Star Wars: Forged By Fire (KOTOR)

@Dark Wind Quite a good read and no, I don't mind everyone being together, it'll probably help with the action in all honesty, rather than my characters trying to catch up.

Abandoned Hope - Concluded

Scarlet Warrington

---

Location: Town Center
Interacting With: No one (Trying to avoid attention)

---

---

Scarlet was taken aback by what she had just seen in front of her, okay clearly whatever was going on is this damn town, it had little to do with terrorists, that was for sure, unless they some somehow learned to make their skin impervious to bullets as well as give the super strength to nearly choke the life out of her. No, something else was going on, something that had little or no explanation at all; she clicked the safety on her gun and then holstered it behind her lower back again, taking a kneel as she was still a little woozy from being nearly strangled to death.

Rex went over to her, nudging his head against hers as he licked her face, clearly he was worried if she was okay, “It’s alright boy, I’m okay that...thing didn’t hurt me too bad.” She spoke to him, though a little coarse, it would probably take a few days for her throat to recover from the strangulation, but she could still speak for the most part. Now the only real trouble she had to face was with the local authority, even though it was self defense, they’ll no doubt want the full story of figuring out what happened as well as getting her identification.

“I think it best if we leave pup, no need for us to get caught up in this town’s local law enforcement and cause more problems for us, yeah?” She asked with a small smile, Rex giving off a slight bark as she started to stand up once more. Deciding it best to leave so as to not be held up asking questions, she tried to exit through the dense crowd along with Rex, it’d be too easy to spot her deliberately walking away from what just ensued, but if she and Rex could get through the crowd, it’d be much more difficult to see either of the, especially with the locusts of reporters all wanting their juicy exclusive of the chaos that transpired.

Jessica Sorreast

---

Location: ER
Interacting With: Medical Staff & Patients

---

---

Jessica received news that another doctor was soon going to be returning back to the hospital, perhaps that would finally allow her to get a breather, but it seemed like that wasn’t the case on this crazy day, no instead it seemed like the world thought it would be fun to pile even more onto her already busy work. Between people injured and interns asking for advice on something as idiotic as aspirin dosage, it made her wish today was her day off, then again, if it was and she still knew about this, she’d still be trying to help.

“Dr. Sorreast, you need to come quick, there’s a man with strange burns on his arms.” A nurse spoke to her as she reentered the ER once more, it still chaotic as when she left or perhaps it just felt that way to her, she wasn’t entirely sure.

She let out a sigh as she went with the nurse to the patient, quirking an eyebrow as she did so, “So what happened to him?”

“We don’t know, they just seem to be appearing on their own.” The nurse replied.

“Why is it that anytime I ask someone what’s happened or what’s been done, they say ‘I don’t know’, it’s enough to make me want to gouge their eyes out, ya know?” She responded half sarcastically. “We’ll need to start him on a small dosage of morphine for the pain, then clean the wounds as best as possible without irritating them, then apply some gauze bandages to them loosely, we’ll check on him and see if the injuries get worse.”

They went about with what she considered the basics for the man, no doubt the lab was swarmed with doctors trying to get tests done on their patients and it would be little to impossible for her to get any intricate tests done on hers, no for the most part she’d probably be relying on examinations and basic tests, just great.

Star Wars: Forged By Fire (KOTOR)

@Dark Wind I've got no problem with a time jump and in regards to my smuggler, yeah I think we did, who else will make wise cracks and charge for them at the same time?

Star Wars: Forged By Fire (KOTOR)

Alright, here's my fourth character I wish to add to the party, felt I did okay with him. :P

Antares Solborne

Name: Antares Solborne
Race: Human
Age: 30
Sex: Male
Theme Song:

Appearance:

Antares

Antares is about 5’ 11”, he’s usually wearing either a brown and black leather jacket, a black shirt and dark pants. His hair is a white-silver mix; his build is slime athletic, all his running around tends to keep him in good shape, plus he tends to work out from time to time to keep the rest of his body in shape as well.

Background/History: Antares grew up in a wealthy household on Alderaan, he tended to get most everything he wanted, which made him spoiled and with his parents being busy a lot, they were barely able to spend any time with him, this obviously caused some behavioral issues. They started off small at first, being disruptive when he was in school, playing pranks on shop keepers and even theft from them as well, mostly doing anything he could to get his parents’ attention.

