As far as droids how does this sound.

1 Modified IG-86
2 Modified Prowlers
1 Astromech droid
2 GH-7 Medical Droid


I suppose that would depend on how modified the droids would be. Modifications can do a heck of a lot for both the appearance, and therefore the public perception, or they can be very, very discreet. The base numbers would work better, though I'm unsure if he really needs two medical droids. Then again those guys are sorta small. Could be easier to hide...or used to masquerade as a doctor opening up a clinic on the station.

I think with that number of droids then the doctor idea would work nicely and would be a good cover if keeping the backstory and being on the run? Feel free to update your sign up accordingly and then I'll accept when you throw up an RP example, just let me know when you do.

Nice post, Cheye! I like it. Would you be so kind, though, to point-out which member of security is under Doc's payroll? I'd assume one of the Gamorreans, but apparently they're stubborn, loyal, and not well-suited to her work for them (though the fact that Gamorrean society is a matriarchy would work well for Doc). Maybe the human, Silas Axin? I doubt the Security Chief work want to work for her, considering he seems against Doc and is quite honor-bound, and the Gigoran likely dislikes Doc's Trandoshan hires. I just don't want to make assumptions.

I think Nat and Doc will have a chat soon.

Thanks! Yeah I thought they should talk soon but maybe after Oleg doesn't show up for work? :twisted:

I was definitely thinking Silas Axin would be your guy if you still want one to be?

Name: Dren
Age: 39
Species: Lasat
Appearance: A muscular man, he has grey patches of fur on his face, with a scar and a grizzled look. He stands at roughly 6'6 and weighs almost 270 pounds. He is missing a finger on his left hand.
Gender: Male
Profession: Bodyguard, former Lasan High Honor Guard
Equipment/Weapons: CJ-9 Bo-rifle (can turn into a bo-staff), 2 E-5 blaster rifles which are used as pistols.
Pets/Droids/Companions: Reprogrammed and repainted B-1 battle droid, nicknamed Twitch. Carries an E-5 blaster rifle with a thermal scope. Masculine programming. Able pilot.
How you got to Orondia: His personal G9 Rigger class light freighter
Reason for travel to Orondia: Looking for work. Staying in the sleeping quarters of his ship.
Bio:
Born to a warrior family on Lasan that had a history of becoming Honor Guard, Dren, born Drenniax Gorbiv, is a skilled fighter with melee and ranged weapons, training with a legendary bo-staff. He had a tough childhood, going through harsh conditions to become a warrior. His father, a strict man, had him punished for failing a trial early in his career by having a finger removed from Dren's left hand. This made Dren realize that the Honor Guard were an organization of order and uniformity, something that he did not like. The Lasat became a disgrace on Lasan when he stole his father's G9 freighter and blasted him with an E-5 blaster rifle, crippling the man. Wanted on his homeworld, Dren bounced from Taris to Tatooine and spaceport to spaceport looking for work. Eventually, the beast of a man found work as a hired gun, protecting senators and separatists, alike. Hired to protect the senator from Lasan, he was pardoned from all of his crimes after he protected the senator from an assassination attempt by separatist forces. The Lasat scavenged a malfunctioning battle droid from the assassination attempt and began to tinker. Dren reprogrammed the droid into a bodyguard unit, naming it Twitch. Twitch is a valuable companion, able to take down three battle droids by itself with ease. A search for a new job took the pair of Meat and Metal to Orondia, where they await clients.

RP Example:
The trip to Orondia...


A large Lasat and a blue B-1 battle droid are in the cockpit of a G-9 light freighter. The Lasat is pacing around the cockpit biting his lip as the droid sets the course through hyperspace to Orondia.
"Twitch," A booming voice came from the mouth of the beastly Lasat. "Do we know for sure if we can even find a job, here? Most of my jobs came from Coruscant or Taris, a big city world."

"According to my calculations, master, the spaceport here is filled with meat such as yourself. We should be able to find a job, easily. There is lots of varying life on the planet." The droid pressed a big blue button that jumps to hyperspace. "The meat here often like to interact with each other." Stars blur as the freighter makes the jump.

"But what if nobody hires us? We don't have much of a reputation, here. I guess we can find out what kind of jobs people need done, over here." The Lasat, Dren, strokes his grizzled chin as he takes a seat in the co-pilot chair. "I guess we can make a name for ourselves somehow."

"Precisely, master. Jango Fett made a name for himself by becoming the best bounty hunter to ever fly a starship. Can we not do the same?" The droid leans back in its chair. "I see no reason as to why we cannot do the same, master."

The Lasat cracks his knuckles. "Are we almost there, yet? I'm itching for a decent meal." His stomach growls. They forgot to buy snacks on Taris. "I hope they serve Tauntaun, here." Tauntaun was Dren's favorite delicacy. He especially loved it flame-roasted.

