Welcome one, one and all, to Poke Wars: Battlefront!
PokeWars: Battlefront is based heavily on the Star Wars saga. The name is also similar to that of Star Wars: Battlefront. Its a great game.
However, this RP is different. It does not follow any line of thought. What the war becomes is entirely up to you.
Plot
Poke Wars: Battlefront is set in a galaxy inhabited by pokemon. These pokemon are much like humans in action and thought. Except, of course, their elemental powers and attacking techniques.
The story begins three years after the two Galactican Knights led the fight against the Merchant's Coalition. The Merchant's Coalition, Transgalactic Trading Clan, Android Alliance, and the Confederacy of the Deep Core have allied with eachother to form the Android Revolution Coalition. They have deployed their standardized droid armies onto planets across the galaxy.
In response, the Galactic Republic ordered that a clone army be made. Galactican Knights were sent to the polar world of Syma in the Outer Rim. There, the Symanites, a race of Manafi, were given the task of copying the Knight's DNA and creating hundreds of millions of clones.
Each Knight was cloned for specific classes of soldiers.
The war quickly erupts, the Galactic Knights, only three hundred strong, are all over the galaxy surrounded as the clone legions flew in, releaving the belaguered knights and their foot soldiers summoned from the Capital Guard in Aocon.
This is where you, the role players come in. You are either one of the Galactican Knights sworn to protect the republic and, as the war progresses, comand the clones or one of the clones, sent in to relieve the Knights and their Guard.
Planets
Sectorial System
The Galaxy is divided into five quintisectors. These are named Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, and Epsilon, respectively. Each of these quintisectors are, in turn, divided into twenty oversectors. These oversectors are named after the major planets or features in them. Oversectors are usually named after planets, and also nebulas, quasars, and star stations. Each of the Oversectors are devided into twenty decasectors. These decasectors usually incorporate 100+ stars.
Each quintisector, oversector, and decasector has a capital. Similar to the Galactic Capital fo Aocon, Sectorial Capitals usually house the Sectorial Head or Governor, the Sectorial House or Council. Each of the Quintisectors has a Jedi temple in their capital, which is used as a feeder temple to the main one.
This sectorial set-up, while used first for the Galactic Senate and Council, has been in use since the Galaxy was first settle intersectorially. The system has evolved over time to what it has become during the Galactic Civil War.
Planets
Preface: There are many planets in the galaxy. Of these billions of billions, about one fifth of them can contain oxygen-breathing life like pokémon. Of these, only about one fifth of them are inhabited by pokémon. Some are inhabited by other, unknown alien species that have not yet developped star faring civilizations. Here are some of the most notable planets that will be fought over during the War. While there a few right now, there are many others. They will be added to the list as they come into the war. Feel free to suggest planets to me.
A
Andara - Andara is a earth-like world with many varying climates. From mountains to deserts, forests to plains, this world has a little bit of everything. Teeming with life, Andara is a peaceful world situated in the Inner Rim. It is ruled by a Queen and was one of the first inter-regional planets to be settled by the Aocon race.
Aocon - Aocon is the capital world of the Galactic Republic. A world covered in city, Aocon is situated in the Core Worlds. There are many industrial, residential, and commercial districts across the world. The Millenium District is the largest and grandest. It houses the Galactican Knight Temple, The Galactic Senate and Council, and the House of Lords, which holds the Five Ruling Lords, which serve five year terms. Aocon was where the first pokemon race immerged into space.
Aocon I - Aocon I is the first and only moon of Aocon. It is a moon covered in an amusement park, which draws tourists from all over the galaxy. Aocon I is where many of the residents of Aocon work, operating the rides and supervising crowd traffic.
B
Bish - Bish is a war-torn world belabored by bombings from wars past. After these bombings the Charizard race of the Razians emmerged victorious, and built new cities high above the hazardous surface. However, the many remants of rival races soon attacked these cities through insurgency, taking away shards of material with them as they plunged to their "martyr" death.
C
Ceenis - A planet covered in water, Ceenis is a world of stormy seas with a few, rocky islandic outcroppings. An Enperuto Clan - the Ceenans, live to the north of the sea.
D
Daba Prime - Daba is a small forest world that houses a small Teddiursa race called the Nabans. These Nabans are primitive to say the least, and believe in a strange religion based upon a Galactican Knight that visited the planet on a mission to investigate a rebellios droid factory that was said to be under construction on the planet three hundred years before the Galactic War.
Daba IX - Daba Nine is an arctic world with strange Ursaring variants colored white with glacial powers. Three hundred years before the War, a rebel base was said to be located there.
E
Eshio IV - The fourth moon of the gas giant Eshio, Eshio IV is an aquatic world that often houses galactic vacations. It is used as a base for many companies that mine the Eshioan gases.
F
Feugoci - A small, volcaning moon in the system of Feugo, Feugoci is a moon covered in lava. It is located in the Outer Rim. Many mining facilities operate there. One of the largest of these was secretly transformed into a droid factory. This operation failed when a Knight by the name of Tristan and three other knights. The factory was later re-opened at a different location on the lava moon, late into the war, and the Coalition leaders hid there for a time.
Fimaru - A desert world with hardly any inhabitants, Fimaru is used by a few companies to test speeder bikes and other repuslorcraft and similair vehicles. The galactic air and land speed records were recorded here. While they are few, fewer than a quarter million, the few Fimaruans scrape out a living by farming a special herb that many races use for their healing characteristics. Situated in the Outer Rim, Fimaru is a depot along the Fimaruan Run, which it is named after. It is a space port and trading depot for those that make the Run. Its moon, Fumari Praxya is covered in a droid factory that later defected to the Android Revolution Coalition.
Folly - A planet of poisonous gases situated in the Xana System along with Zenetath and Ohenae, Folly was named such for its poison. Folly has never been settled, though recently, Republic scientists have discovered a thin, unstable layer of oxygen that could be the base of mining operations.
Folly I - The only moon of Folly, Folly I is a an extremely cold world that only a few adept at arctic living can survive in.
K
Kreblas - Kreblas is a sombre planet. The last planet in the Rebortas System, Kreblas is very cold. The race of Sneasels and Weavels, the Kreblans, were used to the icey climate however. That was, until an asteroid rammed into Kreblan I. Three years later, the moon exploded from an instable core. The moon crashed into the planet, causing Kreblas to shake out of its orbital circle and its axes to stop from turning. Kreblas slowly began to melt, revealing large patches of ocean as Kreblas was pulled in a bit to the star Robertas. The Kreblans on the dark side of the now rotation-less moon withered away in a matter of days. The Kreblans on the light side quickly evacuated to Kreblas III, the only moon, aside from the destroyed Kreblas I, that could hold life.
[INDENT]Kreblas I - A planet of ice and volcanic mountains fighting for space, Kreblas I was destroyed shortly after an asteroid rammed into it. The asteroid caused the moon to explode three years later because of an instable core.
