Indeed.So this is a PC you'll control?

Interesting question for everyone wanting to play senator - Do you think your character would be pro/against Jedi/Force Users? Would there be a phobia or would your character encourage cooperation? In the past, this was one of the most interesting aspects of diplomats vs. Force users. Some people trusted them, some didn't, so it led to a lot of cool plots.
Hell, at this rate maybe to be antagonistic I should be pro-Jedi instead. >.<
Actually this might be good, it'll give me something to do.- it's a fairly safe assumption to make that the further out on the Rim a planet is, the less likely it is still a member of the Republic.
Being that my Senator is the father of a Jedi, he'll be pro. I think this will make for an interesting aspect of Utapau politics considering the Utapaun Committee would still have a bad taste in their mouths from the Great Galactic War that crippled the planet, and Mother Nature is slow to heal.- Do you think your character would be pro/against Jedi/Force Users?
I just wanted to point out something as well, since I feel like it's relevant here since everyone's claiming worlds.
Remember that the Republic territories haven't been announced yet. So just because you're planning a Senator from a certain world, it may not necessarily be in the Republic at this time. In the timeline announcement, we said pretty clearly that we're planning on making the main factions much smaller and that there will be a lot more wild, independent and lawless territories. Remember also that the Republic's coming out of the end of millenia of wars - it's a shadow of itself compared to what it was at its peak, so this will probably be reflected in the territories it has as well.
Just try to keep that in mind before you get your heart set on a specific world - it's a fairly safe assumption to make that the further out on the Rim a planet is, the less likely it is still a member of the Republic.

I updated with the new folks coming in. We're up to 19 characters, which is phenomenal, considering we are MONTHS away from the timeline.
I'm going to make a Skype Chat tonight for everyone to chat in, so we can more casually chat about our Senators and questions we may be facing that will help with their construction. Feel free to continue posting here, of course. If you have a skype and would like to participate in that conversation, but do not have me added on skype, shoot me a PM!
Thanks for the reminder, Boli!
One more note along those lines: don't forget this is all just cooperative planning. None of these profiles or planet assignments are approved, as we are still trying to keep relatively focused on this timeline, and neither the thinktank nor the FLs have been put-together/selected yet.
Senator Reynolds will be leaning anti-Jedi at the beginning. Depending on what they do or do not do in the BA area, his opinion will definitely be swinging one way or the other.
