[OPEN]

Who: Darth Imperius (Talwyn Kallig) and YOU
What: Imperius arrives at the Trench and wanders about
When: Month of May
Where: Various locations

Content Warning: Talk of unethical use of the Force, including mind probes.


Arrival
Talwyn wonders if this is what it feels like to be a Nautolan. Or a Mon Calamari. He flails about the ocean in squid form for a while, but once he washes ashore he's back to being a Sith pureblood. Yellow eyes take in his surroundings, fingers brushing long, wet hair away from his face. What happened to his hair tie?

"Khem? Andronikos? ...Xalek?"

He must be really desperate if he's asking for Xalek.

The Boardwalk
Once the unpleasantness with the food and drink passes, Talwyn makes his way along the boardwalk to explore. He brings along a cup of water, just so he can have something to occupy his hands, and that he can sip on without his hair turning green again.

He can also be heard murmuring the Sith code under his breath, in order to ground himself. "Peace is a lie, there is only passion. Through passion I gain strength..."

Odd End
Talwyn's wanderings eventually take him to the little shop of Odd End. He doesn't have any credits on him, but he can always window shop for now, and think about stuff he'd like to buy once he does get some money.

As he browses the aisles, he stops in front of a shelf containing crystals. Having something of an interest in crystals, even the non-kyber kind, he pauses to look, focusing on a few rather pretty purple ones.

In the months since he's arrived here, Ezra has taken to coming down the beach and boardwalk area at least a couple of the days Sleepers, like clock work, are most likely to wash up. Sometimes he's felt a tug from the Force towards someone in particular; others times he's simply headed towards whomever most seems to need a hand, settling in.

This month it appears his help is barely needed. But before he can extract himself completely from the activity around the boardwalk, he hears something familiar: the litany of the Sith Code.

He watches the person reciting it, for a few seconds. Then he mentally sighs to himself and heads over.

Here, Talwyn, have a nineteen year old in a light brown cloak in the style of the Jedi, with tunics and tabards to match, albeit in blues and greens and orange trim. And yes, the glint of a lightsaber on his belt.

"You're new, right?" he starts off, conversationally. "I'm Ezra Bridger."

He thinks he manages to wrangle his expression at that pronouncement to an overly polite neutral. Hopefully he's not leaking his knee jerk revulsion and disbelief at 'Darth Imperious' into the Force much, either. He's been working hard on that sort of restraint, since his blood changing to Paleblood made his empathic abilities kick into overdrive.

"Only familiar with the Darth part, as a title, sorry," he says, blandly, and not at all sorry. "Never heard of you in particular. But people do turn up here from different time periods. You could be from the distant past or the future, relative to my native time."
ezra_of_lothal: (I hear you by malagraphic)

[personal profile] ezra_of_lothal 2022-05-06 11:00 pm (UTC)(link)
It's really the 'Imperious' part, most of all, that he's suppressing a reaction to. Should he take that as a mission statement? If so, worrying.

But he'll keep being polite as long as Talwyn is. "...Yes. But only because there was a Darth Nox here for a while, and we discussed a little what was, for him, recent history. We decided that, from my perspective, that was probably, like...4000 years in the past?" he offers. "The era of the Old Republic and the Sith Empire."

Odd End

[personal profile] occultfan 2022-05-07 07:06 am (UTC)(link)
Ada for the most part figured that exploration was kind of a must in this world filled with curiosity and she had been going about it for at least the past hour at best. But soon she found herself looking in a store.

Crystals in her mind had some connection to the things that she loved. So her focus on that isn't too much of a surprise, but perhaps she was a little too engrossed in looking into them that she didn't noticed someone standing also focusing on them.

When she felt the bump she was quick to move.

"I'm sorry, I didn't realise you were there."

[personal profile] occultfan 2022-05-08 12:12 pm (UTC)(link)
She still bowed apologetically as she still was sorry regardless if they said to not worry about it or not, but that was about the extent of that.

The subject of crystals though she was interested in.

"So you had something like this at tome that you dug up? I know crystals can be used in a variety of ways, but I'm unsure if where you came from and where I came the uses would be the same or not."

odd end!

[personal profile] mehanizovati 2022-05-07 09:19 am (UTC)(link)
Before Hextech Viktor didn't have any particular interest in crystallography, a matter that only barely brushed against his engineering work. Before Jayce he didn't really have an appreciation for crystals either, in the more average 'wow, cool rock' sort of way. They were aesthetically pleasing, he supposed, but many things were and his passions were always cased in metal.

Now he maybe understands the appeal a little better, or it could be his nostalgia talking. Jayce could go on about any crystal he scrounged up, hex or no.

So when he's out, a bag hanging off one shoulder full of what looks like scrap metal pieces and whatever busted machines the shop offered, he tends to pause over the crystals. Only this time there is someone there, someone he thinks is probably a sleeper if only because he is distinctly not human, or at least not the kind of humans that live here, separate from all the sleeper nonsense.

