NEW NEW REPUBLIC RP PROBOARD! — Page 2

I did some research (to get in character) on what looks to be a popular Star Wars RP site and it did look like it was done in third person.  It reads as if people are writing a novel together.

Han Solo @ NEW NEW REPUBLIC RP PROBOARD! said:

Ok it's your call I guess with Ric's job and such. Although with the first person thing; the reason people RP in third person is because RP-ing is like writing a story and there needs to be a solid distinction between the "Ric Olié" in the Star Wars universe and the person portraying "Ric Olié" on the forum. Understand?

Han Solo @ NEW NEW REPUBLIC RP PROBOARD! said:

But in terms of the character sheet, I'm afraid I'm gonna need you to change it to third person and true details.

True details?  I'd like to see him prove that Ric isn't a male model.  Or to prove that the guy playing Ric Olie isn't actually Ric Olie.  Because he is. ;-)

So how do I create my ship? I always wanted to fly one of them Imperial Star Destroyers

Han Solo @ NEW NEW REPUBLIC RP PROBOARD! said:

Right, you can own a ship but you have to have a backstory explaining where you got it from, how much it was, what you use it for, that sort of thing. All next to the ship name and type on your character sheet. Also make it realistic, I mean a civilian model like Ric wouldn't own two Death Stars and Home One! ;-)

One Death Star makes sense, but two is crazy talk!

YES!!! The more the better.  If you're going to spam this website, you had better be ready for the consequences.

Eh...HotRod isn't in Star Wars???

What the hell have I been watching then??

HA!

btw, I'm guessing "Moff Panaka" is xhonzi, though he hasn't posted yet.  Typical xhonzi, trying to get Ric upset through Panaka...

Oops!  I was trying to fit in.  I want to be Han Solo's right hand man.

Awesome bio, anyway.  I think it's better if it doesn't make sense. ;-)

Ric's new bio (non tense changes underlined):

----------

Name: Ric Olie
Race: Naboo
Age: None of Your Business
Faction: Available to the Highest Bidder
Occupation: Pilot/Voiceover Artist/Male Model
Weapons: Deadly Observations, Killer Looks, Laser Pistol, Utility Belt
Weapon Proficiencies: Language, Seduction, Handguns, Miscellaneous (Non-Traditional) Weapons
Equipment: Buy Me Dinner First, Then We'll Talk Equipment
Ship(s): Naboo Royal Transport, Naboo Starfighter

History:

Upon birth Ric told the delivery room that he had just been born. During grade school Ric attended school. Upon graduating high school Ric attended high school graduation. Ric joined the military to serve his planet, Naboo, which is the planet he was born on, when his Mom pushed him out of her womb, which was 9 months after she had familial relations with his Dad, who was his father.

Although rarely mentioned in traditional "textbooks," Ric saved Naboo (and by extension The Republic) by discovering Anakin Skywalker and tutoring him on how to fly and how to deliver flat line readings. During the penultimate space battle with the Trade Federation resulting from the Invasion of Naboo, Ric was the one who made the critical observation that the Naboo forces did not hit the Droid Control Ship, while one of his underlings (whom he also tutored) observed that the ship blew up from the inside.

After the war, Ric settled down and started a family. He currently has a lovely wife, Lela Olie, and together they have sons Ric Jr. Olie, Roc Olie, Rick Olie, Brok Olie, and Bowling Olie, as well as daughters Ra Olie and Mer Olie, and twins Molly Olie and Dolly Olie.

Ric has kept busy doing plenty of voiceover work, including commercials, books on tape, and movie trailers. He also has several spoken word albums. And recently Ric havs done some male modeling, mostly hand and foot modeling but a few headshots as well.

Ric has a twin brother, Ric Olié, who throughout the years has attempted to use Ric's exploits for his own advantage.

RP Example:

Ric landed the ship on the platform. Something rumbled in his stomach, but for once it wasn't Lela's cooking. No, this time it was the Tooke that the dirty Gungans had implanted in him when they captured him the prior Thursday. Well, that's why he was here on Chommell Minor - to find a way to get the rodent out.

Ric stepped off the ship and moved into the jungle, his less-than-faithful sidekick robot Squeaky at his side. Squeaky wasn't much in a firefight, but was useful in situations where the natives might mistake him for an ancient God.

Ric and Squeaky crested a hill and the sand stung their eyes. Well, not Squeaky's eyes, being that he was a robot and all, but you get the point. Anyway, Ric wrapped his parka closer around him, drawing his hood tight until only the slits of his eyes were visible. Ric had come close to freezing to death many times before, but this time he wasn't taking the chance.

SUDDENLY!!! A Naboobian Blarth leap into view. Ric shouted at the top of his lungs:

"You are a Blarth!"

The Blarth, faced with the obviousness of Ric's attack, slunk away, confused and depressed. Ric and Squeaky continued on through the jungle....

TO BE CONTINUED
