The RP (or sorta RP) thread.
Ingmar:
See, the hypocrisy of the so-called Jedi "Masters" knows no bounds!
Sjofn:
You're just pissed I'M a master and YOU aren't. :oh_i_see:
Cyrrex:
My Sith Juggernaut is an arrogant, racist dick. His racism stems more from his birthright as a pure blood Sith who is strong in the force - naturally, all other species, including most humans, are inferior. He is loyal to the Empire, but particularly loyal to his master. At least, as long as his master stays worthy of loyalty. He has developed an inexplicable soft spot for Vette. She is a terrible influence on him. Not only has he removed her collar, but he has effectively made her a partner. He occasionally tempers his actions based on how he thinks she might feel - but only on things that don't matter. If the job at hand is not central to his mission, he will even feign to be interested in the credits, if only to impress her. In reality, however, everything he does is based on a deep seated desire to prove his strength to himself and others. When it comes to matters of pleasing his master or serving the Empire, he never compromises, Vette be damned. Despite her negative influence on him, at heart he is still a cold blooded killing machine who believes himself to be better than everyone around him. He is a surprisingly fabulous dancer. He also had sweaty intercourse with Darth Lachris, and he better not find out that anybody else has too!
Also, he hates Revan, the Revanites, and everything they stood for. Don't fucking go there.

Empire is the only side that works for me. I play Republic like I'm a puppy that shows up to do whatever you want... I think my single most common dialogue voice-over is: "So, how can I help." If there is any element of RP choice it would be: "hey, don't have to sell me on saving the orphans, no I don't need to know their history, where the fuck are they, how do I get there, and could you please stop talking?"
Empire, however, I'm trying to play both characters as members of the old Empire aristocracy... true believers in the virtues of order, civilization, and culture. Its a little tricky since the moral reckoning of Empire from Star Wars (Lucas?) pov is a pretty simplistic Nazi/Communist/Borg blend... still, neither character will ever murder an innocent (unless the choice is Murder/Torture... in which case we skip the torture as culturally insipid and go right to murder) and they think the Sith Lords are mostly chaotic fucks out for themselves ruining what was once a perfectly good empire. The Sith Pureblood Warrior is a sort of Roman pater familias; the Chiss IA more of an Austro-Hungarian bourgeois technocrat. I'm not sure this really fits into any sort of Star Wars canon (I mean, Empire is not really portrayed as corrupted good, just unmitigated evil, right?), but I gives some guidance to choices and makes reading the Empire text more interesting than Republic.
Lantyssa:
I play my Imperials as Americans. They want to believe in the glory of the Empire, but see it has some deep flaws and corruption is ruining it, so they'll do what they can to make things right.
How nice they are and what those means are vary a bit from character to character. Vhashik is arrogant and does think she is superior, but that means she needs to be better than everyone, too. She doesn't take well to being given orders from people she consider inferior, which being Sith Pureblood is just about everyone.
Kylantha is a bit softer since she was a slave. Not nice, per se, but is only an outright bitch if someone gets in her face, at which point all nicety is gone. And she will stick up for the innocent and downtrodden. Ky likes Zash a lot, since she may be scheming and power hungry, but isn't a puppy-kicker type of evil. She really hates the puppy-kickers.
