Welcome to Gaia! ::


11/21: It is with formal notice that Star Wars: Post War Saga has officially gotten out of hand. While I'm gone doing my homework in college, many ambitious RP's are typing whatever they feel like, and it's really interfering with the planned story. Therefore, I'm declaring this RP closed until further notice. Here are a list of reasons.

Lack of organization. There are a set of rules I've established but they are far too lacking. I created a sense of freedom to allow for multiple scenarios alongside the main story, however too many of them are going their own directions. The problem with creating an RP as opposed to, say, a book or internet fanfic is that if you have your own story you are constantly interrupted by another story, or in this case sidestory after sidestory after sidestory. This cannot be accepted in a regular RP unless stated. Which brings me to this:

Potential shift to a guild made up of RP's instead of just a single one. If I'm able to create a guild based on this story I'll make separate RP's for those who want to create their own characters and make up stories that don't interfere with mine. It'll balance the flow of individual versus group scenarios, and also give us even more freedom to express our characters. And finally:

Needs a much more fleshed out story. This one I had in mind is set within the Star Wars universe, for sure, and contains a bunch of original elements that make for a different experience (most of which I cannot reveal until later). However if you guys read a lot of Star Wars books and don't have any clue what Sanctum Zero is, then I made an error. Most of the content in this story is from my own creativity, not set points in the storyline. Thus events that happen not logical to what was supposed to be in Mr. Lucas's ideas will cause a lot of confusion. Over my Christmas vacation I'll likely be reading the Dark Nest set of books to take a few notes.....perhaps more will come along too. But if not then I do not know what will become of this story. Jaina and Jacen Solo are the main protagonists of the next trilogy, not Kirin and Rena. To call it Post-War Saga is therefore misleading, unless a strange course of events somehow took place parallel to what Jaina and Jacen have done in their story.

In conclusion, if I could I would owe Mr. Lucas an apology for jumping too soon into making my own storyline without any research of what's supposed to happen. But since he is not considering making any more Star Wars movies, I will try my best to flesh out this entry as much as possible.

Updated 1/31 This thread may be moving to a different location under a new name, and with a rewritten story. I'll let you know if anything comes up. Thanks *Jedi bow*


A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away......

EPISODE I: SANCTUM ZERO


20 years have passed since the collapse of the Galactic Empire and destruction of the DEATH STAR, but the fear of war is still resting upon its laurels. Reminants of the Empire still remain, and are attempting a rather feindish plot to take back what they lost to the Rebel Alliance and its heroes Luke Skywalker, his sister Leia and Han Solo.

As the Republic of Couresant was reformed, Luke has since founded the NEW JEDI COUNCIL through training determined students. His nephew, Kirin, does his best to help support the council and fight back any further threats to disturb the force. His niece Rena helped reorganize the Republic and stands as an important figure to its officials.

Presently, however, a mysterious faction rumored to be one of the "reminants" has launched a surprise attack on Couresant. The unarmed Republic fell to its knees on the attack, and the leader attempted to make a deal with the officials. Refusing to approve what they mistakenly had accepted from the Emperor in the past, Couresant instead chose a different fate......
Update 11/15

I've got work to do, and I know this means I'll be missing out on what you guys are saying, but please try and take it steady while posting. (it's hard for me to read a full 5-10 pages between my posts) I promise I'll be back to continue the story around late December. Please be patient!

Rules:

1.) Gaian TOS
2.) Yes, the title and presentation are a bit lacking, but I emphasized on the story first, so don't try to bash it as a half-assed fanfic, especially in this early state. I'll have a better logo ready soon. Be patient.
3.) There will be a 30 character limit: 10 must be part of the New Jedi Council, 10 must be opposing Sith leaders, and the remaining 10 can be whatever they choose. Aside from that, it's all up to your imagination. Also be sensible in character creation. After all, we don't want a n00b saying stuff like "OMG MY CHARACT3R IZ SO AW3SOM!!!! HE RUL3Z WITH 30000000000000000000 MAX HIT POINTZ AND HAZ 10000+ SKILLZ!!!!" You want that, play Star Wars D&D or something.
4.) Though my character, Kirin, is the main part of the story, don't be afraid to play your own part as well. Do your best in accompaniment (or however you spell it), or better yet, create your own scenario! After all, the Star Wars universe is massive and full of possibilities.
5.) *NEW!* From now on I will not accept any profile until the spelling, grammar, and punctuation are at least readable. Remeber to add periods to your sentences so that it doesn't look like this huge line of text. Seriously I don't want to have to go and correct every mistake you made. It's tiring and distracts me from further progression in the story.
6.) *NEW!* It probably didn't end up in the TOS so I'm going to say it out loud: NO GODMODDING!! If you fail to follow this through three times in a row you'll be dismissed from this thread.

((Um, actually it'd be better off if you PM me your profile, just so we're not too disruptive with the story. OoC posts are very much acceptable though.))

((Go ahead! I have plenty of reservations..... xd

Alright, now let's get this over with.....))

Couresant......once thriving with civilization, has fallen into ruin. I could not believe this myself, seeing that the new council my uncle started was just in its fledgeling state. We were training so hard to fight for what we believed in. Now the Sith have their way once again; just like with the Emperor, only much worse. Key members of the council are still here, fortunately enough, but the majority of what could have been a new generation is gone.

But there's still hope, I kept thinking to myself. I know that there is someone.....who can help me win this battle. I just can't do it alone......

