This will be twenty years before the Phantom Menace. This will take place on a strange and mysterious moon that has ties to the force but it is only accessible for three months every 2000 years. There will be three factions Jedi, Sith, Bounty Hunter. You will begin as a padawan near the end of their training before they become actual Knights or Sith Lord. The Moon in it self is amazingly a self sustaining ecosystem non-reliant of Light or warmth from External forces. Earth like plants (Think our kind of trees and grass) sprout in forests and in abandon. This will be player driven with PVP being Pan.
For example
Player 1 picks 2
Player 2 picks 7
Player 2 wins Light wound to leg
Player 2 puts down a post describing how they hit the other player in the leg.

"The prophecy claims of a moon that wanders this galaxy every two millennium where for three months it is in on the outer ridge planets. The prophecy also brings up that this moon is an abomination as it relys on no sun to bring life, it almost never has light, and it was the birth place of many of the Sith's most powerful pariahs. The council has ruled to send over twenty Jedi Knights and masters along with their Padawans as an expeditionary force to sweep the moon for any recent signs of Sith activity." The transmission beamed as small republic frigate began its course for The Moon of Monoliths. Padawan, some who never seen combat, stare at the blue hologram in uncertainty as their masters and mentors spoke to one another the possibilities of Dark side appearing on such site.

"You have been selected to recon the Moon of Monoliths for the Scar bringers weapons company. Your contract states a payment of four million credits when you retrieve any of these legend artifacts" the message began to bleep into pictures as drawings of dark crystals and ancient machinery " There is the high possibility of Jedi arriving on the moon so we suggest you work in teams, and to avoid internal conflict all precipitating members will get the four million credits but the one who deposit is will get a luxurious bonus on the side." The female voice announce on the counsel of ship as its engines predestinated themselves to the dark sphere of the moon.

"Today Brothers and Sisters we shall begin our pilgrimage to a place of worship that only a few of ancestors could ever make. We shall storm the halls of the temple of Zane and learn what he has learn. If the Jedi dare step foot on our holy lands then their feet share be separated from their ankle and their head from their neck! I know most of you are only apprentices but this is the time where the darkness gifts us with the power to destroy our enemies!' The charismatic speaker shouted through his mask as the oxygen in the air was poison to his species. "We are not intruders, we are guests in this place of legend. Do not threat when the machines of old begin to breathe life in thier gears as they will recognize the dark side. This moon shall protect us as we protect it."

WHOA WHOA WHOA...cool your jets. This haven't started yet. Wait before trying to corrupt.

LOL sorry

Apologies. Let me just take a note for later.

well might as well introduce the NPCs for each faction.

Sith
Master Khu'wah (Cool-Wa)
The leader of the first pilgrimage to the Moon of monoliths and has been overall accepted as this generations commander of the Sith. In recent years his health has been failing and he has been reduce to being bed ridden and taking medications dosage that would kill any healthy being. He weilds a single saber and was once a jedi of great reputation but when the need to dwell in the darkness to save a small village he was order to turn himself in for trial. Believing his brothers jealous of his powers they would execute him for the small fumble from the path of light he executed the escort of jedi knights and their padawans as a warning of never come near me again. He vanished from the galaxy's eye to form a school for the sith. He found several sith Lords struggling to keep themselves secret while teaching. Once he convince them to join him his infamy spread and a temple of the darkside was built on an asteroid in the outer rim.


Second in command
Nethas Solan (Nev-as Soul-in)
Khu'wah apprentice before he drifted into the darkside. When word came of Khu'wah true betrayal the council sent Nethas in hopes that an old time friend could bring the traitor back in ether loose bounds or in chains. But once Nethas approached Khu'wah he threw himself down to his former mentor as he announce that he was with the dark side since he was coronated a Knight. Nethas never shown himself in any direct plans of Khu'wah but the few attempts on Khy'wah's life ether by Jedi or power hungry allies have all failed from Nethas's influence. Once his master dies he would claim the title of Sith Master but some claim the recent lack of health was his doing.


