Kuklos Ataxia F.A.Q.

[Lilaena De'Ville]

What does Kuklos Ataxia mean? It comes from the Greek for 'circle' (kuklos) and 'disorder' (ataxia). So loosely translated, it becomes "Circle of Disorder."

Are the RPing rules different here than at the main Swfans.net board? Not so much as you'd notice. Basically all the same rules apply here that apply in the main RPing forum. Please Read the <a href=faq.php?s=>FAQ</a>. for a good working knowledge of what will and will not fly with the other Roleplayers here. The only difference here is that if you make cookies you are required to supply the moderators with a large sample of aforementioned cookies. This rule is not negotiable.

What side of the Force is used at Kuklos Ataxia? The Force users here are all darksiders of one shape or another. Some call themselves Sith, others refer to themselves as Dark Jedi. It doesn't really matter what word you use, the meaning is the same. Darksiders. If you're a Jedi, I would tread very carefully, and don't reccomend vacationing on Onderon.

How do I join? Easy! PM an existing member, or a moderator, and see about setting up a thread to join. We will accept all willing canidates, and even some unwilling ones, if you ask nicely. You'll notice there isn't a "join here!" forum, so most of all recruitments will be done in the two forums we DO have, or in the main RPing forum on Swfans.net.

You don't have an OOC forum. Where can I ask a question? PM a moderator with your question, or post it in the main Swfans.net OOC forum which is specifically for Out Of Character discussions. Our two public forums are for In Character only. Members have access to a private IC/OOC forum where discussions and planning can take place.

Why is my post being ignored? Probably because you (a) did not RolePlay arriving on the planet, or (b) have such bad punctuation/spelling/grammar that we cannot read your post, and therefore you are being ignored. If you wish to RP with horrible writing and improper sentances, there are many other forums which you can use to entertain yourself in. If you wish to roleplay here on the Kuklos Ataxia board, please take a refresher course in English 101.

Is the Kuklos Ataxia afraid of anything? Nothing at all! We fear nothing! ...except squirrels, really old people, and clowns. Yeah, nothing but those.

What do I do if I get between Silus and the 'fridge? It's already too late for you. Your only hope is to pray that he's already eaten everything in and out of sight.

Where do I go if I have a complaint? In a hole somewhere if you say anything about it. *sharpens knife*

Why is your FAQ so short? Because I'm tired. Why are you asking so many darn questions?

Er... That's what I thought. Go away.

The Kuklos Ataxia have decided to bring to the Sw-Fans.Net RolePlaying Forums a group that totally fulfills what dark siders require as characters. To do so required some restructuring, which we are still in process of, as the current 'group' idea does not fit with what we see of dark siders in the Star Wars movies.

"Always two there are," says Master Yoda, "A Master, and an apprentice." In the group model being followed on the forums, this 'only two' theory falls vastly short and brings us dark sider groups that are 'happy and friendly' with each other, or groups that are full of distrust and shatter as soon as a conflict between characters arrives.

Before our restructure the Kuklos Ataxia was a group situated on a single planet, of learned masters and trainable apprentices. We were learning and working around each other, and going on missions together. Just like every other group. We are a very young group, and could already see that things were stagnating and could fracture down the road if actions were not taken.

In order to pre-empt a Black Handesque split, we are going to be implementing the following changes.
The Kuklos Ataxia will no longer be an IC group. It will strictly be an OOC relationship between Master/Apprentice (M/A) groups, and we will go our separate ways IC.
Our locked forum will become a strictly OOC forum for the M/A groups to come together and plot, or to just hang out. We can work together when needs arise, or we will stay separate.
+ for example: If LD decides that she and her apprentices are going to execute a raid on the GJO, I would go to the OOC forum on the Kuklos Ataxia board and recruit like-minded character to band with my character for the duration of the RP.
+ the only characters remaining on the planet Onderon will be Lilaena De'Ville and Silus Xilarian and their apprentices. Other characters may come and go, depending on their relationship with LD and Silus at the time.
+ the M/A groups might eventually become enemies IC, but OOC we will always be a group, and providing support and ideas to each other.
+ once an apprentice is trained and raised to 'knight,' they are free to split off from their Master and get their own apprentices. Or they can stay on with their Master, to receive further training and experience.
+ promotions to Knight will be handled by the Master who did the training.
+ promotions to Master will be handled by the OOC group of existing Masters in the KA, in a secret manner much like the GJO.
Members are not required to do any of their training on the Kuklos Ataxia forums, however it is encouraged.
+ there will be a new training forum added, in addition to the Iziz City and The Wilds forums, for the M/A groups to utilize if they are training off of the planet Onderon. This forum is not a specific place, but rather wherever the master wishes their training thread to take place, from Alderaan to Zeltros.

Things that will be remaining the same:
Kuklos Ataxia will still be accepting anyone and everyone who wishes to join and expresses an intent.
+ to join, simply PM an existing member. A recruitment thread will be started, usually with your future master.
+ new members can be of any rank, including Master. The group is OOC, so you don't have to need training, or even companionship IC. However, if you are above the rank of apprentice, you will be expected to train apprentices just like everyone else.
A lot of our training will still be done on the boards.
+ The Wilds is still very much open for the M/A groups to train in. Inside Iziz City... depends on their relationship with Silus and LD.

If you have any questions or comments, PM Lilaena De'Ville, Silus Xilarian or Gav Mortis.
