    Open Tatooine My Only Hope

    Ori was pretty agnostic on the question of whether there was a creator of the universe. Maybe the Force was all there was or maybe there was something deeper, maybe there was someone behind the curtain of the universe pulling the levers of creation. However, if there was one thing Ori was...

    Open Bittersweet Memories

    Beep! "To: Ardell, Ori Topic: Payment This is an automatic message, please do not reply. Package #1247 has been marked and received, payment has been credited to your account. Keep up the good work!" Ori scrolled through his datapad as he approached The Crooked Smile. He checked his...

    A Past Buried

    Ori stepped inside the room, the inner chamber of a Sith tomb. The chamber was completely dark and Ori couldn't see a thing, but something compelled him to walk forwards. He always had to walk forwards. After a few moments of walking, Ori came to the center of the chamber where there was a...

    Plot Onderon The Unnamed Tomb

    Ori smiled at Max and took his lightsaber, which he gripped tightly. He felt a lot better now he had his weapon back and he wasn't planning on letting it go this time. When they entered the next chamber, upon spotting the droid, Ori moved his hand and was ready to ignite his lightsaber before...

    Ask Routine missions are safe, aren't they?

    "True," Ori said in reply to Fiach's observation that they raiders were easy to find, "On the other hand, they could be using multiple locations and Stredak only knew of this one. We may have just been lucky this time." He finished playing Devil's advocate and took a moment to pause and take in...

    Ask An Elegant Weapon

    "Thank you, I hope I am able to maintain my sportsmanship." Ori said with a smile, in reply to the assessment. From his Ataru stance, Ori took careful note of Max's positioning. Hopefully being on the offensive would fare better for him, and with the catacombs being a relatively open space, Form...

    Plot Onderon The Unnamed Tomb

    There was a loud alarm through the prison which startled Ori. He scrambled to his feet and watched as the other prisoners in their cells all gathered their respective doors. It was opening time. This was particularly bad for Ori, who everyone seemed to be staring at and not in a nice way. When...

    Plot Onderon The Unnamed Tomb

    When the trap activated, Ori was immediately thrown into full-on panic mode. He tried to remember his training, that this was simply a trick of the Dark Side. But it was of no use, the fear had overwhelmed him. Suddenly, there were shadows all over the room. Innumerable shapeless creatures which...

    Ask Routine missions are safe, aren't they?

    "True, this could be a test of our initiative," Ori said, then adding, "Stredak could also be manipulating us to deal with a problem that he hasn't been able to." Both were possible and Ori knew which one he believed more, but either way, they needed to proceed with care. If they acted rashly...

    Ask An Elegant Weapon

    The appearance of the second blade caught Ori off guard somewhat and he was forced adjust his stance slightly to avoid being overwhelmed. Quick thinking was required now. As Max correctly noted, he could not do two things at the same. His training told him he should operate on the defensive, it...

    Plot Onderon The Unnamed Tomb

    Ori resisted the urge respond with sarcasm, as he was wont to do, "I've always had faith in you Max, since the day we met." He followed Max to the entrance of the tomb and observed the carvings keenly. There was no way for him to know what the words said, but he could feel something coming from...

    Plot Onderon The Unnamed Tomb

    When he and Max had first met on Nar Shaddaa, Ori was an orphan who had run away from home (not that he actually had one on Baraan-Fa), searching for the Jedi in an attempt to try gain some purpose in life and find some meaning to his existence. While he still wasn't sure if he had found any...

    Ask Routine missions are safe, aren't they?

    "Sounds like a good way to proceed," Ori answered, "Should keep Stredak happy, for now anyway. Enough to buy us some time to find out what's going on." He nodded to Fiach and then returned back inside. The protocol droid and Stredak hadn't moved from where they were, the latter clearly waiting...

    Ask An Elegant Weapon

    After Max's retort, a silence fell over the tomb. The only sound was the hum from their lightsabers. Ori slowed his breathing and eyed his Master intently, trying to be aware of even the sublest movements. As the blade came down toward his left shoulder, Ori pushed his own against it, in an...

    Ask Tick Tock Tick Talk

    "Understandable, they've been through a lot." Ori replied, it was somewhat of an understatement. He followed Thalia into the room and sat down next to her. While Thalia briefed the two Rangers, Ori took a moment to observe them. From the way Jon was handling things, Ori assumed he was the more...
