Mandalore managed to remain neutral during the Clone Wars though, right? I've only seen partways into Season 3 of Clone Wars, so don't spoil anything for me.

There were greyer Jedi, especially thanks to the event that was the Clone Wars.Even before there were some who played it a lot looser with the Jedi Code e.g. Qui Gon. So yes, as long as you don't completely ignore every aspect of being a Jedi :P
I like to play as characters who at least share a little bit of my own perspective on things. I've never really agreed on some of the ideals of the Jedi Order from a real-life perspective, and was more in agreement with people like Jinn and even Skywalker. I wouldn't outright turn on them and slaughter the younglings like Anakin did.
Therefore, my Jedi would have been in the Order but once he became a Knight he 'resigned' from it because he couldn't bring himself to fight for something he did not agree with, nor could the Jedi Order allow someone in their ranks who would not abide by their code. Thus, he becomes a Gray Jedi - someone who walks the line between both sides of the Force. I suppose the Republic/Empire would be hunting down any Jedi who posed a threat, yes? My Gray Jedi would be in the records at the Jedi Temple, and I am sure Palpatine would send someone to find him.
Also, I have questions in A Grim Hope if you're interested in answering those.

I'm not taking hunters to hunt the Jedi quite yet. We're still currently in the Jedi Temple trying to escape so there won't exactly be any rouge Jedi yet. The Christmas break and recent crashes of the guild means we're still working to group up as well so new Jedi Entrys are still welcome however once we leave the temple thats the cut off point for Jedi. Once we leave Coruscant, I'll start looking into letting hunters join to hunt down the exiles.
What is the possibility of including a Gray Jedi then?
So do the Seps know Palp and Sidious are one in the same, or do they think Sidious is allowing Palp to help lead the Seps?
I would not think it to far out of question for a Bounty Hunter to have been hired into the 13th Outer Rim Legion, and I've always loved Bounty Hunters. I want to do a Mandalorian Bounty Hunter, but that's far to close into Jango/Boba Fett territory and I do NOT want to be a knock-off. Hmm... what if I was ex-Death Watch? I've only seen them in two episodes of The Clone Wars, and I don't know how that arc ends yet (and I refuse to look them up cause I don't want to spoil the show), so would you think it is possible for a Mandalorian Death Watch member to have been hired by the 13th Outer Rim Legion?
As for character development, my Bounty Hunter is simply seeking payment, but I plan on having him attach to some of the other characters and begin fighting because he believes it is the right thing to do.

I would be interested in joining this. But I am also looking at A Grim Hope, so I am not entirely sure yet.
However, if anyone would like to fill me in on what's been going on in this roleplay, that would be appreciated. I'm not 100% sure if I want to be some sort of bounty hunter helping hunt down the Jedi, or if I want to be a rogue Jedi who is helping the exiles.

I do not want to host this, but I am throwing the idea out there in case someone wants to collaborate and host it in my stead.
Brief: A [Jedi Master] and his [Padawan] lead a battalion of Clone Troopers onto a Separatist-held planet. Unfortunately, the Republic forces are betrayed and the entire offensive is thrown into jeopardy. The battalion is slaughtered and the Jedi Master is killed. Now it is up to the Padawan to lead the remaining Clone Troopers to safety... but it could prove to be her greatest challenge as a Jedi yet.
Okay, so this roleplay takes place during the Clone Wars. You have a single Jedi, a Padawan at that, and only a handful of Clone Troopers... and you're right dot in the middle of Separatist-controlled planet. And this is one of their major planets, so it's not like you can just waltz around everywhere. And don't even think about trying to contact anyone, that's far out of the question. The only way you're getting off this rock is by making your way through hundreds of battle droids (and whatever else the Seps throw at you). You can do this stealthily, or you can do it the old-fashioned way: guns-a-blazin' (and lightsaber slicing too). It'll be free-form, I'll give you guys options and ideas, you just gotta pick through them and decide how you want to go about doing it.
The available characters:
Jedi Padawan: Must be female, must be humanoid, must be young. The Jedi Padawan is free on everything else, but her force powers are severely limited. A lot of the Jedi were quite efficient at dealing with the droids but this one will need the aid of her Clone Troopers. She needs to be female because I feel the bond between her and the Clones would be stronger that way. Her Jedi Master was killed after being betrayed, and now the remaining Clone Troopers look to her as a leader, but is she confident she can lead them to safety?
Clone Troopers: Must be Jango Fett clones. The Clone Troopers were part of a larger battalion sent in with the Jedi Master on a specific mission. After things went wrong, only a small squad made it out alive, along with the Padawan. Practically leaderless, the Clones now turn their loyalties to the Padawan and swear to get her off the planet safely. I don't want any of these Clones to have known either Jedi in the past, as I want the bonds to be fresh - new.

