Melody's theme.

Melody Blackgate AKA Red Puppet Rebellion

Entry 1

My name is Melody.

I was tortured by the Sith as a child.

They took me from my parents and used horrible techniques in order to engineer themselves a legion of geniuses.

However the Galactic Alliance intervened and I and my fellow captives were released.

The best known of these is perhaps the boy genius Junior - a person I know but was never well acquainted with as I was older than him and thus kept in separate classes.

When I was broken free it was if I had been offered a place in heaven - no beatings, no experiments, no more cruel masters.

And it was good for a time. I was given a house and a job at a factory producing canned goods.

That was until one day walking home I saw three teenagers in an alley beating a Jawa to death. I couldn't stop them and by the time I had called the police they were long gone.

I got home later that night and turned on the tv. It showed the Jedi temple bombing. The Sith were still very much present in the galaxy.

I needed to do something.

But I myself was no fighter and I had no inherent force powers. I needed something that would allow me to make a difference.

And then my programming kicked in.

I made my first puppet.

The World.

A droid unlike any other connected to my thoughts through an apparatus linked directly to my brain.

Filled with technology that only one who had been forced into genius hood could conceive it was everything I was not: strong, fast and powerful.

And I could order it with my mind and the program that I had installed into control device : Red Puppet.

I began small fighting injustice here and there - stopping muggings and rapes.

But then I ran into a workers riot.

Many people were killed.

I tried to stop it but to no avail. Only saving 7 and watching helplessly as over 130 died before my eyes.

I needed more puppets.

So I created them.

I updated Red Puppet.

Red Puppet could now control 2 puppets at a time.

I drew up the designs for more and more puppets.

Finally I had plans for 21 puppets.

I created The Fool , and began work on the magician and the high priestess.

I took to the streets.

Using these puppets I could be in multiple places at once.

Controlling them through Red Puppet.

This is only the beginning though.

I quit my job at the factory and now work for an vast company as a droid designer.

This both pays the bills and lets me finance my true goals.

I will keep updating and finally I will control a legion of puppets that can stop evil and crime in the galaxy.

I dislike killing but I will if needed.

Saving innocent lives is my goal.

I am the Rebellion against corruption and evil.

I am not afraid to die so others may live.


Entry 2

It seems that my path is to fight no mundane force of evil but rather take it upon myself to face the horrors that lurk in the dark corners of the galaxy.

A part of me questions exactly why I have run into so many of them in such a short amount of time.

Perhaps it is a side effect of the experiments as a child or perhaps it is merely fate meted out by the force.

Jedi have helped me along the way - some have even saved my life. However a part of me is disturbed by the fact that all of them are padawans. Are the elders of the order off fighting greater evils or do they simply not care?

I will keep searching till I have answers.


Last will and testament of Melody Blackgate.

In the event that I am to die doing my duty I wish my earthly possessions distributed in the manner stated below.

Though it is outfitted with hover systems the High Priestess is also capable of deploying 4 large spider like legs if needed.


Specifications and Armaments: The High Priestess is not outfitted with much in the way of self defense save for a single solid shot autogun situated in its head region. Its main purpose is a supply unit. And it carries an immense variety of assorted weapons, tools and survival items that can be dispensed on command or fold out on command. Due to the heavy durasteel armour that The High Priestess is outfitted with it can be used as an effective hit shield and mobile cover. Long range communications functions are also included. Though untested it is perhaps possible to hide inside it in the case of an explosion.


Design specifications - Number 03 The Empress

Thread obtained: http://www.thestarwarsrp.com/forum/showthread.php?40817-The-Princess-and-the-Imp&highlight=

Specifications and Armaments: The Empress is a drone carrier and thus has no weapons of its own. Rather it is limited to the 20 drones that it carries. 5 of which are sword drones that carry rotatory blades and are outfitted with explosives that detonate after it takes critical damage. Pentacle drones which provide fire through ranged weapons. Wand drones that are equipped with portable energy shields and protect others. And Cup drones who are equipped with repair tools and can fix others droids damage. The Empress had medium armour which while still effective at stopping damage is not as heavy as that of the high priestess.

Design specifications - Number 04 The Emperor

Thread obtained:http://www.thestarwarsrp.com/forum/showthread.php?40849-Lost-Legion

Height: 7,8

Weight: 400 kg

Looks: The Emperor is a tall and imposing humanoid droid. It's head bears metallic spikes shaped like a crown and its body is covered in gleaming Durasteel armour. It has four large vibroblades (6 foot) that float in the air around it suspended by its magnetic control. The Emperors gaze is a golden colour and gives the impression one is being judged by the droid.

Specifications and Armaments: The Emperor has no blaster or slug weaponry on its person but rather is equipped with numerous powerful state of the art electro magnets that it uses to control its 4 swords as well as manipulate other metal objects around it making it a fearsome foe. The Emperors medium weight armour is made of Durasteel so it interestingly enough can be hit by magnets itself though its inner machinery is protected for being damaged or effected by insulation.


