Re: Star Wars: Fall of the Order [in play]
Lynching inactives isn´t the worst idea, looking at people who have been replaced even though they should have been wogged probably isn´t either. The so called solid information (investigations) hane´t been all that sucsessful. Maybe it´s time for a new aproach Vote: Tincow

What i am saying is that if Igno killed a Sith the previous night, while Jooray is suspectible to dark side.Why would any sith pass an opportunity to convert a jedi grandmaster who might be the strongest jedi currently to the dark side? It would be utterly stupid for an mafia to pass such a chance.
I can understand what you are thinking here, but I highly doubt that joooray is the new sith apprentice. there are a few reasons for that . first is that Joooray has been accused of being a dark jedi since ages. I would say that the evil sith lord would wish have his apprentice to live as long as possible that he may grow strong under the teachings of the dark side. Joooray has always been a good lynch candidate. Ironside, the former apprentice, named this round joooray, as an evil person. Not a move I would pull if he was just recruited. Last thing, this is not how the sith lord thinks. He did not pick Beskar, but he did pick Ironside. The main reason for picking ironside imo, would be that he has not been accused at all and was active, yet managed to avoid questions. So that is what I believe he has done agian. Personally I think Autolycus matches ironside in behavior. He has remained active throughout the whole game, he hasn't been questioned in a long time. He also just follows other people's cases all the time (which I would say is alone a scummy behavior) . Changing votes to other targets people have pointed out without it seems he knows why . his last post:
"Cecil's points seem to have been answered. Our leaders who have joined the force seem inclined to leave Jooray in power, so unvote, vote: Diamondeye."
so I doubt Joooray is a sith, but a dark jedi just like he says. I am not sure I like the idea of having a dark jedi as a grandmaster.. but apparently our force ghosts seem to see a beneficial side to it? but .. meh I guess I can accept that he is not lynched right now, if he can be brought back to the light side...
so as for now I will Unvote; Vote: Autolycus
@ Joooray, how many night kills did it take for you to become a dark jedi?
@ Diamondeye, you say some of your actions may have moved you towards the dark side? what are those actions?
-
Re: Star Wars: Fall of the Order [in play]
Joooray is trying his best to get back to the light side. And from what I read, I think its genuine.
I advice to leave Joooray alone for now :bow:

I never said that - again you're pulling fluff out of the thin air. I said that the way I interpreted the results on me was that I needed to do fewer atrocities than others to be swayed, not that I had done any yet - I have not.

Two. I'm not sure if it representative though, as I used Force Lightening, which could push one to the Dark Side faster than other ways, because of it being so cruel. At least that's why I deduce now afterwards.

Re: Star Wars: Fall of the Order [in play]
okay, first off,
unvote:diana abnoba, unvote:jooray
my votes seem to have gotten messed up by not unvoting.
diamondeye is simply not coming across as scummy to me, but if some1 can do an analysis of him that convinces me otherwise im game for that.
jooray simply does not seem like a threat at this point and could prove useful to the town
sasaki's defence makes sense to me
so that leaves...
vote:greyblades
i believe he is the latest sith apprentice. he ahs just had a jump in activity since the death of ironside, suggesting a new moe interesting role, plus his posts come across as trying very hard to look innocent, i simply cant believe he didnt know ironside was dead when he appears to know what is going on for the most part, and his other posts just stink of scum to me. i dont think he is the master, but lynching the apprentice still helps till we can pinpoint the grand master scum.

Yeah ok thats all good except that I always have increased activity in the later half of huge games. I have problems keeping up with 60 people posting so my attention goes and I end up lurking, now that theres a more manageable number of posters I'm more able to keep track. Also the threat of being lynched is on heck of a motavator to get into gear so Unvote, vote: Diamondeye

She really hasn't contributed. Her defense has been, "You guys don't know how to read me." Being busy IRL could be just a convenient excuse. She's usually much more helpful.

Right. Coincidentally I had sent a PM earlier today commenting that anyone voting for Greyblades after the Ironside thing would have to be an idiot or scum. And here you are, and you're anything but an idiot. Too bad it's too late to lynch you.

True, the only scummy thing Greyblades has done is make that one comment pointing out the obvious.