I trudged through the rubble after several long searches for survivors. None were Jedi. The council expected me back within 24 hours. I was long overdue. The air was cloudy from the ruin yet still breatheable. But it was dangerous. Not nearly as much as the attacks, when skyscrapers were being knocked down and Faction Troopers came out of nowhere shooting everyone in sight. Still they were looking for us. The last survivors of Couresant and the Republic who have built a secret base somewhere in this destroyed planet. There was not yet any clear evidence about the Sith being involved, as the Council members and the Republic have long debated wheter they had ceased to exist after numerous postwar threats. But I could feel it.....the Faction is the new Empire, and the Sith are behind it somehow......
I once saw through the force a black cloaked figure. Not Emperor Palpatine/Sidious, but another being. His face completely hidden beneath the cloak. He had a lightsaber ready. Who could he be, I wondered. Members of the Council told me nothing when I reported this. They didn't know either. The galaxy's future was as cloudy as Couresant stood presently.

But one of the members did hint it was something terrible. Anta, a member of the Jawa tribe (yes, he is a Jedi, and also the last of his kind after the massacre at Tattoine) also foresaw this. He said in his native tongue it was up to me to figure out the cloaked being. Luckily I had a translator handy. It's a neat little device you carry in your ear to translate other languages, even bocci (R2's way of speaking). What it basically does is pick up voice signals and translates them through automated speech into "human" words. Han Solo, my father, wore it to speak to Chewbacca, as did others.

I was still on my way back to the base. Suddenly I felt a pressence. The troopers were nearby. They have a probe droid, I said to myself. These driods were microscopic, however. Built upon the latest nanotechnology to prevent any sort of detection, and nowadays much less expensive than camoflauge. Those sneaky little droids would emit signals to the troops if they found someone and cannot be destroyed except by the troops themselves.

"He's here! Get him!"

I had my lightsaber ready. They were hiding behind the ruins, waiting to strike.

"SCREECH!!!!!!!!!"

A lazer approached, but barely missed.

"SCREECH SCREECH!!!!!!!!! BOOM!!!!!"

More came. I deflected the lasers with my lightsaber as much as possible. Thousands came, and I could not handle them all.

"Time to fly!" I decided. I flipped upwards to a broken walkway and retreated. The troops struggled to follow, so they called for backup.

"We can't let the scum get away! Hurry!" one of them said.

Just then some Hyper-Fighters appeared. Fast, skilled fighters armed with both lazers and bombs. They looked somewhat like the Empire's TIE fighters but red instead of black, and with wider wingspans to add more mobility. Their engines screamed louder and without warning they started bombing and firing. I ran as fast as I could, not looking back.

I could hear one of the pilots. "Damn, he's fast!"

"No time to think! We must approach him from the front!"

"Agreed."

After the fleet passed they came towards me again. I stopped for a second, then sideflipped before they could attempt to shoot me again. There was a small hiding spot I found where it was difficult for the ships' radar to detect.
It grew only more suspenseful as I hid in the ruins. The rubble was fragile but hard enough for the Hyper-Fighters to see. They didn't know any better, I thought. Not like a Sith would.....

Their engines shrank in the distance. I didn't believe they'd just go that easily, however. They probably detected the base nearby, which was both good and bad news. I was almost there, for sure, but now the Faction may be planning an attack.....

I lept out of my hiding spot to try and scuttle to safety.

Troopers!

I was smack dab in the middle of them. They pointed their guns at me. "Freeze!"

I raised my hands, at least pretending I was caught.

"Drop your weapon!"

I reached for my lightsaber......and I slashed right through the leading troopers' chest. The troops tried to dodge but feel to my saber as well. Still there were more in the distance.

"He's heading to where the base is! Follow him!"

Well that's what they thought. Suddenly a band of Republic soldiers came in and fought back.

"Where were you?!" One of them said to me.

I knew nothing I said wouldn't be an excuse, especially in the heat of battle.

"Out for a walk!" I responded.

"It's too dangerous! Get back!"

I responded. Luckily there were enough soldiers to fight back the troopers and they ran off eventually. I came to the entrance and found my sister, Rena.

"Quick! Hurry!"

I did. The surviving soldiers came back and before long we sealed up the entrance. Actually, it was the back entrance. The front was still hidden. At least that left an advantage.

"Thanks!" I said to Rena. She was blond with pale skin and had her white senator's robe on. It wasn't nearly as formal as in the planet's past republic. She hated looking "feminine" like our grandmother did. She resembled our mother more than anything.

"How did the search go?"

"Not good." I said. "I searched throughout the whole parameter and found no one."

"It's alright. At least you're ok."

"Yeah, but the republic isn't. The idiot probe droids found me. The troops know where we are hiding."

"The base is well protected. Don't worry. We'll escape eventually."

"Escape?!"

"Yes, we found everyone."

I paused and stared. No one else was here? But I felt it.....I knew there was a Jedi hidden somewhere.

"Look, there's no one else as determined as you and Rain. I would fight as well but the Republic needs me."

Rain? That little 8 year old? Unlike Rena, Rain's appearance seemed to resemble our grandmother, but she was just as tomboyish as her older sister. Sometimes I wondered why I was the only brother in the family......

((Yes. rolleyes I really appreciate that since I'd rather the story go on without too many interruptions that aren't OoC posts.

@Megamanx50: Sure! Be what ever you like as long as it can either be a Jedi, Sith, or miscelanious (however you spell it). Remember the Star Wars universe is massive and full of surprises.))
*Shadows Shiped landed and he had stepped out walking with his personal guard of three Siths and many more troops as they marched to where the Republic was hiding* and looked around* hmm impressive to say the least but I wonder if the decendent of Skywalker can hear me *and with that Kirin heard a messege in his head* come out and lets see who is better with the lightsaber young one or we can wait for you to become more skilled if you wish
