I thought i would try somthing differant in the RP.

The basic premise is that every one who plays is on the same team and are apart of the crew on a mercenaries ship. each person takes a position (pilot, gunner, etc)

The game will be based in the gap between the two games if Revan was an LS female.

Your character can be any species, class and alligance.

The Ship is a medium freighter with four quad turrets and two forward weapons.


The ship has two levels that are connected be 3 ladders one near the bridge, 1 at enginneering and one outside the infirmary. The entire bottom level is a cargo bay/garage, with several smuggling holes, and a 4 man speeder and 1 swoop bike both unarmed.

The top level
The bridge is small similar to the millenium falcons but with only 2 seats (captains and pilots) located at the front, then their is a small cooridor where the ladder to the lower level is located and entrance to the forward turrets. The corridore then leads to a gally/breifing room witch has another corridore at the other end. The gally breifing room has a medium table where all the crew can sit and eat. in the center of the table is a holo-display for breifings. (also small cooking facility to the port side). The end coridore has 5 doors on its port side with 4 bunks and the infirmery door closest to the gally and four on the starbord side for the gunners quarters. at the end of the corridore is enginneering. The Enginneering is a small room at the back. with a ladder to the garage section of the cargo bay and the entrance to the rear turrets.

We'll call it The Phoenix unless anyone has any objections or better names.

I'll add more details so we all know where we are and what we do their

Jacen Walked into the gally and sat on his seat around the main table. we looked at the time and date on his watch. "Thirteen days." he mumbled to himself. The Phoenix was in hyperspace heading towards Corellia, The crew were going there looking for a job. Somthing which they haddent had in nearly two week. Jacen knew the crew were getting restless they all worked on getting a percentage of the jobs pay and supplies were getting short. The last job they had was smuggling Kolto out of Mannan and taking it to the outter rim. This job didn't pay much as jacen was only doing it as the medical supplies were despiratly needed out there.

Jacen looked around the gally and saw no one around, He began to wonder where the crew were, the ship was quite small so they couldn't be far.

Niomi laied on the bed in the medical qauters. She wasnt injured or anything. It was just that the medical bed was alot more comfortable than the others on the ship. In her hand was ball which she chucked in the air and caught it, she chucked it again and caught it again, she repeated that for atleast an hour. She stopped when she saw the captain walk past "Hey." She called out to him, hoping he would come in and talk to her.

Jacen decided he would go and see what his crew were upto, He got up and desided to check enginneering and see if scuzzy was there. We got up and walked out of the gally towards the rear of the ship.

"Hey!" Jacen heard as he stepped past the infirmary, he walked back and looked in to the room.

"Hey Niomi, I see your keeping busy."

Scuzzy finished welding the last panel in place. He lifted the welding helmet up and checked the time 12 BLOODY HOURS!?! Where in the galaxy does all the d*** time go?? he thought to himself. He then took off his gloves and started to put his tools away until a panel blew behind him with a shower of sparks that danced off the floor. At the same time, Scuzzy felt the Phoenix decelerate which easily identified what just happened: the hyperdrive blew a converter again.

"I JUST FIXED THAT BLOODY THING!! I told that son of a gun that we needed parts back at Manaan, but does he listen to me?? Of course not. So now I've got to fix this d*** thing all over again!!" Scuzzy yelled out as he quickly grabbed his tools in frustration and walked over the the hyperdrive while. Scuzzy quickly and expertly pried off the top panel to the hyperdrive and began to remove parts while systematically looking for the culprit. There is was: a thermal power converter. Figures: the bloody thing overheated on me just like I thought it would, he thought to himself.

Scuzzy tossed the converter behind him and sat back to figure out what he was going to do since he didn't have a spare.

((btw the ship has an internal intercom))

"When we set down i'll see what we can afford." Jacen walks over to the ships internal intercon panel in the infirmary and hits the enginneering button. "hey scuzz what are you doing down there? we're slowing down."

"hey scuzz what are you doing down there? we're slowing down."

