Skirmish in the Makem System

[sparrow]

Prologue

In the wake of Rhen Var and Yaga Minor, tensions are reaching a critical point in the outer rim and both the Republic and Sith Empire are preparing their forces for the next conflict. As they do, planetary governments along the battle lines have begun to reassess their standings. Some planets hold strong to their Republic ties, but others are weighing their options with the Sith Empire.

Aware of these wavering allegiances, many Republic senators have sent envoys to key outer rim planets to reaffirm their relationship with the Republic. Jedi Councilman, Master Vreem Took and other members of the Blades of the Order have also lent their support in the effort to keep any systems from falling to the Sith Empire. But they are not the only ones with their eyes on these systems.
The Sith Empire has been sending representatives of their own and their promises of better support and stronger influence are tempting to some governments that have felt neglected by the Republic. Makem Te, which sits at the end of the Perlemian Trade route, is one such jaded system. While playing host to Master Took and his companions on their diplomatic mission, the Congress of Caliphs has secretly made deals with Sith ambassadors.

Now, en route to Troiken for the second stop of their diplomatic mission, the Blades are unaware that the coordinates of their convoy have been sent by officials of Makem Te to a Sith fleet amassed nearby. Eager to bring down the leader of the Blades, an ambush has been set up, led by Lady Vesperia who is eager to prove her worth to the Inner Sanctum. If successful, this surprise attack could be a devastating blow, both to the Blades, and the Republic’s hold on the outer rim.

------------------------------------------------------------------

Sign up with your character and their rank below for this skirmish. PLEASE NOTE: your character must be a knight level or higher and CANNOT be participating in the Siege of Bak'mral. These two events are taking place at the same time.

[Dutch]

Yeah, apparently there was lapse in communication. Levin Caelum will stand by Vreem Took here. Count me in for the Ambush!

[Apillis]

Allvitende/Hervor is in, yo!

[Zarkan]

Well, Aser is a knight and last I checked still technically a blade so yeah, Jedi Knight Aserandan Miraturalis to guard....stuff?

[Meira]

Dutch and Zark, your characters have been added to the roster.

Apillis, I believe you've already signed up your character for the Siege battle. Cannot sign up for both. Let me know what you decide.

[Lemur, The Kool-Aid Guy]

I suppose I'll add Teer Ka to Jedi relief, so she has a little free time in between her career changes.

[Meira]

Added Lemur

[Grawn]

Lord Chaldus will be assisting Lady Vesperia in the destroying of Jedi mutts.

THE FUN HAS BEEN DOUBLED.

[Apillis]

Ah, word. In that case, put in Vaaz (Sith Knight).

[sparrow]

Hmm... looks like a good opportunity to get Elsie back in action. Sign her up.

[Mara]

If I can figure out what to do with her padawan during this, I'd love to put Xierra in. I'm assuming the reinforcements are Blades as well. (Otherwise, I'll go with the other mission).


Plus, I should hopefully be caught up enough with my other threads by the time this gets going to actually be of some use.

[Dire Wolf]

If you threw your jedi at the other thread that'd be osssim. >< so many jedi in this thread already, almost none in the other one.

[Mara]

I actually prefer this one. All things considered, it works the best for what she's been up to lately, training her padawan, and etc. She hasn't really been with the main Blades for awhile, and wouldn't have been 'planning with a general' and all that anyway. It'll be a lot easier for her to just be called in as a reinforcement for this mission than to be involved straightaway in a battle.

So yeah, I'm sticking with this one, for stated and unstated reasons.

[Jenno]

We could still really do with like three more Sith at this point, to go with the three we already have.

[Dutch]

Yeah! D< Dun be afraid of Vreem and Levin! Sure they're Gods of the Blades but still! It'll be a good romp!

[Meira]

Chaldus, Vaaz, Xierra and Elsie have been added.

ALL JEDI SLOTS HAVE BEEN FILLED.

But as it's been said, we are still in need of sith characters!!!

Discussion Thread is UP! Click.

[Otterling]

I'd like to add Di'Shan to the Sith side but he's listed as an Initiate at the moment. Not sure what is supposed to be done to get him to Knight status but I'm happy to lend him out to this if you guys are up for it.

[sparrow]

Seeing as we're now letting new characters start at knight and master level for Sith, you could probably just PM cain and update him.

Or... you could use this event as a trial of sorts where he proves his worth to the order and gets the promotion. Yay rp!

[Otterling]

I like the second option better. I'm ALL for RPing his growth as an ebil bad guy and it gives me all the more impetus for making my posts as good as I can. XD

[Adobi-Wan Kenobi]

Is there any room for my newb? He is a blade. linky
