    Character Example:

    Title and name: Darth Khashai
    Race: Human +30 in support skills to distribute, male
    Picture (optional):
    History:
    Before being recruited by Darth Lash, Khashai was a pirate – not just any pirate, but a pirate commanding his own armada. He was a brilliant tactician and used his abilities to raid many trade federation's ships. He was practically undefeated until he was ambushed away from his fleet... by Jedi Shaak Ti. During the battle in Cantina on Nar Shaada, the building exploded, leaving the pirate crippled, with his throat and mouth damaged. Without him, his fleets were soon defeated and routed...

    But Khashai was saved... he was saved and recruited by Darth Lash. He was taken as one of her apprentices. The damage he suffered, forced him to use a respirator for the rest of his life.

    As an apprentice, he showed talent in battle meditation and great ability to use the dark side. As he became stronger, he took several acolytes from Sit Temple... but only one showed herself to be skilled enough to be his apprentice. He started slowly rebuilding his forces – he managed to secure 'capture' one of the republic's Arquitens-class command cruisers, with the additional wing of fighters and the company of light infantry.

    After winning a duel against Darth Lash and gaining the title of Darth, Darth Khashai along with other members shared the assets of their master between themselves. He chose a factory producing starfighters and a small business that sold them...

    Now, Darth Khashai took his rightful place, as a member of the Dark Council, ready to build a new Sith Empire...

    Flaws (2):
    Respirator – due to damage to his mouth and neck, he can't breathe without a respirator. He could survive some time without it, but not for long.
    Enemy: Shaak Ti – a Jedi responsible for Khashai's wounds, he will not stop hunting her until he has his revenge.

    The dark side of the Force (mental support): 20 + 20 = 40 (prime, max 70)

    Title and name:
    Darth Kegrog

    Race :
    Zabrak +5 in physical and +10 in intimidation

    Picture (optional): [​IMG]
    (I didn't find any art for Zabrak, which I would like but this Sith race warrior suit me. He wears a hood, so it shoudn't be a problem? Because Sith race could be a little OP)

    History:
    Kegrog don't remember much of his childhood. As one of the two children of simple farmers on the Outer Rims, he work hard in the field, to earn enought for food. It was peacefull life, until some day their villiage was attacked by the pirates. Pirate crew kills Kegrog's parents and take him and his sister Raqii as the slaves.
    Because they all three build up strenght and reflex in the living in the farm, pirates sold all three to Hutts, which put them in training for the battle arena, to entertain viewers. There Kegrog discover his natural talent for the dual wielding sword and in few years, he and his sister soon become one of the best gladiators in the arena. Kegrog didn't know that, but most of his winning combats he succed by being Force sensivite, which allow him to win fight with bigger and stronger oponents. That Force sensivite was what catch attention of the Darth Lash, when she seen him on the arena, how along side with his sister Raqii, they defeats their oponents. Darth Lash sense his potential and decided to buy him and make Kegrog as her apprentice. But, despite Kegrog's pleading and asking, she didn't buy his sister, because Raqii couldn't use the Force. Kegrog tried to use his strenght to make Darth Lash what he demand, but at this time, he was simply too weak and Darth Lash simply using Force eletrix to stun Kegrog. When he wake up, Darth Lash already take him on her ship and begin his training in the Force.

    Kegrog never forgotten about his sister but with Darth Lash teaching he quicly grown up in lightsaber combat, just like before with dual sabers on the arena. Soon become clear that he works best as the assassin and spy, being able to sneak inside heavy guarded places or ancient ruins in reasearch for forbiden knowlege. Darth Lash seeing his skills and talents, she made him work together with Amajul Skakeig,[​IMG] genious but little crazy lady scientist, about history, ancient languages, and atudy of artifacts. Their relationship wasn't the best, since Lady Amajul wasn't slave, but after some unethical expirement on her home planet, she had to looking for save space to continue her studies.

