Oh, sorry for not making that clear.
What Daelon meant was, he would take the speeder, but if Raine wanted him to, he would not go on ahead, but instead maintain the same speed as the barge. Because we all know that speeder bikes are faster than big fat ol' barges.

Okay...if the Tie fighters aren't supposed to be a part of the attack, I can edit that Pooh, from Mogo's post I mean.
Here's one of the two Sith I intend to use...posting for your approval. The other will come into play...well, when necessary.

Darth Vaine
Sith Apprentice
Gender: Male
Race: Human
Height: 5'11"
Weight: 185 lbs.

Bio: Still learning, and smart enough to know the difference between his current state and the strength that lay ahead of him, Vaine is a loyal servant to his Sith lord, Darth Figgas. The fact that niether the master or the apprentice are known works in thier favor, as the two carry a dark secret.
Vaine is excellent in the art of the lightsaber, choosing to use a single-bladed red saber, and is often silent and calm in appearance until the thrill of battle hits him.

If the name's too close to Darth Kane's let me know. Also, if I should add more detail and whatnot. Waiting for approval on this one.

Also, I wanted to add a few NPC characters of significance, similar to Beegas but with more importance. Is that alright, or should I let that go?

 

[Orlanth]

Look's good to me , QC. I say go ahead and do what you like.

We need char's who aren't Jedi or Sith as well.

FYI: Jedi Killer is a nickname given to a device worn on a soldier set to trigger when he dies. The device would only be effective against close combat, like Jedis use. Obviously, they would only be used in situations where a Jedi might feel the need to come in close to deal with it, and not very often in large groups of soldiers for obvious reasons (the blast would kill more soldiers than jedi, although I suppose the Sith would consider it a fair trade). It's a way to make the Jedi be a little more careful when charging into a situation (a la Tynan).

Just a little twist...

 

[Arc da Rat]

I just thought you where using Kerra's dream vision of the planet burning ... heh heh ...

 

[Arc da Rat]

Please pardon me if I am being silly ... HEH ...

I just took some medication for my aching mussles ...

 

[Orlanth]

No worries, Arc.

Any one have anything to say about my guys?

 

[Orlanth]

Where is the Rebels being attacked by the Imperials?

I need to know the planet for my next post.

 

[Arc da Rat]

Orlanth ~

The planet / system is Mached V ...

 

[Orlanth]

Thanks.

D'rack is a Jedi Master, who has a place in the Jedi Conciel in the Rebelion. He went on a mission to fi nd out something.

He is a Master of both Light, and Dark side of the force. But he is Jedi, and wants to keep peace as the other Jedi want.

He is on the way back to the Rebelon with 4 Star Destroyers. He wont make it in tim eto help, but he will get there after the fight is done.

Just to sam my guys up. Now, any one disagree with what I'm doing? I can change it if I have too.

Poohive, my char's wont interfear with your attack on the Rebelion.

As powerful as D'rack sound, he can still die. At this point, I don't have any intentions to make D'rack some powerful leader. He will have his times...

I was under the impression that it was impossible to skirt both Light and Dark side powers. In the Star Wars universe, the only ones who claimed to use both were by definition Sith. Dark side energies are violent, and consume the user, which is why Palpatine appeared to be so wasted away in Return of the Jedi.

If that's not true, than I have some rethinking to do with my character, Tynan. His beliefs that he could use both sides are one of the things that drove him from the Jedi Order. I had assumed that he was wrong in this, and used it as a way to show the flaws in the character. The boy was supposed to be the reason for him abandoning the Dark Side completely, and bounty hunting as a result.

What does everyone else think about this? Comments please.

The following quote says it better than I...

"Once you start down the Dark Path, forever will it dominate your destiny. Consume you it will, as it did Obi-Wan's apprentice."
-Yoda, Empire Strikes Back.

 

[poohlive]

So long as you aren't interferring, I'm fine.

Well, from what I've seen (and this is just the movies talking, I don't trust the books much, because Lucas disregards them anyway) just about every Sith was at one time, a jedi.

That is why the Jedi are always talking about being turned to the dark side. This is why they know most of the Jedi tricks and secrets, and how they can easily overcome them.

Why do you think the Jedi don't know who Palpatine is? Yoda, Mace, Qui Gonn, and the rest. If a Sith was less than two miles away, don't you think they'd sense him?

No, cause one of the Sith's greatest strengths is how to hide themselves and their powers. In Episode two, it took Mace and Yoda, two of the strongest jedi, to realize who Dooku really was. When Obi Wan had that conversation with him, he didn't know. He sensed something wasn't right, and didn't trust him, but he didn't know.

