Thank you to the many people who have decided to take my complaining to heart and join in. Could also use that in the Mafia RP. I am actually really surprised that nobody decided to be a Jedi, well so far. We have:
thebobmaster- Jalee Seta
Birras- HK-40
Reasonable Doubt- Hona "Farshot" Renar and Inden "Deciever" Renar
Shajinn- Dreed Belgi
killer8531- Barry Sunfire
Spartan Banana- Shangii
ThePoodonkis- Kydan Cillen
WereBob- Awaiting character....better be good.
Dinnj- Solus Valen
thebobmaster- Jalee Seta
Birras- HK-40
Reasonable Doubt- Hona "Farshot" Renar and Inden "Deciever" Renar
Shajinn- Dreed Belgi
killer8531- Barry Sunfire

ThePoodonkis- Kydan Cillen
WereBob- Awaiting character....better be good.
Dinnj- Solus Valen
We are on the Republic side..unless someone wants to be on the other side but I don't like waiting on people to post for the bad guy.
You going to send me a character?
If no one else joins we are still good to go...with the amount of people we have now plus Reasonable Doubt having two characters that puts us up to 10, unless I counted wrong. Just to let you know this is going to be an objective RP none of that mixing it up thing like in the Mass Effect RP. We should be able to get started tomorow or Monday....doesn't really matter to me, if you guys have a prefered day just tell me.
The main reason I am typing this is because I am extremlly bored and am having a case of insomnia, its 4:04 AM. Speaking about time what time zones are you all in (I know some peoples as I have played with them before, I am talking about the people that haven't already told me.)
I'd like to join this RP. (despite being an RP newb... gotta start somewhere
) I'll go make a character.
EDIT: Just saw that. Pacific time north America.

Name: Solus Valen
Background: Grew up on a small, rural junglebound planet. He lived there with family before it was raided by heavily armed fugitives. Solus was only 4. The fugitives used flare based weapons to "Sterilise" life before they were to raid it for supplies. Great burning crevasses were created in this process, among with deep surface craters, glowing from the bottom with immense heat. A nearby travelling ship witnessed the start of the attack and landed to evacuate as many people as possible. Eleven were rescued, but as none knew Solus' real name, the captain of the ship decided to name him Solus, in like to the flare weaponry which destroyed his home world. Unfortunately, another everpresent reminder of all that was lost. The name haunts him. After they had cleared the chaos, and had time to think, the crew met a quick thinking Jedi who had decided to take Solus on, through no reason that Solus could see.
He was taken to a training centre where he was taught in the ways of the force, and in combat. Many years passed, and he progressed quickly, and has now earned the status of Jedi Knight.
Some of the horrrors Solus had witnessed have attributed him a force power of Insanity, which causes targets to go temporarily insane and to lapse into a state of catatonic fear. This was not intended in his training, but mysteriously developed. Whoever is unfortunate enough to have this used against them will find themselves subject to witnessing all of the horrors Solus saw on his home planet, which he only now subconsciously remembers.
Equipment: Single large hilted lightsaber.
Personality: Patient beyond reason. Will stand opposite an opponent in a fight for an untold amount of time. Waiting for them to attack so he can counter, or for the smallest mistake that he can take advantage of.
Point of no return; Although Solus is incredibly patient, when his patience does break, he has been known to go into a blinding rage, attacking his target with stupendous vigor and speed.
Force Powers:
Insanity,
Force Wave,
Heal,
Knight Speed,
Force Armour,

