Star Wars: The Dawn of the New Republic

RULES

-You may choose either a pre-existing character that fits the time period of the game, or create a SW character of your own.
-Created characters must make sense and be original. Any character that is found to be too much like an existing character will NOT be approved.
-If you are playing an alien, stay true to the mindset and general culture of that race. So do you're homework before selecting an alien race to play as.
-Unnamed, faceless NPC's may be killed, provided it's not random and has some purpose behind it. PC character deaths must be more than just some random death, and must have meaning behind it other than shock. Major NPC characters are off limits.
-Constructive criticism of posts can be given, but don't openly criticize another's work. We're not all as gifted a storyteller as George Lucas, or as skilled a writer as Timothy Zahn.
-Communication is the one word to live by for the RPGs. Good communication between players not only helps the flow of the arc and increases the enjoyment of the storytelling process, but it also helps create new twists and ideas that can make for some memorable stories.
-You can reside on any world in the Star Wars Universe and go anywhere within the galaxy that you desire, including the Unknown Regions.
-You are your character, so act like it. Talk like them, use their dialog. Do not exaggerate your abilities, or mannerisms. BE Your character.
-Several stories can be going at once, and you have the freedom to interact with other characters.
-You must post at least once every two weeks, though it is preferred that you post more. If you go two weeks without a post without prior notice, your character is up for grabs.
-Know your weaknesses and strengths of your character, and your craft (a smuggler is not going to win a straight fight against a Jedi, and a X-Wing isn't going to do much against an Imperial Star Destroyer).
-The Gamemasters have the final say in matters in the RPG. Though, we are always willing to work with you.
-There should be minimal cursing and swearing in posts.

Icon was surprised by the young meta girl’s reaction. He wasn’t sure what she was going to do, but he wasn’t prepared for her to embrace him in a bear hug and beg for mercy. He knew that the men in black were lying, he could hear the change in their hear rates when they told him their side of their story. He was also aware that their downed member was still alive as he was able to hear his heartbeat as well. Icon let the girl speak, before placing a reassuring hand on her shoulder.

”I know.” Icon said with a knowing smile. ”I heard every word they said. I’ve got them, ‘hook, line, and sinker.’” Icon finished and turned to the men in black.

I don’t know what you want with them, and I really don’t care. It’s not gonna happen.” Icon said as again stepped between the men in black and the two young metas.

“You can’t be serious!” said one of the men in black, stepping forward, his fists clenched, flames beginning to engulf them.

”Try me.” Icon said, daring the flaming man in black to make a move.

The fiery man in black reached back, throwing a fireball that hit Icon in the chest, exploding upon impact. It was an impressive light show, however one that had no effect on the blue and silver clad hero.

Icon looked down at his chest and patted out several embers that were smoldering on his costume, looked up at the stunned man in black, who had clearly believed that his attack would put an end to the hero and shook his head.

”You do know who I am, right?” Icon said as he stepped toward the man in black. The fiery man in black made a move to repeat the assault, hoping that a second effort would have the desired result. However, before he was able to unleash another fireball, Icon have him an open hand shove to the chest, sending him crashing into one of his compatriots.

”Anyone else?” Icon asked the three remaining men in black, and was somewhat surprised when there were no takers. He had expected a fight, however, instead they looked around at one another, then back to him, raised their hands and got down on their knees.

Icon took a length of steel pole and bent it, encircling it around the three remaining men in black. Just as he finished securing the mysterious men, the sounds of police and fire responders could be heard racing toward the warehouse.

”Now might be a good time to get out of here. Do you need to get back to Albany now? Or, were you planning on staying in Lost Haven for awhile?”

Heh. I have a knack for that. I'm thinking of bringing Mantis back, but I wish the few posts I had made hadn't been lost to time... Sigh.EDIT: Through the power of the Internet Wayback Machine, I was able to recover some of Mantis' origin posts.

awesome! I'd love to have Mantis back, he's one of my all time favorite characters, but you already knew that.

Icon stood his ground between the men in black and their targets, listening as each pleaded their cases. The three men in black paramilitary gear swearing to Icon that they were attacked, and that the girl had killed one of their own. Even as they told him their tale, Icon tuned them out, focusing his attention on the large man who lay sprawled upon the floor. He looked at the man, and listened. His enhanced hearing picked something up, a heartbeat. The large man was stunned, that much was certain; however he appeared to be in no mortal danger.

He knew that the men in black had lied to him about the girl murdering one of their own, and that mere fact gave him little reason to believe that the pair had attacked them at all. In fact, he was pretty certain that just the opposite was true. However, there were more pressing matters to attend to. The fire that raged within the warehouse continued to grow, and if he did not get them out, it would matter very little who was telling the truth.

He quickly looked around the warehouse, and much to his relief found that the path to the front door was clear of the flames. He pointed to the door and began to bark out orders.

”Get to those doors, now.” Icon demanded, and much to his relief none of them had offered any resistance. Though the men in black seemed hesitant, they did as they were told, as did the two meta-human teens, who kept their distance from the men in black.

Once everyone had begun to move, Icon wasted little time. He faced the wall of flames that was beginning to spread throughout the warehouse, raised his arms and began to move them in a tight circular rotation, increasing the rate at which he moved his arms exponentially. Before the others could blink, Icon had produced a mini cyclone within the confines of the warehouse, extinguishing the flames, even before the others had made it to the doorway.

With the flames extinguished, Icon turned to the others who looked on as he elevated him nearly half a foot off the floor and drifted over to where they stood, aside from the large man in black who was still stunned from whatever the girl had done to him.

”Now, why don’t you tell me exactly what happened.” Icon said, turning to the man in black who had initially addressed him.
