Vengeance Blade

ok so im still gonna use the Republic star destroyer as their main vessel and R2-S7 is the pilot.

the ship is re-named the Vengeance Blade, its fitted with gun ships and everything you would expect it to... minus the whole crew, but im still working on that

R2-S7

so ive given my Dark Jedi an astromech droid, R2-S7. this has taken the issue of their space vessel and made it alot easier to work with, including various situations where a droid would be necessary. colors... lets see, dark jedi... star wars... maybe ill just theme the droid after my car. blue with silver pieces. and of course it'll have lots of tricks and hidden compartments. it will also be the core for their star destroyer. it will command the vessels navigaion and communications. i have an idea or two for other parts of the ship, ill play with the ideas for a moment before i present them.

so ive been trying to follow some blogs (josh, austin, kim, jaycey) and the stupid thing keeps saying that the url was not detected or something. its really pissing me off.

so i went and got that star wars jedi vs sith book, and im quite surprised at how detailed it is.

and i also got the latest EGM, and the magazine from ten years ago had Star wars: rouge squadron. i remember when i wanted that game so badly i wanted to tear my hair out. i spent so many hours just trying to get all the different ships and trying to earn the gold medal for each level.

Objective: destroy all seven shield generators

Bonus objective: destroy all the AT-AT's in the level

Bonus objective: complete the level in less than 2:30

it could get pretty intense, everyone i played it with got pretty paranoid about the whole ranking system. and this is all before the online ranking system where your performance is added to the cache of everyone else who played it.

you are 3,238,769 out of 129,475,698,490,475,695,605,856,967,659,547,856 (at least thats how it feels sometimes)

as far as my sith characters, i might go with the whole dark jedi idea. since i dont want them to betray eachother i figure the dark jedi will be just fine, it might work better that way. now i have to find another name for Turbos. since he wont be a sith anymore ill have to think of a regular name (at least star wars normal)

Annax Tuulex is her whole name. another element to her character is that she fights while blinded, she relys on her attachment to the force to guide her and refide her force abilities. she'll tie her bandana around her eye's just before she starts a mission and meditates on how to go about her mission. another thing about her ive been tinkering with is her hair. i wanted to give her long braided hair that is threaded through her outfit... i dunno, it seemed like in interesting idea, ill work with it more.

as far as the master, ill name him Gearek Subaranek. being only a few years older than Annax he's grown fond of her, more than just a master.

since their not sith anymore ill change some lightsaber colors around, Gearek sill has his four lightsabers, but now only one will be red, the two nightsticks will be a dark blue now, with the fire crystals and ignition coil still intact. and his last one will be purple.

Annax's lightsaber will stay the same, four ended lightsaber with lime green compressed beams.

another thing i want to work on more is their fighting. since they like to cause chaos around their enemy and strike when they dont expect it, i think the seven forms will not be necessary when i describe the fighting, cause if they fight like that, then they probably fight dirty and cheat. search and destroy, that is what they do.

i might do more work on their space vessel, i want it to be big, but the mechanics behind it will have to be refined.

so i started working on a pair of star wars characters, if you havent guessed already... theyre sith. ive had the idea of a sith in the far reaches of my skull for a while now, but with the recent boom of The Force unleashed, ive felt that now was a good time to really work on it. the idea i had was a sith warrior who had a nightstick lightsaber and red goggles, just a loner. but then i realized thats probably nothing like a real sith so i added the apprentice to the equasion.

the other part of this has been the names. its driven me crazy, but i think i came up with stuff that will work just fine. ive decided on Darth Turbro (get it?) in personal total he has four lightsabers, two of which are his nightstick style, the other two ill explain in a story somewhere down the road (Leader i already told you so no spoiling) i will tell you that his left arm is fake and has lots of hidden tricks. and his lightsabers are quite unique as well. his two main sabers have fire crystals and he installed an ignition coil to spark the crystal, his specialty is fire control and hes mastered the art of enemy distraction

the apprentice is named Annax (remember my little rule?) she's a sith ninja with that four ended shuriken lightsaber (with green compressed crystals of course) her specialty is in the force and and force throw. she hurls her saber like an old fashioned shuriken. she can also mask her presence and she is a master of discuise.

as far as equipment, ive thought of them having an old republican star destroyer as their main space vessel, fitted with all the ships of the day, along with modern imperial vehicles too.

ive thought of a good idea for their story. since their sith, they will betray one another, but i didnt want that, so i thought of having them first be Jedi, then some tragic event caused them to become sith, but their still loyal to eachother like true Jedi. they fight alongside eachother when its necessary. their specialty is to cause a catastrophy around their opponent and strike while the irons hot.

ill post more as i come up with it. i really need to get that jedi sith book at barnes and do some research

now that i think about it, this might be a good place to put my story ideas, imperial and otherwise (mostly imperial)

yes i think this will be a great place to put all of my ideas, my head has been crammed with ideas for Day/Off that everything else has been shoved to the side. all the little details about Death Inc. and the horsemen of the apocalypse, and the imperial timeline. as i get the time ill post them here, those who see this can talk to me about the ideas if you have anything to add, and if there is something i cant come up with i might call one of you or some of you to come up with a solution, only time will tell

first time at this... ...

ok so ive been at home all day and ive been really bored. seriously ive been BORED. everyone is at work and im stuck here at home cause i have payments to make. im sure someone is going to see this and be like "i told you it was only a matter of time before you made a blog" any takers for this fine achievement? its worth 15 points to your 'itoldyouso' score.

Hmm... maybe ill post an itoldyouso scoreboard for some of you, just so you know how well (or bad) your doing.

alright this is it for now, i might post more later while i watch vol4 of Samurai7
