In terms of interest Heat can I have the top smuggling hold beside my quarters to still be a secret? Have the imps know about the other one. Also whoever desgined the interior forgot two important rooms, the refresher(shower) and the head!

Yeah, sure.

I see bathrooms but no showers, that's odd. Though those dark colored rooms with the grey dots could be shower stalls.

Corran Halcyon Human (Corellian) 25Male Typical excursion gear in the image above, only difference is when flying he loses the trenchcoat and will typically move around the ship without it on, however refuses to leave the ship without it claiming that it is his lucky jacket. In terms of other clothes he doesn't have a wide variety, most of his clothing is identical save for a few different shirts. Typically as a well, ex-Smuggler most of his clothing is pretty standard and almost his trade mark. About 6'2 (Shorter than me, silly Corran) No idea what an acceptable weight is here.1x Westar-35 blaster pistol. Commlink, Chronometer, BARC-Speeder, originally owned the Saber. Red and Black R-3 series Astromech with an R-2 headdome to try and conceal the model nicknamed "Chuckles". Quick Witted and Cocky, however despite this he's also caring for his friends and definitely has a concious, cares about collateral damage and what not. He's quite trusting, with everything but his ship and has a live and let live attitude that his very nearly got him killed sometimes but at the same time has got him out of serious scrapes. The kind of person who can make friends easily just from talking to them and can remain friends with them for a very long time, a knack that's useful for finding out information he probably shouldn't really know. Despite this he can be quite arrogant sometimes depending on the situation, and more importantly while it takes a lot to set him off he has a hell of a temper. While he is good at masking his emotions and appearing joyful and lighthearted most of the time if he truly gets annoyed he just needs to hit something. Usually an inanimate object but you can never be too careful. -Exceptional Pilot-Reasonable Marksman with a Blaster Pistol-Mechanically gifted-Tactical Thinker-Can hold his alcohol - Not too skilled in this, but that's what he has R3 for. -No real combat skills without a vehicle, other than with his blaster.-Tends to annoy people without realizing-Tends to not think about the bigger picture-While tactical he doesn't really plan ahead, just on the fly.-Really stubborn.Born on Corellia his father like many others found employment through the Corellian Engineering Corporation, his father being used to test the occasional ship for defects and putting new classes of ships through their paces. It was during this time that Corran learnt how to pilot a ship, quite often managing to hitch a ride along with his father through one way or another. Being a core planet the Clone Wars never really affected him, while he had always shown a degree of compassion it was simply something that didn't effect him and like many others when the New Order rose under Palpatine as Emperor he didn't really notice a difference. Whether it was the Republic or the Empire he had a need to get out into the wider galaxy and travel. So at the age of eighteen rather than joining CEC like his father wanted him too he joined CorSec.Training as a pilot his head start in life soon got him recognised, him getting recognised got him noticed and him getting noticed got him into the Imperial Navy. It was an unseen change of pace however he welcomed it. Working through the Academy on Cardia while he lacked in the theory classes when it was time to get practical he excelled ,it was his natural ability in the cockpit that got him through the Academy and into the Imperial Fleet with the grades he had been getting. Though like many Imperials the Truth on what was happening was not what he expected. True he thought in valiant battles against Pirates, though quite often he found himself and what later became his squadron employed against civilian targets, riots of non-humans who felt under-represented under the New Order. His view on it began to fall apart.After a particularly gruelling mission under the command of the ISB he defected. Waiting until the chaos of a battle to make his escape deep within an asteroid belt that had been frequented by pirates. Managing to barter for safe travel in exchange for his TIE fighter. Making his way back to Corellia he told his Father what had happened, and telling him that he'd never be able to return. To this end they staged the theft of a new YT-1300 off the line, built heavily modified for speed and with weapons turrets despite the restrictions. Obviously for some wealthy client.Over the years he became renowned as a smuggler taking contracts in the outer rim usually to avoid Imperials, though if the pay was good enough he would quite often pass through Imperial Space or even pick up and drop off cargo in it. During this time he honed his mechanical skills, many of the Sabers original panels removed as wiring became exposed, he quickly swapped appearances for speed at least internally. Until one time upon travelling within Imperial Space he had been using a civilian transport ship as cover, being attached to its outer hull. When the Imperials noticed his vessel despite the fact that this trick had worked many times on them (He believed the Captain of the ship had double crossed him). The Imperials threatening to blow the civilian ship and space all of its occupants he surrendered himself and his vessel. Though was given a choice, his ship would be used to better the Empire and he could go with it or go serve the sentence in prison. He grudgingly accepted as the Imperials got to work on the Saber, remodifying its interior and cleaning it up (Much to Corrans distaste) and no doubt placing several tracking devices on it.What really got him was the fact that he wouldn't even be in charge! He'd answer to some bounty hunters..