Kreblas II - An atmosphereless moon with valuable mineral desposits. The Kreblans later mined this moon and used it as a colony. The largest spaceport on the moon is Ghiacco in tribute of the Kreblan capital city of that name.
Kreblas III - A moon of ice and rock, Kreblas III was the homeworld of the Kreblans after Kreblas was virtually deemed unlivable. Kreblas III's capital is Nuvo Neve. Kreblas III is a moon totally covered by ice and snow. The Kreblans carved out cities in the tundra, often using their claws and machines to dig out channels hundreds of miles into the icey tundra and even into the frozen crust a thousand miles down.
L
Latheta - Latheta is a calm, peaceful world filled with large, deep lakes surrounded by rich marshes and lush forests. The Thetan Race is well known for their many galactic space travel inventions, most notable the Theta Ion Drive and many variants. The Thetans rule over the Lathes in there capital of Lytan while the Lathes's capital is Athenes. These two cities have fought in many past wars, but peace has settled since Latheta was part of the Alliance of Children during the Great Hythyn War.
N
Nopa Aobi - Nopa Aobi is a large world of ocean that was discovered by the Xapans early on in their starfaring. Aobi is home to the Blaizekin species Aobans who have adapted to the oceanic life. The planet also houses a few tropical islands, which are often transformed into resort cities for the Nopan Reigon.
Nopa Baa - A world of ice, Nopa Baa is the nearest inhabited planet to Nopa Xapa. Part of the Baa System, Nopa Baa was settled early on by the Xapans, who used their fire abilities to form large blocks of ice that were used to build huge cities of ice with. Baa was eventually used as a temporary capital after the Republic took Xapa. Soon after it too, was taken, the capital city of Chexok besieged for over a year before the Xapans finally surrendered.
Nopa Ehrebin - Nopa Ehrebim is where the Nopan Run splits off from the Fimuruan Run. The planet was first developed as a space port for the ambitious Xapans. However, the Xapans resorted to living underground upon the lush green plains and high in the rain forest canopy after the Nopa Xapa was taken by the Republic. Ehrebin remained as a Xapan Imperial stronghold for many years, some Xapans resorting to guerilla tactics. Ehrebin was finally put under Republic rule with the Treaty of Nyma Prime (signed in the planetary capital.)
Nopa Robi - Nopa Robi is world of mountains rich in resources. It was the industrial heart of the Nopan Empire, and Robi was deprived of resources even before the Republic came. The native Swampert race - Robites, were enslaved by the Xapans as beasts of burden to cart wagons full of precious minerals over the tough mountain trail to reach the nearest port. Later, the Robites rebelled, forming their own nation near the largest of the Robian lakes - Bayaaa Lake, which, unbeknownst to the Xapans, was connected to all of the other lakes through underground aquifers. The quadripedal Robites soon totally rebelled from the Xapans, there Marshtomp pilots breaking up the Xapan Blockade. The Robite Nation, however, fell as the Xapan Empire did with the Republic victory in the Nopan War.
Nopa Xapa - A world of desert and volcanic mountain ridges, Nopa Xapa was part of the Nopan Empire. It served as the capital for the Blaizekin race, the Xapans, that ruled it. Nopa Xapa would eventually fall to the Republic forces, and the Xapans would be given an autonomous nation incorporating many worlds in the former Nopan Empire. These planets slowly absorbed Republican thought and eventually the Xapans gave up their autonomous rule. Situated in the Outer Rim, Nopa Xapa is part of the Nopa Run which passes directly through the former Nopan Empire.
O
Ohenae - One of the three planets of the Xana System, along with Zenetath and Folly, Ohenae is a world shrouded in mystery. It is always covered in thick fog, and of the hundreds of known expeditions, only two have sent back transmissions before being attacked, reporting that the world was swampy with tall, fungal growth. Oheanae has for many years been thought of as protected by the Legendarian Gods by the more religious of Zenetath.
R
Razion - While Aocon is the most populated in the Capital Decasector, Razion comes close. Originally the capital of the Razion Empire, Razion and its star, Raz A, however, have flourished ever since. Razion is a planet covered in city, though there is one ocean at the south pole that is mined for ice and hydrogen. Razion remains to be one of the most important planets in the Galaxy.
Rebortas - Rebortas is the fifth planet in the Rebortas System. It is a planet that is past its time. Originally, it was inhabited by an oxygen-breathing race that sought immortality through robotics. Eventually, the entire race was destroyed by eachother in the search, a few pitiful creatures remaining. Situated in the Deep Core, where it is nearly impossible to be found due to the gravitational pull that is so powerful, none of the Knights have known about it for ages. They wouldn't be able to find it either even if they got to it, for Rebortas is hidden in a large asteroid field. Add to the fact that the planet resembles an asteroid - a hunk of atmosphereless rock. Except for one large factory. The Rebortans were tasked by the Hythyn Lords to construct a droid army. That was nearly fifty years ago. However, two years into the war, their army came forth, the last Rebortans serving as generals of the fleet.
Rombonia - A planet in the Rhomb System, which is in the same decasector of Aocon, Rombonia is a colony of Razion. Rombonia is a calm world of plains were many races of Manectric live, ruling the planes. The humans from Aocon settled early on, and the planet became a part of the Razion Empire after the Rhomb Civil War, rebelling from the Aocon Federation. Five hundred years later, the Razion Empire was desolved and Rombonia ruled itself. The Razions returned later on, but were conquered by the Aocon Federation and Razion and Rombonia became members of the early Galactic Republic. Rombonia is ruled by the House of Quirinius, who are a clan of Charizards, Charmeleons, and Charmanders.
S
Syma - A world ruled by a Manafi race - the Symanites, Syma is primarily comprised of two arctic continents at the poles. A large, deep ocean seperates the two continents, which houses a few tropical islands. The Symanites first immerged to these islands, and eventually built cities hovering high above the water, as well as large cities on the polar continents, where a Ursaring Insurgency still remains.
T
Tebu - An oceanic planet, Tebu is nearly all ocean, except for the Jowari Chain of islands that runs all the way around the equator. The Tebans and Buans (Gyrados and Tentacruel clans, respectively) that are left after the Android Coalition began dumping toxic waste into the ocean. The Tebans and Buans, along with the Greggaru and Dokuragu Clan of Jowarans, allied together to fend of the droids. The Coalition gave up on the planet and sought places elsewhere to dump toxic waste.
U
Urodine - Urodine is a volcanic planet in the Inner Rim. It is routinely inspected by the Order due to rebellious activity of the Magmar Urodines. Master Gargarensis was killed during one routine inspection. After this, the planet was crushed with the heavy fist of a delegation of Knights headed by master knight Fenellen himself, whose Politoed skin easily resisted the Urodians elemental attacks.
Z
Zenetath - Situated in the Outer Rim, Zenetath is one of the three planets on Xana. And it is the only planet of Xana to be inhabitable. Zenetath spins vertically in relation to Xana. The north half of the planet is comprised of desert with few oasises. None live there, excluding a tribe of Onix and Steelix. The south-west is a lush, humid tropical forest. However, a mysterious race, possibly extra-pokemonic rules anarchy in the forest and few attempted settlements have survived past the one year mark. None have survived the two year mark. The south-east quarter is where the people of Zenetath live. In the city of Corum, which stands over a large diamond mind and pervades all of the praire, rules the Elekible Dictator, Lord Desceptre.
