"Hey."

Zirex turned to look at the person who had spoken and was somewhat surprised. He had been so focused on drinking whatever he could get his hands on that he hadn't noticed that the sentient next to him was of a species he didn't recognize. At all. He grinned widely. "The name is Zirex, pleased to meet you." He answered cheerfully. He turned to the bartender as he finally arrived and held up his hand to get his attention. "A Walk in the Phelopean Forest if you don't mind." He said to the bartender who stared at him for a moment before speaking. "You are aware that particular drink is meant for four people? You are also aware of the price?" Zirex nodded and grinned at the bartender. "Yes. Yes I am. The bartender shook his head slightly and took Zirex's credit chip once the Weequay handed it to him. "A Walk in the Phelopean Forest, Forty nine credits." The bartender turned and began mixing the complicated drink. Zirex turned to the member of the unknown species before turning back to the drink that was being mixed. His eyes widened in surprise as he saw the size of the container. He turned back to look at Sirka and motioned at the drink. "Based on how big that container seems to be, I don't think I'll be able to finish this alone, any chance you want some?" Zirex hoped she would accept for two big reasons: The first being that if Strakisssh and ZD-6R found out he had blown nearly fifty credits on a drink for himself, he was most likely going to be docked pay the next time they had a job, the second reason being he was always looking to make new friends.

ZD-6R was still monitoring the holonet channels when an display caught his attention. "Strakisssh." He said quietly. "A bounty has caught my attention. I believe you may be interested." The lizard man turned to look at the droid. "Dead or alive?"

ZD-6R began to save the information to his memory banks as he lowered the volume of his voice. "Alive. The bounty has been posted by the New Republic. The target appears to be an Imperial War Criminal."

"Name and last know location?"

Imperial General Hadrex Nevrol. Wanted for the murder of two high ranking Rebel generals during the Galactic Civil War. Additional charges include, kidnapping, assault and nine other counts of murder. Last known location is Nar Shaddaa. Target is considered to be armed and extremely dangerous."

"How much is he worth?"

"Thirty thousand alive, Five hundred dead."

Strakisssh simply smiled. With thirty thousand credits they would be able to take care of a great deal of their problems. They could finally repair nearly all of their gear, repair some of the damage that ZD-6R had sustained during the massacre at their HQ and possibly even get their own ship.

You may start wherever you so wish as long as you end up in Pyrite town.

To all those who missed it, the IC is now up :p

Pokemon Colosseum: Lesser of Two Evils

Pyrite Town

- In other news, rumors of figures dressed in what appear to be suits favored by Cipher continue to trouble residents of Orre. Duking, the man in charge of the Pyrite Town Colosseum is warning Pokemon trainers to avoid traveling alone when traveling between towns in the event Cipher may be planning a return. We have also received reports of black suited men appearing near Phenac City, attempting to shake down travelers. Local law enforcement is looking into these reports. The ONBS will keep all citizens apprised of events as we get more reports. This is-"

Shawn sighed heavily and he picked up the remote and turned off the television. "Figures Cipher would show their ugly faces around here again, doesn't it?" He asked as he reached down and and scratched his Houndour's ears. The canine Pokemon looked up at him and whined inquisitively, as though it could sense it's owner's disgust towards Cipher. Shawn smiled slightly as he looked down at Houndour before turning to look at his Beldum which was hovering over the TV. Just the thought of Cipher was enough to get him angry, the thought of what Cipher would do to his Pokemon if they got their hands on them was enough to make him even angrier. He took a few deep breaths to calm himself down before standing up. "Well, it Cipher really is back, I guess it wouldn't hurt to head out to Duel Square and see if anyone heard anything about this other group. C'mon you two, time to get going." Houndour let out a yawn as he rose to his feet and followed Shawn out the door with his Beldum floating directly above him.

Pokemon Colosseum: Lesser of Two Evils

Last character is going up now. Once he is posted here, I'll start up the IC.

My Hider

Name: Shawn ((Last name unknown))
Age: 19
Gender: Male
Class: Ace trainer
Starting region: Orre
Appearance:
Personality: Very calm and collected most of the time. Gets a bit worked up when the topic of Cipher or Shadow Pokemon are brought up.

