Star Wars: Jedi Academy (OOC|Closed)

[Anowa]

Does a close include secondary char apps or just to new comers not already in the RP?

Both.

If your character dies your free to make a new one, but don't make a second character.

[The Orson Empire]

So Anowa, will characters be able to turn to the dark side later in the RP?

Dying would be rather unpleasant...

Tread lightly, fellow padawan... ;]

[Empire of Donner land]

So Anowa, will characters be able to turn to the dark side later in the RP?

If it makes sense, IIRC, Anowa doesn't want someone turning into Darth Edge with little development to justify it.

[Dentali]

Name: Bren Sezala
Age: 17
Gender: M
Species: Bothan

Appearance: Young Bothan with dark brown fur, tall and slender

Lightsaber: Pale Green dual phase single bladed lightsaber
Equipment: Basic adventuring gear (torches, extendable 10 ft poll, binoculars, medkit etc.) blaster pistol as a backup, hacking kit

Personality: Calculating, Intuitive, Quiet and contemplative
Likes: Music, strict organization, history, droids
Dislikes: Disorder, Imperials,
Goals: Be the hero for the Republic he has heard so much about, become a lightsaber master, find ancient jedi knowledge
Fears: The destruction of his family, his deficiency in the force will make him a bad Jedi,

Background:

Bren Sezala was born on the Bothan colony world of Kothlis in the Mid Rim to a wealthy family with the controlling share of the Compart Corporation, a Bothan company that mass produced droid circuitry and components. His family had been active in covertly supplying and funding the Rebel Alliance from its infancy, providing directly and indirectly a sizable portion of the ships in the Bothan Sector Force.

He was more or less raised to treat the Empire as a constant foe, being raised on stories of its corruption and brutality. A number of his cousins and friends would run off an join the rebellion (and later the New Republic), while he was stuck learning the family business alongside his 3 siblings but constantly busied himself learning how to fight and hack droids, preparing for the day he would be able to fight alongside his friends and family. After the destruction of the second Death Star and the shattering of the Empire, Bren's family used their connections with the former rebel forces to achieve political prominence.

Kyle Katarn discovered Sezala less than a year before the start of the RP. He had heard the Sezala family had a history of Force Sensitives and checked in to see if any of the current members had a strong connection to the force, which was welcomed by a family that saw sending a member to the New Jedi Order as a shrewd political move. Bren did have the connection but it was minimal, and he found himself unable to use many force techniques such as telekinesis. Despite early frustrations he found that he could still tap into more passive force techniques such as immediate precognition and allowing the force to guide his movements or enhance his body. Coupling this with his combat training he has been able to become an incredible adapt swordsman, taking an ancient lightsaber of his ancestor known as the Green Destiny and dedicating himself to using his limited force abilities in concert with his lightsaber technique.

Skills: Excellent Swordsman with particular aptitude for defensive stances and form 3, genius level intellect, family money and connections, his family history with droids gives him experience and insight into hacking droids
Weaknesses: No force abilities that effect anything other than his own body, frail body

DO NOT REMOVE: Revanchist

[Nornsmark]

Name: Redrel Prizevahl
Age: 24
Gender: Male
Species: Human

Appearance: Average height, with a somewhat stocky build. Medium length curly mop of brown hair, which is typically unkempt. Pale blue eyes, and a ritualistic tattoo in dark blue above his nose, in the center of his forehead. The tattoo is roughly diamond shaped, with an intricate series of smaller diamonds and chevrons making up the pattern. His nose is somewhat wide, with a small scar crossing just across it's bridge. His skin is pale, and seems to have a tendency to burn easily in sunlight.

Lightsaber: A blue saber pike, with a custom-made collapsible stave.
Equipment: Comlink, a deck of old sabacc cards and a thin, ornate hardwood-and-electrum tabac pipe. Tends to hide a utility knife in his boot. Has a tin of high-end hard candies in his satchel, right next to his tabac.

Personality: Joking, even in perilous situations. Also tends to be grating, and/or irritating. Disregards tabac-free signs consistently, and has been given numerous remedial meditation sessions. Oddly enough, he has a strong sense of duty and personal honor, and a responsible streak.
Likes: Sweets, Sabacc, Gambling and Tabac. Really, it's shocking that they even excepted him. Also, credits.
Dislikes: Tabac-free signs, most authority, meditation, and most spicy foods. Losing, as well. He hates losing.
Goals: Reclaim his family starship, which lies in an Ord Mantell scrapyard.
Fears: Thunder, and snake-like organisms.

