Would be very interested in putting a character together to join this motley crew. Have always enjoyed the smugglers/mercs of star wars stories.

Ember Star

Personally my favorite three characters in all six movies are in such order.
One: R2D2.
Two: Chewbaca.
Three: Han Solo.

I am by no means new to Star Wars RP's,

With those facts down. OMG I am so freaken interested in this RP, especially being a smuggler.

That is all.
"One thing you who had secure or happy childhoods should understand about those of us who did not, we who control our feelings, who avoid conflicts at all costs or seem to seek them, who are hypersensitive, self-critical, compulsive, workaholic, and above all survivors, we're not that way from perversity. And we cannot just relax and let it go. We've learned to cope in ways you never had to." ~Author, Piers Anthony

KaraKres

Got room for one more ass?



Thinking she would be equal parts close combat spec and seductress.  She is a former member of the Azalus crime org and is now on the run...gives the GM plenty of material to work with... >:)

TheDreadPirateRoberts

The YZ line also has a few nice ships that could also work well....

Metalzephyr

Oooh so much interest! I love it!

Also, definitely room for another ass, I was actually getting a little concerned it was a little too masculine of a crew!

About to work up the full descrip, now that we have settled on an area, time period, and probable list of ships (I'm liking the YT-2400, the other YT posted looks so weird with that central cockpit, and there's something just nostalgic and perfect about the YT series).

I will also post a character sheet, please post it here for approval!

Also, I didn't give everyone interested a fair shake at the Captaincy, so going to leave the slot empty for the moment (sorry summoner, but realized I wasn't being very fair). If you are interested in being Captain, please PM me! Ideally before submitting your character for approval though. I'll pick whoever has the coolest proposed Captain character, based on what I think is going to work best for the plot and player fun. Sound fair?

I'll repost most of this info at the first page as well.

RedEve

Do you have a CS template for us to use?

Sorry will be shortly on the first page!

Metalzephyr

There we are, hope that's enough info to get started?

Again, I really appreciated the incredible response everyone! Looking forward to the PM's and character sheets!

Sorry, I went back to the first page of this topic and edited it, so that new users could see the updated info.

Just go to page 1 of this topic!

RedEve

Name: Vialiah Dor   
Age: 26
Race: Zeltron
Appearance: See image to the right

Sexual Preference: As many amongst her race, Vialiah is sexually very liberated and has experiences with many races and both genders.

Crew Position: The crew’s resident hacker and infiltrator.

Weapon of Choice: A DH-17 blaster pistol.
Personality: Vialiah is your typical Zeltron. She is flirtatious, open, sociable and always looking for the next high or thrill. She is always up to pull a prank on one of her crewmates or to throw a party whenever there is even half an excuse to do so.

Bio: Vialiah Dor was born to a family of merchants on Zeltron. When her father’s business fell on hard times, she and her older siblings were forced to find other jobs to support themselves. Vialiah, who always had been a wizard when it came to computers and technology found herself a job on Nar Shaddaa, working as a hacker and tech for a Hutt called Dorvo. Dorvo had his paws in most illicit affairs, but his main source of income was information gathering and trading. As such, Vialiah was expected to break into some of the most secured terminals and systems in the galaxy. At times, this included infiltration into the organizations in question. She remained in Dorvo’s employ until she was captured while on mission. Her task had been to monitor Imperial fleet movements, but one of her coded transmissions had been intercepted and decrypted, leading to her arrest. Thankfully, she was able to escape her holding cell due to the cell door using an outdated and easily by-passed security lock. She bought passage off the planet on a smuggler’s vessel called “Mynok’s Wings”. With no intention to returning to Dorvo after her last failure, she opted instead to join the crew of the ship that had been her salvation.

Aybara

Name: Knox Frel

Age: 24 or close to he believes

Race: Nautolan http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Nautolan

Appearance: See picture. http://images.wikia.com/starwars/images/6/6b/Nautolan-TSS.jpg

Sexual Preference: Heterosexual, not much experience with non Nautolan women but a little.

Crew Position: Cook or General Techie, a jack of all trades in this department but it could be said he is a specialist for the group when it comes to ships such as Mon Calamari vessels and other aquatic ships when it comes to dealing with them due more to the fact that he can enter the unmodified environments with clunky suits. His large build makes him look impressive when the crew has to make a show of strength but he's not particularly adept in combat.

Weapon of Choice: Blaster pistol at range and weighty tools up close if needed.

Personality: Knox is good humoured having a thick hide emotionally to match his physical one. He's eager to please, possibly to the annoyance of some of the more private crew members but genuinely means well.