Guardian of the Obsidian forest A.K.A. the NPC that will guide Sith Users mainly.
Jesia Lorn
Jesia was a proud warrior on her planet but she always had a cruel streak in her, burning homes of villagers, torturing P.O.W.s, beating her own soldiers, and killing innocents for not involving themselves for her cause. As her planet began to rip it self apart from centuries of warfare Sith began to arrive to take children away from their homes so they could learn in the dark side. When Jesia's own daughter was taken from her she unwittingly used to force to crash the ship. Her daughter killed by her own anger she slaughter everyone around her for three days using a dead Sith's saber. When her body failed her from exhaustion Nethas and Khu'wah dragged her to a medical station. After she was strapped down with common and force restrains they took their time breaking her will so she would join them. After two months of low supply rationing she broke down after an eight hour marathon of making her relive her daughter's death over and over again. She tends to drift away from the main sith community and usaully guards the forest areas that are accessible. The few who been able to talk to her have said something that she wanders like her daughter in the woods looking for life. She is still the cruel and angry warrior before and her force abilities aren't the best but she is furious and her attacks have crumble some of the most renown Jedi's defenses.


Bounty Hunters
Jwayne Morrin
He has been reported as the main representative to the company's freelance devision. He is only loyal through time and cash but mainly cash. He is cool headed and very reasonable when it come to mercy for non-targets/witnesses.
The Jedi Council have been looking for him since he blew up several transports carrying Jedis to Coruscant. Sith have no opinion of him and seem to not care for any of his previous actions


Jedi
Master Henryn Fornastas
The most recent master inducted into the council and a master tactician who been known for his exploits against a small army lead by several Sith. He generally cares for all of his brothers and sisters of the force but knowing that this could be exploited he seems cold and ruthless to them. He had no prior encounters with Khu'wah or his temple but he has known of him for quite some time. He hopes that the Moon is just an empty rock that seems to sprout life by some mysterious way but he knows deep down it couldn't be that easy. His first Aprentice was killed by Jwayne's attack on the transport and he been hunting the hunter for some years now trying to bring him in justice.


Unit commander 19 (She leads Jedi Players)
Solas Norl
She is young women who was blinded in a battle. Jedi diplomats that were deployed to the planet learned of kidnappings in a nearby village ruled by a tyrannical leader. When they arrive they found the entire area in shambles full of corspes of villagers and soldiers alike. Several Siths were found in the wreckage with their bodies compromised by someone else eliminating any trace evidence. It took years but by using the force she created a sonar using a slight force pulse every two seconds. the pulse is unnoticebly small but at times of battle her the pulse seems to be harder and harder.


Jedi apprentice
Loasin Arec
A young man from Coruscant who was delivered to the temple. Happens to have a strong connection to the force in places of harmony and peace but in war his focus seems to be gone he solely rely on his saber. Yoda seeing this as a problem sent him ont his mission knowing the moon is a place of worship for both Jedi and Sith that Loasin will learned to tame the wild force within him. He was courageous and yet humble. He is pretty much the poster boy of the Jedi in terms of personalty.

OH when can we start.

*Scratches chin*
When Sage joins and if doesn't by tomorrow then tomorrow

Lets hope he does post

Intro post later tonight

Get in!!!!

Sam
Its been three weeks since you arrived and training has steepened as your teachers demand greater and greater requirements from you. You body has failed you twice as the strain continues to build. The eerily droids that awoke on your arrival watch you with great interest as others watch your companions and mentors. The few living people on this moon worship every step you take as you are sith and sith are holy. Sam been encounter several times temples with the most defensive and not even Khu'wah could influence the droids or the tribal peoples to allow them in. There is forest that shares its space with obsidian like spikes and at its center theres is a massive tree growing from a large dark crystal in the middle of a collection pool from a waterfall. Jessia is usually found here meditating in the waters or beating the newest apprentices into submission. You found yourself attracted to another strange place where a dark temple lies with a green light pouring out of the top. The elders claim it is a burial mound but it is also a energy generator of some kind.
Today's daily teachings were to reinforce prior knowledge as your class will graduate into lords of the Sith on this moon and the preparations for the ritual will begin. Once the review was over you chose to ignore physical trianing for once to meditation. You eyes stare blankly at a poor of hot tar as your mind combated several enemies and each with an unique advantage over you. But it was an unexplainable explosion that woke you from mental slumber as you head darted upwards as a transport without any of your temple's markings open fire on your school. Drop pods launch themselves at your current location. Uniformed troops clamber out of them, they aren't individual bounty hunters but a cohesive units of soldiers. The transport morphed slightly to show off hidden batteries that began opening fire. Four men with standard issue blasters began firing at your class, but across the tar pit.

