Well Hello

We tend to keep in touch through Skype chats based around the Factions, so there's one for the Sith, the Republic, etc etc. As for the rest, most species are available as stated above. You can only RP sentients/droids, I believe.

 

[Fabula Caromed]

False You can not be a Rakatan or a Pure sith I believe. other than that your up to be any Sentient being.

Why do people keep saying this? Who is telling people this? They're wrong.

The only species that is forbidden is Celestial. Rakatan and "pure Sith" are available. People, stop saying they're not allowed.

 

[Vora Kaar]

I thought rakatan were not allowed? Sorry fabs. Looks like I was wrong. Sorry about that.

 

[Fabula Caromed]

Rakatan tech is disallowed. The only species that are forbidden are "god" species and anything that's legitimately or functionally immortal. The reason we don't see a lot of Rakatans running around is because it takes a lot of backstory justification to play one. Same with a pureblood Sith.

I didn't mean to snap, darlin'. This is just not the first time someone has made that exact claim. In fact, it's not even in the first dozen times. If you want a Rakatan, play a Rakatan. Just make sure you have a reasonable backstory that explains why you've got a primitive, Force-blind, planetbound creature out wandering the stars.

Oh sorry.

Are there any restrictions for miralukans for example since they see through the force, does that require some kind of training of powers and such or can i do whatever i like (within the forums rules, of course).

 

[Fabula Caromed]

We have plenty of Miraluka and (especially) Miraluka-blooded characters running around. Have a blast.

I knew this that was easy to understand. I just thought that Rakatan went with it as some people may make a character then try to create their weapons so fit with their character. I just assumed that it was also prohibited.

Don't worry sexy-butt I know you weren't snapping at me. because I'm snapping at you.
Oh no you didant! *snap snap*

 

[Grahim]

and for the deeper background for purblood sith and rakatans. Is it ju st to write a credible story to why one of those species would be up and about after being declared extinct or planetbound in the case of rakatans?

 

[Vora Kaar]

@[member="Grahim"] yes you are correct. You have to give a story that can be reasonable why that one would still be living.

 

[Grahim]

But that is ridiculously hard since this is like 840 ABY and last a member of the sith species was seen was like 1500-1400 BBY and rakatans like 2000 BBY

 

[Vora Kaar]

Cryostasis? lost in space? Some how lived in a black hole? A really old person. its all in the imagination.

 

[Fabula Caromed]

Hence the reason why they're rare, even on this site. It's hard to come up with a good, logical reason that they should be running around. They're not forbidden. They're just unofficially limited by difficulty. We do have quite a few genetic Sith running around, though.

 

[Grahim]

Well then thanks for the information ^^

 

[Vora Kaar]

No problem. It can even be a lab where people are trying to re create the race and what not. and so your character is in a sense a Test tube baby. @[member="Grahim"]
