Not long ago, the Empire was destroyed. Thanks to the efforts of the Rebel Alliance, a new Republic rose from the ashes of corruption and tyranny. A new Senate was established, and there was peace between worlds. It was a time to rebuild and forget about the pain of the past. Luke Skywalker, the last Jedi master, established a new Jedi Order and traveled across the galaxy, seeking out Force sensitive people to train in the ways of the Force. Though the old ways were largely lost to the past, save for some old holocrons and knowledge passed by word of mouth, Luke managed to build a good foundation on which the new Order could stand.
Years passed, and as the New Order grew, so did a new threat to the galaxy's hard won peace. Some were not willing to let the Empire disappear forever, and the First Order was founded with one goal in mind: destroy the Republic and take back what the Empire could not keep. The Resistance was quick to arise after the First Order made itself known, for they knew what would happen if this new threat was allowed to gain strength.
And gain strength they did. They were the first to strike, and they hit hard. Luke's Order was decimated by a group of dark Jedi, and the Padawans were scattered while Luke himself disappeared. Now the few remaining Padawans are struggling to come back together. They have all agreed to find the Resistance and meet there. Meanwhile, the First Order continues to hunt for any remaining Jedi that may stand in their way...

Rules
1. Tess's rules obviously.
2. No one-liners. I'd prefer at least a paragraph per post, but as long as you're not making tiny posts that no one can reply to, I won't be a tyrant about it.
3. This RP IS based off the new Star Wars movie, and while it doesn't really follow the plot, there may be spoilers so join at your own risk.
4. You may make canon characters but this RP is going to be mostly OC based.
5. Since the New Order is not nearly as strong as the old Order due to the fact that many of their traditions were lost to time, keep in mind that any Jedi characters you make will likely be inexperienced. Just use your judgement.
6. LOCW_Bluestarwarrior is my co-creator, so listen to them.

______________________________
My Characters
Britta Twi
Nicknames: Bri
Age: 19
Gender: Female
Species: Zabrak
Allegiance: New Jedi Order
Rank: Padawan
____________________
Appearance: Britta wears robes much like traditional Jedi robes though she has personalized them a bit, most noticeably with an armored shoulder guard on her left shoulder. Like all Zabraks she has vestigial horns on her head and facial tattoos. She has black hair and orange eyes.
Equipment: Her most important piece of equipment is her lightsaber, a yellow-bladed weapon with a strong, clear blade very much like those of the old Order (though it tends to go fuzzy when struck against other lightsabers or lightsaber proof material due to the synthetic crystal) which she built with Master Skywalker's help. Her shoulder guard can resist blaster fire and light lightsaber strikes.
Skills: Britta know some basic self-defense, but her true strength lies in her use of the Force.
Weaknesses: Britta is not as good at hand-to-hand combat at others of her species, despite her training as a child. Lightsaber combat is something she can do, but it's not her forte, and she prefers to use the Force to get out of potentially violent situations before they occur.
Special Abilities: She hasn't completely mastered any particular moves with the Force, but her specialty is using the Force to deaden or block out pain and exhaustion in her body. This coupled with her species's natural pain resistance gives her incredible endurance as long as she is able to concentrate.
____________________
Personality: Britta is a very centered individual, and she seems very at peace with the universe. She's a motherly type who makes friends easily and is very protective. Under this calm exterior, however, lies a lot of self-doubt and anxiety. She's afraid that she'll never live up to the expectations placed upon her, and she is often eager to prove her competence which can lead to her taking unnecessary risks to get a job done.
Home Planet: Iridonia
History: Britta grew up on her home planet, Iridonia, in a village where to survive one had to be very tough. Britta was a hard worker and very intelligent, but as a fighter she seemed hopeless. One day when she was around 14, she and some other children out scavenging were ambushed by wild animals. The encounter awakened something in Britta, and she used the Force to push the animals away so that she and the others could escape. Word of what happened spread through the village, and when Luke Skywalker passed through on his search for Force sensitives, it didn't take him long to find Britta. Britta trained with the others under his guidance for five years before the attack on the Order came. An older member, a man who used to be a bounty hunter, tried to help her and some other teenagers escape. He was killed in the attack, unfortunately. Britta herself managed to escape major injury.

