Rp name changed to: Star Wars: The Clone Wars
Okay, this is for all of those star wars fans out there like me!!!
this rp is set in the star wars universe.....no der, anyway anybody is welcome to join.you can create any Character from the star wars universe. EXCEPT NO ultra powerful Jedi that can bring down entire Star Ships (eg, Darth Vaders Apprentice or anyone similar). you can have as many characters as you can control. this rp is based on the clone wars era.
If you would like to join can you please fill out your characters details like this.
Name: TK 2755 (Axel)
Rank or Status: Commander
Personality: Serious when need be, makes jokes on occasion
Weapons: Blaster rifle, Blaster pistols x2
Vehicle: LAAT gunship
(optional) : 4 troopers with him at all times
history: Axel is a clone trooper, he is the commander of the 325th legion that is stationed on the planet Endor. During the battle of Geonosis he was awarded a medal for his bravery when he took out a seperatist factory with 2 other troopers. since then he has been stationed on the planet endor for quiet some time.....
Hope all you star wars fans want to join!!! it would be great!!! my first rp!!!
Basis of the start...
It is in the middle of the clone wars, Captain Rex and Commander Cody were sent on a security check to the planet Endor. They had to check up on the little outpost to see if the bunker was in good condition and there were no security breaches.
"well, everything looks in top shape, what do you think Cody?"
"i think these boys have looked after this bunker very well Rex, alright the security check is over now, let's go"
Cody and Rex exited the bunker and went out to the landing platform.
inside...
"well, i think that since you troops did all this hard work, i'll let you all have a rest for an hour" Said Axel as he nodded his head
(troops) "alright!"
Troops run off
Hope it sounds good so far, BTW you don't have to make up an entirely new character. you can choose an existing Character eg, Obi-wan-kenobi, Anakin sky-walker ect--
RPG has been moved toHERE (http://z3.invisionfree.com/RPGs_Unleashed/index.php?showtopic=1&st=0&#last)
-
I guess this is taking place between episodes 2 and 3? May seem a dumb question but I just wanted to be sure. If you want the thread name changed I think an admin can do that so feel free to pm any admin you talk to or see the most of.
-
Yes it is based between episodes 2 and 3, i also don't want to bother an admin just to change the name when i'm going to change the name anyway when it comes to the actual RP
-
Ok. you can request the name change then. You'll have to to keep a close eye on chars since it's easy to do a very powerful character. I may do a lower power level jedi, maybe one who is just graduated from being a padwan but has no padwan his/her self yet since I would assume since it makes more sense that with most only after a while getting experience would the council allow you to do so or suggest maybe you should. Not sure of species but one can make one, or use a species from any episode or even dark horse's graphic novels including some set in the old republic. Though I think it is canon that the race that appears in the first KOTOR game does become extinct I believe, or abandoned their home world and may have set up one elsewhere or may have no actual home world they use anymore. Rakata, that is their name, I found it on a star wars wiki.
Some may find a star wars wiki useful: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page (http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page)
I also wonder if this will be a frequent posters only like the fantasy rp? If so it should be marked or mentioned as such. If it will be not sure if I'd be in it.
-
the rp will be sort of slow going, because i have noticed not many people can keep up with fast rp's. BTW thanks for getting the star wars wiki for me!
you have a good idea for your character so far
-
A bit vague but an ok one. Not sure about species. Some bits of their personality or attitude I may take from Jolee Bindo from the Kotor game. As I recall he didn't go with emotions are evil and lead to the dark side, his was more the intent behind is what the indicator is. I'm sure he'd say using force lightning to start the heart of someone who had a heart attack isn't dark side, it's light. Using it to charge a power cell is neutral or gray, ect. Though likely the char will have to keep that attitude to themselves. Not that my char will have force lightning, just using that as an example.
I may do like I did with my other chars. Work on making the char in notepad, put the info up on my private forum site, then do a link here. That way I don't have to care about length since I give myself permission to have my char info as long as I want.
