GM Approved!!!

Name: Kay Koda
Age: 28
Gender: Male
Species: Human
Homeworld: Wayland
Rank: Knight
Languages: Basic, Mandalorian, Zabraki, Miralukese

Traits
Personality: Kay has a stern look to him, but this is off-set by his warm and friendly demeanor that he greets everyone with. Kay is content with his life and what he is doing to serve the galaxy, but that is not to say that he is unserious, Kay is professional and commanding when he needs to be, especially in battle. He also has a very strong set of values, such as loyalty, respect, and responsibility.
Habits/Mannerisms: Kay has a very good sense of humor about him and knows how to have a good time even with other Jedi. His training of initiates has made him calmer and more patient over the years.
Likes/Dislikes: Kay likes hiking in the wilderness and exploring the world around him, sometimes taking long hikes that can last days at a time. But besides his love for the wilderness, Kay has one other love, playing cards, sometimes convincing the initiates and apprentices to play with him. And even though he is a Jedi, Kay enjoys a drink once and a while. He was never a fan of hyperspace travel, or flying in general for that matter, he preferred to mostly travel by foot when going anywhere
Strengths and Weaknesses: Kay is a fierce warrior and a brilliant tactician, but sometimes he tends to follow his emotions rather than reason.
Physical Strengths and Weaknesses: Though Kay’s muscles are very toned, he is not some big, bulky tank, he has trained each muscle of his body for a function, whether it be improving his speed in combat or his ability to lift. He does suffer much though from a lightsaber wound he received a few years ago to his thigh; the tenants and muscle have still not fully recovered from the wound despite what the Jedi Healers have done for him, it doesn’t both Kay much but sometimes the wound flares up and causes him to limp. He also received a wound from a vibro sword to his left shoulder that still bothers him on occasion.

Looks:
Appearance: Kay is fairly tall and fit. His muscles have been toned by the years of training that his body has endured. Kay’s skin is tanned from the time he spends out in the wilderness exploring, his yes are green, but hold a sense of kindness and understanding behind them, as well as a twinkle of ferocity. His face is slightly rugged but still looks youthful, most of it contributes to his five o’clock shadow he has most of the time. His nose is straight and of medium size for a male. Kay’s looks do not help him in his training, as sometimes the younger female Jedi develop crushes on him, this sometimes causes Kay some embarrassment, but Kay understands their just young girls and he goes on teaching despite their giggles and eyelash batting.
Eye Color: Green
Hair Color: Brown
Hair Style: Cut short in a military style
Skin Color: Caucasian but fairly tanned
Height: 6’1
Clothing: Tradition Jedi Robes

Personal History
Biography: Kay was not brought to the temple as many force prospects are, instead he found it. Kay was an orphan, alone on the streets, with no parents or guardians to look after him. He had been living in the gutters since he escaped from the orphanage. But one stormy night when Kay was alone, cold, and hungry, he passed out from exhaustion on the steps of the temple. It was here that he began his life as a Jedi. The Jedi healers who looked after him tested his Midichlorian levels, which had the level of a Jedi prospect and his recovery rate was phenomenal. After reporting to the head Master, it was agreed that Kay would be able to undergo training.

This was hard for Kay at the beginning due to his independent lifestyle he had picked up on the streets. He refused to listen to some of the Masters and open up is mind, and in some cases got into fights with other students. But one day the Grand Master held a personal meeting with Kay that lasted for days as he taught Kay the significance of the Force and how he had to learn to trust his masters. It was after this 3 day long meeting that Kay finally understood and accepted his niche in the galaxy. It was then that he committed himself to his studies throughout his training as a youngling up through padawan. He obeyed the masters, and learned as much as he could from them, sometimes having private meetings with them to learn more of the Force. But besides the Force, Kay committed himself mainly to lightsaber combat and training and learning the seven forms. Along the way Kay picked up many other skills such as studying languages and becoming quite fluent in most of them.

Kay reached the rank of Knight at the age of 22, where he went on many peacekeeping missions for the Order, and proved himself in battle time and time again. Many considered Kay to be one of the best lightsaber wielders in the Order. Kay was even chosen to teach initiates in the use of the lightsaber, teaching them the basics. It was here that Kay formed many bonds with his students, who trusted in him and wanted to learn from him, much like he wanted to when he was an initiate. Kay was even on the fast track to achieving the rank of Master, but this way of life did not last long; war was upon them, the Shadow War. Kay, as well as many other Jedi, followed the new Grand Master, Malloren Chi-Ba, into the Unknown Regions to begin the New Jedi Trials in the Unknown.

