Padawan Field Assignment: Sign Up

[Loki Ahmrah]

If you roleplay a padawan and are interested in getting involved in a mystery-solving, crime-fighting assignment which will rely on making the most of your individual abilities and pooling such resources to work as a team, please state so here.

The sooner we sort out who's interested, the sooner we can begin.

[Liu Fong]

Any room in the group for a one-armed street rat?

[Jamel Croko'yn]

I'm up for it

[Kyle Krogen]

count me in

[Rognan Dar]

Me too....Mind giveing a little info about it?

[Sage Hazzard]

I'm in too, with my Syrius Cline character. He's a detective, so this crime solving mission would be his cup o' tea.

[Zeke]

If she gets back in time for it, I'd like for my padawan Lime to be a part of this. Her modem's out at the moment, but if she can get back before you guys get this set up, please count her in. But if she's not back by then, go ahead with it. No need to hold this up for you guys over one person.

[Sejah Haversh]

Well, wou'll need people of intelligence on this sort of missiom....quest....thing. Where are we going?

Count Sejah in.

[Lion El' Jonson]

I'd go, but I've got enough to handle with this Dinner thing...^_^;...

[Agden Ithrin]

Sign me up :)

[Janus Riddyl]

Sounds interesting. I'm in.

[Robot]

Robot wishes to let Padawan designate LOki Ahmrah know, Robot's processing power is at his disposal

[Lime]

I'm in! :)

[Jamel Croko'yn]

^-^

[Zeke]

Jamel, don't laugh, don't spam. You signed up, that's all until Loki comes out with some more info.

[Loki Ahmrah]

My appologies for not replying sooner. First of all, thanks for your enthusiasm, let us hope that our efforts will satisfy this encouraging positive attitude. Now moving swiftly on.

The idea came about due to a combination of factors; I realised as a padawan how bored I was once my current roleplays where all replied to and think that being the future Jedi Knights of the GJO, a bonding experience both IC and OOC wouldn't go amiss. The aim of this assignment would be to do just that whilst having fun and allowing our characters to gain skills and test their current ones, relying on teamwork to make up for individual weaknesses.

In order to do this we should try to formulate a plot which takes into account the variety of shared abilities our characters possess as a group. So this field assignment wont be a big fighting fest, it will be a more practical mission, for example, the investigation Obi-Wan conducts in order to find the person attempting to assassinate Padmé.

The ingredients I had in mind to make a rather tastey plotline were:

<LI> The Black Sun
<LI> The Coruscant City Watch
<LI> Nar Shaddaa
<LI> Drug smuggling

I have an idea for a plot but I'd like to hear your imput. Do you have any ideas for storylines or any thoughts? Best way to make this a mutually enjoyable experience is to co-operate and come to an agreement on what this roleplay should invole.

[Kelt Simoson]

My idea on the drug smuggerling idea and yes im in also :).:

Simian Kane a very notorious and very viscous drug smugger on coruscant has just recently been smuggerling arms as well as drugs into the city. He has a Mafia type of group that supports his actions, escorts the drugs and arms to there buyers and kill anyone that stands in there way of making a profit. However there last buyer was someone pretty high up the chain of command in another Mafia organization called the "Venom Cartantion" which used to buy the guns from Kane until this last transport came along, Kane wanted a higher price for the weapons and the Venom group did not like attitude or the cheek of Kane sparking gang warfare on the streets of Coruscant. Innocents are being sluaghted in the cross fire, shops, banks and houses on eatchother gangs "terf" are being blown up and destroyed. The city watch cant handle it and thus have asked the Jedi try and sort the two gangs rivalry out right away..the only problem being both groups detest the Jedi and would probably kill on spot.

Its a basic story line thought out right from me on the sport..what do you guys think?

[Jamel Croko'yn]

I think it's nice but their are a lot more diverisity in the ingredients.

Well to test all of our team work and leadership capabilities I have came up with an on the spot storyline for this..just like Kelt.

On the outer rim their is afacility that is being created which is building items wielding scientifical similitaries to the bodies of the Ysamilia(I forgot name: Force unsenstative animals) which are to be used to be smuggled and traded in thorought a criminal blackmarket during a pod racing game on Tatonie while most of the city is observing the game, one of the highest of crime lords (Yassir Tarmod) who works for one of the Hutts. Information smugglers who are sympathizers of the New Republic delivered this issue of information but after this they were killed so few others would be put on the job.