Bio: Knox's history for a Nautilon is unusual in it's begining having grown up not on their homeworld of Glee Anselm but on a transport ship trading and operating in Wild Space. Early in his life before he hit puberty the vessel he and his parents worked aboard was damaged by celestial phenomenon, his parents dead in this event and having only recently joined the crew the survivors didn't know where to send the little Nautolon so he was kept on the vessel but living conditions were not great for him. He spent time in dock having to help unload goods and take on new supplies which left him with a well built physique from the years of labor. While in the void he became the engineers assistant having to hand him tools and later perform repairs as well as working in the kitchen where he became a passable cook but only really any good at baking as he has a sweet tooth but rarely got to eat these at least with his superior sense of smell he could enjoy them that way.

When he got a little older decided to leave the ship and try to settle down with a lovely Rodian girl he had met but no sooner had the ship left dock from the space station than he found her and his meager savings gone. Broke Knox had to work as a dock worker for several months barely keeping his head above water financially speaking. Eventually he got a job on the groups vessel for competitively cheap rates due to his frustration at being stuck on the space station for so long.

Note for RedEve and Metalzypher: I was thinking it might be interesting since Nautolan's have "exceptional olfactory and pheromone-sensing skills" combined with Vialiah's pheromones it might be interesting if they have an enhanced effect on him in close proximity, giving her ample opportunity to tease him and use against him in practical jokes. Also leading to fun scenes if they are in an elevator or escape pod together as the Nautolon tries to behave. If the character is approved that is.

Question - what section would this go in? I'm provisionally interested, but it'd largely depend on where the game is going.

Also, would players have their own ships or one ship for the lot of us?

Aybara

From what I've gathered the general consensus seems to be one freighter but there has been suggestions of a larger ship or a few fighters

KaraKres

Name: Zarva Kaskis:
Age: 33
Species: Zabrak  http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Zabrak

Appearance: See image to the right. 

Sexual Preference: Having been raised on Nal Hutta as a sex slave, Zarva has seen and done just about everything that can be imagined and a few things that probably can't be.  She would have no more compunction about bedding a Gamorrean thug than she would a human holonet starlet.   

Crew Position: The crew's negotiator, and often-times fixer when it comes to organising the sale of illicit goods.

Weapon of Choice: Zarva's preference is for her perfectly balanced, matched-pair of vibro swords.  In a pinch will use her Deathhammer heavy blaster.

Personality: Her harsh upbringing, exploited childhood and crime-ridden young adult years mean that sarcasm and cynicism come easily to Zarva.  While she can show a softer side, experience has taught her that others will only use this to betray her and/or exploit her.  Her life is one of practical necessity and often cruel efficency.  To Zarva, the job is everything...nothing must stand in the way of collecting the credits and yet in stark contradiction to her instincts, she values loyalty above all else.

Bio: Zarva was born on Dantooine to parents who had known nothing but farming.  Her father turned to alcohol when his gambling debts meant that the farm was sold out from underthem.  The alcohol gave vent to her father's darker nature and Zarva endured many beatings along with her two sisters.  The three of them were eventually sold as slaves to a Hutt called Jarga who specialised in child prostitution.  After many years of abuse at the hands of 'clients' Zarva eventually escaped into the underworld of Nal Hutta and feel in with a gang of young thugs and crims.  After several years, Zarva emerged the leader of the gang only to have it absorbed into the Azalus chapter of the Kadijic crime family.  Zarva soon settled into her new reality but when she was ordered to transport a cargo-hold of slave children, Zarva broke with the group.  Stealing a small ship and using the credits from the slave 'sale' as seed money, Zarva is intent on staying one step ahead of her former masters as she seeks to stake a claim amongst the independent operators in the Outer Rim.

RedEve

Nice character Kara. :)

Will there be an overarching story-line to tie things all together or will we be making things up as we go along?

If this is set in the Rebellion era, we could say the crew is hired by the Rebel Alliance for a particularly risky mission?

summoner2183

Name: Darion Markav
Age: 29
Race: Devaronian (http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Devaronian)

Appearance: Darion is of a standard height for a Devaronian. He has brown tinted skin with and he always wears a leather jacket and pants. He is slightly muscular and as always he polishes his horns rather regularly.

Sexual Preference: Heterosexual

Crew Position: Engineer/Scout

Weapon of Choice: DH-17 Blaster Rifle, Vibroknife

Personality: Darion is a rather friendly for a Devaronian. He might look tough and scary, but to those who know him he is a rather jovial fellow and likes to laugh and joke around... but to anyone that crosses him will get no such treatment. He is very loyal to those he call his comrades, and those who tries to harm them will face a fully enraged Devaronian that will stop at nothing to see them avenged.

