Roleplay - Mercenary DownfallThere will be an upcoming role-play which any sith can apply to join.
The basic outline of the RP will be that a large vessel has just entered local space. This vessel is owned by a private mercenary company headed by an unknown leader. This vessels arrival has prompted the emperor to act. Emperor shadow has ordered a small group of sith to infiltrate the vessel and discover its purpose.
The RP will have (predictably) many twists and turns, and each sith shall have their own role to play.
The two main objectives of the role-play are:-
1. To eliminate all high ranking officials on a freelance mercenary vessel.
2. To recover any information as to the past course of the vessel to see where it has been.
Any sith can join, as long as they state their wish to here before the RP starts, No sith may join after the RP has started, any rouge sith posting will be reprimanded and their post deleted by a mod/admin.
The deadline for volunteering is by Monday morning at 8am (GMT) Thank you.
The current sith confirmed on the RP are
Executor Duff - GM and Group leader - not an active part, just info on where to go, what to do.... I shall also stand in for some major enemy characters (bosses)
Seti - Leader of Alchemist team
Angmar - leader of inquisitorial team
Acrimonus - leader of military team
Tarna - Hand
Qel'Vos - Prophet
As can be seen there will be 3 main teams, each with a sub-story that will unfold, sith can apply to be in a specific team, but this leaves no guarantee you shall get it. Tarna and Qel'Vos shall play individual roles.
Any questions for the RP can be posted here.
Note:
No sith will die in this roleplay, but some may become injured and transported back to the ship. This will result in their exit from the RP

Why only Sith? Why can't Jedi join?
|
Supreme Commander Alor
|
um, could it have anything to do with this being a Sith site?

This is becasue the initial storyline was centred around the sith, not jedi...
If you wish i could include jedi in upcoming RP's but it simply doesnt fit in with the storyline of this one, i didnt mean to discriminate but sometimes it just happens
Sorry

Odd considering the Jedi allow Sith to RP on the Jedi site, thus making it a much more popular RP site. Notice how not many RPs take place here? Yeah. So watch your tongue.

Emperor Shadow

I'm pretty big on personal freedoms. However, Xander, if you wish to begin a roleplay wherein both Sith and Jedi may participate on this site, I would not object in the least. The truth of the matter is that not so many Jedi frequent this site and I will not force Duff to accept any who do. But feel free to begin one or more that include both.
|
Darth Relentless

I would like to be apart of this RP if possible.

High Defender Adenn

I wish to join as well

Sovereign Defender Tarna

I'm reporting in for my duties, Executor.

Considering the two are sister sites, and future projects, I would say that this site allows Jedi on it as well. From your ignorance I can safely assume you had never even heard of Rebels before I mentioned it. Do your research. This site is part of a larger thing than you realise.

Lord Angmar

I shall wait for this RP to start.

Same here.

Exactly why I requested to join this RP. I feel that Rebels is being used for RPs, and this site is being disregarded. All is in order, and I'll pop into the RP when called for by Duff.

When will we begin?

I shall officially start the role-play tomorrow night around 7ish (GMT) Before that i shall post a list of all sith confirmed on the RP and what their role will be.
I shall also PM any sith with "Special" Roles...

I have heard of Rebels ( I am not ignorant), if you paid attention to this site (a Sith site) you would find that most of the characters are Sith.
Sith and Jedi are enemies, so I am just playing the part of the antagonizing enemy.
Now enough of this in the thread, its an RP not a debate room...

