based on this RP.

The Sith War with Revan and Malak just ended, and people from both sides came to the newly discovered planet of Cyphan to start a new life. Sometimes people would fall in love with someone on the other side. Sometimes they would sympathize with the others, or stop believing in the cause, and these people came to Cyphan, knowing that the Republic would never accept them or even fearing punishment.

The one who discovered this world, and who came up with the idea of settling it with people from both sides is a former Jedi Knight named Kale Durran, who married a Sith Assassin named Jenna Brek, AKA Darth Vindis. They teach what they call the Cyphan Way, that the Force isn't light or dark. The Force is life, and those are different sides of the life that creates it, both the benevolent and selfish sides.

Durran is trusted by most of the refugees, and wishes to found a direct democracy, in which all adults vote in rulers that only remain as long as they maintain a 50% or greater approval rating.

He is founding a town on one of the planet's large plains, near a crystal cave which is strong in the Force. There he will institute his government and treat everyone the same under the law, with the Force being treated as a tool, not an excuse to rule over others. His wife will serve as the local constable should the need arise.




As the conversation below clarifies, the plot will basically be us adapting to this new life, culture, etc.

Think of it as a western, but with Jedi as the Mayor, a Sith as the sheriff, and a gang of Sith trying to birddog the town.

Group dynamics and local trouble as some of the ex sith try to force others to follow them at first, then I'm not sure what I'll do.

@caliban22That, plus the drama.
Think a western, but with Jedi as the Mayor, a Sith as the sheriff, and a gang of Sith trying to birddog the town.

At least until that plot wraps up.

So we can take civ roles and just live? It's like adjusting to a new system? Or is it more like being frontiersmen and setting up base? Either way I'm interested

@SirkaithethirdEither way. Kale Durran and his closest followers will have only built a dozen buildings in the city, including homes, a cantina/tapcafe, begun work on a copy of the Jedi Temple on Dantooine (where he did his training), and a few shops like stores and a garage/parts store. They only have a basic landing pad.

Probably a little of both as you deal with Sith thugs trying to intimidate you in your clinic or something similar.




Now that I have one interest, I'll add a basic CS to the first post.

@Sirkaithethirdthis is set during the Old Republic. I'm not sure if the Trade Federation exists yet, but The Empire would refer to the Sith Empire that tried to conquer the Republic then collapsed.
Can you update it to reflect the earlier setting?

M@TheUnknowable@Sirkaithethirdalso, they would try to keep the planet's location a secret, so he would have had to known and be highly trusted by Durran or Brek and got the coordinates from them.

We have two freighters, a large trade frigate and a smaller "Ebon Hawk" style ship, to bring in supplies and people. Now we just need some colonists.

@Akserayep.
Maybe a sci-fi western set in the SW universe. Either way can work.
