    my GM... he his cool, we used a hand full of house rules on my character, considering he had unique abilities (using dark side powers without gaining DSPs, all those martial arts maneivers, etc)

    after doing the math on your system, and adding a few things, im around 13th level

    Back story: Ping was left on the steps of a monastery. The monks took her in and taught her their ways, and she proved an adept pupil. When Luke Skywalker came to ask if any of the masters would be interested in teaching combat to the students, they refused, prefering solitude and meditation. But Skywalker realized Ping's potential to learn to use the Force, and he invited her to return with him. Sensing the correctness of that path, she accepted. She recently was made apprentice to Jedi Knight Wanabe, and will be accompanying her on missions.

    *enters in, white robes flowing around her, stands before the Council. She lowers her hood and her dark eyes scan the room. She bows*

    Greetings Fellow Jedi. I am Kariha, also known here as Obi-Wan's Angel.
    I come to you from the rp message boards at StarWars.com...*hangs head sadly* which I am afraid are going to collaps shortly. I had to leave my husband, my children and my Padawan and my place on the Jedi Council...before the destructions began...I wish to come here.

    My bio will begin shortly....

    This is my Biograghy as posted on the rp boards at StarWars.com

    :::Name: Jedi Master Kariha Fortune ( Obi-Wan's Angel )

    Age: Unknown ( was around during old order, looks young )

    Sex: Female

    Clothing: Form fitting white pants and long sleeve shirt (like the one Padme wears in Ep.II) white Jedi cloak, black belt and black knee high boots. ALWAYS wears a different pendant from each Padawan she has trained.

    Appearance: dark brown hair, piercing dark brown eyes, darkish skin that usually has a dim golden glow, tall and lean yet somewhat muscular.

    Weapons: Navy Blue lightsaber that is emotion-sensitive and a vibroshiv strapped to the leg

    Ship: T65 X-Wing " THE RAY "

    Background:
    I have no specific age, being a creature from the moons of Iego, but lets just say that I am young, but like that Queen Amidala, I am wise beyond my years.
    My homeworld is one of the moons of Iego. I can have a material body, and most of the time I choose it but I can at any time take my natural form. When a teenage Obi-Wan Kenobi visited my homeworld with his Master, Qui-Gon Jinn, I was told by my superior at the Temple on my planet, that Obi-Wan was very important to the future of the Force, something that we are more in tune with than the Jedi. Being the best in my classes, I was assigned to Obi-Wan. It way my turn to be a Guardian. Obi-Wan grew up knowing about me and became even more in tune with me in his final years on Tatooine...but I assure you, many things he has escaped was not ONLY the Force, but me. I knew how he was going to die and that ripped my heart into pieces. When he died, I was told to move on and become a new Jedi in the new Order to come. I stayed on my planet during Imperial Rule and waited out the Jedi victory.
    When my orders came, I joined the New Jedi Order.

    Afterword:
    I became a Council Member on the New Jedi Order Council quickly after joining, took on my first Padawan in the new order, Jedi Karen, who is now a Jedi Knight.
    I then married Jedi Master Tedan Fortune and we had a son, but before his birth he was murdered by the Emperor Dark Lord. My life here is difficult, I had been seduced by the darkside and by the new empires leader, Darth Viru. I had allowed my life Force to dwindle and I lost my capability to be in material form, or as humans would call it, death. I soon returned when my energy was high again. Disapointed and angry at myself, I somehow separated the darkness within me and she became an entirely new figure, her name is Carina. Tedan has left on a mission and has been gone over 10 years but he has returned only days ago. We have just had our first daughter, Gabriael. In Tedan's absence, another Jedi Master started to watch over me, Maverick. I soon learned that he had fallen in love but had restrained from telling me until we both believed Tedan would never return. Maverick went crazy and is now falling to the dark side...and I feel I must save him. Still during Tedan's absense, I took on another Padawan, BlackCat, only to find that he was too angry and not fit to be a Jedi. I took another Padawan, Josh Windu, who turned on me and went to the darkside and later returned to the Jedi. Soon after, I took another Padawan, Artesis Ra'kor who was murdered before my first lesson with him. Phobos, the Master of the sith apprentice who murdered Artesis, kept his body from me and transformed him into a Sith Cyborg warrior. I still have a Padawan, Keijen Blade. My personal weapons are stealth and wisdom and my ultimate goal is to help wipe the galaxy out of the Sith.
    That is why I am a Jedi.

