I'm sure CMAC have their characters slotted for an epic opening, so I figured we could begin to plan our own...
I always felt the more people, the bigger the bang. It fuels the community, and gets your character out there, without being sucked into a self-produced cycle that eventually bores you.
I was hoping since we probably have three to five days before the game *officially* starts, it would give us enough time to lock down a few players, and start something off. Whether it be foreshadowing something you want to achieve later, or just a personality-rundown...
However, I understand the desire to start alone, and meet up at a central location, so this is more of a discussion topic of how you plan to start your characters, or the general ideas behind them... |

I'm teetering between a couple of ideas for Jacen.
The first one would see him undercover or running a surveillance operation with a small team of other agents.
The second would be either serving as Intelligence Liaison on a starship or on shore leave from serving as an Intelligence Liaison. _________________ Lieutenant Jacen Tranada

Let's see... I've got a sort of robbery going for Dakota, an assassination on a backwater planet for Zach, not much for Kelson (maybe a bar...), and nothing at all for Aaron Church. _________________ Zachary Alan Baird

I've got nil for this guy. I was hoping to be at least involved in some sort of pirate plotline, in which a rouge faction repeatedlty attacks civilian and military taargets, attempting to gather resources to build a GYNOURMOUS ship. Then, if the ship was eventually taken by teh G.U. my character(s) could escape and live with the underground folks already doing... whatever underground folks feel like doing. |

I was planning on having my character's just doing their jobs. Arden will probably be out salvaging. Or maybe having him sitting in some bar, gathering information. Knowing where Battle;s occured is very important to him, and a few drinks are something in the ways of an investment.
Pennec... I dunno. If he get's approved, I'll see if anybody needs a pilot to ferry them to where ever they are going. |

Reminds me of me from last game. I said "Alliance fighter pilot", and I didn't make it into any storylines. |

Over-plotting leads to problems. We usually rely on players to find their own way, or at most, groups of three or four. _________________ Emperor Ams Jendob, Ruler of the Imperial Remnant

It's nice to have an overall plot for players to follow, though. With that said, I'm willing to help out anyone who is struggling to come up with something. Just send me a PM or look me up on MSN and I'd be happy to talk it out with you. |

I disagree 100%,
Looking back on VII and VIII, some of the greatest moments were collaborated with more than four people.
I was also thinking a robbery, Zachary, perhaps we could come up with an epic showdown or something. |

I'm sure Zero will have something to do
I don't know which plaet Jase's academy is on yet, but once I do, I would hope there is interaction with other Jedi since he is a council member in this continuity. That's right kids, all that stuff from VII and VIII? Never happened
It's a brand new Jase....... some of the same attitude though >_> |

I wouldn't mind having Lucas intern there... I think its best he gets a bit of everything that is out there. (In unity, perhaps, we could be friends? ) |

Oh, no internships available, visiting Jedi are welcome, but Jase has Sahana for handling all the things he is too busy to deal with |

Anyhow, can anyone use a Republic Solider? Or Remnant Unity-Equivalent of the LAAT/i Pilot? _________________ Zachary Alan Baird

The truth, Jase speaks. The sweet aroma of electronic cookies is pouring out of my digital kitchen as we speak... and NONE FOR YOU. Unless, of course, we can has game. _________________ Zachary Alan Baird

5 days isn;t that long, you can be patient a little longer... and brownies are better than cookies any day (Pi(e) is best sweet of all though)
If I get approved sometime soon (*cough cough*), my character'll probably be hunting some bounty. |

Om nom nom nom, Qui-Gon.
There isn't much to do, but what must be done is highly technical and only one administrator can handle it. Hence the sluggish progress, since he's also a player and is working on a post and several joint-posts. Plus trying to finish the BSG finale. _________________ Empress Shayera Jendob