Name: Cain Erelen
Background / text dump: Cain was raised in the luxury and security of Coruscant - the political hub of the galaxy and what has been the location of the Jedi Temple for four decades now.
Recognised as a potential force-sensitive, Cain left behind his childhood and, due to a chance encounter with Zez-Kai Ell - Jedi Master and member of the High Council - he was initiated down a path that would eventually lead to him becoming a Jedi.
Cain did not feel as if he particularly excelled in either lightsaber combat or mastery of the force as a Youngling. However, his quick mind and sharp senses were often remarked upon; allowing him to quickly grasp and learn lightsaber forms and theory as well as theology of the force far faster than many other Younglings, Cain's mind allowed him to overtake students who had the innate talent but not the patience nor the intelligence to keep up.
Zez-Kai Ell would later tell him, at the age of 13, that Cain's humility clouded his recollection of these events - Cain was certainly far above average in his understanding of the force (and therefore in the use of it) and was then told he would be trained by the man who Cain already saw as a father-figure ; Zez-Kai Ell was to take Cain as his apprentice.
Cain, despite his fascinating ability to learn at brilliant speeds, still greatly lacked in talent when it came to lightsaber combat. This, however, was negated and then improved upon when Zez-Kai Ell forewent formality and conventional training and skipped 5 of the 7 forms - teaching him only the Ataru and, rather impressively, the Juyo form, Cain was able to easily overcome many other apprentices in duels by using the force itself to heavily guide and improve his abilities in combat; implementing the force-aided acrobatic movements of Ataru and the seemingly omniscient awareness and control that came with Juyo, Cain was able to use the force to great lengths, with seemingly endless reserve.
It was assessed by his master that Cain could greatly augment his own performance with the force in every way, and Zez-Kai Ell was not against the notion that this included his seemingly boundless capacity for knowledge. From Apprentice to Padawan Cain continued to compensate for his shortcomings in any area with the force, leaving him incredibly capable, but, as many would tell him, ultimately vulnerable should his connection ever be exhausted or even severed. There were places in the galaxy and techniques used by many enemies that would drain him of this connection, and he was often told that should he encounter this, it would most likely be the last battle he ever fought.
Failing to heed this advice, Cain continued to favour his knowledge of the force, continuing to strengthen his talents instead of fortifying his weaknesses.
At the age of 20 Cain's knighthood was within sight, but Cain felt that this was not enough - Cain felt that his studies were now in the battlefield, in the missions he had been sent on alone and with his master, and this feeling grew with each assignment; whenever he left the Temple he truly felt the force all around him, especially in battle where he used it most. His master noticed this, and warned him on occassion, but as Zez-Kai Ell never saw a hint of the dark-side in this force-enabled combat high, he once again let his Padawan be as he was.
A horrible mistake for the Jedi Master, as Cain was amongst the first to join and campaign with the Revanchist; at the start of the Mandalorian War Cain strongly felt that the Jedi should intervene in this slaughter, but even his usually contemplative and empathy-filled Master felt that action was too hasty a course of action. So, when Revan began his campaign, Cain was amongst the first to openly support the Revanchist movement.
Now 24 years of age, Cain leaves the Jedi Temple on an assignment given to him by Revan - he is to aid Corel Saal. Knowing this would be against his Master's wishes, he decides that simply dissapearing is the best course of action - leaving no sign of his departure Cain joins the Republic Fleet in it's battle against the Revanchist movement; Cain's loyalties lie with Revan now, and that means his loyalty is to the Republic.
Equipment: Lightsaber - single hilt, green crystal.
Jedi Robes.
Personality: Life has always been very easy for Cain, even under the supposedly grueling training in the Jedi Temple; this has left him overconfident, carefree and most importanly naive - Cain's initial humility is now absent, leaving him as a man who does not boast but inwardly recognises a certain superiority; one that was placed in his mind by his Jedi Master.
In combat this leaves Cain rather careless, in some ways aiding the stacatto blows of his lightsaber styles, in others leaving him open to blaster bolts or other dangers.
Powers;All of Cain's current powers are based off augmenting his own abilities with force telekensis;
-Master Speed
-Force Jump (for acrobatic moves in combat etc.)
-Knight Armour (shields against physical attacks, blaster bolts)
-Master Valour (increases offensive attributes)
-Force Immunity (greatly increases resistance to enemy force powers)

It looked a lot smaller in notepad and in the text box on here...
It's Star Wars, I'm ALLOWED to have a ridiculous amount of backstory that will never get mentioned...just be glad I didn't have transitional screen effects and music files for you to play whilst reading.
It is probably a good sign that I should resume writing my first attempt at a novel...now THAT would take up a lot of room, over 120 A4 pages of room...
Why must I destroy everything that is good?