-
okay sounds good Kor
-
I guess the group will have access to a ship, or someone in the group will own a ship? Though individuals could have small personal transports like the electric unicycle I read about in a past issue of popular science. (they have the article & pictures online at: http://www.popsci.com/node/21644) (http://www.popsci.com/node/21644))
-
Yes, characters can have their own star ships or transport if they want. but nothing like a star destroyer or something like that. At the moment my Character has an LAAT gunship for transport, although his personal vehicle is still being decided....i was thinking of a V-wing or an ARC-170
-
Do you mind if I join? If I can join, what sort of characters can I be?
-
I guess the group has a ship already? and each individual will have their own ship? Not sure how large the individual's ship is. Maybe a 1 seater, similar to how farscape did where it seemed each char had their own personal ship & the team ship will be huge?
I'm not sure of what personal ship transports I may choose from for my char. I may choose a ground vehicle similar to the one I saw in the popular science article & gave the link to above. Though logically if most of the team do not have the equivalent to a personal ground vehicle then his may not be used to often.
-
Yes, you can join Noname. anyone is welcome to join.
at the moment when the whole group is together they will all be abord an acclamitor assault ship (don't know how to spell acclamitor...). My character Axel will be one of the people in charge......unless someone makes a jedi character, oh did i mention you don't have to make a char from scratch? if not you can use characters from the star wars universe (eg, obi wan, anakin, padme, super battle droids, battle droids...ect)
-
Noname, what character/s did you have in mind for yourself?
-
Kor, do you have any minor details for your character yet???
-
I have some ideas for my char.
-
Okay, that is good. I got some info on nonames char, he is thinking about making a jedi character. i told him that if he did. Axel would be his personal trooper.......oh yeah you can have your own personal trooper too if you create a jedi!!!
-
I'm thinking about doing a Jedi. Not sure of the species yet, maybe something reptilian, lots of those.
Will this be a 1 shot rp, or will have have sequels?
-
if this one goes well, i will make sequels
-
In the same time period with the same characters, or jumping ahead time wise?
-
I'd like to create a Jedi. A man, (human of course) with a blue lightsaber, and a fast ship... he should be part of a team, or at least, there should be a couple of individuals in a group with him... maybe other Jedi...
-
In the rp i will make weeks and stuff
(It has been two weeks since the republic crash landed on Iego) (it has been 3 years since the clone wars ended)
stuff like that
-
I guess once the order 66 thing is done the jedi chars would either be killed during that, or at some point after, or would have to go into hiding.
-
Some clones actually defied the empire.........but they were later executed by the emperor..... Axel and his troops could help the jedi
-
and end up executed? Sounds like the greater good maybe in making them think they killed the jedi, believe they did. If they have to bring in bodies they could be made to believe they totally obliterated their bodies to insure they were not faking their death with some jedi power or were not able to use it to heal.
-
hmmmm.......okay
-
Sorry for sounding odd, but I do recall Kreia, I think her name is spelled, telling the char you play that you have to think of the full ramifications of all of your actions, and what may flow after that. In the Kotor 2 game.
-
I suppose your right there kor
-
I won't go into Kreia much for those how have not played Kotor 2. I finished it, but I'll not play it again since it has Securom :anger
In this case Kreia would say something like. "if you do use force persuasion to break them free of the order 66 mind control, you remain alive perhaps, even if only for a while. They may try to help you. But later on in hours, days, their other fellows or superior may well execute them or worst."
-
good point kor.......btw, who is your favorite kotor 2 character??? my fave is HK-47
-
I liked several a lot. Hk-47 was one of them. In kotor 1 he was a char I used a lot till the end. I think I used hk-47 often once I finally got him, and boa-dur or whatever hsi name was, the guy with the little floating sphere. Due to his high tech skill. It was handy in certain areas.
In 1 I most often used the wookie till I got Jolee. After that I used Jolee and Hk-47, except at the sith academy since they may have been able to sense jolee as a jedi so I used the guy you start with on the first planet you go with as well as hk-47.
-
cool, Carth is alright
-
He is. I didn't use him long. I exchanged him for the hk47 I think.