You are not a member over there and showed ignorance to my comment to suggest you didn't. And most of the characters on Rebels are Jedi, and yet both sites offer RPs to both.
In OCC thread that isn't nessescary.
And yet you were the one who revived this. That's irony for you.
|
Supreme Commander Alor
|
Insulting a Sith never was a smart move on your part- but it will slide for now, just once...
To say that I revived it, you started the whole foolish thing, by posting a whiny complaint in this thread. Next time try a move appropriate location, like the complaints thread
|
Xander Vos
|
I never insulted you, but reminded you of your place, as this is an OCC thread.
I didn't start any foolish thing. I asked to be a member of this RP in a positive move to try to bring more Jedi into RPs here, and YOU made the whingy comment.
The complaints thread is for Sith with concerns to the structure of this site. As I am neither a Sith no longer, nor concerned with the structure of the site, I need not use it.
|
Supreme Commander Alor
|
i wasn't complaining, I was making a logical point, this still is a Sith site. Sith and Jedi are different, so unless you tell me a Sith is running the Jedi Council and Gov't (again), then please, lets have enough of this here or in other threads
To say that 2 different admins of 2 different sites should think alike on the RP's, is a mistake...
|
Xander Vos
|
I don't see the relevance of a point that has never occurred (so why the [again?]) And I was making a logical point, the Jedi and Sith are sister sites, and are allies, not enemies. They support each other and carry the same basic rules.
No it isn't, because as I said above, they are not two separate sites, but sister sites. Seriously dude, get your facts straight, otherwise its just damn embarrasing.
|
Supreme Commander Alor
|
are they run by the same people?
(the again was a reference to Palpatine running the Republic under the nose of the Jedi, nothing to do with the actual forum. A joke or pun if you will, you know the funny comments that can have two meanings)
|
Xander Vos
|
The Emperor Shadow has now a say in Jedi-Sith matters on Rebels, with access to our Council Chambers, as I do here.
Palpatine never ran the Jedi Council, and as that is what we are, the pun was irrelevant.
|
Supreme Commander Alor
|
the pun was refering to the GOv't side of things (you know Supreme Chancellor Palpatine)
|
Xander Vos
|
I do. We are not part of a Government, as I said above. We are the Jedi Order, which Palpatine never controlled.
Now, get back on topic, for the love of God.
I'll join this RP when Duff wants me to, until then, I guess I'll just sit and watch the fun.
|
Supreme Commander Alor
|
and if Duff doesn't want you to join?
|
Xander Vos
|
Do you read anything or just make noise? As I have already said countless times to no avail apparently, he PMed me and asked me to join at a later date when he wants me to come in. So back down. Sheesh, what crawled up your ass and died?
|
Supreme Commander Alor
|
he could change his mind, now enough of this, befoer we get obscene...
wait you just did!!
|
Xander Vos
|
And yet he hasn't PMed me. Need you argue against everything I say? If I said white was white, would you argue back and say it was black? Now seriously dude, I tried to get back on topic, but no, you dragged it right back. Please, I'm sure if Duff were here he would say the same as me, get back on topic. That's not an order - as you have constantly reminded me, you outrank me here (*yawn*) it is however a friendly suggestion that you follow the guidelines.
|
Lord Seti
|
Darth Marix, I have already addressed this issue in the Entrance Hall. But let me reinforce the message: STOP. Also, seeing as you are trying to pull rank, allow me. I outrank you. I also am the evilest Sith in the Empire.(By popular vote.) Those two facts should remind you of your place. This is a discussion of a RP. So lighten up & lets all get back on topic.
-Seti
|
Emperor Shadow
|
While we are sister sites, I made friends with the founders of Rebels before many of the Sith on this forum. We're very close and any shred of canonical history you care to assimilate would reflect that fact. The Sith and Jedi of DSL and Rebels are allies out-of-character as well as in-character at this time. There are more pressing matters for us to worry about than insulting a former member of this site.
|
Darth Duff
|
OK sorry for the delay here is a full list of all sith participating in this role-play
Seti - Leader of Alchemist team
Angmar - leader of inquisitorial team

I shall start a new thread for the role-play, any discussion will be done in this thread.... Under no circumstance may you use an out of character quote... any running commentary will be done here, use it and abuse it....
Also unless I personally deem an action wrong - due to the impossibility of it happening, please do not question it in the RP, use this thread....
I would also like to request... Nay demand that all participants act accordingly in this role-play, No participant must enter slanging matches with others in the role-play and no previous arguments or disagreements will be brought into it..... You know who you are, enough is enough...
Other than that please have a good time, i shall PM all participants with "special" tasks now, please do not be disappointed if you don't get PM'ed, there is always time in the future for that...

Xander Vos

I apologise for the divergence that occurred in this thread. It won't happen again.
|
Darth Thrax
|
It wasn't entirely your fault Xander.
|
Xander Vos
|
But I inflamed it (no pun intended), and for that I am sorry.

Isaah

It's okay, flame-bait posts or not.. it's equally as much his fault for letting it get to him. Many don't have that respect that we had in the old days, eh? Haha.. you're alright in my books, I'd be glad to RP with you, Xander.
|
Darth Thrax
|
You're alright in my books as well Xander. As they say in the hood: I got yo back homie!

The old days were awesome. The original Council, when they were active, ruled (Not that the new one is bad, just from my personal experience, I haven't really experienced the new Council) The Apprentices back then learnt a lil respect for their elders! Hmph!

