Topic: The Mandalorian Wars...

The Mandalorian Wars…
    The true Mandalorian Wars…

Okay, well if you know me (like most of you do) you have no problem understanding why I made this RPG. Quite frankly I’m one of the biggest Mandalorian fans ever… so that should explain everything. Here we go:

War in the Unknown Regions (3,976-3,966 BBY)

The true Mandalorian Wars were raging almost ten years before the Republic ever intervened. This era became known as the War in the Unknown Regions. The Mandalorians conspired with the Sith in an ambitious scheme aimed at conquering their common foe. Knowing his people were not yet ready to challenge the Republic directly, Mandalore began his crusade by leading his rebuilt clans in a brutal campaign along the Outer Rim Territories, on the edge of Republic Space.

During this period the Republic Senate chose not to intervene in the Mandalorians’ campaign for conquest, wary of allowing the Republic to become embroiled in another galaxy spanning conflict after the devastation wrought during the Great Sith War. They refused to take action unless the Mandalorians threatened to invade the Republic itself… meanwhile, Mandalore planned to do just that.

The False War (3,966-3,964 BBY)

The Republic finally did intervene when the Mandalorian threat converged on Taris’s resource worlds of Vanquo, Tarnith, Suurja and Jebble, the Republic Senators chose to make a stand. Taris was granted Republic membership and in the months to follow the Republic deployed its Outer Rim fleets in a lengthy defensive formation which was intended to protect Taris and its dependant worlds from the Mandalorian predators.

By 3,964 BBY the Mandalorians’ crusade had appeared to have ground to a halt; the Mandalorians had failed to conquer a populated system in the Outer Rim for more than a year. Appearances, however, were deceiving. Mandalore the Ultimate and Cassus Fett had engineered this False War as it would later be termed. Withholding the majority of his forces and feigning weakness, Mandalore initiated a deceptive campaign designed to mobilize the Republic while simultaneously lulling it into a false sense of security.

The Revanchist

Amid such uncertain times, radical new factions began to coalesce within the Jedi Order. An outspoken Jedi Knight, who would become known in the popular media as "The Revanchist," warned of the danger posed by the Mandalorian clans. She lobbied for the Jedi Order to take an active role in the Republic's war effort, but the Jedi High Council was hesitant to be drawn into another armed conflict. The struggle with the Sith during the Great Sith War took a very heavy toll on the Jedi Order and it had yet to fully recover. In the face of a looming Mandalorian threat, the Jedi Masters grew cautious lest they repeat the mistakes of the past; they were wary of the dark side and they sensed that an unknown hand was at work behind the new war.

The Jedi Council seemed content to watch and wait as the border war escalated along the Outer Rim, but a growing movement within the Jedi Order refused to stand idly by. The young and charismatic Revanchist began to recruit Jedi followers to combat the Mandalorians, and her friend Alek was the first to join her cause. Well known and admired within the Order, the two Knights were able to quickly enlist a number of like-minded volunteers and form them into a faction that would come to be known as the Revanchists. Anticipating a Mandalorian invasion, they scouted the battlefront without the knowledge or consent of the Jedi Council.

And so we begin…

Re: The Mandalorian Wars...

PLEASE READ

Okay, now we all know what this is about there are so guidelines I’d like to go over:

(1) I would like to keep this as canon-friendly as possible, however, this is a fan-fiction so non-canon is allowed.

(2) If you are going to join this RPG please try to keep up with it and do actually read other people’s posts. We don’t need a rogue poster going around doing random things that have nothing to do with the story line.

(3) Please, please at least try to use correct grammar! We are not texting here: write good, readable sentences. You would not turn a story that you wrote into your teacher that had grammar errors so don’t post the likes here.

(4) Ask somebody before you decide you’re just gonna kill their character off. You must have their permission! You are allowed to inflict minor injury to their character without their consent, however, major injuries (i.e. stabs, gun wounds, chopping off a body part) require the person’s permission.

I think that should do. However, if we have problems more guidelines or rules will be aided.

Re: The Mandalorian Wars...

CHARACTER APP:

You may stray from the given character app but do try to at least get the basics in there (ie. Name, Gender, Age, Alliance).

