okay, some ground rules.
1)NO KILLING. Fighting, yeah, killing, noooo. i want the story to go on w/o dead people.

2)STAY IN CHARACTER! PLEASE! That does help forward the story! and if ou must post out of story, mark it with Bold style font.
like..... this
< b >OUT OF STORY!< / b >
just minus the spaces in the < >.

3)please, please, no references to other stories going on. they only cause chaos and it KILLs the story.

4)As for universe limitations. well....... SW, please. thanks.

and state your characters age, place of origin, background, and the 5 items you have on you. comm links's are a given.

SETTING: Coruscant, the Galactic Civil war is comming to a head. The Rebellion is closing in on the Jewel of the Empire. Since the Emperor's death, mass discention for Imperial rule has swept the planet. however, the constant oppression from the Empire's Elite Guard keeps the people from ignighting full and complete rebellion on planet..... only a few small haven's still exisit away from the Guards watchful eye.............

The "Galactic Swirl" is one of those haven's. down a few level's beneth the "surface" of Coruscant, tucked away in the back of the industrial sector, this haven is known to few, but home to many. Somewhat dimly lit, it has a island bar, and tables lined around the walls. (think the canteena from SW:E4, only cleaner, and more metallic) Manned by a single man, he's hireing for help, with no sucess. the last one had circumstances that forced him to......... "quit".

NEW CHARACTER!
Name: Cracken
OCCUPATION: Bar Tender, former rogue and outlaw. did time at Kessel, released on perole for 2 years, then finally was let out from under imperial scrutiny.
PLACE OF ORIGIN: Coruscant
ITEMS: holopad, Blast-Tec44 blaster, lightsaber (found on an old, aging cargo ship drifting in space), keys to his small star frighter.

<font size=-2>Egad, how did you know that? The name was only ever mentioned once in whole series (as far as I know)...woah. Well, I'm uh, not supposed to be Mara. Just needed a name. http://www.roguesquadron.net/forums/wink.gif(And) it's purely coincidence that we both happen to work for Karrde! Geeze, I just noticed that...and what a remarkable coincidence indeed! Perhaps I could be Mara...well, I'll think about it!)

Nine walks nearer to Termand, getting cuffs out, and suddenly Termand leaps up and over his head, igniting his saber and slicing his blaster in two. As he comes down he kicks Nine in the back of his head with a clawed foot. "Stupid security...always underestimating me." *pauses* "Corellian security? How did they know I was here?"