Re: Star Wars: Fall of the Order [in play]
Practically speaking, if it is to be between Diana and Diamondeye, then I'd rather lynch Diana. I don't believe Diamondeye is worse than a Dark Jedi, while Diana ... well, pever knows my thoughts on that. We'll see what happens.

- Excellent activity today guys! Keep it up! Wow!
Ronen Durdon noted that time had expired, and asked for a vote.
"Have we reached a verdict?" Durdon asked.
The votes were counted.
"Yes we have, Grandmaster" said one of the Jedi.
"Who has been found guilty?"
"Sky Yi'do."
"Very well. Let the accused have a chance to defend herself." Ronen said.
Sky Yi'do: "Huh? What? Are you guys still accusing me? What did I do?"
Ronen Durdon: "You have been accused of murdering.....
Sky Yi'do: "I know that much, I'm not totally lost here. But WHY are you accusing me?"
Voice in the crowd: "You haven't been very talkative!"
Sky Yi'do: "And that means I'm Sith?"
Ronen Durdon: "Possibly, you're lurking to avoid suspicion."
Sky Yi'do: "Oh get real. Why would I keep doing it then? You're making a huge mistake here!"
Ronen Durdon: "Do you have anything else to say in your defense?"
Sky Yi'do: "Yeah, maybe one thing. I'M INNOCENT!!! You're making a big mistake!! You're making a big mistake!!! Get your hands off of me, you're not throwing me in that airlock. Get away from me!"
Ronen Durdon: "Hold her down. We'll toss her in there by force."
Sky Yi'do: "You're wasting your time! I'm not going to allow myself to die this way. I'm not a Sith, I'm not a Sith!"
Voice in the crowd: "But you are acting like one!"
Sky Yi'do: "Bollocks and poppycock! I'm doing no such thing! Your senses must need to be attuned! You're making a huge mistake!!!"
With that, Sky Yi'do was dumped unceremoniously into the hangar bay, and the doors were slammed shut. Pouting at first, Sky Yi'do began to center herself, and called upon the Force. The force fields were released and she was blown out into space. Once there, she began spinning around in one direction, then the other. Then she did the "moonwalk" and a few other dance moves. She was clearly indicating that she was still alive.
After watching this display, Ronen Durdon sighed with disappointment and used the tractor beam to pull her back into the hangar bay. She was alive and well. Pressure was restored and she walked back into the ranks of the Jedi Council with a smirk on her face.
Ronen Durdon: "You have defied the judgment of the council!"
Sky Yi'do: "Pardon me, your lordship. You have also survived the "judgment" of this council, so I don't want to hear about it. Maybe if their judgment wasn't so inaccurate, it wouldn't have been necessary."
Ronen Durdon: "So strong-headed, you are. Will you report for guard duty tonight as ordered?"
Sky Yi'do: "Of course I will. What do you think I am, a Sith?"
Suddenly, one of the support beams above the Council meeting gave way, and the several-ton mass of metal slammed into the deck, crushing one of the Jedi. It was Loris Midal, a rather quiet Jedi who hadn't been doing much of anything. Her loss was still deeply felt by the Jedi Council.

Hello.
I know this is an unusual rule, but it's an important one.
If you've broken this rule, please come forward. I probably already know about it, but I'd feel better if you came forward with an admission of what you've talked about.
Honesty will lead to forgiveness and maybe a slight balancing adjustment. Not being honest means the next time it happens, I have to WOG people.
EDIT: bump and merge.
Gosh, you ask about one incident and 7 others are brought to your attention. :evilgrin:
Keep 'em coming. Still haven't heard from the one I was referring to. :holmes:
You know what that means, right? I'm going to ask you all (even if you think you've been good boys and girls) to go back to start and re-read the game rules one more time. Consider it a refresher course, especially if you neglected to read them the first time. Yes this game has some rules that are out of the ordinary for my games.
Also, many of you are sending me questions regarding battle mechanics and so on, 95% of which have been answered already in the How To Play/F.A.Q. post located conveniently in post number three, just beneath the rules and opening story.
You might learn something you forgot, or it might head off a question you were going to ask. Considering 2/3 of the game is over, double-checking the rules to make sure you're following them and double-checking the how to play section to make sure you know how to play is probably a good investment of 15 minutes or so.

