Do we have the scoundrel/madman Jedi yet? I think it may be a bit of a challenge, because Jedi are usually quite the opposite of scoundrels and madmen. I volunteer, if you'll have me! Maybe it could be a Rhodian, 'cause I like those scoundrels!

Or maybe even a Hutt...nahhh. A Rhodian? Pleeease? Can I?

Hello, there. My other name (Bullwinkle) was deleted yesterday, so I'm using this alias.

The scoundrel Jedi isn't an actual Jedi, he just wants to be one. I guess he could be a Rodian.

Anyway, I'm gonna go write up the profiles of the two villagers who seek the help of the Jedi/Samurai.

you sound ambitious in wanting to create this rodan wanna be.
i gotta say evil-sith's character is the wanna be but your proposal is cool.
so go ahead and make him dude!
and welcome to the group!
thanks for making the 2 villagers(city dwellers? whatever.)bullwinkle. guess i need to use your other name now huh?
and that means 2 more jedi. I want these guys to be full fledged knights by the way.
also now i think we need to determin where are the smugglers atacking. the outer rim sure sure.
but is it a planet they want? a town? these 2 villagers need a place to come from. now we have to design the place the jedi are hired to protect.
lemme here your ideas.

Here's the villagers. They should fit in nicely wherever we decide the village will be.

Name: Wurgysk Dok'sal
History: An aging and jovial Bothan with several degrees in accounting, Wurgysk is a retired Republic Internal Revenue agent and has become the guy to turn to in the village when tax day comes. He's in charge of recording all the imports and exports of finance, property, and supplies and can crunch numbers faster than most, even though he's starting to slow. Pretty handy with a computer as most of his species are, he runs a small computer repair shop where he moonlights as the CPA for the villagers.
Profile: With dull gray fur and a scratchy voice, Wurgysk has far since left his prime behind, but keeps himself in good physical shape. His wife died a few years ago, leaving him with two sons who have, since, married and gotten their own families. He lives alone in the small room above his shop and is often quite bored with his retirement life, wishing he could see more of the galaxy, wishing he could gather all the lost time he wasted away in a desk job with the RIRS. This is why he was the first to volunteer to travel from the village and find the help of whatever Jedi he could find.

Name: X3-2D, "Tudee"
History: A ramshackle 3PO unit, Tudee was built about twenty-two years ago, by an old mechanic in Nar Shaddaa. He was sold to the village elder as a translator and protocol droid, and has since been the teacher of the young students at the village, also assisting in translating different languages for newcomers to the village.
Profile: Tudee is very pessimistic, though he tries to hide his dread and feelings of inevitable doom by telling pathetic puns when he is nervous, even if no one is listening. He is also very bitter, thinking the Force abandons all beings not biological and that the Force That Be has a grudge against him for some pre-programming crime. His exterior reflects his interior: his once gold-and-silver "skin" is brown and cruddy, dented and worn from countless years of rust and ineptitude. Tudee thinks the idea that Jedi will help them is ludicrous; everyone knows the Jedi despise actual work and loaf around like barons, harassing other beings like they were peons. He devoutly loyal to the villagers, though, and will especially obey the Elder.

very good!!!
nice work bullwinkle!!!
I couldent have asked for two better charcaters.

now we will need the 2 more jedi and then of course the 2 sith.
I'll do one of the sith for now. anybody who wants to do the other is obviously welcome to.

and also for the village mabey we can have a planet with a forest/endor setting.
but of course they will have technology.
think about that.
great job!!!

I can write one or more of the sith if no one else wants to. I've even got another nick I can use for posting them.

I think that the BadGuys should want a whole planet, or at least a continent. This is SW after all. Think big. And I like the killed the Hutt and went out on their own idea.

I really have some nice ideas for the Rodian Jedi. Whether he will be the scoundrel or an experienced Jedi, doesn't really make a big difference.

His name is Matto Kozazi and he has always been an outcast on Rodia. His parents were Rodian nobility, and members of the clan of the Grand Protector Horrobo Kyl, but they gave him away to some old beggar right after birth because of what they deemed "a horrible disfigurement": he had a slightly brown-reddish skin, which is absolutely unacceptable for a Rodian, because they all have the same green skin.

This beggar knew there was something special about the child, and when a Jedi Master came to Rodia as an embassador to negotiate between two factions whose "War Games" ( a favorite Rodian pastime) had got out of hand, he entrusted him with the young boy. He then told him young Matto's story and begged to bring him back to Rodia when he would have become a full-fledged Jedi Knight, to save the oppressed Rodian population from the mad elite.

Matto Kozazi took a red lightsaber to go with the color of his skin; his Jedi Master, whose name was Alamin Dei Bar, was a very wise and experienced pink-skinned Ortolan, and he waited to tell his Padawan learner of his heritage until he was mature and could see things in the proper perspective.
Unfortunately, Matto once overheard his master talking to another master about him, and decided to run off to Rodia, to claim his heritage.

Matto ended up leading one of the rivalling parties in a mindless War Game, and upon overthrowing the previous rulers, he came to realize the futility of his endeavours, because now another clan would rule, with no more common sense than the last one, and with the same lack of respect for their citizens' needs. He then ran off, and eventually ended up with our gang.

Matto has become obsessed with a certain famous Rodian play that was written by the great Rodian writer Ambalo Bokk, and thinks it symbolizes his fate.

Whaddayathink?

If no one else has any ideas, I'd be happy to do the Sith apprentice.

Well, I think at least one of the Sith should probably be Human, but the other should be something like a Dug, yeah, a Dug. That would be cool.

I'll write up the Dug Sith. So, Bullwinkle, if you're doing the apprentice that means that the Dug will be the Master Sith?

sounds like you guys got it coverd.
I think the aprentice should be human.
bullwinkle will have to work that specal magic once again to get another plantinum character.
also why do you think the bandits/smugglers in our case are rading this planet?
in 7 samurai it was for crops women and good recklessnes. in our story what does the planet have that is wanted? we still havent figured that out.

Hmm... I never realized it before, but Dugs would make for interesting Sith (if I'm correct in believing that Sebulba was the Dug Anakin was referring to in TPM).

I think the pirates should probably be after the villagers for food, women, and good recklessness. Some things never change, especially the driving factor for criminals.

I'd be happy to do the apprentice Darth, or the master, whichever one you guys want me to do.