Scuzzy quickly reached over and pressed the intercom button. "It ain't bloody me you've got to worry about just yet. Instead, its the d*** parts for the hyperdrive that you've been neglecting to get," Scuzzy retorted in frustration. "Give me a minute and I'll see what I can do."

Scuzzy cursed to himself as he headed back for the hyperdrive. Reaching in, he decided to just connect the wires that had originally been connected to the converter. After all, the hyperdrive was still hot, so it wouldn't need the extra power from the converter to get them back into hyperspace. After performing a quick weld to connect the wires and reconnecting the parts, Scuzzy reactivated the hyperdrive.

"Alright folks, we can get out of here as long as the hyperdrive is still a bit hot, but don't count on us going too fast. And once we get to Correllia, we had best get parts or this thing's gonna get nowhere fast. Now, lets make the jump before the motor cools down so much that it won't start up," Scuzzy yelled back over the intercom.

"Don't worry, parts and jobs are easy to find on Corellia. We should proberly get a decent pilot aswell we don't want to run into the same problems as we did when we were attacked last week." Jacen then stepped back into the corridor and began walking towards the bridge, once there he checked the navigation computer and pushed the Hyperspace levar. The ship then jumped again.

Graothar looked at the ship parts for sale. "Hmmm....." he mumbled. "I'll take that thermal power converter." he said to the Toydarian Merchant. "5000 credits." the Toydarian said to him."2500." responded to the price."4750." the Toydarian. 3000. 4500. They kept arguing prices for a few minutes. Finally, they came to an agreement of 3500 credits. He got some more parts and headed for the spaceport/cantina.

"Yea, im not the best pilot, im better as a gunner, i can barely activate the ship for crying out loud, but, here i go"

He puts the ship into hyperdrive and they start to move even faster than they had before,

"I cant slow it down, scuzzy what the f*** did you do to it?"

They could see Corellia and ships going in and out

"People, prepare for impact, scuzzy get up here before we crash!"

Jacen Quickly grabbed the piloting controls infront of his seat, He began to hit the Hyperdrive controls with his fist. The ship then shuddered and began to slow down as jacen gained control and began to move the ship towards corellia's orbit. He flew the ship into a high orbit and switched on the autopilot.

"you're right John you can 'bearly activate it' We should be safe for now." Jacen stood up and walked to the bridges intercom panel.

"All crew meet in the gally." Turns to John, "come on i need to talk to you all before we land."

Jacen then walks towards the gally and moves to the table activating the Holo- image of corellia in the middle. Now he waits for his crew.

Position- Gunner3/assassin (she's taken the gunner job while it benefits her)
Name- Emma Hoff
Species/Droid- Human
Sex- Female
Age- 27
Height- 5' 6"
Alliginment- neutral
Type- scoundrel
Weapons- dual rapid-fire blaster pistols, a blaster rifle, and a sniper rifle (both rifles strapped to her back when she leaves the ship. The pistols never leave her belt)
Equipment- a bag she keeps hidden somewhere in her room
Apperance- short, dark red hair, green eyes, a scar runs diagonally across her right cheek, adding a sense of ferocity to her beauty
Bio- Abandoned at ten years old, Emma Hoff was determined to prove she didn't need anyone to survive. Eighteen years later, she's proven that very thing, becoming a top notch assassin under the name Hawk. As Hawk, she adopts a different look, black hair just past her shoulderblades and pale blue eyes. Hawk also wears black armor that completes the deception. At seeing the Hawk appearance, nobody would assume that slim Emma Hoff is the same apparent cold-blooded killer.

----------------------


"Haven't beaten mine yet, though, now have you, Kin?" Emma laughed, entering the galley with a sparkling white smile and her green eyes sparkling twice that much. Her short red hair was pulled back from her face, but as she sat, it fell, covering her ears.

Scuzzy headed up for the galley. When he caught sight of Jacen, Scuzzy had to hold himself back a bit. "Next time, watch it a bit more closely when ya decide to hit the bloody switch. A more gentle approach should do it on that ancient piece of crap you call a hyperdrive," Scuzzy stated with a scowl on his face. With that, he turned away while pulling out his bottle of Rubar Scotch.