Re: Star Wars: Fall of the Order [in play]
Kel Dih-mar was patrolling the destroyed starboard section where the deflector shield generators once were. This place had been destroyed four nights ago by a powerful being. There were still open sections exposed to space, where the entire deck had been ripped apart, with the atmospheric pressure maintained only through the structural integrity fields.
Unknown: "I've been waiting for you, Kel Dih-mar."
Kel turned around, igniting her lightsaber.
Kel Dih-mar: "Who's there? What do you want?"
Unknown: "I want to know why you're standing here in this dark, lifeless deck, looking out into space, instead of standing up for what you know is right."
Kel Dih-mar: "What do you mean?"
Unknown: "You have the potential to be more than just some plodding subordinate, a lackey guarding a pile of useless scrap."
Kel Dih-mar: "Who are you? Identify yourself!"
Unknown: "Perhaps you do not yet realize it... but you could destroy the Sith. I have foreseen it... you can become so much more than what you are. All you need to do is give yourself to the Dark Side...."
Kel Dih-mar: "Is that a fact? Why don't you step into the light so I can see your face... or are you afraid to make yourself known?"
Unknown: "Who I am is not important. If you could be turned... you would be a most powerful ally."
Kel Dih-mar: "No sale, whoever you are. If this is some kind of trick to test my loyalties, you've failed. I am a Jedi, and I always will be. Show yourself, and explain why you're trying this charade? Are you a Sith?"
Unknown: "Am I a Sith? I believe the point of all of this is, are you a Sith?"
Kel Dih-mar: "Answer the question..."
A cloaked figure stepped out of the shadows, and lifted a hand. Kel Dih-mar felt as if the life was being drained from her body, and she reacted quickly, and unleashed a prepared blast of the force, pushing the cloaked figure into a heap of twisted metal.
Kel Dih-mar: "Are you ready to talk, or do you want me to toss you around like a rag doll some more?"
The cloaked figure crawled out of the wreckage, and lifted its hands again. Kel Dih-mar felt the same strange sensation, as if the force was being pulled away... but before it could take effect, Kel Dih-mar interrupted her attacker with a sideways push, sending the cloaked being slamming into one of the busted corridor walls.
The cloaked figure stood up, and tried again, but Kel Dih-mar just threw the cloaked figure into the other side of the corridor, and advanced on the fallen figure with her lightsaber.
Kel Dih-mar: "I think I've been more than patient with you. You're under arrest! Stop right where you are!"
But a strange sensation came over Kel, and she lost her concentration. When she looked up, the cloaked being was already gone.

