Kundalini ("Dark Times" Epic Game)
 

Star Wars: Kundalini begins on Yavin-4, where our heroes have gathered at the Lost City of the Jedi. There, the Jedi Remnants prepare a daunting journey to the Unknown Regions. Qon Pilat, Master of the Hidden Order, has enlisted a band of (mostly) Force-sensitive pirates called the Spiral Corsairs to help them reach their destination. Envoys from their flagship, the Hapan Battle Dragon "Spiral Dancer", have landed in the city where they will meet the Jedi and their allies to discuss the journey.

All the while, an ominous score plays in the moon's orbit...

UPDATE! The game is looking for 6-8 players and applications are wrapping up on the 15th.

Game Master(s): Doten, Blakkmonk

Gameplay: 40% Roleplay 60% Mechanics (But honestly, expect this to be a bit more fluid and alot of RP to take place in between active episodes)

Everyone will be expected to post once a week minimum to stay in the game, but we will decide the pace of actual gameplay posting as a community; once players are chosen.

Mood: T'is an era rich with the Dark Side and expect a healthy dose of grit. The in-game effect is that Dark Side Points will be harder to get rid of, once accumulated.

Character Creation: All materials may be considered, so long as they are era - appropriate. Keep in mind the xenophobia of the Dark Times. Starting CL will be 4 & hold off on the character sheets until after the application process. You will begin play as a Jedi, ally of the Hidden Order, or a Spiral Corsair (more info on these choices below).

Restrictions: There will be a maximum of three Jedi "padawans" in this campaign (I.e. characters with actual classes in Jedi or lightsaber proficiency), though Force sensitives from other traditions are welcome, Spiral Corsairs and non-Force classes are encouraged! There will be a lot of incentive and action for the latter, so don't be discouraged by those overabundant Jedi.

You are a padawan under the tutelage of the Hidden Order, also known as the Jedi Remnants. At some point in your life, you were discovered by Qon Pilat and brought to the Lost City where you found refuge from the Empire (and training in the Jedi ways). The "Temple-State" is home to thousands of ancient droids who have maintained it for several millenia, and they vastly outnumber the Order which consists of three Masters and a dozen Padawans. Also, the wonder is built upon the surface of the Moon near a powerful nexus of the Dark Side, hiding it from the all-seeing eye of the Emperor. Depending on your age, you may have grown up in the Lost City and because of this, you are socially awkward and out of touch with the outside world. Your teachers are Qon Pilat (a Jedi Knight), Andrael (the Last Paladin of Chatos), and Xizu (the Aing-Tii Exile). Be creative with this.

In this Universe, the "Spirals" have effectively replaced the Blazing Chains (from Unknown Regions) in Star Wars Canon, which includes their Force Tradition Talent Tree. The ideals and mood of these pirates will be more or less the same, although their fleet and reach have been downsized dramatically. If you were born on the Spiral Dancer, the swashbuckling life is all you know. Joining a few others as an envoy to the Lost City, you are probably curious what could be worth the risk of helping Jedi. Your Captain, Zeheart Moon, has kept this close to his chest.

Other backgrounds are welcome, including but not limited to the agents of House Organa. But the Remnants have been carefully selective about the organizations and individuals they choose to work with. The future of their Hidden Order depends on it. In the same vein as the above choices, originality is encouraged here.

Application (posted here) should include...

Name, Age, Class, Race, Personality, Appearance, & Background. Quality is valued over quantity!

If you have any questions feel free to ask or PM.

Does the C0-GM get to play too or just help run? As in does he/she get to run a character in the game?

Definitely can play too.

Color me interested in both sides. I have an idea for a Jedi and I have the time to help you co-gm. PM me and let me know.

where do you want your apps at?

I like the idea of a spiral corsair. Magical space pirate!

I'd like to keep character applications in this thread, with character sheets post-approval being posted in the actual Game Forum.

Glad there is interest! Anyone wanting to Co-GM let me know, I would certainly take on two.

I am going to pass. Good luck with your game.

Jedi padawan

What he said - this sounds like it would be great and I've got an idea for a padawan :)

Looking at doing a NON-Jar-Jar Gungan padawan - gunning for lightsaber mastery.
