Ebberla will open that window for her. :CSly

 

[Green Ranger]

I like where this is headed.

 

[Prancing Yawn]

Wtf is this about a baby?

Wtf is this about a baby?

She takes the morning train. She works from 9 to 5 and then she takes another home again.

 

[Prancing Yawn]

You mean she takes the...

MIDNIGHT TRAIN

!!!!!!

I personally just assumed Adalii, being a Councilor-level controller of the Force that she is, had some way to cope with those natural urges. Like eating a huge ass bantha buffet every weekend.. but what do I, really, know? I'm sure there's some plausible way of going about that.

So, if we're doing a meeting, I'll get something up tomorrow.

 

[Master Maverick]

True... it's quite obvious I didn't fully think through this character.
Also, I'm quite ignorant of many species, but this is an awesome learning opportunity for me. Just to let you all know, she'd be more than willing to change; to not feed any more and find a way to sate her urges. That could be something someone or a couple of you can help with. Just an idea, of course.

Well, we'll see what happens! It shall prove to be quite interesting.

 

[GABA]

Slightly unrelated topic at hand, but Matt, quit blowing holes in walls in our temples.

Edit: Also the Dark Sider Circe is on Tython. Link.

 

[Brandon Rhea]

So...was Jhon invited? If so, how should it be handled? If anyone was to call him in for help, it would most likely be Kara.

 

[Prancing Yawn]

I can edit it to being somewhere else other than the Jedi Temple. Kara in that thread said she wouldn't set foot in the chambers again, anyway, so we could say she took that literally? O_O

 

[Master Maverick]

I think Jhon should make an appearance. If Kara doesn't call for him, Adalii will.

Edit: Also the Dark Sider Circe is on Tython. Link.

Is this allowed?

 

[Green Ranger]

Is this allowed?

I'm not exactly happy with it, but its somewhat acceptable, I guess.

As for Kara? She won't set foot in the Council chambers until the situation is resolved, to clarify.

 

[GABA]

Wait, I'm confused, so who is coming to this meeting and where is it going to be held?

 

[Matt]

Bit behind here, what's going on?

 

[Green Ranger]

The almost snide remark wasn't taken well by the Lore Master. Who was this child to belittle and demean me in such a way? Adalii herself had been around well over 200 years before she was even born. She thought it rather arrogant of her to suggest that Adalii didn't have full control over her emotions.

She was perfectly mindful of her state of mind. Even so, she remained silent. The only hint of her dissatisfaction with the comment was a tightening of the jaw. She would not apologize for speaking her mind. Not when she was being accused with such a heinous crime.

She listened as Kara further suggested and assumed fanciful tales. They were, of course, in the best of interests, however she felt them misplaced. It almost made up for the previous remark except for the fact that the 2 had never even informally met, so the young woman knew little about Adalii.

At least, what wasn't in the records. Which happened to be quite a bit. Serving under the Lore Master and then becoming one did have its perks, after all.

"I have fed before." The statement stood alone for a number of short moments as she allowed the room to settle at this revelation.

"There was a time when I almost gave fully into my temptations. However, my former Master, the former Lore Master before Lecchamemnon, helped me cope with the urges." Finally turning her face upwards, she added, "This was well before ever of you were even thought of being conceived, so you wouldn't know of this time."

Shifting in her seat slightly, she continued, "I left the Order for a number of years with the approval of my Master. I learned of myself, my true self. I have learned to control my urges." Again, she paused, working at formulating and organizing the story in her mind before saying it.

"Presently, I feed once a week. Simply enough to sustain myself. While my victims do indeed die, I only feed upon those scum that the Jedi would never look at twice."

"Forgive me, good sir...masters, but this is too much. I'll not sit on a Council with a serial killer, especially one who knows the Force so intimately. Prematurely ending the life of another, whether you admit it or not, is about as Dark Side as it gets, regardless of the reasoning behind it. I will not condone murder, nor will I support the so-called wisdom of a Council that would appoint such a person to their ranks.