Factions
Galactican Knights
The Galactican Knights are an ancient religious group that draw power from the "Force." According to Knight belief, the "Force" is the power behind the Lengendarian gods. These gods are said to visit the most important Knights at the most vital times.
The Galactican Knights wield powerful, colorful laser swords. These laser swords are quite deadly, and can slice through a pokemon in a single slice.
The Knights have created various forms of laser sword combat, each based off of different martial arts. Knights usually wield one laser sword, which range in color from purple to blue (the most common) to green (second most common) to yellow (rarest, along with purple). Meanwhile, Hythyn Lords use red laser swords. There are exceptions to the one laser sword form - monosword forms, these included wielding two swords - dualsword, or wielding a dual bladed staff sword connected by a larger handle - bistaff. There are also variants to the sword, such as a curved hilt preferred by some more archaic knights.
Ranks
Smallling - a knight that has been found but has not yet been excepted into a youngling clan. Since the age minimum is four, the ones that are found at an early age are often put into small groups managed by apprentices and padawans and knights and the guard.
Youngling - a knight that is still under training in a clan of 10+ younglings, led by an experienced knight. Age 4-8
Apprentice - a knight that has graduated from a youngling clan but that has not yet been excepted by a Galactican Knight to begin apprenticeship as a padawan. Apprentices are usually given odd jobs, sometimes being taken by more experienced knights to meetings to be taught diplomacy or the workings of the Order. Apprentices also take care of and sometimes help with smalling nurseries and youngling clans. If apprentices have not been chosen by the age of 16, they are sent to the agriculturally-rich world of Ayis and are trained to be Force Monks. Age 7-16.
Padawan - a knight that has been chosen by a Galactican Knight or Master to be apprenticed. Padawans usually work with their masters during missions across the galaxy until their time to be officially granted the rank of Galactican Knight has come. Age 10-
Galactican Knight - a knight that has been through apprenticeship. These knights are the corps of the order, and often do undercover work across the galaxy. The High Council eventually gives them leave to take an apprentice. Age 20-
Master - a knight that was given the rank of master and is a member of the Master's Council.
Councils
Seeker's Council - a knight that is especially gifted at feeling the force in others. Some of these are those that were not taken by a knight to be padawans. Often, these knights are sent back from the Ayis Monestary after they are found be gifted in the force. The Head Seeker has a ten year term and participates in High Council Meetings.
Circle of Light - a circle of seers adept at seeing prophecies through the force. Often these knights are less compitent at laser swords, though there are exceptions, especially with formal circle members eventually being part of the High Council. The Head Seer has a ten year term and participates in High Council Meetings.
Council of Order - the council that manages Order affairs, such as giving out missions, arranging apprenticeships, and speaking to knight's that have a rebellious streak. The Council Spokesman is serves for ten years over the council and reports to High Council Meetings.
Council of Realms - the Council of Realms manages Knight-other realm affairs. Council members are often the most adept at diploimacy and politics. A contingent of the council is the delegation to the Galactic Senate and Council and another contingent serves the Five Lord's, as does one to the Supreme Chancellor, Kimus Mas. The Diplomatic Regent manages the council and serves a ten year term.
High Council - the High Council oversees everything. They manage each of the councils, and in turn advise each of the Council heads. The High Council is comprised of five master knights that serve lifetime terms. Five more are chosen to serve ten year terms on the council. Each of the four councils is represented by the Council Head. Another two are sent as personal envoys for Kimus Mas and the Five Lords. This totals 16 members. The first ten meet every day, while the other six come weekly. The High Council gives out the highest of missions and tests younglings when they are overaged at exceptence, test Padawan's for the Trials, and do similair duties. As the war progressed, the High Council Masters were the highest of generals in the army.

Galactic Republic
The Galactic Republic is a republic that has ruled the galaxy for over three million years. It has seen the rise and fall of countless rebellions and Hythyn Empires. All have failed, and the Republic has remained strong. A few thousand years ago, a long war was fought, which ended with seven long battles on the planet of Roussan. The Roussan Reforms were written up, which drastically reduced the Republic Army, Navy, and Starfighter Corps. The Knights dwindled to a few hundred from the millions that they once were.
Government
Executive Branch
The Five Lords head the Executive Branch. Each Lord is elected by a fifth of the galaxy - a quintisector. Each Lord then appoints secretaries for each of the cabinets for that quintisector. These cabinets are: State, Treasury, Defense, Trade. There are many other smaller departments in two more cabinets.
The Five Lords vote in order to pass ammendments. A 3/5 vote is required. The Supreme Chancellor is the head of the Five Lords and breaks a tie, for example, if a Lord is absent or does not wish to vote. The Supreme Chancellor can also ovveride the Lords by getting the Council to vote for the Chancellor to attain ammendment ovveride powers. These powers last for one vote.
Legislative Branch
The Supreme Chancellor heads the Senate, which is much larger than the Council. The Senate each has delegations from individual decasectors (twenty per oversector) based upon population (average is 1 per 1 billion people.) Meanwhile, the Council has two delegates from each oversector (twenty per quintisector.) There are 2000 decasectors and 400 oversectors. There is an additional delegation from the Galactican Knight Order and an oversector outside the quintisectors for all other stations and extra-sectorial planets.
The Galactic Council, meanwhile, is much smaller. It only has 400 delegates. The Council, however, is the higher house. It can vote for the Republic to declare war on rebellious enemies and to approve inter-planetary treaties.
Clone Forces
The clones were created using various Knights as templates.
Battle Clone - Charmealeon - 178A Rifle, 178A Pistol, Advanced Battle Detonator. Battle Clones were the heart of the Clone Army. They were the most common of soldiers, though they often appeared in slight variation, depending upon climate and tactical situation.
Advanced Battle Clone - Charizard - 179A Rifle, 179A Pistol, Elite Battle Detonator. Advanced Battle Clones were created to combat the new Advanced Battle Droids. They had more powerful weaponry and were trained to be aided by standard Battle Clones. They appeared one year into the war.
Clone Vanguard - Nidoqueen/Nidoking - Anti-Vehicular Rocket Launcher, 179A Pistol, Advanced Battle Detonator, Mines. Clone Vanguards were deployed a few weeks into the war to fight the ever increasing amount of Android Revolution Coalition vehicles. They also were used to take out large squads of droids and turrets.
Clone Sniper - Raichu - Sniper Rifle, 178A Pistol, Advanced Battle Detonator. The clone sniper first appeared in the first battles, taking out important Droid Commanders. Eventually, Snipers became so common that they were used to take out standard droids when they were far away from standard soldiers. A Clone Sniper variant was made three years into the war. Called the Clone Jet Sniper, this variant was a master at shooting from in the sky, taking out the latest Elite Skydroids.
