NPC Creation FAQ & Questions

Ok ty

 

[Xevek Nekonis]

If I was creating a Holocron of a long-dead, made-up Sith, would I need a NPC Submission for the Sith?

 

[Boethiah]

[member="Xavka Duquo"]

Nope. NPC subs are optional.

Okay. Thanks for getting back to me so quickly, I appreciate it.

 

[Six-O]

If I wanted to portray an NPC that is not necessarily always attached to my main character, but actually occasionally will go off and join in on other threads absent of him. Would that be acceptable, or would that be a case of needing to make secondary, tertiary, quaternary accounts. Essentially, could the NPCs I create have lives that don't entirely revolve around Six-O, but they are frequent collaborator/companions. Perhaps even frequent allies of other PCs?

You can do this, yes - RP your NPCs with your main account if you so wish. However, any NPC you wish to progress through Force User training and advance through the ranks would be better off as it's own full PC account. While you may submit NPCs of Knight and Master rank, they will require substantial development threads depending upon their capabilities. Anything that you intend to write as more than simple background fluff (which is really what NPCs are designed for) should be a full PC.

Does knight level powers for npc require dev threads?

 

[Lucien Cordel]

yep

 

[Rose Blade]

What are the requirements for it?

 

[Quietus]

[member="Rose Blade"] it's going to depend on what powers you intend for them to have. The higher the skill and rarer the powers, the more dev may be required. For a Knight with basic skills and average powers I woukd reccomend a 10 post dev thread displaying these things.

I'm afraid I don't quite understand the system you have worked out there. Please explain.

[Crentice]

Is it possible to use the canon Shadow Guard, Saber Guard, or Imperial Guard?

 

[Boethiah]

Is it possible to use the canon Shadow Guard, Saber Guard, or Imperial Guard?

You can submit units inspired by any canonical unit you wish, using the same names even. Just be warned that this doesn't stop others from doing the same even if you've already subbed them. Also make sure to write them in your own way, too.

 

[Briah Song]

Concerning submissions that require development threads: Is it possible to have a solo thread focused on that NPC even if the character attached to the posting account isn't involved in that thread?

E.g. I want to make a thread about this NPC, but Auron is not a part of these events. Can I just write out a thread IC as this NPC?

 

[Quietus]

[member="Auron"]

That would be fine.