Misc. Info:
Cliff Lindkear
Nicknames: Just Cliff
Age: 20
Gender: Male
Species: Human
Allegiance: Resistance
Rank: Bomber Pilot
____________________
Appearance: Cliff has tan skin and brown hair which he likes to keep long and up in a ponytail. He has a piercing in one ear. His eyes are brown. He wears a carved pendant from his home world which looks like a stylized jungle plant.
Equipment: Cliff carries a blaster with him, as most rebel do
Skills: Cliff is an excellent pilot, though his specialty lies in larger ships rather than small fighters. He's also a decent shot with a pistol.
Weaknesses: Cliff can pilot fighters, but he's not as good at it as others. Fighters have touchier controls, and having to do quick maneuvers rather than smooth bombing runs isn't his area of expertise.
Special Abilities: None
____________________
Personality: Cliff has a strong moral compass. He's also stubborn and daring. He's no stranger to taking risks. He's level-headed, precise, and can keep calm in tough situations. He's always been adventurous and enjoys outdoor activities such as hiking when he gets a moment of rest, though one never really knows when disaster will strike.
Home Planet: Onderon
History: Cliff grew up in the shadow of the Empire and the First Order. Though he was born years after the Empire's fall, his home planet had made no secret their alliance with the Empire, an unfortunate consequence of Onderon's conquering by the Republic during the days of the Clone Wars. Cliff grew up on a world whose economy was destroyed by war and whose people were torn apart by differing ideologies. Finally he decided he'd had enough of it. He was tired of watching the world fall apart, so when the First Order came to power he decided to do something about it. Soon as he could, he hitched a ride on a ship leaving the system and sought out the Resistance. He hasn't been with the Resistance long, but he has worked his way up to a pilot's position in the fleet.

Misc. Info: None
Kylo Ren
Nicknames: Formerly known as Ben Solo
Age: 27
Gender: Male
Species: Human
Allegiance: First Order
Rank: Dark Jedi
____________________
Appearance: Kylo often wears a mask and a black cloak to hide his identity (and probably because it makes him look intimidating.) Underneath he's very normal looking. He has black hair and brown eyes.
Equipment: Kylo carries an unconventional red lightsaber that he built himself. It has a strange, fractured look about the blade due to the damaged crystal inside, and the crossguard actually functions as exhaust ports of sorts to help stabilize the blade.
Skills: He's very adept at using the Force, and he can use his lightsaber very effectively against blaster-wielding opponents.
Weaknesses: Lightsaber combat isn't his strongest skill and often he uses the Force in battle to make up for this.
Special Abilities: His abilities range from mind reading and mind control to using the Force to stop even the fastest opponents and projectiles in their path. He's a very gifted Force user.
____________________
Personality: Kylo's temperament ranges from calm, collected, and intimidating, to scattered, angry, and irrational, and he can switch back and forth between the two quite easily. It's no secret to those he works with that he has some anger issues, and when things don't go according to plan, he tends to destroy things in his frustration. Thankfully he hasn't been known to take his anger out on people, which is somewhat surprising given his general disregard for others. He feels very little outward compassion towards other people, and he actively seeks to be cold and heartless. In his mind goodness is the same thing as weakness. He has a very clear idea of who he wants to be, and he often struggles with this vision of himself and who he really is. Even as he shuns the light, he also struggles with the desire to return to it.
Besides his moral struggles, Kylo is also known to be calculating, adaptable, and somewhat over-confident. He knows how to strategize and when things don't go according to plan, he can adapt to the situation and change the plan quickly. However, he sometimes over-estimates his own abilities or under-estimates the abilities of others. This sometimes gets him into trouble, but due to his resourcefulness he can often turn these failures around to make them less costly in the long run.
Home Planet: Unknown
History: Kylo was born to Han Solo and Leia Organa not long after the battle of Endor. He trained under Luke Skywalker in his former master's New Jedi Order, but he felt he could never reach his full potential working on the side of the light. He came to be part of the First Order after betraying his former teacher, Luke Skywalker, and decimating Skywalker's new Jedi Order. After this event, Kylo took on his new name and succumbed to the Dark Side of the Force, aspiring to be just as powerful and feared as his grandfather, Darth Vader.
