Just an FYI I can, in fact, see the results currently

Weird. Tinkering...

Edit: Removed that rule, I misunderstood the option. It simply stops from seeing who voted for what.

 

[Darth Strosius]

IC, if your character were a gamer what sorts of games would they be into? FPS? Strategy? Maybe some good old fashioned roleplaying or even LARPing?

 

[Amani Serys]

What's your favorite 'what if' moment for your character? An impactful event or major choice in their story that, if it had gone differently, would have changed the trajectory of their development. How do you imagine things might have gone if that was the case?

 

[Revna]

If you could change one thing about your character's arc or story, what would it be?

 

[Corazona von Ascania]

Gimmie your most embarrassing rp moment. Doesn’t have to be with the nominated character or on chaos - just rp in general.

 

[Kyric]

If you could meet one figure from galactic history, who would it be?

Bonus question because the first one sucked: What is your favorite flavor of milkshake?

 

[Darth Malum of House Marr]

Darth Marr.

Chocolate.

 

[Alicia Drey]

Who would you have picked for 'Character of the Month' if you had the choice?

 

[Inanna Harth]

Beans or rice?

What, in your opinion, is the worst sequel of all time?

 

[Darth Malum of House Marr]

IC, if your character were a gamer what sorts of games would they be into? FPS? Strategy? Maybe some good old fashioned roleplaying or even LARPing?

Grand Strategy, 4X, followed by RPGs.

What's your favorite 'what if' moment for your character? An impactful event or major choice in their story that, if it had gone differently, would have changed the trajectory of their development. How do you imagine things might have gone if that was the case?

So this was something that was entirely out of my control, however, if the Ouroboros Crisis (A Sith Order civil war that led to Malum and Darth Strosius , killing their master, Darth Ophidia ), had never happened, Malum likely would still be loyally following his master with the plan to crown her as Sith Empress. He would not be in the high position he currently has within the Sith Order, and perhaps more poignantly, he would not have a fragment of Darth Ophidia slowly making him insane/slowly merging into his psyche.

If you could change one thing about your character's arc or story, what would it be?

I wish I had more opportunity to write specifically apprentice/acolyte stuff, I feel like to some degree I missed the traditional apprentice/master relationship and all the learning that came with it (shown on screen, obviously happened off-camera), but such happens when you take an unplanned LOA due to writing in too many threads lol.

Gimmie your most embarrassing rp moment. Doesn’t have to be with the nominated character or on chaos - just rp in general.

This one made me think really hard lol.

Probably when Malum got siren called by Ishani Dinn and then almost had his life force stolen out of him.

Who would you have picked for 'Character of the Month' if you had the choice?

Darth Empyrean and/or Darth Strosius

Beans or rice?

What, in your opinion, is the worst sequel of all time?

Rice.

The Last Jedi.

 

[Kitter Bitters]

How did you choose your characters name?

 

[Brandyn Sal-Soren]

Darth Malum of House Marr - We all know you will win, but maybe wait till it is official before you answer the questions. XD

 

[Ishani Dinn]

Seeing as it was one of the few times this character was permitted to shine, thank you for your sacrifice lmao

Oh lmaoooo, I'm dumb, I thought this was for all nominees to answer questions, I'll ask for the stuff to be deleted, fully misunderstood, my bad.

Poorly explained on my behalf. Leave your posts up as a testament to my folly.

 

[Dante Iblis]

In the cruel balance of fate and destiny, is there such a thing as free will when the yoke of the Force unerringly directs all beings with its invisible hand?

 

[WelshPsych]

What do you think makes for a fun/interesting thread?

 

[Briana Sal-Soren]

What was your favorite thread that you participated in and why?