    Few weeks before turning against Darth Lash, Kegrog managed to find Sith holocron in the colection of wealthy target, but he hide it before eyes of Darth Lash. Now, he finaly can put his hands on bigger power, than before.
    Flaws:
    attachment - Strong attachment to his sister, but Kegrog doesn't know where she is or ewen if she is still alive
    amputee - after losing right foot to jaws of the ancient beast, Kegrog must use prostethic leg


    Attributes:

    Mental (intelligence, wisdom, perception) – 10 + 11 = 21

    I am terrible with names, both of people and of locations, so suggestions are welcome. Any comments, suggestions, or issues that need fixing?


    Title and name: Darth Crystal

    Race: Human, Female
    (+30 in support skills to distribute)

    Picture (optional):
    Description:
    Average height, gray eyes, C-cup breasts, straight shoulder-length dark purple hair. Originally she had black hair, but she has dyed her hair numerous times as part of her job.

    Overall Crystal is average-looking, making it easy for her to blend in and not stand out. With some make up and suitable clothes she can look gorgeous, but she rarely has a reason to bother. For a thief like her not standing out was always best, and this did not change after she met Lash.


    History:
    Crystal was an orphan on the planet Nar Shada, working as a simple thief. Her life was hard but overall good... until she was hired to steal some important documents from the home of a local politician while the mark was away on business. The client warned her that the job would be difficult, and after she assured him that she could and would do it he gave her an advance payment so that she could buy whatever she needed for the job.

    Sneaking inside the politician's mansion was difficult, but Crystal managed it... and found herself in deep shit. Rather than the documents she was supposed to steal Crystal found the politician's dead wife... things quickly went downhill from there.

    Her client turned out to be the very same politician that was supposed to be away on business. The bastard had murdered his wife so that he could get a new one, and he had framed Crystal for the deed, making it seem like the wife had caught the thief in the act, Crystal had panicked and murdered her. The thief had no way to prove her innocence and was sentenced to life imprisonment. That day she swore she would have revenge and make the bastard pay.

    The ship transporting Crystal and a number of other prisoners was attacked by pirates and destroyed, and so Crystal's life ended prematurely... at least according to official records.

    The ship was indeed attacked and destroyed, but not before the prisoners were taken by the pirates and sold as slaves to one Darth Lash. Fortunately for Crystal the woman saw potential in her and took her as an apprentice, teaching her how to use the force, as well as a number of other things: how to lead, seduce, deceive... But Crystal never forgot the bastard that had set her up. Sooner or later, one way or another, she would destroy him and enslave his new wife.

    During her training Crystal showed talent for using the dark side and eventually developed an ability that allowed her to paralyze a single person. The paralysis was entirely mental, leaving the target unharmed.

    Due to her rather poor physical abilities the former thief was given a squad of bodyguards to keep her safe.

    After Lash's death Crystal took control of a small hideout in an isolated location away from civilization. Inside it she found some slaves. Fortunately her bodyguards remained loyal to her. The last thing Crystal took from her dead mentor was a stealth corvette.

    Flaws:
    Spiteful - Crystal is a spiteful bitch that does not forget. Almost every slight against her will be repaid sooner or later
    Enemy: Ahram Oritol - the politician that framed her for the death of his first wife.

    Skills/attributes/force:

    Attributes:
    Physical: 10 + 5 = 15 (max 30)
    Mental: 10 + 15 = 25 (max 30)
    Charisma: 10 + 30 = 40 (prime, max 50)

    Force abilities:

    Lightsaber: 20 + 0 = 20 (max 50)
    The dark side of the Force (mental support): 20 + 30 = 50 (prime, max 70)
    Mental Paralysis: 0 + 20 = 20 (max 50)
    Mental Paralysis is a mental attack that allows Crystal to temporarily paralyze a single person, making them unable to move or act in any way. The target is still aware and realizes what is going on, but is unable to do anything until the paralysis wears off. Works only on creatures that are both living and intelligent. Since it is a mental attack it ignores any physical defenses.

