piñata: missing a lekku? wouldnt that seriously impare a Twi'Lek? And guys, yeah you can use Jedi, but that doesn't mean that once we get this going you can just go and kill everyone and stuff. I think we'll have to make some base rules about combat and whether or not characters can kill each other.

Some rules would be nice. I'd be interested though.

That's the idea. He's a character from a fan fic whose disregard for anyone's safety, including his own, makes him the perfect demolitions expert. He winds up blowing himself away eventually, but not until what I estimate to be far after this RPG would take place.

I'd join but don't have a clue about online RPG's Well, most of the rest of us don't either. As far as I can gather, only Morbaruk and maybe Karda Jadefire (where'd you go anyway?) have done this before. So, join the club. ;D

Done it before? Hell yeah... My life revolves around reading sci-fi novels and RPing... For the most part, it's quite easy. Basic rules are:
No auto hitting ( Attacking without giving the opponent a chance of escape, IE " Fires a bolt that hits his heart..." crap like that.)
No god-moding ( Doding attacks unrealistically.)
Not really a rule, but don't be cliche. I mean don't be a black garbed assassin with perfect aim. It's boring as hell. Unless, of course, you're a Kubaz.
As far as killing goes, I'm fine with it, so long as, as mentioned above, nobody autoes or godmodes. I was thinking of a new character...
Species: Codru-Ji Name: Halgranth Weapon: Drearian Defense Conglomerate sporting blaster, various scalples, vibroblades, and fusion cutters. Personality: Mentally Ill geneticist, fond of bio-engineered diseases and his mutant creations. Among these are a six armed Wampa, a super-fast gammorrean with brain implants for loyalty purposes, and an in-progress gorax experiment...

Oh yeah, as for ships... Halgranth has a heavily modified and refurbished Xiytar transport ( Hyperspace Marauder) It has been modified inside and out, suited for " Surgical purposes" It has a very VERY sophistocated sensor jamming system. It is assisted in piloting, to make up for it's lack of crew, by two seven-armed pilot droids. It has little armament, with only two fire linked ion cannon turrest on either side of the front section. They are fed by independant power generators. The ship is also armed with an experimental EMP torpedo launcher, capable of shutting down vessels as large as imperial Strike cruisers.
He exists in a waning-republic time period, late in to chancellor palpatine's tenure. He carries his own model of a jawa ionization blaster, having been modified to be quite similar to the later released imperial EMP gun.

One more, just for controversy's sake...
Name: Porlin Rahks Species: Synthdroid Desc.: Largely unrecognized military genius, he is a stormtrooper platoon leader, who had a run-in with Xeno Squad, and has nurtured a vendetta against all it's members for some time. Is currectly in command of a hijacked imparator II class star destroyer, with enhanced shields and weapons systems. Two carrack cruisers provide support fire, while the scores of tie/d fighters and experimental ties armed with a heavy turbolaser (I forget what they're called) take out fighters and lighter capital ships. Is currently hiding in the unknown regions, trying to rally support from nearby systems... Weaposn: Vibroknife, stormtrooper one rifle, occasionally carries different weapons, including a specialized E-Web blaster with a micro-shield generator.

Oh, great. As if Warhog Goa, Dyzz Nataz, Navik the Red and basically the entire Hutt crime syndicate weren't enough, Xeno Squad now has another enemy. Actually, I think it's a pretty cool idea. If played correctly, animosity between characters can be fun in an RPG.

Just one more thing...
Name: Hivrak
Species: Nagai
Desc.: Dark jedi, trained in the unknown regions. Has destroyed an entire Yuuzhan Vong planetary invasion fleet, using almost absurdly sharpened abilities of Battle Meditation, as well as arcane sith "life-sucking" to fuel his own power. He has practiced lightsaber combat and deuling with simple knives and vibroblades so much that it seems abnormal. But one does tend to have spare time when there are no imperial or New Republic intrusions. Is currently fighting with his Nagai brethren ABOARD an enemy worldship, left stranded from the first attempt by the Vong at Zonama Sekot.
Weapons: Single-bladed Lightsaber with red blade, twin vibroblades, occasionally uses seekers for assassination purposes.
Ship: Uses modified cloakshape fighter. Engine upgrade, larger, more advanced power generator, hyperdrive, cluster missles asopposed to concussion, and has removed laser cannons, opting for a turbolaser. The turbolaser is slightly less powerful then those found aboard corellian corvettes, but is shaped like a long cylinder, instead of a turret. It runs along the top of the fighter, in the middle, where the main body and cockpit are. Also owns an Assassin-class corvette, crewed by Nagai warriors with minor force talent and training.

Fine then, crush my raw and unpracticed creative ability. Party pooper! I assume you mean the having followers part... so I've got another character ( I'm researching the dark side... just had my birthday, and I got the darkside sourcebook...) Name: Kilve Species: Llordian Affiliation: Empire; Prophets of the dark side Weapons: Twin sith swords ( alchemically enhanced swords, able to deflect blaster bolts and lightsabers. Yes, it does exist.) Occasionally uses Sith Lanvarok ( disk-throwing thing that looks like a rocket-launching thingy, Like the one Boba had. Fires a flurry of sharp little disks.) Description: Is practicing Sith Swordsmanship, after falling under the impression that a lightsaber is too conspicuous to use. Still, he carries a lightsaber while his swordsmanship is raw and unfinished, but will soon change. He is almost done with his studies of Sith Alchemy, mastering the creation of poison, among other things. How could he know of such devices? Perhaps a little seen crystaline structure?
