ABOUTThis roleplay is centered around the Clone Wars in Star Wars, which takes place between Episode II and III. It's flow is based entirely on the Star Wars Clone Wars tv series, and is a bit different in sense of what the Jedi do when compared to Episode I, II, IV,V, and so on. Almost every Jedi and padawan is out fighting in the war, leaving only the younglings and their guardians at the Jedi Temple. As you will find you can also rp non-jedi such as Bounty Hunters, or Senators, though it can't be guaranteed that you will see a lot of rp time.RULESForum RulesThe forum rules are expected to be followed, which means no cussing or calling people out and any kinds of inappropriate roleplaying. If you are unfamiliar with the rules please look to the main page of this website.Characters (Canon)Although this roleplay is set in the Clone Wars, our characters will not directly interact with any canon characters. This means no one can be "best buds" with Obi-Wan Kenobi, or have Mace Windu as their master. Characters can be referred to for background information, such as "Jim walked past Master Plo Koon and nodded to the senior Jedi", but nothing out of that.Characters (Original) You can make as many characters as you can handle, and gender ratio doesn't matter. It is asked you keep your character design within the limitations of the Star Wars universe, and this especially applies to Jedi outfits and lightsabers.Grammar and PunctuationIt is required in this roleplay to use proper grammar and punctuation along with post sizes being between 3-5 sentences. One-liners will not be tolerated (unless you have absolutely nothing else to add), and text talk within the roleplay is not allowed. Abbreviations out of character are fine, and so small chatter.RoleplayGod-modding, spot-lighting and making anything and everything about your character is not allowed. While you may have a Jedi Master character, they do not have infinite control over the Force- same goes for the Sith. Put limitations on your characters to make everything fun for the rest of the group; having an almighty powerful opponent makes nothing fun. In fighting please do not make anything gorey, and if your character loses a limb be simple about it and not go into extensive detail (as losing limbs is a common tread in Star Wars). Keep everything PG-13 or below.ActivityIf you plan to join, please tell someone one the main page you plan to! It's hard to notice when forms are posted on the joining page and you don't comment on the main one. Only join if you know you can rp here; its frustrating starting a rp with someone who never returns. If you have to take leave for some reason, feel free to do so- but tell us ahead of time so we know you are coming back. JediIn this roleplay you have the choice of being any rank of the Jedi Council, Sith, etc. For Jedi Padawans please do not add an already listed Knight or Master as your master. Only add them if you have asked the characters roleplayer if its okay. Outside of that just don't add anything for their master or make up a name; and as previously stated you cannot have a canon character as your oc's master. This also goes for Knights; do not add anyone you haven't talked to, or state that your oc was previously a canon character's apprentice. If you want to be a Grand Master or Master Jedi, please ask me first before doing so. All Jedi Knights must be over 20 years of age.HISTORYThe Clone Wars began at the Battle of Geonosis where the first armies of the Republic and Separatists clashed. The Separatists divided from the Republic, seeking their own [system of government]. Jedi became Generals in the army for the republic, sending forth all Jedi in an attempt to stop the droid armies from taking over neutral systems and establishing a new separatist order. It was unknowingly instigated by the Sith in a plot for revenge against the Jedi, but this is not known until after the Clone Wars.

They travel throughout the galaxy as destined by their job and take on Padawans as their apprentice to train to Knighthood.Guardian- Knights that choose the path of Guardian set themselves out to defend the galaxy and those within it. There was factions within it, such as Jedi Peacekeepers/Temple Security1, Jedi Starfighters2, and others.
1: Do just as they sound; keep the peace. Spend most of their time in or around the temple. 2: Aces that battle the Sith in the sky.Consular- Jedi Consular's are those that uphold the Jedi code. They choose words and wit over physical battle to solve thier problems. Part of the Jedi Consular Masters serve on the Reconciliation Council, offering negotiations between factions within the Republic and outside it. They work under the Senate.

