The uses of Cho Wroth

[Foxfire]

Here is a question for all of those who have come to know Cho Wroth or who are yet to meet him;


Is Cho Wroth useless? Is his continuance in the verse even needed?

The 'Return of the Sith' Thread has opened many question as to his usefullness around the temple.

Your thoughts

[Othorious]

He could be useful, but as more of as a drone or tool to be used by the inner council. Perhaps he can be even more usefull than that, but who knows, I don't control him, I don't know what plans you may have for him.

Since you asked for thoughts...

A few things to keep in mind when playing Cho (or any character, really):

1) Not all characters will like your character. Not all characters should like your character. This is especially true for "evil" characters. The Sith Temple is not a nice place, and most Sith aren't going to be buddy-buddy with most other Sith. So when another character expresses a negative opinion about your character, don't take it personally. For example, Rugs and Kozeph get along fairly well (I think), but their characters Nieraan and Kajir don't. It's completely in character for them to not like each other.

2) When posting with a character, it's important to keep their actions somewhat reasonable. Sure, a powerful character is cool, but not when taken too far. If a character's sitting in a windowless room in the temple and lifting huge boulders miles away outside the temple that he can't even see, it's not going to come across as cool to most people. It comes across as kinda ridiculous and makes it harder for the character to be taken seriously. It's called Narm. Keep in mind the abilities of the Jedi and Sith in the movies, and use that as a rough guide as to what's possible.

So what's Cho's position in the Temple right now? He's not exactly trusted. He's considered a loose cannon. Where he goes from here is up to you. He can continue being the troublemaker of the Sith, sticking his nose where it doesn't belong and "fixing" things that aren't broken. If you want him to be something else, then he has to show his loyalty to the inner sanctum. For example, a tool of the inner sanctum needs to be someone the Darths can trust to carry out their orders efficiently and without question, so anyone in that position needs to display a certain amount of loyalty and respect. Maybe it's within Cho's character to do that. Or maybe it isn't. I'm not familiar enough with Cho's character to really say decisively. You can figure it out.

Speaking only from a Inner sanctum point of view, cho has caused a lot of trouble, granted my Darth wasnt exactly present, but im sure he'd receive word of it. Like sparrow said, you could continue to be the troublemaker of the sith or you could have him act differently now that hes back.( which there is nothing wrong with.... hell, if you didnt do it, who would? which brings to mind something very important, every character cool/uncool powerful/week only enhances the RP experience and gives that much more depth to our fictional universe.)

He is your character, and as such you rule over him. you ultimately will decide what happens and where he goes, I only suggest that you be wary of how you influence others. If Darth Eurachis suddenly decided to outlaw something or say it wasn't kosher in the temple, that would be impacting more then just my own character. Thus, my point being, decide your actions, but be careful with who you are impacting.

There are always scenarios and situations in which you could find Cho's usefulness. Understand as well, that having only 'just' returned it could be a week or two in game time before he is thought of for a mission. This does not quality him as useless.. perhaps getting to know some of the new recruits or training with members who currently lack respect for you could alleviate some of the tension and possibly find an 'in' for your character on missions soon to come.


Anyways, Rant over. Just don't reconcile yourself to being useless. You character will be and IS whatever you make him/her in to. Activity only begets more activity.

For example, Rugs and Kozeph get along fairly well (I think), but their characters Nieraan and Kajir don't. It's completely in character for them to not like each other.

I just want to come in and confirm this. Nieraan is a jerk. Nieraan is rude. I made him that way on purpose, because I noticed that at the time we have quite a few Sith that are either polite or into the whole 'I don't like you but I won't tell you' thing. So I made him to be someone that is blunt and tells people how he feels to their face. Nothing personal against you or Cho; he's been a jerk to everyone, from his apprentice all the way up to Eurachis and Iniquitous. I think in the whole of the Order, the only Sith he has anything resembling a friendly sort of respect for are sparrow's Zarene and Cain's Jack. Maybe Gabriella. The others he either doesn't like, tolerates, or has some small degree of respect for.

And sparrow was absolutely correct; I have no problem at all with Kozeph. Nieraan has several problems with Kajir. Just the way their characters are.

So yeah, don't take any of Nieraan's jabs personally. It's just the way he is.

Edit: On the note of what to do, just start working toward having Cho do things and prove he's worth something. Nieraan's gotten in trouble with Iniquitous. I don't think even Cho can say that, despite all the ruckus he's raised. But despite that, and despite the fact that he's mouthed off to Iniquitous and probably every Lord and member of the Inner Sanctum, Nieraan's proving he's worth something to the Sith. How? By going on missions as he's told, even if he doesn't like it. By taking on a student. I don't think any of the higher-ups are particularly fond of Nieraan, and he's not particularly fond of any of them, but I'm sure that he's showing his value.

The same is probably true for Cho. He's got a lot more to do to repair his image in the eyes of the Order, but if he proves that he's worth something, instead of causing more trouble, he can at least start to take steps to mend his image.

Thank you for your words. This has rejuvinated my muse and lifted my downed spirits.

Sorry if it this sounded like I was in a sorrowful mood. I was dealing with a bio-polar moment.

Than you again for the help and the renewed Ideas for directing Cho Wroth.

[Lemur, The Kool-Aid Guy]

Didn't know you were bipolar too.

Let me know if you ever need to talk to someone who understands. The switch from mania to depression is a huge pain if rapid cycling is in play. Otherwise its just a regular sized pain, but still worthy of any help I can provide.

[sparrow]

You know one thing I think you should do? Write a personality section for Cho's bio. I know your bio was written back in the day when they weren't required, but having one can really help in playing a character consistently and... for lack of a better term, in character.

[Foxfire]

Thank you again for your comforting words My Muse is back up and running.

AS for Cho this new focus of mine and his will make it very hard for ones of the Jedi in future posts for now Cho has no quams about death because of the Oath.

So as the Wookiepida shows A noghri Loyalty wheither it is to evil or good is a formitable thing only death will stop one from suceeding in a mission or when it comes to a kill weither they run back to the Jedi temple or not Cho will follow and Hell will rain down on all that get in the way.

So what ever mission goes on he will make it succeed either by his death or of the others Sith or Jedi.