Heading to the Jedi since this is a Jedi orientated mission they ask the Padawans invesitage, as the information they know about the situation is less then the real thing which is most of the reason of the investigation as well as picking a Padawan is that it doesn't seem as that much of a dangerous situation.

Though it doesn't seem so, it is on Nar Shadaa one of the highly populated planets of criminals. Going their, they must stay in discrete and not be noticed around the facility when they enter which would require someone of older age (unlike my character) to invesitgate probably as an undercover laborer. Also have someone registrate as a Pod Racer, repersenting the planet in the race, and in such working for one of the Hutts to block the eyes. Whoever does this job would have to do alot of things as well as the pod racing, they'd have to do something to alert the crowd of this illegial trade, or have a sign that gives the rest of the PAdawan to alert or something.

After this issue of course they'd attack as they have been infiltrated and attempt to kill all the Jedi so that the warning wont expand thorought the Outer Rim so other large facilities of power wont come in. The Black Sun Company become interested before the incarcerated and killing sprouts through information smuggling and attempt to attack the facility on Nar Shadaa. Now the job would probably change and we'd have to stop this war throguh diplomatic or physical adjustment.

This is just a suggestion it could be lowered or just elaborate, or whatever you want to do.

See ya

no.

[Sejah Haversh]

As fun as big plans are, in a mystery, I belive only one of us should know the end, and I'm nominating Loki to be that one, because he will be Thread-Master in this one.

I don't know what the Black Sun is, so, if someone could breifly sum up what that is in their own words, it would be great. Sadly I also don't know what Nar Shadda is.

In regards to the Watch, perhaps we have a few corrupt policemen on the force, and they are working with, but not hand-in-hand with the drug smugglers. And, for an added kick, what if the drugs are being EXPORTED from Coruscant, instead of being delivered to the planet? That would open further opportunity for the plot nstead of confining us to one area.

We all have skills too, but, it isn't until we work as a team that we also get to hone our weaknesses. If you could, Loki, could you lay out a bit more of a structure, and perhaps we can sort of start at different times, seeing as we probably wouldn't all be in it from the get-go.

[Zeke]

Black Sun is like a drug cartel...they're into almost anything that's illegal. I too, have no clue what a Nar Shaddaa is...

[Jamel Croko'yn]

Nar Shadaa is a highly populated planet which is native of the Hutt Race. It has many criminals along it, and is very drug related. It's like a technoligically advanced Las Vegas with high buildings and many bars.

EDIT: I got one question though, why is that they'd choose a Padawan in an investigation with the magnititude such as this, why not two or three Knights?

[Anbira Hicchoru]

Black Sun, to everyone's knowledge, ceased to exist after Xizor's death. There are a few surviving Vigos, who have covered a lot of tracks, and bought out and expanded a legitimate shipping conglomerate - the Sector Rangers. Legit, but possibly a cover for things that are still continuing.

And Sanis was born on Nar Shadaa :)

[Sejah Haversh]

No Knights. Trust me, Loki has a good idea. But, let's let him voice his newest thougts next before we get too carried away i our own suggestions.

[Syrius Cline]

I'm waiting for Loki's idea. He can do better than me. :)

[Kyle Krogen]

.........well im ot very good at making plans so ill let you guys handle it and i like Kelts idea

[Janus Riddyl]

considering black sun is gone I'm sure there are enough hutts running spice operations. Plus the hutts connect with Nar Shadda very well. Illegal weapons trade might work out nicely instead of drugs.

[Anbira Hicchoru]

Its already planned out guys. Just relax.

[Loki Ahmrah]

And once it is in full swing, you'll see your suggestions coming to life. Elements of each persons suggestions have been integrated into the plot, thank you very much for the input. :)

[imported_Terran Starek]

I would love to be in--but we seem to have plenty of participatory options at the moment. I

If another is needed, count me in Loki. I'm always up for a thread where character/intelligence drives the story more than lightsbers. :)

[Sejah Haversh]

Oooh! Oooh! Can Sejah get to drive a car sometime in it? PReferrably a stick-shift? Please? I promise he'll be even more dangerous than he is on his bicycle, giving everyone on the car the scare of a lifetime.

Heh, sorry couldn't resist the thought of Sejah in a Krarr "Flagline 492".

[Kyle Krogen]

:lol

If this does not come to pass, there will be smack down. :lol I love the mental image of this...

