"You look tired," Nom said thoughtfully. "We won't take up much of your time. We merely want to be introduced to Flax and then be allowed to return to our ship."

"In a damn hurry too," Tarila muttered under her breath. Her patience had long since run out and she wasn't good at hiding it.

jokemaster · 11-07-2005, 12:42 PM

Greer: That'll have to wait. He's meeting with the jedi council.

Writer · 11-07-2005, 02:43 PM

Nom opened his mouth, but Tarila spoke first.

"Then we'd like to give him a message saying we want to meet him and be allowed to return to our ship," she snapped.

((At some point, my Jedi characters are going to run into the Vilnovs... haven't quite figured that out yet...))

jokemaster · 11-07-2005, 06:11 PM

Greer: The operation's complete. So you're free to go. I don't, however, guarantee you'll be able to meet with him if you do.

Writer · 11-07-2005, 08:20 PM

Nom nodded and turned to his sister. "Tarila, prep the shuttle. I'll wait here a little longer." He turned back to Greer. "Thank you."

He turned to watch his sister hurry off and smiled, turning back to Greer. "Is there any way we might arrange a meeting where he's at now? Perhaps we could be there waiting for him when he's finished with his meeting."

I move we declare Cracken inactive and start the next thread. We know he's on the boards but he's choosing not to post. FYI, JM I'm fully back now, I'll stop lurking and get to grips with my side arc in the other thread tomorrow.

**Redwing** · 11-20-2005, 01:20 AM

((I'd call him and threaten him but my cell isn't working. Scar?

FYI I'm still at minimum-activity-status, because I am both moving and applying to colleges this next week and a half.))

BattleDog · 11-20-2005, 02:36 PM

I thought you were in "College" *Goes back to making notes on Herodotus of Halicarnassus.*

Admiral · 11-20-2005, 05:30 PM

((Other then cracken, there is also the slight problem that Deac AWOL as well.))

Deac · 11-20-2005, 06:28 PM

[*Deac suddenly feels a mysterious calling back to the Cantina*

Just when I was about to post a long, heartful goodbye to the Cantina and put it out of its misery, it seems people are interested again! Then I look and see I've actually missed something! You see, I had a load of net trouble this year, and by the time I came back it seemed that this was dead and gone. It made me sad. I've loved doing this for the past FOUR YEARS! I still think back to the old days when it was Darkstars this, clones that, and then the big Ragnarok incident, and then the vampires and everything. I would be very sad to see this die, and if it's going to then I have a happy dignified ending for Deac Starkiller and family. I know that many of you are busy with work etc...but I think if we were all to just post once a day...maybe we could get this going again. Discuss. And if I ever go AWOL again:

Admiral · 11-20-2005, 09:48 PM

((Well I think the best thing would be to start a new thread,that way everyone will know what is going on etc.

I also think we need to beat Red over the head so he will post more.))

**Redwing** · 11-21-2005, 04:29 AM

((It won't do any good. I'm posting this because it takes almost no thought, and I have almost no time. (and because I get email alerts when ppl reply to these RPGs.)

Hit me after the end of this month, if you wish.

My suggestion here is that we end on a cliffhanger, Cracken has to make some kind of choice and we end, we don't get to see the choice. Next thread we have a time skip, and Cracken is AWOL and only whoever's present at this meeting know what Cracken actually said, what he planned/plans to do and why he's gone, and have taken an oath not to speak of it. Something along those lines. This gives the advantage of getting us out of this plot sinkhole and offers opportunity for creative thinking later on when/if we get around to followup.

(Also, it might entice Cracken to rejoin if he gets to be all mysterious and stuff.

)

I'll, uh, have to think of something with the assassins. Maybe they can have spent all this time with recon, so they can now know their targets very thoroughly.

BD: Community college, the idea is you transfer to a university with most your lower-unit work completed, and half the work chopped off and for cheaper.))

BattleDog · 11-21-2005, 05:06 AM

You know I think one of the problems we have is the megga post, Red you're the greatest offender here. If instead of posting reams of description and a whole series of actions we should stop being so flamboyant and go back to actually RPing, instead of using this thread to work out the characters for out novels. I realise I'm fully culpable here as well.

Deac · 11-21-2005, 02:01 PM

I'd agree with those ideas. Question is...what to do for a cliffhangar...the galaxy seems mostly safe...but for how long?

Writer · 11-21-2005, 02:04 PM

Well my assassins are already spoken for... They'll end up travelling with my Jedi characters and I'll explain how that happened when the next thread starts...

BattleDog · 11-21-2005, 03:13 PM

I have a cliff hanger, If I might be permitted?

**Redwing** · 11-21-2005, 06:56 PM

((BD, I don’t use these threads to work out characters for novels. And even if I was I don’t believe that’s a bad thing.

I’ll try to reign in the mega-posts, though. I do tend to get carried away.

You know what we could do, if we’re all writing some form of fiction, and we’re all determined to let it bleed into here, is make threads for them hereabouts ala what they do at this forum. (Actually, my novel is one of the things taking time away from here, because I’m doing it for a class.)

I vote you go ahead with your cliffhanger.))

Admiral · 11-21-2005, 07:13 PM

((Well I'm guilty of mega-posting as well, but that is part of my nature I like describing things.

Anyways if you guys want I have a forum devoted to just stories that you can use to post them etc.

and BD go ahead with the cliffhanger))

Deac · 11-22-2005, 07:27 AM

Ok. Go for it BD.

((OOC: Cool, permission from the mighty three.))

