After 3 of our 4 RPs coming to a halt due to absences I thought it would be good to start up a new RP, possbily one that was less reliant on specific people being around to post all the time.

I remember someone mentioning about the possibility of doing a freeform open RP (was that you, Artekus?) where people could pop in and out and the place would keep ticking, regardless.

So that's exactly what I've done! If you look over here you will see the information for the Venue of the RP is already up but the Topic is currently locked. This is because it took a really long time for me to get all that information together and I've not managed to do an introductory description post yet. As soon as I do however, it will be unlocked and free for you all to use.

All I would ask please is that you only use "Alts" or characters not already engaged in any of the other Forum RPs. You can use characters from this guild, characters you have no intention of being in E.P.O.C.H., or even make up characters just for this RP (however, if you do that please don't make multiple characters, delete/"Write out" any you are no longer using).

This RP is open not only to members but also Initiates and Newly Registered people (that means you, SF!), Alliance members, people from visiting guilds and even 'guests'.

Although I reserve the write to modify / delete any paticularly damaging or deliberately disruptive posts, I will always PM the individual responsibe to give them the option to change their post if I deem it unproductive to the scenario.

For now only the Ground Floor of the Hyperion is open, I will be creating and releasing the other 3 floors as time goes on.

Enjoy!

Impressive! Did you only whip up the 3d map of The Hyperion yesterday? Really good, and the setting is well thought out too. Great job!

Great work may join with Republic Diplomat Constantine Nord V, but not before the end of holiday

Good work on the Ground Floor of the Hyperion, my Sith Alt is definitely gonna be joining in on this rp.

Really good work there Lunarwolf. Vivaa will be calling in for a little light refreshment for sure.

Looks real good , I got a char I want to test out (I'm trying to introduce him in my last 'origins' story for Zala).

A middle-aged weasel of a smuggler (think Woody Allen meets Watto), not entirely sure about race yet (probably human) but thinking of calling him Mort 'mumbles' Obin.

Wow you put alot of effort into that. i'll be joining in once its open!

Thanks for the nice comments guys!

Its meant to be like a kind-of mafia-run type of place so those characters that are a little "rough around the edges" might find the place a bit brighter and cleaner than their usual dingy Cantinas but its well known in the underground circuit as a place where deals can be done of all kinds in relative safety. Its a rare place on Coruscant in that no political power holds sway here, and nobody is entirely sure why (Why don't Sith Maruaders burst in here and kill Jedi Padawans taking refuge from the invasion? Perhaps the place is protected somehow?) but while that is in place it serves a neutral meeting ground for just about anyone that can afford the prices.

Its completely open so feel free to come and go as you please with as many characters as you like, just please stick to one character at a time.

I'll put the first post up asap (hopefully tonight) and then unlock the thread and its all yours. I'll be putting 4 "Reserved" posts on the end of the main one, just to let you know. This will cover the food and drinks list (so you know what you're ordering!) and 3 posts for each of the upper floors to be added in at a later date.

The plan is this RP will stay active until launch and will serve as a place where new members can come for some easy, laid back RP or can be a place people can try out new characters.

Stellar work Mr Dubz! I say we ditch that "Roleplay Director" title and crown thee "High King of Diligence, Lord of all Roleplay". In fact, I'm going to start calling you that anyway. I'm sure it'll catch on.

Well Sureshot calls me "number 1" (better that than number 2 I guess) and fox calls me "Lady Lunar", so heck... knock yerself out mate

Right, there we go folks.

The Hyperion is now unlocked with a short *cough* introductiory post to help you all get a feel of what its like.

Any questions, problems, queries or comments just chuck 'em back this way.

Enjoy!

RoM have been informed so you may get a few guys heading over

Well I threw my fresh little smuggler into the fray, kept it quite basic (just an intro really) and tested the waters with some of the locals. Be sure to lemme know if I'm pushing it at the door.
