Werewolf XXV: A long time ago...game over, Sith win,full role listing at 2030
 

…in a galaxy far, far away….(cue the John Williams music and scrolling words)
Episode –17: The Darkness Reborn

It is thousands of years before the days of Yoda, Darth Sidious, and the Galactic Empire. It is a time of birth for the Republic. Each day, new worlds join the expanding family of planets that will grow for centuries, and whose members will make up the Senate on Coruscant.

It is also a time of growth for the Jedi Order, whose delegates criss-cross through hyperspace in search of Younglings who demonstrate an affinity with the Force. The Jedi are also the bringers of peace. In times of dispute on the worlds of the young Republic, teams of Jedi are sent by the Jedi Council to arbitrate and resolve these issues. The Jedi grow more in number and in stature with each passing day.

However, not all is well within the Order, as vibrations have been felt within the force. Vibrations that none alive have ever felt before, but have been told of by their Masters, whose Masters told them, because it has been so long since the power of the Dark Side could be palpable, as it has recently become. The Sith are thought to be nothing more than a legend in Jedi lore, but as the stirring of the Force increases, so too do the problems around the Galaxy……(end of scrolling)

You are a Padawan Learner, having just recently completed your final trials to achieve the goal which you have sought your entire life, the title of Jedi Knight. You and a group of your friends, all at the same point in your training, but with various strengths through the force, are assembled in the Jedi Temple on Coruscant, when one of the Jedi Masters and member of the Jedi Council enters the room where you are all meditating. Heads bow to Master Saldana as he takes a place in the center of your circle. “I have conferred with the members of the Council, and it is my honor to bestow upon all of you the title and rank of Knight of the Jedi Order. However, my news does not come without some dire tidings as well. Our presence is needed in the Embleton system immediately, as the two races that inhabit the planet are currently involved in a genocidal war. All of us are to leave for Embleton as soon as possible with a Mandate of bringing the two factions to a negotiated peace.”

Without question, each of you rises and heads for the spaceport, your moment of triumph slightly sullied by the beckoning of your duty, but also slightly elated at the prospect of your mission. One by one, you board the cruiser that will carry you to Embleton, and as you pass Master Saldana on the gangplank, you each notice a more intent stare than usual from him, almost as if he is inspecting each of his new Jedi as you board the ship. You each take a cabin in the passenger compartment of the ship, as Master Saldana is the last to board. The ship is large enough to accommodate a group of your size, with a large common galley area and separate staterooms for everyone. Master Saldana speaks quickly and quietly to the Captain, but his words are audible enough for you to hear pieces of his orders “….something….not right….any problems…..must get to Embleton….” The whine of the turbojets increases as you all take seats in the galley, the Captain moves to the cockpit, and after a few moments, you feel yourselves rocketing skyward into the darkness of space. You do not know what danger awaits you on Embleton, but what you are about to find out is, you will face a greater danger than anyone has faced in millennia long before you arrive there….this is where we join your story.

May the Force be with you.

As with Harry Potter, knowledge of the Star Wars universe is not needed to play, but at points may be helpful. Any specific questions regarding roles will be answered in PM. DO NOT POST ANY COMPLETE OR PARTIAL PM'S OR INCUR THE WRATH OF THE J.M. (jedi master :))

This will be a pretty basic game, no point system or time travel or anything like that, just your run of the mill game ( i know my head still hurts a little from barkeeps rules), so i will start taking the sign ups now...as always, i can keep getting bigger if more people want to play.

I'm in.

I'll play.

Sign me up.

The force is strong in this one. In.

I'll play.

Sorry for having to pull out a few games ago, but everything has been cleared up now so I'll have time to play in this one again. Sign me up. :)

Need to get some stuff done this week. I'll be an alternate for you though if needed.

It's been a while since I was in one of these. Count me in.

Give me a light saber!!!!

I love this theme. In please.

I'll play.

I have never tried one of these before, but I think I'll give it a go. I'm in.

Careful stkelly -- you'll get hooked :)

I'd volunteer...but I was disappointed with the lack of time I had to put into the last one, and felt like I could have been more of a contributor (and there was at least one deadline I blew it on). So I'll just watch from the sidelines on this one. Good luck guys!

In

Should have more WW time so I'll play.

looking forward to this after taking a few games off

VOTE: Player to be named in slot #16

What, too soon?

:D

Ok, I think I can play in this one too. Work shouldn't be crazy for another 2 weeks hopefully :)

I'll play...and guess be cartman's 1st vote, but I'm sending one back at you then too.

I'll give it another go.

ok guys, here is the schedule i had in mind

I will post the main story around 1:30 EST when i get home tonight

signups will remain open until 9 am on wednesday, roles will be sent out during the day on wednesday

Night 0 will begin at 9:30 est on wednesday, ending at 9:30 am Thursday, and the first vote deadline will be 9:30 Thursday night

I was planning on playing through the weekend if people want, if that is too hectic, we can just have an extended day cycle. (we will use straight 12 hour cycles throughout the game, with a small exception on friday night, when the cycle will end at 10:30 instead of 9:30)

questions, comments, thoughts, lemme hear em now.

Count me in... another day in wonderland.

This one sounds good and I would like to play again, but will be out of town for most of the next week.

I'll have to get into the next one.

What the heck, I'll play in this one.

