They aren't exactly shit, they are a decent fighter and can outdo many other fighters

Not really, they have a single engine, a pair of blasters and a cockpit to stop the pilot falling out... That's it. They are the most basic of basic fighters. And that was the point, so the Empire could pump out thousands-upon-thousands of them for dirt cheap.

Star Wars: Era of Despair

Fighters? Dude, the most I would want, fighter wise, would be a small cargo shuttle (About the size of Phantom) and maybe a single wing of TIE-Fighter's (They may be shit, but they are cool.)

I'd say he's probably wanting something no bigger than a Gozanti or a Consular Class cruiser.

Well, if you don't mind me asking, what's the problem with an Escort Carrier then? I mean, they are roughly the same size as a Consular. I mean, in Raid at Bakura, it's shown side-by-side with a Rebel Transport, and is not all that much bigger than it. (A rebel Transport being 90 meters, and is approximately 2/3 the Escort Carriers size, putting the Escort Carrier at an approximate size of 135m from bow to stern. Compared to the Consular at 115m)

I'm just saying, if it's still a no-go, then i'll bump it down to the Consular. I just love the Escort Carrier, and it's so rare i find the chance to command one T.T

Anything larger than a freighter is surely a no because full organizations including and especially military ones were destroyed. And I also mean just shils as well. Just about 99% of cruiser and up had to be reconstructed. Initially I immediately said no because it is Imperial. And I would expect someone of the jedi order to have been a Padawan, under a master. A master who was killed, therefore they have no lackeys. If you feel your character chose not to go into hiding while crime conttolled the galaxy for a year or two and therefore you gained followers, you must preaent an authentic background. One especially that Sep will agree to.

Define "Freighter." I mean freighter, in Star Wars, could mean anything between the YT-??00 series and a Mon Calamari Star Dreadnought (Which were repurposed Bulk freighters) Can you give a rough size limit?

As I said in the Bio, she has a bunch of Lackey Ex-Stormtroopers, who banded together with her, because the Empire left them to die, and they still wanted to change the universe for the better. What many people forget is that Stormtroopers aren't necessarily evil. They just work for evil people. They believe they are making a difference in the universe and changing it for the better, so, when a Jedi finds them and asks them to help her, and with little other options and a command structure that is in total chaos... Well, people make snap decisions to survive. As I said, inspired by Joan of Arc.

Alright well I was planning on using a unknown mother or some minor femal character if that's okay?

Say that his mother is Harlequin.

The ship is definitely a no. But perhaps Sep can help you out. Although a more thorough background should be added.

Why is it a definite no? I'm not complaining, i'm just looking for what specifically about it makes it a no, so I can avoid others like it. Is it too big? Too well armed? the fact that it can carry a squad of fighters? I just wanted a small, reasonably well armed, fast ship for her and her peon buddies. I mean, would a Victory II-Frigate (less well armed) or Tartan-Patrol Cruiser (smaller) be out of the question?

Name: Telria Krull

Gender: Female
Affiliation/Organization: Jedi Remnants
Appearance:



Inventory:

Assassin Armour arms and boots (Couldn't find a helmet or breast-plate that would fit her.)
ELG-3A Blaster Pistol

Ship: Exar

Credits: 0
Background: A padawan from the academy on Raltir, she was originally found by her master, a Weequay Knight, who found her at an orphanage after her parents were killed during the Vong Wars. She quickly grew into a Padawan he could be proud of. Not exactly the most promising of students, but not a mistake by any stretch of the force. She and her Master spent a long time bonding lost her master during the cataclysm of The Light and was left to wander the galaxy by herself... Although, this was only a week, because afterwards, she was found by her ally for the next few years, the Talortai Mercenary, Inuel Kai. Inuel became her new master, of sorts, although he was no Jedi... In fact, he could be described as being as far from a Jedi as it was possible to be... But he still taught her how to defend herself. It was 2 weeks after the cataclysm that they received a distress call from the ruins of Fondor Shipyards. An Imperial Contingent were trapped in the wreckage of one of the ships. They decided to assist and found them after blasting their way through the wreckage of one of the larger construction pylons. Whilst in there, Inuel decided to slice his way into the computers to check the inventory and see if there was anything they could swipe. Whilst in there, he found information on a Cruiser that was under construction that, as far as the computer could indicate, had been fully constructed and was merely undergoing final inspections before the cataclysm. It was a top secret project and little other information was available. So, the natural course of action was to try and steal whatever was aboard. Whilst he was at the computers, Telria got to talking with the commander, the commander explained that he and his men had been abandoned by the empire, they had received a message telling them to "Secure the area and await further orders" which was imperial speak for "We don't have time to rescue you, you will be remembered as M.I.A." After talking more, she convinced the commander to help her try to rebuild the galaxy.

It wasn't for another year before she found any other Jedi. At which point, Inuel had grown rather attached to her. And so, decided to stick with her.

