This is what your character sheet should look like: Name: Age: Gender: Species: Homeworld: Height: Build: Hair: (color, length, and style) Eyes: Powers: Moral Alignment: (Good, Evil, Neutral) Political Affiliation: Typical clothing: Weapon: (Tendency to use what kind of weapon.) Personality: (how you interact with other people) Skills: --Emotional strength: --Physical strength: --Skill: Weaknesses: --Emotional weakness: --Physical weakness: --Something you can't do very well: History: -------------------------------------------------- This will be a Crossover type rp. Your character can be from any planet, homeworld, anything, and interact with anybody, including people from different 'series' Ex: Qui-Gon Jinn from Starwars could be a character and interact with Sauron, the dark lord. Please wait till I approve your profile before you start rping. In order to keep the rp thread neat and organised, please put a date, and where you are at the top of your posts. Like this: Theed Palace, Naboo, Just before DawnNote that Force Ghosts, Phantoms, or anything to the same effect are allowed, but must have permission from me to use. If you want to just post in the thread saying so

So, canon characters are allowed? Is there any particular location or time you want to start at? (These questions are of course linked because certain canon characters have to be Force ghosts or something in certain eras...)

By extension of Morndakiél's question, non-canon characters are allowed? Or even characters from one's own original fiction?

By extension of surfersquid's question [lol see what I did thar?] can we have original characters in general?

You can have any character, regardless of canoness I suppose.
You can start wherever you like.

Do you know who or what you're playing?, is perhaps my real question, so I know where to go so that we're all relatively together, instead of in different universes. How do the universes connect?
Regardless, I'll have character sheet(s) up in, idk, within the week.

Well primarily you'll be in this giant encompassing universe that includes all the others.
As for the other....I dunno. My own character will be a God/Grim Reaper type character, but other than that, I dunno.
Hopefully i'll think of some sort of plot...

Name: Lyn Lightner Age: 45 Gender: female Species: human Homeworld: the earth of the Sword of Shadows book series; i.e. medieval and arctic Height: 5'2 or so Build: stocky and muscular Hair: long (to the middle of her back), black, and greying Eyes: brown Powers: Lyn is the clan guide for Clan Blackhail, meaning that she keeps communion with the Stone Gods and can sense significant changes happening in the natural world. However, this is the limit of her supernatural powers.
Moral Alignment: Good (although in Clan view this often means keeping good and evil, or the natural order of life and death, balanced) Political Affiliation: Clan Blackhail, its affiliate Clans (basically, this means that she, like much of the clan, distrusts "city folk", and decisions reached by anything more complicated than a vote.) Typical clothing: skirt, boots, top, and cloak made of furs Weapon: hammer (not often used, although she was trained to it in her youth)
Personality: Lyn is quiet, practical, and kind; she will help anyone and offer solid advice. She's got her feet firmly grounded in reality. Her interests are mostly based around the Stone Gods and listening to them, but she'll also make a mean pie.
Skills: cooking, keeping tabs on the natural world and its cycles, giving support and advice or just conversation.
--Emotional strength: complete resilience like the Stone Gods she worships; she won't back down from an argument, although she won't raise her voice about it either.
--Physical strength: from lifting and chipping away at rock, as well as practicing with the war hammer, she's quite muscular in the upper body and chest.
Weaknesses:
--Emotional weakness: Uprooted from her culture, she wouldn't be sure what to do or how to connect to the people around her. Her groundedness which is so important is partly tied to her location, and if put in a completely foreign situation or location she might be frightened enough to hide and not come out.
--Physical weakness: She can't run fast or keep up speed very long; she gets out of breath quickly when running. She's also beginning to feel her age in her bones and joints.
--Something you can't do very well: Deal with abstract situations and fight enemies that aren't right in front of her. Write poetry.
History: All of this takes place before the first Sword of Shadows book; Lyn was made Clan Guide in her twenties and has served in that capacity since, her daily life always involving caring for the heartstone of the clan and telling the gods' decisions to the people.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and use a character whom I created several years ago and has a remote semblance of a storyline, but whom I've never actually done much with besides draw a few times. Figured she'd make a fun RPing character, especially for something like this, though.
Name: Menefr Age: Unknown, young adult Gender: Female Species: Panther (anthropomorphic) Homeworld: Unknown Height: 5'8" Build: Lightweight, wiry, but has a bit of muscle Hair: Jet-black (same color as her fur), thick, falls to the middle of her back Eyes: Yellow-green Powers: None to speak of
Moral Alignment: Good Political Affiliation: None Typical clothing: Simple gi with pants; bare feet; arm bracers Weapon: Bo staff
Personality: Unsociable, moody, cantankerous. Not a people person. Prefers to speak with her fists, claws, and staff instead of with words. Abhors working in a group; highly independent. Easily angered and does not hesitate to smack around anyone who irritates her. Skills: --Emotional strength: Extremely disciplined mentally--has astounding fortitude of will and an extremely strong moral sense. --Physical strength: Physically strong, fast, and agile; good sense of balance. --Skill: Trained in martial arts. Weaknesses: --Emotional weakness: Has an extreme dislike and distrust of males; does not work well in groups; extremely poor communication skills. --Physical weakness: Poor physical stamina--can't take hard hits well, is usually the first to tire in a conflict of sheer strength. --Something you can't do very well: Empathize.
History: Not much is known about Menefr's past, even in the world she comes from. Even her land of origin is unknown. She is a mysterious and solitary figure, dedicated to righting wrongs and correcting injustices.

