Ugohr vs the dark side of the Force (and trial OOC thread)

[Ugohr Poof]

Did Ugohr fall to the dark side of the Force?

I know the Alliance has no IC tolerance for dark-siders; if such was the case I may contemplate having him ICly leave the Alliance (and the NJO) while OOCly remaining but only so that I could post additional codex entries to the GAPDP (as a writer I contributed more to it than everyone else combined)... he has already been cast out of the GADF ICly, because of his crimes on Chandrila.

That is a major decision as far as his playability is concerned.

EDIT: Here's the IC thread of his trial

[member="Ugohr Poof"] I'm curious, what happened on Chandrila?

 

[Ugohr Poof]

[member="Arisa Yune"] I can't blame you because you may not have read the dominion of Chandrila. But it's because I can't write worth two beans about hostage crises or, alternatively, his complete IC lack of experience or training in hostage crises. He is primarily a tank commander who appeared to be able to do mine clearance just fine in the past. He blasted open the main door of a building where a hostage crisis was taking place with a round of tank fire.

He blasted open the main door of a building where a hostage crisis was taking place with a round of tank fire.

That's not called "falling to the Dark Side". That's called "fumbling the operation". It's in your service manual soldier.

Don't do it again and have your superior officer chastise you as appropriate. Carry on.

If it's not really force-related, then you won't have changed.

 

[Ugohr Poof]

[member="Jay Scott Clark"] That fumbled operation resulted in noncombatant hostage casualties, hence the criminal status of his actions, despite the hostile casualties. Plus the fallout of fumbled operations did lead some Jedi to go to the dark in canon (e.g. Echuu Shen-Jon) But any attempt at prison escape would have to wait after Omega ends (5 IC years later) unless some parole clause was added in his judgment.

As a dark-sider, however, if he was one, he would be quite different from the psychopathic run-of-the-mill Sith Lords...

So. He's a psychopathic run-of-the-mill Jedi then.

...

Welp.

 

[Ellie Mors]

No. That is not falling to the dark side, that is called reckless behavior and not thinking an action through. Just because your actions caused another to fall does not mean that you, yourself, would.

You're trying to shoehorn a Jedi issue into a military law/engagement issue. Jedi on this board are killing innocents left and right, don't see how this would be any different.

 

[Ugohr Poof]

[member="Judah Dashiell"] And yet the subpoena issued to Ugohr (post #54 in the aforementionned Chandrila dom) made mention of joint Jedi-GADF judicial procedures.

And I suppose that I'm the unlucky one because of all those Jedi slaugthering innocents left and right (to be fair many, if not most instances of such slaughters that I know about, were involuntary), Ugohr is one of the few that actually face consequences for it... Yet, pre-Chandrila, he never otherwise did anything that would have led him to the temptations of the dark (unless some of the real estate threads could count, but none of his crimes were about real estate).

The Jedi Code does not technically forbid Jedi from running corporations, or even owning them. Yet many interpret the no-attachment rule as precluding corporate ownership by Jedi.

Its your character dude. You decided.

Traditionally what realy defines you is the side you choose to draw from. A dark sider uses pain, fear, anger, etc.

A Jedi draws strength from the opposite. Staying centered, staying serene etc.

Pretty much this.

 

[Ugohr Poof]

All right, he's still a light-sider...