Partially inspired by Joan of Arc.

Matt, are you actually at the mansion? it's like overloaded with ppl right now.

I thought they were at that Warehouse with Key. Well, there's about half hours post down the drain.

Fuck it, i'll just say it was a couple of hours before people arrived.

DC Universe: Crisis of a new Era

-several hours prior-

As the Invisible Jet hovered low in the sky, Batwoman jumped out and descended towards the ground, slowly thanks to her cape, landing, the cowl landed around her body, hiding the rest of her body from view. She looked up at the large, gray house. The one she had grown up in and the one she had vowed not to return to until she had made amends for ridding the world of one of its greatest guardians, but it seemed as though that ultimately futile action of self-loathing was going to have to be put on the backburner. Walking towards the house, she walked up the steps and rand the doorbell. The door was answered by a tall gentleman in a butlers outfit. "Alfred?" she asked. "I thought you'd retired..." she said, slowly.

"Indeed, Alfred Pennyworth is retired. I am his replacement." he said, opening the door wide enough for her to enter. She looked around and saw him disappear from view.

"A Hologram?" she asked.

"Correcty, madam. I am the Advanced Life Form Reading Educated Device." At that point, the hologram appeared in front of her, once again. "I have been programmed with a number of appearances to make guests more comfortable." it said, changing between several different appearances before settling back on his first form.

"Wow, somebody really wanted your acronym to spell A.L.F.R.E.D."

"Indeed. And I have been alerted to your coming. I am afraid that Master Damien is not here at the moment." it said, before the hologram disappeared. "Your room is just as you left it, albeit, a lot more tidy.

"Sorry..." she said, whilst walking through the giant mansion and into the parlour. She sat in a large wingback chair by the fire-place and took her mask off, putting it down on a small table, next to her. As she did so, the fire exploded into life and she nearly flinched. At that point, an Alfred Hologram walked towards her with a cup of tea in his hands. He then handed it to her. She took it and sipped from it, before the hologram sat down in another chair across the small table from her. Hera looked down at the cup and a second later, came to the realization that Holograms can't carry anything, as they are made entirely of light. "Alfred?" she asked.

"It may have been 4 years since I retired, but I still remember how you take your tea. Earl Grey, a tea-spoon of cream and a squeezed slice of lemon... Your mother used to drink it that way too... Except when she was pregnant... Then she took hers with brown sauce..." he shook his head in disgust. He smiled on her with his old eyes.

"So, what brings you back from Malta?" she asked.

"House sitting. With this family's penchant for dressing up in spandex, this place sees less and less usage. If it weren't for me and that infernal contraption, it would have fallen to pieces years ago." he laughed, before coughing a little. "I assume you are back for-"

"Mother is missing, i heard... Where is father?" she asked. He looked into the fire and sighed.

"Mas-... Bruce is not here... Damien has kept me abreast of the situation, but I have sworn an oath to secrecy. One of the many things one gets used to within these walls. Mark my words, Master Hera, were my pension plan not in the 6 figures, I would have written a tell-all book by now. and gotten it into the 8 figures" he smiled.

"Father wouldn't have had it any other way." She said, before finishing her tea. Alfred looked her up and down.

"No need to inhale it." he chuckled. He then picked up her mask and looked it over. "Still using it, I see?"

"No need to trade up." she replied. "Works as well as the day I first wore it. Even with all of the boot-marks in it, sorry." He looked it over several times before slipping it over his own eyes, holding it up.

"I suppose it's too late for me to jump on the bat bandwagon then?" he asked.

"I don't know." she smiled back "Bat-Butler has a nice ring to it." She quickly killed her smile and returned to looking at the fire place.

"She does love you, you know, even if you are not willing to see or admit it..." he said. At that point, she got up and snatched her mask from the old mans hands before walking away. He managed to hobble after her the best he could, as she reached the front door, a hologram appeared and the door opened, the A.L.F.R.E.D. mimicing its actions to the automatic door opening system, she looked into the friendly A.I.'s face and stopped, before she turned around.

"I'm... I'm sorry." she said.

"I know... Another thing I have learned about this family is that, when it comes to parents... There is no shortage of issues." She threw her arms around the old man and hugged him.

"Thanks for being here."

"We will always be here." said the hologram.

"And I will too... If not in body, then in spirit." he said. He reached to her hands and grabbed the mask, slipping it over her face. "Be the Bat you were always meant to be. And give the rapscallions responsible for Damiens secrecy a good kicking for me." he said. As she turned around, she saw the hologram stood in front of the door.

"I hope you do not mind, but I took the liberty of uploading a few files to the computer of your jet. You should be able to link to the house at will, now." he said, then stepped aside to allow her to walk off. Walking out, she approached a zipline to the Invisible Jet before being rappelled into it and it shot away.
