Carrying the Fire
Prompt 1 — Observing That Imperial Backside — OPEN Self-DM
Participants: Kane Seros & Aranmir
The Empire's force is substantial and they move with the precision of a well oiled war machine. If we expect to put up any semblance of a fight we need to slow them down. We're sending you to scout out the Empire's back line, we need info on their supply lines or anything that could lead to a potential advantage. If you see a chance to do some damage, do it. If possible keep casualties to a minimum, but make no mistake... we are at War.
Be safe, and may the Force be with you.
Prompt 2 — (Thread Title) — OPEN Self-DM — Participants: Bri Lanaamer (room for 1)
A black market parts dealer on Dantooine claims to have a significant piece of tech that could prove to be invaluable to the defense effort. Yes. There's a high probability that this is a trap, but if we aren't willing to turn every stone right now, we'll be buried by our missed opportunities. Attached to this message are the coordinates for the meeting spot. I ran the numbers. It's a scrap yard on Dantooine. I recommend getting there early and building your exit first. Don't take any chances on this.
Be vigilant, be efficient, and get back safe.
Prompt 3 — Once Bitten, Twice Shy, Thrice Convinced — ASK Self-DM
Participants: Myrell’anay & Alienor Pom Blodau
We've caught wind of a conclave happening within our system. It's a gathering of leaders. They're scared. They want to believe in us but they don't exactly have a lot to go on. That's where you come in. Our presence at this meeting will be unexpected, use that surprise to sway our allies back to our side. We can't show weakness in the face of the Empire and we sure as hell can't win this fight alone. Make sure they know that. If there was ever a time to pontificate, here's your chance.
Speak boldly, but with wisdom, and may the Force be with you.

The concept of "Carrying the Fire" was popularized by Cormack McCarthy's novel: The Road. There's plenty of near theological debate on the idea's true meaning, but many recognize the "Fire" to correlate directly to the concept of "Hope" while the action of "carrying" that "fire" was the sacrifice, those strong enough, made to ensure "Hope's" survival...
The Galaxy is once again broiling in conflict. The Jedi have been called upon, and they will answer. While the council refuses to answer for their complacency, the next generation has seen fit to bear the burden of The Galaxy's Peacekeepers and they couldn't have picked a better time to do so.
This pack is meant to organize the war effort within Jedi Space. The Empire was here and their practically unopposed campaign won't loiter long. Our allies are in danger and it's time to carry the fire. Leon Baudelaire is looking for a handful of Jedi with the hearts of a Firebrand. It was time to remind the galaxy just how bright the Light could burn.
Each of these prompts should be considered the mission briefing your character's received directly from Leon.
