Character Name: Roq Nd'ath'terrain'akai (Click for Bio!)
Character Faction: Jedi
Number Of People Wanted: At least one other Jedi, at least one NPC, and perhaps some mercenaries, or active crime tycoons... whatever fits.
Reason For Roleplay: I need to get Roq's feet wet! And, of course, mostly to have fun.
Other:
IMPORTANT: This is a Blast From the Past thread, taking place four years ago. As for the Jedi, it would be considered a normal mission, and for others, just make sure there aren't any conflicts, etc. Also, meetings/friendships made here, might have impact on the future. And that's always fun.
SO HERE'S THE INFO.
The planet of Namore, (Canonical, but a stub) has long been ruled by strong families, and a weak government. The leaders of these families -- which are really more like provinces in their own right -- hold all the real power, but the government is able to keep general order.
However, it is now feeling the sting of having no real weight in things. One particular family, the Vis Vires, is causing a particular bit of trouble. They own vast tracks of farming land, and keep every bit of it under the most watchful, guarded eye. This was no problem, as due to the Vis Vires' reputation for being less than friendly, nobody really wanted to associate with them. However, recently, strange things have been happening to the lands downstream. Hundreds of fish wash up ashore, killed by the water of their river home. Phosphorescent algae has polluted some farming plots, choking out the crop, and glowing at night. And, most disturbingly of all, this spring's newborn animals are showing frightening mutations... third eyes, missing or extra limbs, internal organs on the outside of the body, strange diseases... it isn't pretty.
All this has been tracked back to run-off from the Vis Vires property, but the local law enforcement doesn't have the power to do a thing, and any individuals who have gone to confront the Vis Vires themselves... vanished.
Anger is stirring among the families, other, powerful families. The Vis Vires' pollution is threatening their livelyhood, and they aren't happy. Namore might even rest on the edge of civil war.
In a desperate plea to preserve the health of their planet, and prevent all-out anarchy, the government has called upon the Jedi, seeking aid.
And that is where our story begins.

I'm looking for at least one other Jedi, and the circumstance of their acceptance of the mission, etc, could be amusing, seeing as Roq can be a persuasive talker. So, even if a Jedi might not have been initially excited, Roq might have been able to talk them into it.
Also, I'm thinking the Vis Vires would have hired at least one mercenary to help defend their property, and would hire moreso once they hear rumors of Jedi coming.
Lastly, if anyone's interested, I'd love someone to NPC some guards for the Vis Vires, or even Lord Vis Vires himself.
Any takers? ;D
