    DAY 1 - Named must your fear be before banish it you can

    The council found themselves again in the chambers. They all held a look of wear and worry from the previous day's events. The Order was in disarray. They had barely mounted a war effort in time to combat the Sith. No one was heading the Council's advice for fear they too were corrupted by Sith influence. Small groups had formed and finally made some effort, but everyone in the room knew that if the Jedi did not return fully to the light side of the force, they could very well lose the galaxy.

    Master Ret'brah broke the silence, "I have news from our Knights in the field. Nal Hutta has taken massive losses. The other planets in the message were either attacked with scout fleets or not touched at all. We have much work to do."

    "If only we could do that work knowing the Sith can not see us", Master Oobedoob Benubi replied with a sad tone.

    "Our first task is to re-introduce the Order to harmony. They have turned on themselves. I regret putting Knight ☺☻♥♣♪♫Ω∞♠♦◘○ in stasis. He has served so well for so long, but the rest of the Order is convinced he is corrupted." Master Arron Caballa added.

    "He will be removed from stasis along with Padawan Olem Lahs when we are sure we have fully contained the Sith threat. It is hard on all of us that it has come to this." Master Marasha Xiloscient said, trying to comfort his fellow Master.

    Master Long Yu bowed his head and added "The Force will guide us. We have made it through worse. The Order will not fall."

    Master gℓιт¢н interrupted, "I am sorry to prevent further discussion along the lines of regret and sympathy but I have finished piecing together the holorecording that had been scrambled in the archives. This footage is from earlier today."

    And with that the Masters leaned forward in their chairs and focused intently on the blue, ghost-like image that was being projected from the holovid in the middle of the room.

    ______________________________

    Knight Finnigan Rysoh packed his things into the suitcase in the middle of his quarters. He finished packing his travel pack and walked towards the larger pack that would be necessary for the rest of his gear.

    Then the second figure entered, Padawan Perio Veris, Rysoh's apprentice. "I am afraid I can not go on this mission with you ... master." The last word hung and then snapped with derision as he made his way to the window on the other side of the room.

    Rysoh's face wrinkled with concern and he walked over to his padawan, "What troubles you, young one?"

    "You do."

    "Whatever I have done, Padawan Ver-"

    Veris cut him off, "Do not call me that once more, I am Darth Huggles, Apprentice to the Dark Lord of the Sith and heir to true power."

    They both pulled out their lightsabers simultaneously, but Rysoh was quicker and immediately maneuvered to pin his new foe against the window. Darth Huggles swept low and high, showing new attacks that the Council had never seen, not even among the Sith. But Rysoh held his ground and kept the Apprentice pinned. Huggle's strikes stopped and Rysoh prevented himself from connecting the killing blow.

    "Padawan, we can help you. Please do not do this."

    "Do what? Tire you out for my real Master?"

    And in a blur with one quick motion, a figure appeared behind Rysoh, a red lightsaber ignited, it found itself embedded directly through the back and jutting out through the stomach of the Jedi Knight before he could even turn around.

    Darth Huggles walked up close to his former Master and whispered, "No, Rysoh. It is I who will help you. You are weak and it is your time to go. You would not wish to see the power we will unleash, anyways" And without emotion, he cleanly removed the head of his former Jedi master with a lightning fast strike from his lightsaber.


    "Dispose of the body"

    "Yes Master Hekatombe"

    The hooded figure left the room and Darth Huggles began to clean up the mess that had been created, trying to erase all evidence of himself and his Master.
    ______________________________

    Suddenly the recording started to fast-forward.

    Master Ilin Draconis spoke during the interruption, "What else is there to see?"

    "Patience" Master Thraellvi'g Gennsan spoke, "Glitch would have stopped it if there was nothing more."

    The recording returned to normal speed.
    ______________________________

    Darth Huggles was nearly done straightening up the room when another hooded figure entered the room.

    "My master asked me to straighten up before we leave", the Darth said, acting as Padawan Veris again.

    "Here, let me help you", the hooded figure replied.

    The hooded walked forward toward the bed, seemingly about to fix the sheets, when in once quick motion he drew his blue lightsaber and made a quick strike at the Apprentice. Darth Huggles parried it easily, so easily that his balance was on the wrong foot when the hooded figure spun and found the killing blow across the Apprentice's neck.

    "The Sword of the Jedi always strikes true."
    ______________________________

    The recording ended.

    Master Dark Helmet, "This is both troubling and calming at the same time"

    Master Tvet Slyndar, "We must find this Sword of the Jedi. But first we need to reorganize the order. There have been losses and padawans either need masters or the freedom to be a Knight."

    drunk-ish, and too lazy to read.

    three colors?
    green village?
    blue?
    purple =sith mafia?

  • RetabaRetaba A Cultist Registered User regular
    Blue is the council, green is village. Purple is the Sith mafia.

    Also, if anyone wants me to add them to the PM line in question from the sandman phalla, I think it might get a few laughs.

    Well, since it's 2 min past the hour, Obi is officially the worst host ever, so yeah, I've got some time to kill.

    I was super surprised when I did my mini at how long narration took me. I even tried to do it a few hours early sometimes, but I'd have to rewrite the damn thing because of one or two last minute decisions by someone or other. Chain reactons. Etc.

    Then I had to quadruple check everything so I wasn't killing the wrong person, etc., and ruining the game.

    And so on. And so on. It looks like Obi has a ton of shit to keep track of on his end, too.

    *psst* it was a joke. I've run three mini's and none of them were this ambitious. This one looks even more complicated, and combined with the fact that he's running two games of Wizwar, I am convinced that Obi is in face some kind of crazy, game running computer rather than a person.

    Darth Huggles is an incredible name.

    Yeah, I'm not sure what the blue/green coloring indicates. There are padawans, knights and masters all with green, and masters and knights with blue.

    That was a color hangover from the Shalmelo reveal in the narration. Colored your name in haste when I meant to color the reveal higher.

    I know. I was just adding to the convo with an anecdote.

    This is the first result narration I have ever done. Sorry it took so long, I will get faster. I also fixed some initial mistakes caused by changing the color on a fluff piece when I meant to change it on an actual narration piece.

    Blue means unrevealed. That's all I am giving you.

  • MrTLiciousMrTLicious Registered User regular
    I think blue are unrevealed names (as in we don't know if their owner is good or bad). Green is revealed Jedi, purple is revealed Sith.

    More importantly, there should have been at least 7 points on Bothawui last night. Why do we only have 1?

  • KetBraKetBra Dressed Ridiculously Registered User regular
    Okay sleep time. Will think more on this tomorrow.

    Someone lying about what they did/Sith interference.

    Maybe the sith countered the other 6?

    Seriously, I was kidding. You're doing a great job. I'd probably be curled up in a ball somewhere with my friends whispering, "What is that Phalla thing he keeps muttering about."

    I'm gonna go with The Anonymous for failing to make any contact or propose any ideas after my initial proposal to our assigned squad. Even to say "this is garbage and we should just fend for ourselves." Also didn't contribute anything in thread.

    With a phalla this mechanics heavy, there's really no excuse for not contributing to the discussion.

    I noticed that that was updated to 4. While it's still suspicious, It may not be quite AS suspicious.

    This is just how T_A plays. He's not all that active until much later in the game. Maybe he doesn't want to get his heart set on living for the first few days.

    While the planet influence situation is not so good, at least we're off to a good start in terms of the eliminated players record. We should be able to make up some ground on the former front if we can organize our actions carefully.