Background: Ah, Redrel Prizevahl. Born to a remarkably boring family during the Civil War, he and his family of perhaps-not-so-above-board smugglers free and independent traders lived a fairly average life on the Outer Rim, doggedly avoiding Imperial squadrons, evading bounty hunters and dealing with Hutts. It was a good, simple life until their hyperdrive broke down, forcing the ship to remain on Ord Mantell. While this wasn't a bad thing, it did mean the end of the young Redrel's spacefaring adventure. After two weeks of fruitless bartering for repairs, the family ship, the Unexpected Prize, was sent to the local scrapper, stripped of anything especially valuable and left to rot in an Ord Mantellian scrapyard. His family did well enough for itself however, the last cargo (an illicit shipment of kyber crystals) selling for a decent price and allowing the Prizevahls to setup shop as a local cantina. A memento of his last adventure, he kept a small, faintly glowing blue crystal as a good luck charm. It seemed to work, to.

As the years went by, more and more, fortune seemed to favor him. For example, he dropped a tray of ale, and when he went to catch it it seemed to hover, imperceptibly for just a moment as he grabbed it. Incidents like these continued, increasing in frequency and potency every time until it became impossible to overlook as just good fortune. Fortune, isn't magic. No, this was something different. Rumors of the magic kid from the cantina had spread far, though, far enough for what appeared to be a bounty hunter to come for him.

It was a day, much like any other when it happened. A man stepped into the bar, dressed in a brown cloak and robes. He ordered a glass of blue milk and a steak. Seeing as bounty hunters and bounties weren't uncommon in the somewhat lawless confines of Ord Mantell, Redrel at first didn't think anything of it. It was when the robed man tripped him, that he thought something of it. The glass of blue milk flew high, and on reflex and fear her grasped for it despite it being just out of reach. The glass froze midair, hovering, as if snagged on some invisible strings. Not a drop had spilled and Redrel looked at the man, a sheepish smile spreading across his face, as the man gave him a knowing smirk. And so, Redrel dashed out the door, sprinting as fast as he possibly could, but the chase was short. Fifteen minutes, three tearful goodbyes and a single scolding later, Redrel Prizevahl was on a shuttle to Praxeum.

Skills: Gambling, brawling, lying and remarkably talented with manipulating the Force.
Weaknesses: Gambling, laziness, lying and a general disregard for any proper authority. His saber skills are a bit below average as well.

Name: Caio Esau
Age: 22
Gender: Male
Species: Human

Appearance: 6'0 and weighing 88kg. Sharp jaw and clean shaven, the most stand out piece of clothing is Caio's preference for a thick black band wrapped around his head, covering his left eye. His hair is light brown, but shaven on the sides and tied back into a short ponytail. He also possess burn mark stretching from the right side of his neck to just underneath where his left eye, which is milk white underneath, hence why he keeps it covered.

Lightsaber: Green single blade, regular grip
Equipment: Handful of credits and a cheap comlink

Personality: Caio is regarded as a trusting, kind, and inquisitive young man, slow to anger and often attempting to avoid fighting at all times. He has an unshaking faith in the will of the Force, and in the innate kindness of everyone, and as such views fighting as antithesis to the natural state of the universe. He maintains a strong moral compass and will often always strive to do what he believes is right, no matter what. He also has an intense desire to learn anything and everything he can, from the mysteries of the Force, to the history of the Jedi and the Order, believing that only through learning and understanding the past, can they avoid the mistakes that have been made in the past. Despite a sensible outwards appearance, there are still small remnants of Caio's wild streak that occasionally flairs up.

Likes: Learning, anything sweet, exploration, adventure
Dislikes: Violence as anything other than a last resort, restrictions on learning, being pre-judged, lack of self-control
Goals: Caio's sole goal is to see the Jedi regain its role as peacekeepers for the galaxy, and to do his part in maintaining peace in the galaxy
Fears: Explosions, failing to protect those under his care

Background: Born in 3 BBY, Caio's experience of both the Empire and the following Civil War was certainly much more up front and personal than most other peoples, for his father had been a rather high ranking member of the Imperial Senate for many years until its dissolution a year after he was born. From this seat of relative luxury, it was expected that Caio would grow up and eventually take his father's place in the Senate, but even the dissolution of the Senate did not dissuade his parents that this fact would change, thus they remained on Coruscant till 2 ABY, when his mother caught him utilising the force to play with his toys. Terrified of her husband, a committed Imperial, of finding out that his son was Force-sensitive and conscious that he would not hesitate to report him to the authorities, she quickly fled with her child to a number of nameless planets that one could flee to if laying low was the aim.

For the next three years, both Caio and his mother had to survive off of the charity and kindness of others, all the while hiding from bounty hunters and stormtroopers alike as they searched for the Lost Son of the Senator, who began to offer higher and higher bounties for his return. It wasn't until the signing of the Galactic Concordance and the discovery that Caio's father had been arrested during the Coruscant Civil War that they were able to breathe freely again, having settled on Corellia. By the time Caio turned 10, his mother had remarried a starship mechanic who, while frequently away, still provided the pair with comfort they hadn't experienced for a decade, with Caio being able to attend formal education and have daily meals.

