KotOR: Gunned Down
During the daring rebublic assault on the Star Forge one ship was crucial in the attempt to make a distraction for the Ebon Hawk. This ship was known as the 'Viridian Raven' due to its distinct green markings. On board were at least three Jedi, guiding the pilots through the battle. After the Star Forge had been destroyed the ship was heading to a nearby planet for fuel, but on route the ship was attacked by a lone mercenary ship carrying multiple Malak followers fleeing the Star Forge. As the ship was only meant to be a distraction, and not meant to fight, it was gunned down easily, crashing into a small unknown planet. Most of the crew died but the few survivors prepare to be sieged as the Sith decend to the planet. Although only the Jedi can feel an eerie presence on this planet, and what dark forces loom there.
Ok so basically we will have some Rebublic survivors and some Jedi, the Sith landing along with the Mercanaries and if anyone wants to the evil forces that occupy the planet that oppose both the Sith and the Rebublic.

---------------------
Viper awoke on the shore. Rising from his unfortunate position he noticed the damage. The ship had split in two on impact, the tail end landing around 300 yards out at sea, and bottom up. Anyone still alive in there would have to swim down to get out. Surveying his surroundings Viper noticed some fellow Rebublicans. It looked as though most of the Jedi had survived. Marc Vern, Qui Toral, Master Vao Vash and Krad Morean. All men. Most women had been strictly prohibited from the Viridian Raven, too many lives would be lost along with the chance for future generations of Rebublicans. There were of course the few who had managed to make it, but these were only the extremely skilled pilots and medical officers. The Raven was to be nothing but a distraction for Revan. It was not meant to be caught up in a fight.
Viper than spotted something he hadn't wanted to see. Sith troops were marching out of the clearing towards them, and more Sith ships were landing on the far side of the horizon. This would be a long day...
Viper stood up and drew his green lightsaber. He would need help.
Viper: Krad! Get over here. We've got company!!!
Viper sliced through the first few troops, force pushing back another lot.
Viper: Krad! Krad Morean! Get over here. Let's go!
Krad got his Green Double Bladed Lightsaber out and saw the troops ahead of Viper. Krad ran towards the Troops and blocked back all the blaster shots that hit his Lightsaber. Soon all the Troops fell to the ground.
"What do we do now?" He asked.
Viper: I'm not sure. This place clouds my vision... we should consult Master Vash, he may know what to d...
Viper suddenly spotted something down the shore and through some trees to his south.
Viper: A temple? Consult Master Vash, I will check it out with some troops. I need four men ready to roll here! (ExtreamJedi12 this could be your chance to come in) We are heading down to that temple to check it out. The rest of the Jedi and troops will remain here to defend the crash site. Is that clear men?
Soldiers: Yes sir!
Vao exited out of the ship and noticed Viper and Krad moving in another direction, towards a temple. He easily Force jumped there.
"Need some company? I sense the temple is full of the darkside, we must be careful."
And with that, Vao headed off towards the temple.
Tidus woke up and stood up. "My head hurts." Tidus thought when he stood up. He heard Viper call for 4 men. Tidus rushed over and volunteered. He seen Vao exit the ship. "Hey," Tidus called out. "Wait for me." He rushed towards him to follow. "Hi," Tidus started. "Mostly kept to myself on the ship, so I don't know everyone. So, who are you?"
Qui Toral stood up. The flight was a blur to him. He must have been knocked out. he heard Viper call for soldiers and Qui got up and ran to the group. "Maybe I should go with you. I am a healer after all. you might have need for me." He stood, impatient, and waited for an answer.
As Marc came back to his senses he looked around. The last he remebered he was running to the cockpit when everything when black. Seeing several Jedi walking toward a structure in the distance Marc sprinted to catch up.
(since there arn't many people my character will die and I will become someone inside the temple)
Viper: Master Vao, I believe we should head inside. I too feel the power of the dark side in here. But if many more of those Sith troops reach us we will suffer a much worse fate. We sh... *SPOTS FOUR SITH JEDI DOWN THE BEACH* go... get inside now, all of you. I will buy our unprepared men some time to make it to the temple. Now just go.
Viper walked slowly towards the four Sith, drawing her lightsaber as he walked. He knew he wasn't going to survive. He turned back to the group one last time.
Viper: Once all the able bodied men are inside seal the doors.
Sith 1: So, the Jedi have found the ancient tomb...
Sith 2: ...just as our lord had perceived...
Sith 3: ...they do not know their fate...
