*Anven began to walk forward at a quick pace as he saw to his disappointment his lightsaber miss his intended target as the speeder bike was brought down by another means. He kept his eye on the descending speeder bike even as he brought his red lightsaber back to him and catching it in his right hand it was quite clear to him that whomever was piloting that speeder bike clearly wanted the girl for some reason but Anven had already intended to keep the girl from being taken unwillingly. This meant if he had to fight off everyone that came towards her even the numerous presences that he could feel arriving on the other side of the alley then he would do just that even if it meant the death of him.
With his goal clear in mind Anven never broke his stride as he quickly made his way towards the speeder that the girl was near all the while keeping an eye on the speeder bike waiting for the man on it to make his next move. He did not have to wait long for soon after being brought down the man on the speeder bike took off once again rising high above the buildings. Anven immediately saw the speeder bike pilot was a persistent one for he was brining up his blaster pistol once again to take some more shots at the speeder.
It was right then that Anven felt the girl was in great peril and it didn't take Anven very long to figure out why. Before he even knew it he was moving into action as he dashed the last few paces towards the speeder and come sliding to a stop near the girl and the other one who was hiding behind the speeder. In that instant Anven quickly deflected the few blaster bolts that was aimed in the girl's direction saving not only her but her little friend as well from being shot to death. Sadly to his surprise it seemed he found out to late that the girl was but a distraction likely meant for the other cloaked man who she had chosen to go with for he saw more blaster bolts being fire but this time at the speeder itself while he was busy defending the girls.
This mysterious man was proving to be a nuisance and so Anven began to concentrate as he stood in a defensive stance. He was readying himself for when the man would likely come back for another pass for he had an idea that might just knock him out of the sky and hopefully send him falling to his death. That remained to be seen since it seemed Anven was having a bad day for his little tricks since he so disastrously missed cutting the man down with his lightsaber even as he was having speeder bike troubles. He could only hope that things might look up for him and that this wasn't the force telling him that bad things were to come his way.*

From where Anven stood across the street from the alley he had a good view of what was going on down there and so it was clear to him what the girl's choice had been. She had decided to go with the strange cloaked man that Anven was still trying to remember where he had seen before though as soon as the girl made her choice the cloaked man wasted no time in making his way out of the alley. no sooner after he started moving the alley had erupted into violent combat once again though now it was all aimed at a man on the rooftops.
Anven had no interest in what was going on inside the alley for the girl was the one that had called out for help and so he was going to make sure she got away safely and so he began to watch the cloaked man closely which was no difficult task since he came out at the end Anven was on so all he had to do was follow the man with his eyes barely even turning his head. He watched the cloaked man cross the nearly abandoned street to a speeder that was parked there which at this point Anven did turn his head to watch the man go to climb into it. So far it seemed the girl was on her way to safety as it seemed not many had followed the cloaked man and her out of the alley though Anven did sense two presences in the force near by though he didn't know where they may be hiding.
Anven pushed off the wall he was leaning against in preparation to follow the girl and the one she had chosen to go with until he heard sounds overhead what sounded like a Speeder bike flying overhead and so he looked up to see who or what was flying overhead only to see blaster bolts come from the one that was flying overhead. Anven quickly followed the blaster bolts with his eyes and saw they were fired at the speeder that the cloaked man was going to take which made him believe that whoever was on that speeder bike may also have an interest in the girl. Knowing that a fight would likely be inevitable now Anven let go of his use of force stealth to finally reveal his presence in the force as he began to open himself fully to it in preparation for the coming battle. He then took out one of his single bladed lightsabers and ignited its crimson blade and then threw the lightsaber guided by the force into the man's path in an attempt to either knock the man off his speeder bike and disable the bike or to cut down both him and possibly the speeder bike though he was aiming more for the quick kill in cutting the man down.