    Supporting skills: 150+30 (human)

    Sneak (Physical) 20 (max 30)
    Knowledge: Crime World (Mental) 10 (max 30)
    Persuasion (Charisma) 15 (max 30)
    Diplomacy (Charisma) 15 (max 30)
    Seduction (Charisma) 40 (prime, max 50)
    Deception (Charisma) 40 (prime, max 50)
    Intimidation (Charisma) 10 (max 30)
    Leadership (Charisma) 30 (prime, max 50)

    Lightsaber type: standard, red

    Assets:

    Contact: Brothel Owner – 3 points
    Stealth Corvette - 4 points
    An elite group of bodyguards (12 guards) – 1 point
    Secret hideout (small) – 1 point
    Slaves (12 humans total, 8 women and 4 men) - 1 point

    Notes:
    The brothel owner is a woman Crystal had worked for back when she had been a simple thief. She owns brothels on multiple planets and has contacts with a lot of important people, hence the point cost.
    The slaves are kept in the hideout and take care of various tasks, such as cooking and cleaning. While all are trained as pleasure slaves Crystal rarely calls any of them to her bed, instead preferring to watch them as they have sex with each other, or with other people of her choosing. As long as they do their jobs properly she treats them well.

    @Regin34

    I have no problem with pick. I could also suggest:

    Flaws - amputee is missing text.

    Attributes - additional 10 points to use

    Support skills
    You did not include race bonus to intimidation, so you still have 10 more points in support skill.

    Except those and things you are still to choose, he looks good.

    @moonblack

    So, I kinda went around, got myself lost, gave two different values in attributes in two different threads... So I raised attributes to use to 50.
    You have 10 more points to use in attributes.

    Mental Paralysis - is it something like stasis?

    Support skills

    Stealth - is it sneak?

    Lack of names and pic/description...

    So far looks good.
     
  7. moonblack

    moonblack CHYOA Guru

    Added 10 more points to attributes.

    Clarified Mental Paralysis' effect.

    Yes, Stealth is the ability to move around undetected. So I changed the name to Sneak instead.

    I will add names and description later.

    I've added a description for Crystal (not a picture, since I don't have a suitable one) and a name for the guy that framed her. The only thing missing is the name of the planet where Crystal used to live before her "death", but I am drawing a blank, so suggestions for that are welcome.

    (Here's what I have. I probably made a mistake somewhere, so let me know if something's not finished or if I calculated something incorrectly.)

    Title and name:

    - Grand Priestess Arilayah Hyvex (Real name)
    - Darth Isis (Sith name)


    Race (each race has different starting bonuses. Other races then presented are to be discussed with GM for possible bonuses.):
    Human +30 in support skills to distribute

    Picture (optional):
    upload_2023-4-11_19-59-3.png


    History (character's history before becoming an apprentice to Dark Lord and during the apprenticeship):
    Centuries ago, Darth Hyvex, a fugitive Sith lord, crash landed on a primitive planet far from the reach of the Republic, and outside of the Jedi Temple's records. She quickly discovered that she was the planet's only Force user, and decided to turn this to her advantage. Discovering that the medieval people of the planet mostly worshipped one god, she declared herself the prophet and grand priestess, using her powers to claim that she was divinely chosen to lead the faith. All other religions on the planet were crushed in a great crusade, and the Sith became the theocratic ruler of the planet, now named Hyvex in her honor. Wanting to continue her line, Hyvex established a personal guard made up of the strongest and brightest men on the planet, the greatest among which would be rewarded with the opportunity to lie with the grand priestess. Under the Sith's regime, any force sensitive child born on the planet outside of the family would be sacrificed before they could grow to adulthood, to ensure that only one dynasty had access to the power of the Force.