The jedi don't know the trick of hiding their powers, because they have no reason too. Hiding something is a sign of treachury, of weakness, and embracing the force means you are beyond those things. The dark side of the force, however, is filled with that.

One of the reasons why I invanted that little crystal device.

I believe, and this is just me spouting here, but Lucas wanted the powers of light and dark to be like the Ying and the yang. They are equal in power, but they have their different strengths. The light side is peace and calm and rational thought, while the dark side is strength, power, and corruption.

So, when a Jedi and a Sith fight, it all comes down to who has more control over their side of the force. In Episode 1, after Qui Gonn died, Obi Wan simply ran after Maul and began fighting. With this method, he lost easily, and was almost sucked down that huge trach compactor chute, or whatever... but, after he calmed down for a moment, composed himself, he defeated Maul.

The force is kind of like Karate. the Jedi train to use it for two reasons, defense against the Sith, and to protect the innocent of the universe. The Sith use it for two reasons as well, to destroy the Jedi, and to rule the universe.
At least, that's what I've come up with.


Besides, the only real difference between Sith and Jedi powers I've seen is that lightening stuff that the Sith use.

In Attack of the Clones, Yoda used lightning when he was fighting Dooku.

Darth Vader had both, he did turn back to the Light side as he died.

 

[Orlanth]

I am thinking about my guys.

I don't want to make this big powerful good guy... I want to make him lose something so he doesn't like either Jedi or Sith. But have him as a Jedi master which left the Conceil and Rebelion...

He mastered the dark side powers because he did give in to the dark side once. He is a good guy, just use dark powers to do good.

Any one have any ideas of how to get D'rack to dislike the Jedi?.... Note, I said dislike, not hate.

 

[Abraxas Winterlight]

he could be Jensaarai. they folow both the light side & the dark
( if you don't know what that is follow this link:

(hope the link works)

 

[Arc da Rat]

Hmm ...

I only saw a boot-leg DVD of Ep2 at a club so I don't know what was said.

By going by what I saw ... Yoda use Dooku's powers that were throw at him against him (Dooku)

 

[Abraxas Winterlight]

actually he deflected the Force Lightning that was thrown at him, he didn't use it himself.

Force Lightning can be called by any trained force user, but it is a attack, therefore it uses the Dark Side.

Thats what I meant damn it ...

 

[Quiet_Cool]

Perhaps D'rack sees the trend of Jedi turning Sith, realizing when he encounters a few more Sith, whether he kills them or not, that Jedi are turning too quickly, that they are not strong in discipline as they sould be and that they are being too easily swayed to the dark side, perhaps at fault is thier training, too rushed, or not enough discpiline in their masters. It might stand to reason, as the Jedi are merely rising again, not in their prime. Luke being the only link from Return of the Jedi to this episode, and him being dead...
Just a thought. I noted a trend in the thread (one which will continue with the Sith I'm about to introduce) that might explain D-rack's mistrust. The only problem is, we'll need more Jedi Masters (as it seems D'rack and Kelson are the only two right now) in order to make use of a council...
I'll take Orlanth's comment about needing more non-sith/jedi char's as a go-ahead on the NPC's...if this is a mistake, let me know...
I'll hold off posting any of them until tomorrow or later to give you guys time to reply.

I entered Darth vaine in the last post on Bespin. Also, let me know if I missed where we set a number for the attacking troopers. I made on up, but it might not be accurate with what's been said already.

In Attack of the Clones, Yoda used lightning when he was fighting Dooku.

Darth Vader had both, he did turn back to the Light side as he died.

The key is that Vader was Sith, and evil, when he used Dark Side powers. The Force isn't an "either/or" energy source. They are two halves of the whole. Any Force-user can use both Light and Dark, BUT by using Dark, you are consumed by it. There's no dabbling your toes in it, just because you need a little extra oomph in your attack. The Dark Side is like an addictive drug. In the beginning your fine, but after awhile, you're an addict. At least that's what I remember Lucas saying.

This, however, is our world on Literotica. If we want to change some rules, we can (unless one of you is Geroge Lucas in disguise. And if you are, WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING HERE! GO MAKE EPISODE III, DAMMIT!!!) change some of the rules. I just need to know so I can change my character accordingly. His Light Side/Dark Side battle was supposed to be pivotal, and unwinnable, for him. He was supposed to have to make a choice one way or the other, based on the rules in the Star Wars universe (excepting Abraxas' character, who is admittadly Sith and can use Dark Side just fine, lol.) Now, we can change those rules, and I have absolutely no problem with that. Just everyone let me know what they think.

Thanks, P.