He was placed in a military program to try and get that rebellious streak out of him, but that didn’t take either, rather than breaking him, it was the other way around, the instructors felt like they were getting no where with him, informed his household that he was expelled. It seeming like not even this was getting his folks attention, he decided to set out on his own, first joining a crew of pirates, smuggling whatever they got their hands on and for a while it was great, there was drinks and credits to be had and life was good for him.

Antares eventually left the pirates, joining up with some bounty hunters instead, their pay was much higher, he thought he could get used to it and make a name for himself as a bounty hunter, but he soon learned that not all bounties were as simple as the ones he had first done. Such as when they were after a man who had peacefully surrendered, but his partners still killed him anyways, that didn’t sit right with him. He used his weapon’s stun setting on them, incapacitating them and then stole the hunters’ ship, taking it all the way to Nar Shaddaa where he sold it for two-thirds what it was worth, he didn’t care how much he got for it, so long as it was taken off his hands, knowing that the hunters would be after it.

Doing more smuggling work, he eventually saved up to purchase his own ship, the Crimson Phoenix. He put most of his credits into his ship, outfitting it with the best lasers, shields, hyperdrive, engines, whatever could be upgraded, he did it and for his ‘hard work’, his ship was one of the fastest in the galaxy. Now he currently is looking for more work as well as avoiding people who he’s ripped off, either by taking their credits up front or stealing their cargo and selling it himself, who knows where he’ll end up next.

Personality: Antares tends to be a wise cracker and enjoys an extravagant amount of alcohol, as well as flirting with women, which most of the time usually works, but over indulgence of inebriating beverages can sometimes have the opposite effect for whomever he’s flirting with. In addition, he tends to mostly look after himself first and foremost before even thinking about others, at least not without a generous fee for his ‘charity’, however when the chips are down, he can be someone to be relied upon, but he wouldn’t appear that way at first glance.

When it comes to his humor, it can be a tad obnoxious and crude, usually joking about a woman’s ‘assets’, a lot of the time the cause for such things is him being drunk.

Antares is currently pretty happy and relaxed at the moment and only has minor worry about the people he’s ripped off coming after him. If things tend to go bad however, he’ll be quick to sellout people he barely knows, just to save his own skin, even minimal torture is enough for him to turn on people he has no true loyalty to.

Antares is known well by most in the illegal trade, however his reputation amongst the Republic is quite minimal, his mark on them is about as much as any other smuggler’s, which is little to none at all, which is what he prefers, if the Republic starts notice who he is, it can be more difficult to do his trade.

Virtues: Discrete, Defiant, Creative.

Vices: Arrogant, Greedy, Vain.

Antares perception of the world boils down to his world and his dealings, that’s the only thing he notices and pays attention too, the politics and events of other entities such as the Republic or Cartels largely go unnoticed unless it’s shoved into his face or he’s at the center of it.

Although Antares is mostly focused on himself, he does have a sense of morality and won’t turn a blind eye to the injustice of something, he might charge for saving someone from a situation, but he won’t actively turn a blind eye to it.

Antares’ known languages are Basic, Binary, Huttese, Roadese, Shyriiwook and Sullustese.

Attitude: Blunt, Obnoxious, Kind, Excited.

His one secret, though it isn’t that incredible is he wants to try and get with a Jedi, taking it as more of a challenge just based off how virtuous they are and tend to avoid things such as passion and love.

Antares’ hobbies are Girls, girls count, right? Target practice, Working on the Crimson Phoenix and napping.

His primary goal at the moment is to find work that will reward him with a lot of credits, enough for him to sit back and relax for a few weeks. His secondary goal is to upgrade his ship once more, new parts have come out that would improve his ship even more, it’s still top dog, but he likes being the best constantly, but with that being less important and would take time to get the parts and have them installed, that ambition is on the backburner.

His one major dream is to amass as much wealth as possible and start his own smuggling operation on a larger scale, such as the size of the Hutts or other gangs.

Skills/Abilities: Antares is skilled with almost every type of blaster pistol, he tends to have a bit of a rougher time with blaster rifles or anything larger than that, but for the most part, he’s skilled with various blasters. When it comes to blades of any kind, he tends to be a bit clunky with them, finding either their range to be too short or the weapon too cumbersome to use effectively, so he much rather stick with a blaster than using a blade.

