No matter which alignment you decide to go with, whether it be dark or light (or even neutral), or even good or evil (and again neutral), there will be someone there to help you and your character grow and expand in both skills and knowledge. If you wish to be a Sith, you simply need to request a Sith master and one will be there for you, or a Jedi if you wish to be such. We also have neutral force groups, such as the Order of the Grey, which will likely be a bit trickier if only because the force is a very polarizing thing. If you wish to see an example of a role-playing thread to get the general idea of how it usually goes on this board,
here's a thread I am currently involved in that you can feel free to read. Usually a writer writes a character (with a submitted bio sheet, as I mentioned in my first post) in one of the three point of views (first, second or third: I, You, or He/She/[Insert name here]) in any form of tense (usually past tense, though some people use present, and fewer still there are those who write out how they plan to act, future tense, but that is generally harder to write without seeming like either a God-modder or Meta-gamer). Whatever the objective of the character usually depends on the thread, or the whim of the writer writing the character, so you don't really
need to make every thread about being a Sith, Jedi, Bounty Hunter, etc. I've done plenty of threads where I'm simply enjoying myself at a cantina or strolling through a terminal. The only thing you cannot do is crossover different franchises with Star Wars stuff without using the Fanon/Non-Canon tag.
