R.I.D BASE OF OPERATIONS

I'm thinking about creating a dark jedi academy within RID, i have everything ready, just wondering is this something the jedi of RID would be intrested in RPing?

im no longer on starsider with my main but i do have a low level toon there so if u need any help with RP history lines or ranking titles and such lemme know when your having ur next meeting for it and ill attend, i know quite alot of stuff, i spent a year over here in a no ooc unless in tells dark jedi rp guild over here on chilly, man that was hard

I ran a light jedi school for about a year and a half.

The hardest part is not letting yourself be cliche'd and boring. If we only take ideas from the movies, and always run as if we're jedi/sith we tend to kinda just repeat everything that's been done before.

I like the idea of being jedi who hunt other jedi. For the Emperor. It explains why we're allowed to live in the first place. I know that's the entire background story of how my character was created.

I also like the idea of having a rp-training session. Of all professions played in the game, the master/apprentice role for jedi is the one most people want to roleplay out.

Actually, I'm also thinking pretty strongly of the idea of making an entire RID only rp-oriented city... a place where the dark jedi school would be awesome.

I would support and help you any way I can, but I just hate the idea of spouting off the "sith code" over and over again. I'd love it if we can figure out a fresh way to revamp the idea of a school.

well the one i did was kinda complecated because we ran 2 guilds, light and dark and we was constantly at war so alot of action went on, was a fun year tho.

Should this ever be a serious consideration, Nar Shadda would be happy to assist. Given its smaller size and out-of-the-way location on Dantooine, it may serve such a purpose well (and help drive people to live there). However, I will not make it a complete RP city as Nar Shadda is a city open to all RID members, RP or not.

Oh I only thought of that because it's easier to run into casual rp when you live in a city of all rpers, and it'd be nice to have an imperial rp city where there isn't anything but cyber and duels all the time rofl. All the all-rp cities left that I know of are either like all neutral/rebel/crime syndicate types or just exist to provide space for the strip/club and prostitution cantina's all the time for people. It's annoying sitting in cantina's in these supposed "rp cities" watching strippers do lap dances and people doing soft porn in spacial emotes.

Of course, Fort Oasis is already set up and decorated very nicely for casual rp, and so is Nar Shadda. Fort D'aroo serves the whole concept of being near Restuss very well, it's totally chaotic lol.

Believe me, if I could give Nar Shadda a special reason to exist, such as RP, I would. My only issue with such an idea would be making it strictly and only an RP city (everyone has different tastes). I just wouldn't want someone coming to the city only to be yelled at or something because they weren't RPing.

i have to say im guilty of this but it was in eisly tina during prime time and we had like an entire orgie going on to freak new players out.

Can I be the enemy? I'll come SF by myself fully buffed and attack you guys.

but toor that wud be unfair on them. they wud need like 30 ppl to kill ur ass.

He would have to get through the thousands of grauls and lizards and huurtons and tribesmen just to get to us though. Although they are "low" level, get enough of em together and they make for a kinda decent defensive wall hehe.

Not to be too much of a necro, but since Fort Keen features the most active RID RP population, I'd suggest that for those individuals wanting to establish RP "bases" for whatever (ie Jedi-Hunter School), I'd gladly open the doors of Fort Keen to you all.

I like the idea of a Dark Jedi academy. Cor would fit right in.

I need to Retcon my previous statement, Fort Keen is currently home to the 826th Stormtrooper Legion, as such, a Dark Jedi Academy would be completely out of place. In fact, I could even foresee some inter-guild RPer "drama" from this as one faction of RPers (myself included) would have a hard time rationalizing Dark Jedi running willy-nilly side-by-side with the Imperial soldiers that are supposed to clobber them.

But, I'd gladly help you in organizing something that allows you to be a Dark Side user and an RID RPer. In fact, I'd contact Safia' (a potential RID recruit and good friend of mine) who RPs an Inquisitor. Likewise, posting at StarsiderGalaxy you'll receive lots of ideas on how to be an Imperial Dark Sider and for it to make sense.

put em on nar shadda, at least they would fit in with all the force sensitive npcs running around on dantooine.