The characters Alek (later known as Malak) and Cassus Fett have been reserved for Hovoth. You may choose any other characters you wish.

Name:

Gender:

Species:

Age:

Alliance:

Rank (if applicable):

Ship (if applicable):

Fleet (if applicable):

History (optional):


MY CHARACTER(S) APP:

Name: Alora Revan (a.k.a. “The Revanchist”)

Gender: Female

Species: Human

Age: 23

Alliance: The Revanchists; Galatic Republic; Jedi Order

Rank: Jedi Knight

Ship: A stolen Mandalorian stealth freighter, modified and renamed Downfall

History: Not much is known about this mysterious Jedi Knight before she joined the Order. Master Kavar ventured into the child’s mind when he first stumbled upon her, alone and cold. There was not much change in her mind, only emptiness and darkness. But the Force flowed so strongly through the child that he could not resist the call to train her.

Defying the Jedi Council Master Kavar took the girl into the Jedi Order. However, he could not have two Padawans thus he was forced to allow Master Kreia to train the child early on. After his first Padawan, Alek, became a Knight he took Alora as his and within a matter of months completed her training as well.

However, try as he might Master Kavar could never seem to vanquish the darkness that lie within his student…

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Name: Mandalore the Ultimate (alias)

Gender: Male

Species: Unknown (supposedly a Taung though this has yet to be proven)

Age: Unknown

Alliance: Mandalorian Neo-Crusaders; Mandalorian clans; Sith

Rank: Mandalore

Ship: A highly advanced and modified Mandalorian Dral-class Assault Ship known as Kote Te’t (meaning For the Glory in Basic)

Fleet: The entire Mandalorian Armada

History: Mandalore the Ultimate assumed the title of Mandalore at the end of the Great Sith War. It would be he who undertook the arduous task of rebuilding the greatly diminished Mandalorian clans during the Restoration Period that followed the Great Sith War. Upon assuming leadership, Lord Mandalore recalled his scattered warriors, but few remained to heed his summons.

Undeterred, he aggressively expanded his recruiting efforts beyond the original Mandalorian species—known as the Taung—and welcomed members of alien descent into the Mandalorian fold. As a result of his efforts, the Mandalorian ranks swelled with warriors from countless worlds, and Mandalore was able to swiftly form a powerful new generation of warriors known as the Neo-Crusaders.

And using these Neo-Crusaders he would change the fate of the galaxy.

Re: The Mandalorian Wars...

We will begin shortly after the time known as "The Onslaught". This era of the Mandalorian Wars began around 3,963 BBY when the Mandalorians broke out of the Outer Rim and began to press towards the Core. It was completely unexpected and the Republic fell before the ferocity of the Mandaorian attacks.

The time now is the Republic's CounterOffensive when the Revanchists intervene and the tides of the war begin to change.

Re: The Mandalorian Wars...

Okay (1) Rhyykol, you have to give the Jedi Exile a name... he can't simply be the "Jedi Exile". It's the beginning of the Mandalorian Wars anyways. He isn't exiled until after the war is over. Also, the Jedi Exile did not have control of a Republic Fleet. Although we have not reached this point yet Revan was given control of the Republic Fleet, not the Exile. The Exile was merely a General under the leadership of Revan.

(2) To go ahead and fix this: if you're using the App and you don't have anything for, oh, let's say "Ship" just delete it. Don't leave "Ship:" and then a blank behind it or something like "none". And if your character does have a ship don't leave "Ship (if applicable):". Delete whatever is in the parenthesis. (previous posts have already been fixed) I know this sounds like a lot but I'm kinda picky.  tongue No biggies though.

(3) *sigh* Konah... Revan is a female in this RPG. Please fix character APP.

(4) Fan-fiction Jedi Masters are allowed of course, however, I would like to keep the Jedi following Revan as Jedi Knights since she is one as well. You are also allowed to use the canon Jedi Masters such as Vrook, Kavar, etc., etc... just so you know. (dibbs on Kavar... I'll post his APP later) ~_^

(5) I stickied this RPG because usually the ones me and Hovoth are involved in stay active. When they are inactive I unsticky them and ususally close them as well. I will look into making the Swamps of Dagobah and the Sith Uprising RPGs sticky.