[Sejah Haversh]

And it would be even cooler if I can have a drawing of this car done on time. Krarr is one of the bigger auto manufacturers on Nehantish, and the Flagline is a supreme muscle car, escpecially with a turbocharged 492 cubic inch V-10. I think it puts out about 690 horsepower and is all wheel drive on Craegar Mag wheels.

And, yes, it is Sejah's new car.

[Kyle Krogen]

:lol :lol

[Syrius Cline]

I'm looking forward to this. :)

Do you have a timeframe yet of when it'll be up Loki? :)

[Jamel Croko'yn]

When is this going to happen?

[Loki Ahmrah]

Sorry about the lack of updates. It is just a case of establishing the plotline - which is a roleplay which wont involve us - then as the story progresses the padawans will become integrated into the story.

The two roleplayers involved in the first thread have particularly limited online/posting time which is convenient for me as I am going through somewhat of a rough patch at the moment myself. So there is really nothing left to discuss until it's underway, by which time you will be notified I promise.

[Jamel Croko'yn]

Thank you Loki

[Straffe Stormrider]

Can I be part of this thingy...Maybe Straffe could save you all when your in deep doodoo :D

[Loki Ahmrah]

The idea of this is that the padawans will work as a team in order to negate individual flaws. Having one-man-shows and other such related heroics would render any aforementioned goals null and void. That aside, of course you can be a part of it, this is not exclusive, if you're a padawan you're invited and most welcome.

[Straffe Stormrider]

I was just buggin you...Straffe loves to back up a fellow friend in need :)

[Sanis Prent]

That, and the "bad guy" in this could blow you away like a leaf in a breeze :)

[Straffe Stormrider]

Where theres a will...Theres a way :)

[Sejah Haversh]

Straffe, here it's a "no way."

[Drake Lonerunner]

is it 2 late to sign up?? i would ike to be apart of this thing also

[Jubei SaDherat Vader]

Go right ahead

[Kelt Simoson]

The drugs leaders accout is ready and waiting, Simian Kane is active :)

[Straffe Stormrider]

So when do we start this thing?

[Jamel Croko'yn]

It's already been said, I'm not completely certian but I believe Loki said something about we'd be alerted and the whole situation after the beginning role playing was done.

Also Loki, does this have to do anything with Loki the character's kidnapping, and how will he patricipate if it doesn't?

[Straffe Stormrider]

Ok...Coolige :D

[Loki Ahmrah]

ANd to answer your question, Jamel; no, this has nothing to do with Loki's kidnapping and if you want to take into account timeline, I'd say it happens after Loki is returned to the GJO.

[Sejah Haversh]

Hmm, in that case, I'll need to talk to you via IM sometime before this gets started, Loki.

[Sage Hazzard]

I know who the bad guy is... nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah. Serious though, I figured it out. Not telling anybody though, as it'll be awesome if I'm right.

I can't wait for this Loki. Sounds like a blast. Thanks for revving up the spirit in all us Padawans. :)

[imported_Terran Starek]

We needed a good Padawan Unity thread! It's gonna be great!! :D

I was wondering (forms evil grin, especially in Sejah's direction, and rubs hands together menacingly), don't you think it would be cool if all of the Padawan's got a set of special rings that had magic Force powers. And when they put their rings together and said the key words (i.e. Wind, Water, Heart) then they would be able to summon a magnificent, powerful Force...Captain?? Eh?? Eh?? :D

For more details... (http://216.73.105.30/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=26504)

:lol

[Straffe Stormrider]

You watch "Captin Planet" to much :lol

[Sejah Haversh]

*Picks up Nunchakau of good taste and BEATS THE LIVING SHIZNIT OUT OF TERRAN for even bringing that up again.*

*wheels them back around to under his arm, then passes them back to their owner.*

Thanks for letting me borrow those, Michaelangelo.

[imported_Terran Starek]

:lol

Splinter taught them to be ninja teens (He's a radical rat!)

Leonardo leads, Donatello does machines (That's a fact, Jack!)

Raphael is cool, but rude(Gimme a break!)

Michealangelo is a party dude! (PARTY!)

(Ok, enough spam from my end--sorry Loki!)

:D

[Drake Lonerunner]

so when do we start??

[Jubei SaDherat Vader]

As stated before, Loki will let you know.

Read. Comprehend. Post. :)

[Loki Ahmrah]

"Keep reading, that's the key! Read!"

/Gimli

you worry me. a lot.

