hahahhaa, thats hilarious. You made him a sneaky pirate and he sneaks out of your "confines" to play. When characters come to life, eh? XD

D'awww! Thats wonderful news, Eric! Congratulations! Happy Birthday and enjoy yourself!. You deserve some time off anyway!

I am 100% totally down for this. I mean, the letter and some things he says kinda hints towards it. Headcanons abound! Seriously though, /SIGNED.

I get to the point in the Shrine where Arcann escapes and the Sith Empire shows up. Lana says some stuff and I choose the first dialogue option, "THey could be useful" and each and every time I get kicked from the game.... Anyone else having this issue or is it just me?

I always liked the idea of "force ghosts" as it were since the movies. My apologies on the confusion, Annyala is the mother of all the Rand sisters. I knew i should have gone over it again. I'm glad you enjoyed though!

oooooo. I'm loving this. I love your back stories of Ru and Nat and Nik so far. Can't wait to read more!

Comments and Replies Now for a story! Its also posted in my thread if any of you want a bit less confusion.. Title: What The Force Binds Together... Prompt: Inheritance Character: Taya Rand (JK) Annyala Rand (Mother) Setting: Meditation Chambers in Senate Tower on Coruscant set after her Nightmares/Dreams post. Spoilers: Jedi Knight Story Missions from Tython and Coruscant, mentioned only.

Comments and Replies:

@Striges: DOH! >_< You're right, i've read so many posts on here i've become confuzzled! My apologies to both you and Bright! There is plenty more to come with the Rand sisters. And the spoilers will start tapering off soon btw. @BrightEphemera: I didn't read all of your post on Wynston...once i realized it was IA stuff but what i did read i loved it!

Alrighty, here goes comments and replies! I'm trying to catch up on this! Now for another prompt.. which also happens to pertain to Bound By Ties of Blood and Oath! Spoiler Note: There are spoilers for the Jedi Knight Story missions on Tython. As well as some violence and implied gore. Title: Jedi Knight Excerpt 1: Some Bonds Cannot Be Severed Prompt: Dreams and Nightmares*-I will admit this is more of a....vision than a Nightmare...but it fits i think. Characters: Taya Rand (JK) EDIT: I just realized i didn't place where this falls in the timeline of my characters. If you've been following my thread, its posted there. however, on here, this falls After Interesting Surprise and long before Celebrations!

@Striges: Hahaha, I had a bit of fun with the armor bit in my story. I've never actually seen Aric as a complete jerk. Just one who has had to deal with one too many rookies. I served in the military so Nataliea's reaction to him and her paitence stems from my own experiences. hahaha there is always someone in any job that you'd love to mouth off too. Also, love your story! Poor little Cathar. Kothe seems a very interesting jedi master. Like he's getting tired of it almost but still has his heart in the right place. *Hugs T'Kaleni*

Okay, I could not resist! I love the prompts! Working on more as ideas pop into my head. Like this one! which happened to fit perfectly in the story i have posted in the Bound by ties of Blood and Oath thread i started. I have so many excerpts written that i have found i want to share with you all. Prompt: Gifts Characters: Nataliea Rand (Trooper) and Aric Jorgan Summary:Rough Days happen and sometimes good things come from those you least expect. Note: THis takes place BEFORE my celebrations piece...way before it. Spoilers: Mentioned Prologue spoilers for Trooper story. Trooper Excerpt 2 PT 2: Interesting Surprise

Since I have little excerpts that dont quite fit prompts, I made a thread for my characters! I figured I'd help out with the indexing and finding and stuff like that. Title: Bound By Ties of Blood and Oath Link: http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=788412 Author: CapnJayde Class: Ensemble piece though it will have several excerpts that only show one particular character at a time. As of now that is Nataliea Rand (Republic Trooper), Jayde Lynn Rand (Smuggler) (i'll edit this when the other sister comes up!) Blurb:

My heart was literally aching for Corso. He's such a teddy bear. He's one of my favorite companions. I really like how you've put so much more to him. He's great ingame already but with Bella....ooh he's a keeper.

Daww....the warm feels. Thank you! I have several bits i've written already...hahaha so i'll post more of Nataliea and her sisters. @alaurin: I'll be sure to keep in mind what you need for the indexing. You're stories are awesome by the way. @bright_ephemera: Nataliea is very compassionate...but as a Trooper she's very professional. something i decided for Aric to find out as time goes on. There will be more! I have several prompts i picked out! @striges: I wanted something that really pushed her to join the Republic Military. That's Ezekiel. plus I wanted there to be a wee one in the mix of Nataliea and her sisters. (more on those to come! ) I'm grinning from ear to ear atm. Teehee. The feels!

The Guild is called Imperial Oath. Its empire side atm. Still trying to get people with Republic characters to make a Republic guild. If you want to join, just pm one of us, (I'm Atayla ingame) Snakwarlord is the same and Slagator has posted his ingame name as well. Also you can register at ImperialOath.enjin.com.

So after reading so many of these great awesome stories. (i'm stil not close to being even halfway through the 500+ pages. ) I decided I would brave these waters. Please bear with me as i'm a bit new to this and I am not entirely sure of all the rules. (aside from the forums ones) If i mucked something up let me know please. This was a tid bit i had running around my head for the longest time when i first wrote excerpts for my trooper. Hope you all like it. Prompt: Celebrations (i know its not the current one, sorry! first timer here. ) Characters: Nataliea Rand (Trooper) Perspective Character: Aric Jorgan Summary: Despite all the galaxy is throwing at them, a brief moment of levity to make a young one smile is sometimes all it takes to make the most hardened warriors appreciate the little things. Spoiler warning: There are slight mentioned spoilers for the trooper storyline. It might be a bit long. Sorry in advanced.

Oh wow! Just recently stumbled on to this community of fan fiction. Just wow! Just wanted to drop a line and say you guys are great. Love reading all these. I'm think i might just put up one of the little drabbles i've written. You guys are really awesome bringing these characters to life.

Sweet!. All right, we can get the Empire side guild set up. I'll need to get an imperial started for this server. (would have done it yesterday but i ended up moving matresses and boxsprings...ugh. ) If anyone has rep chars on this server and would like to get a Rep side guild set up too thats cool. I'll be online ingame in about 20 minutes.

hahaha. I've recently restarted my characters as well. Like i said in the OP, anyone of any level...even lvl 1. to be honest none of my characters are leveled up. I got tired of being in guilds that exclusively played to the endgame or were full of jerks. Most of my characters on this server are republic but i have no problem making an imperial character to get the guild started, however all sides are welcome. As for the name of the guild...haha i haven't even thought about that yet. Just let me know when you guys are online, we'll get a time date set up and create the guild.

Just finished your last installment here. Love this story! Please, can we haz some moar?. Great work. Keep it going.

Just stumbled on to this little forum community of fan fiction, started reading your story and i have to say, i'm loving it! This is a great story and i love how you are mixing the class and general stories together like this. AWESOME. Seriously, you should get a grammy for this

That was just adorable. Loved it!

That was great! Loved reading them with my coffee. Cheers!

Hey all, All right so we now have the Imperial Oath set up on the Empire side. If you're looking to still join, you're more than welcome. For those with Republic Characters, who'd like a guild just pm me in game (rep trooper: Nataliea) or even (Bounty Hunter: Atayla) and we'll go about getting the Republic Oath set up. Everyone has their preferences, there are some who only play Imperial, some who only play Republic, more than fine with me as I play both. You can also still reply here or pm me here as well. Happy Gaming.
