RaveN

A voice came from the depths of the force to echo in the mind of many, it sang no complex anthem but it reminded the essential.

''Remember, the Force will be with you...always.''

For some the voice sounded familiar, for others it was a simple comfort, but all felt inspired.

¨So much violence...¨

The words were followed by a long sigh.

Neh Raven was still walking through the jungle, thinking, like he did on Tatooine all this time before going to Naboo. He continued to walk carelessly for hours, days...

''I do not wish to fight you, warrior. I wasn't here for you.'' said Raven to the Bounty Hunter a couple meters away from him. ''Your compassion for your Bounty Hunter friend troubles my mind, for you are not totally evil if you care. Take your friend with you, and leave this planet, don't worry about your friend, he will live.''

On those last words, Jedi Master Neh Raven, limped toward the bush where laid the motionless body, and with a fluid move of both of his hands, Lermos Karik's body raised and began to shine with an inner light...

A few moments later, the bounty hunter collapsed to the ground.

Raven released a long sigh of exhaustion. Then the young man disappeared like a shadow between the leaves and the trees.

Lermos Karik was still on the ground, but now a subtle movement began to be visible, on his chest. The slow breathing was soon followed by and heavy cough.

OOC: Alright then...

IC: Raven stayed motion less in the menacing circle, and as the shots drew closer, his concentration grew deeper. And when the first line of projectiles reached his body, his concentration reached a level where such a treat was nothing more than flying energy, energy that could be absorbed and redirected. He was forming a shield around him using the force.

With all this energy absorbed, the Jedi was now faster than he usualy is, but he decided to go for a clever attack, instead of a brutal one. Knowing the hunter's devices would soon shoot for a second time, The Jedi Master quickly jumps over the Bounty Hunter called Lermos in a hope to use him as a human shield against the attacks. As he dives over him, Neh partially and unconsciously avoids a fatal wound, from the sniper. Instead, the bullet cuts through the first layer of the skin of his left calf leaving a flesh wound behind, before finishing its flight on a nearby tree.

Now behind the Sniper, Raven could already see the second wave of blasts coming for his ''shield''. How would a simple bounty hunter be faster than such projectile?

At the astonishing surprise, the sniper who had been hidden where he thought was behind the Jedi, had another surprise. Brutally, the rifle from which came the bullet flew from his hands into the air and started to dance in the air slowly loosing each of its components. And then when the weapon was just a cloud of metalic devices, it fell to the feet of the Jedi Master Raven who was now standing in front of his enemy.

He was dressed in a dark brown uniform with only his cloak missing, for he had to make it fly in the shadows only filled by the power of the force which he controls very well. All this in hope to surprise his enemies, a goal which he accomplished with incredible mastery.

OOC: Don't post my moves, its my responsability to do so. I have my own plan.

Ah well if that's the way you want to play. Okay then.

Bring it on Hunters!

1# How does your character know I want to kill you. He could be there just on a vacation.

2# I think you put a little too much faith in your Bounty Hunters, I am not insulting any of them, its just that my character was the leader of the Jedi before I took my distance from the RP. I don't think they have much chance of killing me.

3# How dare you claim the destruction of the Jedi Temple when you know all too well that it is because of my agreement that the Temple was destroyed. It was for the story, so we could come back and strike back.

4# How do you think your Bounty Hunters are going to find me, no one knows of my presence there. I don't think your gonna pin point my exact location I can't beleive you could roleplay that bad.

Since when can we do that? Sorry I just had to say it

OOC: I thought I told you all to take your time and to bring other Jedi here?

...

And as for all the Sith that may be listening, you DON'T know we are here unless you come with a Jedi. It is an arrangement taken with the Emperor, for the good of the RPG.

IC: Furtively entering the atmosphere of Ilum, the 2 Jedi masters, Gantoris and Raven land in the area designated by Adi-Wan and Sly. Then after a short walk through the rocks, they meet with the 2 pioneers.

"I'm happy to see you here, I will get back to you in a couple hours, we have something to do."

With BLCKCLONE, Raven started to go through the tunnels and with a intensive search they found what would soon become the Jedi Council Chambers and the Meditation rooms.

"Just come with me, I will explain you on route!"

As they step in the ship, the autopilot is engaged and Dark One blasted to Ilum!

------------------

"Alright, Jedi Knights, Pair up with other knights, masters take as many padawans as you can with you, they will learn a lot from this experiance. Gather the jedi you can find, on your way to Ilum, take every precaution you can. And meet me on Ilum, I will be waiting for you, at the coordinates Tinova and Stevensen sent us. These Coordinates are precious, do not loose them or take any risk. We must will not fail. May the Force be with You."

One these words of encouragement Rave begins to head for his ship and arround midway, and turns to the large Wookie who stayed silent since his arrival.

"Master Gantoris, will you accompany me to the new temple? Your assistance would be appreciated, I have an idea."

------------------

With a long sigh filled with thoughts and topped by a bit of hope, Raven pronounces his verdict.

"Be ready to welcome the Jedi. We will be coming, soon."