Lightsaber:
Blade Type: Single
Blade Color: Blue
Combat Forms: Knows all forms but prefers Juyo, Ataru, and Makashi
Force Strengths: Since Kay found himself on the front lines of battles, he preferred to train in battle oriented force powers, such as Battlemind, Battle Precognition, and Force Light
Force Weaknesses: Because Kay chose to learn about the more combatice ways of the force, it limited him in other force powers. Though now that Kay tries to learn these powers, such as Force Healing and Mind Trick.

OOC: I have a couple questions.
1. Are NJT members carrying over their ranks? In other words am I still a Council Member?
2. Who does all these CS's belong to? I can figure out a couple from the names, but the rest I have no idea.

GM Approved! dancing

Name: Grush Terk
Age: 36
Gender: Male
Species: Togruta
Homeworld: Unknown

Physical Description: Grush stands at approximately 1.9 meters tall. He wears typical brown Jedi robes, with a hood that is large enough to go over his larger-sized head (compared to other species). On his belt is a hook for his lightsaber to dangle on, a small utility belt and his comlink. He wears thick boots made out of hide from a species only found on a planet somewhere in the Outer Rim that go up over halfway to his ankles. On his left arm, he has a tattoo of the NJT insignia marked there as a sign of loyalty to the cause of the Order.

Personality:
Likes: Reading, the NJT, piloting, eating, modifying things
Dislikes: Run-on conversations, smugglers, bounty hunters, Sith, selfish acts
Strengths: Literacy, mechanics, piloting
Weaknesses: speaking in front of a lot of people, hunger, survival missions

Rank: Master

Lightsaber:
-blade: green
-hilt: silver with two blue stripes down the side to add a personal mark.
Additional weapons: One DC-15 blaster hidden in his robes, survival knife, thermal detonators, can run large energy weapons such as cannons
Personal starfighter: Grush owns an unnamed starfighter that looks similar to the ARC-170's from the Clone Wars. A one-man fighter, the cockpit is oval-shaped, with certain functions on control panels lining the inside that Grush can activate using his hands, the Force or a small hardwired droid that can run the ship in case of emergency. It has a Class-1.5 hyperdrive, and advanced landing gear so that it can land in almost any conditions possible. As far as weapons, it boasts two medium laser cannons on the wingtips, a light rear cannon, a concussion missile launcher and an ion cannon mounted on the bottom of the craft. A decent sensor suite rounds out the fighters capabilities, providing rudimentary jamming capabilities, life form detectors and scanners. If the systems on the ship overloaded and became dead, the cockpit could serve as an escape pod, but with rather low sublight speed, and going to hyperspace would take twice as long.

Bio: Grush’s home planet is unknown, because he was adopted by a family at less than a year of age. As he grew up, he was always curious why he didn’t look like his siblings, and he pestered his adopted parents with questions about it. When they never gave him a response he was hoping for, he decided to give up on the quest, instead focusing on his other interests and letting the species question go to rest, although he was still curious about it. One of his interests was fixing things; at only five years of age, he was able to put complicated things back together, sometimes modifying them to increase the total output. At this time, he was discovered to have untapped Force potential. However, nothing was done about it for quite a while, and this too was a dangling question that Grush didn’t quite understand.

As a teenager, Grush took courses on flight and mechanics, looking to try and make a living my fixing ships. However, as these classes wore on, he shifted his focus to piloting, which he found much more fun than studying manuals all day and switching out parts. Still, he decided to keep taking the mechanics class to have it as a skill if necessary. His flight training steadily improved, and his instructors took notice of his progress, moving him up to harder exercises that some thought seemed excessive and harsh for someone of his skill level. However, he passed each one of them, not always perfectly, but he got the job done each time.

As an adult, Grush’s Force potential got him noticed again, this time by the founding members of the New Jedi Trials Order, who saw great potential in his abilities. They took him to their testing lab, which wasn’t much at the time, and decided to run some aptitude tests on him; he passed easily, and they extended an invite to join them and take the Jedi way of life as his own. Seeing it as a way to travel the galaxy and keep the peace, Grush joined the group, starting out as an Initiate. This phase lasted for a year, as Grush had to learn the ways of the Force, before being assigned a Master for more advanced training. When he was assigned as a Padawan, his training lasted for five years, ending up with him being promoted to Knight status.

