You should look at my new account, I think.

@GoddessSophia ....I'm trying to decide if Charlie's the kind of person who would actually walk up to a complete stranger in the airport and ask them to come on a family vacation with him.......Yes.....I think he is.


Alternatively, it could be someone from his school who uses the opportunity to get away from their ridiculously high expectations their parents set for them. At least for the holidays. Just spitball'n for you lot.
@Subject Zero Alright :) I'll work on my plus 1 for charlie a bit later. Someone around his age :)

Edit-maybe a random person he just picked at the air-port last minute? If he panicks thinking his parents wouldn't approve of him coming alone?


Sounds like him and Ken think alike... given I think that was the "origin" I was given for my +1 the other day.
So people are doubling up on characters, huh?

@GoddessSophia @Gowi I'll have a female in the family that needs a plus-one if any of you are interested. :)


If people are doubling up I don't see why not for me to grab another +1 (if it is not naughty to do so). Feel free to drop me a line if so.
I'll be over here, working on the +1 and such...
And there's Charlie, the baby of the family, minus history and relationships because I wanted to discuss that with you guys first. How likely are the parents to have actually raised him? I mean after 9 other kids and running a large business etc, are they likely to pass him off to a nanny or one of his siblings or is he just left to raise himself? Basically, how involved are they with him?


Now I have no control here, but they seem the type to like "boarding school" as an answer to that question.

I love this quote, btw.
Also, HAPPY LATE BIRTHDAY (by 8 days. Woops) And happy birthday to you too Murdoc, not because it's your birthday but in this thread I have ULTIMATE POWAAAA and yeah, so, you know. Happy birthday and shit. *shrugs noncommittally*


December is the best birthdays. Anyway, my character is about half-done; so stay tuned or something.
I'll fluff with some detail, but the dialogue is posted for Fallen to use (since we're on a limited timeframe).

What was she doing here?

It was a question she had asked herself since her capture— when the Sith Troopers had bursted through the walls of her transport vessel and tested her mettle… so to speak. She didn’t have many answers for the question, even for herself; answers she wish she had. She wished that she had done more for the passengers that weren’t worthy enough to be pet prisoners like she had been— she wish she had been stronger, faster, smarter. But she had let them get hold of her and bind her with Imperial chains. How many had fallen to Sith saber and blaster pointlessly so? What kind of religion would slaughter innocents upon a civilian vessel?

“Balmorra, if my memory is correct… though it’s a bit hard to think clearly after that Sith Trooper hit me in the back of the head.” She admitted, moving her right hand against the spot where the blaster rifle had made impact with her skull. It still hurt… though it was more of a dulling pain instead of an intense one. Though it didn’t bother her much; she had been through far more body-breaking experiences and even training when she was younger and a padawan of Laureli Xchal. The mental strain of being captured had probably affected her in making her ‘weaker’ or maybe it was that she had been still recovering from her injuries at the hands of the Sith on the transport. It was the only logical conclusions she could make.

“I suppose me being here is like any other Jedi.”

She thought back to the transport she had been on for a moment, thinking to answer his question directly and simply.

“I was on a transport, the Enteliis— the Sith decided they liked how it looked, I guess.”

She looked down for a brief moment before returning to look at him. She wasn’t happy of her weakness; though she imagined Xid felt quite similar himself given his injuries at the hands of the Sith. Talija looked at his wounds, but kept her calmed and exhausted expression. She couldn’t imagine she would get much sleep on the Kaggath in the coming days. But at least she had a familiar face to put a name to and one she considered a friend as well.

“You look like you’ve been through hell, Xid. I saw the fight with the Trandoshan.”

Question: At 21 wouldn't he still be working toward his degree in Journalism rather than actually being a fully fledged journalist?