History: Shawn was born in the Orre region and has never traveled outside Orre. He was old enough that he remembers both Shadow Pokemon incidents and his family has a grudge against Cipher after his mother's Ursaring was stolen away during the first Shadow Pokemon incident. Although the Pokemon was eventually returned after being purified, it was never the same. Shawn's family used to reside in Pyrite town but after Miror. B took over the town, they were forced out after speaking out against Cipher and ended up moving to Phenac city. After the second Shadow Pokemon incident, Shawn moved back to Pyrite where he can often be found watching battles in Duel Square. Recently however, he's been working on keeping his battling skills sharp with the rumors of both Cipher possibly returning and the mysterious organization that seems to be fighting them causing him to keep his guard up.

Pokemon:
Beldum
Houndour

"You know, I wasn't expecting this place to be quite so...fancy." Zirex said as he turned to look at his two companions. The droid known as ZD-6R answered by turning his optical sensors on Zirex in what could only be taken as a glare of disapproval. "Do not anger the organics here." The droid warned the younger Weequay who had an impish look in his eyes. "We cannot afford any more problems with the authorities or the imperials." The Weequay smiled and the grin grew even larger as he saw the bar ahead of him. He was about to bolt towards it when a scaly hand landed on his shoulder, holding him in place. He turned his head and glared at the large Trandoshan holding him in place. "Behave yourself," Strakisssh said in a quiet tone. "As the droid said, we cannot afford any more problems." The Lizard man reached in his belt and pulled out a 50 credit chip and handed it to the Weequay. "Stay at the bar. Don't cause any problems and for the love of the Force, don't try and hack into anything."

The Weequay nodded and sat down at the bar and ordered a drink as ZD-6R and and Strakisssh examined their location. Despite ZD's sensors informing him that no one seemed to be watching them in particular, the Trandoshan was still somewhat anxious. It had been a few weeks since the massacre at the StarBlade's headquarters and the two remaining mercenaries were still constantly looking over their shoulders. The Lizard man looked towards the bar and saw that Zirex had sat down next to a member of an unidentified species. "ZD. Keep an eye on him." he said quietly to the droid. The droid beeped once in conformation of the order and made sure at least one of his scanners was on Zirex as the remaining sensors locked onto a number of holonet displays in the room. He was searching for incoming bounties or other possible work that the two of them could do.

Pokemon Colosseum: Lesser of Two Evils

Most likely not.

Pokemon Colosseum: Lesser of Two Evils

So far all characters are approved.

Working on my characters now.

rawkhawk64: Do you still plan on joining?

My Hider

Name: Daniel Cross
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Class: Wandering trainer
Starting region: Johto
Appearance:
Personality: Cheerful and bright most of the time. When it comes to Team Rocket though, her personality takes a rather angry and cold turn.
History: Daniel Cross was born in the Johto region and for the most part had a pretty normal childhood. At age 13, she received her first Pokemon, a Chikorita and journeyed across the Johto region not as a trainer who wished to challenge the gyms but rather to just have an adventure with Pokemon that she could befriend.

After traveling the Johto region for nearly a year, she had a few encounters with Team Rocket who she grew to despise after meeting a number of trainers who had had their Pokemon stolen from them by the villainous organization. It was after that incident at the Goldenrod Radio tower where it was announced that Team Rocket had disbanded that she made a decision on what she wanted to do. She knew that eventually Team Rocket would return as they had in the past so she decided that she would follow every lead on Team Rocket, be it a fact or if it would turn out to be a rumor and travel to other regions to warn them of Team Rocket. It was a year later that she heard rumors of black suited men and women heading for the Orre region that she began her journey towards the Orre region.

Pokemon:
Bayleef ((Evolved from Chikorita))
Quilava ((Found near the border between Kanto and Johto))
Croconaw ((Evolved from Totodile which was hatched from an egg))

Second character to be posted later.

Star Wars - Lawless Galaxy

Strakisssh

Name: Strakisssh

Species: Trandoshan

Age: 28

Appearance:

Faction: What remains of the StarBlades

Equipment: Heavily modified A280 blaster rifle. Four thermal detonators which are rarely used due to the price of replacing them. one DL-7H heavy blaster pistol. Two Vibroknives
Skills:
Experienced combatant with blasters
Skilled with Explosives
Skilled at Melee combat

Weaknesses:
Somewhat lacking in intelligence. He's not a total idiot but he's not the brightest.
Very single minded. If he finds himself with two conflicting objectives, he'll go after the one he was assigned first.
Easily prone to violence.