Kenth Cogma was returning to his quarters, when he noticed that someone else was following him. Reacting quickly, he began to shield his force signature, and he turned a corner and slipped into the shadows.
The cloaked assailant who had been following him lost track of Cogma, and stood at a junction of two walkways, unsure of which way to go. Suddenly, without warning, another being dropped down from an opening in the above deck, and landed between the cloaked assailant and his target. The cloaked figure ignited its lightsaber.
Reacting quickly, the assailant ignited a gold lightsaber as well, and the two powerful beings clashed sabers. The one with the green lightsaber stood in a Djem so stance, and the one with the gold lightsaber stood in a Makashi stance. The two sabers illuminated the dark, unused section of the ship, and the sound of the two sabers crashing into one another was the only sound that could be heard, other than the sound of boots against metal.
The assailant with the gold lightsaber delivered elegant parries and precise thrusts, demonstrating great skill with the Makashi style, the mark of a true fencing expert. The unknown Samaritan pressed the attack, countering all of the aggressive moves from the one with the golden saber, pushing the fencer off-balance and onto his or her back heel.
For a time, it was clear that the one with the green saber held a slight advantage, but the fencer soon regained footing and held the green one to a standstill, and even began to press the attack. After a slight adjustment, the fencer was able to parry the counterattacking motions with ease, and push back the green saber. The Makashi style was very much suited for this kind of combat, able to react with flowing, natural motions and offset powerful strikes with ease.
The one with the green saber retreated a bit, and gave the gold-sabered attacker a wide berth. The assailant did not follow, preferring to recover from the sudden unexpected attack. The one with the green saber centered him/herself. Not willing to let the Samaritan regain concentration, the gold-sabered one pressed the attack, and charged forward.
One of the power regulators from the wall of the corridor detached with a shower of sparks, and came streaking toward the gold-sabered assailant. The cloaked figure sidestepped the large, flying object, and cut it to pieces with a reactive swing. Then the cloaked figure continued to advance.
Still meditating, the green-sabered one reached out with the Force, and sent a pile of metal wreckage flying towards the golden fighter. The twisted metal wreckage couldn't be deflected in time, so the golden fighter reached out with the Force and steeled itself, and the debris merely bounced off of its hardened body. The golden fighter continued advancing.
The green fighter's eyes snapped open and out came the green saber once again, this time with both sides of the hilt ignited.
The two figures clashed sabers again, but this time the green fighter detached one side of the lightsaber, and threw the object into the air behind the golden fighter. The saber ignited in midair, and began spinning around like a boomerang. The saber returned to where the two fighters were battling one another, and the golden fighter rolled backwards, out of the way just in time to avoid being sliced to pieces. When the golden fighter stood, the being made a quick motion to deflect the flying green projectile which had returned.
The green fighter continued advancing down the metal walkway, and more power regulators began snapping off of the walls, causing small fires and explosions. The metal objects hurtled toward the golden fighter, one by one, while the spinning green saber continued harassing the fencer. Every so often, the green fighter would deliver an elegant downward cut, forcing the fencer to block the move, and then roll out of the way of another flying object.
Realizing that it was outmatched, the being with the golden lightsaber turned and ran down the hall. The one with the green lightsaber called back the other, and it landed harmlessly in its hand and it was reattached. The flying objects hovered in midair for a moment, until the cloaked being released them from its mental grip. They crashed to the deck, and the green-saber figure watched the attacker flee. It did not pursue.
Bane Anded was wandering the halls when he turned the corner and saw a cloaked figure standing between him and the turbolift. Unsure if he was seen, Bane jumped back behind the corner, and tried to mask his force signature.
The familiar crackle of Force Lightning alerted Bane that he had indeed been spotted. He began to make his way in the opposite direction, trying to escape.
As he bolted down the corridor, he was struck by the second volley of lightning, and it sent him flying face-first into the deck, howling in pain. The cloaked figure rushed forward, taking advantage of Anded's prone state. It prepared to fire another blast.
Bane rolled to his feet and erected a powerful shield, just as the cloaked figure unleashed a third volley of lightning. The force of the blast knocked Bane back a bit, but the shield held. Frustrated, the cloaked figure pushed as deeply as it could into the Force, and unleashed maximum power against Bane. The brilliant, crackling current was completely absorbed by the Force shield, and Bane was able to maintain the shield effectively. When Bane was able to maintain the shield with one hand, and unleash his lightsaber with the other, the cloaked assailant cursed and simply fled the scene.
Bane grinned as he watched the attacker flee. He was alive.
Gith Ranay was keeping watch over the large hangar bay, near the end of Beta shift, when he sensed danger approaching. The airlock opened up, and a cloaked figure entered the hangar, charging directly at Ranay with an emerald lightsaber ignited.
Ranay broke his meditation, and ignited his green lightsaber, and stood in a classic Makashi stance.
His attacker clashed sabers with him, and the two fighters met each other in the Makashi style. What followed was a series of expertly delivered parries, dodges, thrusts, and graceful swings. The two swordsmen battled each other for some time, neither giving an inch. The attacker reached deeper into the Force, and was able to increase strength and valor in combat. However, the fully centered defender was able to offset this power with natural motions, balanced swings, and leveraged parries. The two fighters could not gain an advantage over one another.
It was almost time for the morning meeting, and the attacker was making no progress at all. It performed a graceful backflip out of danger, and ran as fast as it could toward the airlock. After diving through it, the airlock was closed with the Force, and the attacker escaped.

