Shulk

- Fiora - Fiora had some difficulty sleeping; despite the hastily-constructed Great Wall of Pillows placed between herself and Eclaire, knowing that a half-succubus was so close to her was enough to keep her worried for a while. The presence of both Iris and Lucia in the room didn't help much, either. She eventually did fall asleep, but she had a nightmare; the woman who had torn apart her family was standing over her, commanding her. She eventually woke up in a shaken state. She hastily sat up and glanced around the room. She glanced around the room. A few people had left, including one of the people who scared her. The pillow wall appeared to be untouched as well. Fiora sighed in relief. Thankfully, nothing had gone wrong... yet. She remained on the bed, a little uncertain as to what she should do next. She couldn't just leave the group, they'd been so kind in accepting her despite arriving late. She felt a little hungry, but wasn't sure if she wanted to go off and find her way through the hotel on her own... she remained seated as she silently debated what to do. - Rose - Rose had fallen asleep on the chair she claimed. She woke up the next morning. Looks like I wasn't the first one up... She stretched, feeling a little sore after sleeping in an uncomfortable position. She glanced out the window. Still not a pretty sight... Definitely not a good subject. She retrieved her sketchpad and a pencil and opened it to a blank page. She began doing some rather simple drawings: various armor and sword designs she'd come up with after seeing different styles on her travels. She liked to start the morning out with some easy sketches.

Listening to Rogue One's soundtrack is really making me question all the negativity towards it. Sure, some tracks aren't quite as memorable as in prior Star Wars movies, but a new composer had to come in at the last minute and get all of this ready in a month. It's absolutely fantastic, especially given that time constraint.

Fiora: *Hides from everyone making weird faces* Rose: *Sits back* I'm used to some weird things happening at this point...

This faction looks good, I'm fine with you using it!

Accepted!

... You could've brought this up in PM. ._.

Alright, we'll go with that, then.

Both are accepted! I think that's the oldest Zion's ever looked before, too. Although, I'm not sure if I should count Jyn Stardust as the fourth Jedi. I don't want to say that a lot of Luke's students survived, but she isn't a part of Aerik's group...

Accepted!

Sure, just double check it with me really quick. Both are accepted! Yeah, both are great! Your characters are also accepted!

It lost exclusivity to PlayStation with the second game ever released, though. It's not a PS-only series, ever since it really became a "series" it stopped being exclusive. Limiting the playerbase is completely pointless, letting more people play it is the ideal situation both for players and Square.

The roleplay is now up! http://kh13.com/forum/topic/104051-star-wars-hope-lost-rp-signups/