When he was a Knight, Grush trained a Padawan, teaching them enough to graduate and become a Knight themselves. Eyeing great things for him, the Council promoted Grush to the rank of Master, a rank which he currently holds. As a Master, Grush feels like he has more of an opportunity to achieve what he had dreamed of when he joined; he wasn’t as constrained with a full-time student following him everywhere he went, so he had time to fly in his custom-built fighter, which he had built from plans stashed away in old Imperial archives. Although he has many tasks to do as a Master, Grush still finds time to fly his fighter and add small modifications to it.

GM approved

Name: Grosh Crander
Age: 32
Gender: Male
Species: Human/Mandalorian
Homeworld: Coruscant

Personality: Usually an easy going person, Grosh has been known to fly off the handle about things that irritate him.
Habits/mannerisms: When in difficult situations, Grosh tries to crack jokes to ease the tension a bit, something he learned in the military. He also speaks Mando'a from time to time, his second language.
Likes/Dislikes: Grosh likes a good ale and good friends. Given his expertise with demolitions and heavy weapons, he likes to tinker with these items to see if he can make them work better. Grosh does not like people that abuse or mistreat others.
Strengths and Weaknesses: While being physically strong, Grosh is also mentally strong, making it hard for Force users to use any kind of mind influence on him. His traditional Mandalorian armor, Beskar'gam, is nearly impervious to lightsaber attacks and blaster rounds, helping in close quarters combat. Grosh does have a weakness for women, especially those in trouble. Also, not being a Force user, he can be at a disadvantage at times against Sith opponents.
Physical strengths and weaknesses: Grosh is at his physical fitness peak, and takes very good care of himself. He has suffered a few cracked ribs from explosions that went bad, and one time injured his ankle. During cold weather his ankle hurts and he walks with a slight limp, but he tries to not let it bother him.
Appearance: Standing about 6'4" with a military posture, Grosh can be an imposing figure. He has short black hair with silver specks. His eyes are dark green and look even deeper because of his tanned skin. He has a tattoo indicating his demolitions expertise.
Rank: None, non-Force user; Co-Pilot of Icy Truth
Weapons: Heavy repeating blaster, modified hand blaster, vibroblade, and any demolitions ordinance.
Bio: As soon as he turned 18, Grosh entered military service with the Sith Empire, mostly to get away from Coruscant. In the military he learned many traits, but seemed to excel at demolitions. Serving for three years, he and a small band of other specially trained soldiers went rogue. The group stayed together four years, calling themselves Theta Squad. They came and went as they pleased, still on the records of the Sith Empire, but not reporting to anyone directly. Finally Grosh grew tired of sneaking around in the military and decided to leave. After searching different planets and having many different jobs, Grosh came to know Taryn Jeando. After some time, Grosh joined Taryn on his ship Icy Truth
. Grosh and Taryn became good friends, and eventually Grosh became co-pilot. He still likes to get his hands dirty, helping where ever is needed, especially if it requires blowing things up.

IC: Malloren Chi-Ba

Chu’unthor

Control Room



Malloren replaced the comlink in its’ holder on her utility belt. Her ship was waiting for her at the hatch she entered. But before she left, she wanted to have a further look around.
With her feet hooked under the desk she was at, she took the liberty to take a better look around her. The Chu’unthor looked very old, yet not dated. The screen that had showed the last video message was still blinking green. She typed in a basic command, and the ships diagnostics came up. The fuel tank was half full and all power was functional, but had been shutdown.
Typing in a few more commands the lights came on, then the life support, then the grav sensors. Unprepared she fell to the ground, throwing her arms out to break her fall.

“Ow!”, she exclaimed, rubbing her wrists. She was glad no one was around to see that happen. It wouldn’t look good for the Grandmaster to do something as simple as falling over.

She raised herself off the ground, and continued observing other diagnostics. The ship was very large with over 100 different compartments for many different uses- half the ship was taken up by the engine and hyperdrive.