Kara walked slowly to the door, glancing over her shoulder a final time.

"If you need me, I'll be in my quarters. But I will not set foot in this chamber while any of our most senior members so blatantly dance with the Dark Side. Good day."

And she was gone.

tl;dr Mav's char admitted to killing on a regular basis to feed. My character threw a mild tanty and stormed out, refusing to sit on the Council next to a serial killer.

 

[Prancing Yawn]

So how about this: Kara knows where Jhon is hiding and the rest of the council meet them there?

 

[Green Ranger]

Archive rules and guidelines are up.

I also moved the NAIM thread to the Galactic Alliance military section for now, until I get the chance to do the GAIA rewrite.

I've also got to finish the GA naval write-up, and make a few changes to some of the other tech in that thread. Is there anything else I'm missing that needs to be done for the review?

As for Kara bringing Jhon out of hiding, you'll have to speak to Bac about that one, because I don't know what his plans are.

 

[GABA]

Just some housekeeping things:

This thread needs its links updated. Also the GA military Roster should go through some updating. Someone noticed, I've noticed for a while, but was too distracted to mention anything for the time being.

Possibly even move the training guidelines to the training sign-up section?

They're kind of oddly placed in the Jedi OOC.

The rules and guidelines look great btw.

 

[GABA]

Ok, double posting boys.

1. So now the battle freeze has been lifted, what are our plans? I know we have skirmishes up, but are there any plans for an actual battle to come with the Sith?

2. What about Adalii? Are we doing this thread?

3. Council meeting request with Weiss, we should probably let him know sometime soon, same as Phil.

 

[Matt]

Why do they want council meetings?

 

[GABA]

Weiss' Request:

(In reality, not necessarily needing to meet with the entire council, or any councilors at all. It's a delegations/negotiations meeting, so non-Jedi Councilors could do it instead if desired. Note, the Imperium will not attempt any funny business (well, trying to kill you guys at least. Propaganda is another story :CSly )
Character Name: Imperial delegation team (TBA)
Character Rank and Faction: Imperial delegation team
Reason for meeting: Long story short, it's a bit of a farce attempt to end the war. The Imperials are willing to end the fighting 'if the ones who declared war first, the GA, were to surrender to them' while the Jedi/GA get to see how stubborn the Imperium are along with some possible interfactional chara development between some of the delegation charas and the GA/Jedi party.
Link to Character: :bitchez

I had given my opinion that it was too soon for negotiations since we haven't really done much of a war, minus the time with the battle freeze.

Phil wanted to meet with the council with the follow issue:

To be perfectly honest, the path the Mandalorians are going, and may actualy go down. As the one who signed the treaty for their "alliance" and for us to basically have our own land on some of your planets you and the Alliance owns, I feel I should go and inform/warn the Jedi Alliance about recent events that are happening with the Mandalorians, and that possible Civil War may rise in them. Mainly because I'd not want the Jedi Alliance caught off guard should the splinter group or the original Mandos attack you guys.

Bac had expressed:

If it's him just giving the Council a head's up, that's one thing, but it shouldn't be in person. The Jedi Council shouldn't get involved in the internal affairs of the Mandalorians. Additionally, an in-person audience, rather than Phil sending a message, sends a signal to the Mandalorian separatists that the Jedi are on the side of the main Mandalorians.

Regardless of whose side the Council would want to support, the IC politics of diplomacy would say to remain neutral until the Council, as well as the Alliance government, could determine what's actually going on and who the separatists are.

Plus, Phil's character isn't Mandalore anymore. He's a Captain, if I recall correctly. The Jedi Council doesn't have the IC time to deal with an audience with a Mandalorian Captain, and so they shouldn't spend the time on it -- regardless of his former rank.

I agree with Mav and Bac with just having him send the council a message. I don't think we should dabble with the Mandalorians until more serious issues arise that directly affect the GA and Jedi.
