emperor Vader situation going on later on in the RP. Or, at the very least, Vader lays his support behind say, Piett, as next Emperor (as he knows Piett is easily controlled and will listen to him) as a sort of puppet, making him the de facto leader while someone else handles all the non-military, non-Inquisition nonsense for him.

[The Valyria Empire]

Hey guys, my bad here but I forgot to add this to the app. Under alligeance paid to could everyone add their rank (if this applies to you, if not don't worry). That was a goof on my part.

I added rank next to allegiance, if that's okay.

I can't wait to do this RP. RPing as Vader is fun. Suitless Vader will be even more fun.

[The Valyria Empire]

I would also like to ask those that have a fleet or squad to list the size, ships/vechiles in the notes section if you haven't. Just so I can get a better idea of what you're commanding, thank you VOID and Altegonnia for reminding me of this.

Mind if I make an Imperial High Admiral (Sector Command)? If that doesn't fit than a Fleet Admiral may be preferable. I want someone on the Frontline of things. Subservient to the higher ups but relatively independent.

Sidious intentionally designed Vader's suit to be disadvantaged to a sense in combat so that sidious would have an edge against him if he tried to betray him. Without that leg up in several years it would be reasonable for the Rule Of Two to go on course and for Vader to overthrow his master.


Speaking of which Vader does need to be careful. Sidious had planned before mustafar to weaken Vader to protect himself, he would likley do so later on here as well either by sabotage or other. An unmanned anakin needs to watch his back for attempts by palpatine to weaken him.

[Turmenista]

I'm probably gonna go for something basic as per making this Inquisitor, as, again, I don't want to have "making ridiculous characters" be my new speciality for New Years.

Yeah. Hence why Vader tries to ensure only men he trusts are ever on the bridge, and secretly hires engineers to check his ships after Imperial engineers (who might have unknown orders from the Emperor) to double check the integrity and everything of his ships.

Vader is going to be a bit paranoid on top of being an angry, hatred-filled Jedi-killer. He's also not really going to hesitate in capturing Padme and torturing her until he gets bored and kills her, mostly because Vader views her betrayal as unforgivable and has completely fallen to the Dark, with literally no hope of recovery. Even his children, if they become Jedi, aren't safe. My Vader is far, far more ruthless than his canon counterpart and will not undergo redemption in all likelihood. At least, there is very, very low chance of it.

I'm planning on making an Imperial High Admiral who commands some sector near either Rebel or CIS space. What do you think Vader could have to do with him? Technically speaking, Vader will be one of his superiors.

[Turmenista]

If this is an Inquisitor, I'm gonna go the Darth Mail route and presume Darth To-be-named was trained by Sidious.