As she was trying to determine what state the hull was in, the lights suddenly blinked out! She felt herself float up into midair, with grav sensors apparently out too. She grabbed onto the desk before she could go too far.

Clunk!

She whipped her head around to the noise. Instead of calling out, she used the Force to reach out and feel what was near... She felt nothing. Confused she looked around, deciding what to do next. She surmised that the power had gone out. She would need mechanics and repair droids to get the ship back together. She decided to make her way back to her ship.

Pulling herself over to the door to the control room, she rolled under it and out the other side. She let herself float to the ceiling again in order to use the piping to pull herself along.

As she began floating up...whoosh! A strong wisp of air floated past her, sending her tumbling down the hallway. She used the Force to thicken the air and stop her hurtling down the hallway. She reached out to see if there was anything nearby. There was nothing. Yet something wasn’t right. There was an eerie silence surrounding her. She sensed danger...she had to get back to her own ship. Quickly, and quietly she pulled herself down the hallway, turned right heading towards the hatch she had entered.

She used the Force to feel for obstacles and dangers ahead. A sense of urgency overwhelmed her and she quickened her pace as much as she could, the overwhelming silence enveloping her.

whistle

A stream of air came down the hallway she was in, blowing her hair onto her face. She bent her head and put her hand up in front of her face to protect her eyes. The whistling was so loud she couldn’t hear anything else. She looked up, and saw something...a figure, making her towards her.
She couldn’t make out what it was, but as it came close she sensed malcontent coming from it. The air dissipated and went who knows where in a ship with no life support on.
She raised her hand and used the Force, stretching out to the pale figure coming towards her to halt its’ approach...

...it had absolutely no affect on it whatsoever. Worried now, she turned and hurried faster towards the hatch, using the Force to help her along. She could hear heavy breathing and it was coming closer and closer.

She reached the hatch and yanked it open. Her colleague was there waiting for her with his hand reaching out to help her into her ship.
As she reached for him, their fingers almost touching each other, she was all of a sudden pulled back fast through the hatch, a look of horror on her face, and with a woosh- Slam! the hatch snapped shut.

IC: Taryn Jeando

Two days ago a ship in the fleet went out of contact with the rest of the network... The ships hyperdrive generator leaked radiation and killed the pilot and his copilot without a sound. Nobody really knew the two men and when the ships files were searched they came up with nothing on these two people. It was a very sad thing, to die alone, with nobody left to remember you and what you did. I don't want that to happen to myself and my crew so that is why I am starting this captain's log. To chronicle my life as a Jedi and that of my crew.

My crew, a rather rag-tag group of beings thrown together out of desperation, and necessity. I have known my crew for a good number of years now and I would give my life for any one of them. We serve aboard the Icy Truth a heirloom of sorts from my late family. I never knew my family for they died when I was a baby and I was taken in by the Jedi. Four years ago my ship was delivered to me by a man named Grosh Crander who was hired by the local police of my home world to deliver the ship. After he completed his task he requested that he be able to stay along with the ship. Grosh is my co-pilot and most trusted friend. He has pulled me out of countless situations with the help of his mando lineage. My communications droid Ar-four Cee-nine is a relic of a astromech droid but he does his job well and enthusiastically. That is the basic background of my crew and how we got here, but who knows where here even is.

We have been exiled from our galaxy and are roaming the unknown regions for an place we can call home. A safe haven to train and live. We dropped out of hyperspace a few hours ago and after doing all post-jump status checks I suggested to my crew that they get some rest in case we need the extra energy later. Grand Master Malloren Chi-Ba went in her personal shuttle to explore a giant ship that we think might be able to suit our needs as a new home. It has been a few hours since any fleet wide communications have been sent out, but there has been no ripples in the force. Surely if something were going wrong the grand master would send us a warning in the force. I guess all we can do is wait and hope for the best.

--Captains Log 1--


Standing up from her small desk inside her private quarters Taryn walked to the front of her ship to find Grosh sitting in his co-pilot chair watching a holo from the Grand Masters pilot. Taryn watched intently and after seeing the whole thing play through twice she said "What do you make of that Grosh? She got sucked back into the ship but she did not send out any force warnings... She didn't even send out so much as a twitch. She ordered the fleet to stand bye but if she is in danger maybe she cant call for help. What do you think we should do?"

