Rutan. The world had been fighting a not-so-civil war for decades with it's moon, Senali. Atrocities had been committed on both sides. And it was into this hell that Vennfandalkass had been dispatched. Why anyone in the Jedi had thought that he would be ideally suited for this mission, the...

I return! Again! None of you will remember me, but it seems like I came back at the right time!

Character Name: Vennfandalkass Link to their Profile:http://www.thestarwarsrp.com/forum/index.php?threads/vennfandalkaas.65752/ Desired Rank: Knight He was approved previously, but i'm returning from inactivity so putting him up here again.

Congratulations on the approval. However, what Reya and Vit'al said still ring true. Your profile is also something of an introduction for people who are looking for others to RP with. If your profile is full of spelling errors, reads in a non-coherent manner, and appears generally as if the...

I always kind of pictured Brandon to be Obi-Wan-Esque. Not McGregor Obi. But like... Crotchety cave dweller Obi. The whole smiling not-old-person thing.... I need a minute.

Good point XD

16 is a bit young, but didn't Padme become Senator of Naboo at around 18-ish?

I'm not a leader of any sort, so feel free to ignore this. Would the Jedi accept an ex-sith Lord's offspring as an apprentice? And if they did (Entirely possible) would they let her retain the 'dirty fighting' and training she'd been given before her arrival with the Jedi, since a lot of that...

The only bad question is an unasked one, or something....just pretend I just gave you a bit of sage advice. For real though. If you have any questions then there's a legion of people more than happy to help answer everything. I know it can be a bit overwhelming at first.

^All of that. Welcome to the site! You can't leave now, you're stuck here, so make yourself at home. You'll have a blast.

Venn has in fact been approved. Shoot me a PM if you'd like, we can talk about it.

"Those who ignore history are doomed to repeat it" But honestly I think that it's a lot of Cold War paranoid mixed in with human nature. In the US, just 30 year ago, kids learned how to survive nuclear war in school, because there was at the time the very real possibility of a nuclear war. It's...

Because, like I said, the Chinese and Russian governments have been doing this for generations. In those parts of the world, conscription and drafts are commonplace, and while their people grumble, and sometimes rebel a little, that's the way that those countries operate. In the US, where the...

I think you may not have read my previous posts. I explained why this is. China and Russia spend as little money as possible in favor of sheer manpower. Saudi Arabia spends a tremendous amount of money on it's army (I think something like 6k USD per person per year) primarily because the...

Like I said, that's because the UK has a population and land to defend that is tiny compared to the US. But actually, the UK falls into the same boat as the US as I described in my last post. The UK, with a small (By comparison) population, has to invest money to keep it's military able to...

The reality is that for the majority of history, a nation that hasn't maintained enough of an army to deter invasion eventually is invaded. While we'd like to think that, in the Information age, we're past such barbarism, the reality is that a mere 75 years ago, Nazi Germany was busy invading...

Quite right. Especially for large corporations, there are tremendous loopholes that allow wealth to be redistributed in the wrong direction. The tax system is a bad one, and I think you'd have a hard time finding someone who could say with a straight face that the system of taxation in the US...

I've always been amused by this notion that being in "the 1%" automatically makes you an evil person, worthy only of further taxation. Every problem is a direct result of 'them' and their evil 'wealth.' You want to know what happens when you tax the wealthy to the point where what is in many...

Historically I think this actually happened a few times. The Mandalorians (By that time working as mercenaries) managed to make enough of a nuisance of themselves that the Jedi dispatched a rather large team to deal with them. This is how Jango Fett ended up bare handedly killing a few Jedi...
