Competition: [May The Fourth] Passing Of The Torch

Running
[May The Fourth] Passing Of The Torch

M4

The ceremony to honour the games in tribute to both the Brotherhood and Grand Master has begun! Your team, whether begrudgingly or not, have been tasked with defending the torch as it is passed from one person to the next across several star systems. However, the torch is rumoured to be an ancient Sith artifact passed down from Grand Master, an artifact of immense power that any enemy of the Brotherhood would want to get their hands on.

The Situation

Whether it is the Collectice, the Children of Mortis, or the return of Grand Master Pravus himself, your team is tasked with defending the torch as it is passed from one carrier to the nextto the next until it reaches the final destination in Eos City. How you achieve this? Well, that's entirely up to you!

Members are allowed and encouraged to explore a variety of locations, world's, and npc characters in their RPs! Go wild and have fun!

Extra Details

You can either have your team pre-assembled or meet at a rendezvous location. That is entirely up to you. As stated, you are welcome to create your own original characters and NPCs for this, but all members participating must have a snapshot attached.

How you run the RP is up to you. Want to use a particular rule set or make your own? Go for it! Teams are more than welcome to use Dice Maiden to determine actions/reactions but doing so will not affect scoring.

Helpful Resources

The Roleplaying Handbook can be found on the Wiki and is a great resource for different rulesets, examples and guides!

It is not mandatory, but highly encouraged to take a look at the RP Shadow Academy Course if you haven’t already.

And finally, if you need help getting things set up or have any questions, please feel free to email the exarch staff.
