Current Sometimes I wonder whether or not my trust is misplaced or not, especially when it seems that the trust I place in some people isn't reciprocated.

All that is gold does not glitter; not all those who wander are lost; the old that is strong does not wither; deep roots are not reached by the frost.

Is it wierd that, whenever I am stressed I want to RP? I don't know, helps keep my mind off of certain things. Don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing.

@Vandy I'd prefer if we go to Bandomeer, I think it would be interesting to see warfare on a planet that is toxic due to the effects of the mining corporations in it and how it would affect the native species (and how it colors their view on the whole conflict, which side they'd fight and so on) but that's just me
Still looking for people? If so, consider this a notice of interest then
Me and @agentmanatee's collab is posted, hope it's good enough
Here's the collab between me and @agentmanatee

"Retreat!" Shouted commander Malcolm over the 279th frequency before turning off communications. He let out a curse as the droid army advanced towards them, frowning when he noticed the Dark Jedi that lead the assault, a Muun of all people; he thought he heard Faulker cursing over the presence of the Force-user, most likely complaining about 'treacherous Jedi' or something but the commander of the 279th was now focused on getting as many of his men out of Fort Garrick, the presence of the Muun yet another detail "This is commander Malcolm over all units of the 279th, retreat, do not try any heroics, the battle is lost. Over." He repeated into the box, hoping that his men would listen to him and retreat like he had ordered them to. 

Banger growled over hearing the retreat order from Malcolm... not that he thought there was much chance of a victory at this point. Besides the... traitor jedi? Whatever it was called was cutting men down rapidly, and Banger wasn't crazy enough to go head on with that. He repeated the order over comm to his own men, the stubborn bastards were gonna need the extra push, "You heard Malcolm brothers! Get to the blasted gunships! Give that crazy jedi a wide berth, don't let him cut you down.", Banger steadily fell back, returning fire into the droids as they approached, Nix was by his side doing much the same until they reached the gunships, hopping in he got back on comms, "Malcolm, this is Banger my men are on gunships, lets get the fuck out of here!", he could see Malcolm across the way, and opened fire on some of the droids advancing on his commander, the other's in the Gunship doing the same, hoping their Commander would see the shots and hop on board.

Malcolm heard Banger over the comms, giving a silent thanks to whatever force watched over the universe that some of his men had survived "Understood Banger, I'll be retreating to join you shortly, how many spaces are left on the gunship?" He asked the captain of the 4th company. HE started retreating towards the source of the transmission, letting out a few shots from his blaster rifle, hoping to take some of the damned clankers as he retreated. That was when he noticed the Muun fighting the feline Jedi Knight, and how the Commander of the 99 was encroaching into their fight with the intent to help their Jedi. He scrambled for a second, trying to find the frequency of the 99th before quickly forgetting about that "Spook, run you damned idiot!" He shouted to the man, and that was when he noticed that he was too late as he saw the clone commander's head rolling on the floor, quickly followed by the head of the Jedi Knight.

He felt hatred surging towards him, pushing him to attack the Dark Jedi, even firing a few shots at the Muun Force-user, but that's when he felt someone dragging him backwards to the gunship "C'mon Commander, you said so yourself, no heroics" He heard one of his men said but before he had time to ask who was dragging him back they were both inside of the gunship. Commander Malcolm let out a steady breath, trying to calm himself before he punched the interior of the gunship in frustration, falling into one of the empty seats.

Banger couldn't believe it... he had watched Spook's head fly from his shoulders... damn brave man. As the gunship took off, he watched Malcolm let his anger out on the wall of the gunship. He shook his head, and took his place next to his commander, removing his helmet as he sat down, "... So Malcolm... whats our move? Spooks gone and so is our jedi so... guess your giving orders now. Well, you or Drake, guess your ranks are the same huh?", he chuckled a bit, looking at the mish-mash of men in the gunship. Toes and Numbers were on it, and Nix obviously. He put his hand to his ear, "4th company, give me a head count, who'd we lose?", most of the officers checked in, but he lost a squad and half at least... he cursed, "What in the blazes happened down their? Who the hell gave clankers a Jedi?"
Nix responded with a shrug, Numbers just looked down at the floor, he had seen Spook go down too and he was still a shiny. toes spoke up though, "Seems a lack of communication to me Banger, I mean, surely somebody knew right? Maybe we'll get told in a minute maybe not, but hey we made it our aye?", Banger shook his head, Toes moved on quickly from everything, he had obviously already moved on from Spook at least.

