[quote=@Vhagar] An Initiate as in a Jedi Youngling? But doesn't that basically rule me out of any meaningful participation, since my character won't be fully force trained or trained with a lightsaber, and won't take part in the politics or any of the missions that other characters are sent on, and the storyline will likely not progress quickly enough for him to actually grow into a Padawan any time soon. I'm not attacking the role, I would just like to know, as if this is indeed the role I'm afraid I won't be applying this time around. [/quote] I'll open with this, a youngling can be really anywhere between the ages of 5-14 (14 at oldest, most initiates become Padawans at around 10 years of age). If you're on the older age of the spectrum while you're still younger than everyone else if you're worried about the use of a lightsaber or being weak in the Force that solves the problem. There will be room for other roles right now but this is the only one that I have right now. Also politics? Missions? Our Jedi will be trying to survive. We're going to explore so much more into what it means to [i]be[/i] a Jedi. What will they do when all they know is lost? A good example of this is [@Naril] and Seris. She may become a Jedi but isn't starting as one, no real Jedi Training. She's probably got the same amount of skill in the Force as a youngling and less lightsaber talent. The most I'd be willing to give would be an Initiate who has made their lightsaber and is on the way to the Initiate Trials. Though what I am wanting is someone with a very single point of view, raised in the temple doesn't really know outside the walls except what they are told. Has never had to fend without the order, never really been alone. One of many. I'm sorry but this is the role I have, as I said I can contact you when more are available.
