Name: Iric Kelrim Species: Zabrak Gender: Male Age: 40 Height: 2.10 m Hair: Black shot with grey Eyes: Green Birthplace: Iridonia Location: Currently above Kuat Affiliation: The Jedi Order and the Galactic Republic Hobbies: History, sparring Native Language: Galactic Basic, with a sparse knowledge of his native Zabrak. Other: The Zabrak have a long, proud history of service to the Jedi -- Iric Kelrim is no exception, a credit to his race. Taken from his parents soon after birth, as are all Jedi, Iric left Iridonia for Coruscant, cradled in the arms of the Jedi that would eventually become his master. He acheived the rank of Knight at twenty but did not take a padawan for many years, continuing to wait even after acheiving the rank of Master. Eventually, he accepted the affable human girl Anu Belka as his charge when she reached the age of ten and he the age of thirty-six. The Clone Wars erupted with the Battle of Geonosis on Anu's eleventh birthday. The news reached every corner of the galaxy. With a padawan too young for active service, Iric was assigned for a time to the garrison of Geonosis, to the security of Kamino, and later to the restoration of the Jedi archives on Dantooine subsequent to the Separatist attack there. When Anu reached the age of thirteen, the Jedi Master began to receive assignments to front line combat. He accepted the rank of General thrust upon him by the Republic, and led clone troopers on many worlds, taking part in the long struggle of the Outer Rim Sieges. It was during the long, brutal stalemate on Boz Pity -- a conflict that left thousands of clones dead -- that Iric's skill with security and planetary defense brought he and his padawan back to the Core Worlds. The Separatist attack on Coruscant demonstrated to the Republic that even the very center of Republic power and military might was vulnerable to assault. This, naturally, made Core interests uneasy. Fleets were sent to Alderaan and the Hapes Cluster. Iric was assigned to the defense of Kuat, the planet whose driveyards fueled the Republic's military, and General Vos took over the Boz Pity affair, his own army in tow. (And for those of you unfamiliar with the Zabrak people...here's a pretty good sampling of their racial traits and variations: )

Name: Mephisto Zork
Species: Human Gender: Male Age: 25 Height: 1.80 m Hair: Undecided Eyes: undecided Birthplace: Terminus Location: HIMS Berserker, Victory-class Star Destroyer Affiliation: Galactic Republic, Galactic Empire Hobbies: Undecided Native Language: Galactic Basic
Other: Born on the metropolis world of Terminus in the Core region, Mephisto Zork comes from a military family. Almost every generation in the Zork family has been in the Starfleet for the last one thousand years since the Republic colonized Genezee, a tropical world in the Outer Rim.
Since the pioneering days of centuries past, the Zork family has established itself as one of the more prominent families on Terminus. A relatively recent migration to Terminus resulted in a slow and cumulative rise for the Zork house. Their military background gave them contacts within the heavy shipbuilding industries; namely the Terminus system subsidiary of Kuat Drive Yards. Moderately wealthy by Terminus standards, they have long since purchased their old motherworld of Genezee and its surrounding barren systems.
Mephisto Zork is an average example of a member of the Zork family. A captain of his own small vessel starting at the age of nineteen, the Clone Wars has since seen his career rise along with the fortunes of Kuat Drive Yards and the newly expanded Republic Starfleet.
At the age of 25, Zork is one of the younger Fleet Admirals in the history of the Starfleet. The tumult of war and the growth of the Starfleet has seen millions of new officer positions open up.

A native of Bespin, was pulled into bounty hunting early. The Tibana gas mines were an excelent place for organized crime to pop up due to the value and relativly low security of the gas. When he turned 17 he won his first ship in a duel that he had been involved in. The Misfortue's Mistress, as he dubbed it, is now his primary mode of transportation after extensive upgrades and modifications, mostly to the weapon and engine systems.
A top bounty hunter and smuggler with over 100 captures and here-to-fore unbroken Kessel run speeds (Han Solo later beats these) he is someone that you like to have around, and hope to never meet in a dark alley.

Length: 31m Height: 17.5m Troop Capacity : 4 Passengers and 9 Prisoners Cargo Capacity : 75 Metric Tons Manufacturer: Corellian Engineering Corporation Type: pursuit vessel/cargo ship Engines : 4 Surronian A2-grade and 4 A2.50-grade Ion Engines Hyperdrive : Modified Corellian Engineering Corporation H2-1 Hyperdrive Weapons: 6 dual-laser cannons, 1 concussion missle launcher, 1 concealed projectile launchers, 2 ion cannons, 1 anti-personel repeting blaster, 1 tractor beam Other: Sensor Jammer, Sensor Mask, Comm Jammer, 1 74-Z Military Speeder Bike in cargo for overland bounties.
Was at "factory specs" when won. Additions include; 4 laser turrets, targeting computer linked to the cockpit for manual firing even when alone, 2 ion cannons, 1 anti personel gun, 1 projectile launcher, shield modifications to make them more resistant to ion cannons, boosted engine performance for speed and menuverability, 2 detention cells in the rear of the cargo bay, and an array of concealed smuggling compartments for hauling illigal goods.

Name: Riz Ossacks (Alias coming soon)
Species: Human Gender: Male Age: ?? Height: 2.01m Hair: Brown Eyes: Blue Birthplace: ?? Location: Wherever he wants to be (usually the local Cantina) Affiliation: Freelancer Hobbies: ?? Native Language: Galactic basic, but can understand all living things
Ris is a very popular force user, that dosen't seem to favor either side of the force. He earns his living, by serving anyone willing to pay. His secondary income is using his gift in the force to cheat at Pazaak, one of his all time favorite card games.
This freelancer has made enemies amongst both the Jedi and Dark Jedi alike, but both know he could make a powerful ally, if they could ever persuade him to join their ranks, permanently.
Since he is self-taught in the ways of the force, he does not possess a lightsaber, but a vibro-blade in his hands can prove just as deadly as a Jedi with a lightsaber, though he wishes to possess one, someday. Ris could have just as easily have taken one from the many dark jedi and Jedi he has slain, but would rather use one made with his own hands.