Name: Vincent Gessati
Age: 25
Appearance: [image=http://www.officialpsds.com/images/thumbs/Mafioso-psd24393.png]
Family - The Gessati family lives in New Jersey, not New York. Vincent's uncle, however, would occasionally drive to New York as demanded by his job. This uncle would bring his family along: a wife and daughter. Unfortunately, Vincent's uncle, aunt, and cousin were murdered in cold blood in a mafia-related incident.
Lily Gessati - Deceased? - Vincent's 12 year old cousin, recently murdered in a mafia-related incident. Vincent was very close to his cousin because he admired her personality and sought to help, encourage, and motivate her. After he apparent murder, Vincent has vowed vengeance on finding her killer and bringing him to justice.
Relation to Godfather:
Role in family:
Bio: Vincent is Italian, but his family was never associated with the Italian Mafia; or at least not willingly. They were a low-class family who could trace their lineage back to Catholic immigrant workers. Vincent's family tended to keep to themselves, living in a small neighborhood and working as laborers. Vincent grew up in a small suburb within New Jersey, growing up as any other normal boy would. He graduated high school with excellent grades but would never attend college. He became a common laborer, like his entire family. Vincent was often tasked with caring for his baby cousin (Lily) as a teenager, but he eventually became attached to her over the years, seeking to push her into achieving her goals. He never capitalized on his success, so he was determined to ensure Lily would capitalize on her own as she grew. Unfortunately, Vincent was faced with the horrible news that his cousin Lily, along with his aunt and uncle, were all killed in cold blood during a mafia-related incident in New York. Determined to bring justice to the killer, Vincent has abandoned his family and traveled to New York to begin making connections within the Mafia in an effort to not only find the killer, but to bring the Families to their very knees.
Personality: Vincent was once caring, passionate, and nice. He cared about others and would go out of his way to help anyone in need. He was a well-respected young man in his New Jersey suburb. After the death of his cousin, Vincent became almost dangerously depressed. After suppressing the mental pain, Vincent became noticeably more distant, ruthless, and determined. He no longer felt sympathy for anyone else and became a cold-blooded killer. He 'puts on a show' around others though, attempting to hide his true personality so no one can see his true intentions. He's loyal to his family and friends, nonetheless, and his intentions could change given the situation.
Relationship?: None (yet).
Vincent is a low-class Italian from New Jersey with no ties to the Mafia. He's come to New York to exact vengeance on the man who killed his cousin... but he may also be out to bring all of the Families in New York to their knees. Lily's coffin was closed during her funeral; the Gessati family was never made aware whether or not her body was inside. There could be a possibility than Lily is still alive; her murder may be a cover story...

Update: Due to obligations elsewhere, I must look at this either tomorrow or the day after. Sorry for my absence; work stuff.
I never liked the idea of a group teaming up for 'riches'. Sounds like a lot of greedy adventurers to me.
I like them to be moving towards a lot of different things, but they do it using the same path. A dragon out in the mountain range? Some seek it's scales, others want the glory, some want the safety of the people, while some want to uncover its treasure hoard.

I think I like the 'well this sounded like a good idea when I was tipsy/drunk but now we're miles away from town and if I turn back now I'll look stupid' bit.
