Unlike its predecessors, the R2-series and the R3-series, the R4 units were designed for life outside the pristine hangar bay. It was simpler, tougher, and cheaper than previous models.

An exemplary R4 unit, R4-F4 has seen a lot of action and as such has been repaired, upgraded and modified several times over its existence. As such, R4-F4 has been fully outfitted with a wide array of equipment listed below:

  • Akar-Deshu's Lightsaber
  • Acoustic Signaller

  • Arc Welder

  • Circular Saw

  • Extendable 0.3m Video Sensor

  • Fire Extinguisher

  • Fusion Cutter

  • Holographic Projector/Recorder

  • Intellex VI System with Mark V Plugin

  • Motorized, All-Terrain Treads

  • Retractable Fine Worker Arm

  • Retractable Heavy Grasper Arm

HISTORY:
__
R4-F4 started life like any R4-series Astromech Droid. Rolled off the assembly line, he was initially delivered to Coruscant, where the Jedi Order had purchased him for use in their Service Corps, specifically the Agricorps. However, fate intervened, and as R4 was delivered to the Jedi, the Clone Wars began. The Jedi were transitioned from peacekeepers of the Galaxy to Generals of the Grand Army of the Republic. Likewise, R4 was quickly repurposed from a humble farming astromech to a co-pilot alongside a Jedi Knight.

Initially serving in the Jedi Hangar bay, servicing both the Delta-7 and its successor, the Delta-7B Aethersprite-class light interceptors. R4, or 'Arf', as he became affectionately known due to both the sound of his designation and his enthusiastic 'bark-like' chirps, became accustomed to a wide variety of ships, including the later Eta-2 Actis-class light interceptor and the T-6 Shuttle. Due in part to a retrofitted Intellex V, Arf had access to schematics and blueprints for the entirety of the Republic's fleet.

As the war waged on, Arf was forced to leave the hangar and enter into combat. He flew numerous missions alongside Jedi Knight Quilan Vos. These missions took Arf to many corners of the galaxy and follwoing the fall of the Republic, Arf went into hiding alongside his master, eventually finding a new purpose in serving the Hidden Path.

Tragedy however struck, and Arf and Vos were eventually separated, Vos deeming it too dangerous to keep the droid with him and Arf was left in the hands of the Rebel Alliance bearing a confidential hyperspace route locked within his subroutines and carrying a token from his time with Vos.

Eventually, Arf ended up on the backwater world of Exaron, where he assumed he had been forgotten...
PROGRAMMING:
_
As an R4-Series Astromech Unit, Arf does not have 'Skills' but instead is programmed to maintain and repair all manner of ships, repulsorcraft and other vehicles. As a unit originally purposed for agriculture, he is knowledgeable in several planets' worth of flora and fauna exclusive to the Outer Rim.

Arf's primary programming is to solve problems and has been designed to pragmatically find solutions to any task assigned to him. Having worked alongside the Jedi Order, the Hidden Path and the Rebel Alliance, Arf has adapted to several different problem solving circumstances making him a very resourceful droid.
WEAKNESSES:
_
As an astromech droid, Arf is notably limited in forms of communication, mobility and overall sentience. While he is constantly underestimated due to be a lowly astromech droid, he is also overlooked and not respected either, seen as more of a tool than an individual. Like all droids, he can be instantly limited by a restraining bolt.

Ünterland

An anachronistic realm built upon cycles of rebirth, separated from the mundane world by the destructive realm known as Limbo. Unterland is a fractured reflection of the world 'above' and a land bathed in strange and powerful mystical energies. At one time, the worlds were one, and magic flowed freely. Still, eventually it was exorcised from the world, and the powerful Venari Council erected Limbo to contain Ünterland, walling both it and its magicks off from the world.

James Andrew Gordon was born to loving, if absent parents. His father, an artificial breeding technician based out of Calaveras, just south of San Antonio, Texas, spent most of his time driving across most of the Western States, rarely home throughout the week, while his mother was a first-generation immigrant from Rotherham in South Yorkshire, England.

A piano teacher, James' mother, Evangeline, instilled a love of music in her son from a young age, while his father, Andrew, introduced James to the blues, rock and metal. James had a natural inclination towards rhythm and timing. As a young boy, he was constantly turning every surface he touched into a drum. For his seventh birthday, he was gifted with his first drum kit, and the rest was history.

Throughout his teens, James participated in several local garage bands. As a drummer, he found himself constantly in demand and was able to play for a wide variety of bands and genres. Most of these amateur acts grew out of the hobby, but by the time college was calling, James had connected himself with other, more musically serious individuals, and they formed a real band.

This first band, 'Overcooked Parsley', would go on to open for several smaller acts throughout various dive bars in the San Antonio region before spreading out and playing in the likes of Austin, Houston and even Dallas. At the age of sixteen, James picked up his first bass guitar while jamming with a couple of friends. Once he had his head wrapped around the basics, he began to approach the instrument as though he was playing the drums while watching the guitarist for chord changes and positions. Using what his mother had taught him on piano and his years of playing drums, James rapidly advanced on the instrument, and after yet another band fizzled out, went on to become a bassist with the band 'Tea & Strumpets.'

Through 'Tea & Strumpets', James was introduced to his first wife, Poppy Caulderfield. The infatuation was mutual and it wasn't long before the rest of the band learned to knock before haphazardly entering the green room after shows or between sets. But the honeymoon phase was short-lived lived and the pair became increasingly volatile, often fighting off stage and squabbling over anything, going so far as to disagree with one another solely to fight. These fights always led to making up, in a manner that was just as loud and destructive as their fighting.