He’s not just good with weapons but he also has a silver-tongue was well, able to persuade almost anyone into either believing he’s someone he’s not or getting them to do something for him in order to obtain whatever he’s after.

His fighting style without a blaster is mostly Echani, though he’s good with it, if someone know it better or they know more fighting styles than him, he can find himself outmatched and struggling to gain the upper hand on his opponent.

Star Wars: Forged By Fire (KOTOR)

@Dark Wind The rivers will run red, with the blood of my enemies!

But yeah, I've been there, it's one of the reasons I didn't say anything, that and I know people are busy, I didn't want to come off as rude, but I know sometimes something needs to be said for things to progress a little faster.

Star Wars: Forged By Fire (KOTOR)

@Dark Wind Yep, things should definitely pick up now, got really inspired with your posts, mostly with Iri and her students, thinking up of all kinds of ideas for them, damn you! and I know I already have a lot of characters, but I have another one in the works that I'm really being inspired by, plus it's a good way to have more back ups when no doubt some of my characters will be meat for the grinder. XD

Star Wars: Forged By Fire (KOTOR)

Xeviiy Sinclair
Leon Athos
Coruscant

Leon and Anna continued to search around the area they were in until they saw a woman approach them, taken aback a little by how she seemingly told them to follow her out of the blue, not that it was uncommon for Jedi to know about people through the force, but Anna still found it strange nonetheless and was ready to speak up when Leon simply started to follow the woman, Anna following close behind the two of them.

“War? The Mandalorians have attacked?” Anna asked, slightly loud, quickly covering her mouth, though she was lucky in that no one really heard her.

“Damn it, I was afraid of this.” Leon spoke, a slight look of frustration on his face.

“Sir? What do you mean?” Anna asked, seeing the slight worry and frustration on his face.

“I felt something faintly through the force, though I wasn’t sure.” He responded, furrowing his brow.

“Shouldn’t it have been easy for you to determine? You were a former Jedi”

“I was, but I haven’t really used the force since the Exar-Kun War and my connection to it has...dimmed I guess you could say.” He responded once more, unsure if what he was feeling was accurate, though he was suspecting it, especially since at the same time, the woman he felt was Arren Kae approached them and told them to follow before any real discussion could be had.

Meanwhile back in the Jedi training room, Xeviiy was still asleep, though with her unconsciously feeling the force, she heard faint screams and what sounded like metal being torn apart, getting louder and louder until it felt like it was right in her ear and startled her awake, quickly sitting up from where she was laying. She looked around the room as her heart beat rapidly, slowly getting up as she rubbed her eyes, not sure why she heard it, perhaps it was just her head playing tricks with her whilst she slept, though this feeling through the force didn’t go away, at least not entirely.

She decided that it’d be best if she left and finally went to her room, no doubt any masters that saw her sleeping there would tell her it was a place to train, not sleep. As she exited out the room, she noticed not too far away, Leon, Anna and Master Arren Kae, she quirked an eyebrow, they had seemed to be in a rush and Xeviiy quickly made her way over to them.

“Hey, what’s going on?” Xeviiy spoke loudly to them as she caught up, keeping their pace as they continued to walk towards the council.

Leon glanced over when he heard Xeviiy, giving off a small smile, “Hey kid, glad to see you, you look better.”

“Hey, I’m not a kid, now tell me what’s going on.” Her cheeks puffed slightly, clearly not liking being referred to as a child.

Leon gave off a small grin that quickly faded, “The war with the Mandalorians has started.” He spoke quietly to her, not wanting others to hear and cause a panic.

Xeviiy was partially surprised, merely saying, mostly to herself, “So is that what I heard?”

“Heard what?” Leon asked, raising a brow at her odd comment.

She looked at him and said, “Well I had been in the training room, trying to sort out...you know and then tried meditating to calm myself, I guess I fell asleep, but whilst I was asleep, I heard faint screams and metal tearing apart, it started to sound like it was right next to me and then I woke up, having a faint feeling in the force, not consistently, more like pings if that makes any sense.”

“Sounds like you were connected to the force whilst you were asleep, I must say it’s impressive, most padawans can’t feel such things, what with being so young and I’ve been having the same feeling as well, guess if I’d be able to discern it better if I had stayed on with the Jedi.” He gave a halfhearted chuckle, though he didn’t find the situation funny.

