SWTOR-RP Wiki!

Aye, it is a nice page indeed!
Just a thought, assuming that more people may join 'Blasters For Hire' and some may even leave (/sob) I have to say I am looking forward to adding all of you (or rather, your characters!) to my "known allies" part of my Wiki Page

Right. I've think got most of my background sorted for this character. He's here. I'll fill in what he's now up to soon.

There's surprisingly little detail concerning the Republic Army and most stuff that says it's TOR info I found actually relates more to the Rise of the Empire period which happened later.

I've done everything I can to keep the timeline correct but if someone could give my wiki a once over for glaring inaccuracies that would be really helpful!

Cheers!

Thats all really cool. I like his name and his background is ace! Good to have a Sullustan with us as well! The only thing that was slightly out of place was that going by Wookieepedia it seems Baron's Head only existed from the 'Rise of the Empire' era onward. Apart from that it's all top-notch. Good job mate.

Yeah, I hummed and haaard over Barons Hed but I though that because Sullustans were out and about doing their thing by 5500BBY they would have Sulon settled by then and it was the only spaceport mentioned. I reasoned that the biggest could likely be the oldest but I know that's a stretch!

I'd better ambigufy the spaceport part.

Thanks Boss!

I made a page for my character, if people could check it out and give me some feed back, that'd be great!

http://www.evil-wizards.org/swtor-wiki/index.php/Artekus_Vekk

Im having trouble with the next part in the backstory, Im trying to go with him joining the military but im having trouble to come up with a believable reason for him being discharged/going awol. I thought about him maybe killing his commanding officer and having to flee or something.

This is such a pain in the arse because I have some great ideas for the next stage!

Nice page Artekus, a good start!

You've got him down as 'netural', but seeing as SW is a little hazzy around moral issues that dont fit in "light side/dark side", what about being in the army and ordered to do something against his principles? such as wipe out an entire village of innocents because a dangerous villain who had to be stopped at any costs was hiding there? or something similar?
In other words, something that made him question his decision to sign up in the first place, or the questionable morals of his superiors?

Maybe he had a conscience and his bosses didnt like it?

Yay! Nice one mate. I'll add you to the new recruits list on our guild RP-wiki page too.

Well what I would do if I were you is fill out the 'next stage' that you speak of first whilst it's still fresh in your mind. It'll give you more time to think on a possible back story.

Well I was trying to develop him into someone who is cynical and coldhearted after enduring a tragic early life. With the murder of his parents only being the beginning. I had him join the army as the reason for him developing good combat skills which would be why he decided to become a bounty hunter. The only other story arc i could think of is that Soren Vash's men had orders to bring him back alive so he could be smuggled off-world and sold as a slave. This would then result in him ending up on Nar Shadaa and owned by a Hutt.

Good idea, I could just leave that blank for now.

Good advice, Boss. I always start with a short hand brain-dump of everything I have in mind (delete the rubbish on re-read), expand what I've got and sew it together (then delete the more pompous rubbish), fill in the gaps (delete out all unnecessary tangents), triple check for timeline faux pas and post! Then usually ending up performing follow up surgery in an edit to (try to) ensure a nice lean character bio by deleting extraneous words.

Is how I do the writing of what I do and how I'm left with what it is that I've got.

Hahaha! That sounds strenuous mate! Still it seems to work for you cause I love your wiki pages so far.

Your profile sounds a bit like mine, Artekus! We both joined the republic army and are now bounty hunters serviving Blasters for Hire! Nice job there.

Really? damn, there's me thinking I was being slightly original too!

Whats the name of your character?

Nah! It's no problem! Actually, maybe it's good that both of our characters are from the Republic army, as they can relate to each other. We can just have different jobs in there or bail out in different ways. My character's name is Skursir by the way

Well I read your page and it seems we both desert! Even for pretty much the same reason.

Well, I'm not sure how Skursir should desert, or why... I'm thinking on it though!

EDIT: By the way, can I put in a mention, saying that Skursir met up with Artekus fighting some Sith Troopers on Ord Mantell. They were defending the Republic base against a Sith Strike force. Through the use of teamwork and support, they survived were other troopers faltered and fell. Almost alone, they held out against the Sith and succeeded in defending the base. Later on, Skursir was posted elsewere, though in a year, they met up again though as bounty hunters as part of the agency. What do you think?

Right I've just been updating the E.P.O.C.H SWTOR RP-Wiki so if you have any characters or information added please let me know and I shall add you to the list. I know there's a few changes to be made since we've turned to the dark side, so any updates on characters would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

Made two minor changes, ones personal to me only.

* Altered Chief Operative to "Aleena Fel"

* Added "Ree'tak" to Agents section.


@ PJK: Have you got a Wiki Space? It'd be good to include you not only in the "Special Agent" section, but also in the contacts section in the infobox; show your correct rank'n'all...

Nope, really i've tried a few times to knucle down and make one but I find it so awkward to do and my descripsion sound aweful bleh, i'll do one though tomorrow cuase I should be up there and Red wants me to do one before I join codex.

Just a couple of things to update for my characters:

Palu never actually got to join up to E.P.O.C.H. and will be my Trooper, so he's destined for CODEX.
Redwatch is a Smuggler (for the time being) and his status has been relegated to my own personal NPC (with intent ). He's unlikely to be any of the Sith classes and he never got signed up to E.P.O.C.H. either anyway.

In fact non of my characters ever have. But I guess I've only been here seven months!Nevertheless, Lilin and Eamonn are deffinately Sith aligned bods and hopefully, if proving themselves worthy in RP, they'll earn their stripes and members card at E.P.O.C.H. soon!

Aye I know that a lot of characters haven't signed up IC yet but to make the wiki look fuller I've been adding characters based on their real life status in the guild. Seems like the sensible option anyway.

I shall however remove Palu & Redwatch if you like?

SS iam writing history to Ketene Nord, but the start age of SWTOR is ATC 30 so i can plan some family info and some few other thing.

Personally, I've deliberately left age and dates out of things until BWA officially announce that TOR is / isn't going to be set in ATC30. I know its likely, but I don't want to have to re-write everything time and again.

Up to you of course, Nord.

I agree. The last (semi-)official date for the setting that I heard was between 10 and 30ATC, so I wouldn't bother trying to pin down dates just yet. Unless you want to make things hard for yourself by basing major life-changing events around important historical events, which would make the writing difficult at this stage. But then, it took a simple mugging to turn Bruce Wayne into Batman – not WWIII – so it all depends on your personal storytelling taste I guess.

Right heres Jylan Trell he's not complete yet but I'm working on it

Awesome stuff!! Thanks PJK.

I'll add him to the Special Agents and put him on our 'Agents of the E.P.O.C.H' list.