The apprenticeship lasts roughly a decade or until their master decides they are ready for the Trials.Jedi OutfitThe outfit of a Jedi is their most notable part. Typically tan and light brown in the color spectrum, the Jedi outfit consists of a tunic, boots, utility belt and outer robe for colder weather. The sleeves are typically long with small variations in style and shade. Jedi Padawans have a braid descending from behind the right or left ear, and any Padawan that does not grow hair may wear string or beads in replacement of it.Bounty Hunter/OtherBounty Hunters include a wide spectrum of people. They have no pre-designed uniform and mostly work for themselves. There are other citizens in this world, involving people not involved in the war or simply caught in between.SithSimilar to the Jedi, the Sith have a hierarchy. It is said there are only two, but there have been sightings of more Sith scattered throughout the galaxy. Their outfits tend to follow the uniform of a tunic, boots and robe. However they wear dark brown to black in shades, if their lightsaber does not already set them apart. Any apprentice to the dark side does not have a braid.

I know I said you could make a Jedi Master, but I think you'll have to make him older, since a Jedi Master has to have trained a padawan to Knighthood, and a padawan's typical training is ~10 years.
Other than that he looks good.

Would you like to rp a mission/battle, or possibly just something going on at the Jedi Temple? Since both of our ocs aren't padawans and stuck outside Coruscant.

Missions work; do you want to have a clear objective or play it by ear? They could be going to check out a planet to see if it will join the republic, or checking out rumors of sith prescence, which would give Taïr a purpose, since he's a shadow

Sorry for the delay in response, I was reviewing the planets to see if there was any that peaked my interest as a "lets go there" kind of thing. None of them were exactly enticing at the moment.

Taïr was standing outside the main port on Coruscant, waiting for Kip Sadani to appear before they headed out on their mission. Taïr wasn't exactly glad that he was heading out during the middle of the day- finding that his work was best done under the cover of darkness- but not everyone wanted to stay up all hours of the night flying about between planets. As he waited, Taïr checked his lightsabers to make sure they were firmly attached to his belt; the straps had started to come lose after a run in with a nasty creature while investigating a new planet. He had intended to fix the straps when he got back, but was distracted by war meetings and catching up on sleep.
He decided that the strap would suffice for the current missions, but made a mental note to fix the strap right away when he got back.

Kip had just gotten out of a meeting with the council. They had briefed him about the job, and he was looking forward to working with Taiir. Kip walked up to his current partner and gave him his charismatic smile. "Hi, I'm Kip. Ready to go?" he asked happily. "Lets get to it."

Taïr turned to look over at who was talking. It was his partner for the trip, Jedi Master Kip Sadani, and Taïr couldn't help but feel a bit intimidated by the height difference between them. He had to crane his neck to look Kip in the face. "Ready when you are." Taïr answered with a nod of his head and a short smile, turning and heading toward the ship they were taking.
"Did the Council tell you who exactly we were looking for?" He asked, only knowing that there was the possibility of a Sith being on the planet, but not given exact details. Taïr figured that since Kip was a Jedi Master the Council might have given him more information. If Taïr knew who they were going after, it would make the process of it all much smoother. There was a difference in Sith just as there was in Jedi.

Would you be ok with them going after someone like Ventress?)
"I'll tell you once we are there." The Jedi master said plainly. He knew that they had quite the challenge ahead of them, and he wanted his comerade to have some peace of mind on the way. Kip let out a loud sigh as he boarded their shop and sat down.

Yeah that's fine]
Taïr nodded, not trying to press Kip for more information about their target. He looked behind them as they boarded and shut the doors, checking to see if there were any unwanted visitors around. As a Shadow, Taïr had spent most of his training learning to double back and checking his surroundings to make sure those who weren't supposed to hear something weren't around.He stood off to the side with Kip, looking at the clone troopers who were in command of the ship currently and were busy getting the ship ready to leave the port.
"Were you a Guardian?" Taïr asked after a period of time passed, the ship now heading out of Republic space. The Knight pointed to Kip's set of lightsabers, coming to the conclusion that he was definitely not a Consular, and at most very unlikely a Sentinel. However, there was always rooms in the Force for change and not one thing fit into a single role.

"My master was a sentinel, but when I became a knight I did switch to training as a guardian" Kip replied happily, "so I am a guardian." He looked down at his feet. "We are going after Asajj Ventress." he said rather somberly. "And she has killed many of my friends, so I worry for our safety, but I have a feeling we will be ok."

Taïr nodded, folding his arms over his chest as he leaned back against the inside wall of the ship. He had encountered Ventress before, but that was only when he was a padawan and she not nearly as much of a threat as she was now. "Im sure you and I will be able to take her." Taïr commented. It was four lightsabers to two, and a knight and master against one Sith apprentice. Taïr felt the odds were in their favor, but then again it wasn't like the Sith to fight fair.