He's right, Xander, it was just as much my fault as yours, and I must have been a little hyper yesterday. Usually, I can ignore most things thrown at me, and retaliate at a later time, when least expected. But:
Sorry to all for the rashness of my posts yesterday...
|
Darth Relentless
|
Concerning this RP, I had no online time yesterday, i'm off in a second and i wont be online at all tomorrow so i wont be able to participate until Thursday sometime, but after that i should be good. Sorry if it causes any inconvenioncies.
|
Isaah
|
Umm.. can we get something interesting to happen in this RP? or.. is it just going to die?
|
Darth Duff
|
Sorry, i just cant start it without the emperors brief, it just wouldn't be proper.
Shadow said that he will post as soon as he can, and so i don't want to go back on my word and ignore the brief.....
So please, be patient
|
Supreme Commander Alor
|
has every one that would be participating joined in on the other thread?
|
Isaah
|
Alright, I can wait, then. How 'bout you post in that duel 'o ours?
|
Darth Duff
|
Ok the Rp has started, emperor Shadow has asked me to fill in his role with a briefing and so with this it is no started, i shall not post again until all sith have signed in....
BTW the RP is located in the Official Missions Thread.
Any Qu's, just ask.
|
Darth Duff
|
OK this is a warning, not all sith have joined the RP as of the official first post.
Any sith who do not post before Sunday shall be discounted from this role-play and it shall go ahead without them.
It is soul crushing really as i have put a lot of time and effort into the plot of the RP, with roles for each character.
If i am forced to cut Sith out then it will require a revamp of the plot. Either way it is going ahead, as a large RP with a well thought through plot or a considerably smaller one with a patched up, last minute plot.
Thanks.

I was wondering what was happening with this RP.. I'm very eager to get it started

Me to, that's why i cant wait and risk it dyeing before it has begun. I am very sympathetic if you have problems where you have other business to take care of, but surely in a week you can find the time for 1 post stating that you would be unavailable.
|
Darth Thrax
|
Same here.
|
Isaah
|
Well.. I can vouch for Seti, because I know he's had medical problems, and another might have came up. But I don't know what's up with anyone else.
|
Darth Thrax
|
It seems as though they've lost interest in it.
|
Supreme Commander Alor
|
i haven't, it is a great idea and should be used as an oppurtunity to show your battle skills as well as to have fun...
|
Darth Duff
|
I realise that there are some circumstances that are un-preventable yet the show must go on so we shall start on sunday.
|
Supreme Commander Alor
|
coolness...
|
Darth Relentless
|
My bad again guys, i'm getting nowhere near enough online time these days as i would like :/
|
Darth Acrimonus
|
((I've returned from my trip, and am ready to take back control of Acrimonus from Duff. Not that it seems he felt the need to take control at this time.))
|
Darth Acrimonus
|
Sorry for the double post. I assume in the way things have progressed that the vessels I've mentioned calling from other duties aren't with us. Shall we be keeping them as back up, or find some excuse that they had to be rerouted for other duties and we're going without?
|
Darth Duff
|
Lets go on without them and explain it as they were just standing guard of the ship
|
Sovereign Defender Tarna
|
Duff, I'm confused. The Chief Mercenary has an outside leader?
|
Darth Duff
|
Yes, a leader who controls a huge criminal network galaxy wide. He does not travel with them as it is too dangerous and does not simply limit his options to mercenary work.
|
Sovereign Defender Tarna
|
Gotcha. I was confused for a sec, but I'm good.
|
Supreme Commander Alor
|
I am thinking about getting out of the RP...
since i am going to be gone for so long, maybe my character should get hit with a stun ray or something... Maybe he can jump in front of a ray headed for Acrimonus or something like that...
|
Sovereign Defender Tarna
|
How heroic!
|
Supreme Commander Alor
|
well, i don't want to be a drag (since i am not going to be there). If there are no objections by tomorrow, then I'll let someone else post this:
| Commodore Marix wrote: | Dodging and blocking the blaster fire coming toward him, he sent it back towards its sources, and some elsewhere. Sensing Acrimonus in the force, he could feel the Dark Lord doing likewise. Streching out through the Force, he sensed something grave. A group of maybe ten more mercs were headed their way. HE tried to call out to Acrimonus, but before he could, they opened fire. Blocking what he could, he edged his way toward the Commander. AS he passed over a downed trooper, he felt a prick in his leg. Looking down, the trooper was holding a vial of some sorts. At once, he began to feel woosy. Stumbling over to Acrimonus, he took up a position at his back. Blocking for the both of them, he saw a droid enter the room.
All of a sudden, its chest opened up, and the muzzles of five blasters pointed at Acrimonus' back. Sending out stun rays, as not to violate the Protocol Droids programming, Marix jumped in front of them and caught them full. Falling to the ground, he barely saw Acrimonua turn and use Force lightning on all of the remaining mercs. He then knelt down and checked Marix's vital signs. Sensing he was okay, for now, he commed to Duff for an update to the situation and to report a downed soldier... |