Sith 4: ...this will be the end of the Jedi once and for all...
Viper: SOLDIERS! GO NOW! HEAD DOWN THE SHORE TOWARDS THE TEMPLE! I will deal with the Sith.
The battle began with Viper launching himself down between two of the sith cutting off one of their arms. Another swung at him leaving a gash across his chest. Viper was wounded but not finished yet. He stabbed one through the skull killing him just as the one with the missing arm cut Viper's body in half, leaving his torso on the ground, still alive but only being kept alive by the force.
Viper: Not yet... not like this.
Then he spotted something. A belt of thermal detonators strapped around a dead rebublic soldier. He used the force to pull it towards him. He pressed the detonator on each of the spheres. Then he force threw his lightsaber into the fuel tank of the crashed ship and hurled the thermal detonators over.
Viper: You will burn in the fires of Malachor today Sith hounds! Never under estimate the power of the Jedi.
Then suddenly the fuel tank and entire remains of the ship exploded killing Viper the four sith and all Rebublic Soldiers left on the beach. (ones at or moving to temple excluded)
---NEW MAIN CHARACTER---
Name: 'Scar'
Faction: Unknown Force
Class: Scoundrel (secretly a force user)
Race: Unknown (appears human but is a native of this mysterious planet)
Sex: Male
Age: Appears young, around 18
Weapons: Vibroblade
Equipment: Ancient Robes
Appearance: face looks like this
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/7/77/Squall_Leonhart_shot.jpg)
Scar: *hears the temple doors starting to open and awakens*... gah? Someone is entering the chamber... from the outside...??? What! No! Stop! You must not enter! *draws vibroblade but collapses just inside the door*
Everything inside the temple appears old and worn and cobwebs are in the corners and ceiling. The walls are smeared with dry blood and there are skeletons all over the ground. The blood appears to be theirs but they must have been dead for a long time. Scar's clothes and hands are covered with this same dry blood.
Tidus makes it barely inside the temple before it closes. He looks around it. "I wouldn't live here. Even if it was clean." he chuckled. Then, he seen 'Scar'. Feeling unsure, Tidus draws his longsword. "Who are you?" he called out.
Krad walked inside the Temple. Viper was right. The Dark Side was present here. He would have to be extremley careful. He walked along, looking at the walls of the Temple. They had ancient coffins laid out on the walls. Krad entered a room of the Temple. Suddenly the coffins moved. Out of them, came demons. They were Sith. Once.
"Who are you?" Krad asked, scared for his life.
(BTW everything in the temple looks extremely old, and you had to blast your way through the door which was sealed shut using a welding torch from the outside. Even Scar's clothes look old and tattered, thats why you all find it hard to believe hes in here when you come in here k?)
Scar decided to answer Tidus' question, after all he was in no shape to fight,
"You must leave now... you do not now the power in this place. My brother will kill you all!" Scar feels the cold of Tidus' sword hanging at his neck, "If you must know my name is Scar." Scar suddenly turns when he hears Krad confronting a dark demon.
Scar begins to charge towards it, his vibroblade glowing with an eerie light, as if an angel was dying within it, white but with a sense of darkness. As he decapated the demon another two coffins opened.
"Seal the door now! They must not leave the temple. If they go anywhere they must go to my brother. You people must understand you have started a chain of events that cannot be broken. None of you will leave this temple. This is not a threat but a warning of what is to come. Now seal the doors!"
The demons said nothing. They closed in towards Krad. Krad got out his Lightsaber and attacked the demons. It fell to the ground. He killed some more. The last demon seemed to not give up. It sucked life out of Krad. Krad was sure he would die. But with the last of his power, he destroyed the demon. I feel strange, Krad thought, I must find Tidus, wherever he is.
Tidus went to the door and shut it. Then, he heated up his sword by dragging it along on the ground. Finally, Tidus jumped and slashed the crack in the door, sealing it. "There. Now tell me Scar." started Tidus. "What the hell are you doing here?"
Krad left the room where he had fought the demons. Something isn't right, He thought. He wondered whether they were creatures that the Sith had bred. Or were they once Sith as had thought before? Whatever it was, he had to worn the others. He could hear Tidus's voice beyond a door. Krad tried opening the door. It wouldn't budge. Looks like we'll have to do this the hard way, He thought. He once again got his Lightsaber out and sliced part of the door. Inside he saw Tidus and a man.
"Who's this Tidus?" Krad asked, raising his Lightsaber at the man.