Viktor stops by the shelf, leaning on his crutch to take the pressure off his leg, namely the one with the metal brace around the knee. Eh, he might as well ask. "I don't suppose you have any idea if these could have more practical purposes than decoration?"

"Lightsabers? Interesting. Is that a laser sword of some sort?" Viktor guesses, mostly off the name and the use of crystals. Specific crystals apparently? Maybe it's something of a more magical variety, he wouldn't be surprised.

"No, I imagine if they had magical properties they'd cost a little more." He picks one up, glancing it over more closely, a curious hum. "And not really pure enough for use otherwise, at a glance. In truth I have more luck with that sort of scrap at open air markets."

Boardwalk

[personal profile] warminded 2022-05-10 12:07 am (UTC)(link)
If Felwinter claims that he's not trying to eavesdrop, well, that would be a lie. He's been wandering the boardwalk for a while since he found himself here, listening in on snippets of conversation and occasionally stopping to talk to people who seem particularly intriguing.

This man caught his attention for... obvious reasons, really. Fel has never seen a being quite like him. He is wary, but not shy when he finally approaches, inclining his strange bird-like helm (an odd combination with the simple robes from his welcoming bag) in greeting.

"That's an interesting mantra," because honestly, he's not sure what else to call it. "Not one I'm familiar with."
warminded: (Default)

[personal profile] warminded 2022-05-10 10:11 pm (UTC)(link)
The explanation raises more questions than it answers. "Sith" he assumes to be some form of group, an organisation or order, if they follow such a code. Not unlike the Iron Lords with their Decree. But the code that the stranger recites promotes freedom rather than order. Power to uplift oneself rather than to protect those without. An acknowledgement that conflict is eternal rather than a hope of enforcing peace.

Felwinter is not sure that he agrees entirely, but he can hardly judge. He had broken the Iron Decree many times over. In his opinion, an oath is worth very little if it keeps him from doing what he believes is right.

"You value your freedom," he ventures. "And you believe that this... Force, is a tool for achieving it?"

It's as much as he can extrapolate from what he's heard. Some form of power, perhaps. But power takes many forms, and he's not entirely sure what to make of it.

The Boardwalk

[personal profile] opress 2022-05-14 08:05 pm (UTC)(link)
As had become a monthly ritual since his arrival to Trench, Savage had been down on the beach watching the waves toss squid out for their transformation. He had long ago given up hope that the one he waited for would come, but he had come anyway. It was a small gesture; he hadn't been one to learn that attachment was a detriment.

No Feral. Next month then.

He was lumbering along the Boardwalk to head back into town when his sensitive hearing picked up on words that he had heard from two different people and immediately turned to gaze for the source. His glowing golden eyes landed on a very interesting looking red-skinned alien and there was something about the male that stirred a wary curiosity.

"Another Sith," he growled. "You're like no Sith I ever heard tales of." Which meant very little given his limited exposure to Sith history.
opress: (Default)

[personal profile] opress 2022-05-14 08:25 pm (UTC)(link)
That was the look of someone who recognized his species, so that meant this one wasn't completely in the dark ages of history. Tavion from the future, now where did this Sith fit into the history of their galaxy.

He made a point of looking this being up and down, looking for weapons in particular. "Never heard of that Darth or Lord," he replied. "Have you heard of Darth Tyranus or Darth Sidious?" That would give him a gauge of time frame maybe.

Now there's something that Maul has ingrained into his mind but hasn't heard recited in a very long time. He doesn't have cause to recite the Sith Code too often here himself. But it immediately draw him like an iron filing to a magnet, seeking out the one in the crowd. He's easy enough to find as it is. The amount of non-humans in this city is shocking. It's worse than the smallest backwater spaceport Maul has ever been to in his life.

He finishes the next few lines himself in his soft, low, velvet-smooth voice as he draws down his hood, revealing his Zabrak features and his Sith yellow eyes. "....Through strength, I gain power. Through power, I gain victory."

[personal profile] survivalthroughhate 2022-06-24 04:52 am (UTC)(link)
Maul gives a nod towards the other Sith as he finishes the oath. For him, the chains have always been the easy part to break. It's what goes on in his own mind that's harder to deal with. He stays silent for a moment as he stares at Talwyn with unblinking eyes. He doesn't recognize this Sith's species. It's not entirely surprising, it's not like Maul has every single one of the millions of species in the galaxy memorized, but it's still true he's never seen anyone who looks quite like this Sith.

"I am Darth Maul," he says finally by way of introduction. He's not interested in picking a fight. Most of the time he's alright with those that end up in the city from his galaxy, although there is that ten percent or so that immediately want to make him jump into a fight.
