Attack on Malif Cove! (OOC) (Sith Assassins versus Jedi Shadows)

The second law of thermodynamics is that the state of entropy in an isolated system (i.e; the universe) will always increase over time, and will never decrease.

So I have no idea what this means here.

I always knew the second law to mean that when there are two isolated thermodynamic forces in space, and they are introduced to one another, the natural process would dictate that the cooler force would absorb heat energy and the hotter source would exude it until they both found thermodynamic equilibrium within each other. Though, the total sum of energy between them, would not have been altered.

"When two initially isolated systems in separate but nearby regions of space, each in thermodynamic equilibrium with itself but not necessarily with each other, are then allowed to interact, they will eventually reach a mutual thermodynamic equilibrium. The sum of the entropies of the initially isolated systems is less than or equal to the total entropy of the final combination. Equality occurs just when the two original systems have all their respective intensive variables (temperature, pressure) equal; then the final system also has the same values."

The second law of thermodynamics was in reference to the total entropy of an isolated system, whether it be your body, the planet, galaxy, or universe. It is most often used when referring to the galaxy or the universe at large because the closer the energy of the universe moves towards entropy the less life is capable of being sustained in the universe, and is also made reference to when discussing the biosphere of the planet Earth because of the same issue. Even as life dies off, the entropy will still continue to increase and so it is a very real issue.

Can you stop with the science? I'm not at school now you know.

May I join this? As I am a member of the Jedi Shadows. Been looking for an excuse to get this alt back into the swing.

Go for it!

Go for it! Just check in with [member="Kian Karr"] and see where he might need ya.

With those lenses? As they are scanners, i would suppose they could not scan something they could not detect. Most sensors for example thermal imaging sensors still use light in order to see, so, naturally, something which bends light, would bend what the sensors use to pick up your heat signature. If it was any type of laser imaging or scanning it would be the same way, as a laser is light if you moved the laser, it wouldn't see you, and most scanners are laser scanners ... so I'm just asking if they require light to see on any level, no matter how minimal. Or is it more like a radar / a 3D imaging grid which is a constant feed of all heat in an area not using sight at all? (which would entail that they would still work in an absolute void.)

Cos your app is kinda vague on it.

Well, i quoted second law at you, so, i don't see how there is room for disagreement, the most i could assume would be that the second law also encompasses other things. ~

What is this in reference to?

The Thermal lenses I subbed a bit ago

[member="Iziz Vei"]

Force cloak and other techniques only affect the visible part of the light spectrum, not infrared or other parts of the light spectrum, as far as has been shown in canon I do believe, but in the sub I do say they don't rely on light waves to detect something

 

[Ellie Mors]

It actually acts on all parts of the light spectrum, thus defeating hutts and other species that see through the ultraviolet spectrum (or robotic eyes, for example), which encompasses infrared light, but thermal sensors, unless specified to use infrared light, do not operate on light at all for locating thermal signatures. While they certainly would be incapable of creating an image of the target like an HUD would through light and biometrics, it would certainly detect the temperature of a human body. Though obviously there are ways to cloud this through the force, as well - or even more practical methods that most criminals use in the real world when evading police detection (whom use advanced thermal sensors that create a "thermal map" to locate "warm bodies" on the ground over forests.)

Thanks, just making sure <3

You may or may not want to reconsider your starting post as Corvus and Varus are still at the rear, Varus actually stating he's standing at the entrance to make sure everyone else goes inside first, so might be a little hard to sneak past him or Corvus who is using Force Sight

 

[FN-2446]

Oh, I'll edit the post. Thanks for info! [member="Taeli Raaf"]

 

[Corvus Raaf]

OK, I got slightly lost over the week-end. If anyone is up for a duel, please let me know and we'll see what we can do

So quick question about your attack on me, and a little clarification hopefully

Exactly how powerful is that single blast of Force Lightning?

 

[Iziz]

it's pretty strong. considering he sat there for three posts pretty much doing nothing but charging lightning.

strong enough that he has full thickness burns on his own hands and lesser burns peppered across his body for even trying to use a bolt of lightning that strong.

So i imagine it could really ruin someone's day.

It wouldn't be lethal, it might break/crack a few bones where it hits, throw you and leave some nasty burns.

Hope this helps. <3

 

[Elijah Black]

I'm a little bit confused as to what's going on, and where everybody is. If anyone wanna help clarify things, that'd be appreciated!

I take it we're out of the tunnels, and now in the halls of the base? Did the main group (not Kian and Taeli) get engaged, or are we pretty much free and roam the halls until we find an opponent?

We're supposed to be away from the two infiltrating - fighting the majority of the OS - whilst Ferus and a couple of others attack Kian and Taeli. But it didn't quite work out that way.

On the plus side, Corvus is about to start a barbecue if anyone's interested. The smell alone might attract some company?

 

[Elijah Black]

Ah, I see. Thanks!

Would it be selfish of me to run off and duel [member=Saiah]? Or should we stick together?

That's not exactly how Force Lightning works, the more powerful variants actually are the chain effect variant and Force Lightning has never actually had enough force to break bones. Throw someone back onto the ground, sure, but nowhere did it ever break bones. But um the major issue I had with it was its essentially an autohit as you're sending it flying at 300,000 m/s, something not even Palpatine could do on his best day, and there is no way possible way for Taeli to try and counter.