Malcolm rose his head when he heard someone ask the question of who had 'given' the clankers a Jedi. He was about to answer when he heard an all too familiar snort "Who do you think was? It's that bastard Dooku, he is surely looking to form his own Order composed of other treacherous bastards like himself" Said Sergeant-Major Faulke, sitting next to Toes in the gunship "We don't need your conspiracy theories now Faulke, the Count isn't looking to build his own order, train an apprentice, yes, but not build another group of Jedi, plus he probably picked that apprentice within the Banking Clan itself" Said the man who had dragged Malcolm into the gunship, whom he now recognized as Heinrich. He heard Faulke give yet another snort, but the Sergeant-Major gave no further comment, at which point a heavy silence fell over the gunship as Heinrich moved over the injured, trying to help them as much as he could.

Malcolm let out a soft sigh after a while, removing his helmet as he stood up to watch over the other clones that were in the gunship "Banger, you asked me before what's our move now, and I tell you that it's the same as before" Said the commander of the 279th, letting out a heavy breath "We'll try to rendezvous with Drake's group, see if our Jedi General survived the assault, once that's done we'll plan for the moves that the Separatists will make, and hopefully we'll get to kill that Muun bastard" He said, clenching his fists at the mention of the Dark Jedi, before he put his hand to his ear "Pilot, try to make contact with either the Admiral above or any of the other commanders of the 417th, try to find if there's any meeting point with the rest of the army as well if you can" He said before rubbing his forehead "Something tells me that this campaign got a lot more complicated" He said, clearly frustrated over the situation as well as tired, as he sat once more next to Banger.

Banger chuckled at Malcolm's last comment, turning to his commander, "Aye commander, it would seem our job just got a whole lot more interesting, and I can't wait to get back into the thick of it.", Banger looked at his men in the gunship with him, all of who answered him, "Can't wait sir!", he smiled, looking back at his commander, "As  you can see commander, me and my men are ready for anything these bankers throw at us." he knew it would get under Malcolm's skin as he was so willing to throw himself and his men into dangerous situations, and he wanted to lighten the mood.

Malcom wanted to groan at Banger's words but couldn't help but laugh a little bit "Alright then you maniacs, but my order still stands...so no heroics, ok?" He said, laughing once more a little bit as he gave Banger a light punch on the shoulder. Before he could say anything more, Malcolm heard the pilot speaking to him via their comms "Understood" He said giving a small nod "Alright men, new information, according to what our pilot heard, we are to regroup at a recently captured Separatist facility, any questions?" He said as he stood up, turning to watch the rest of his brothers on the gunship as he waited for any potential questions they might have.  

Banger laughed, "So our new base is in the recently vacated home of the enemy? Sounds fine with me, will the rest of the men on the ground be joining us? Do we have status on the other regiments?", Numbers spoke up after his captain, "What sort of casualties are we looking at? That was a disaster..."

"That's correct Banger, seems a bit ironic though, doesn't it? They push us out of the fort only for us to fall back to one of their bases" Said Malcolm, chuckling darkly "As for the rest of the men, that's the plan, seems the other regiments are ok but we've lost contact with a team sent to destroy the communication arrays of the separatists, I will assume them as MIA for the time being" He explained to the other troopers in the gunship, letting out a soft sigh at the number of casualties "No idea to be honest with you" He said, letting out a heavy sigh "I just know that we gotta make the bastards pay for this" Said Malcolm, looking at his troopers in the eyes "Get ready, ETA is of an hour or more" He said before he went back to his seat as he waited for them to arrive at the recently captured Separatist facility.
Alright then, send me the link via PM or put it up here, that way we can have a titan pad for any future collabs in the RP
@agentmanatee Alright then, it's a bit late over where I live so would it be ok if we start tomorrow on the collab? Send me a PM or we can use the titan pad, whatever you prefer. On the point if your character it will definitively be interesting, can't wait to see how both our characters clash with each other
@agentmanatee Hey, since you are making a character for the 279th and I've yet to make an intro post, what say you about writing a collab once you are done with your character sheet? That way we both write our intro post at the same time

EDIT: That's it if you are ok with it @Vandy
@agentmanatee I'd have no problem, as long as Vandy agrees to it
Waiting for @Peik before wrapping up the prologue.

In the next post, the group will be moving to Windhelm, arriving on the night of the 3rd, Sun's Height. You guys can take this chance to add in a second character, or swap out the old one. Either way, new characters from now on will be starting in Windhelm on the 3rd. They would either be signing up with Ashav that night, in the Candlehearth Hall, or they could simply run into the group during a very important event on the 4th.


I am also considering adding a second character
<Snipped quote by Mortarion>

Not a problem.

EDIT*
Roster updated. @Vhagar how would you feel about Drake being promoted to regiment commander?

EDIT 2*
Moved the 279th to the second regiment. @Mortarion


Alright then, thank you
