Yes it would, but its unlikely it survived the Empire's collapse.

And the Eclipse in my opinion would be a tad bit over powered with the superlaser

The APP

Name: Kadek Vandyre

Yo, the Pellaeon-class only carries 48 Predator-class fighters, not 480. Also, she carries 6 Nune-class Shuttles, not 16.

'Preciate it, I thought I literally copy-pasted the stats from the wiki page.

Double post, I know, but app fixed to reflect lore-accurate carrying capacity.

Thank you! Not entirely sure if a Commander would have command of a Pellaeon-class, but if that needs to be changed you may have to change his age and add to the bio a bit to reflect that, just letting you know. Also, not entirely certain that a Commander would get to such a rank at the age of 24, especially getting to be an Ensign at the age of 18. Ensigns normally gain that rank following their Academy training, which begins at the age of 18 and lasts for around four years...at least in the real world. In any case, I somehow doubt such a thing as him getting to that rank at 18 would occur. Just sayin.

Imperial Navy ranks, which the Coalition is based on, can be found here. I look forwards to this character and Grand Admiral Krast's relation with him.

I see where you're coming from. I was basing his age on the increasing reliance on younger generations of Officers after the Galactic Empire fell, if I'm not incorrect. If his age is a problem I understand, and you're right, most Officer training programs tend to last about 4 years in the real world, if it's an issue when the app is reviewed I'll look into switching it around.

Yes it would, but its unlikely it survived the Empire's collapse.

Oh definitely not. The rebellion would have destroyed it. I'm just thinking about superweapons that could possibly be in the market for the "scum and villainy" faction (I play a lot of x-wing miniature game). The eclipse was the first thing to come to mind, since Zann was really the only person to get his hands on the plans outside the emporer himself. But that's for WAY down the line.

A superweapon for...the "Scum and Villainy" faction? Hm. Sounds like something I need to put a stop to.

Speaking of possible super weapons down the line, maybe then the Sith can get themselves a Thought Bomb or Mass Shadow Generator

My goal is to end up with the alliance, so it's less for the scum and villainy and more, "what ship can only Raiden access through his criminal contacts, and use alliance resources to build to help him?"

Basically it's a shitty minimalist Death Star made by Hutts with garbage quality parts and poor workers.

Hint, it didn't work.

Oof. I mean that can't very hard to get ahold off. Convincing the alliance it's a good idea on the other hand...

As long as we don't get Sun Crusher levels of bullshit, I'm usually fine with superweapons.

[Jedi Council]

Sorry for not getting a post up today, and not reading over the one or two apps left to check, I have had an insanely busy Saturday.

I will have both of these done by tomorrow morning hopefully.

EDIT: I woke up wayyyyy to late so I have to head to work. However, I am of at 5 pm pacific time, so I will have all the time in the world after that

EDIT #2: I was able to post for Illia and Vedek, the Ilum post will come tonight.

[Union Princes]

The signing was about to begin! Shoot, that means so eone needs to wake up Norcor. He must've passed out from all that stress-drinking.

The APP

Name: Kadek Vandyre
Age: 32
Gender: Male
Allegiance paid to: The Coalition/The Fel Empire(EXPANDED UPON/EXPLAINED IN BIO)
Rank: Captain
Appearance: At full draw Captain Vandyre stands at 6'3. In uniform he presents a striking figure, his angular chin pronounced among his features, his sharp green eyes pierce deep into the eyes of those who approach him, regardless of rank or status. His skin is tanned, going along with his oak brown hair, which is cut into a side-shaven comb over. His black uniform is always pressed neatly and, combined with his straight posture, he clearly cuts the figure of a Coalition Officer. His facial expression is permanently contorted into a dismissive sneer, but not one of a man who thinks he is above those around him: it is one of a man who knows.
Personality: Kadek does not know the meaning of defeat, whether it be martial or otherwise. What one may constitute as a crushing blow he simply sees as a setback and, regardless of damage done, will return again to fight. It may take him days, months or even years: but he will return to his field of battle. While most Imperial Officers are ambitious to the point of stabbing one another in the back, Vandyre will only seek to further himself through acts of fealty and valor. He will not abide the mewling of the regular Officer Corps, doubtless that they care only for themselves, and has been known to descend to planetary surfaces and join boarding parties alongside his men. The lives of his crew and the Stormtrooper's under his command are of no little value to him, and a life spent should only be done so wisely, and with great respect.
Force Sensitive: No.
Skills/Powers: Tactician, Blaster prowess, Strategist.
Weaponry: SE-14r blaster pistol

Biography: Vandyre wasn't born in the time of the Fel Empire, although he was born on Bastion in it's shadow, but he had grown up with stories of it, and of the Empire that had preceded it. He knew, of course, of the tragic death of it's Emperor, the brutal years that followed and the barbarism of the Rebellion. His father had told him that loyalty to the Empire was a defining trait of every single good citizen, and he believed him. The Fel Empire had been the continuation of that great Empire, it's spiritual child, and was indeed made up of former Imperial citizens and members of it's Government. By being born the descendant of two great nations he knew that it was his duty to serve whomsoever was his superior in rank, but never to simply be subservient as a matter of simplicity. He glorified the Fel Empire and it's predecessor, but that was all childish visions.