Bio: Darion was born in Devaron and he has always been a good hunter since his youth, and that got him into the scouting program quite early. He left the planet in his early youth and was contracted to several smaller freighters as the scout when they needed to seek out the lay of the land or find out what the dangers a planet will hold for those who goes on hunting trips. Along the way, he also got in contact with several mechanics as well as smugglers who taught him a little about their trade.

By now, his name and versatility was well known to the underworld as well as the Imperials, and he did a bit of jobs for them along the line. He preferred working for the Hutts though, even if the risks of dying was a bit great. He had just completed a job for one of the local Hutts and he was looking forward to the next job he was going to have.

Are we still going to be workingfor the Hutt cartel's on hutta or going mostly freelance?

Name: Wess Dana

Age: 28
Race: Human



Sexual Preference: Heterosexual

Crew Position: Enforcer

Weapon of Choice: Hand to hand, Wess is a practitioner of Teras Kasi but also isnt afraid to use the menagerie of weapons his suit provides. Besides a blaster, the suit also has mini missiles, a flamethrower, a retractable vibro blade, a taser, a portable shield, and the ever useful jetpack

Personality: Confident, honest, and resonable all sum up Wess best. He's a business man first and foremost but he operatres in such a way that he garners respect from his enemies and friends. He's also a good person at heart, usually only taking bounties for real scum of the Rim but he's also quick to act. If someone shoves a blaster in his face, be they crime boss or slave, he usually acts with blinding speed to dispatch the threat, often permanently.

While he is a legend to be admired and feared in equal measure on some planets, especially Hutta, Wess doesnt live the life of luxury. He doesnt eat well, get drunk often, or even own slaves or driods. Everything he makes goes into Research and development of his armors as he seeks new and old technology to integrate into their design. His latest model that he calls Pride is likely the most advanced suit in the outer Rim, if not the galaxy. Having an advanced AI to assess threats along with all manner of weapons and equpment certainly puts it in the realm of technological marvel.

Bio: Wess grew up on a small moon called Burat on the outer rim, just a stones throw away from Hutta. His family was small, having just his parents, himself, and his little sister. His parents were both masters of the martial art called Teräs Käsi and taught Wess the art as early as they could. Though Wess wasnt as interested in the Martial art as he was technology. From an early age he saw its general uses and the way people created works of art in their droids, ships, and weapons making the process of creating something amazing in his eyes. Coupled with his knowledge of Teräs Käsi Wess designed many suits of protective armor that would not only protect a fighter but enhanced their abilities.

By the time he was sixteen Wess had designed many different kinds of powered armor that could turn a master of the art into an untouchable god. It would be two years later when he encountered his first hutt: Minroo. A horrible and bloated creature who mostly ran drugs and illegal weapons shipments. Minroo had heard of his designs and wanted to hire Wess on to develop a new line of weaponry to equip his forces but Wess turned him down. Unfortunately Minroo didnt leave, instead he ordered his enforcers to torch the colony, leaving Wess to watch in horror and fight in vain to stop them.

Once it was over there were only a handful of people left and they began to rebuild. Wess didnt. The monstrous crimes could not be forgotten and certainly not forgiven, he had to get revenge. Over a year he took to designing a new suit of armor which he called Vengence. It arguably became the most powerful suit in all of the Rim. Then posing as an engineer he infiltrated Minroo's palace. Over the course of another year he prepared systems and set explosives, all for a fateful night of revenge. When that night came Minroo's forces never knew what hit them. All of his leadership were killed when the explosions happened, along with most of Minroo's personal guard. Wess walked in with flames burning and his blaster firing, picking off the weak and unprepared as he fought to Minroo's personal chamber. He confronted the Hutt there and killed him with his bare hands before turning on the stragglers. By the end of the night there were only a handful of the hutt's employee's alive and Wess took a personal trophy of the hutt's tongue which still has a place on his trophy wall. The only casualty of his was the vengence armor being damages beyond repair

The next day Wess claimed the dozen's of small bounties set for Minroo and his goons, collecting an unprecedented number of credits. Every credit was spent on the mark 2 armor that Wess wears today. A suit that lacks the raw power of vengence but has much greater versatility. Since the seige of Minroo's Wess has stuck with bounty hunting and his bounties have made quite the name for himself. Y'thark the verpine smuggler, Mon Voro the Empire Moff turned traitor, and Jana Yari the Zabrak assassin have all been claimed over the years. Yet six years after Minroo's death Wess continues his work both on his armor and claiming bounties of the worst scum in the galaxy

Although it is cliche if you want to make a wookie, go ahead. You can do some interesting things with them
