Sky Trenches.

Do we have them, if so where can I see them? If not, can I do a write-up profile and shoot it your way?

Being a complete Doctor Who noob, and not having a clue what the hell they are, you're welcome to write something up, and PM it to me... but don't expect it to make the cut. I don't think we need anymore defenses.

Where do you think the Star Trenches name came from? :happy:

EDIT: Also the Corona-K's listed as a freighter, and the description for the Bootana's cut off.

(Alright so this was something that I thought would be a neat little thing for the Cartel. It obviously can be tweaked to accommodate whatever, but I thought I would post my ideas.)


The Resurgence of the Great Hunt
The Great Hunt was an ancient tradition that was started by the Mandalorians during the time of the Old Republic. It was eventually opened up to any suitable hunter that was willing to risk their life for the honor to participate in and quickly the galaxy learned and respected the tradition. After a continuing series of galactic wars the Great Hunt fell from tradition and knowledge of the galaxy for thousands of years..

The tradition was once found again within the depths of a once lost Hutt Palace-that was found by a Hutt Expedition team-on Nar Kreeta. It was quickly brought back to the confines of Nal Hutta where it was presented to the leaders of the Cartel; who saw the potential for profits, fame and grandeur for their estates. With the most influential hutt’s aboard for the plan, the tournament’s funding was quickly gathered and announcements began to ring out across the galaxy.

Currently, Bounty Hunters, Mercenaries, and Freelancers of all walks of life and fortune are arriving to Hutt Space for the chance to compete for a Hutt’s sponsorship that would help them qualify for the Entrance Round of the Great Hunt!

(The Rest of this all OOC:) )

What is the Great Hunt?
The Great Hunt is a Hutt Cartel Only Event that will span across the galaxy as hunters compete to hunt down special Great Hunt Bounties to the needs and specifications required in the contract. Most Hunters either died or failed during these contracts. But, if a good number of hunters made it back-the first ones that were completed their contracts would move on.


How will the Great Hunt work:


So I’m not entirely sure on how we would do this but these are my thoughts:

Announcement:
The Hutt’s announce that the great hunt and people can write up where they heard the call.

Sponsorship:
This may take sometime here, but the general idea is that players arrive to hutt space and compete for the sponsorship of the hutt. These can be NPC hutt’s or PC’s. The more powerful hutt’s sponsorship competition will be a lot harder than a small time hutt, but the benefits are that a more powerful hutt can offer more assets to a player at the start of every round.

Qualifying Round:
After all of the hutt’s that are participating have found a suitable candidate there will begin a qualifying PVP fight between a series of hunters until there are 32 left. (Though I’m not sure if there will be that many PC’s. So I was thinking that if there aren’t enough players we would basically describe that all the the Players would have made it through this deadly battle.)

The Four Rounds:
So basically these are where the players will compete and do the specified bounties permitted to them. Every player that is in the tournament will have their own bounty and they will write up a one post thread about that bounty. These bounty threads must be completed by a specified day (most likely two weeks after put up, can be changed though). The Admins will then grade based on QUALITY of the thread and the winners will move on.

It’ll go:
1st Round: 32 competitors (Though Not sure we’re going to have enough numbers-so if we get a semi-large number we will stop at an even number.)
2nd: 16 (or the half equivalent of whatever number of players we have.)
3rd Round: 8 (or the half equivalent of whatever number of players we have.)
4th (Final Round): 2 players competing for the last contract-only one person can come back alive.

The idea is that the contracts will get harder every round and the judging will become harder. Now the last round is where the last two remaining competitors will fight to compete for a VERY HIGH RISK contract (Thinking a high member Sith/Jedi, etc.) only one person can come back alive to claim the contract. (This would be heavily monitored by the Admins to make sure that everything is fair.)

The Winner would be able to give their character the title, “Champion of the First Great Hunt”. They would also gain a huge reputation, tons of credits, and whatever the admins deem appropriate.

(Tell me what you guys think of this :) )

Off the bat: I love it. Logistics we can talk later, as I just got home from work and my eyes are barely awake to read this, but this all sounds fantastic. We can even incorporate PC characters for targets if even just for the final round.

Great idea.

Thanks, I know it was a bit badly written, but I was at work when I wrote it :)

I've been working a mission pack based around the planet and species I created for the last couple months. Now that everything has been approved I'm moving forward and trying to get the missions setup. I have an interest check [thread=60909]here[/thread] that goes into detail regarding the missions and some people have already shown an interest.

I understand that these missions would require more than just one faction leader's approval. Any questions and/or thoughts can be brought to me via PM, VM, or on the designated thread. I still need to work out some finer details, but I don't want to go to overboard just yet.​

I would be interested in signing up for the great hunt event! Draedan, I'd be interested in some new missions always.

I think the Great Hunt event already finished... Although possibly bringing it back could be an interesting turn of events...
And those new mission packs look mighty interesting!!! Sadly I don't think that Arok would be present for any of the Hutt ones since he isn't a Bounty Hunter...

Hey guys, I just wanted to remind you guys if you have any complaints, concerns, ideas, submissions or general questions about the Cartel feel free to PM me or any of the faction staff (though I'm your best bet, if I'm active) and I'll try to get it squared away as soon as possible. Or post it here and maybe have people add into it, or answer it for you if the staff can't get to it right-away. Better awareness here. Only mentioning it because some people have come to me recently not knowing if they could or not. Keeping it all bottled up inside helps nobody, so help us help you!

Oh, also, I want to use as a platform to say: I love you all.

Has the council idea been considered (see page one)?

Also, could the FL's take a took at the reason behind there being a human in charge of a Hutt family? I heard that it was possibly going to happen, but was told that there would be a good reason for it - as it's never happened in all the history of the hutts - and was wondering what this reasoning was?

We're implementing our own system. TBH I didn't even look at page 1, but we have our own system that'll be placed soon, don't want to reveal too much on that right now as it's part of the surprise.

As for a human leading a Hutt Clan, he's just not any human, he's Mr. Jack Tamblyn. And the Hutt Clan (Kormtha) itself isn't too happy about it either - but we'll be exploring that through as the story goes on, once our changes go through. But yeah, Jack's helped out the Cartel tremendously, enough to warrant his overlooking, but this will also bring in some other aspects to the Cartel's storyline, for sure. No worries about it Nor'baal. Thanks for the questions. I know they aren't very clear answers, but in due time (hopefully) we'll have everything crystal clear.

Brilliant! Thanks!
I would be interested in following how the hutts react to a non-slug leading them.

Well somewhere along the line the Cartel or one of the main Hutt families could acquire the loyalty of an assassin group.