“Well I’m sure the masters are feeling it a lot stronger than me, it just feels like the quietest of whispers every now and then and it’s...frustrating not knowing exactly what it is.”

“I hear ya, perhaps we’ll find out when we get to where were headed.” He simply responded.

Anna glancing between the three of them and being both amazed and a little down that they’re able to feel such things through this mystical power and she can’t.

“Something wrong, Lieutenant?” Leon asked, noticing the look on her face.

“Oh, it’s nothing sir, just impressed that all of you can feel this, feel a bit left out, hehe.” She partially joked.

“Oh don’t worry about it Lieutenant, I’m not even a Jedi and the squirt is still a Padawan, the only one who probably truly feels what’s going on is the Jedi before us, besides you’ve got your own talents that the Jedi in here would be jealous of.” He gave grin to her, Anna unable to help but smirk at her doofus of a boss, but she was grateful for what he was trying to do.

“Yeah, you shouldn’t compare yourself to a Jedi, Republic soldiers have just as many skills as Jedi do, it’s how you use them, not how unique it is.” Xeviiy added on top of what Leon said, understanding how Anna was feeling, there were some things her peers could do with either lightsabers or the force that she couldn’t.

“So where are we headed?” Xeviiy chimed in once more.

“If I had to guess, I’d say it’s to see the Jedi Council, based on the direction were headed...you ready for this? If we are heading into battle, you’ll need to be focused.”

Xeviiy nodded, “Yes, I believe so, I believe I’ve narrowed down what was causing and have accepted it, I shouldn’t have anymore problems.” She partially lied, though she was accepting of what happened, death still lingered on her mind a bit, but for now, her head should be clear for any fighting she might have to encounter.

“Well that’s good, because I won’t lie to you kid, war is hell and everyone needs to be able to count on one another in a fight, if you become scared and immobile, you become a liability and a detriment to the people around you.”

“I understand Major, I won’t let you and the others down, you have my word.” Xeviiy responded, determination in her voice, she wouldn’t let that vision rule her, she knew the importance of what was about to happen and didn’t want to let anyone down.

Leon gave a small smirk, impressed by her resolve and determination to be an asset, to be someone that could be relied on without needing to be worried about, it was on Leon’s mind at first, but now after seeing her, he felt she was going to be alright, now all they truly needed to worry about was this damned war that was potentially happening.

Iri Asichi
Dantooine

“Yes, he can be a bit...blunt, but overall, he’s a good student, should mind his manners now and then, but I can’t complain about him.” She grinned, Vras giving off a slight pout that that tried to hide a grin to no avail.

Vras looked to Aria when she began explaining to him the importance of the Order’s history and then lowered his head, thinking over what she said, “I suppose you are right, I just...don’t always like the boring parts of it.”

“Yes, but all of it is important my student, even the less exciting stuff, remember that.” Iri gently said, Vras giving a nod to his teacher.

Iri was about to address what Aria had said when she heard the shouting of someone who mentioned Mandalorians attacking, Vras was eager to get to his feet, beginning to run over to the holo-feed. It might have been her training and being a Knight, but she didn’t rush over like the others, rather she made her way over to it in a gentle manner.

‘Rushing into things will not change what’s happening, especially if you are far away from them,' She heard her master’s voice in her head as she thought about his teachings, perhaps they did have some impact on her afterall.

“Yeah yeah, I hear ya, old man.” She spoke to herself with a slight grin before finally making her way over to where the others were, glancing at the feed. Her brow furrowed, this was just awful, she knew the Mandalorians could be viscious this was just a massacre.

She noticed Vras and then the other students gathered around before returning her attention to the feed, “Young ones, head back to your rooms, now.” She merely spoke, not turning her attention away again.

They all looked at her in surprise, Vras quickly speaking up, “But master, we need to see what’s happening, so we can hel-” Being cut off before he could finish his sentence.

“No, you all are too young to help first off, second is that this is something you’re not ready for and is too graphic, now return to your rooms at once, this isn’t up for debate.” Iri responded in a slightly sterner tone, the young students lowering their heads a bit before heading towards the building where their rooms were, Iri continuing to look on, though if anyone looked at her, they would see her knuckles white from grasping her sleeve so tightly, clearly frustrated by the furthering events.

“Unbelievable, Master Asichi should let us watch it, we can handle it.” Vras grumbled to Noka, Sanjun and Vrol.

