Sometimes you spend so long looking for peace in someone else, you loose sight of that peace you can give yourself. Don't forget that guys.

I just stumbled upon this on the home screen, and you can count me interested. Though is it alright if I can make like a stormtrooper unit or commander of some sort? Or like an Inqusitor-like sith?
Appearance: Name: Jason Je'and Age: 21 Race: Human Gender: Male Force Order: Order of the Grey (Grey Jedi)
Weapon: Twin black lightsabers that interlink into a double bladed lightsaber Armor: Armored Combat Robes (Family Heirloom), also has an old suit Force Powers: Pyrokinesis (Adept?), Force Lightening (Proficient), Force Tornado (Proficient), Force Cloak (Proficient)
Personality: Jason can be brash and act without thinking, but he is kind, strong and embraces the tenants of his Order with zeal. He is also very accepting unless you're the kind of evil that makes people want you dead. Background: Jason was born into the founding family of the Order of the Grey, the Je'ands. Hundreds of years before, after the Great War with the Sith Empire, Zar'kun Je'and, Alice Je'and, and their son, Jerus, founded the Order after disagreements with their former Jedi friends. Jerus was placed into the leadership position because of his experience and his Mandalorian, received while keeping his Jedi heritage a secret, training while his parents acted as councilers to help guide him.
Jason's father, Roman, began training him from the age of four, when it became apparent he could use the Force. It began with simple exercises, levitating a pepple, basic saber forms, other basic Force techniques, and grew more advanced as he got older. By age ten, he could already use Force Fire proficiently and summon a Force Tornado, though he couldn't sustain it for very long. When he was fifteen, the Empire's soldiers attacked their enclave on Ruusan.
It was sudden and devastating, the members of the Order of the Grey having been in the middle of eating, meditating, or discussing various philosophies. Jason himself had been in the middle of lunch when the attack hit. The only warning they got was the sound of turbolasters bombarding the area, then the Storm Troopers burst in the doors, gunning down every Force User they saw. Roman signaled an evacuation, having his family and the others who couldn't fight flee with an escort, the rest remaining behind to buy time. A few months later, they were contacted and informed of Sanctuary. This is where Jason has finished his training.
Destiny: To bring the Order of the Grey back up to strength and return balance as it should be to the Force.
Notes: Force Tornado is sending a vortex of lightening at the opponent to both levitate and shock them briefly. Phase Walking will never get any stronger for him. Force Fire isn't mastered, but is higher than Proficient. Jason's ancestor Jerus built his reputation as a bounty hunter because of his Mandalorian training, not because of his Force inheritance.
The year is 2028, and the way war is waged has changed drastically. After the terrorist attacks on Paris in 2015, the world began turning to PMCs to provide the extra protection a beleaguered host of national armies was sorely becoming unable to provide. While PMCs gained repute and increased incomes, research firms were benefiting from the increased demands for new weapons and tech. One firm in particular, who'd been known for cutting edge weaponry and combat technology, was Weyland Industries. They even began doing research into suspected Xenobiological activity to find it's source.
In the year 2017, they came across a temple of some kind in the Amazon while one of their research teams was investigating strange sightings and disappearances. Upon entering the temple, they found preserved specimens of two alien species, one that they dubbed the Xenomorph and the other one that had had sightings in a CIA black ops mission in Guatemala and during the 1997 Gang Wars in LA, that the survivors called the Predator. However, a couple of hours after entrance to the temple was achieved, the research and security teams went dark and several Predator ships appeared. Several more teams of researchers and security were deployed and it was discovered that the Xenomorphs were no longer in a stasis like state and were active.
For three years, containment teams and procedures were enacted to contain both the Xenos and, as it was discovered they were called, the Yautja. Final containment teams included cloned Xenos and Predators in the containment efforts, culminating in the containment of three Xeno colonies for continued study with the rest destroyed and the eventual defeat of the naturally born Predators still on Earth, forcing them off world. Eventually, it was successful and Weyland had all the data and samples they needed to begin selling the clones.
By 2021, the US Army had employed three ET Special Forces units in the war against the Islamic State, and had removed their leaders, effectively shutting down the terrorist organization in months. Each unit consisted of a standard fireteam, two Predator clones and three Xeno clones, the clones "imprinted" to treat the Fire Team Leader and his or her second as the Alpha and Betas in the Xeno's case, and the Clan Leaders in the case of the Predators. They are mentally conditioned to be loyal to the Fire Team and only attack targets that are clearly hostile to their leader. The Xenos also have sub-dermal control collars just in case.
You are a member of a veteran fire team within the US army, your team and clones having been together since 2025. You all know and trust each other, or respect in the case of the clones, but you all are beginning to get a sense that something isn't right when your orders start to become questionable.
Welcome to AaP: A New Dawn! In this roleplay you can be a human, Xeno, or Predator, but there is a limit per squad. Your squad name will be Raiden Squad, because you get sent in first and fast.
Of course, you know the rules (no god modding, Mary Sues, Gary Stues, etc). If you have an issue with another player, take it to PM. If the two of you can't get it resolved, then involve a GM to moderate so you don't both leave the RP. We're here for a good time, not to debate which is the better race, weapon, etc, etc.
Jericho and Adams had been waiting for a reply from Fresno, and started setting the charges to kill the time, when the whole building shook. "What in the hell?! Do you have more guys setting another distraction?" Adams shakes his head and Jericho frowns, but they quickly return to setting the charges. It takes about three minutes, what with making sure everything was in the right spot, but they got it done. Still, Jericho was uneasy and he kept the butt of the SMG he had to his shoulder. Taking the radio from Adams, Jericho opens it. {Fresno, give the radio to Duncan.} He waits a minute before speaking again. {Do you have any idea what's going on right now?}