    nah, you got it wrong, it was part of my character, if I wanted to use a power without gaining a dark side point, my character had to spend a few hours studying some sections in a anicent holocron, spend 10-20 hours in meditation, and pay alot of character points and force points

    this didnt prevent my character from gaining points from evil actions, and this only applied to this one character

    Drawback is that the stuff weighs 50 kilos and only two sets were ever made. The untweaked stats are at swrpgnetwork.com - I combined a few things for the accessories. Sunder 9 was the early precursor to Spacetrooper armor. The original d6 stats were from Gundark's Fantastic Technology.

    Name: Mykael Shone
    Species: male human
    Homeworld: Lynfar
    Type: NRI agent, later fighter ace
    Description: 1.8 meters tall, gangly, dark brown hair, left eye brown, right eye brownish-gold, tan-skinned, clothing varies but usually he wears a leather swoop jacket or a flight duster. Often seen wearing a white scarf.
    No Force sensitivity
    Weapons: DL-44 blaster pistol, SH-9 silenced slugthrower (10 shots, damage 2d8, range 8 meters, DC 12 check to hear shots), Prax Arms 2VX dart pistol (fires stun, lethal, and homing beacon darts), vibroknife.
    Equipment: Heavily souped-up datapad with tracking system, encrypted wrist comm, medpac, flightsuit.
    Skills: Very good with con and bluff, starship piloting and repair.
    Basic character description: Sarcastic, streetwise, fast on his feet, highly disrespectful towards authority. Born actor. Rigid sense of judgement, lotta pride and self-confidence.

    Bio: Mykael Shone was the son of a Clone Wars fighter ace and the first Imperial Governor of the Outer Rim mining and manufacturing world of Lynfar. Despite being an early supporter of Palpatine, Mykael's father helped organize the Lynfar Resistance and later incorporated it into the Alliance. Luckily, he had manged to isolate himself from contact with the Resistance, for the Imperial Security Bureau cracked the Lynfar Resistance and scattered the few remnants of the cell network a few months after Yavin. The Shone family, "appalled" at the "horrific Rebel conspiracy", took a private shuttle and moved to Pantolomin, with the sector Moff wishing them good luck at the landing pad. Mykael went to university on Pantolomin to major in psychology and drama, after which he was recruited as an operative by NRI Special Threats. Mykael spent nearly four years in the field with the NRI, snooping on Hutt crime lords, slavers, gunrunners, warlords, pirates, and the Empire. He was on Coruscant, having temporarily joined a swoop gang to gauge the state of the populace in the planet's lower levels, when the New Republic took the planet. After that, though, he took an assignment tracking the notorious bounty hunter Alion Sangre, which ended in a confused firefight that nearly killed the agent, although this wasn't the first time he'd been rushed to the nearest NR outpost or med frigate. During the New Republic's campaign to retake Warlord Zsinj's territory in the wake of the Battle of Dathomir, Mykael was sent to his homeworld, where he soon found himself caught between Zsinj's Raptor commandos, forces loyal to High Admiral Teradoc, and an Imperial Intelligence operation. It didn't help that his teenage crush was heading up the Imperial Intel team. After completing his assignment and killing the Imperial agent, only escaping due to the intervention of his boss, Major Sunnar Jan-lo, who called in a few favors with the fighter commander of Ackbar's task force, Mykael resigned from the NRI. Soon after, he joined Colonel Keyan Farlander, who had led the rescue at Lynfar, as a member of the first E-wing combat squadron, the Loose Cannons, during the Thrawn campaign. Mykael held an active commission in Starfighter Command until the Chimaera Accords, when he retired from the service as a colonel and took up flying cargo runs for Twin Suns Transportation in a modified YT-1300 light freighter, the Solo Run. With the Vong invasion, he took up flying fighters again as the commander of a fighter group (4 wings) based off the SSD Lusankya.
