Star Wars: The Age of War

A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away...



[glow=blue,2,300] Star Wars: the Age of War [/glow]


Conflict and turmoil faces the Galactic Republic. The Trade Federation's hostile takeover of Naboo had only been the start of something much bigger and much worse. The Galaxy is being thrown headfirst into the start of a civil war as the Separatists are revealed. They have begun to convince planets to secede from the Republic and join the new and growing Confederacy. First seen as just a threatening problem, the Separatists have at last proven the gravity of the situation after the assassination of Supreme Chancellor Valorum. Even worse, some worlds have started to be taken by force.

As the Senate scrambles to find new leadership and make plans for the oncoming war, the Republic Army begins to grow in numbers and train for land and space combat. The Jedi are also preparing to assist the Republic, but they may be facing something much larger than any of the Council members may have even thought. After the reveal of Darth Maul on Naboo, they now know that the Dark Side has risen once more and the Sith are back in the Galaxy. Only one of the two Jedi to have fought him during the Battle of Naboo came back alive, but he managed to kill the Sith.

Unfortunately, questions still remain. Was Maul the Master or the Apprentice? Who and where is the other Sith? And who will now be the second to take his place? The Council also wonders after the prophecy of the Chosen One, who has yet to be found or revealed. In the upcoming Age of War, will the Republic remain strong and the light side ultimately prevail?

Welcome to Star Wars: The Age of War!

This is an Alternate Universe roleplay, where the beginning time frame takes place just after The Phantom Menace. However, things may or may not turn out this time the same way it does in the movies. That is up for you to decide!

This AU rp will start in the times of civil war with the Separatists beginning to make their moves. It will continue up to and through the Clone Wars.

The result of the Clone Wars may or may not be the same. Perhaps this time the Republic will win out, the Sith will be crushed, and peace will remain. Maybe the Republic will win and the Sith will remain and fight the Jedi more. Who knows? It will unfold as new members bring on characters and fight for either sides.

New, non-canon members are acceptable and encouraged. It is actually tougher to obtain a canon member, and then it's up for you to decide where they go after this. Perhaps Anakin Skywalker does not succumb to the Dark Side this time. Maybe there is a different Chosen One. Again, this will play out.

- Original Characters - There is a character list or playable and nonplayable characters. Original characters are encouraged
- Canon Characters - We allow canon characters from this time period. However, we only accept more advanced roleplayers and those with the time for it for the canons. Likely, they may not play as large a part as they do in the movies, as this is an alternate universe, so keep that in mind.
- Number of Characters - You will have a main character, and then you are allowed up the three other characters per account (that means it can be on the same). Past that would be confusing for others, so if for some reason you want more (and can keep up with them!) then make another account with the same rules.
- Applications - Please use the application template for you profiles. Follow the guidelines posted along with it.
- God-Modding - This happens way too much, and it will not be tolerated here. You may even receive a warning for this if it's excessive.
- Jedi - Concerning age, please keep in mind that when Anakin came in at the age of 9, that was an extreme rarity, just because he was too old to come into the Temple. If you have a Jedi, please have them starting out at a really young age so it's realistic. We don't want 20-somethings coming in and becoming masters in a matter of years.
- Maturity - We ask that you please keep the maturity of the board to the PG-13 setting that is seen in the Star Wars movies. For example, cursing is not overdone and sex is not seen. If the latter is to happen, please go into a fade-out.
- Pregnancy and Death - We don't want pregnancy to be an overdone thing either, not that I expect it to be. And there will be absolutely NO deaths without the permission and prior planning of the to-be-deceased party.
- Time Passing One year equals one month.
- Time Frame - This is set in 32 BBY, that is around the time right after The Phantom Menace in the films. Please keep all ships, weapons, and other technology to the time frame of the era around the Clone Wars.

((Ok both of you, please don't start a fight. If you think someone broke a rule then ask one of the admins or pm them about it. I personally hate public displays of fighting over rules. ))
