Player and character introductions.

Alright, everybody, I wanted everyone to have a chance to post as both a Jedi Knight/Master and as their Padawan but I want a roll call of those who are still interested. I've held off as long as I think I can so if you're still in, let me know and we'll push forward and pick up new players to fill in the gaps.

I'm still in.

I'm still here! :D
I just have nothing to post as a Padawan, and Charlie is just watching other Masters/Knights for now. XD

Okay, I've spoken with a few other players and they're still in. I'll give the ones who haven't responded here or messaged me another week but I'm impatient and I'm just going to move forward.

That's all optional, none of it was required. You can just jump in when you're ready.

Hi All. I'm Ben and I have just been recruited. I have never played Feng Shui, but I am intimately familiar with the KOTOR setting.

My Master character is Merrick Durn. A 40 year old human Jedi Sentinel until recently assigned to Hutt Space in a deep cover assignment that lasted many years. He has recently been recalled to Coruscant and raised to the rank of Jedi Master. Merrick assumed he would be assigned as a Sector Watchman, but instead he was assigned to the efforts of planting a new Jedi Temple. In addition, he was told to take on a padawan learner.
Merrick was not pleased at the mandates given to him. He had always worked alone and preferred it that way. His own master, the wee'quay Sahren Fel, used silence and solitude to cool Merrick's temper in his youth and focus it in harmony with the Force. Merrick does not feel he is up to the task of teaching a student, much less helping to found a new Temple.

My Padawan character is Errad Onan. Errad is 16 and also human. He was raised from infancy by the Jedi Order. Errad excelled in every discipline presented to him during his time as a youngling. He prefers intellectual and mystical pursuits to fighting, by he is no slouch with the lightsaber.
His excellence has made him arrogant. Many knights and masters sought to take Errad on as their padawan, but the Jedi Council sought the Will of the Force and decided a different path for Errad. He would be assigned to the group founding a new Jedi Temple. There, according to the Masters' visions, Errad would find the Master who could bring out the best in him.

That is what I have. Once I figure it out, I will have sheets for both posted. I am looking forward to joining the story. :)

Okay, so Steef/Zambar and Merrick/Errad, you both currently don't have another player assigned for your character's master/student pairing. If you want to pair up your student/teacher with each other, that's fine, or you can play your own opposites if we want to keep things simple. I'm fine with either choice.

I am good with swapping if Steef is.

Am ok in swapping with merrick too

Okay, so good news, we got another player. Welcome Vorn! But I do want another check-in to see if we have a pairing available or if Vorn will just have Seijin and Eliza paired up as teacher/student. Who isn't paired current with a teacher or a student?

My partners still haven't showed up, neither of them. Just saying. XD
Also, hi Vorn! :D Familiar face!

Okay, that might work out. Vorn, how do you feel about having your characters matched up with FS's?

(FS, I like it. XD)
And for reference: my Master character, my Padawan character. :D

Hey all, just recieved an invite, thank you Cep! Glad to be here - I've got some reading to do here on this forum, and I'll be rolling up 2 characters tomorrow on my day off. I already have a model for master and student, but I'd like to get an idea of what might be needed for this group comp.
I'm brand new to the FS system but I'm a quick study. I'm familiar with kotor IP through the video games related to the era. Looking forward to Jedi Academy!

Edit: I'm open to have my toons paired up with other players, or I can rp both, either way.

You don't have to worry so much about 'filling a gap'. Since all the characters are Jedi there is going to be some overlap to be expected. And as emergencies happen and missions are given by the Order different characters will be assigned different places. While there is a certain truth that a healer character will be better at dealing with some kind of accident that has injured or a tech character would have an easier time repairing something most characters in Feng Shui have at least a passing familiarity with one or more fields. 'Just warriors' and 'just healers' and 'just diplomacy/persuasion' characters don't really exist unless you specifically try to make one.

In short, just play your concept and focus on creating a character you enjoy.

Hello. Glad to be here. I'm still catching up on the forums. With so many people making two characters each, it's a lot to keep track of. I've played KOTOR 1, 2, that weird mmorpg game, and for extra special bonus points, I read the knights of the old republic comic that those games are all based on. It's on my shelf right now. Here are my character concepts.

Jedi knight Tavo Drenko-Miralukan jedi who fought in the sith war against Exar Kun. She got her arm chopped off and now wanders across the galaxy looking for peaceful solutions to violent problems.

Jedi Padawan Mrlaxthar-Cathar war orphan. He doesn't remember his parents, but he still has nightmares/force visions about them and the events surrounding their death. Sometimes visions of the future are mixed into his dreams.

Awesome, let me know if you want help with character creation!

Welcome newcomers! :D
(...may I pair up with any of you? XD I seem to have no luck with finding a partner.)

Okay. I haven't made my character yet, and part of the reason for that is that I've been trying to figure out who is who. To that end, I've made this spreadsheet. Let me know if everyone can see it/edit it. It's a list of people who have joined and what characters they made. It is editable by anyone who wants to update it. I made a column for master and padawan description. If people could fill those two columns out with a couple of words (please don't write a paragraph in the spreadsheet) describing their characters that would be good. Is this something we will use? If so is their other information we should add?

@flyingsucculent- I'll pair up with you.

Oh, before I forget there is a dossier section. Though it needs to be edited for players who have dropped. I'll link to it.