I told you it was an obscure series (books, yes). Trust me, she'll be a decent character regardless of whether you know the source or not. If you have any questions about the world just ask. (Also, anthro panther in gi = cool)

This'll be fun.
Name: Darth Maul Age: 19 Gender: male Species: Iridonian Zabrak Homeworld: Iridonia (Star Wars universe, of course) Height: 5'7" Build: muscular Hair: none Eyes: orange Powers: Force-sensitivity, specializing in telekinesis and Force Resistance
Moral Alignment: Evil Political Affiliation: Sith Typical clothing: black cloak, black Jedi-type robes, combat boots Weapon: staff lightsaber
Personality: Brusque, quiet, arrogant, and goal-oriented, Maul sees people as a means to an end--all except Darth Sidious.
Skills: --Emotional strength: Courage, discipline, and a passion for what he does. --Physical strength: Maul trained from his youth in Teras Kasi and other martial arts and so is both very tough and resilient and very fast. --Skill: Mastery of various weapons, knowledge of different alien species in case of meeting them in combat, an extensive vocabulary.
Weaknesses: --Emotional weakness: His emotional range is very narrow, encompassing everything from passive vengeance to outright rage, and he has little concept of loyalty to anyone besides Sidious--to whom his devotion borders on the obsessive. --Physical weakness: erm, he's short for a guy? XD I think the issue with him is less of physical weakness and more of how he fights; very close up and without armor can create a disadvantage. He also throws himself into situations with abandon, and can underestimate opponents (i.e. Obi-Wan.) --Something you can't do very well: Get along with people; go without a mission or purpose. He gets antsy easily.
History: Taken from his family at a very young age and raised by Sidious, he has been training and studying, as well as taking the occasionally mission to do Sidious' work, the entire time.

All of the rest look good to me, just curious as to what timeline Maul is in right now...
Before the movies and books, or what..

Him being nineteen means he's somewhere after 'Shadowhunter' and before TPM.

Got it! (Sorry, double posted. :x )
Name: Vega Arcturus Age: 23 Gender: Female Species: Human Homeworld: Helion Prime (Chronicles of Rid:-X series) Height: 5'7" Build: Thin, long legged Hair: Short and shaggy, straight and baby blue. Eyes: Gold Powers: None
Moral Alignment: Good Political Affiliation: Typical clothing: Corset-like tops and belts, colour scheme of black and purple. Weapon: She trained briefly in taekwondo and is able to defend herself if the need arises.
Personality: Friendly and kind when meeting someone, accepting and open to other opinions, beliefs, and values. Skills: --Emotional strength: Easy going, but not so easy as to be a pushover. --Physical strength: Her cute face. --Skill: Trained as a Flight Navigator. Knits real well. Weaknesses: --Emotional weakness: Panics easily, when she does it's hard for her to calm down. If you get her calm, anything can trigger it again until she's had some rest. --Physical weakness: No muscle mass; very thin. --Something you can't do very well: Problem solving.
History: Vega was raised in a middle class family in New Mecca on Helion Prime. She had a typical childhood and at the age of 18, left the city to attend a small flight school out of country to become a Navigator. During this time was when the Necromongers attacked Helion Prime. The small country she was on suffered little to no damage, but her parents who still lived in New Mecca were killed the invasion. Vega was devastated but pressed on in her studies, doing it all for the memory of her parents. (There may be more here later, I'm just to tired to think of anything xD )
