A long journey, open to anyone/everyone

[Vreem Took]

Okay, so some of you may know that I plan to take Vreem on a little journey after the current thread he is in has ended, I’m basically going to have him stay behind in order to stop any pursuers from getting on the ship with the rest of the Jedi. Now, this means that he’s going to be on the run on Korriban, but I don’t plan for this to be the only part of his journey, I want this to be the first stage. The last stage will be Nar Shaddaa/Coruscant (a brief ending thread on Coruscant but the last main stage being Nar Shaddaa). But I would be able to have him visit a couple of worlds between these two.

Now, I want to try and get a fair few other people involved, there will main be three groups throughout.

Vreem’s group:

I want Vreem to bump into and gather a few comrades on his travels, these are a few possible ones, a Dark Jedi who’s turning back to the Light Side, a lost Jedi, any fringe characters, lost/abandoned/captured Republic soldiers, any civilians in need of help and any force sensitive characters (don’t have to be within any age limit, could have previously received training and at Agri-Corps). As you can see, there are a lot of options for potential members here. It would be best to gain them as soon as possible but there could be some who join solely for one stage.

Pursuers’ group:

This doesn’t have to consist of those in the current thread with Vreem and the other Jedi, although it might make some sense if they are. This could easily involve any Dark Jedi who might be on Korriban as they might seek to kill Vreem after discovering his rank or maybe sensing his presence? But these guys will basically pop up towards the end of every stage and maybe have small fights with Vreem’s group, but nothing major until the final stage. Best if this group has/is headed by a couple of Dark Jedi but would also be good for them to be joined by any fringe/Sith Empire soldiers so that the non-force users can combat them.

Individual Stage groups:

These will involve characters only for each station, instead of all of them, both good guys and bad guys, the bad guys will often have a scenario set up which Vreem’s group has to difuse/confront.

So there, you see this could be very broad and it’s also a great way for our characters to get to know others, as well as a great roleplaying opportunity in general. The aim for Vreem’s group will be to acquire legitimate transport to Coruscant, thus I think Nar Shaddaa would be the final stop. I was thinking that possibly five stages would be best.

The first would be Korriban as that’s where Vreem currently is, I do think it might prove difficult trying to find other members for Vreem’s group, although the core members of the persuers’ group should probably be formed here.

For the second I thought it would be a good idea/make sense if the ship he boarded was only a short range one which led to a space station of some kind, not sure what kind of scenario could go on here.

The third/fourth are not really defined yet, possibly a Sith controlled world, possibly a world where there are Jedi Agri-Corp members being mistreated, might be interesting. But basically this is up and open to any ideas and/or suggestion.

The fifth would be Nar Shaddaa and most likely involve the poor, the gangs etc. There’s a lot of potential to work with here.

So yea, any potential members for any groups or even better, any ideas at all? As you can see, this is pretty open in terms of planning right now. Also, like I said earlier, if you want to get involved in this but don’t have a suitable character, I don’t mind waiting for you to make one.

[Bishop/Zak]

Count Zak up on Vreems group

[Jace]

It doesn't seem like I will be able to get Jace into the story, unless maybe he tracks you to nar shaada to make sure your ok since he feared you were dead. Otherwise I am in the process of making a republic trooper, which should be done by tomorrow. He may be able to join you if he is accepted on time.

[Vreem Took]

Hmm doubt he'd really e able to track him, perhaps a chance meeting on Nar Shaddaa, but in all honesty I think I would enjoy having your republic trooper get involved in some way. And if you can have him form some sort of squad then we could possibly include a couple more people as well in that area. See if there are any Sith military to counter your guys as well.

Also, any other Jedi or untrained Force User out there, don't be afraid to raise your hand. Or anyone else for that matter.

[Jace]

Well my republic commando is approved, I have an NPC squad with me right now, since the other special forces squad isn't accepting new members but I can definetly get involved now that I have my Commando.

[Toff]

Would you like a Ewok Companion?

Wirrip can Speak Basic, and Ewokese. His Skills are Hunting, and Storytelling. His NPC Nonna is a healer experienced with herbs and remedies. She is also a story teller.

[Vreem Took]

I actually think both of the above could work out. We just have to think about how to work all of these characters into it and how they will meet. Basically I've formed a better idea regarding the plot and although I would like to incorpirate more, so far I've just got a plot revolving around the Agri-Corp. Basically a Dark Jedi (maybe a few more than one?) is working in pine with the Sith Empire, either through desire or payment, and they have secretly taken over an Agri-Corp facility on a yet-to-be-decided planet, from which they are taking a number of the rejected Jedi to train them and form a group of force users for the Empire to utilize.

Now, I plan to have the Agri-Corp planet be the third place, as mentioned, and it will probably be best to get the good guys gathered before this, or on the world if we need to.