    The Hyvex dynasty still ruled the planet named after them, mother following daughter, each grand priestess inheriting their mother's position upon their death, when Darth Lash rediscovered the planet, searching for a base. A powerful Sith, Lash broke and defiled the reigning grand priestess, and took the woman's young daughter, Ariyala, as her apprentice. Observing the planet's cult and realising the power that faith has to control others, Lash used Ariyala to expand her cult to several planets throughout the galaxy, aiming to use it as a way to influence politics, perhaps even overthrowing whole planets. Before her plan could come to fruition, however, Lash was overthrown. Now, the new Darth Isis rules on Hyvex, and is eager to expand the faith further.

    Flaws (choose two flaws for your character and attach them to your character's history:
    Genuine belief - Darth Isis believes herself to be a divinely ordained ruler. This can lead to overconfidence.
    Nemesis - Former Grand Priestess Mylea Hyvex
    upload_2023-4-11_17-33-17.png
    When Darth Lash landed on Hyvex, Grand Priestess Mylea attempted to resist the invader. Instead, she was broken in body and mind, and turned into a loyal slave for the Sith. Now that Lash is dead, however, Mylea's mind has returned to her, and she seeks to retake her old position as Grand Priestess, viewing her daughter as a usurper. A natural leader and a powerful Force user, the Grand Priestess is a dangerous enemy.

    Skills/attributes/force:

    All skills/attributes/force abilities can be raised beyond initial limits during the game. Throws involve Attribute+skill to determine the outcome. Same with Force abilities. Sith lords are powerful individuals, and will be far more skilled then majority of beings they encounter.

    Attributes:

    Choose prime attribute – the attribute with have +20 starting level limit and will grow faster.
    Main attributes all starting at 10.

    Prime Attribute: Charisma

    Redistribute 50 points – attribute can have max 30 points, sans prime attribute that limits the prime skill to 50 points):

    Physical (strength, speed, endurance) – 20
    Mental (intelligence, wisdom, perception) – 30
    Charisma (cham, seduction, leadership) – 31

    Force abilities:

    Choose two prime force abilities – all starting at 20, sans the rare dark side skills. Redistribute 50 points – abilities can have max 50 points, sans prime abilities (that limit the skill to 70 points).

    Lightsaber (Physical support, might add dark side): 21
    The dark side of the Force (mental support): 31
    Mastery of rare Dark Side ability (battle meditation, alchemy, illusions, corruption, etc. Can choose multiple):
    Force Illusion: 22
    Force Illusion is a powerful ability that can project false images into the minds of individuals or crowds of people, used by Darth Isis both to manipulate worshippers, and in battle. Using this ability in conjunction with a Sith meditation sphere can amplify its power greatly.
    Force Corruption: 21
    Darth Isis can use Force Corruption to amplify all the darkest impulses and character traits of a person, while increasing their opinion of her, making it easier for her to sway people to her service.

    150 points+30 (Human)=180

    Sword imbued with dark side magic - can cut through objects and deflect energy like a lightsaber can. Emits a noxious black and red smoke when drawn.

    Assets (players have 10 points for assets left to them by Dark Lash, each can be chosen multiple times. If you want anything else, consult with GM):

    Personal shuttle/Corvette/starfighter – 1 point
    [​IMG]

    An elite group of bodyguards (12 guards) – 1 point

The twelve that remain guard the Grand Priestess with their bodies and souls, and the greatest traditionally receives the privilege of fathering the next grand priestess - the greatest honor any man on Hyvex can aspire to.
    Cult of fanatic followers (around 400 untrained people) – 1 point (x2, so 800 cultists)
    Rulership over a domain (the domain posses ) – 1 point a tribe of around 1000 beings, 6 points an underdeveloped kingdom spanning the entire planet with no military assets. 6 points

    @Tjf

    I like the history and the character, but you redistributed the points wrong. I even know how.