It was thought that after the defeat of the Galactic Empire and the establishment of a new Republic, the galaxy would see a long period of peace. However, the hopes of the people were lost once the First Order began to rise. Supreme Leader Snoke, a mysterious man, had assembled a vast army to take down the Republic and reform the old ways of the Empire. In order to combat Snoke’s forces, former princess Leia Organa, along with other heroes of the Republic, formed a new Resistance. Gathering talented pilots, fighters, and other skilled people, the new Resistance has begun to bravely fight back against the First Order and its people. Luke Skywalker continued to train his own Jedi students, but suddenly, his nephew, Ben Solo, turned traitor; he slaughtered Luke’s students then left to join the First Order. After Ben Solo’s betrayal towards the other Jedi, Luke Skywalker left to meditate on his own. It was thought that the Resistance’s greatest warrior was lost with no one to take his place… However, a small amount of his Jedi students were able to survive the assault and joined the Resistance. These weren’t the only Jedi to survive, either: Ben, now known as Kylo Ren, brought two Jedi with him to join the First Order. These two were Lila Zaless, a Twi’lek girl, and Jasen Marow, a Bothan. The two serve under Ren, and are just beneath him in the chain of command. They have begun their assault on the Resistance, and teams must be formed to combat their fleets. Luke’s most talented student, Aerik Relam, has taken charge of his small group of Jedi and joined Resistance Fighters in order to stop Lila, Jasen, and Ren... The growing forces of the First Order meant that the Resistance had to enlist help from other groups to keep up. The leaders of the Resistance sought out mercenaries to help the cause; though many of them only cared for money, they were still skilled fighters, and the Resistance needed both the additional help and to avoid the risk of having these mercenaries allying with the First Order instead. Along with these mercenaries, the First Order managed to get help from the Guardians of the Kyber, the new monks who were working to reform the ways of the Guardians of the Whills. In order to defend the force and prevent their temple from being desecrated like the Empire had done to their predecessors, these monks decided to join forces with the Resistance. A new line of droids also brought the Resistance the help it needed. With the combination of these many factions, the alliance set off to battle the First Order, their main goal at the moment being to take down Luke’s traitorous students. This first conflict saw a large group of Resistance fighters traveling to Felucia, a marshy, humid planet in the Outer Rim. The First Order seemed to be creating their own base here, with Jasen Marow leading the charge... Rules: 1. No godmodding or taking control of anyone else's character without their permission. Either one of these will result in a warning, or potentially even removal from the roleplay. 2. Romance, violence, and swearing are allowed, but keep it at a PG-13 level. 3. I won't put a limit on the amount of characters an individual can use, but please keep it at a level that you can control and that I can manage. 4. Any Star Wars race is welcome for your character so long as it's reasonable and fits the character's role. 5. I am limiting the total amount of Jedi (the remnants of Luke's students anyway) to 4, including Aerik. The remaining three spots will be determined on a first-come first-serve basis. Anyone who wants to make a Jedi past this point must check with me to determine if I will allow their Jedi into the game. 6. If you go too long without posting, I may give you a warning. I understand being busy and not having much time to post (I often fall into the same boat), but if you know you will be busy ahead of time, please let me know so we can work something out. 7. If you have any further questions, feel free to ask me! I want this to be a smooth experience for everyone. Character Sheets: Name: Gender: Age: Appearance: Race: Faction: Bio: Weapon: Ship: (If applicable) Additional information: Factions: Each player will be able to take on a different faction. These would all be allied with the Galactic Republic, and each member would aim to assist in destroying the First Order. Resistance Fighter - a soldier in the newly formed Resistance. These soldiers may not be strong in the ways of the Force nor wield Lightsabers, but they can be deadly with a blaster and the right ship. Resistance Fighters are generally skilled pilots who are good with machinery and blaster weapons. Jedi - a former student of Luke Skywalker. While Kylo Ren caused Luke to cease his training, a few remaining students scattered and joined in the fight led by the Resistance. These students would not be fully trained, but are still knowledgeable in the ways of the Force and handy with a Lightsaber. Only a very small amount survived Ren’s massacre, but those who did have joined the battle once again to find their master and defeat their former brother. Bounty Hunter - a mercenary hired by the Resistance to help in the battle with the First Order. Bounty Hunters are typically ruthless and only care about the reward at the end of the mission. The Resistance doesn’t necessarily trust them, but hard times called for outside help. Bounty Hunters are typically good with explosives and stealth, though it varies based on the person. Guardians of the Kyber - a monk who has taken on the ancient traditions of the Guardians of the Whills and is devoted to the ways of the Force. While they are not nearly as force sensitive as Jedi, they have a deep understanding of how the Force works. Most are equipped with lightbows, ranged weapons similar to Bowcasters which can also be used as staves if necessary. Droid - A droid who helps in the battle against the First Order. Droids are typically used for maintenance, although mechanized soldiers have been used before. Droids still tend to play a support role, but they are becoming an increasingly important part of the Resistance’s battle against the First Order. My own sheets: Name: Aerik Relam Gender: Male Age: 19 Appearance: Aerik is a tall, slightly muscular young man with short, neatly trimmed black hair and green eyes. He wears the standard robes of a Jedi at all times. This robe covers a scar on his chest; the scar was received during a lightsaber battle, and was the mark of a nearly fatal attack. Race: Human Faction: Jedi Bio: Aerik was born in the bustling city of Coruscant, after the Empire’s rule over the galaxy. Despite the noise of the city, he was fairly quiet and spent his time meditating. He learned at a young age that he had a strong connection to the Force. He learned more about it and the long history of the Jedi, and eventually found the chance to become a disciple of Luke Skywalker, the legendary Jedi Master who played a central role in the fall of the Galactic Empire. He was eager to learn with someone as powerful as Luke, and left as soon as possible: he was 10 years old at the time. The next 7 years of Aerik’s life were spent practicing with his own Lightsaber and learning the ways of the Force with Luke. Luke took him in as a sort of second-in-command of the school due to his incredible growth over the years. However, Luke never allowed Aerik, or any of his other students for that matter, graduate to the title of Jedi Knight. Even though Aerik was certainly the most talented, Luke felt that he still had much more to learn: he was hesitant when it came to actual battles, and Luke knew that Aerik seemed to keep a few secrets. Of course, both were true. In sparring duels, Aerik tended to hold back and not show his true potential. He seemed to be trying to avoid harming his comrades, but it sometimes ended with Aerik himself being harmed. Luke feared that his hesitation could lead to his downfall if he held back in a real fight. Aerik also kept a secret relationship with Lila Zaless; while romance was no longer forbidden within Luke’s circle of Jedi (the man even had his own wife), Aerik did not want this relationship to interfere with both his image with the other students and his own work as a Jedi. Aerik was 17 when Ben Solo betrayed Luke and the other Jedi and killed most of Aerik’s comrades. While this event pained him, it became even worse when Lila rose her saber against him. The two dueled, although Aerik’s reluctance to battle led to him nearly dying. Aerik now has a permanent scar on his chest as a reminder of her betrayal. He has since gathered the few remaining Jedi and asked General Leia Organa if they could stay with the Resistance. Him and the others assist on missions to return the favor, but Aerik won’t consider his debt paid until the First Order has fallen and Lila is back at his side. Weapon: A blue lightsaber Ship: N/A Name: Kira Taris Gender: Female Age: 21 Appearance: Kira has brown hair that reaches down to just below her shoulders, but she usually ties it back into a ponytail when at work. She generally wears the usual Rebellion pilot uniform, though the emblems on the helmet are blue instead of red. Race: Human Faction: Resistance Fighter Bio: Kira is the daughter of two former members of the Rebellion. She spent much of her childhood listening to the stories of the old battles between the Rebels and the Empire, and was fascinated by the Rebels' ingenuity and skilled leaders. In particular, the tales of the Rebel pilots interested Kala. From a young age, she decided that she wanted to be a pilot. Even if she didn’t fly fighter ships such as X-Wings, she gained a sense of freedom while flying. She focused on learning about flying various ships, and by the time she was 17, she gained her pilot’s license and learned how to fly an X-Wing to defend her home planet of Hosnian Prime. However, her life took a very different course once Kylo Ren defected and the First Order began to rise. Kira joined the quickly growing Resistance and left Hosnian Prime. She was inducted into the new Blue Squadron, and her talents were very helpful in the many battles the Resistance wound up in. However, in one battle, the rest of her team was shot down by enemy TIE Fighters, bringing an end to the Blue Squadron. Kira continues fighting, now drifting between different teams to find a proper fit. The loss of her teammates was difficult for her to deal with, although she’s used the tragedy to push herself harder than before so she can protect the people she flies alongside. Weapon: Kira carries around a small blaster pistol in case she winds up in a skirmish outside of her ship. Ship: An X-Wing with blue stripes as opposed to red.