"Ar-four see if you can raise the council members, see what they think we should do... In the mean time Grosh I'm going to bring us in a little closer to see if we can either raise the Grand Master on her comlink or maybe feel something in the force."

Tag: Everybody

Karn Fell lifted the man in the cantina up with one arm pointing his saber another smuggler. He looked into the other mans eyes, he yelled at him "Where is it, where is the Icy Truth."

"I...I swear i dont know where it is." said the bounty hunter.

"You dont know or you dont remember. Maybe I can help you remember." Karn began to choke the man.

"I...I...I followed it to...to the Unknown reigion but I...I left it after..." the man lasped into unconciousness.

Karn tossed the man onto the table and force pushed the other into a booth. Karn walked back towards his ship. As he walked into his hanger bay he felt a blaster wedge into his back.

"Give me all your money"

Karn turned around and looked straight into the eyes of a child.

"Give me all your money" the boy said again.

Although the boy couldn;t ha ve been more than eight years old, he still had the blaster which was the problem. "You dont want to use that on me." Karn waved his hand and the boy dropped the gun and went unconcious.

"Oops." Karn felt bad, mind tricks werent his thing and he had a tendency to over power them. Then he went to his X _ Wing and went off towards the unknown reigion in search of an Icy Truth.

~Inside his coralskipper on a freighter in the Jedi fleet~


Dann-I was slouching comfortably in the pilot chair of his coralskipper, long legs stretched before him, feet propped on the console in front of him. All around him he felt the quiet peacefulness of the ship. It liked having him inside and he liked being inside it whenever they were in hyperspace.

In hyperspace he was lonely in a way he never was in real space, when all around him he could sense life, humming, vibrating, a myriad of different songs all woven into one beautiful whole, the Living Force, connecting them all. Connecting him.

In hyperspace he felt cut off. All he could sense were those on board the freighter. He felt the Living Force still out there, somewhere deep in the back of his mind, but it wasn’t the same as being close to the life filling the galaxy.

So he sat in his coralskipper as often as he could, let the living ship surround him and somehow, with the Force fallen so far away from him, he could sense the coralskipper stronger than ever. Not through the Force, but in a different way, one he couldn’t quite understand.

It didn’t matter how it happened. With the hangar pitch black outside his ship’s window, being inside it gave him the illusion of sitting in a cave at night, on a planet full of life.

He put his hand against the wall of the ship and it immediately responded with a flush of warmth. Yes, she was completely healthy, a far cry from the pitiful wreckage he had found years ago. She had fed the last time they were in real space. She would be ready to fly as soon as they left hyperspace again.

A shock went through the ship, a shock that didn't come from her, but from the freighter. He smiled when he felt the Living Force flood back inside him, filling him. They had left hyperspace. He pulled his feet from the console and got out of the pilot chair.

“I have to leave, Yorik,” he told the coralskipper. He didn’t really know the Yuuzhan-Vong language, but he knew that Yorik was their name of the life form the ship was primarily made of, so that’s what he had called her first when he had found her, hurt and dying, in orbit around a small, dead planet at the Outer Rim. After he had managed to slowly heal her back to health, it had stuck.

“But don’t worry, we’ll soon fly on our own again.” He actually looked forward to it. So did she, he could feel it in her soft presence still filling a part of his mind. She opened the hatch for him and he jumped out. Immediately the hangar filled with light, triggered by the motion detectors. As he jogged through the hangar, dodging around the many items stored in it, he felt a song stronger than all others in the warm hum of the Living Force. They were approaching a planet, one full of life.

He smiled. Maybe, just maybe, the Jedi had finally found their new home.


------------------------------


Hours later Dann-I stood with some of the others, staring through one of the view ports in the small dining and recreation area of the freighter. From here they had an excellent view on the planet they had found. Dann-I thought it looked beautiful. But what interested those beside him wasn’t the planet itself, it was a huge, flat and strangely designed ship that hung in orbit above it, lightless, lifeless.

It was this strange ship that was supposed to become their new home, not the planet.

Dann-I again gave the planet a last look with quiet longing before he escaped the growing crowd, all curious about the mysterious ship.

He felt a deep disappointment. Not with the mission, he knew it was the right thing to do for the Jedi, find a place to start anew - but he longed with a deep longing for true, planet born air in his lungs and soil beneath his feet. He could only hope there would be visits to the planet as well.