Well...ok, only two Sith at a time. So he may have slain Jedi as a bounty hunter or something -- which I like, because it shows he doesn't even have loyalty to the Bounty Hunter's Guild -- he def. has not killed Sith.
Dark Jedi in the employ of the Separatists, maybe, though...

YAY! new character! ;D
Gareth Acheranon (dragonsbane) Species: Human Gender: Male Age: 20 Height: 6'2" Hair: black Eyes: green Birthplace: unknown Location: was a menial in the jedi temple, now on tatooine Affiliation: himself and his friends Hobbies: martial training, diplomacy, simple engineering Native Language: Galactic basic
Gareth became known to the jedi when yoda was recruiting on his home planet. he was taken to the temple for preliminary assesment and in unkown circumstances shortly afterwards his homeworld was destroyed. While sith involvement was never proven, it is indeed suspected that theywere responsible. Gareth proved impossible to train as a Jedi, his powers were instinctual and while powerful, were random. the only continual effect his strength with the force gives him is a preternatural ability to heal and survive injury, poison, extremes of temperature or any other danger that might befall him. Gareth coped well with the loss of his homeworld and asked to be incepted in the temple as a menial and train in the jedi way of diplomacy. While he could not master the martial powers of the order, he became a skilled negotiator and learned to weild his prefered weapons- two small light-dirks mounted in the hilts of two taim&bek boltlances. skilled in gun and knife fighting, with mechanical expertice and diplomatic ability, Gareth soon became a personal aide to master Kenobi, performing maintenance on the Jedi master's personal craft and retrieving data he required from the great archives of coruscant. at the beginning of the clone wars, Gareth left the jedi temple to join in the war against the seperatists, becoming a corvette pilot for the republic. hearing of the destruction of the Jedi, Gareth fled and extensively converted his corvette for stealth, seeking out his old master, Kenobi. When he discovered him, Obi-wan counciled him to remain on tatooine and stay clear of both him and the Laarses. Gareth now runs contraband and smuggles supplies to resistance groups.
taim&bek boltlances: these small yet lethal weapons are cylindrical, the trigger being a stud on the barrel. they have a clip of 5 small self propelled 'bolts' which are essentialy rocket propelled micro grenades. the clip also acts as a pistol grip in case this is needed for accuracy or ease of firing. Gareth's boltlances have a small lightsabre-like device mounted in the hilt that create a sabre beam about 20" long.
the longsword, stealth corvette: Length: 58m Height: 17.5m Troop Capacity : 5 passengers, 2 turret crew Cargo Capacity : 150 metric tons (25 more in the absence of passengers) Manufacturer: Corellian Engineering Corporation Type: blockade runner/stealth corvette Engines : 8 TIE engines, mounted in pivots to provide 360 degree thrust. Weapons: 2 quadlinked taim&bek laser turrets in floating turret mounts. Silent thunder: a revolutionary ion cannon prototype, stolen by Gareth during his flight from the empire. they are silent, and the projectiles are invisible and do not show up on conventional scanners. however, their power output is fairly low and can only disable sub-capital ships, as they are too weak to penetrate captial anti-ionic shielding and ablatives. single fire oct-launching proton torpedos. these were instaled as a last resort measure against large enemy threats such as star destroyers. while not strong enough to destroy a ship, a direct hit from all 8 torpedoes could concieveably destroy a capital ship if the bridge or engines are hit. all of these weapons are primarily self defence weapons and the longsword is not a combat ship as such, however it can defend itself against fighters and small ships if the need arises Other: camelioline hull, giving visual cloaking. engine catalytic blockers, providing silent running and a variety of sensor/communications jammers and decoy launchers to distract potential threats. the ship is also mounted with a point defence system for destroying small asteroids and other debris. the cargo hull contains one slayn&korpril C-wing omnifighter, designed for atmospheric flying and escape.

Wow, therisnosaurus...I feel like going back and redoing my character intro -- you worked hard.
Dakota -- While I love your Sith name and the idea of a Gungan Sith, I must remind you of the Sith Rule of Two.
HOWEVER, the Separatists did employ Dark Jedi, such as Asajj Ventress and Sora Bulq. So...what is your character was a Gungan abducted from Naboo during the Trade Federation's invasion in The Phantom Menace as a test subejct for the bio-weapon used on the Gungan colony on the Naboo moon of Ohma Duun. When it was sensed by Darth Tyranus that he had nascent Force talents, however, he was employed as a dark Jedi....that's just my idea.

The 2 Sith rule means that there are only 2 Sith anywhere in the universe at a time. At the moment it's Plapatine and Anikin. What he's saying is that you can't really be a true sith lord, but you can be a dark Jedi employed by the seperatists.

not sure if you're being sarcastic or not , but I'm pretty much a rookie as far as starwars goes, so I used the templates for appearance/ship etc for my own ones. sorry if I infringed copyright or anything. my character is essentialy my character as he has always been- gareth dragonsbane. wildcard, naecently psychic but can't control his powers, instead focuses highly on martial combat and diplomacy and hopes his powers turn on at the right time. mostly he runs around with a katana, but I varied that to fit in with the story. He's an interesting character to play, an outcast who few know and fewer like, but it's a great character to RP

I assume you're talking to me -- no, I'm not being sarcastic. Your profile is really thorough and interesting, and delves into regions of the SWU that haven't really been touched on too much. I love it.
