1. What is going to happen in your plot?
Two wayward Exiles will journey through the galaxy, as well as the criminal underworld, in search for some ancient text stolen from an Exile temple.

2. What other players will be a part of this?
Myself and @LeavingOrbit (and an unnamed bounty hunter)

3. Where are all the places (if more than one) that your plot will be taking place?
From Prakith, to deep space, to Nar Shaddaa, the plot will vary by location.

4. Please provide a basic in-character timeline of what you expect to happen.
There will be five (5) threads each themed over the search for some ancient text:
  • (1) Both Leviticus and Siris search through an abandoned Exile sanctuary. There, they fight a massive creature driven insane by the dark side. To their surprise, however, they realize the relic they have searched for is just an ordinary datacron.
  • (2) The pair find themselves a slicer and uncover the information within the datacron. From there, they examine clues and where the ancient text may have gone. After a brief discussion and a run-in with pirates looking to cover up their trail, the two embark on their journey.
  • (3) Both Exiles begin their hunt for the ancient text. Yet again, they encounter another stranger looking to stop them. A bounty hunter, they prove to be a far greater challenge then either man initially expected. However, they prevail— or cut a deal.
  • (4) They reach Nar Shaddaa, and with the last set of clues, they confront a collector who had bought off the artifact. There, they fight with their security, rout the collector, and take the artifact from them.
  • (5) Together, the two men inspect the ancient text and reveal the knowledge within. They discover an ability known as force rage, and try to use it, either against each other or on pirates.

5. What do you or your character hope to achieve with this plot? What is the "end-game"?
Both men discover the knowledge within the ancient text and learn the "force rage" technique. Of course, both characters should be Level 2 by the time this occurs. If not, the last thread will be delayed until each character reaches the appropriate level.

6. Do you need any involvement of canon NPCs or faction leaders to be DMed by a staff member? If so, please detail who/what and for what purpose.
We would probably require someone to DM the security and the collector in Thread (4).


To note: the first thread was recently completed. I hope it's not considered too short, and if so, I can compensate in later threads. Thanks!

@Deviant (love you), everything looks good except for one thing. Darkside Holocrons are supposed to be super duper rare and incredibly dangerous. The plot Painus posted is a good outline for what should be required to get a Darkside holocron (12 threads and a good chance of PC death).

I think this can be easily fixed by just changing it from a holocron to a like an ancient text of some sort. It should accomplish the same goal. As far as the first thread goes, I've been using 15 really quality posts as a bench mark for evaluation so looks good to me!

Alright! Yeah, sorry about that. My partner seemed really intent on getting a holocron in the first thread, but I'm sure he won't mind if I switch it around in favor for some ancient text. It all comes down to the same result, anyway.

Edited.
