Shadows and Dust OOC

By Prophyt, in Star Wars: Force and Destiny RPG

As a non-force use I've got no skin in the game with regard to the mentor/holocron thing. I thought it made more narrative sense for it to be a holocron, but there's no reason a mentor wouldn't have been frozen along with them.

Something about having a popsickle mentor doesn't sit well with me. But perhaps an old friend, dead for 3000ish years, could mentor us from beyond the grave, Obi-Van style as a force-ghost. That could be pretty cool, and a good tool for the GM as well.

Oh, I was just curious as to why a holocron was the majority vote instead of a mentor. Once you all have made a final decision, I'll put it in my notes

As far as lightsaber crystals, that's up to you guys and how far you travel.

From a game-mechanical point of view I much prefer a mentor and a ship to a holocron and a ship. It's just if there is a mentor-figure frozen alongside the rest of us that sort of makes the rest of the popsicle-Jedi the second fiddle to this mentor. This could, of course, be solved with a benevolent Force-Ghost...

It will certainly be high on the list of priorities for the popsicles, once we figure out that the stasis damaged our crystals. -_-

Or you know...both

I am okay with a rotating slot.I really enjoyed creating a Jedisicle concept.

Here is Sonya Damascene

She can either be unfrozen when convenient or just have been very self absorbed.

Oh dear. All her fur? Is she the Jedi equivalent of Dr Evil's cat? :D

I prefer a Mentor (mechanics wise) over a Holocron (mechanics wise).

Thought a Mentor (mechanics wise) could actually be a Holocron from a Master on Ossus and capable of training us further.

Like the holocron in Chronicles of the Gatekeeper?

I haven't played or read Chronicles of the Gatekeeper

Ah Nevermind then

With so many others going for Shadow maybe I should pump Will instead of Int and think about going into Seer instead?

Yes. I thought Bigglesworth syndrome would be a fun nod to Devaronian women having fur then not in later illustrations... Plus interesting to role play the self consciousness of having external side effects from the cryogenic sleep as well as the others.

If you need a pilot, I can change her proficiency from planetary to space pilot. She can spend most of the time watching the ship and working on her katas, joining in the adventures when there are openings.

As long as you're all deliberating, you're free to re-spec your characters as you see fit, pending my approval

I like the idea of a Force ghost mentor - apart from anything else they could help to catch up the Jedicicles with the events that have transpired recently.

I need to make a spreadsheet...or 6

That's the best part!

I've got a rank in space piloting, but not in planetary. Might be useful for one of us to have space and the other planetary.

Alright, formally casting my vote for a Mentor (Force-Ghost buddy of the ancient Jedi (Jedicicle is such a negative term I think...!) preferably) and a ship.

Okay, that's one vote. Keep the official count coming in.

/\ /\ /\ Ditto.

Okie dokie. That makes two official votes.I also have 1 unofficial vote from Jedi Ronin and a half unofficial vote each from sonovabith and Richardbuxton

So my vote is both official and half unofficial? Am I Schroedinger's voter?
