Hi...
Found this place through a random google search and it looks really cool.
I got interested in forum-based RP a bit less than a year ago, although all I've been involved with so far were some pretty small-scale single-thread based ones involving about five people total, and right now I'm still trying to wrap by mind around the scale of this whole place.
But this looks like a nice, organized place and I was wondering if I could join in the fun. I'm not a terribly good writer but I would like to improve, and I see this place as a vehicle to do that, as well as to have some fun on the way.
Looking forward to meeting some of you, and any advice for me on character creation, RP stuff, or writing in general would be greatly appreciated!
- Sparrow

Thanks. I'll probably spend some time browsing around the site, trying to get a better sense of how it all works while I brainstorm a first character bio. Any suggestions?

Actually, the Dark Jedi section is interesting me the most right now...
Anyways, had a few quick questions on character creation.
Is Dark Jedi specifically Sith around here, or is it more of an umbrella term for Force users who walked down the wrong path, whether Sith-affiliated or not?
The failed-padawan turned dark jedi angle has probably been hit quite a bit, but is there room for another, or would you say that path's been taken one too many times?
Are there any rules concerning cyborgs/mechanical limbs?
Thanks!

A path can be walked a thousand times, so long as it's walked by a thousand people only once then every time it will be new.
Hello there and welcome to SWU!
And yes, by Dark Jedi we mean those who are not in the Sith Order, which is most right now as this arc is about the Sith Order returning to the galaxy. And what I was trying to say is that, putting your own spin on it will make the 'failed-padawan turned dark jedi angle' something new and unique.
I look forward to seeing you around the board and wish you good luck with the character profile.

well..funnily enough..i am the GM for dark jedi applications Dark jedi is just a generalisition for dark side force users, whether it be trained pure in the dark ways or falling to the dark side when said character was a jedi. choose any angle you wish unfortunatley, no sith..they have been away from the galaxy since the end of kotor 2 and are shortley coming back soon. you can ally yourself with the sith when the sith lords return though. mechanical limbs? no issues with me..just don't go over board

Howdy and welcome!
I'm pretty new to this sort of format, as well, so you're not alone! : )

My character has a cybernetic leg and no one said anything so....ya.
Other events that are happening now:
Major Borgonia hostage situation which involves a bunch of Dark Jedi, a few Jedi and a republic special forces team.
Black Moon Pirate Organanization is- well...organizing.
Squee and Zarkan are still glomping, so keep your distance.
I'm ۩Arheim۩ by the way (the shieldy things mean nothing). I'm no mod or even that learned on the subject of forum rp but my one advantage is that I'm obsessive and will therefore by almost always available to be assualted with questions both on topic and incoherent.
Welcome to SWURP!!

Thanks for the welcome!
Got my first character bio draft for Dark Jedi written and posted yesterday. Could any of you give me some feedback before the GM starts to tear it apart?