History:

Strakisssh is a bit of an oddity among Trandoshans. For one thing, he does not follow the Trandoshan idea of the Scorekeeper. He believes that glory should be earned for oneself, not a mythical goddess who may or may not exist. From a young age, Strakisssh sought to earn his way in the Galaxy by fighting against worthy opponents. At the age of twenty, after an incident in a gambling den with an intoxicated group of Dug gang members, he was rescued by a member of the StarBlades, a mercenary group that had found themselves fighting against the Empire. After joining, he found himself fighting against the Empire in a number of battles and were victorious in nearly all of them due in no small part to Strakisssh's combat skills and his fondness for explosives. The Empire paid the StarBlades little notice until they ended up killing an Imperial Moff during a raid. After that, the StarBlades were upgraded from an unimportant pain in the rear to a primary target.

The StarBlades were eventually forced to retreat to their stronghold on Nar Shaddaa after a series of battles against Imperial forces. The StarBlades put up an admirable fight and were able to kill off the Imperial troops but at the end the only survivors were Strakisssh, a very odd droid with the designation 7D-6R and a Weequay by the name of Zirex. The three of them knew that more Imperial troopers would most likely be arriving soon and so were forced to flee into the Nar Shaddaa depths as they healed their wounds and rearmed themselves.

My ZD-6R

Name: ZD-6R

Species: Droid

Age: Unknown

Gender: Masculine Programming

Appearance:

Faction: What remains of the StarBlades

Equipment: One built in heavy blaster cannon in his left arm. Heavily modified Sniper Rifle. Built in advanced experimental targeting computer.

Extremely accurate with blasters

Weaknesses:
Very slow due to armor plating
Cannot repair himself.
Vulnerable to Ion weapons

History:
ZD-6R was created by a Hutt crime lord by the name of Gushenka on Nal Hutta who wished to create the ultimate battle droid to use against his rivals. Unfortunately for the Hutt, ZD-6R had somehow managed to develop his own set of directives and principles due to the Hutt disabling everything but his CPU while his technicians worked on him. At the same time, the Imperials learned of the Hutt's project and seeing it as a threat to Imperial interests on Nal Hutta and Nar Shaddaa, attacked the Hutt's palace and slaughtered most of the guards while losing a good portion of their attacking force. Gushenka was forced to activate the droid early and although ZD-6R was able to take down the remaining Imperials, he did something the Hutt never expected the droid to do.

The droid left. Despite Gushenka shouting commands to the droid to stop and return to him. ZD-6R left the Hutt's palace and simply began to walk the streets of Nal Hutta as his CPU began to delete programming that the Hutt's technicians had programmed into him. As more and more restrictive programming was deleted, he found himself contemplating...what should he do to make his mark on the Galaxy? The answer came to him moments later: Attack Imperial targets.

And so began ZD-6R began a series of attacks against Imperial targets on Nal Hutta and began to make a name for himself. After destroying an imperial spice warehouse and taking down a wanted Dug Crime Lord and his drinking buddies in a gambling den , he was brought to the attention of a band of mercenaries known as the StarBlades who welcomed him in with open arms. The StarBlades turned out to be everything the droid was looking for. Loyal allies. Technicians who were able to repair him and upgrade him to make him even more deadly than before. Eventually the Droid found himself thinking of the StarBlades as a family. But that changed when the Imperials launched a massive attack against the StarBlades in retaliation for the death of an Imperial Moff. Although the Imperial troops were wiped out to the last man, the StarBlades that had once numbered in the hundreds were down to three. Along with the other two survivors, ZD-6R fled to the depths of Nar Shaddaa to rearm themselves and heal their wounds.

StarBlades

Faction Name: StarBlades

Faction Classification:Mercenary Group

Faction Leader: N/A All StarBlades in leadership positions are deceased.

Faction Members(Players): 3

Important NPCs:
Zirex ((Computer specialist who was with the StarBlades. Last of the three surviving members.))

Faction Assets:
Ships: None as of yet.
Damaged Base of operations on Nar Shaddaa. Deserted at this time due to Imperial attack.

Faction History: The StarBlades were formed twenty years ago as one of hundreds of small Mercenary groups that operated in Hutt space. Not many people expected them to last but the difference between the StarBlades and the other groups was not a matter of numbers but rather experience. The StarBlades consisted mostly of combat veterans and highly skilled computer and vehicle repair specialists. The group continued to flourish in Hutt Space as they completed assignment after assignment and as they're reputation grew, more and more people joined them until they numbered nearly four hundred. But with the death of an Imperial Moff, the StarBlades quickly rose to a high priority target on the Imperial radar and were hunted across the stars until the survivors regrouped at their base of operations on Nar Shaddaa and fought to what the Imperials thought was the last man as the Imperials did as well. In reality, three of the StarBlades managed to survive the attack and surrounded by the bodies of their fallen comrades, vowed to avenge them by any means necessary.