Fieugar S'Anen
Your team of four were sent ahead of the main Jedi group. Solas Norl Brings food and water regularly with ease as if she been living here with no trouble. You hear explosions far off in the distance.
"a third party has enter the fray." The intercom on Solas's wrist announce as your recon agents watch the fight from their stealth fighters.
" This doesn't change our mission, we need to attack the communications center to try to stop the droids." Solas explain to the young group. "Laosin go ahead with Fieugar and clear the path for the rest of us. Fieugar doesn't say everything but moves silently ahead. Laosin complains about always being picked for this type of mission. The path of nothing more but a stripe of mud in the forest that the droids and sith tread on a regular basis. As soon as the two young jedi leave cover two droids break their hidden positions for an ambush.
(these are older droids but they are heavily armor and have some pretty nefty weapons. A four pod grenade launcher and a heavy chain blaster on their arm. Picture this but black.)

Readying himself for the fight he noticed that this is a small force of republic troop. Sam grabbed his lightsaber and activated it its might buzz shocked the republic troops in front of him, Sam gazed up and lifted his arm as he did one of the republic troops grabbed his throat, begins to levitate and gasping for breath then his legs stopped twitching and Sam flung him off a tree crushing bone. Shocked by the death of a fellow the troops did not see Sam rush into them slashing his mighty red blade slashing limbs clean off and ending the painful shrieks and beheading another the head rolling to the feet of the last troop he lifted his blaster and before he could pull the trigger a red blade burst through his chest.....It was Jane protecting her master

"We must protect the temple! This means the jedi know we are here." Spoke Sam. He and Jane ran to the rest of the republic troops and attack but found that there was only corpses and saw Jesia Lorn sitting and meditating and in the corner of Sam's eye he saw the flaming wreck with the dismembered pilot strapped to the front of the ship. Sam looked around but knew not to disturb her meditation because he saw a Sith troop do it and he was beaten to death. Sam headed back to the temple to meditate.

The grenades exploded almost as soon as they were visible, giving Fieugar barely enough time to block the shrapnel flying towards them. Silently, he was almost grateful for the attack, as it had stopped Laosin's complaining. The two massive droids leaped out of cover in a co-ordinated attack which they had clearly been programmed for. Four lines of laser fire streaked through the air, Fieugar barely igniting his lightsaber blade in time to stop the two aimed at him. Laosin had jumped out of the way, throwing his blade at one of the droids. The blue streak severed the lower arm from the droid firing at Fieugar.

Fieugar glanced back at Laosin, the only thanks he could afford before extending his arm to force the second droid back before it took aim at him as well. Laosin's face seemed panicked as his lightsaber failed to return to his outstretched hand. A moment of fear lanced through Fieugar as the second droid got back to its feet, firing grenades randomly through the air to give itself time to aim. Thinking quickly, Fieugar angled his blade to reflect the laser blasts from the first droid into the grenades of the second. The series of explosions rocked the earth beneath him as he sent a final laser blast back into the blaster of the droid, disabling it.

Leaping into the air, he grabbed the final grenade of the second droid, shoving it into its midsection before diving into cover. The resulting explosion knocked the other droid onto its back, and Fieugar finished it off with a pair of precise strokes of his blade. He jumped back, lifting his blade defensively as something flew through the air. Smiling weakly, Laosin showed him the lightsaber hilt he had finally managed to call back to him.

Without a word, Fieugar de-activated his blade and continued down the trail.

