Spoiler warning for 15-year-old Star Wars video game, I guess?

[therevanchist]

Hi, it's Carolyn, Mira's player. In the interests of having a character capable of positive interactions with anyone other than baseline humans, I've apped the Old Republic's favorite reformed Sith Lord, Revan. Her app has details/wiki links, but the short version is that in the midst of her very successful war to conquer the Republic, her second-in-command's sudden but inevitable betrayal allowed the Jedi to catch her. They proceeded to erase her memories, give her a new identity, and send her off to fix her myriad fuck-ups without telling her anything, like you do. At her canon point she's learned the truth and isn't what you'd call happy about it, but I'm playing her light side, so she's not repeating her old mistakes, just moving boldly forward with exciting new mistakes.

I have a permissions post for Jedi Bullshit. Since she's a light sider, she's pretty benign with the Force, but like any self-respecting RPG protag might harass people to talk about their feelings.

As far as fourth walling goes, I don't mind characters having seen Star Wars, but I prefer they not know about Revan's era. It's 4,000 years before the movies and only features in a couple games and some comics, so there's almost no overlap, anyway.

Hello everyone!

I'm Zero, a brand new player, coming in with Cloud Strife who is taken from (original!) FFVII.

He's coming in pretty early on in the game. He's taken from the Temple of the Ancients canon point right after handing over the Black Materia, unfortunately having a doozy of a mental episode and beating up everyone's favourite adorable flower girl because oh god, this man has serious problems. He's probably going to be rather confused to be here, but I imagine the brief chat he would have had with the Head would've gone a long way toward clearing up any questions he might have.

He's jumping right into mercenary work as an occupation, performing low-level tasks for the criminal underworld in Dualis.

His logic in this is that he's hoping to keep his head down, serve his agreed year and get back to being called by chasing down Sephiroth, but I would appreciate any and all interruptions to his plans to shut up, put up, and get back home ASAP. So please feel free to tag him and bother him, I'd very much enjoy all interactions! His discomfort at being bothered is directly proportional to my happiness.

I have a permissions post right here, and comments are screened for player privacy.

One last thing: I may be a little slow to respond, since I am GMT, but I hope to not keep anyone waiting that long, since I'm on my computer most of the day. With regard to reaching me, I do have discord (which you can pick up on the channel!) but I prefer plurk because I do forget about messages. A lot. I can be found at @ lodestars there.