“Well if you want to watch it, we can back in my room, I managed to modify the local holo-feed that we get from the masters so that it can receive outside transmissions.” Sanjun smirked, the others looking to him with a big smile, “Yeah we want too, come on, let’s hurry before we miss all the action.” Vras said, the four of them quickly rushing to Sanjun’s room where they surrounded a table where the holo-feed projected and then turned it on, watching in shock as the carnage the Mandalorians brought continued.

“T-This is horrible, how can people do such a thing?” Noka asked aloud, unable to draw her eyes away.

“Remember in class that day, when they were being discussed? They’re a proud warrior race, Mandalorians, they seek battle and glory and honor, but there’s nothing honorable about this, they’re just beasts.” Sanjun responded, Noka and Vrol looking to Sanjun whilst Vras merely clenched his fist as he looked on.

“They have to be stopped, we have t-” Vras spoke up, looking to the three before Sanjun interrupted, “We can’t, I don’t like this anymore than you do, but Master Asichi is right, were too young for this, I mean we’re not even Padawans yet.”

“Yeah but Master Asichi trained us, she’s the best and I’m sure we could be of help.” He responded, trying to make his case.

“Just look at the feed Vras, that was just with ships alone, imagine what would happen to the four of us.” Noka interjected, trying not to raise her voice as she pointed to the feed, bodies and broken ships drifting slowly in space.

Vras lowered his head, “Look guys, I know I’m hardheaded sometimes, but clearly the Jedi are going to be needed for this, Master Asichi will no doubt be fighting against them, she’s amazing, but you said it yourselves, this is a fierce enemy and she may need our help, I won’t ask you guys to put your lives in danger, but I want to help, no I have to help, Master Asichi probably feels the same way and I won’t let her down.”

Sanjun gave off a small smirk, “Well, when you’re not being a pompous jerk, you make a pretty decent speech, alright, I’m in.”

Vrol was next to be vocal, giving off a roar, indicating he too would help their master against the Mandalorians, leaving only Noka who the three turned their attention too.

She glanced between the three of them, “So you all are just ready to die against these...monsters, what are you crazy?” She Spoke, pausing for a moment before giving off a chuckle, “Well I must be crazy as well if I’m agreeing to this, alright, I’m in.”

“Good, now we need to make a plan for sneaking aboard whatever ship Master Asichi gets on, I know for a fact she won’t let us go willingly, especially if how she was with the feed was any indication, this is risky and could get us kicked out of the Order, we need to be sure about this.” Vras spoke to them.

They all gave a nod, clearly determined, regardless of the consequences, they had to help the Republic against these foes and if not for the Republic, then at least for their master, “Alright good, now let’s get to planning.” Vras said, the four of them talking a plan amongst each other as the feed continued to play in front of them, this would certainly be dangerous for the four of them, not just war, but the consequences should they return alive.

Star Wars: Forged By Fire (KOTOR)

Yeah, think everyone for the most part is ready to see some action, think the whole meeting everyone took a bit too long.

Ember Northwood

Name: Ember Northwood

Age: 15

Gender: Female

Appearance:

Picture

Height/Weight: 5’6”/115 lbs

Personality: Ember is friendly for the most part, though when she’s in a bad mood, she can be a bit cynical, sarcastic and rude, but for the most part, she always tries to be friendly to everyone she can. She’s also slightly lazy, preferring a lot of the time to nap under a shaded tree or a cool meadow, whatever she finds relaxing really, she can easily drift off to sleep as a result of being so comfortable.

History: Ember grew up in Goldenrod City, since she was little she always enjoyed pokemon, especially her father’s Growlithe whom she would spend all of her time playing with and hoped one day to join the police force with her own Growlithe.

Things however changed for her when she was about twelve, her father got a new job in Kalos, a land she hadn’t heard of before and their lives were quickly packed up and moved over to Kalos, it didn’t take her long to get used to the new land, but with her new lifestyle, it did make her slightly more lazy, often napping in secluded spots with the Growlithe that evolved into an Arcanine only a year ago.

One thing has gotten her motivated though, seeing the battles of the elite four on TV has inspired her to begin her journey and try to join their ranks, maybe even become the champion, although she knows the latter is slightly more difficult, but whatever she can do to become apart of strong trainers like them, she’ll try.