Clone Scout - Sneasel - 178A Shotgun, Engineer's Wrench, Manual Detonator. The Clone Snout was also one of the initial classes. The Scout was used in many battles to scout out what the enemy was doing. They often rode speeder bikes or similar craft. Scouts were masterful at repairing and creating defenses. They were usually deployed, in the Engineer's Corps, as the last line of defense against key holdings such as factories, refineries, and planetary defense turrets.
Clone Commando - Alakazam - 21C Chaingun, 178B Commando Pistol, Reconnasaince Droid. The Clone Commando appeared first two years into the war. They were used to command small squads of clone troopers during combat, and also to attack large squads of droids with their powerful 21C Chainguns. They used their Recon Droids to survey enemy lines before giving their troops orders.
Clone Naval Commando - Blastoise - 178A Rifle, 178B Commando Pistol, Advanced Naval Droid, Advanced Battle Detonator. The Naval Commando was deployed on oceanic worlds. The heavy hitter when it came to naval combat, the CNC could take out a platoon of droids with a single round. They had been trained for the first two years of the war to perform such tasks, and were the reason many hard fought naval battles were won. There are many variants to the CNC. Among these, the SCUBA and SEAL stand out. They required even further training, being deployed over two years later than their standard CNC counterparts.
Clone Marine - Squirtle - 178A Rifle, 178A Pistol, Advanced Battle Detonator. The Clone Marine was the most common of naval soldiers. They recieved basic training, and were used as the primary attack force in sea-going battles. Slowly, they were replaced by more specific clones, such as the CNC, SCUBA, and SEAL. However, they always remained as the main naval force.
Clone Pilot - Larvitar - 178A Pistol, Engineer's Wrench, Time Bomb. Clone Pilots recieved special training to be prepared for space warfare. Usually fighting in Republic Air-and-Space Fighters - ASF Models 1-27C2, Pilots formed the major part of the Clone Starfighter Corps. Special pilot variants included those trained to fight in hostile planetary airspace and to act as bombers, as well as pilot the greatest QUASAR Gunships that were used to board enemy ships.
Clone Avenger - Hitmonchan - 178A Rifle, 178A Pistol, Rocket Launcher, Advanced Battle Detonator. The Clone Avengers were made for combat in enemy hangars and ships. Headed by a Clone QUASAR Commando, squads of Avengers would be piloted in to enemy hangars by QUASAR Gunships. The QUASAR Commando would then lead them on their specific mission, ranging form disabling key engines and systems to taking out ship turrets to rescuing political figures taken hostage. In extreme cases, a Galactican Knight was taken along to lead the effort. A Clone Avenger often died in the enemy hangar or ship. This was either because they failed there mission or they had succeeded, thus causing the enemy ship to be destroyed. The Avenger was considered the highest honor.
Clone Defender - Hitmonlee - 178A Rifle, 178A Pistol, 179A Rifle, 179B Commando Pistol. Clone Defenders often had dull and dreary work during space battles. They were the last line of defense in ships, and thus often did not meet much combat. However, when they did, it was intense. Trained to wield two rifles or pistols at the same time, Defenders were the second highest honor, next to the Avenger. Defenders were often used as guards for political figures and Clone Commandors, even out of battle and on planets.
Republic Guard
While techinally a contingent of the Republic Army, the Guard was directly connected with the Galactican Knights. They served the Knights at their side during direction of battle, and did the same to other political figures that required on-planet protection. The Guard were a great order that was selected from the various militairy acadmies across the galaxy. While the rest would become Sector or Planetary Police, the Guard were brought to Aocon and into an advanced training program. Three years later, they would graduate, regal red robes and powerful rifles adorning them. They used various weapons and were masters of many different martial art forms.
Variants of the Guard include the Senate and Council Guard and the Five Lord's Guard. Each were trained even more intensely. The Senate and Council Guard wore blue while the Five Lord's Guard wore gold and red.
Guard members are of all species [that are erect]. Thus, if they can stand up and wield a rifle, they can be excepted into the Guard.
Android Revolution Coalition
The Android Revolution Coalition is a conglomerate of many seperate guilds that had built their own droid armies to defend their ships. These droids varied greatly from guild to guild. When the Android Revolution Coalition Pact was signed, the standardized army was still under construction.
However, most armies consist of the standard battle droid, which is usually brown in color, and wields a blaster rifle, blaster pistol, and advanced detonator. There are various offshoots. Feel free to describe them differently, as they are different from battle to battle, army to army, squad to squad.
Droids do not resemble pokemon at all, and are said to resemble drawings in ancient temples of an erect race of non-pokemon creatures that are light skinned and hold strange red and white orbs of what is thought to be the force.

Name: (If you are a clone, your name is a greek letter followed by a dash and a series of four numbers. If you are a commando, a C follows your name. A G is the same for commando.) (Guard members have any name, as do Knights. Droids are simply called "Unit _ _ _ _..." usually code is represented with three letters, though it grew as the Android Army became larger.)
Species: (Remember that you can only be a certain species for what you class/type you wish to be. I'm not sure about 4th Gen. If you wish to be a fourth gen pokemon, drop me a PM. As I don't know much of anything about D/P, though Erureido DOES appear as my avi.)
Brief back story: (Feel free to add new planets in name. Obviously, Clones were cloned, Knights were chosen in infancy, and Guard were from an academy. However, you can think up something more creative. This one should be a good 6+ sentence paragraph.)
Personality: (All clones are not the same. Some are more independend than others, while others might be more adept at serving, others more at eating, etc. The same applies to Knights and Guards.)
Apperance: (Remember that clones have variations, such as scars from falls, diseases, etc. This one should be 10+ sentences for Guard and Knights, and 5+ sentences for Clones, as it is sort of easy to describe them.)
Age: (Clones are only 3-10 at the beginning of the War, thanks to growth acceleration technology.)
Faction: (Obviously, clones are the Army, Guards can either be serving the Clone Commanders or the Knights or the Politicians. Knights are either Orthodox, supporting the practices of the former Knights, or Un-orthodox. Some consider this to be rebellious. Be descriptive. If you are a Senate Guard, don't just say Senate or Guard, say Senate Guard.)
Notes: Fourth Gen - PM me if you want to use them.
Also, I will be adding stuff as it pertains to the plot line - planets, new factions (Alliance to Preserve the Republic, Rythyn Lords, etc.)
Thirdly, I will be playing as Darth Zard, the Master Knight, and the leaders of each faction - the Alliance to Preserve the Republic, the Rythyn Lords, the Android Coalition Leaders. This is to ensure that the plot is moving along SOMEHOW.
The RP will start once there are ten good roleplayers that wish to participate. However, you may join at any time, as the war is always evolving. Eventually, I will allow those that sign-up to join other factions, such as the Android Revolution Coalition, and, eventually the Galactic Empire (That stems from the Galactic Republic) and the Alliance to Preserve the Republic, which eventually becomes the Alliance to Restore the Republic.

Welcome one, one and all, to Poke Wars: Battlefront!
