Chatterbox: Inkwell

Smuggler's Rest RP!

I know I don't make RPs very often, and there's too many new as it is, but...you know how plot bunnies are. ;)

This is a Star Wars RP, but not in the traditional sense. The Smuggler's Rest is a seedy little inn on the sketchier side of Coronet City, the planetary capital of Corellia. Most spacers will blow through Corellia eventually, despite its inconvenient proximity to the Core, so as you can imagine, the Smuggler's Rest serves a lot more than just smugglers. All the characters are staying at the Smuggler's Rest, wanting nothing more than to get off Corellia but having no way to do so. They're forced to team up, and fast, because the days of the Smuggler's Rest might be numbered: with the new Imperial government came new crackdowns on health and safety codes, of which the Rest is clearly in violation of several. Everyone has his/her/their own motives, preferred destinations, personalities, etc., so working together could be...troublesome. I have a bad feeling about this...

Rules:

-ABSOLUTELY NO FORCE-SENSITIVE CHARRIES. This is meant to take place in the "normal" galaxy (such as it is), and under the Empire, Force-sensitivity is a death mark anyway.

-If you're going to be leaving, please let us all know. It's no fun when someone makes a charrie then just...disappears.

-We'll start once 6-8 people have joined; further joining will be considered on a case-by-case basis (though the chances of getting in are good). 

-Make your charrie reasonable. I have little patience for Mary Sues (incredibly OP and/or clichéd characters).

-Could people think about changing up their usual charrie formula? Try making a charrie whose gender is opposite from yours, or a charrie in their thirties instead of their teens, or a charrie from one of the more unusual alien species. Be creative!

I think that's it. Here's my charrie, and may the Force be with you! 

Name: Tisaneh Roell

Gender: Male

Age: 24

Species: Twi'lek

Appearance: Orange skin, dark brown eyes, teeth sharpened in traditional Twi'lek style, very subtle pale striping on shoulders and lekku, quite short. Wears a pretty typical off-white tunic and trousers, many-pocketed brown synth-leather vest, equipment belt, rather beat-up boots, and a black fabric headwrap (unusual for male Twi'leks, but common for females).

Personality: Like that of the stereotypical geek, complete with smarts, social awkwardness, and tendency toward obsession. Excellent with academia and all manner of technology, but with other people, he's hopeless: shy, gawky, oblivious to social cues, and completely guileless. Often acts like the little boy he was not so many years ago.

Background: Grew up on Herdessa, where he met his girlfriend in secondary school. They spent almost a year together before her passion for him began to cool, and she went to Coronet City to pursue a degree in Republic law. (This changed to Imperial law during her first semester, but she didn't really care.) Tisaneh, desperate, followed her and began an apprenticeship as a mechanic at Corellian Engineering Corp. She welcomed him at first, but officially broke up with him and kicked him out of her apartment a couple weeks ago. He's now living at the Rest because it's got the lowest prices around, but wants to go somewhere else to pursue his real dream: designing the coding for datapad games.