Grandmaster Ronen Durdon sat alone in the darkened Command Center of the ship, meditating. He was aware that two beings had just stepped off the main turbolift, and were approaching the bridge from the port and starboard access doors. He was also aware of another, lying in the shadows.
As he communed with the Force, he saw into the future. He had a vision of things to come. He strengthened his mind, and prepared for battle.
Ronen Durdon: "Prepared for your arrival, I have. I know why you are here. I can sense the Dark Side has clouded your judgment, if you think you are prepared to face me."
First: "It is clear that you are guilty of crimes aboard this vessel. Since you were able to slip past the judgment of the Council, it's become clear that there is only one way to end your reign of terror."
Ronen Durdon: "Terror, say you? Hmmm.... from where comes this terror? The shroud of the Dark Side has blinded you. See not the truth, do you? Resorting to murder to resolve a murder, yes.... if a reign of terror there is, from you, it comes."
Second: "You're not fooling anyone you know. You might have beaten An-Wan Dyas and that one with the purple saber, but are you strong enough to face us?"
Ronen Durdon: "Strong enough to face death without fear, I am. But strong enough are you, to turn back now, before too late it is?"
First: "SHUT UP!!! I've heard enough of that backwards-talk out of you. Do you think that makes you sound intelligent?"
Second: "You're guilty of murdering Jedi, I know this. The time has come for you to answer to justice."
Ronen Durdon: "To whom do you answer, then? Yourselves? Administer justice blindly, do you... how appropriate. And unfortunate."
A third figure stepped out of the shadows, and ignited a purple lightsaber.
Third: "Stand back, traitors of the Council, or I shall be forced to defend Grandmaster Durdon with my life!"
First: "Who is this, Durdon? Your pet dog? Or perhaps, YOUR SITH APPRENTICE!!!"
The first figure raised a hand and unleashed Force Lightning at the Jedi standing between him and the Grandmaster. The crackling Force Lightning hit the young Jedi squarely in the chest, and sent him flying down into the starboard control pit. After a moment of being stunned, the young Jedi jumped out of the pit and returned fire, unleashing a stream of protons at the first cloaked assassin.
Reacting quickly, the cloaked assassin threw up a shield. The protons harmlessly bounced off of the protective field.
First: "You're going to have to do a **** of a lot better than that, fool."
Second: "You're leaving us little choice, young one. I wouldn't want to have to arrest you both...."
Third: "This isn't an arrest, and it isn't lawful either. You might as well drop the pretense, you're nothing but Sith Lords!"
First: "I grow weary of waiting for you to move out of the way. I was saving this for Durdon over there, but if you insist on interfering on our affairs..."
The first cloaked assassin began summoning more energy, and fired Force Lightning again at the interloper. This time, the being was ready, and held its purple lightsaber at just the right angle, in the Soresu stance. The lightning went directly toward the beam, like a lightning rod. What little remained of the stray energy scattered in other directions.
Ronen Durdon: "Good, young Kidou. Use the Force.... stretch out with your feelings."
Third: "Yes, master, I will try."
The interloper returned fire with another beam of charged protons, but the reflective shielding surrounding the first assailant held firmly. However, the act of erecting such a barrier while also firing force lightning caused both to weaken, and allow Wen Kidou to advance while turning back the Force Lightning. Frustrated, the First assailant stopped firing Force Lightning, and began summoning a massive orb of dark energy.
Ronen Durdon: "Feel what dangers lie ahead. You must not give in to your fear, you must control it. Focus instead on turning back these attacks."
First: "Shut up, Durdon! Let this one fight his own battles!"
Third: "I sense pain.... I feel death!"
Ronen Durdon: "It is your future, you see. Do not let it distract you, young master Kidou. Remain in the moment, or lose yourself in it, you will."
First: "Yeah, remain focused so you can face your death with open eyes, Sith!"
The first assassin unleashed the glowing orb of dark energy, and fired it directly at Wen Kidou. Reacting quickly, Wen took his purple lightsaber and swung it as hard as he could at just the right angle, at the center of the orb, reversing its direction and sending it straight back at the first assassin.
The glowing orb of dark energy picked up speed, and the first assassin took out its lightsaber and reflected it straight back at Wen. Wen similarly returned the volley, and the assassin reflected it back. Wen delivered a spinning cut, sending the orb back at its master in a strange arc, making it unreturnable. The dark energy ball slammed into the first assassin's protective shielding, weakening it slightly.
The assassin fired another glowing dark orb of energy, and Wen reflected it back. This time, the assassin didn't bother to deflect it, simply charged up another volley, and another, and began firing them rapidly at Wen Kidou, who delivered them all back to their origin with masterful skill. The protective shielding began to buckle, as the assassin wasn't even bothering to maintain it.
As he began charging up a much larger blast of dark energy, Wen prepared himself, and also began charging up. Kidou jumped out of the way of the huge blast of dark energy, rolled to his feet, and unleashed another beam of brilliant protons at the assassin's weakened shield. This time, the shield collapsed, and the first assassin was hit with the full power of a stunning burst of particles, which ripped through his body. The cloaked being slammed into the wall and knocked unconscious.