[Loki Ahmrah]

With the ultimate twist being that they were all of them deceived. In the land of Myrkr, in the forests of Munto Kudro, the Jedi Padawan Loki forged in secret one master ring and into it he poured his wisdom, knowledge and will to read all books. One ring to rule them all.

What do you think? I think I'm onto a winner here, baby. :D

[Zeke]

You're both intolerably lame.

[Jamel Croko'yn]

Heh, a thread being jacked by it's own creator, and his little friend Terran.

:D

with loki's level of wisdom, it'll be a pretty small ring.

* rimshot *

:D

[Sage Hazzard]

Captain Planet rules.

[Jamel Croko'yn]

Could someone put this train back on course...I hope the Padawan story gets stating so they wont keep talking about Captian Planet and other popular series.

[Sage Hazzard]

Party Pooper!!! :lol

Well we're waiting for Loki to give us the word, so until then there really isn't a train to keep on track. The discussion is over I think, sort of.

[imported_Terran Starek]

HIS LITTLE FRIEND?!?!?

:verymad (eyeing Jamel)

[Drake Lonerunner]

we surrender "France" :D

[Lion El' Jonson]

CAPTAIN PLANET...HE'S OUR HERO!!! HE'LL TAKE POLLUTION DOWN TO ZERO!!!!

*Is beaten by homophobics*

[Drake Lonerunner]

I find that captain planet is to be the 1 of the most weakest super hero's there ever was. He touches pollution and he get hurt , but when he gets a punch everything is fine. Makes no sence.

now the hulk, that guy is invisible.

[Sanis Prent]

I can see him just fine. Maybe you need glasses.

[Drake Lonerunner]

oops that was a typo i ment invinsible.

[Loki Ahmrah]

The Hulk is gay.

[Sejah Haversh]

I think the main reason the Hulk is so angry is that when he doubles in size, his underwear doesn't. That would make me angry. And sore....

[Jamel Croko'yn]

I think he doesn't like green..thats why

What's invinsible, is that the typo version of invisible. Or are you going for unbeatable, which is much easier to spell then invincible.

*Throws poo at Drake Lone runner*

[Drake Lonerunner]

Drake catches it and puts it in his pocket

thanx man ill treasure it always:p

Its "than" you idiot! Stupid spelling monkey...

[Drake Lonerunner]

identity crisis over here

[Janus Riddyl]

Hey, is this thing ever going to get going?

[Straffe Stormrider]

I was just about to ask

[Sejah Haversh]

Wait for it.... waaaaait for it......

[Sage Hazzard]

Patience young Padawans. :lol

Hey, the longer it takes to get set-up, the better it'll be, right? Such a neato RP would be ruined with slouchy planning.

[James Prent]

Oh that's right, we're "planning" it....

*runs off to find Loki*

[Sejah Haversh]

Oh, crap! I still need to build (draw) Sejah's new car!

*steps on the gas^ and peels out before taking off*

^The use of the word 'gas' is a slang term meaning the accelorator pedal in an automobile. Gas is a short version of 'gasoline', known as petrol to some of you Brits...

:p Heh, sorry, couldn't resist, Loki.

[Sejah Haversh]

Gah, darn double posting...

[Aaron Belargic]

Any chance of adding Aaron into this?

[Lion El' Jonson]

AH! HE LOOKS LIKE DASQUIAN!

:lol

[Dasquian Belargic]

Twins normally do look alike, yes :)

[Kelt Simoson]

*cringes*....

[Sage Hazzard]

::A man in a suit hands Dasq a legal paper::

You are being sued for the unlawful use of twins, copywrited in 2001. Cease and desist or face the consequences. Have a nice day.

:lol j/k j/k!!! Twins, eh? Boy if I was still RPing with Vice, there could be some funny mix-ups or something. :lol

[Dasquian Belargic]

It was the result of both myself and Jeseth wanting to use Legolas as our signature characters :mneh

[Sage Hazzard]

Wel I've still got triplets. Though one of the three are dead... so I guess it's not as cool. :lol

[Dasquian Belargic]

Triplets? :lol I didn't know that Sage was a triplet :uhoh

[Sage Hazzard]

Sage, Vice, Fire. Fire is of course deceased. I play both Vice and Sage but currently Vice is on the back burner. Soon though, I hope to ignite a thread with him, Sage, and two other people who I won't disclose. Let's just say I'm going to have a little talk with Yogy when he gets back to RPing more... about a very special RP that could be the best one yet with Sage. ;)