PokeWars: Battlefront is based heavily on the Star Wars saga. The name is also similar to that of Star Wars: Battlefront. Its a great game.
However, this RP is different. It does not follow any line of thought. What the war becomes is entirely up to you.
Plot
Poke Wars: Battlefront is set in a galaxy inhabited by pokemon. These pokemon are much like humans in action and thought. Except, of course, their elemental powers and attacking techniques.
The story begins three years after the two Galactican Knights led the fight against the Merchant's Coalition. The Merchant's Coalition, Transgalactic Trading Clan, Android Alliance, and the Confederacy of the Deep Core have allied with eachother to form the Android Revolution Coalition. They have deployed their standardized droid armies onto planets across the galaxy.
In response, the Galactic Republic ordered that a clone army be made. Galactican Knights were sent to the polar world of Syma in the Outer Rim. There, the Symanites, a race of Manafi, were given the task of copying the Knight's DNA and creating hundreds of millions of clones.
Each Knight was cloned for specific classes of soldiers.
The war quickly erupts, the Galactic Knights, only three hundred strong, are all over the galaxy surrounded as the clone legions flew in, releaving the belaguered knights and their foot soldiers summoned from the Capital Guard in Aocon.
This is where you, the role players come in. You are either one of the Galactican Knights sworn to protect the republic and, as the war progresses, comand the clones or one of the clones, sent in to relieve the Knights and their Guard.
Planets
Sectorial System
The Galaxy is divided into five quintisectors. These are named Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, and Epsilon, respectively. Each of these quintisectors are, in turn, divided into twenty oversectors. These oversectors are named after the major planets or features in them. Oversectors are usually named after planets, and also nebulas, quasars, and star stations. Each of the Oversectors are devided into twenty decasectors. These decasectors usually incorporate 100+ stars.
Each quintisector, oversector, and decasector has a capital. Similar to the Galactic Capital fo Aocon, Sectorial Capitals usually house the Sectorial Head or Governor, the Sectorial House or Council. Each of the Quintisectors has a Jedi temple in their capital, which is used as a feeder temple to the main one.
This sectorial set-up, while used first for the Galactic Senate and Council, has been in use since the Galaxy was first settle intersectorially. The system has evolved over time to what it has become during the Galactic Civil War.
Planets
Preface: There are many planets in the galaxy. Of these billions of billions, about one fifth of them can contain oxygen-breathing life like pokémon. Of these, only about one fifth of them are inhabited by pokémon. Some are inhabited by other, unknown alien species that have not yet developped star faring civilizations. Here are some of the most notable planets that will be fought over during the War. While there a few right now, there are many others. They will be added to the list as they come into the war. Feel free to suggest planets to me.
A
Andara - Andara is a earth-like world with many varying climates. From mountains to deserts, forests to plains, this world has a little bit of everything. Teeming with life, Andara is a peaceful world situated in the Inner Rim. It is ruled by a Queen and was one of the first inter-regional planets to be settled by the Aocon race.
Aocon - Aocon is the capital world of the Galactic Republic. A world covered in city, Aocon is situated in the Core Worlds. There are many industrial, residential, and commercial districts across the world. The Millenium District is the largest and grandest. It houses the Galactican Knight Temple, The Galactic Senate and Council, and the House of Lords, which holds the Five Ruling Lords, which serve five year terms. Aocon was where the first pokemon race immerged into space.
Aocon I - Aocon I is the first and only moon of Aocon. It is a moon covered in an amusement park, which draws tourists from all over the galaxy. Aocon I is where many of the residents of Aocon work, operating the rides and supervising crowd traffic.
B
Bish - Bish is a war-torn world belabored by bombings from wars past. After these bombings the Charizard race of the Razians emmerged victorious, and built new cities high above the hazardous surface. However, the many remants of rival races soon attacked these cities through insurgency, taking away shards of material with them as they plunged to their "martyr" death.
C
Ceenis - A planet covered in water, Ceenis is a world of stormy seas with a few, rocky islandic outcroppings. An Enperuto Clan - the Ceenans, live to the north of the sea.
D
Daba Prime - Daba is a small forest world that houses a small Teddiursa race called the Nabans. These Nabans are primitive to say the least, and believe in a strange religion based upon a Galactican Knight that visited the planet on a mission to investigate a rebellios droid factory that was said to be under construction on the planet three hundred years before the Galactic War.
Daba IX - Daba Nine is an arctic world with strange Ursaring variants colored white with glacial powers. Three hundred years before the War, a rebel base was said to be located there.
E
Eshio IV - The fourth moon of the gas giant Eshio, Eshio IV is an aquatic world that often houses galactic vacations. It is used as a base for many companies that mine the Eshioan gases.
F
Feugoci - A small, volcaning moon in the system of Feugo, Feugoci is a moon covered in lava. It is located in the Outer Rim. Many mining facilities operate there. One of the largest of these was secretly transformed into a droid factory. This operation failed when a Knight by the name of Tristan and three other knights. The factory was later re-opened at a different location on the lava moon, late into the war, and the Coalition leaders hid there for a time.
Fimaru - A desert world with hardly any inhabitants, Fimaru is used by a few companies to test speeder bikes and other repuslorcraft and similair vehicles. The galactic air and land speed records were recorded here. While they are few, fewer than a quarter million, the few Fimaruans scrape out a living by farming a special herb that many races use for their healing characteristics. Situated in the Outer Rim, Fimaru is a depot along the Fimaruan Run, which it is named after. It is a space port and trading depot for those that make the Run. Its moon, Fumari Praxya is covered in a droid factory that later defected to the Android Revolution Coalition.
Folly - A planet of poisonous gases situated in the Xana System along with Zenetath and Ohenae, Folly was named such for its poison. Folly has never been settled, though recently, Republic scientists have discovered a thin, unstable layer of oxygen that could be the base of mining operations.
Folly I - The only moon of Folly, Folly I is a an extremely cold world that only a few adept at arctic living can survive in.
K
Kreblas - Kreblas is a sombre planet. The last planet in the Rebortas System, Kreblas is very cold. The race of Sneasels and Weavels, the Kreblans, were used to the icey climate however. That was, until an asteroid rammed into Kreblan I. Three years later, the moon exploded from an instable core. The moon crashed into the planet, causing Kreblas to shake out of its orbital circle and its axes to stop from turning. Kreblas slowly began to melt, revealing large patches of ocean as Kreblas was pulled in a bit to the star Robertas. The Kreblans on the dark side of the now rotation-less moon withered away in a matter of days. The Kreblans on the light side quickly evacuated to Kreblas III, the only moon, aside from the destroyed Kreblas I, that could hold life.
[INDENT]Kreblas I - A planet of ice and volcanic mountains fighting for space, Kreblas I was destroyed shortly after an asteroid rammed into it. The asteroid caused the moon to explode three years later because of an instable core.
Kreblas II - An atmosphereless moon with valuable mineral desposits. The Kreblans later mined this moon and used it as a colony. The largest spaceport on the moon is Ghiacco in tribute of the Kreblan capital city of that name.
