"'Someone special'?!" *This bit had eluded her, and it was also the most interesting. Deciding to drop her pretense, she took up her physical form. Bare feet stepped out from a nearby flower bush, revealing a small blond girl with a white dress and a crown of flowers. Her hands were folded behind her back and her mouth was parted in a grin.* "What are they like? I mean, if it were me, I'd love any flower, but not everyone's the same." *She pouted.* "I wish they were... But then I guess I wouldn't get to have as many flowers as I do, so maybe not."

*Contrary to what he believed, Chrys was not at all visible; she was, as described above, hidden somewhere in her realm, her voice manifesting from the flowers. Not hidden from fear, but out of curiosity and a bit of playfulness. Deciding to remain hidden, she giggled at his question and answered,* "Yep! All mine, from all across the galaxy! Any flower you can think of? I probably have it. Complete with the right environments to nurture them! Oh, you might want to be careful, since you're just a mortal and some of those might kill you."

*Not many people came to visit the Temple of the Whills as of late, so the event came as a pleasant surprise to little Chrys. There had been another who came to the planet itself recently, but he didn't even come say "hi!" It had disappointed her, but he looked busy, so she let it go.
That didn't stop her from watching the newcomer as he appeared in space and made his way to the planet. She had read his intent, already knowing he was approaching the Temple, more specifically her domain! Although he had a strange intent... Possessed by a whim, she made herself hidden among her flowers, observing undetected. He seemed to be enjoying himself, something she quite appreciated, but still something piqued her curiosity.*
"You came to visit the Temple of the Whills just to take pictures of the flowers?" *The words came from everywhere at once, seemingly through the plants themselves.* "And with such an antiquated device too... I didn't know film even existed in our galaxy. And I know a lot of things!"

*Oh no, someone was attempting to tamper with the setting... Not that she felt any sense of surprise whatsoever. Nor was she affected; mortal drugs held no power over her, after all! She debated doing something about it for the benefit of those others present... then decided she'd let them deal with it in stride. Not her business to be dictating what others would be feeling, she was just here to observe.*

*Chrys had contributed her own embellishments to the hall in the form of the finest plants and flowers to serve as decoration, taken straight from her own garden upon Tython. She wanted this Sithies to be the prettiest event in its history, if nothing else. She lamented that she had only been a mere thought during all the previous years of the event, but she had this event now to make up for it! Not that she was certain anyone would think much of the small, blond, barefoot girl in the white dress and a flower crown... but she did so enjoy subverting expectations.*

I think it'd be interesting to post a short interaction between the writer and their chosen character, as the two discuss the character's development, or lack there of, as time progressed in the real world. That's not a bad idea! I think we could make it part of the Testimonial thread if people want to do that, or they can make a more simple personal account. (Somewhat related, might as well plug the Final Sithies here as a thing people can have fun with to celebrate ten years as well!)

Thank you Loki for starting the original thread, and to everyone else who pitched in thoughts and ideas! I know I posted there already, but I thought a new thread would be better for visibility and hopefully get some more eyes and thoughts on this! So, JvS is over ten years old, and we gotta do something to celebrate! Here are the two ideas that gathered the most traction: 1. Testimonials - A place for members, old and new, to post about their time on JvS and what the site and its community means to them. An individual board was suggested, though I personally think a single thread would better suffice, one we could sticky for all to see! 2. A Big 1.0-style Free-For-All RP - The bigger and more popular suggestion. We would essentially roll back to how things were in the Facebook days, where the rules were next-to-nonexistent, people had tons of powers and many, many ships, and godmodding was an everyday occurrence. In this environment, it would all be in good fun, a sort of way to let loose and celebrate how far we've come. My idea was to even make its own world for it, named "Faysbuhk." It got at least one groan... but I still like it. There wouldn't necessarily be a goal or a timeframe, and it wouldn't necessarily have to be all about fighting, either, it would just be one big celebration that also happens to throw out all the rules and be ridiculously silly! I'd be more than willing to put these things together and would like to hear more thoughts! Any ideas or suggestions are welcome, and hopefully we can roll these out soon! More so for the second one, if I get some time to think I might just go ahead and put a Testimonials thread somewhere. Thank you for reading, and thank you for being a part of JvS! 🌹

*Little Chrys ventured out into space out of her own curiosity. While the vast expanse of stars is pretty and makes one contemplate existence, Chrys soon found its lack of floral life boring, and thus returned to her flower garden where she could more comfortably watch over the mortals of the galaxy.*

October's almost over but that doesn't mean it's too late to plan things here! I've read through this and I like the ideas of having Testimonials as well as one big 1.0-style RP. For the Testimonials, I'm thinking maybe not a whole forum for it, but a single thread everyone can reply to and browse? I love the idea but I do think we already have a lot of forums on the main index. For the 1.0-style RP... Instead of picking a location or two... why not an entirely new location just for the event? I'll talk this over but I want to see what you guys think. Just make a new planet just for the RP and, when all the fun's done, archive it! It would have all the places needed, such as orbit and terrain, maybe a city and space station... I know 1.0 planets were just a single thread but that doesn't mean we can't have multiple threads just while using a 1.0 mindset! I even have a name idea... "Faysbuhk." Let me know what you guys think!

Not sure if this is the right place but I'm too lazy to look any further. I'd like a a planetary thread unarchived please. Formerly controlled by Clan Vhett usergroup. Planet: Algara II Region: Mid Rim Link to Planet: boards.jedivsith.com/board/219/algara-iiAddedReason: There was an ongoing storyline that was put on hold due to some of the RPers being away from the site. That storyline has been reactivated and several of the threads in that planetary forum are central to that storyline. Tauve, Algraine, and the open orbit at the minimum so I though the whole thing may as well be unacrhived. I think its only open terrain that wasn't necessary. Request granted! Let me know if anything's missing. Happy RPing!

Making a temporary planet is a large undertaking, and unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be enough interest in it at the moment for us to grant this request. However, we'll check back in a bit, and if enough people seem seriously interested enough, we'll take it into consideration!

Gonna make this a little more visible to hopefully generate the most response. And don't worry, we're still here too, keeping a watchful eye!

Okay, here's what I did: I can manage groups, so I approved those wanting to join the Mandalorian Empire and The Mandalorians groups. With Clan Vhett, though, I'm going to talk about it with the other Whills a bit, since I think that one might have some history beyond just being a group for the Vhetts in general... I mean, times change, sure! But I don't wanna make a mistake, even if it doesn't hurt anything...
Hmm... do you guys—I mean, all the Mandalorian writers—think you need both the Mandalorian Empire and The Mandalorians groups? I'm not really sure if these are supposed to be the same thing or not, and since all of the leaders aren't active anymore, maybe you could pick one of the groups and find new usergroup leaders just so people can get approved? I'll talk this over as well!

An upscale enterprise controlled and funded by Kolga the Hutt, the Five Brothers Resort offers a recreational escape to all members of the galactic community, so long as they don't start trouble. The resort offers refreshment, sport, and gambling for anyone who wishes to escape the galaxy at large and enjoy the very finest Hutt-space has to offer.