For by the time of his growing, they had long gone from the world.

By all accounts the Coalition was, in part, the Fel Empire. They had not annexed, but much to his dismay it was simply a union of desperation in his eyes. At the age of 14 Vandyre entered into preparation courses to be a Coalition Officer, as his Father, Vikarus, spent lavishly on his education. Kadek knew his role in the Officer Corps would be assured, there was no end to the amount of bribery that would be accepted in a society so similar to that of the old Empires, but he would not allow his future fellows to simply assume he was riding on the coattails of his father. He threw himself into his studies viciously, consuming the doctrines and rhetoric of the Imperial Navy, for the infinite promise of space had called to him ever since he looked to the stars for the first time. For in Space a man could find anything, no matter what other told him: even an Empire.

At 18 Vandyre realized his dream of becoming an Officer with his commissioning as an Ensign. Immediately his "betters", those of superior rank, noticed his voracious desire to further himself. Ambition after all, is acceptable, but only when it is subservient to he who accepts it. But any offer of favors would not be accepted by him, nor would any request to perform some underhanded task in an attempt to aid one Officer in his squabble against another. No, he would not be caught up in the petty feuds that had ripped the Empire of old into petty warring planets. Much like children idealized famous heroes, Vandyre idealized the perfect Imperial Officer. Stoic, calculating, loyal and firm. That would be him one day, he thought, images of a robed man on his throne, Vandyre to his right. But for now his position in the Officer Corps was stagnant, his superior fellows ensuring they did everything in their power to hold him in his position. But numerous insurrections, problem causing Officers and other issues gave him the chance to put himself in the place he felt he truly deserved.

While he did not consider himself underhanded, the 32 year old recently promoted Captain felt no reprehension for the Officers that continued to disappear around him. They were, of course, a detriment to the functioning of the Coalition. The Captain that preceded him had used his position to "redirect" shipboard funding for repairs and the like to his personal bank account, and Lieutenant Vandyre had been very keen to hear this news. Nobody complained when the information was anonymously released in conjunction with the C's oddly convenient death by dioxis, funneled into his chambers through an air duct. It was only proper that Vandyre, the most well put together of the bunch directly beneath him, take his place. This was backed by the possibility that denying him his promotion in favor of a personal friend might lead to some...unsavory results.

Having received his first personal command aboard "The Centurion", Vandyre now finds himself in a uniquely independent position. While still subject to the Coalitions chain of command, of course, he alone commands the ship under normal circumstances, and his intentions are known only to him.

And to him they are most clear.
RP Example:

The Centurion
Command Bridge

"Captain on deck!"

The bridge snapped to attention, the silence permeated only by the clanking of steel beneath Vandyre's boots. His hands were tightly pressed to the small of his back, his brown hair swept into a comb-over and flattened to his head. The sides were shaven neatly, the droid in charge of delivering such cuts clearly programmed well. As he passed every man and woman on the bridge they stood a little straighter, the platform he walked a few feet above their stations showing only his feet as they were passed. After a brief few moments he arrived at the head of the display platform, showing the vastness of space in front of him. "Be seated." His voice echoed for a brief moment in the still space, followed by the swishing of uniforms and the creaking of stationary chairs as the crew seated itself as one. Immediately chatter began again and aids rushed back and forth from station to station, the navigational and communications personnel present glued to their screens. "Lieutenant," his gaze slid coolly over to the young woman standing next to him, "I'll take my cycle status report now."

Immediately she raised her head a few centimeters higher, preparing to belt out her morning ritual. "Sir, the food supply incident has been resolved. A few of the upper echelon of supply Officers were stealing some of the more popular items out of storage and distributing them out among personal friends and selling them to the lower enlisted. The ringleader has been detained along with a few of those involved, but no action has been taken." She stopped for a moment and allowed him to mull over the information before continuing. "Two rotational cycles ago we passed another Coalition ship and, after a hail followed by brief polite greetings, the channel was closed and we continued about our business." At this Vandyre tilted his head and raised a brow questioningly. "And you didn't think to wake me?" She paused for a moment at this, shaking her head. "No, Sir. Nothing official was exchanged and the record simply shows a brief interaction based solely on a desire to extend a greeting to our comrades. Nothing more." The Captain nodded then, satisfied. "Very well, is that all?" The Lieutenant nodded eagerly, ready to be free from the conversation. "Raise our Intelligence Officers on the Comm's channel and have them report to the holding cells for the Supply Officers. Following questioning the ringleader is to be demoted and sentenced to half pay for the next month and a reduction in rank. The rest are to receive half pay, no punishment to follow. Carry on, Lieutenant."

The young woman saluted and quickly hustled down the platform in the direction the Captain had come from, determined to complete her task in a timely manner. She turned for a brief moment as the portal-like door closed behind her, only to see the Captain turned back and watching her as she left, his face contorted yet still into a sneer.

"If I didn't know any better", she thought to herself, "I'd think the next time I fell asleep would be my last".

As the door closed Vandyre turned back, facing the infinite chasm of space. He let his arms relax for a brief moment before crossing them over his chest, inhaling and exhaling heavily once. He was not content.
