With how this character is designed though, it would be interesting to see how she would react in the face of the Republic falling. In her eyes it was the Republic that gave her a second chance after her past as a Criminal, so she's willing to fight for it to keep it alive.
Having it collapse might cause her to just go off the deep end.

The One Sith has been waging a war for an OOC year now to destroy the Republic. They have won every single invasion and yet... the Republic is still there. I think the better question is to ask if the Republic is willing to actually lose for the sake of the story.
"I think the better question is to ask if the Republic is willing to actually lose for the sake of the story."

Actually, I was wondering the same about the One Sith. It doesn't appear that they are willing to lose for the sake of the story or any form of development. Not from the looks of it, anyway. And clearly the Republic has been bested on every front for the better of a year both in writing, OOC and IC objectives and so on.

I wonder what it's like to win at everything all the time, though. I bet it gets boring.
 
If I wanted to win at everything then I would do exactly that, but I don't. I like a curve ball every once in a while. I like to be challenged. I like a surprise. I like change.

If I won everything, especially while writing a character on a community like this, I'd get bored incredibly fast. That's why I find it more interesting that the OS can actually stand to continue winning and keep coming back for more. That's like pool and becoming the champion and for the next 20 years no one beats you. Not once. Never. Why play if you don't have a challenge?

Why read a book when you already know the ending?

Boring waste of time.

The Sith already lost an entire Empire for the sake of the story.

We had the largest and formally longest lasting faction on the entire board, but we still lost and collapsed.

Was in in part that several factions banded together with the sole purpose of taking it down that led to it's inevitable demise?

Probably.

But we rolled with the story and from it was born the One Sith's success.

The One Sith was a very minor faction while the Old Empire was still alive, and when the Old Empire fell the now homeless Sith flocked to it and swelled it's ranks.

All of whom had a grudge against the Republic and Jedi, and thus the rest is history.

I'm sorry, I'm missing the part where I said "the Sith". I'm talking about factions, not character types.

-

I heard it was less "We're going to let this happen" and more "We want to dissolve the Empire and start fresh", which I'm willing to bet had deeper political roots than anyone is willing to admit. In fact, a similar situation seems to be happening with the Galactic Alliance. I wouldn't even be surprised if there were architects within this new faction that were orchestrating this that had a hand int he One Sith Cinderella story, but that's just theory.

Anyway, it's not that big a deal to me. The ONE SITH have lost next to nothing though, which makes your point moot considering I wasn't talking about the Empire's destruction. I was talking about the new and improved Sith faction's rise to fame.

Not like it matters, though. Someone will get tired of all the winning one day and realize how much more fun it is to actually have a challenge. After all, everything burns.