The Unknown Regions, at the edge of Imperial Space.

*A Fleet of twelve night-black Imperial II-Class Star Destroyers and about twice as many support ships drops out of hyperspace. After reversion the lead ship launches a squadron of TIE Interceptors on point defence.*

*On the bridge of the same ship a grey haired man in the old uniform of an Imperial Starfleet Admiral limps stifly towards the foward viewports. Looking out the viewport was another man. Tall and and cloaked in black only his dark, short cut, greying hair showed from where he stood. As he turned to face the Admiral he showed a broodingly aristocratic face with piecing blue eyes and a narraw clean shaven chin.*

*The Admiral bowed.*

Admiral: Lord Agric, the jump has been completed successfully and our scouts report the system is clear.

Agric: What of my brother, has he retaken Coruscant?

Admiral: No Lord, he appears....Forgive me, my Lord, he appears to have restored the planet to the Rebels.

Agric: Pah! My Father's favorite son is weak. Now he will be swept away, there can be no weakness among the Sith. Set Course for Yaga Minor, Admiral.

*Fade out.*

((OOC: How's that?))

Deac · 11-22-2005, 04:35 PM

OOC: I guess as Cracken's not here he can't complain about his character recieving a mysterious brother...]

Deac · 11-22-2005, 05:27 PM

[Double Post: Wretched Browser trouble]

Coruscant Main Hangar

*Makon Jil is exiting his fighter, when in the distance he notices a figure is standing, waiting for him and smiling.*

Makon: Beler!! *He dashes over and they hug*
I thought you were dead...

Beler: That was the idea...but you got the message, didn't you?

Makon: I knew it! I knew it had to be you!
----------------------------
Jedi Temple

Deac: Well...I guess that settles it. *He goes to a corner and takes out his comm link and calls Raschel [this universe's]* Raschel...I'm going to visit Orthos...he's....he's alive...
-----------------------------
Corellian Transport en route to Coruscant

*Elella awakes*

Ellela: Oh no...I've got to warn dad. That guy...he's trouble...

------------------------------

And the Galaxy was safe again....BUT FOR HOW LONG?

Writer · 11-22-2005, 08:07 PM

((Was that......... 4 cliffhangers?

))

Kuuki · 11-22-2005, 08:26 PM

((you know, crackles was kinda pissed at my characters when i made em, i think he'd be even more with yours. considering that him, myself and red had the sleeper story to make and what not. I don't think he'll fit in much...

..and prolly get stomped flat really quick...
sry, but thats just my humble opinion.

I'm calling crackle's tonight))

???

*Havok stands on a lesser of a forgiving planet, abandoning his ship and what crew and resources he had, he travels through a rough pass on a snowy hill. He uses a crooked-shaped staff with an odd headpiece.

When he gets to a peak, he stands next to large jagged rocks coming off of the face of the hill, he looks up into the night sky, sensing a new presence...*

BattleDog · 11-23-2005, 05:48 AM

((Scar, the plot was worked out months ago, check the disscussion thread. Plus your characters are Cracken's sons this is a brother he knows nothing about. Ergo if it screws up his plans its meant to.))

**Redwing** · 11-23-2005, 06:06 AM

((Scar: Actually I don't know that Cracken would be pissed, since BD's made another son of Palpatine, which Cracken himself has no control over, but what you did necessitated Cracken taking certain actions, and hijacked his personal history.

Also, the Sleeper story wouldn't really be affected by Palpatine sleeping around and having yet more bastard sons.

Heh. That would be a good Cantina title: The Bastard Sons of Palpatine. XD

BD, how long are you time skipping again?))

BattleDog · 11-23-2005, 03:56 PM

((The next thread shouls start two weeks after this one, i.e. the Republic should be looking at getting back to normal.))

Kuuki · 11-23-2005, 07:34 PM

((meh, alrighty

I called up Crackles last night
this is a rough discription of the conversation:

****

Me: ... Oh yeah, everyone on the boards is getting ticked at me for not calling you about them being ticked at you ((said jokingly))

Crackles: yeah?

Me: Well, they want Cracken to do something

Crackles: I,.. uh... Don't have time for thread RPg's anymore...

Me: Oh, okay, so I take it that with School and your management position, is the due fact that dispite you actually posting now again, you can't devote a serious set of time to an RPG. Even though that you have just barely enough time to make a post here or there??

Crackles: Well, no. It's just that... well yeah.

Me: I mean, BD created a brother for ya and all.

Crackles: Meh.

****

thats about that... roughly...))

Writer · 11-23-2005, 08:26 PM

heh... sounds like he just got bored of these and finds other stuff more interesting...

BattleDog · 11-24-2005, 11:07 AM

((Heh, sounds like he grew up. Maybe we should do that, NAH!

So am I suppossed to start the next thread?))

Kuuki · 11-24-2005, 02:35 PM

(( why not?))

**Redwing** · 11-24-2005, 02:52 PM

((Usually Deac does it, and gives it the customary 10% accurate title, but... *shrug* the universe won't explode if you do it, although you could message him if you like

))

Deac · 11-24-2005, 03:08 PM

Ok, ok....and the title is usually at least 18% accurate I'll have you know!

**Cmdr. Cracken** · 11-28-2005, 09:55 AM

I will be getting back into it, slowly.

Another son of Palpatine? interesting, could play well, did the jedi.sith peace thing ever get resolved?

I assume they aren;t activly trying to kill eachother like the Sith Wars in the past, kinda like a Cease fire agreement.

THe Empire is returning....
