Location: Ziost
Time: Dusk
It was almost genius when it came down to it. Where better to go to test those who would seek to follow his ways than a world as harsh and unforgiving as the teacher which they sought? The sun was going down and with it, the temperature, soon the already unbearable landscape would become potentially lethal and those were the conditions that he expected his students to ultimately endure in order to prove their worth as apprentices of one of the most famous (self proclaimed) Sith Warriors in the galaxy.
Having taken the time to borrow a few surveillance probes from the Sith academy, Jorath had set them out across the wastes in order to monitor the activity of the three whom he anticipated the arrivals of. Armed only with the coordinates which would place them in the center of the wastes, they would be nearly two miles from a destination which he so nicely worded in his letters to the three of them.
'Potential Acolytes and Probable Failures
I have sent you to this location with one simple objective. Come and meet me. You are free to use anything which you've brought with you with the exception of any kind of vehicle or beast. As you arrive at the coordinates provided, you will seek out my location which is a memorial to a broken man and a reminder of what we must not allow ourselves to become.
As a word of caution, you might notice the temperature getting lower as time passes by and the sun sets above you. You've got about an hour to safely make it inside of the temple before the temperature drops to where -very- few species will find themselves to be too comfortable outdoors.
You might also notice that there should be three of you. I will only be taking on two apprentices and one of you has already been chosen. In preparation for the dangers you will face with the unpredictability that comes with being my student, if my chosen apprentice does not arrive in tact, I will kill anyone who does manage to make it through the trial. You are more than welcome to try and eliminate your competition but be warned that choosing the wrong person may lead to your undoing.
Best of luck.
Jorath Baylor'
With the letters having been provided days in advance and preparations being made, Jorath had taken it upon himself to arrive some time ahead of schedule, traveling through a hidden passageway found in the wreckage of a statue of a long dead Sith Warrior whom Jorath had affectionately chosen due in part to the fact that it's subject was the Gatekeeper of the Holocron that had instructed him in his time as an Acolyte. Beneath the ruins, a shrine of sorts had been created which would lead anyone who entered through a series of hallways which displayed fading murals of warriors of the past, some of which led to dead ends and some of which would lead to a central chamber. The entire complex seemed to radiate heavily with the dark side, something which would perhaps serve to draw someone with any capacity to sense it into it's immediate vicinity.
Positioned in the center of the chamber a throne of stone could be found, oversized even for the seven foot tall four hundred pound armor clad man who sat within it, drumming his gauntlet covered fingers upon the arm rest, a bored look on his face as glanced around the empty chamber, momentarily glancing over the statues that lined the pathway leading up to the throne, impatiently awaiting the arrival of his would be students.
"I really should have just beaten the hell out of all of them and picked the first two to stand up.." he regarded quietly in lament of the time that he would have to wait to see his efforts pay off.
As a note, I don't expect/want you guys to kill each other but keeping it interesting in regards to making it to the temple would be appreciated. This threads gonna be used as a meeting between your characters and mine and let me see how well you guys will click with me.