(6) Actually Rhyykol, no they don't. The New Beginning RPG does. Why it is at a stand still for the moment it is still relatively active and holds the active record at over 3,000 posts. The other RPG in the topic "How Did You Feel When You Learned the Truth" holds the all time record being only 100 posts away from 5,000 when it went inactive.

This RPG will commence when Hovoth returns (due to the fact that he controls two main characters).

She will proprobly take it

I'm black....wait thats not right

Re: The Mandalorian Wars...

That's fine Konah.  smile

Changed Revan's history up a bit so she would fit into canon a bit more. Apparently Kreia was her first Master so I had to make that kinda fit in. ^_^

CHARACTER APP:

Name: Jakob Kavar

Gender: Male

Species: Human

Age: 42

Alliance: Jedi Order, Galatic Republic

Rank: Jedi Master

History: Little is known about the famed Jedi Master before he joined the Order at the almost the age of 13. Joining at such a late age he was a very hard Padawan for Master Vandar to handle. However, Kavar completeled the Jedi training quicker than any of Vandar's previous Padawans and received the rank of Jedi Knight at the age of 21.

When the Republic first engaged the Mandalorians they called for help from the Jedi Council and Kavar answered; leaving Alora, newly appointed a Jedi Knight, without a mentor. However, at the call of the Jedi Council and the bidding of his former Master, Kavar returned a few years later, leaving the Galatic Republic to wage this war on their own.

When he returned, Kavar found his rush into battle had had an effect on his former students and both Alora and Alek defied the Jedi Council to answer the call of war.

-------------------------------------------------------------

If you remember the Republic didn't engage the Mandalorians until 3,966 BBY... ten years after the real Mandalorian Wars began. Kavar would have joined the Republic's struggle in 3,966, which means Revan would haven been about 20 (to be 23 in 3,963 BBY). Only a year younger than Kavar when he received the title Jedi Knight.

Re: The Mandalorian Wars...

Alright, let me garner up some info. Good thing I have Wookieepedia at my finger tips.  wink
-------------------------

Name: Alek Squinquargesimus

Gender: Male

Species: Human

Alliance: The Revanchists; Galatic Republic; Jedi Order

Rank: Jedi Knight

Ship: A Mid-ship that Alek uses from time to time. It's offense are standard blasters and proton belts. It's defense is a medium fortified shield base.

History: Alek is a Human male born on the planet Quelii in a village named "Squinquargesimus." After Quelii was devastated by the Mandalorians, the name of Alek's home village was used as his surname on immigration records. Eventually, Squinquargesimus was found to be sensitive to the Force and was trained as a Jedi Padawan at the Jedi Enclave on Dantooine. Nicknamed "Squint" by his peers, Squinquargesimus' closest friend was the Padawan who would eventually be known as "Revan." Though Revan was recognized as the stronger of the two, Squinquargesimus' desire to broaden his knowledge did not remain unnoticed and he, like Revan, eventually sought out additional training from the Twi'lek Jedi Master Zhar Lestin on the galactic capital of Coruscant. Some time before 3,963 BBY, both of the young men completed their training and attained the rank of Jedi Knight.

\\\\\\ ////// \\\\\\ //////

Name: Cassus Fett

Gender: Male

Species: Presumed Mandalorian

Alliance: Mandalorian Neo-Crusaders; Mandalorian clans; Sith

Rank: Neo-Crusader Field Marshal

Fleet: (Second-hand Marshal Advisor areas)

History: The origins of Cassus Fett were largely unknown in the galaxy; Republic Intelligence was unaware of where he came from, and even few of his fellow Mandalorians knew, though it was known that he was Human. After the close of the Great Sith War and the defeat of the Mandalorians in it, a new Mandalore rose to power, styled Mandalore the Ultimate. Mandalore, looking to redefine Mandalorian identity, called together a number of talented advisors with abilities beyond battle and war, amongst them Fett. Fett became Mandalore's aide-de-camp and top strategist; he was highly influential, both on the battlefield and off. He helped convert the disorganized rabble of the Mandalorians into an efficient, regimented organization.