Kreblas III - A moon of ice and rock, Kreblas III was the homeworld of the Kreblans after Kreblas was virtually deemed unlivable. Kreblas III's capital is Nuvo Neve. Kreblas III is a moon totally covered by ice and snow. The Kreblans carved out cities in the tundra, often using their claws and machines to dig out channels hundreds of miles into the icey tundra and even into the frozen crust a thousand miles down.
L
Latheta - Latheta is a calm, peaceful world filled with large, deep lakes surrounded by rich marshes and lush forests. The Thetan Race is well known for their many galactic space travel inventions, most notable the Theta Ion Drive and many variants. The Thetans rule over the Lathes in there capital of Lytan while the Lathes's capital is Athenes. These two cities have fought in many past wars, but peace has settled since Latheta was part of the Alliance of Children during the Great Hythyn War.
N
Nopa Aobi - Nopa Aobi is a large world of ocean that was discovered by the Xapans early on in their starfaring. Aobi is home to the Blaizekin species Aobans who have adapted to the oceanic life. The planet also houses a few tropical islands, which are often transformed into resort cities for the Nopan Reigon.
Nopa Baa - A world of ice, Nopa Baa is the nearest inhabited planet to Nopa Xapa. Part of the Baa System, Nopa Baa was settled early on by the Xapans, who used their fire abilities to form large blocks of ice that were used to build huge cities of ice with. Baa was eventually used as a temporary capital after the Republic took Xapa. Soon after it too, was taken, the capital city of Chexok besieged for over a year before the Xapans finally surrendered.
Nopa Ehrebin - Nopa Ehrebim is where the Nopan Run splits off from the Fimuruan Run. The planet was first developed as a space port for the ambitious Xapans. However, the Xapans resorted to living underground upon the lush green plains and high in the rain forest canopy after the Nopa Xapa was taken by the Republic. Ehrebin remained as a Xapan Imperial stronghold for many years, some Xapans resorting to guerilla tactics. Ehrebin was finally put under Republic rule with the Treaty of Nyma Prime (signed in the planetary capital.)
Nopa Robi - Nopa Robi is world of mountains rich in resources. It was the industrial heart of the Nopan Empire, and Robi was deprived of resources even before the Republic came. The native Swampert race - Robites, were enslaved by the Xapans as beasts of burden to cart wagons full of precious minerals over the tough mountain trail to reach the nearest port. Later, the Robites rebelled, forming their own nation near the largest of the Robian lakes - Bayaaa Lake, which, unbeknownst to the Xapans, was connected to all of the other lakes through underground aquifers. The quadripedal Robites soon totally rebelled from the Xapans, there Marshtomp pilots breaking up the Xapan Blockade. The Robite Nation, however, fell as the Xapan Empire did with the Republic victory in the Nopan War.
Nopa Xapa - A world of desert and volcanic mountain ridges, Nopa Xapa was part of the Nopan Empire. It served as the capital for the Blaizekin race, the Xapans, that ruled it. Nopa Xapa would eventually fall to the Republic forces, and the Xapans would be given an autonomous nation incorporating many worlds in the former Nopan Empire. These planets slowly absorbed Republican thought and eventually the Xapans gave up their autonomous rule. Situated in the Outer Rim, Nopa Xapa is part of the Nopa Run which passes directly through the former Nopan Empire.
O
Ohenae - One of the three planets of the Xana System, along with Zenetath and Folly, Ohenae is a world shrouded in mystery. It is always covered in thick fog, and of the hundreds of known expeditions, only two have sent back transmissions before being attacked, reporting that the world was swampy with tall, fungal growth. Oheanae has for many years been thought of as protected by the Legendarian Gods by the more religious of Zenetath.
R
Razion - While Aocon is the most populated in the Capital Decasector, Razion comes close. Originally the capital of the Razion Empire, Razion and its star, Raz A, however, have flourished ever since. Razion is a planet covered in city, though there is one ocean at the south pole that is mined for ice and hydrogen. Razion remains to be one of the most important planets in the Galaxy.
Rebortas - Rebortas is the fifth planet in the Rebortas System. It is a planet that is past its time. Originally, it was inhabited by an oxygen-breathing race that sought immortality through robotics. Eventually, the entire race was destroyed by eachother in the search, a few pitiful creatures remaining. Situated in the Deep Core, where it is nearly impossible to be found due to the gravitational pull that is so powerful, none of the Knights have known about it for ages. They wouldn't be able to find it either even if they got to it, for Rebortas is hidden in a large asteroid field. Add to the fact that the planet resembles an asteroid - a hunk of atmosphereless rock. Except for one large factory. The Rebortans were tasked by the Hythyn Lords to construct a droid army. That was nearly fifty years ago. However, two years into the war, their army came forth, the last Rebortans serving as generals of the fleet.
Rombonia - A planet in the Rhomb System, which is in the same decasector of Aocon, Rombonia is a colony of Razion. Rombonia is a calm world of plains were many races of Manectric live, ruling the planes. The humans from Aocon settled early on, and the planet became a part of the Razion Empire after the Rhomb Civil War, rebelling from the Aocon Federation. Five hundred years later, the Razion Empire was desolved and Rombonia ruled itself. The Razions returned later on, but were conquered by the Aocon Federation and Razion and Rombonia became members of the early Galactic Republic. Rombonia is ruled by the House of Quirinius, who are a clan of Charizards, Charmeleons, and Charmanders.
S
Syma - A world ruled by a Manafi race - the Symanites, Syma is primarily comprised of two arctic continents at the poles. A large, deep ocean seperates the two continents, which houses a few tropical islands. The Symanites first immerged to these islands, and eventually built cities hovering high above the water, as well as large cities on the polar continents, where a Ursaring Insurgency still remains.
T
Tebu - An oceanic planet, Tebu is nearly all ocean, except for the Jowari Chain of islands that runs all the way around the equator. The Tebans and Buans (Gyrados and Tentacruel clans, respectively) that are left after the Android Coalition began dumping toxic waste into the ocean. The Tebans and Buans, along with the Greggaru and Dokuragu Clan of Jowarans, allied together to fend of the droids. The Coalition gave up on the planet and sought places elsewhere to dump toxic waste.
U
Urodine - Urodine is a volcanic planet in the Inner Rim. It is routinely inspected by the Order due to rebellious activity of the Magmar Urodines. Master Gargarensis was killed during one routine inspection. After this, the planet was crushed with the heavy fist of a delegation of Knights headed by master knight Fenellen himself, whose Politoed skin easily resisted the Urodians elemental attacks.
Z
Zenetath - Situated in the Outer Rim, Zenetath is one of the three planets on Xana. And it is the only planet of Xana to be inhabitable. Zenetath spins vertically in relation to Xana. The north half of the planet is comprised of desert with few oasises. None live there, excluding a tribe of Onix and Steelix. The south-west is a lush, humid tropical forest. However, a mysterious race, possibly extra-pokemonic rules anarchy in the forest and few attempted settlements have survived past the one year mark. None have survived the two year mark. The south-east quarter is where the people of Zenetath live. In the city of Corum, which stands over a large diamond mind and pervades all of the praire, rules the Elekible Dictator, Lord Desceptre.