As Marc explored the temple he felt strangely cold and almost afraid. "What the hell is with this place!"Marc asked to no one in particular. He wandered into a large room, as soon as he entered the doors sealed and a strange gas filtered into his lungs. As the poison came so did ancient droids. After fighting them off Marc collaspsed.
((I'm kinda screwed here so if someone can rescue me that'd be cool))
"I am Scar, but my name does not matter. *re-seals the door*. You do not need to know why I am here... yet. *checks data pad in hand* Someone in the atrium... how many more of you are there, no wait no time for that. Round up your men and gather them here in the front hall. I must go to the atrium."
(EVERYONE BUT Maverick5770 IS TO COME TO THE ROOM WHERE ExtreamJedi12 AND Pottsie ARE)
Scar left the two and ran through a few hallways to the door into the atrium.
"Damn, the gas has been released. *hits the door switch and charges in* Get down!"
Scar slashed through the droids. The gas didn't seem to affect him. He defeated the final droid by delivering a roundhouse kick to its head, sending it flying to the top of the stairs at the far end of the room. A man mirroring Scar walked out and crushed the droid head with his foot.
Scar grabbed the jedi on the floor and pulled him to his feet.
"Go now! Head towards the front hall where you came in. The others will be there, tell them they have awakened my twin brother and that all hope is lost. GO! NOW!!!"
(i will control the brother)

Sex: Male
Age: Appears young, around 18

-----------
(sorry to any final fantasy fans, I couldn't help myself.)
Seifer: Squall my brother.
Scar/Squall: Shutup, I no longer use the name given by our parents.
Seifer: Oh how long it has been since I last awakened. Tell me, has the world changed much over the last 1000 years???
Squall: I would not know, I have pride in the fact that I have been able to stop you from leaving for so long.
Seifer: Well, I guess you have failed in doing that now.
Squall: Perhaps... we shall see.
Seifer: Your friends will die, you do know this do you not. Both those already inside the temple and those attempting to enter.
Squall: Attempting to enter? There are more?
Seifer: Yes. Some that follow our ancient ways are attempting to enter from the outside.
Squall: YOUR ancient ways, I saw its flaws years ago just as mother did before you struck her down.
Seifer: And do not forget our sister. Servents, *servents enter* prepare the ship.
Squall: You are leaving?
Seifer: But of course.
Squall: But the hanger door...
Seifer: Yes, Irvine is dead, the seal is broken. It seems he didn't make it to his resting place before the last lockdown began.
At these words Squall charged foward but fell back when Seifer force pushed him. Seifer then walked away, sealing the door behind him.
Squall headed back for the main hallway to see how the others were fairing.
"Nice to see the family tree" Krad said to Tidus, "We must find Marc, I sense that Scar or whatever his name is will try to find him"
"I disagree." Tidus said. "We should wait here in case he comes to us."
Marc stumbled into the room where the other jedi were standing. That guy scar says we need to get outta here now!Marc panted.
Suddenly the main door to the tomb burst open with hundreds of troops waiting. But Scar/Squall appeared out of nowhere and knocked most of them off guard with a force push.
"Go now! There is a ship in the docking bay," said Squall as he threw a datapad map to Krad, " use it to get out of here. Be warned though, my brother will have placed troops along the way. I will meet you there."
Squall then force pushed the Jedi and Rebublic men (ie Krad, Marc, Tidus etc.) back through a door and used the force to close and lock it to ensure that they would listen to his instructions.
Tidus started banging on the door. "Well," Tidus started. "No where to go but forward." With those words, Tidus started walking forward.
Vao turned down a corner and saw the other Jedi and remaining soldiers.
"Hey, this way, the ship's this way!!"
"I guess this better than dying"Marc thought as he followed his Jedi friends down the hall.
Meanwhile in the docking bay another ship was already leaving (don't worry still one left for the good guys). Seifer was preparing to board when he heard the Jedi coming.
"Deal with them my servants."
"Yes master. We will deal with them swiftly."
Suddenly two men appeared from behind Seifer, drew what looked to be lightsabers, and began to move towards the group.
Seifer in the meantime had boarded the ship and had begun to take off. (there is no chance to catch Seifer. Let him go and we chase after him in the other ship later.)
Two people attacked. Krad used his Lightsaber to kill them all.
"We need to find another Ship" He told the other Jedi.
"This way, there is what looks like a Sith Landing craft with a Hyperdrive. Hopefully it has the codes to get through the Sith Fleet!"