"Meat eating other meat. What a primitive idea," said the B-1 as the ship landed in the spaceport. "Let us stay here for a while after we dock, master. I have no desire to tangle with meat, right now." The droid scanned the ship for its E-5 blaster rifle.

"Alright, Twitch. Just for the night, but in the morning we head into the spaceport to find some work." The Lasat grabbed his own E-5 rifle and placed it next to his offhand E-5. His bo-rifle leaned against his bunk, shined and polished. It was special to him - given to him by a mentor who passed away shortly after granting Dren the rifle. Dren climbed into his bunk and tried to get some sleep, for a good worker was a rested worker.

That works. At some point I'll add him to my character app. For reference, how tall is Nat by the way?

Also I think I'm racist towards Lasat. Every time I see one, I get Zeb flashbacks and god please I don't need that. That said holy shit he shot his dad! Cool. That said, unsure how much work you could get here as a hired gun...

Jek Stone: son/crewmember, 19 years old, armed with a MSM DD6 blaster pistol
How you got to Orondia: Dak Stone owns an old, battered and heavily modified CEC YU-410 light freighter named Falling Rock, which is his primary means of transport.
Reason for travel to Orondia: The Stones are here to drop off a load of ore. Once the ore's been dropped off, they're planning on looking for cargo or passengers. They don't have a set route, but they often stop at the station when they're out this way.
Bio: Dak Stone was born into the tramp freighter business, and grew up on his father's freighter. When Dak turned twenty two, his father retired and put him in charge of the freighter. He promptly went off on a voyage, with his brother, Echo, and a friend for a crew. It was after this voyage that he met his future wife, Jes, who was a twenty year old apprentice power plant technician at the time, and was training on a nearby ship. They happened to run into each other, and the pair became fast friends. They kept in touch, and began dating about a year after they first met. They continued dating for another year, despite Dak's traveling. They got engaged, and then married, after Jes got her power plant technician certification. Jes joined the crew of Dak's ship. They eventually had two sons. By the time Jek was born, Dak's brother had gotten married and owned his own ship. When Deke was born, the crew consisted of Dak, Echo, and Jes. To help run the ship, they managed to enlist Jes' younger brother. By the time Jek was ten, he was practically a full member of the crew. They had run-ins with pirates over the years, but always managed to fight them off or run. Over the years, the Falling Rock has been heavily modified over the years. It's faster, with better shields, scanners, and guns, and other things. They've run cargos for governments, citizens, and others. They've stayed neutral in the war, occasionally running cargos for either side. They've been down and out before, but they have always pulled through. Dak loves his ship, and the freedom and opportunity it brings.

The mods for the prowler well be very discreet.
The IG-86 mods will consist of forearm mounted blasters & carry swords for hand to hand combat.

Yea I really like the doctor idea. I get the resubmission post as soon as I can, everything’s been kinda crazy with thnx giving & Black Friday.

Sorry I've been a little busy this weekend - this is all good and a fun read, agree with Ormata that you may have come to the wrong place to find work given the 'barely operable' status of the station. Though that should change as things move forward and really that's more of a problem for your character to navigate than with your app. Love the B1! It's like a cross between Bones from Aftermath and HK-47 from Kotor.

Would it be alright for Oleg to die next post? I don't want to rush things but to be honest I'm unsure as to do. I could do a post for the planning and preparation. Do we have the one character limit? Lastly (Sorry for all the questions) if you want I could do a linked roster.

Equipment/Weapons: Electrostaff, DC-17A, and Wrist Rocket.

RP Example: 100 Credits jangled in his pocket. That was all he had left. He needed a job, or a place to stay, at the least. He noticed a small station up ahead. Orondia. He had heard about this place. It was a small station, but it was a place to keep low for a while. As he flew into one of the few hangers, his old ship started to make a noise. He was used to this, as this ship was from the Old Republic days, and he decided to ignore the rattling. The door dropped down from his ship, and he started to walk into the station.

Sorry I've been a little inactive these last few days. I really like the family freighter pilot idea - its different to all the other apps we've had so kudos for that!

Hey Ormata, I'm happy for you to do a post killing Oleg if nobody else is ready to post yet (it makes sense for where we're at), though I would welcome posts from everyone else who has joined in the meantime!

I think getting the bar open will be the priority so that everyone else feels they have a social and neutral environment to bring their characters into so I will be coming up with some creative alternatives to Oleg to solve the problem of not having a barman.

I'd rather keep it to one character plus followers for now, but if we reach a point where others aren't (for whatever reason) posting and it just becomes a smaller group of us, then we can look at increasing?

