(It's a hilarious image, one which I don't want to dispel) I wouldn't doubt that he'd actually create a character like that, but like, what would he put in the backstory? "Makise Kurisu attempted to use the Time Machine instead of Hououin Kyouma, causing the World Lines to drastically shift, causing the Time Machine to malfunction, launching her to a long time ago in a galaxy far far away. Upon arrival she was picked up by a Jedi Knight who noticed that she was sensitive in the Force." 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's the Light, the Gray, and the Dark. The Sith are mostly just Jedi who've gone to the Dark Side (excluding the actual Sith race). Unless we go back to the times of the Je'daii Order, everyone should be a Jedi. It wasn't meant to be a claim, just an exclamation towards childhood fantasies. But I can second that feeling, Cat5, so I'm not opposed to hitting you with my plasma swords. And it'll be a fair fight since my character isn't meant for combat either. Plus I'm interested to see what you came up with for your character's backstory considering that you know next to nothing about Star Wars. I'd vote myself to be Champion, but it's not like it really matters. ##vote Champion Category 5 Hurricane ##vote sith TheIrishman Well, since Irish isn't objecting either. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Category 5 Hurricane Posted January 15, 2018 Report Share Posted January 15, 2018 I actually find it interesting that TheIrishman found that attack had enough merit to it that he felt he needed to explain himself. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rate that more highly than what I'd expect *some* of us came up with, heh. I'll not name names until proven one way or the other, though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Category 5 Hurricane Posted January 15, 2018 Report Share Posted January 15, 2018 It isn't literally Kurisu Makise in Star Wars because Time Machines. The character I made just resembles her. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I probably spent way too much time developing my character. Even going so far as to create several different variants of him according to which stage in his life he was at. After making him, it kind of makes me want to play a D&D game with him but Star Wars edition. 8 minutes ago, Category 5 Hurricane said: I actually find it interesting that TheIrishman found that attack had enough merit to it that he felt he needed to explain himself.

Either way, looking forward to see what you came up with. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killing_You Posted January 15, 2018 Report Share Posted January 15, 2018 I didn't spent a whole lot of time creating my character. I basically picked my stats, decided on an appropriate backstory, send. Perhaps in a future Star Wars game I'll put more into the character, but for now, I'm functional and that's what matters most. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check out Traveller. It's like D&D but with space feudalism and exploration. It's a flexible system that has about anything you can imagine looking for, ranging from hard sci-fi, to psionics, to good old monster of the week adventure. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VERTi60 Posted January 15, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2018 A little explanation to the CVC which is now ready to be displayed in this final form. Those of you who played my games over at BHP will most likely know what's going on, those of you who played the Death Note will find similarities as well. Note that Champions and Siths are tracked separately as the voting mechanic suggests, so you can always see who has the most votes in which category. Note that there is no hammer (mechanic to end the voting phase early if the majority of the votes fall for one player) for neither of the vote column. The last column indicates the challenged player, this player has to respond to the challenger. You can also notice few other things. We will track Health (max is 100, but some beings or constitution can increase health during battle), and Force Points (once again default is 100, but some actions can increase it). When the Council is over, only the Duelants will be tracked for Health and Force Points, everyone else will not see anyone's stats anymore until next Council Meeting. This is because many of the Night actions can change these attributes. Health represents your life force, there's not much else to explain, if you reach 0, you'll die. You can also be eliminated in Duel though, so don't forget about that (more about Duel elimination will be explained, once again, when the tutorial for the Duel starts). Force Points basically limit you how many actions you can perform during either Night/Rest Phase or Duel itself, although in Duel the actions are much cheaper. You can restore the Force Points when you rest and not doing anything during Night/Rest phase. Besides the time and Day tracker at the bottom and player counts, there is one important indicator on top represented by the opposing Lightsabers. This is the Force Balance Indicator (FBI for short, no pun intended), which represents the state of the game. To put it simply, the redder you see, the more of the Dark Side the Force has become. This can be caused by various actions and also by the amount of opposing Jedi with Light Force. This is why you have to find and eliminate Sith before the Balance of the Force is overrun by the Dark Side. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