Raven turns to the other Jedi and pauses with a serious look.

------------------

After a night filled with worries and conversation...filled with memories, good and bad ones. Then the morning came, with the hope news from Ilum would soon come.

------------------

"Who is your master, Young Tisserand."

JediRP Canon History: …to come…

Old description in spoiler:

((Summary compiled by Amidala Skywalker. Thank you!))

"The location you are telling us about might be worth scouting. Go now ahead of us, alot might have, what happened there while you were away, is unknown. Fly over the regions you know, find someplace where we could place our new structures. Bring the information to me, and I hope, to the members of the council..."

As the Padawan learners from Ilum nod, the classic words that are pronounced by the Jedi in moments of doubt slipped out of RaveN's voice.

"And May The Force Be With You."

------------------

"I trust your judgement my friends but, the empire will be looking for us in the populated centers, we should try the best we can to avoid them. If you must to contact an outsider, be sure that we can trust the person. We cannot risk to have our secret revealed."

------------------

After hearing everyone's opinion and concerns, Neh tries to confort the group, but his was still troubled even with the efforts he made to meditate.

"These are dangerous times, I'm affraid all I know about the other Jedi, is nothing but bad news. Now I know you are all alive and out of danger but as for the others...the only news I can give you is that, Jedi Knight Kristal Kebobi was taken by the enemy. And I am affraid the sacrifice of lives to save her would not be worth it, the Emperor seems to want her for a precise purpose... he will be keeping her safe and very well guarded, I will have to wait and see what we can do for her..."

The face of everyone there became even darker than before...clouded by the fear of losing, friends...

Then, turning to the Adi-Wan and Sly, Raven expresses his acknowledgement.

"I will need you too, when we will probing the surface... Your knowledge of the planet may be critical to our survival."

Slowly and furtively, Raven whispers to Stevenson...

"Tuskans are not couragous, he will never try to take on a group like us, he can do us no harm..."

------------------

"You feel his presence? How disturbing, I rescued boy on Coruscant, I think he was one of the junior students. It is strange that he was strong enough for you to sense him...hum..."

Finaly touching the sandy ground of Tatooine, is Dark One. There Raven spent the night, meditating and for the first time in a while, he rested.

Then hours later, 2 round circles appeared in the horizon. The wonderful scene brought back memories to the Jedi Master, memories of his own Master, memories of the moment he received the title of Knight. All those events seemed so far away yet, yet so close in reality.

When Tatoo 1 and 2 reached their climax, Raven decided it was time to go on.

--Opens Comm--

My Friends, Jedi Masters, the hour has come for a new begining. The Temple of coruscant is now lost, but the Republic isn't. There is still hope somewhere. We will regain our former strength, and we will fight for the Republic.

The planet called Ilum, will serve the purpose of Temple and Base of your actions for the upcomming days. We will rebuild there.

The sith will be after us, so that is why the base must stay secret.

Now if you want to follow me into this new begining I will be waiting for you here, in my ship, Dark One.

And may the Force be with you...

OOC: We cannot go and rescue krissi, I am just trying to fight my way out of the atmosphere's planet, and now that no one attacks me, I guess I can go through the blockade!

IC:

Like a fly against against a plane Raven flies through the defences and the attacks almost absent of the Sith Fleet, and with 3 seismic charges places startegicly, one of the Sith's ship, the Deicide. And in a tremendous implosion the hull was breached and the crew killed.

The ship of the Jedi Master continued on its way as the fleet stayed immobile.

OOC: this kill was approved by AP, even if it can be considered as a OHK.

------------------

OOC: I saw lol we're not gonna fight for a Y....or...are we?

JediRP Canon History: Though originally a peaceful and beautiful retreat of the rich and powerful throughout Old Republic history, the planet of Naboo saw continuous skirmishes and destructive fights over the planet after the fall of the Old Republic. The royal palace was destroyed several times by skirmishes led by Barohm Zar and other Sith Lords. Leaving the planet scarred by years of battle. Relative peace fell on the planet as fighting began to shift towards worlds such as Dantooine and the planet recovered from its old wounds. The Monarchy was reestablished and peace reigned until a decade later when the SCORPIONS terrorist group attacked the planet, killed hundreds of civilians, and executed the Royal line live on the holonet. The surviving populace feared a return to the constant war of a few decades before, but the Galactic Alliance intervened and the Alliance reestablished the Monarchy through a cadet branch and helped rebuild the wounded planet. Today the planet exists in peace, ruled by the young queen Memara.

JediRP Canon History:

The Wookiee homeland was something of a pincushion for the Sith and the Empire in its early days. A near-total holocaust was addressed by the work of Mes Tisserand. It was the site of a large attack by the Tyranid bugs, where a large force comprised of both Jedi and Sith (Lord Ar-Pharazon, Tarrian Skywalker, Adi-Wan Tinova, Barohm Zar, Mes Tisserand, Raynuk Montar, Kirlocca) attempted to halt the continuing destruction. Eventually, Barohm Zar gave his life defending the others against the Tyranids.
