Star Wars Age of Alliances: Hadrix and Cujo

@Warlander Also, the rules on applying for Jedi and Sith characters are about to take a major shift, for those following this mess:

Post Jump: Jedi and Sith Jan 27 2023 CujoAfter the time jump forward this February, the Jedi and Sith will be changing their application rules for Force Sensitive trainees. For several years now, you have been required to have 200 +noms to apply for a FS trainee within the Light and Dark factions of the game, but those rules will change as follows:
- 50 +noms will allow you to apply for an 18+ year ol Jedi / Sith starting out their journey at the base level of training.
- 100 +noms will allow you to apply for a 23+ year old Jedi / Sith who will start out with 4 skills in T1 +FS (Force +sheet) skills set to 75 overall. This will unlock T2 skills, and allow you to choose where you start at from there.
- 150 +noms will allow you to apply for a 28+ year old Jedi / Sith who will have 4 skills given to you at 75s overall in T1 and T2, opening up T3 for you to start out with.
- Age requirements for these levels of characters are to reflect time spent training to achieve those granted skills.
- We still require new Jedi / Sith be new characters / alts for you to get a fresh angle on the role.
- This is designed to let players who want to play a FS character choose the level that they want to start out at. Put the Role Play effort in to your main character to show that you’re an active RPer, who has put in time on the game, and is eager to jump in to the new FS role.
- Choose wisely as to which you wish to apply for, what kind of journey you wish to write for your FS alt… be it fresh from the start, or with a little experience under their belt already.
These rules will go in to effect after the time jump in February on the 24th. If you’re interested, start thinking about possible Jedi / Sith concepts you would enjoy, and when the Jump happens, you can submit your +requests with interest expressed!to apply for!
------------------------------< +bbread 7/148 >-------------------------------Obviously the nom requirements are in place to make it easier for dinos to app the more powerful roles, and thus be able to dominate younger roles. Given how Jedi (and possibly Sith) side RP tends to go on most games, especially for female chars, this makes a nauseating kind of sense.
Apologies if I ruined anyone’s dinner (or post-dinner rest) by posting this.
P.S.: Jedi frown on cybernetics that aren’t medically necessary, including anti-agathics (and Jedi players shouldn’t have the money for them anyway)… but I suspect exceptions will be made for certain people.
And now I’m wondering if Force powers that allow the user to preserve and improve their overall health (and thus retard aging) are going to become available…
(Edited to add P.S.)

Grogu is a playable character???

brb, gonna put in an app
(am I a bad person for giggling at No’koh Kenobi, and how her nickname is exactly the same number of syllables as her real one? Sorry, sorry, anyone who played her).
-
Just when you think it’s over, they pull you back in! Check the fine print on those apps. 'Any disagreement with Cujo, or posting on certain ‘forums’ may get you not-banned without notification.

Also looks like people are choosing to head out rather than deal with the drama/new theme.

@CuriousGamer I honestly couldn’t imagine playing anywhere for seven straight (or gay) years, least of all on the same character.
He/Him. Opinions and views are solely my own unless specifically stated otherwise.
BE AN ADULT -
@Pavel. What weirdo would want to do that?
-
@Jax Meeeeee.
My track record was 11 years with one character on one game.
-
Do we have to be actively playing the character? Because I’ve had an alt in chargen on Shadowrun: Denver for like 13 years, who is never going to get approved because staff are cowards.
… not Mummy related, so the game is safe from getting hit with THE CURSE.
-
I gotta friend on A Harper’s Tale that’s been playing the same character since 2000.
-
@Pavel Interesting view. It never occurred to me people felt that way sometimes. I think I had Ari on Arx for 3 years, and he was taken too soon.
-
@Polk For me, at least, a character should be temporary - get in, tell their story, get out. Though, I’m also of the opinion that a game (and story) should have an end date in mind at its creation.

Grogu being an FC is just hilariously silly to me.
I also like how Qi’ra has been doing stuff for 40 decades. FORTY DECADES. Like goddamn, how long do humans live in the Star Wars universe?

Grogu isn’t only playable, he’s probably FINALLY in his species’ teens, so if the disregard of other policies is any indication, cue inappropriate jail-bait music
-
@Warlander To be fair, I think ONLY Ben was from a Ban. Which is interesting, and makes me wonder what Hadrix has on Cujo, given Ben was allowed to run the Sith, obviously, taking over from Banshee.

Player Run Plots Jan 25 2023 MaelstromHey, all. We’ve got a solid month left before the time skip. We have a lot of exciting things coming down the pipeline both IC and OOC, but today I would like to draw your attention to player run plots. Rather self explanatory, these are plots run by you. They could be for your own personal storylines, cultural groups, or planets of choice.
Staff is willing to bankroll some of these plots to a certain extent; to provide IC reward based on the plot, the number of participants, and logs posted. These payouts can be divided however the GM sees fit.
25,000 - 1 event with 3 or more people in a wiki-posted log
65,000 - 2 events with 3 or more people in each log
100,000 - 3 events in a plot with 3+ people in each logHere are just a few examples of the kinds of plots you can run.
- Bounty hunters from the Guild take down a high-profile, dangerous target.
- A scrapping location on Jakku has collapsed and people are trapped inside.
- An rich collector wants an artifact and is willing to pay handsomely.
- Chandrilan survivors are intercepted by pirates and need rescued.
- A rival smuggling group needs to be dealt with.
You can come up with all kinds of arcs based on who your character is and what groups they are a part of. Pay out is negotiable if you have an idea that you get staff-approval from. We will also be open to players running plots regarding the war between the Rebels and the Sith when we get to that.
Expect the +help file for player run plots to be updated in the coming weeks to reflect this information. If you have any questions or plot ideas, submit a +request.
------------------------------< +bbread 21/224 >------------------------------Exhibit A, way too late. First time in 5 years they offer anything for running. Flashpoint? Ooops? Two events? Whoever runs first gets the money.
Anything else? Fuck you, pay out of your own pocket. They are desperate

Pulling out all the stops to retain/bring in new players. Even though all these types of rewards were suggested a million times by people such as myself and others. Only to be ignored, brushed aside, or hee-hawed at.
Desperate is an appropriate term.

I hadn’t logged in since I left and didn’t know these two had stood up. Good on Jax and Ax and I hope they stay far away from this sesspool and get to have fun without the anxiety AoA causes. I knew about Vega, we are friends, and had been discussing all the issues with the time skip for months before this thread hit. I suppose we kind of left together because she made her final choice when I hit my tipping point and told her I was done with Age of Kora.
Now Sumi, Hadrix, and Maelstrom are the only people who host events on the grid. Jax and to some degree myself were driving forces in the Jedi Order, especially Jax who ran plots for the group and its offshoot.
I’m sure Discordia will continue to have an alt in every sphere so she can pad her stats nom farming, having all the feats ever in existence, but never actually doing any story work herself.
Anyways, just wanted to say good on them.