Thankfully, their tumultuous affair didn't stop 'Tea & Strumpets' from seeing success, and while the band was putting on shows in Vegas, Poppy and James snuck away in the middle of the night to a twenty-four-hour chapel and pledged their lives to one another.

They filed for divorce nine months later.

'Tea & Strumpets' would later cut their losses, and James was asked to leave the band. Returning home, he eventually made his way to Nashville, Tennessee, where he found work as a session bassist, tracking songs and albums with numerous artists. This opportunity would introduce him to Cooper McNevan, Colin Phillips and Lee Joel, who, along with James, would go on to create 'Caliburn'.

Caliburn was James' big break. The group moved from performing in dive bars to opening for the likes of Nickelback, Pearl Jam and Metallica. Before they knew it, Caliburn had other bands opening for them, and soon they were playing in sold-out auditoriums. Though James had always been fond of alcohol, his newfound fame led him to party harder and harder. Often, he was with a different girl every night, and the only time he was without a drink in his hand was when he had his bass.

First came alcohol, it was soon followed by cigarettes, then marijuana, mushrooms, and it only continued from there. From one of his many intoxicated states came the idea to go solo after Caliburn guest-appeared on an episode of 'The Vetern', one of ABC's many well-performing police procedurals. James and his agent managed to negotiate several further television appearances, including a dramatic role on a six-episode limited mini-series that put James in the running for a coveted superhero role in Hollywood.

In celebration, the pair ended up drunk, leading to James sleeping with his agent. A tryst which resulted in a child and James' second marriage to Evangeline Scott. Having built himself a fairly recognizable face outside of Caliburn, James attempted to launch a solo music career and left Caliburn.

His debut album flopped.

When James tried to return to Caliburn, they had already replaced him and James further went into drugs and alcohol. What was once at least somewhat hidden became more and more obvious, leading to Eve divorcing him and taking away any rights he had to his child. From that point on, James continued to make more and more questionable decisions. Desperate for money, he shot a pornographic film and nearly died due to the heavy combination of alcohol and sildenafil in his system. Passing out mid shoot and leading to the project being completely canned. Despite this, footage still found its way online and put the final nail in James' career.

Or so it seemed. Checked into rehab by his first wife, James completed a full stint in a rehabilitation center, somehow managing to escape criminal charges and emerged a few years later clean. He returned to his roots, working as a session bassist. Tracking numerous albums following rehab, he's been attending both Narcotics Anonymous and Alcoholics Anonymous in an effort to stay on the straight and narrow.

Meeting rising pop star Tamara Flowers through a tracking session, the pair hit it off almost immediately and soon became the tabloid relationship. Tamara encouraged James to return to his solo work and a few months later James released a song titled 'Demon in a Bottle' that went quickly went viral across social media. Riding this wave of renwed interest following his resurface, his new girlfriend and rumours of a new solo album brought attention to his previous one, which had gained a cult following and for the first time ever broke the Top 40.

Caliburn has even offered to have him join them on tour again, an offer James is still thinking over.

James is a professional musician, specifically a bass player though he's a capable pianist, drummer and knows his way around a guitar. Highlights of his career include performing with the bands 'Overcooked Parsley' and 'Tea & Strumpets' as well being a session bassist for albums such as 'Jagged & Spicy', 'Under the Falling Bridge', 'Love Hetz and other Joules', and 'Ride the Thunder'.

The highlight of James Gordon's career was performing with Caliburn, a several times Platinum band of which James was part of seven studio albums and numerous tours. He fell out with Caliburn due to a short stint in acting, along with a solo album 'JAG' that failed to perform.

After a stint in rehab, James has returned to working as a session bassist, most notably tracking Tamara Flowers' debut album of the same name, along with the follow-ups '2007' and 'Life of a Tortured Poet'. James has since rose again to the public eye due to a new single that went viral and anticipated of a new solo album.

He's slotted to re-join Caliburn on tour in 2026.

THE GIRLFRIEND
Tamara Flowers is a twenty-one-year-old pop star who has shot to fame in the last couple of years. Tamara performs as the front woman for the act 'InBloom'. Tamara and James became romantically linked shortly after she released a statement to the media that "<she had> been let down one too many times by men her age and decided it was time to go for a man instead of playing with boys."

THE EX-WIFE
Poppy Caulderfield was the lead guitarist and additional vocals in the band 'Tea & Strumpets' where James filled in as a session bassist in the studio before being invited on the road. The pair engaged in a self-destructive and oftentimes toxic on-and-off relationship before being wed in Vegas during a show. Poppy later filed for divorce, citing irreconcilable differences. Years later, she inherited the band, now renamed 'The Strumpets', assuming lead vocals and is touring as part of their new album release. She had been spotted at a cafe recently with James.

THE FORMER BAND
Caliburn was James' big break. A post-grunge phenomenon, Caliburn went on to go Platinum on at least two of their records, seemingly going from playing dive bars to overflowing stadiums overnight. Their music was featured in everything from the latest Tony Hawk game to sport anthems and even blockbuster movies. Including James, the band was a four-piece ensemble with Cooper McNevan on vocals and lead guitars, Colin Phillips on drums, and Lee Joel playing rhythm guitar and keys.

THE UNKNOWN CALLER
A persistent caller who has concealed their identity. No matter how many times James has blocked their number, they always find a new one. James changed his own number twice before giving up and accepting his harasser. Each time he answers, he's bombarded with a variety of voices repeating over and over, 'I know what you did!' while the backing track of his latest single plays melancholically in the background. James has moved forward with both legal action and the police, but neither has been able to do anything about the anonymous caller.
