Impressive work on dat RAID file.

Thanks

Added a list in the second post listing possible RPs I'd be game for with people, partly as they'd be part of his time skip history (thus would be flashbacks).

:CStern Did anyone read it? He kills his newlywed wife Teta Vol Fyr after the marriage is solidified, backstabbing her (as he had learned she planned to do similar at their honeymoon).

Also, I kinda guessed where Geist could be active during the time skip. If things don't work, let me know and I'll change things.

I read that.

Reminded me of something George R. R. Martin might write.

Geist killed his wife because he realized it was one of his illusions that came to life and fell in love with him. He killed it out of rage; not just the rage that he was deceived, but the rage of knowing that only an imaginary person could fall in love with him.

Way to attribute half the Sith Order and Imperium's successes during the time skip to Geist...

You promised you wouldn't tell anyone! :CCry1

I disagree. The Bimmisaari ambush was other people's machination, with Geist just brought to help solidify the false intel. He didn't even participate in the ambush. Kashyyk is nothing more than a few small missions (flashbacks planned with Slyper and Rookwrr). Geist's participation at Corellia was small time too, added to coincide with some flashbacks I'm doing with a couple Corellian Jedi. Umbara I admit I took a leap at, and awaiting Rom's decision to see if I'll be allowed to keep it. I added Geist's work with Arch'elie'lia because he generally has been her Sith contact prior to the time skip (along with her twin brother, but Zach's gone). Geist was added to the final Duros strike, as it mentions "lords" were sent there in the time skip writeup, so I thought might as well add Geist as there's not many lord PCs at this time. Geist does not participate in the Bestine IV invasion; he was attacked by a small Bestine fleet, and he only barely got out of that. Hapes (which even that is small time work) I added because I was going to try to get a flashback of Geist encountering Duchess Siennaa which me and TAC considered as a possibility in the past.

I think the main point here, and it’s the biggest and most prevalent criticism there is of your character, is that you shoehorned him into a lot. Not everything on this site has to involve Geist Weiss. Everyone does and should have the opportunity to be involved in big events, but I don’t know of any other character who is added into so many events the way Geist is - especially NPC events.

Geist was there at the meeting where the Jedi Council told the Chief of State they were leaving. I'm sure of it.

No he wasn’t. I was in that thread. It was this thread. Geist wasn’t there.

True. I need to work on that. Massively.

EDIT:

In that consideration, I think I'll look at the time skip history again. Some of the plots I added at planets were do to time skip ideas I had or were proposed to me. I'll see where I can remove some and put some at other planets instead so I'm not everywhere in so many of the events that occurred during the time skip.

I've edited his time skip history. He's a whole lot less involved now, as to coincide that he's not so shoehorned, which I know I have a problem of doing ("Hi, I'm Weiss, and I'm a shoehornholic"). He's involved with some stuff, but not as much as before, so that he's not appearing, as Cassanova once put it,

...[a] miracle mastermind behind the galaxy's state of 'wtf'...

Which wasn't my full intention. I had tried to get Geist somewhat active and playing his part, but I went [ST]a little bit[/ST] out of control. Luckily it works out anyways. Slypher's plot ran into issues so it won't occur and Rookwrr's thing I can do post-time skip, so removing Battle of Kashyyk was easy. A few of the people I was RPing elsewhere in battles I can talk with them and see if we can arrange them post-time skip and not on a major battlefield. And to clarify, by "keeping tabs" I mean keeping an eye on things, not necessarily involvement.

It's funny, as you hit your 100th thread, you're also hitting the 100th post in this thread

Isn't that what this entire website's for?

:CHappy

EDIT:

And who's got the 100th reply?

That's right. Me.