    Attributes.
    Redistribute 50 points - that's okay.
    additional 20 points I suspect you took from

    Choose prime attribute – the attribute with have +20 starting level limit and will grow faster.

    But that's +20 starting level limit
    So you can raise prime ability higher than non-prime abilities. Basically, you have 20 points to many in atributes.

    Force abilities.

    All starting at 20, sans the rare dark side skills. So rare dark force skills start at 0 - only power of dark side and lightsaber start at 20.

    Support skills - the sum of points is greater than 180

    Also, wow, you went for an ancient sith sword! A little unwieldy, but has a high value of coolness!

    Alright, Nar Shada it is.

    I'll stick with just a description for now, but I might use one or more of the pictures later, during the game.

    Name: Valin Sayul(Darth Ulria)
    Race: Human +30 in support skills to distribute
    [​IMG] History: Born to a proud and prominent sith family, Valin was the weakest of his siblings as a force user and largely considered a disappointment to his line. The circumstances are unclear of what exactly happened, but eventually he betrayed much of his family into a trap set by the Jedi, and defected to the Order, renouncing the Dark Side.

    Or…he never did. While nobody else might have realized it, Darth Lash had realized he did have one useful power. His mind was unnaturally difficult to probe. In secret, he trained to improve his powers while downplaying his growth to his siblings under the Darth and used the fact they expected nothing from him to wait for the opportunity to get revenge on them. In a complex web of intrigue, he assumes his regular face as a defector and takes on the mask of Darth Ulria even if only a number of people in the galaxy know it.

    As his house stands, half of his family fully believes he’s a traitor and defector and the other half aware of his true nature either keep it to themselves or cautiously prepare for the day they’ll have to act against him.

    In the order, he largely spends his time making himself out to be more of a lazy bum more interested in gambling and women than focusing on the Jedi’s proper teachings. His usual non sense is utilized to mask his true goals and while building trust is a challenge, he’s been careful to slowly but surely show he’s growing, but ensure never to show too much of his real power. Though he’s done a good enough job convincing his new master and most of the others in training that he’s well intentioned enough, many of the experienced Jedi who know of his house remain wary that a Sayul could ever be good. They’re right to doubt him.

    Flaws:
    Spider's Web-
    Lies upon lies, plans and schemes within plans and schemes. While good at what he does, the end result is those who are aware who he is also tend to be wary of him due to being just too good of a liar to every really be fully certain just whose side he's really on.
    Nemesis: There is only one sigh in his entire house that Valin fears, and that’s his oldest sister. Not just strong in the force, but smart and almost even better at obfuscating her real abilities than him. He can’t be sure if she actually believes he’s on the side of light, or just preparing for when the time comes out of pragmatism, but one day it will have to happen where they face off.

    Due to the fact he can't exactly be walking around with a glowing red sword, he replaced the crystal of his old one with a new one to symbolize his "change" but kept the hilt of his old one. His is much longer than the standard saber to give the advantage of reach and with a balanced weighted hilt to capitalize on using it.

    Title and name: Darth Maleficus (Muh-leh-fuh-cuhs)

    Race: Human

    :] Sith Lord 01.jpg You're not seeing things, he's the guy on the right!
    Maleficus rarely removes his helmet. His bare face still carries the brand from his time as a slave over the right side of his face. Despite this he would be considered classically handsome with a square jaw, high cheekbones and blue eyes (turned yellow). Even though he is only in his 30s, his hair is an unnatural white which he keeps long and styled so that it covers the right side of his face. He has an athletic and slim yet muscular build.

    History:
    "The Force is strong with this one!" ~Jedi Master Henwick upon discovering him as an infant.
    ~Also Jedi Master Swan during his training.
    ~Also Jedi Grandmaster Broga during his trials
    ~Also a Sith Acolyte before engaging him with two other Acolytes
    ~Also Sith Instructor Cruella during his Sith training
    ~Also Darth Lash when he killed his instructor​

    Raised by the Jedi after being discovered by Master Henwick, the boy who would eventually become Darth Maleficus was one of the Order's greatest prodigies. An exceptional student he displayed tremendous power and understanding within the force. Though an adequate lightsaber duelist, he excelled in mastery of the force becoming one of the youngest Jedi Knights in the Order's history, with many within the Order believing him destined to become one of their greatest masters. Sadly, this was not meant to be.