It was in the relative peace and comfort that Caio really began to play around with his force powers, both out of curiosity and after being egged on by the handful of close friends that were aware of his Force-sensitivity. From using it for small childish pranks, such as throwing water and pushing people over, to convincing teachers to raise his marks, Caio started to become proficient in his abilities, but still stayed quiet about it, lest he attract unwanted attention. However, this happiness could not last forever. When he turned 15, a bounty hunter arrived at the doors of his step-father's workshop, where Caio's stepfather was attempting to teach an uninterested Caio the intricacies of mechanics. The bounty hunter had been sent by his biological father, with the recovery of his son and elimination of his mother the priority. A flurry of blaster shots rang out, and soon Caio's stepfather was lying on the floor. Despite taking a blaster shot to his arm, Caio still attempted to dissuade the bounty hunter from carrying out his mission, slowing making his way to the backdoor. However, heaving heard the commotion from the house, his mother entered the workshop and was likewise quickly shot by the bounty hunter. This proved to be the final straw for Caio, who pushed out violently with the Force, sending the bounty hunter flying and accidentally starting a raging fire in the workshop. Caio desperately attempted to protect his mother's , but he could not hold back the flames, which permanently scarred his face and permanently damaged his left eye, before his passed out.

Waking up days later, Caio found that his mother had managed to survived the assassination attempt, with the only solace coming from the whole tragedy being that the link between the bounty hunter and his father had been discovered, leading to his eventual arrest. With the last threat in their life gone, the two of them attempted to rebuild what was left of their life. With their neighbours and friends coming from across the city to help them, Caio began to believe that helping each other was the natural state of all beings. With this in mind, he began to earnestly read and research what caused people to turn bad, his hunger for knowledge growing and growing, his reading soon branched out to every book that was available to him to read.

By the time he was 20, Caio had become much more aware of the state that the galaxy was in, but he refused to let this change who he was. When he was discovered by the New Jedi Order, he eagerly accepted their invitation to join, believing that with the authority wielded by the Jedi, he could finally begin to help people on a scale previously unimagined.
Skills: Strong connection to the force, charismatic, Caio's experience with multiple alien cultures has allowed him to become both their intricacies, but also in a number of their languages, Caio is also remarkably able at controlling his emotions, especially following his loss of control following the death of his step-father
Weaknesses: When pushed over the limit, Caio risks losing control over his force powers and feeding into the emotion that powers the dark side, however hours of practice and self-control has allowed him to maintain a lid on his emotions. Additionally, Caio's committed to avoiding violence and belief that anyone can be redeemed and returned to good can lead to disastrous consequences should he refuse to fight for too long or grant mercy to the wrong person. Additionally, the use of a lightsaber is completely alien to Caio, who had believed them fiction until he had seen one wielded by Luke Skywalker and other Jedis.

[The GAmeTopians]

Just wanted to get this up before I pass out, let me know tomorrow if you want more.

Name: Samira Icejade
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Species: Human

Appearance: 5'6", 130 pounds. The rest is visible in the image.

Lightsaber: Single-bladed, green.
Equipment:

The attire shown in the image
Personal comlink

(I would ask for a ship, but I think that's a no haha)

Personality: Cool, collected. Knows what she needs and what she needs to do to get it.
Likes: Space, Starships, Adventure (though she'll hide any excitement)
Dislikes:
Goals: Bring peace to at least part of the galaxy, if she can. Explore the mysteries of the force.
Fears: The pull of the dark side. The Sith.

Background: Samira was born in the slums of Coruscant, a street rat with a quick mind and quicker reflexes. She never knew her parents - the only thing they left behind was the D-18 blaster she's kept by her side all her life, at least according to the barkeep who raised her, Laz Icejade. He'd never shown too much fondness for her, but he did right by Samira - kept her fed, taught her how to survive in the Undercity, and gave her a place to stay. While she didn't hesitate to move on as soon as she possibly could, she would always be grateful to Laz for the care he gave her early on.
The end of the Civil War didn't have all that much impact in the Undercity - dreary slum work is still dreary, with or without the empire. But the hum-drum life of short side-jobs and scrap work ended for Samira when, one day, a rather odd group of merchants graced the Golden Rancor Cantina, Laz's fine establishment. As it turned out, one of their number was an individual tracking down names on a list of force sensitive individuals - which, for some reason, included Samira. Confused, unsure, but excited, Samira said her goodbyes and departed for Yavin 4.

Skills: Starship Piloting, Gunnery, Blaster Pistol Training
Weaknesses: Still largely untrained with the force.

RP Example: Think we've done plenty together.

Couple questions...

1. Do the Praxeum have a library because i can't find one mentioned in the wiki?
2. How does training with Masters work? I'd like to have my guy do some with Master Katarn

Appreciated. I'll hop in with a quick post. Samira will most likely just head off to clean her blaster and rest, unless someone else is looking for interaction?