Meesa Don't Wanta Diy-A!

I'll give it a go if there's still room...

I'll play.

I'm interested

Damn, wish I had time to play this game, this one would be fun :(

I'm in, dammit.

Taunting me with Star Wars, you incredibly sadistic bastard!

Wouldn't that be everyone?! :eek:

Just kidding ;)

I'm really excited for this game to start. Seems like this is going to be a good group of guys.

Yes! and Jeeber is comin too!

Good luck everyone, hope it goes smoothe and plays out fun

Hopefully I won't get boxed like the I have last two time I've played...

Hopefully I will live long enough to figure out what I am supposed to do.
Now am I supposed to tell everyone about the PM that I got that says "You are a Sith..."

Perfect, you are catching on nicely young Jedi... :D

Hey man, I'm in......since you promised me a spot. :)

Cool. Vote Schmidty











;)

Hopefully, I'll be a good guy with a good role this time.

WTF, dude!!!!! :mad:



:p

Yeah, that's my line.

On second thought, take me out. I'm going to be gone the weekend of the 11th into the beginning of the following week, so I won't be able to keep up if I survive that long.

It's a date. Is Old Country Buffet ok with you? They have a great sundae bar.

I wouldn't worry about surviving that long Mr. W if you know what I mean....


:p

funny....i was actually going to try and run the whole game in Yoda voice, but i was only one paragraph into post 1 and it had taken me an hour to write....there went that idea

fixed

done, sorry you are gonna miss it. (if this game lasts til next friday, someone please kill me)

"raises hand"

Lost lasted through two weekends, hence my decision.

VOTE SALDANA

done!

mmmMMMmmm. Questionable this one is.

In hindsight, I shouldn't have started it on a Friday.

damn....we actually fell of the front page.....skydog must be thrilled (just a little joke there SD)

anywho...this is part bump, part reminder that night zero starts tonight, you will be getting your roles either sometime today, or between 9 and 10 tonight

Looking forward to it, and hoping I get a blue lightsabre :)

Excellent.

*whips out light saber to look at the pretty dark blueness of it*

Basic jedi knight here. Is that the blue or the red lightsabre?

Jedi Knight checking in.

jedi checking in

Answering the jedi roll call.

Nasty day/night ahead with work so I will be less active initially than normal at the outset.

I am just a plain old ordinary Jedi Knight, ready to go off to the Embleton system to put an end to this violence.

Jedi Knight checking in. And if we get to choose what color light saber we get, I'd prefer a green one :)

They come in green, too?

I know about as much about star wars as saldana does about lost. :)

I'm present and accounted for.

Hey, who stole my Ewok!?!

Ewok checking in. Or was that Jedi?

Another Jedi checkin in.

I think SD banned him...

Many Bothans died to bring us this Werewolf game. Let their sacrifice not be in vain.

<---ready.

Well, any Jedi would know that you would chose being you're required to make your lightsaber in your training...

Mine is purple, like Mace Windu, though sadly, unlike Mace I am just another jedi.

Not my little Ewok! :( The powers are strong in the Dark Jedi.

basic jedi knight checking in

Normal Jedi Knight with a nice blue Lightsaber checking in.

Thats right...*cough* I meant I made a green one during training....Where do you think my great great grandson Yoda got the idea for a green one?

Jeeber 1, Everyone Else 0.

My thoughts exactly. I was planning on making the same comment Jeeber made when I first saw the question, but as I scrolled down I saw he beat me to it. :)

Anyway, I hope my first game back is a good one for the Jedi, and I hope you are on the right side Ardent. We work well together.

Gotta go blue. It's a nice, tranquil color and Jedi are warriors, yes, but our primary role is to be the guardians of peace and justice.

So a blue blade on my lightsaber is a nice juxtaposition there.

Jedi Knight checking in.

Jedi Knight checking in, may the force be with you. I choose a blue Lightsaber

I sure hope I get Volunteer Orange.

Somebody's not familiar with Bre'r Rabbit and the briar patch.

Darn, I was hoping to keep my Scottish tartan lightsaber...

:D

I'm hoping Saldana lets me have the sandlewood saber that I just requested.

Woot! I am a Jedi Knight and I'm ready to bust out my light saber.

Is that from Winnie the Pooh or something?

Not quite, although Disney did adapt it, so I can see the confusion.

The reference was (keep in mind I last read these 15 years ago, so my recollection may be off some), Bre'r Fox is forever chasing after Bre'r Rabbit, who routinely gets the best of him. At one point, Bre'r Fox catches him, and Bre'r Rabbit pleads "please don't throw me in the briar patch."

Bre'r Fox, wanting to cause him anguish, promptly does that...'cept the Briar Patch is Bre'r Rabbit's home.

Reverse psychology.

I was born and raised in the Briar patch!

Please don't give me a Volunteer Orange sabre, then. :)

Jedi checking in. As long as my sabre's not luminescient pink, I'm, not too fussed.

dola

Yes, I realised that now my sbre will 'mysteriously' turn out to be luminescent pink.

Just a simple Jedi, simply checking in. Hopefully, thing game will go simply wonderfully for us Jedi. :D

stupid OOC question...how many posts per page do you guys view at a time...i used to use 20 because i thought it was more managable, but i am at 50 now, with the intent to be able to make page references throughout the game.