    During one of his earliest assignments by the council he and his two comrades ran afoul of a Sith Lord and her apprentices. With one of his compatriots incapacitated, he remained to engage the Sith while while his other companion retreated with the injured colleague. The battle was grueling; and while he was able to defeat the three acolytes, he was too injured and drained to conquer the Sith Lord who attacked only after her students were defeated. The aftermath of the affair was horrible as the Sith Lord tortured him for what seemed like forever, breaking his mind and wiping away his very identity.

    Shattered, broken and with no memories of his life before the Sith, through unknown means he was cast down into bondage and branded over his right eye. It was in chains where he eventually came to lucidity and existed as a slave for many years until his force sensitivity was discovered by new Sith masters. Raised out of slavery and trained in the ways of the force by the Sith his new instructors were astonished by his natural power and affinity. He surpassed them all, and then slaughtered them when Darth Lash came to destroy them.

    She took him as her apprentice and the rest is history...

    Flaws:
    Psychologically Broken - Maleficus has no memories of his time before slavery only images of his pain, fear and dread. Pleasant sensations haunt him, crippling his ability to act. Flashes of feelings associated with wiped memories plague his mind when he's amused or jovial and he has trouble focusing on the task at hand; unless removed from his ruminations by pain, he instead tries to follow the feelings back to memories that no longer exist.
    Hunted - Fallen Jedi Alexis

    and Fiona
    Fiona Goodpussy.jpg
    lost their lover recently when he was killed by Maleficus. The pair swore revenge and left the Jedi to hunt Maleficus across the galaxy.

    Attributes:
    Physical (strength, speed, endurance) – 10 + 5 = 15
    Mental (intelligence, wisdom, perception) – 10 + 15 + 20 (Prime) = 45
    Charisma (charm, seduction, leadership) – 10 + 10 = 20

    Force abilities:
    Lightsaber: 20
    The Dark Side of the Force (mental support): 20 + 30 = 50 (Prime)
    Drain Life: 20 (Prime)

    Using the Dark Side of the Force, the user drains the life-force of one being to restore their own.

    Supporting skills:
    Physical Supports:
    Athletics: 20
    Acrobatics: 20
    Endurance: 30 (Prime) = 30
    Mental supports:
    Computer Hacking: 10
    Ground Battle Tactics: 15
    Interrogation: 30 (Prime) = 30
    Space Battle Tactics: 15​
    Charisma supports:
    Intimidation: 30 (Prime) = 30
    Leadership: 10​

    Lightsaber type: Single red blade, normal grip

    Personal Corvette – 1 point
    Cruiser with a crew – 2 points
    Wing of starfighters (12 starfighters/bombers) – 2 points
    Space station – 3 points
    A factory (producing starfighters) – 2 points

    Hmm... The players would start as embers of high council... Are you going for long term infiltration, or a rouge jedi, who some think is member of the order - sans the sith council - who works in the sith space covering for them before the republic?

    Attributes are added good.
    Force skills - lightsaber and dark side start at 20.

    I look forward to the finished character!

    Attributes - you have 10 more points to us - a total of 50 points can be used in attributes.
    Force abilities - force choke and lightning are already part of dark side skill and not counted as rare skills.

    Support skills - the sum of all support skills needs to be 150 + 30 (human) = 180

    Besides that, it looks good.

    Attributes and Support Skills have been altered.

    Are Mind Reading, Precognition, and Mind Control also a part of Dark Side skills?

    A weak mind reading, mind trick and precognition are part of dark side.