Here are my suggestings for the meetings. I'm not entirely sure on the specifics of the Ewoks, but it would probably be best for them to meet on Korriban in order for the later part of my plan to work.

Basically the ship that Vreem and the ewoks will slip onto will be a short range ship which will take them to a nearby space station controlled by the Empire. Upon landing Vreem will be taken into custody with the Ewoks hiding A New Hope style. It will be in the prisoner detention area that Vreem will meet with Zak (who had previously been at the Agri-Corps facility and was being held at the station temporarily) Jace's republic special forces officer (who may have been captured on a mission involving the Agri-Corps or another mission, currently being held for exraction of information). Also, this would be where any other potential members of the team could be held, a fringer who had been detained by the Sith Empire, any other Republic soldiers or ex-Jedi. The ewoks will be the ones to break the other characters out of their prisons (finds this an amusing way to go about it).

Now, Jace, another suggestion for your character might be for them to meet later as your team could be on a mission to the Agri-Corps facility (the destination after the space station) after the Republic believes that something isn't quite right, maybe a cut-off SOS or something? If you could get anyone else on the team that might be a little more interesting as well.

So, what do you guys think?

Also, any takers for a position on Vreem's team?

And we could really do with some PC opposition for these guys... anyone?

Dark Jedi, bounty hunters, pirates, Sith soldiers please anybody, stiking up rivalries between characters is what makes rps more interesting.

[Iota]

hmm.. i could send 2 of my acolytes after him hehe

[Toff]

I'm up for it. Ewok team rules lol.

Since Wirrip is very curious and brave, and likes to take things apart he might find a loose panel in the Prison Cell, and Find wires when he takes it off. Then he will cut some wires, door opens and he goes to save the rode in with. The guards will be dealt with from Wirrip's Poison Darts.

How does that sound?

What? Only two?


Does that mean that you're keeping Daren close to you?

[Meira]

Well this agri-corps idea is interesting. Kaim, Eclipse, and I have talked about an idea involving the agri-corps, though my talking about this idea has only been to Kaim, but I assume Eclipse knows about it as well?

Either way, Kaim and I were talking. The Continuing Education thread at the Jedi Temple sort of left Kaim hanging when Meira took Arichi as her padawan. Kaim has talked about his character going into the agri-corps after failing to acquire a master by 13.

The whole idea was that Meira and Arichi would run into a bitter Kaim when on a quick mission to do something where the agri-corps is. (that part wasn't exactly planned out yet).

Anywho, it could be possible to fit this idea into what you have, Vreem, so I was wondering what you think. Obviously I've got to talk to Eclipse and Kaim about it, but I think we could fit into the stage category. Maybe after the stage is complete, Meira and Arichi can continue with Vreem, or go their separate ways.

Whatcha think?

[10Tickler]

I'm right here, and I actually like this Turn of events, it'd work well

[Vreem Took]

I certainly think that could work out. However, they would then most likely have to stick with the group as the only reason Vreem isn't returning to Coruscant is because he doesn't have a ship to do so. This is also a problem I face, for the transportation between the first two places I can simply say that they're short range or that the nav computer doesn't have the co-ordinates for Coruscant only the planet on with the Agri-Corps will be. However, I have spoken to Gaius and it seems he is willing to have his group get involved in this. Which would mean that we would have fairly equal teams force user wise (four and five, assuming Kaim travels with them afterwards, although he could probably fall to either side depending which way he wants his Jedi to go).

But yes, that sounds like a good plan.

After that I still have the non force users to sort out as I don't want a purely Jedi/Dark Jedi theme for this plot, that was not my intention. So yes, any bounty hunters, pirates or Sith soldiers please speak up.

Also, any suggestions for the mission/plot between the Agri-Corps facility and Nar Shaddaa?

[Toff]

Run into Denasi, he's making a smuggling run and he has a ship.

What about Ewoks?

[Jace]

I think it would make more sense if my team or at least I was sent to investigate the situation at the Agri Corps and run into Vreem there in the process of his escape or something or the other. But this is sounding like it will be quite interesting.

[Iota]

Xavier's Dark Army will be the bad guys hehe

[10Tickler]

A master and three pawns is an Army now?

[Iota]

near enough.. each capable force user is equivelant for 100 odd soldiers and a master would be much more..so close enough

[10Tickler]

Except one is Decrepit and Frail, not to mention clumsy and Blind...

[Vreem Took]

Jace, try and get pc players to join the squad to make things more interesting, but if not we can use the npcs as meat shields.

But seriously, we only really need some fringe or Sith soldiers for the pursuing team now and we'll have all the basics we need for this.

So come on you greedy bounty hunters, mercs or anyone who wouldn't mind going after Vreem's group.