Accepted.

Star Wars: For a Few Credits More

My own character, I don't intend him to be the ship's captain, I don't think he's suited for a leadership role. Someone else can go for that.

Koren Valcato

Species: Zeltron

Age: 26

Gender: Male

Appearance: Like many Zeltrons, Koren is physically attractive. His skin is a light red color. He possesses a defined jawline with high cheekbones and noticeable dark blue eyes. His dark blue hair is cut clean and short, his face void of any facial hair as well. A scar sits right above his right eye, it cuts into his eyebrow and the eyelid, ending jusst below the eye. He is in great physical shape, his body showing that.

Height: 6'0

Weight: 175 pounds

Apparel: Koren wears a lightweight armor, it is made of leather weaved with several types of metals. It offers solid protection against blasters, blades and explosives. While nothing extraordinary, it gets the job done. Out of combat he sticks to basic comfort clothing, slacks, boots and sleeveless shirts which show off his arms.

Weaponry: He uses a Model 434 blaster pistol, a common but powerful blaster pistol which he is very skilled with. His is unique in that along the grip are many red markings, almost doodles. These were added by Koren as a way to personalize his gun. He also carries a vibrodagger as well as several thermal detonators, ion grenades, stun grenades and smoke grenades.

Equipment: Koren has a grappling hook which is fired from a launcher in the right wrist of his armor. He also keeps a fibercord whip to tie targets up as well as his credit chip.

Personality: Koren is a narcissistic, strange individual, others have wondered if he is insane, but he claims he isn't, just a little eccentric. He acts in an erratic matter, often making unexpected moves which he claims keep his enemies on their guard as they don't know what to expect. He often has a large grin on his face and cracks jokes any chance he gets, which he will laugh at if no one else laughs. Due to him being a Zeltron, and his naturally gifted ability to feel other's emotions, he feeds off of feelings of love, happiness and pleasure while getting depressed at negative emotions. So because of this, he'll always tries to make people feel happy.

He constantly tries to get thrills, the ways he does this varies, sometimes he'll take the more explosive route on a mission, or one that involves leaping out of a moving vehicle. He tends to hit on any women around him, often with negative results due to his actual personality, though that doesn't stop him from trying. He claims he is a successful ladies man with many women he has dated, though if asked about it he "forgets" any names, often giving vague descriptions.

Skills:
- Koren is above all a great shot with his pistol, he claims he is one of the best in the galaxy, able to hit a moving speeder from a mile away.
- A solid hand to hand fighter, while not physically huge, he can take people down.
- He's a surprisingly good tactician, someone that always lays out a plan before a mission, considering all scenarios, often taking what he considers the most fun route.
- A great athlete, like many of his race he is physically fit.
- A decent pilot, while not anything special, he can fly a ship.
- Being a Zeltron gives him some special natural skills: Pheromones production, which enhances his attractiveness and likeablity (if he didn't have these he'd probably be dead by now). The other is a limited telepathic ability which allows him to project his emotions on others, as well as read and feel other's emotions. He also has a second liver which means he can drink a lot of booze (I guess that's a positive?).

Flaws:
- Very cocky, a total narcissist.
- Quite gullible, often falls for jokes.
- His personality is unpredictable, which will sometimes make people nervous around him as it seems that any moment he'll just go off and do something crazy.
- Can't stand negative emotions and situations, it saddens him, sometimes to the point where he gets angry.
- Falls very hard for women, to the point where it will distract him if they show any real interest.
- A gambling addict, don't let him near cards as he does not know when to stop.

Bio:
Koren was born on the Zeltron homeworld of Zeltros. He grew up in a wealthy family, his father an acclaimed artist, his mother a model. He hates to talk about his youth, though he does mention how much he loves his homeworld, he just wishes he could head back there, but was as he puts it "pushed off world", when he was old enough to go out on his own. He did something bad enough to get him kicked off world, though knowing him it was likely something like crashing a ship into the docking port.