And the movie I'm most excited for this year finally has a title. 325 days until The Last Jedi!

Akame - Karakura Town With Jack defeated, Akame was able to relax a little bit. Her grip on the Murasame loosened, but she remained vigilant in case Jack had any remaining tricks up his sleeve. He seemed to still be speaking with them, and asked the team to take along the strange orb that he referred to as an egg. "He says it's an egg, but it doesn't look very tasty..." Akame muttered as she studied it. "What do you all think? Should we take it along?" The strange crystal also caught her attention, but she felt that Jack's egg was an equally pressing matter. City Z - Sarada "Yeah, right, Boruto. You had a lot of people there to help you fight him," Sarada sighed and shook her head. "Don't mind my friend here, he loves to show off," Sarada informed the others. "That being said... I wouldn't mind sparring with you all, either. I need all the training I can if I'm going to become the next Hokage!" Just then, the odd crystal was found. "Huh... I have no clue what that is. I've never seen anything like it before," she muttered to herself, trying to determine what it could be. She listened to Boruto's suggestion. "You might be right, Boruto... That's the best lead we have right now, anyway."

I can't wait to play as Mr. Bropo!

Pokemon games have come out a week later in Europe for a while now presumably because some European retailers sold X/Y a week early and everything leaked online as a result. North America had to wait 2 years for Xenoblade (Europe only waited one) and there have been other recent Nintendo games that we got long after Europe (Yoshi's Woolly World gave us a six month wait after Europe for no reason, and I'll leave out the long list of Virtual Console games we waited a year to see ported over). I don't see why we need to be punished with a late release of Xenoblade because Pokemon took a week later to come to Europe, they're not related and it doesn't fix anything. We'd be better off just tossing out the idea of delayed releases and getting worldwide launches for more games. That way, no one has to wait any longer than anyone else.

The elves.

Oh yeah, that's right. That should be fun.

Is that one in Part 2?

We can be our own little "Very early JoJo" discussion group or something like that. Even though you're caught up with the anime and I'm just watching along with Toonami. ._. I get the Dio and the "To be continued" memes now so that's pretty great.

There should be a pit in the ground on the southwestern part of that continent. The next dungeon's there, but you'll want to prepare because it's a really tough dungeon. Definitely bring a lot of Pures (Or Antidoes in the remake if I remember corerctly), a lot of enemies there can poison you.

I'd like to join in the discussion here, but I'm just on part 2, so... not much I can contribute here sadly. I will say that I'm liking it so far. I'm hoping that the next two parts get dubbed soon, I don't want to switch languages and I'm generally a dub-only guy, so having to wait ages to continue would really suck.

What's the last thing you did? The game's a lot more cryptic with where you need to go to progress the game, that's how games were back in the NES days.