Ronen Durdon: "Good.... Good young Kidou. You have proven yourself to be worthy. Were I able to, I would bestow upon you the rank of Master. But I must ask you to leave this place, while you still can."
Third: "What are you saying, Master? We can easily handle the other one, together!"
Ronen Durdon: "Strong enough to face this one, you are not. You must go."
Third: "I'm not leaving without you, Master. I feel that my destiny lies with you."
Second: "Are you quite through playing games, gentlemen? Need I remind you that you're both under arrest? You will disarm yourselves and come with me...."
The second assassin ignited both lightsabers, and stood in an advanced Form VI- Niman stance.
Second: "....Or I will take you into custody by force."
Ronen Durdon: "Kidou, leave NOW! That is an order!"
Wen Kidou: "No, you need help. I won't let this Sith destroy you, Master!"
Second: "So be it. You leave me little choice, your grace...."
Ronen Durdon: "As do you, my old padawan."
The grandmaster ignited his blue lightsaber.
Standing in the usual Form III- Soresu stance, Grandmaster Ronen Durdon prepared for battle against the assassin.
Wen Kidou charged toward the assassin, and leaped over the being, landing on the starboard side of the chamber, blocking the exit to the main turbolift. Now the second assassin was surrounded on two sides. Without flinching, the being with two sabers reached deep into the Force, and doubled its strength and valor, and swiftly moved toward Grandmaster Durdon, with Wen Kidou in hot pursuit.
The saber masters clashed with each other ferociously, in a blur of brilliant blue. It was all Wen could do to keep up with the other two, as the second assassin wisely circled Durdon, keeping Kidou away from its back.
The balanced Niman form allowed the second assassin to easily deflect attacks from Kidou's saber, while focusing almost exclusively on Durdon. Durdon fought mightily, pushing back the assassin, attempting to force the being away from Kidou.
Reaching deep into the Force, Durdon attempted to weaken the assassin with a massive blast of speed and strength. The assassin, backed into a corner, did a flying springboard leap off of the wall behind it, and dove headlong over the heads of the other two, moving back to the center of the chamber.
Wen Kidou attempted to stun the assassin with another beam of protons, but the second assassin erected a similar force shield to the one erected by the other assassin.
The protons bounced harmlessly off of it, and the assassin ran to the port side of the room, over to where the first assassin had fallen, putting Wen Kidou between him/herself and the Grandmaster.
Ronen Durdon: "Stand aside, young Kidou!"
Wen Kidou: "I won't let you harm him."
The second assassin clashed sabers with Wen, who fought valiantly in the Soresu style, like his master. But the two blades were too much for Wen to keep up with, even with mastery of the art of movement. After blocking one blow, he was forced to hold his saber still to prevent the other blade from cutting off his head. The second assassin easily shattered Wen's blade, cutting off his hand in the process. Wen attempted to roll out of the way, but he only ended up getting between the second assassin and Grandmaster Ronen Durdon once again. Saber met flesh, and the blow that was meant for Durdon ended up penetrating Wen Kidou in the chest, and he fell to the ground, mortally wounded.
Ronen Durdon: "Now you have come to punish me for that which you've done yourself. Back down."
Second: "If you had surrendered, none of this would have happened. Worst of all, you knew this was going to happen. You are the one who must back down!"
Ronen Durdon: "Hear you nothing that I say? Very well. The hard lesson, I must teach you."
Glowing with Light, Grandmaster Ronen Durdon tapped deeply into his training, and allowed the Force to flow fully through him. With a sudden burst of strength and precision, and precognition of his opponent's movements, Ronen Durdon sliced completely through the assailant's second lightsaber hilt, rendering it inoperable.
Switching to the Makashi style, the assailant attempted to break through the Grandmaster's defenses once more, but the Grandmaster anticipated every move. Even a second wind and a burst of strength and valor from the assassin did no good. Ronen Durdon had become one with the force.
The light emanating from Durdon was almost more than the assassin could bear, but the assassin closed its eyes and continued to fight, feeling the force and allowing it to guide his/her movements. Nothing could have prepared this assassin for the mastery of this being, who began screaming with power, leaping into the air and flipping over the assassin, bouncing off of the walls, demonstrating a creative mastery of the Soresu form, keeping the blade pointed at his opponent, while moving his body out of range of his opponent's attacks. The Makashi form was meant for fencing, it was not meant for aerial combat. The assassin kept up, demonstrating an impressive amount of skill, but it was clear that the assassin had more left to learn.
Ronen Durdon: "See through you, I can."
With one more swing, Ronen Durdon utterly disarmed the second assassin, shattering the second blade. The assassin backed off, but seemed to be simply in shock that s/he was beaten. The being didn't even try to run. The first assassin began to stir.
Ronen Durdon: "Wish me to teach you the final lesson?"
Upon hearing these words, the assassin fled. Ronen looked down at the fallen Kidou, and attempted to comfort the young Jedi.
Ronen Durdon: "Death is only an illusion. Become part of the Force, you will. Do not fear."
Wen Kidou closed his eyes, and died.
Ronen Durdon: "If leave now you do not, join Kidou you will."
The first assassin grabbed its lightsaber and ran out of the command center, leaving the Grandmaster alone with the Force.

