Star Wars - The Force Awakens (spoilers should be hidden)

So, you came here to complain, state that you didn't like it, won't see anything Star Wars again, but have no intention of explaining why you hated it. soo very conductive to a discussion.

Or just read in general. The more you read, whether it be critically acclaimed or just plain regular good books doesn't matter - The more you read, the more language sneaks into your head.

We've also found that repetition of any sort, when not used to make a special point, is impractical, be it framing dialogue, at the start or end of sentences, specific words, etc.

Coruscant Sacked: Aftermath

~| 15:12 GST - 15:31 |~
~| Aboard the Kaggath, Engineering deck 02 |~

It appeared to be an ordinary day for Lani as she was tasked with maintenance on the tractor beam. The thing hadn’t been checked since two weeks before the initial foray onto Coruscant and was long overdue for basic maintenance. The Corporal who was initially assigned was lax in their duties and was punished accordingly. Now looks like I have to clean up the mess that wretch has left me... Petty Officer thought to herself as she checked on the terminal to assess the damage. Well looks like this will take a day to fully get back to optimal efficiency she thought to herself begrudgingly as she loathed lengthy maintenance work but it needed to be done to not invoke the wrath of her superiors. Within a few moments the tractor beam was down and with that she went to work oblivious to what she had potentially enabled.

It so happened that the air ducts above that particular location were not empty. In fact, the vent just above and behind Petty Officer Lana’s head held the small countenance of the small droid known to some as Navi. After visiting the prison complex without the pleasure of being truly reunited with its master, he had left the area, hoping to find a way for Xid to depart this place. Analysis of the Ship systems indicated it was not a healthy place for his master.

It had taken Navi hours of searching to find anything useful. The ship systems were too secure to easily sabotage. He had searched the vessel for many hours, hoping to find a way past the security, all without success. It might have been chance that led him here, to a smaller control room on the engineering deck. He looked out through the vent, focusing one of his lenses upon the large monitor before the human technician working there.

“Tractor beam control” was the text on top. That immediately drew his interest. If his master was to get out somehow, disabling that system would change the odds of a successful escape from 1:324522 to 1:4823. He began the calculations for how he was to subdue the human and seize control of the system. That was the logical choice.

As some of his processors calculated that, he kept reading the text on the monitor. “Initiate full maintenance cycle? Yes / no” he read. Had he had a mouth, he would have smiled. That was just what his master needed. He prepared to force the vent open, subdue the human with a carefully aimed liquid cable shot and activate the maintenance cycle when the human pressed the button to activate it.

Navi stopped his action just as he was about to slam his legs into the vent, his small mind realizing it was no longer necessary. A plan began forming in his mind. He quickly recorded what the monitor stated as a simple holo, then chirped once before realizing that was a bad idea. The system would be down for maintenance for the next 30 hours. More than enough to get his master out. That was the most important thing.

Before the human below could realize where the noise came from, he scurried off down the air duct, seeking one or more of the escape pod corridors. The odds of getting to those safely were 261.03% better than the odds of securing a vessel in the ship’s hangar. He would have to map a safe route from the prison as well. He had much work to do and only 30 hours to do it in.

@Kentsukan PM'd you a review.

We don't have a 1x1 or a small group RP, but if you want to learn advanced and more Star Wars @Xylin, we can invite you to our large-group Star Wars RP, Coruscant Sacked: Aftermath. Its been going on for a while now (7 months + being a reboot from oldGuild), but it is designed to make it easy for people to join in at any time.

We make it a rule for ourselves to welcome any who seek to improve their knowledge of lore and improve their skills in writing. Its not a fast-paced RP, and we also have a "rule" of sorts concerning RL - It always comes first. So long as someone gives notice, we won't mind an absence of virtually any duration due to RL. The pace is fairly slow, so you need not worry about having limited time.

Star Wars: Revanchism (Mandalorian Wars)

We see you rehashed revanchism, @HeySeuss?

We don't have resources to join this time either, but we can still highly recommend this RP.

@Gekidami because not everyone has seen it. Especially true that was when we first created this thread on the 16th.

#1

Most of all, we feel facts are unknown about the pair. It was refreshing to see someone speaking of "the lure of the light side" instead of "the lure of the dark side"

#2

We believe the answer is "yes". Both of them are in charge, neither controlling the whole. But some parts hint at the first Order being somewhat more powerful, but not powerful enough to simply squash the republic. We suppose that the First Order and the Republic have some sort of truce, that both acknowledge the other (because of a lack of choice).

The Resistance, from what we understand is those who fight the first order. They're supported in secret by the Republic.

#3

We believe that they went that way because turning an entire planet into a weapon is definitely within the parameters of the rule of cool. We do hope they do not create yet another supersized weapon in episodes 8-9, though. Then it would be getting ridiculous.

#4

Most likely not.

Coruscant Sacked: Aftermath

The more time is used prior to the escape attempt being launched, the less we'll have to gloss over in there.

We could've done another single-post timeskip, but we really don't like them, as they feel too much like railroading people into a single scene.

It is much better for people to gradually use more time in their posts.

To offer some suggestions for how people can spend excess time: (these are fairly neutral, less likely to provoke Sith)
Sleep (torture and such is exhausting)
Meditation
Exercise (physical)
study
practice with the Force

We've got 30-31 hours to catch up, and there's no need to be stingy in using time. How you do it is up to you.

Of course, you could also do stuff like trying to escape, trying to annoy the Sith, etc.

Xid also is willing to teach people to use the force upon technology to manipulate it. While the doors to the prison turbolifts are fairly simple to open, you can bet safely on the fact that not all doors will be so easy. The escape attempt will involve passing doors/barriers that are meant to be secure.

There's also that practice lightsaber lying in one of the bunks. Modifying that to be fully operational might aid in the escape.

Its good, @Gowi.

Just wait for a certain someone to speak about his prey.