Lastly - don't apologise for questions. I'm glad you are asking them - I'm the one who should be sorry for not being able to reply quicker! If you want to do a linked roster that'd be good, though I'd appreciate keeping the format the same as the editted OP.

Thanks for your sign-up Derika! Would you mind putting a bio/backstory together for your character, as at the moment he could be anybody? I don't mind the shorter RP example because it should turn into quite a social RP, but having a backstory will be essential for creating a storyline with your character. Unless of course you are planning to do so and this is just a WIP?

Bio: Liehiry was born on Corellia in 47 BBY. All he had known was ships and shipbuilding, since Corellia was known for that. His parents had worked for CEC. Liehiry had planned to work for CEC, and continue his families name. However, Liehiry had a change of heart. Since his family had connections to some of the biggest ship makers, Liehiry bought a D-5 Mantis at a reduced price. Since he had this old ship, he had to find work. When he heard about the Clone Wars, he needed to take this opportunity as a mercenary.

Done!
Name: Dak Stone
Age: 46
Species: Human (Corellian)
Appearance: Dak Stone is 1.8 meters tall, with brown eyes and graying hair that is still partly brown. His face is heavily tanned and weathered, with a graying beard. He is of a medium build, and generally wears a battered green flight suit and spaceman's boots.
Gender: Male
Profession: A mostly honest tramp freighter captain, who runs guns once in a while
Equipment/Weapons: A tool belt containing these items: some small multitools, a comm link, a sheath knife, a datapad, and a holstered DH-17 blaster pistol.
Pets/Droids/Companions:
Jes Stone: wife/copilot, 44 years old, carries a heavily modified MSM Power 5 heavy blaster pistol.
R2-Z4 "Echo": astromech, never had his memory wiped, mostly stays shipboard
Deke Stone: son/crewmember, 17 years old, armed with a DL-22 blaster pistol
Jek Stone: son/crewmember, 19 years old, armed with a MSM DD6 blaster pistol
How you got to Orondia: Dak Stone owns an old, battered and heavily modified CEC YU-410 light freighter named Falling Rock, which is his primary means of transport.
Reason for travel to Orondia: The Stones are here to drop off a load of ore. Once the ore's been dropped off, they're planning on looking for cargo or passengers. They don't have a set route, but they often stop at the station when they're out this way.
Bio: Dak Stone was born into the tramp freighter business, and grew up on his father's freighter. When Dak turned twenty two, his father retired and put him in charge of the freighter. He promptly went off on a voyage, with his brother, Echo, and a friend for a crew. It was after this voyage that he met his future wife, Jes, who was a twenty year old apprentice power plant technician at the time, and was training on a nearby ship. They happened to run into each other, and the pair became fast friends. They kept in touch, and began dating about a year after they first met. They continued dating for another year, despite Dak's traveling. They got engaged, and then married, after Jes got her power plant technician certification. Jes joined the crew of Dak's ship. They eventually had two sons. By the time Jek was born, Dak's brother had gotten married and owned his own ship. When Deke was born, the crew consisted of Dak, Echo, and Jes. To help run the ship, they managed to enlist Jes' younger brother. By the time Jek was ten, he was practically a full member of the crew. They had run-ins with pirates over the years, but always managed to fight them off or run. Over the years, the Falling Rock has been heavily modified over the years. It's faster, with better shields, scanners, and guns, and other things. They've run cargos for governments, citizens, and others. They've stayed neutral in the war, occasionally running cargos for either side. They've been down and out before, but they have always pulled through. Dak loves his ship, and the freedom and opportunity it brings.
RP Example: This link is from an older RP, if that's all right.

Sorry I've been a little inactive these last few days. I really like the family freighter pilot idea - its different to all the other apps we've had so kudos for that!

S'okay. RL gets in my way frequently. This character was actually inspired by an old Robert Heinlein novel, so it's not completely my idea.

Any room for a washed-up clone scout trooper turned bounty hunter?

Yes, I use JG Scale. No, Franscale is not better.

Tentatively accepting this, as he sounds exactly like the kind of person who might be passing through looking for somewhere to stay, Please feel free to flesh out some of his experiences as a mercenary if you want to add more drama for him to have gone through. This might help spice up conversations with other characters once things get going.

Absolutely - quite a compelling idea, you'd just need to come up with a good reason why he deserted, given the clone wars are still raging. Given there are canon examples of this happening though that shouldn't be too hard! I look forward to your sign-up!

Yeah, I was gonna add some more, but I didn't have time. I'll bring up stuff that was more private for the character.

I've replied to your first post - please be aware that Ormata's character is currently involved in a plot to kill the bartender so if you wish for Liehiry to talk with Oleg, please reply sooner rather than later, so that we can wrap the bartender dying up without it affecting the flow of the RP!