-
So, have you come up with a basic idea for your char yet???
-
I do. not sure if it's to powerful or bad.
-
tell me the idea, i doubt it is too powerful
-
I think I"ll pm the vague notes I've done so far.
It's a big vague. Do you want a list of the exact force techniques the person knows, or do you not require an exact list?
-
i do not require a list of force powers, but i would like to know some of the species you were thinking about using
-
Talortai was 1 species, though maybe not a good idea since they are naturally force sensitive. Maybe you'd prefer another species. I have the reptilian species bookmarked.
-
you can be that species if you want
-
Guess I should do some background info, and pick out who the char's main teacher and master was. & how they came to study to be a jedi. Maybe the flashes thing I mentioned, how to control that.
& the character's gender also.
-
That is a good start Kor, the info will help other people that join this rp to understand who your char is and their personality
-
A bit vague, but I did do a rough sketch of the char, pre 1st draft: http://z8.invisionfree.com/Turs_Cave/index...=207&st=0&#last (http://z8.invisionfree.com/Turs_Cave/index.php?showtopic=207&st=0&#last)
-
Okay, thanks for the info. Very descriptive if i might add.
-
It is? I thought it was pretty vague myself.
-
Btw, i might move this rp to my RPG (http://z3.invisionfree.com/RPGs_Unleashed/) site
-
Why is that? I doubt they'd care if it were done here. They being the admin.
-
I'm moving it that way my friends at school can join in.........they don't know that i even visit this forum......
-
i've decided against moving the rp now, i've decided to continue it on GOF
-
"Good. Or if your friends want to be in it they can come here, or you can run a star wars rp for them also if you could handle 2 rp's.
-
yay! my rp has finally started!!!
-
Ok, goodluck.
-
the rp is going very well so far
-
It does seem so. I hope it continues to do well.
-
me too, i have also started this on another forum as well, (http://forum.clonecommandos.net (http://forum.clonecommandos.net)) i had it put here as well, they will both be different rp's although i can keep up
-
Good luck on keeping it up and running on both.
-
i will,

Commander Cody-
Captain Rex-
Anakin Sky-walker-
Obi Wan Kenobi-
Ashoka tano-
Commander bligh-
Luminara-
Kit fisto-
General grevious-
Count Dooku/ Lord Tyrannus-

-
Quite a group of fc's for characters to select from.
-
yes indeed,
Btw, in the rp a big big battle is about to happen......i hope your char is ready...
-
I'll do my best. I'm as ready as I can be I guess.
A bit fight on the ground, or in the air? WHich is best for my char to go in for the upcoming fight? Stay where he is or go into space or the air?
-
since your char is a jedi, he could use his star fighter to take out the vulture droids with Axel
-
Ok, so best to have him go into space, then the attack will start?
-
May I join as well...I've even thought of a character!
Name: Drah-Cil
Rank or Status: Jedi Knight.
Personality: Laid back and sedate, but willing to fight when the need arises.
Weapons: Blue, single bladed curved lightsaber (Lightsaber form IV)
Vehicle: None
History: Drah-Cil, who happens to be a Selkath from the water world of Mannan. Having been trained by his grandfather in all manners of the Force and lightsaber combat.
However this particular lightsaber was made from a Firaxan shark's tooth found in the deep oceans of his home world.
His prefered form is Form II: Makashi
It is said that Drah-Cil carries at least three of these same type of lightsabers with him at all times...however it has yet to be proven as he hasn't lost the saber yet. Drah-Cil's Saber (http://SuperSonicBoom182.deviantart.com/art/A-Jedi-s-weapon-104689434)
And can I play as General Grievous?
-
nice character! and yes you can play a GG if you know what he would say and do in most scenarios
-
I'm still going to let people join this rp if they are interested.
-
Some may be. It is an interesting rp and we're not doing to badly I think with just us few, but a few more would certainly not be bad and may make things interesting.
-
I'll see if I can get some others interested in this RP. ;)
-
thanks guys!