Vao began running down the hall. Two Sith corpseswith lightsabers lunge out, and are slayed by Vao. The rest of the Jedi and Republic soldiers reach the hanger.
"C'mon, here it is!!"
"I'll pilot this thing." Tidus said before moving to the cockpit. But, then he remembered Scar. "What about Scar? He knows more about that wacko then we do. I say he comes with us."
"Maybe" Krad said, "But what if he betrays us?"
"Then we'll deal with him, but for now, get him to fly this thing!!"
(btw Squall is Scar if you hadn't already noticed. You all know him as Scar but his real name is Squall)
Squall suddenly burst into the hanger bay, blowing through the south wall. Hundreds of Sith troopers, the Malak followers from the beach, followed him through.
As he ran, dodging lasers as he went, he signalled for Tidus to take-off by waving his hand upwards.
As the ship began to take off Squall just manged to catch the edge of the landing platform as if folded in.
"Floor it! I got a little surprise," and with those words Squall pressed a switch in his hand and the entire Temple exploded as the crew exited it.
"That was close... too close. Listen, we must head for Coruscant. It is incredibly important that we make it there. My brother, Seifer, will atempt to destroy the planet using old Sith weaponry. I will admit to you, I was once a follower of the Sith. As was my Kingdom. But I and many others saw its flaws and decided to overthrow my brother. We failed but were able to lock him inside that temple. Unfortunately with you lot entering the tomb he has woken once again. His menace to the galaxy will not stop until he is destroyed."
The ship raced towards Coruscant in an attempt to beat Seifer. As they approached the planet Squall saw the surface for the first time in many thousands of years.
"A cityscape... so much has changed. Never the less this is good. It will delay Seifer's search for the weapon. Let us land."
"Jedi Temple, this is Jedi Master Vao Vash, we request immeadiate landing now!"
"Roger, cleared for landing, Master Vash." comes the reply.
Tidus lands the ship with great skill. The crew get off and are waiting at a landing platform, waiting for Scar to say more.
"This is too easy," said Squall, looking around the temple.
"...my brother... he is here already. I can feel his presence. I must tell you all that I am a force user. My brother and I have a special bond... we can almost read each others thoughts. I know he is here, but he sends no resistance for us in this temple," suddenly Squall spotted a dead child lying on the ground behind a pillar, his blood still flowing. He was newly dead.
"We must leave now! They are here! We should split up, meet up outside town. I would not be surpised if most of the people of this planet are dead. Krad, get back in the ship with Tidus and take off and head outside the city limits to the south, in the mountains, and clear out any enemies there so we can safely exit. Master Vao Vash you come with me. We will clear out this temple of my brother's forces and then meet up with them later," said Squall, giving the Rebublic men his commands. However he hadn't quite noticed the Sith jump out and swing at his head. He ducked quickly and suddenly, slicing the man in two at his waist.
"Go Tidus, get out of here with Krad now!"
More Sith appeared as the ship took off to head for the mountains.
Vao folowed Vash into the temple. Immeadiately, Vao ignited his saber against two Sith Assassins. Vao's yellow ssaber cuts both of them bown easily. The Sith Assassin's skills cannot top a Jedi Weapon Master like Vao.
Vao regroups behind Squall and continue to follow him in.

Krad jumped in and Tidus closed the door behind him. "I hate days like this." Cloud said. The ship drove off to the mountains. As they got closer, Tidus noticed that it got colder. "Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr." said Tidus as he shivered. Suddenly, the ship rocked. Sith ships were on their tail. "Spawn of a Space Slug. GET TO THE TURRETS!"
"There will be more of them about, keep your wits about you." Squall then turned a corner in the temple to see the floor soaked in the blood and lined with bodies of young jedi and their masters alike.
"This is horible. I know it is not the way of the Jedi, but this is why my brother must die, or else this will be the state of every planet in the galaxy. Now let us hurry, we should find any of the living and move on."
"Then we must find him Squall, and stop him." Vao says.
"We must hurry, let's leave this place."
"Why must he leave if we must stop him?"Marc asked,"Shouldn't we actually stop him?"His lungs still ached from the poison.
"Yeah" Krad said, "But maybe we can stop him a different way"
"What do you mean, a different way?"
(THIS POST WILL BE ALL OOC)
1. Krad I didn't mean to character control (well i didnt really) but I asked you to go with Tidus in the ship to secure the outter area of the city.
2. Therefore you can't talk to us (cept Tidus) until we get there
3. I didn't mean leave the planet, I meant to just leave the Jedi temple.
