Title: Undercity Blues
Type: Character Plot
Brief: A journey to join the Jedi Order

1. What is going to happen in your plot?
This is a character arc. Danathan Far once was an average joe working as administrator for a durasteel factory in Coruscant. One day the Force awakened in him, and he has been receiving visions ever since. When Danathan gets lost in Coruscant's Undercity, he has had to survive. The Force has been sending him visions and/or coming to his aid every now and then. He's also running into various individuals helping him on his path, one of which is a Jedi (Vin Pavan/Wit). This Jedi explains to Danathan that he has the potential to be a Jedi himself. Next, Danathan will learn more about the Force, and ultimately find himself a way to Ossus and become a member of the Order, embarking on the path of the Jedi Consular. This entire plot is essentially a deep character study of who Danathan is, what impact the Force has on him, and it will align him with his life's purpose: ultimately becoming a wise Jedi Consular/spiritual zen master/beacon of light in a galaxy full of darkness (of course, attaining these high levels of spirituality/Jedi mastery are goals beyond this first plot: this is only just the beginning of a long-term story plan).

2. What other players will be a part of this?

3. Where are all the places (if more than one) that your plot will be taking place?
Coruscant Undercity for the most part. Arrival at Ossus at the conclusion.

4. Please provide a basic in-character timeline of what you expect to happen.
  • Danathan encounters two exiles in the Coruscant Undercity (thread 1).
  • Next Danathan meets Jayjack Birdleve (Warwick) who helps him navigate through level 1313 and Danathan has his first brush with the Dark Side (thread 2).
  • In thread 3 I want Danathan to meet a Jedi (Vin Pavan/Wit) and learn to handle a blaster to transition from helpless average joe to more of an adventurer. He will have some more Force experiences here also, such as visions or spontaneous outbursts of low-level Force Push, thus underscoring the fact that he needs guidance to get it under control. Additionally, he will be forced to use a blaster on an NPC, thereby being confronted with death/killing. As Vin Pavan (Wit) has undergone a similar experience, the characters will have a conversation about what killing means. These kinds of philosophical topics will be recurring themes in subsequent RPs and plots that I will write with Danathan.
  • In thread 4, the last of this plot, Vin and Danathan will travel to Ossus, learning more about the Force as they are traveling. Finally they will arrive at Ossus and Danathan becomes a member of the Order. He will meet Vishhkar (Arclight) on Ossus as well, who will start training him.
  • Thematically, it will be like Danathan has to climb up through hell (Coruscant Undercity) to heaven (outer space and ultimately the Jedi world of Ossus). It also means I’m building this character, literally, from the ground up seeing as he starts out so low in the Undercity without any skills or experience.

5. What do you or your character hope to achieve with this plot? What is the "end-game"?
The end-game is for Danathan to find his way to the Jedi Order and join their ranks to first embark on the path of the Jedi Consular. He will learn more about himself, the wider Galaxy, the Force and the Jedi.

6. Do you need any involvement of canon NPCs or faction leaders to be DMed by a staff member? If so, please detail who/what and for what purpose.
I do not require NPCs.
