New Republic Natural Disaster Thread

Okay, working on an idea for a natural disaster style thread in the NR. Leaning towards Brevost. A quick search says this should be the first post ever to mention it. There's nothing on wookieepedia as of yet. I haven't decided what exactly will be the cause of the natural disaster, but I want it to be planet threatening. Evacuations and what not. I've spoken to Pryngles about Jedi involvement. I'm assuming that MedStar would send help to deal with evac and refugees. Obviously CDF-NR is going to be there.

Really it's just a small story to add to what's happening in the New Republic, and to provide a small little story after orphans and refugees and the like. This isn't galaxy shaking, nor is it big storyline oriented. Literally just a small little thing I decided to do.

First post will be up either later tonight or tomorrow, in traditional Mir-speak.

I'll pull Damus out of mothballs as well for this for the Medstar part.

Whatever planet I chose, we were aiming for it to be RDF's Commander, Silvers' homeplanet.

So I think RDF elements will be there.

Glad you like it.

For whoever is actually interested in this, I should hopefully have the next post up that gets us to global crisis up sometime late Sunday.

So it might have been early monday, but it's up. If you're interested in RPing pretty much whatever, pretty much go ahead. The entire planet has pretty much been completely ravaged and it's going to be a few years before people can really live there. The Jedi have arrived and are starting relief efforts, I'm going to post Derek Muir meeting up with the NR ground commander.

In an interesting twist of fate, part of my Army stuff this weekend was working in the OEM/EOC in Brooklyn, which is the centralized command point for relief efforts and pretty much everything Hurricane Sandy related in NYC. That gave me a unique perspective, almost out of a movie, that I'm going to try to bring here. Also, I got to see and help out the relief efforts throughout Brooklyn and the Rockaways, and work at Floyd Bennett Field.

Lucky for real life, NYC is not going to get Garrett Granth showing up with a psychopathic philosopher's circus.

Brevost is not so lucky.

So we can have *more* "earth"quakes and groundquakes and whatnot, right? I mean, now that you are all down here on this world, can we still have some extra disasters, please?

Because what Bevost needs now is a Verneshot, and - I can't stress this enough - not in the pornographic sense.

Think of it! A chunk of a continent gone, and launched towards another continent as though it were an extinction-level asteroid.

It's like if Deep Impact was a movie about suicide!

Of course, people will say that the force-users "never saw it coming," but we can always say "oh, so thats what the visions meant!" later.

Or maybe the people ON Brevost could work together to prevent it from destroying the planet? Wouldn't that be cool?

There would be plenty of ethical dilemnas for the Sardonic Circus to resolve, heroism required - the enemies would be engineering, famine, disease - not some badguy we all have to kill.

What do you all think?

Can I bring a Senator from the Senate to evalute and see the situation so he can bring some help from his own planet? Money, food and men?

Who will rescue that kid first? Will it be Garrett's insane band of circus freaks? A wayward Jedi Agricorpsman? A sith warrior? A Jade Empire patriot? An actual emergency medical technician?

TUNE IN NEXT TIME TO FIND OUT!

Also, I would blow up the planet or render it uninhabitable, if I thought I'd get approval.

Two things.

Mirr, I can bring some T.F. aid for the people of Bevrost free of course. Should I?

Nichalus, can Remeners meet with Damus after all? :-)

This man is an idealist, a true helper and he will not only serve as an official but will help with his hands. It is one of the things I am chaging with T.F. people. Mark he might be the next Viceroy. I promised changes guys and there you have it, by small steps.

Garrett needs a pilot. If you're a pilot who fancies himself/herself capable of flying a speeder through the colliding waveforms of a volcano and tsunami, but think you could also manage to pilot a luxury yacht through galactic-climactic space battles, then YOU NEED TO BE THE GUY IN MY NEXT POST!

I can totally change the gender/species of whoever you are! But rest assured you will be important (Garrett always needs the BEST pilots) and also somewhat of an NPC! (I always speak for the pilot when the pilot would naturally say "OMFG that's stupid crazy to fly through that")

Good thing your guy was a good pilot, Mir.

Also he seems to be discussing philosophy pretty well. He'll fit right in, I'm sure.