Name: Kol Trask
Age: 38 Standard
Species: Mandalorian
Faction: Bounty Hunters
Bio: Once a Mando, always a Mando. Born into a clan of die-hard Neo-Crusaders who couldn't quite grasp the fact that they had lost the Mandalorian Wars nearly two thousand standard years ago, Trask spent his entire life raiding and warring against the most worthy of foes his clan could find, from the Republic to space pirates, to reclusive Sith enclaves. After years of glorious battle, the Republic enveloped their vessels in a lethal crossfire that saw destruction of the last Neo-Crusaders, and Kol Trask plummeting to a nearby jungle moon in an escape pod. There, he survived by feeding off the local animals and fending off the megafauna with his vibrosword. After years of fighting for survival, he finally made contact with the reclusive native tribes, who had long watched him from afar, and worshipped him as an avatar of their war god. In accordance to their beliefs, Trask was overtaken by the natives and sealed inside an ancient Sith hibernation chamber, where he was forced into stasis, where he remained for the next two thousand years. Now, he has awakened from his slumber, the tomb having opened when it felt the touch of so many Force sensitives arriving on the planet. Trask watches these new arrivals with interest, hoping they can provide him with a way off this god-forsaken rock.

We got a hunter here.

I've decided when a PC is fighting a major NPC then Pan will be involved.
Sam
A circle of you fellow apprentices forms at the base of the steps to the temple you were assigned to. Master Khu'wah's second in command was talking about strategies and battle plans. His pale face was hidden by his hood. You notice one of the republican troops was dead on the floor and the group surrounded him for study the weaknesses in armor.
"You there, what have you to report?" Nethas demanded of you as approach the mass of would be siths.
"Republican troops are using drop bods to create an constant barrage of troops. Strange thing is they are usually really sensitive in the matters of suicide missions and they wouldn't send so many without a artillery cover."
"Ah, so none of you have noticed?"
"Noticed what sir?" a much younger apprentice asked as he crawled his way into the center.
" They're not Republican troops. Look at the armor plate, see that emblem? Its faded but it belongs the Vallore Pharmaceutical company. They disguise their private army as republican soldiers so they could cross the blockade the real Republic has set up."
" So. that means. No Jedi!" Some girl in the back said in a relief voice. The girl amused their elder Sith to the point of laughing as he brought her forcefully onto her knees as he choked her with his force.
"Naive and weak of will I see. But there is so much fear that may be lead to anger. Potential...yes." Nethas analysis the student. "There are Jedi here using gorrila tactics trying to break down the communications array. It doesn't matter though. I've sent Jessia to protect the Obsidian forest. You!" He points at Sam " Go and protect the tombs of the forests, thats were the droids slumber and if the Jedi get in there we will lose our main line.
A half of hour has past and the forest gave way to areas of obsidian sand and stone. A small convoy of Droids follow you as they were assigned. Boredom slithered into your mind as you trudge the path way. A flashing light caught your attention as the droid directly behind you stepped on a mine. an Explosion erupted and more of the false republicans flooded the path.

Fieugar
Loas (short for Loasin) stood up taking a deep sigh of relief as the droid slowly succumbed to power failure. Several smaller droids flew overhead ignoring Fieugar's existence which he didn't mind. The dirt path slowly switch to mossy metallic plates. A small building made of stone stood in the center of the metal square. The stone gave way to a tower of a cylinder that glowed green.
"must be the communications center." Loas announced and with a grin he sped towards the tower with the thermal charges on his back while you stayed in cover with an outstretch hand in protest to the rash decision.
"His bravery is going to get me killed." Fieugar mumbled as he took a more cautious approach to their objective. Loas already planted the charge at the bast but while he was getting his climbing gear assembled one of the metal sqaures open to reveal a heavy assault droid while two of the flying droids did a smooth strafing run. at Loas nearly killiing him.

Trask
Trask sat on a hilltop watching the temple closely looking to see if there were any ships that were easy access. none to speak of. The shock of the drop pods woke Trask from his an unwelcome nap. He saw several of the younger sensitives die in the first wave. The droids he scarecely remembered from his arrival from the before open fired on the intruders.
"Freeze." a cool yet dark voice commanded as the click of a semi auto blaster warned of experience. "So mind explaining what you're doing on this planet?" Trask looked back to see another Mandalorian in his myst but wearing red armor staring at him with predator like eyes.

"Mandálii kote, Mandálii kel'lum, is that any way to greet a fellow Man'doa?"