Factions
Galactican Knights
The Galactican Knights are an ancient religious group that draw power from the "Force." According to Knight belief, the "Force" is the power behind the Lengendarian gods. These gods are said to visit the most important Knights at the most vital times.
The Galactican Knights wield powerful, colorful laser swords. These laser swords are quite deadly, and can slice through a pokemon in a single slice.
The Knights have created various forms of laser sword combat, each based off of different martial arts. Knights usually wield one laser sword, which range in color from purple to blue (the most common) to green (second most common) to yellow (rarest, along with purple). Meanwhile, Hythyn Lords use red laser swords. There are exceptions to the one laser sword form - monosword forms, these included wielding two swords - dualsword, or wielding a dual bladed staff sword connected by a larger handle - bistaff. There are also variants to the sword, such as a curved hilt preferred by some more archaic knights.
Ranks
Smallling - a knight that has been found but has not yet been excepted into a youngling clan. Since the age minimum is four, the ones that are found at an early age are often put into small groups managed by apprentices and padawans and knights and the guard.
Youngling - a knight that is still under training in a clan of 10+ younglings, led by an experienced knight. Age 4-8
Apprentice - a knight that has graduated from a youngling clan but that has not yet been excepted by a Galactican Knight to begin apprenticeship as a padawan. Apprentices are usually given odd jobs, sometimes being taken by more experienced knights to meetings to be taught diplomacy or the workings of the Order. Apprentices also take care of and sometimes help with smalling nurseries and youngling clans. If apprentices have not been chosen by the age of 16, they are sent to the agriculturally-rich world of Ayis and are trained to be Force Monks. Age 7-16.
Padawan - a knight that has been chosen by a Galactican Knight or Master to be apprenticed. Padawans usually work with their masters during missions across the galaxy until their time to be officially granted the rank of Galactican Knight has come. Age 10-
Galactican Knight - a knight that has been through apprenticeship. These knights are the corps of the order, and often do undercover work across the galaxy. The High Council eventually gives them leave to take an apprentice. Age 20-
Master - a knight that was given the rank of master and is a member of the Master's Council.
Councils
Seeker's Council - a knight that is especially gifted at feeling the force in others. Some of these are those that were not taken by a knight to be padawans. Often, these knights are sent back from the Ayis Monestary after they are found be gifted in the force. The Head Seeker has a ten year term and participates in High Council Meetings.
Circle of Light - a circle of seers adept at seeing prophecies through the force. Often these knights are less compitent at laser swords, though there are exceptions, especially with formal circle members eventually being part of the High Council. The Head Seer has a ten year term and participates in High Council Meetings.
Council of Order - the council that manages Order affairs, such as giving out missions, arranging apprenticeships, and speaking to knight's that have a rebellious streak. The Council Spokesman is serves for ten years over the council and reports to High Council Meetings.
Council of Realms - the Council of Realms manages Knight-other realm affairs. Council members are often the most adept at diploimacy and politics. A contingent of the council is the delegation to the Galactic Senate and Council and another contingent serves the Five Lord's, as does one to the Supreme Chancellor, Kimus Mas. The Diplomatic Regent manages the council and serves a ten year term.
High Council - the High Council oversees everything. They manage each of the councils, and in turn advise each of the Council heads. The High Council is comprised of five master knights that serve lifetime terms. Five more are chosen to serve ten year terms on the council. Each of the four councils is represented by the Council Head. Another two are sent as personal envoys for Kimus Mas and the Five Lords. This totals 16 members. The first ten meet every day, while the other six come weekly. The High Council gives out the highest of missions and tests younglings when they are overaged at exceptence, test Padawan's for the Trials, and do similair duties. As the war progressed, the High Council Masters were the highest of generals in the army.

Galactic Republic
The Galactic Republic is a republic that has ruled the galaxy for over three million years. It has seen the rise and fall of countless rebellions and Hythyn Empires. All have failed, and the Republic has remained strong. A few thousand years ago, a long war was fought, which ended with seven long battles on the planet of Roussan. The Roussan Reforms were written up, which drastically reduced the Republic Army, Navy, and Starfighter Corps. The Knights dwindled to a few hundred from the millions that they once were.
Government
Executive Branch
The Five Lords head the Executive Branch. Each Lord is elected by a fifth of the galaxy - a quintisector. Each Lord then appoints secretaries for each of the cabinets for that quintisector. These cabinets are: State, Treasury, Defense, Trade. There are many other smaller departments in two more cabinets.
The Five Lords vote in order to pass ammendments. A 3/5 vote is required. The Supreme Chancellor is the head of the Five Lords and breaks a tie, for example, if a Lord is absent or does not wish to vote. The Supreme Chancellor can also ovveride the Lords by getting the Council to vote for the Chancellor to attain ammendment ovveride powers. These powers last for one vote.
Legislative Branch
The Supreme Chancellor heads the Senate, which is much larger than the Council. The Senate each has delegations from individual decasectors (twenty per oversector) based upon population (average is 1 per 1 billion people.) Meanwhile, the Council has two delegates from each oversector (twenty per quintisector.) There are 2000 decasectors and 400 oversectors. There is an additional delegation from the Galactican Knight Order and an oversector outside the quintisectors for all other stations and extra-sectorial planets.
The Galactic Council, meanwhile, is much smaller. It only has 400 delegates. The Council, however, is the higher house. It can vote for the Republic to declare war on rebellious enemies and to approve inter-planetary treaties.
Clone Forces
The clones were created using various Knights as templates.
Battle Clone - Charmealeon - 178A Rifle, 178A Pistol, Advanced Battle Detonator. Battle Clones were the heart of the Clone Army. They were the most common of soldiers, though they often appeared in slight variation, depending upon climate and tactical situation.
Advanced Battle Clone - Charizard - 179A Rifle, 179A Pistol, Elite Battle Detonator. Advanced Battle Clones were created to combat the new Advanced Battle Droids. They had more powerful weaponry and were trained to be aided by standard Battle Clones. They appeared one year into the war.
Clone Vanguard - Nidoqueen/Nidoking - Anti-Vehicular Rocket Launcher, 179A Pistol, Advanced Battle Detonator, Mines. Clone Vanguards were deployed a few weeks into the war to fight the ever increasing amount of Android Revolution Coalition vehicles. They also were used to take out large squads of droids and turrets.
Clone Sniper - Raichu - Sniper Rifle, 178A Pistol, Advanced Battle Detonator. The clone sniper first appeared in the first battles, taking out important Droid Commanders. Eventually, Snipers became so common that they were used to take out standard droids when they were far away from standard soldiers. A Clone Sniper variant was made three years into the war. Called the Clone Jet Sniper, this variant was a master at shooting from in the sky, taking out the latest Elite Skydroids.