He became a bounty hunter shortly after leaving his homeworld, learning under several well known men in the business, it lead to him joining the largest bounty hunting guild in the galaxy which he cut ties with a few years back, deciding he'd rather do work as a solo freelancer. In his early years he gained a reputation as a skilled gun fighter, and someone who would get the job done, usually in a very flamboyant way. One of his most notable missions as a bounty hunter involved him capturing an escaped convict from an Imperial prison, a notorious gang leader who returned home, escaping into the city streets, or so the man thought. Koren tracked the target down, eventually sneaking his way into a funeral which the man was attending, somehow in the process gaining an entrance to the open casket ceremony himself where he managed to lay down flash grenades inside the coffin, then take a seat near the target.

As someone rose to speak about the deceased man, Koren ignited the flash grenades, in the precious moments the flash had stunned those in the room excluding himself (he made sure to wear goggles which saved his sight), he grabbed the target, bound his hands and feet, then dove out the window, then climbed down the building, all while the bounty's gang members chased after him, the flash grenades the needed distraction which allowed him to escape the area and find his way back to his ship which he would use to return the convict to the Empire, gaining payment and notice of his skills by the Imperials. He was recently contacted about the gathering of paid men and arrived right away, interested to see what would happen next.

The OOC is up!

Star Wars: For a Few Credits More

A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away....

An unsettling silence engulfs the galaxy as the Galactic Empire rules with an iron fist, fear and terror its tools of control. Underneath this fist, whispers of a rebellion travel across the stars, these remain only whispers, unconfirmed rumors spoken by a rare few.

Imperial stormtroopers, the greatest soldiers in the galaxy patrol ever corner, the ultimate weapon of the Empire, they fight for their Emperor and the galaxy. Soldiers of fortune, those that fight for themselves and who so ever pays them the most, congregate aboard a Star Destroyer silent amongst the stars...



It is currently 4 BBY. The era of the Jedi has passed, battles are fought blaster to blaster, ship to ship, soldier to soldier. Many chose to fight for their own gain, as men (and women) who capture or kill wanted people or fight wars they have no true allegiance in other than payment. A select few of these individuals are called in to meet in order to discuss business with the Empire, some would call it "dirty work", those people are not wrong, but it is thrilling work in any case. The selected few are placed on a ragtag group which will run several missions for the Empire, in exchange for payment or other "favors".

Rules:
1. No godmodding or metagaming.
2. Proper grammar is needed, this is a casual roleplay so I expect at least a solid paragraph of text each IC post.
3. Original characters only, also no Jedi or Sith. No Mary Sue type characters, people have flaws.
4. No fighting or being a jerk on the OOC. If any disputes arise, PM me and we'll take care of it.
5. Keep swearing to a reasonable level and the romance (which is allowed) to a PG-13 level. Anything beyond that goes to PMs.
6. Please be active. If you're going to be unable to post for a time, then please notify me. If you lose interest in the RP and want to leave it then also notify me. I will remove your character from the roster and likely kill them off if you disappear without word for two weeks.
7. Please don't go making your own mission out of the blue, or like altering a NPC. If you have any ideas to make the RP more enjoyable, then post or PM me them.
8. I, as the GM, have full say in the RP, my co - GM, Sep, also has the same. If I am not here for an extended period of time (which I'll try to mention if that'll happen) then he is acting GM.

The Ship:

The Empire has decided to provide the team with a ship for travel. It is a modified YT - 1300, a common civilian ship. The ship, nicknamed "The Saber", is itself a light grey tint, its armament two laser cannons, one facing forward, the other a swivel turret placed on top. The ship's main strength lies in its speed and maneuverability, it's not meant to get into massive space battles.

NOTICE: Closed. No more spots to apply characters for are open. Check back later.

I'm interested, but is there still room?

Yes with you we'd be at 8 people excluding me. That's a perfect amount.

I'm dragging Enalais along. For my char would a smuggler being used to fly all the bounty hunters around work? Or should I double him up as some kind of mercenary?

Well the Empire doesn't like smugglers, I'm certain they'd arrest any they could find. So double up as merc.

I figured that the characters involved would all be bounty hunters, mercs and some criminals who are promised freedom from capture by the Imperials in exchange for working for them.

If you want me to. I was only mentioning that as it was a literal plan I was working on :P

Yeah well you seem well versed in Star Wars. :]

Also, looks like a solid amount of interest, I'll get working on an OOC tonight.
