[*]Please post sheets in a hider to make navigation easier for everyone. [*]I'd like Jedi and Padawans filled first before republic troopers, unless that Republic trooper actually has a specialist role -- don't make characters to just fill up squad leader roles -- the focus is on the Jedi and the characters that will be their companions. [*]Droids are allowable, though not HRD-type droids and all that stuff. The fun is the variety of cultures and strange quirks, rather than a group of all humans. [*]The preference is for alien characters or characters from planets with specific cultural quirks to reflect to the diversity of the Republic. There's a lot of near-human races in Star Wars that have little to distinguish each other. I'd rather see Durese and Twi'lek, Nautolians and Wookiees than a bunch of near humans with slight variations on their features. Zabrak are the exception, since they are very different from baseline humanity, and Miraluka, for example, are force-sensitive and blind, which gives them a very different style.[/list] [hider=Open Roles] [h3]Open Roles [/h3][INDENT][I]These are not the only roles available -- you can invent some, but these are slots for characters I would like to see played. Near-humans and humans are given less priority for approval than out and out aliens.[/I][/INDENT] [LIST] [*]The senior Jedi who is thrust into the strange position of aggressively pursuing this new and, to a degree, rather unfamiliar sort of war...and trying to reconcile that with what the Masters ordered and advised. Not in command of IRSOG-37, at least initially. [*]The scion of a famous Jedi family, powerful in the force, and perhaps rebelling against the expectations that they hold the line with the Masters by joining the Revanchists. [*]The vengeful survivor of a Mandalorian massacre, perhaps a Cathar (possible) that wants nothing more than to strike a blow back; this attitude is understandable, and to a degree it is easy for a Jedi to perhaps start to understand this 'nip the threat in the bud' argument from a perspective of personal experience as the war goes on. [*]A highly talented soldier in IRSOG, and a force sensitive with considerable potential, if trained, if convinced to overcome his issues with the Jedi. Perhaps somewhat dark-side tainted already, though he doesn't realize it consciously. [*]If possible, please try to PAIR characters or group them together; come up with mutual histories of some nature that create some degree of personal interaction.

[LIST] [*][URL=http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Twi%27lek]Twi'lek[/URL] - The head-tail chicks. A race that often finds themselves enslaved to others. [*] [URL=http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Rodian]Rodian[/URL] - A bizarre reptilian species with a comical look, but from a culture that glorifies death and hunting, often found in the fringes of space as smugglers, assassins and others. They look cute and harmless, and it's a facade they use quite well on the unwary. [*][URL=http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Droid]Droid[/URL] - The workhorses of the galaxy, often sent to do jobs to make organic lives easier, there are nonetheless some considerable surprises to be found among various examples of these programmed, self-aware machines. [*][URL=http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Wookiee]Wookiees[/URL] - Big, hairy, scary and often misunderstood, but highly useful. If all else fails, pull their arms out. [*][URL=http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Duros]Duros[/URL] - Blue skinned, red eyed and noseless, this race is known for their daring and as one of the first spacefaring races in the Republic. To hear the Duros tell it, they invented courage and the hyperdrive. [*][URL=http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Bothan]Bothan[/URL] - A furry humanoid race with vaguely canid features that are well known for the ferocity of their internal politics, their prowess at subterfuge and spying and their ferocity toward those they deem racial enemies. [*]Other races are totally allowed so long as I can read up on them at wookieepedia, though I reserve the right to turn down anything I think is too unbalancing.