Ronen Durdon- Grandmaster of the Jedi Order

Grandmaster Ronen Durdon greeted the Jedi Council in the morning and began to play back the security hologram recordings for all to see.
"The shroud of the dark side has fallen. Blinded, twisted, have we become. And yet, in the darkness, still there is light. So many Jedi could have been slain, but many of us have prevailed. We lost the brave Wen Kidou, who gave his life to defend my own.
I will not deny that I feel anger towards those who have hurt us. But those feelings will only serve to confuse us and blind us further, with rage. Honor their memories with hasty action, we will not. Find the Sith hiding among us, we must. Bring them before me. Paid with their lives, enough Jedi have. For the Sith, the time to pay their debts is long overdue.
Seek the Dark One, we must. The Force wants this dark master returned to it."
Ronen Durdon ordered the council to begin their discussion, and retreated to study the Jedi Holocron.

Re: Star Wars: Fall of the Order [in play]
Herp derp derp.
I think we can stop voting joooray.
People: send me stuff if you attacked someone. :laugh4:
Vote: Diana
-
....And due to an INCREDIBLE screw-up on my part, Robbiecon is now alive.
Because orders were changed, and I missed them.
Entirely possible someone else is dead. What fun.
:wall:
Pardon me for a moment.
EDIT:
Okay. Long story short:
The attack on Robbiecon never happens. Robbiecon is alive and well.
The attack happens on Bip Kenner instead, and.... he survives.
The defense used was a gigantic field of charged protons. This stuns the attacker long enough for Kenner to escape.
I'm so depressed by this mistake that I don't have the creative energy to re-write all this.
This mistake is mostly my fault, and I apologize for it. I realize how big a screw-up this is, and what the reason for it was. It can happen to any host where quicktopic-based orders are involved. But it's my fault.
Unfortunately I might have to make a minor balancing adjustment now, after talking things over with the Sith. This is too big a screw-up to just pass by. The compensation will be minor, but there's gotta be some.
Continue play. Writeup edited.

Re: Star Wars: Fall of the Order [in play]
Diana Abnoba has still not given a satisfactory defense. Vote: Diana Abnoba
-
Re: Star Wars: Fall of the Order [in play]
Everyone should have role updates.
If I made any further mistakes, please let me know.
I'm going to go hide under my couch now.

Re: Star Wars: Fall of the Order [in play]
ATPG - the only way to fix this travesty is to reincarnate me as a Zombie-Jedi boss of the secret cow level.

Re: Star Wars: Fall of the Order [in play]
vote: Diana
third time in a row, I believe. Still the same reasons
-
Re: Star Wars: Fall of the Order [in play]
Vote: Diana Abnoba for the same reasons as I did previously: Being busy IRL does not mean she is Innocent.

Re: Star Wars: Fall of the Order [in play]
Hmm, can't say I wasn't expecting to die. Don't suppose you need anyone replaces Pizza?
