The Dark Academy on Korriban

It's like previews! But we're already invited in to see the game!

Been busy translating old battle wound documents from battles in 1333 Japan all day.

Gotta feel sorry for the guy that had an arrow go through his jaw and stick into his shoulder... only then to get less of a reward because the wound was marked as 'shallow' because it was measuring how deep it went into his shoulder.

Or the guy who get's shot by two different arrows beneath and to the right of his right eye, who loses his eye, but gets less of a reward because they were able to put his cheek back on with fire... which again was marked as a 'shallow' wound in the official report.

No arrow in the knee? I have heard that is a crippling injury...

There was indeed an arrow to the knee. It was marked as a 'deep' wound and he got more rewards for it.

No one can rob one of the glory of an arrow to the knee.

Arrow in the knee is universally healed by retiring to own a bar in a country village that the young hero of prophecy will grow up in . . .

This particular retiree was in fact a young sage from a mountain village.

Too bad he has like the most common name in the world so there's no way of knowing what he ever did after that.

I'm sure we know what the hero of prophecy he ended up training did.... Just don't have the documents to tie it together.

Oh. Hello.

Hello.

Nice job not being a slave anymore.

Way to be efficient and effective.

Is that some sort of subtle insult? You look like the sort of guy that tries to make subtle insults.

*decides to stab in retaliation regardless*

*Dodges the stab*

No subtle insult. You're useful, so you're here. I like useful things.

You go around stabbing people though and wasting valuable human capital....

Then the subtle insults will come.

I'm sorry Private Jo you would get a medal for that arrow through the face but the shallow nick in your shoulder disqualifies you. Thanks for your service.

The last guy that thought I was useful to *him* ended up dead. Just saying.

@Dapperdog
*meanwhile, the guy who had an arrow go through his hand (without breaking a bone) waves his bandaged hand at Jo from his new mansion*

"You should have pushed that arrow all the way through your shoulder Jo. Then you'd have been rewarded like me and my 'deep' wound."

@Layne

You don't need to be useful to me. We all need to be useful to the Empire.

I am not the arbiter of everyone's usefulness.... yet....

What's the empire?

*she asked, in a completely serious tone*

*writes something on datapad*

Your teachers should let you know soon...

I hope....

Something *you* can use until you get somewhere better

Time for murder!

Ah! Another one!

Ah. Sarcasm. I have encountered this.

*stabs the datapad*

If Shaisha and I were to have a child... It would be Zeno.

No it wouldn't. It would be inferior to me!

Wrong.

It'd actually probably have a better reputation than you...

I plan to have a timeline up this weekend and a General state of the Empire in short it's good news and bad news... Probably try and cover who is and isn't on the Dark Council at this time.

Off the top of my head should be Darth Thanaton, Darth Ravage, Darth Marr, Darth Vengen... I know a whole lot of them die in the SWTOR storyline especially the latest expansion but yeah. I will probably create a few myself.

Except one of my parents is a Sith Lord if significantly more power and means than she and the other is the scion of the noble house I hail from which you are not. If I had another means of upping my starting Reputation I would because it would be character appropriate narrative wise.

Heh, noble-blooded pissing contest.

*grabs popcorn*