Clone Scout - Sneasel - 178A Shotgun, Engineer's Wrench, Manual Detonator. The Clone Snout was also one of the initial classes. The Scout was used in many battles to scout out what the enemy was doing. They often rode speeder bikes or similar craft. Scouts were masterful at repairing and creating defenses. They were usually deployed, in the Engineer's Corps, as the last line of defense against key holdings such as factories, refineries, and planetary defense turrets.
Clone Commando - Alakazam - 21C Chaingun, 178B Commando Pistol, Reconnasaince Droid. The Clone Commando appeared first two years into the war. They were used to command small squads of clone troopers during combat, and also to attack large squads of droids with their powerful 21C Chainguns. They used their Recon Droids to survey enemy lines before giving their troops orders.
Clone Naval Commando - Blastoise - 178A Rifle, 178B Commando Pistol, Advanced Naval Droid, Advanced Battle Detonator. The Naval Commando was deployed on oceanic worlds. The heavy hitter when it came to naval combat, the CNC could take out a platoon of droids with a single round. They had been trained for the first two years of the war to perform such tasks, and were the reason many hard fought naval battles were won. There are many variants to the CNC. Among these, the SCUBA and SEAL stand out. They required even further training, being deployed over two years later than their standard CNC counterparts.
Clone Marine - Squirtle - 178A Rifle, 178A Pistol, Advanced Battle Detonator. The Clone Marine was the most common of naval soldiers. They recieved basic training, and were used as the primary attack force in sea-going battles. Slowly, they were replaced by more specific clones, such as the CNC, SCUBA, and SEAL. However, they always remained as the main naval force.
Clone Pilot - Larvitar - 178A Pistol, Engineer's Wrench, Time Bomb. Clone Pilots recieved special training to be prepared for space warfare. Usually fighting in Republic Air-and-Space Fighters - ASF Models 1-27C2, Pilots formed the major part of the Clone Starfighter Corps. Special pilot variants included those trained to fight in hostile planetary airspace and to act as bombers, as well as pilot the greatest QUASAR Gunships that were used to board enemy ships.
Clone Avenger - Hitmonchan - 178A Rifle, 178A Pistol, Rocket Launcher, Advanced Battle Detonator. The Clone Avengers were made for combat in enemy hangars and ships. Headed by a Clone QUASAR Commando, squads of Avengers would be piloted in to enemy hangars by QUASAR Gunships. The QUASAR Commando would then lead them on their specific mission, ranging form disabling key engines and systems to taking out ship turrets to rescuing political figures taken hostage. In extreme cases, a Galactican Knight was taken along to lead the effort. A Clone Avenger often died in the enemy hangar or ship. This was either because they failed there mission or they had succeeded, thus causing the enemy ship to be destroyed. The Avenger was considered the highest honor.
Clone Defender - Hitmonlee - 178A Rifle, 178A Pistol, 179A Rifle, 179B Commando Pistol. Clone Defenders often had dull and dreary work during space battles. They were the last line of defense in ships, and thus often did not meet much combat. However, when they did, it was intense. Trained to wield two rifles or pistols at the same time, Defenders were the second highest honor, next to the Avenger. Defenders were often used as guards for political figures and Clone Commandors, even out of battle and on planets.
Republic Guard
While techinally a contingent of the Republic Army, the Guard was directly connected with the Galactican Knights. They served the Knights at their side during direction of battle, and did the same to other political figures that required on-planet protection. The Guard were a great order that was selected from the various militairy acadmies across the galaxy. While the rest would become Sector or Planetary Police, the Guard were brought to Aocon and into an advanced training program. Three years later, they would graduate, regal red robes and powerful rifles adorning them. They used various weapons and were masters of many different martial art forms.
Variants of the Guard include the Senate and Council Guard and the Five Lord's Guard. Each were trained even more intensely. The Senate and Council Guard wore blue while the Five Lord's Guard wore gold and red.
Guard members are of all species [that are erect]. Thus, if they can stand up and wield a rifle, they can be excepted into the Guard.
Android Revolution Coalition
The Android Revolution Coalition is a conglomerate of many seperate guilds that had built their own droid armies to defend their ships. These droids varied greatly from guild to guild. When the Android Revolution Coalition Pact was signed, the standardized army was still under construction.
However, most armies consist of the standard battle droid, which is usually brown in color, and wields a blaster rifle, blaster pistol, and advanced detonator. There are various offshoots. Feel free to describe them differently, as they are different from battle to battle, army to army, squad to squad.
Droids do not resemble pokemon at all, and are said to resemble drawings in ancient temples of an erect race of non-pokemon creatures that are light skinned and hold strange red and white orbs of what is thought to be the force.
Sign-up
Type/Class: (Knight? Guard? Clone?)
Name: (If you are a clone, your name is a greek letter followed by a dash and a series of four numbers. If you are a commando, a C follows your name. A G is the same for commando.) (Guard members have any name, as do Knights. Droids are simply called "Unit _ _ _ _..." usually code is represented with three letters, though it grew as the Android Army became larger.)
Species: (Remember that you can only be a certain species for what you class/type you wish to be. I'm not sure about 4th Gen. If you wish to be a fourth gen pokemon, drop me a PM. As I don't know much of anything about D/P, though Erureido DOES appear as my avi.)
Brief back story: (Feel free to add new planets in name. Obviously, Clones were cloned, Knights were chosen in infancy, and Guard were from an academy. However, you can think up something more creative. This one should be a good 6+ sentence paragraph.)
Personality: (All clones are not the same. Some are more independend than others, while others might be more adept at serving, others more at eating, etc. The same applies to Knights and Guards.)
Apperance: (Remember that clones have variations, such as scars from falls, diseases, etc. This one should be 10+ sentences for Guard and Knights, and 5+ sentences for Clones, as it is sort of easy to describe them.)
Age: (Clones are only 3-10 at the beginning of the War, thanks to growth acceleration technology.)
Faction: (Obviously, clones are the Army, Guards can either be serving the Clone Commanders or the Knights or the Politicians. Knights are either Orthodox, supporting the practices of the former Knights, or Un-orthodox. Some consider this to be rebellious. Be descriptive. If you are a Senate Guard, don't just say Senate or Guard, say Senate Guard.)
Notes: Fourth Gen - PM me if you want to use them.
Also, I will be adding stuff as it pertains to the plot line - planets, new factions (Alliance to Preserve the Republic, Rythyn Lords, etc.)
Thirdly, I will be playing as Darth Zard, the Master Knight, and the leaders of each faction - the Alliance to Preserve the Republic, the Rythyn Lords, the Android Coalition Leaders. This is to ensure that the plot is moving along SOMEHOW.
The RP will start once there are ten good roleplayers that wish to participate. However, you may join at any time, as the war is always evolving. Eventually, I will allow those that sign-up to join other factions, such as the Android Revolution Coalition, and, eventually the Galactic Empire (That stems from the Galactic Republic) and the Alliance to Preserve the Republic, which eventually becomes the Alliance to Restore the Republic.
