Escape from Purgatory •[Thread Planning/OOC Discussion]•

Awesome! I read part of the book. It's pretty crazy. I wonder what Disney will do with it. I hope not a cliche zombie Star Wars movie, haha!

 

[Aerin Kath]

[member="Jaster Starfallen"]

I believe it is only canon thanks to some starwars mobile game. so make of it what you will.

Well I want my character to fall to the dark sode eventually...this seems like the perfect platform to trigger his fall.

[member="Joran Del-Finn"]
Damn son, put that sass away.

 

[Jansal Corego]

Zombies aren't canon, even before Disney bought the property; it was more of an alternate-Universe sort of deal, I believe. Mobile games aren't canon either.

However, there are Rakghouls, which behave like zombies, only in a more Star Wars-y way; you could check that out. This should click to any other KOTOR fan.

Also, recap coming soon; get yer game faces on.

 

[Dax Perl]

How soon do we think we'll be able to start RPing?

 

[Jansal Corego]

[member="Dax Fyre"]

We're almost done with writing out the plot for the prologue - all we have to do now is submit the tech. I say it'll definitely be next week sometime, hopefully Sunday or Monday.

@everyone

Also expect recap in a few hours - a bit too busy to write it up right now.

 

[Dax Perl]

Just a heads up I'm going to be on a plane home for most of Sunday so...first post is going to someone else...and maybe even the second and third haha.

 

[Silas Miu]

Yeah, I always really enjoyed the part with the Rakghouls.... Damnit, [member="Jansal Corego"]. Now i wanna play that game again.

Going to flesh out the Company submission thing a bit more before posting it. Also, I think, as far as the Tech submission thread goes for the sublimation grenade, we should prepare everything now, but the actual tech submission won't happen until after the company has been formed and we've been able to get a dev thread going for the grenade specifically. So everything mentioned in the PM is simply speculation and preparation at the moment.

 

[Silas Miu]

Kessel Prison Planet. The Purgatory could've been on the way here to drop off prisoners when it was hijacked by the antagonist and brought about to the new planet for his own uses. Just a random thought I had as I researched potential planet candidates for our company headquarters.

 

[Jaster Starfallen]

I like it. Or maybe the planet had a deal with the antagonist.

Hey, everyone! So, finally, at long last, it seems we're coming close to wrapping up planning for the first thread! Yay! Great work with that and, eventually, tech subs will roll in, get approved, blah blah blah, and we can begin! Everyone here has contributed immensely (and those who haven't have been excluded from the tag), and I thank you all for it; it'd have been impossible to make this happen without you. So, let's get down for a daily recap!

Also, welcome to [member="Sedge"], who has decided to join us!

RECAP:

So, everyone here knows their jobs, however, if you'd like to contribute more, the following teams are being built:

The Protagonist Workshop - Here we'll be developing subs more intricately, as well as funding our future Resistance. As of now, it is all purely theoretical; however, we expect to finish a company sub and get everything prepared or the future.
• [member="Silas Miu"]
• [member="Singularity"]
• [member="Jaster Starfallen"]
The Antagonist Workshop - Similar to its counterpart, this workshop is used by the antagonists to create the necessary submissions; the first of which happens to be the Purgatory, which is currently underway. In addition, there remains plenty of NPC writing to be done; we could always use more help from those currently not hammered down to other duties.
• [member="Kevros Kovani"]
World-building/Dungeon-mastering - Here, we'll be developing more intricate plot notes, organizing the RP, and directing he thread; also, we'll be responsible for the codex submissions pertaining to the environment.
• [member="Joran Del-Finn"]
• @Myself

So as previously discussed, we'll be aboard a prison vessel; rather than it being hijacked, however, as Silas suggested, I personally believe we'd be better off making it the antagonist's to begin with - to so much out of laziness, but to lessen the research workload that'll be put into the workshops. It would counteract and erase the previous understanding that we would all be there for one reason or another and, if it was legitimate prison ship, then everyone might end up strong-armed into either having their character commit a crime or serve aboard it; both of which might contradict previously established character traits. Regardless, we begin on a prison ship, some of us inmates, others employees, before a prison riot causes the ship to crash into the destination: the planet of Nocrassol, a dangerous, arid wasteland which plays host to a game - one run by a mysterious entity in order to further finance and test the usage of experimental drugs used to enhance combat performance.

Forced to compete by their rules, while being broadcasted to an audience of high-ranking criminals, generals, and other powerful entities, we'll have to survive in the wilderness - hunted by bands of NPC attackers, walking through harsh terrain (fire swamp, woooooh), fighting against the wildlife. In addition, each of you will be given the option to create a NPC sponser who will provide equipment to you to help better your chances of survival. Together, banded against the wilderness, we will ultimately spark a resistance against these games; but that will be in the future, as for now we best focus on getting the first thread out of the gate. Doing so means completing the world-building, finishing the prison ship, let the graphical art team wrap up a few pretty pictures for us, and so forth. This means the primarily responsibility falls upon the Antagonist Workshop and World-building crew, which happen to be the smallest of the three - any spare help we can get would be greater appreciated.

Finally, post order has been concluded; make a note of this, though it will be repeated for the thread - it will be in this order we'll cycle through posts, to avoid confusion. People who have failed to contribute at all to planning have been excluded and, unless they contact me personally, they will not be invited further; it's not fair everyone is working so hard to see this come through, and they intend to simply ride out our effort.

Post Order:

1. [member="The Herald"]
2. [member="Kevros Kovani"] (A reward for his hard work, which has completed entirely on his own after volunteering for it.)
3. [member="Dax Fyre"]
4. [member="Nicair Claden"]
5. [member="Joran Del-Finn"]
6. [member="Silas Miu"]
7. [member="Aerin The Lost"]
8. [member="Jaster Starfallen"]
9. [member="Singularity"]
10. [member="Jakkor Kess"]
11. [member="Sedge"]
12. @Myself (If I choose to participate with a character)

We only got a small way's left to push before we're ready to begin, so let's break it into double-time and get this done! I've purposely excluded all other conversation pertaining to future threads, we bet fixated on this first one now and push it out the gate; I'd hate to test your guys's patience for too long - if we focus, we'll be ready in a day or so.

RECAP OVER

 

[Dax Perl]

Onward to certain death and destruction!

 

[Nicair Claden]

Best wishes go out to the workshops doing something I've got no idea how to do, you guys the real MVP.

 

[Dax Perl]

I imagine when the ship crashes the characters will get the coice of running or searching the wreckage for supplies?

 

[Joran Del-Finn]

[member="Jansal Corego"]

there are somethings that don't exactly track with me logistically but I think I'm either missing the point or over thinking it.

 

[Cathul Thuku]

I know it doesn't make any sense, storytelling-wise, for me to go first in the posting order.

 

[Joran Del-Finn]

[member="Cathul Thuku"]

Don't worry, Love. I will find a spot for you.

 

[Silas Miu]

[member="Joran Del-Finn"] Your signature makes it look like you're -making- a spot for her. XD

 

[Joran Del-Finn]

[member="Silas Miu"]

Let's just hope it isn't your spot.

 

[Silas Miu]

Pretty sure it isn't.