Design specifications - Number 05 The Hierophant

Thread obtained: http://www.thestarwarsrp.com/forum/showthread.php?40930-Harvest

Height: 5,00

Weight: 200 kg

Looks: The droid appears as a large golden scarab/hercules beetle cross topped with a small crown. Though it has wing cases it cannot fly and instead keeps multiple extra appendages under its casing. When around the Hierophant a fain whirring noise can be heard with is a by-product of its massively powerful internal computer.

Specifications and Armaments: The Hierophant is designed to both set and disarm traps and explosives. To assist with this the Hierophant possesses hardware that allows it to calculate logical outcomes based on the surrounding factors - giving it 'good guesses' at the future and the actions of the opponent. This is by no means fool proof and can be evaded but it can also be scarily accurate at times. The traps carried by the Heirophant include : Bombs, Mines , Tripwires and numerous others. The Hierophant also servers to detect all explosive devices in the area and can disarm or deactivate most any bomb. The Hierophants armour is made from Agrinium and is very resistant to explosions though not designed for melee combat or piercing weapons. The droids armaments mainly consist of its traps and if sorely pressed it will attack with its horns.


Design specifications - Number 13 Death

Thread obtained : http://www.thestarwarsrp.com/forum/showthread.php?40930-Harvest

Height: 9,00

Weight: 1.12 tonnes

Looks: Death is built to resemble a great floating skeleton. It is covered with a heavy cloak and floats due to it's lack of legs - its spine ending in a tail of sorts. In its bony hands it carries a extremely large and sharp songsteel/Vintrinium alloy scythe capable of hewing through most forms of armour. Death's skeleton provides medium armour and its cloak makes hitting any particular target on it rather difficult.

Specifications and Armaments: Death is built around a modified hyperdrive engine stored in its ribcage similar to smaller spaceships. Like most galactic ships it can go into otherspace - yet while other ships generally only go to the terrible place by accident Death is specially designed to enter this place and travel in it before reappearing in the material world. Since it is entirely mechanical it also evades the problem of the vicious Charon that lurk there. The hyperdrive is run on a small antimatter core but due to the large amount of energy used to activate this Death can easily run out of power and shut down entirely if it is done for two long. Deaths armour is comprised of ultracrome. Death's scythe - it's only armament is made of songsteel/vintrinium and is utterly devastating in combat due to its extreme shapness and toxicity to most forms of life.

Design specifications - Number 15 The Devil.

Thread obtained:http://www.thestarwarsrp.com/forum/...-goddamn-do!-My-ship!-I-m-captain!-quot/page3

Height: 12,00

Weight: 800 kg

Looks: The devil is a large and fearsome looking droid shaped like one of the demons of old. It's metallic horns and goat like head coupled with wings, talons and large height make it perhaps the most intimidating of Melodys droids. It's body is comprised of durasteel and its arms are tipped with massive talons and a tail that acts as a puncture weapon.

Specifications and Armaments: The Devil is a hunter designed to instil fear in and punish evil such as the Sith. To do this it is installed with 2 devices. Firstly it contains a halucaniative gass which causes terror in all those who inhale it , Secondly machinery that emits sounds that are are painful and disturbing to humanoids often disrupting force usage. In close combat it useless its metal claws and tail however it's main method is to terrify before attacking using its gas and sonic emitters. The Devil has medium level armour and is not designed for prolonged fights with opponents capable of exerting large amounts of force. It is equipped with both a hover and a rocket propulsion system for flight.

I'm sorry, I don't see a character here. I see a GA subfaction. And for that, I think you'll need the aproval of the GA's Faction Leader.

I'm pretty sure Weiss had that approved by the Admins. And the thing is, I'm pretty sure he can only inhabit one body at a time. He isn't a network of people capable of carrying out multiple actions at the same time.

And making it an indie or not isn't really the issue. The issue hee is that it's a group of people, not a character. My advice, is to make the leader of this group as a propper character, and then put in for creating your "Red Puppets" as a faction.

Because as it stands, this is just a group of NPCs.

Alright I will make some changes to the character. And perhaps make an indie faction.

Modified the character so that it kept the same feel but was more of an individual.

Also ADIM's machines can controll 6 droids at a time so I take it if I have 4 that should be fine.

Tommy, Tommy....

You come up with the most intricate characters I have ever read. Good read, though I think you’ll probably need separate character profiles for the said ‘puppets’??? Not sure though.

Interesting read, notwithstanding!
xD

Thanks Padme. I think I will keep the mini profiles for them but I might make them a little bit more detailed if you think it would help. The puppets are a tad different to regular droids in as long as they are not linked up to her Red Puppet Network they cannot do anything and slump like they have their strings cut. This basically means that the puppets act as her guardians when she is off fighting evil but are not really characters in their own right as they are lifeless without her. She can currently have two puppets active on the network but as she grows more experienced I want to increase the number. This way she can perhaps fight against monsters and Sith lords while actually managing to hold her own.

So Melody is your actual character, and she controls a series of droids?

Yep. She relies on droids to fight her battles considering that she is absolutley rubbish in a fight herself and has no force powers. As you may have figured out she is making a set of droids based on the major arcana of the tarot or in character a modified version of the old fortune telling Sabacc.