Anven continued to lean against the wall as he watched as events in the alley got all the more tense with everyone going from fighting to now arguing about who the girl should go with again. It was all quite entertaining as more and more tried to convince the girl to go with them and at this rate Anven thought she was going to have another mental break down with so many people trying to convince her to go with them.
He had at first thought about intervening when the fighting had started but before he could someone else was already doing so and once again conversation started it seemed unlikely that this situation was going to be resolved anytime soon. It seemed he just might get to have some fun after all and so he began to size up his potential adversaries, there fist off was the man with the red lightsaber and crimson robes whom Anven swore he knew from somewhere then there was the merry little gathering around a man as far as he could tell that was equipped with a pistol, the girl who had charged into the alley with rifle in hand and a droid for backup, a mandalorian which would be a huge problem for he seemed fully armoured and armed. These seemed like the biggest problematic figures at the moment though the newly arrived Republic Solider was not one to be dismissed and neither were the others gathered near the entrance of the alley.
Anven was working through all that he took in through the force and with his eyes trying to be sure not to miss a single detail even though for now it seemed the droid blocked his way into the alley and so he may have to wait things out for a bit longer. With a sigh Anven shifted his weight from one foot to the other and crossed his arms likely now showing that he was wearing his crimson Jensaarai armour beneath the old cloak. He then looked one way then the other to see if anyone else was coming to join the party though all he saw was a man who was standing just a few feet away from him and was being approached by a Duro. If the man was looking Anven's way when he noticed him Anven would just give a short nod in a kind of greeting to the other man and then would go back to watching the others in the alley.

Anven had been slowly walking down the street until he was across the street from the alley and there he leaned against a wall and watched what was going on since there seemed to have been a bit of a crowd gathering to see well at least three others. Things began to change quickly as he stood there watching, it wash't long before a girl and a robot come charging through everyone into the alley but right after that things seemed to go to hell. The girl he assumed let out a strong force blast or repose to send things flying everywhere though luckily he was far enough away to not be affected by it and then everyone was at each other's throats. It was a grand standoff that soon came to an end when one made a grab for the girl and then shots were being fired course by now any commoners who might had been casually walking by would have scattered leaving just those who found interest in the situation that being him who was leaning against a wall across the street hidden by his cloak, three others looking around the corner of the alley, the ones who had ran ion the alley and various others he could feel hiding in the shadows though where he knew not. Still Anven just observed as things began to heat up and continued to hide his presence in the force so no force users would notice his abilities as a force sensitive but he kept his awareness up as things just might get out of control fast.

As Anven wandered the streets of the refugee sector it began to become all the more obvious that the cry for help had reached the ears of many. He could feel through the force that there was beginning to be a gathering of people around the presence of the one who had called out through the force. He too began to make his way in that direction to see what has happened so far though as he began to get closer he started to fall into an old trick called force stealth where he began to conceal his force presence in order to hide from other force sensitives. As he began to draw closer to where he could feel several presences one being the girl who had called out through the force he only being able to recognize it from the call he had felt. It appeared the one that called for help was likely down an alley and from the looks of it there were already people staring down it though whether it was due to the call for help or from the commotion he faintly heard coming from that direction he did not know. Anven kept to the shadows as he watched from a distance keeping an eye on what was going on he just hoped he didn't come off as to suspicious as he slowly wandered along the edges of the street among the few others who passed by. Sadly what might work against him was that he was wearing a big cloak that hid what he looked like and covered his face beneath a hood but then again he just might blend in quite nicely with the shady folks of the refugee sector.

<<Please.. Someone.. Anyone.. I need help.>>
<<I'm on Nar Shaddaa. My name is Valerie. I'm.. I'm under attack. Please.. help me.>>
================
::There is a very large bounty on the capture of a young girl in the Refugee Sector of Nar Shaddaa. I am willing to share the bounty that has been offered me, in exchange for assistance bringing her in. Be warned: the little brat seems to have Jedi powers. Comm back to arrange a meeting. Ambuscade, out.::
It had been some time since Anven's comm had seen any such use in the way of work since he usually did work as a mercenary when he had nothing better to do that some times included on the rare occasion bounty hunting. Strangely that was not the only thing that was going off for in his head there was a sense of urgency a cry for help and it was in the same place as the comm message had originated from. This had sparked his attention and so here he now found himself walking among the residents of the refugee sector cloaked in his large brown weather worn cloak with the hood up hiding his face. Beneath his cloak hid his old scarred Jensaari armour and his lightsabers which he was starting to think it would be quite likely that he would be needing them for he felt a good amount of malice and ill intent in the air and on top of that there were darksiders about. For now Anven kept back from the growing tension in the force that was surely the source of the cry for help he had felt through the force because he sensed there were already others close by likely tending to the one who had called out. There was also the other who had spoken on an open comm channel that has yet to show himself at least from what Anven knew and so he wasn't going to pick sides just yet and would just observe the conflict until he felt it was time to show himself.

Learning how duelling works on JvS is a pretty simple thing and there are many people around who can walk you through it. Probably everyone who has said something so far to you has likely been through a duel or some kind of fight either In Character or in the Galactic Battle Arena. I think Andor used to be a judge or something in the GBA so he might be a good person to talk to.
For the most part all you really need to do is describe clearly what your character does in reaction to who ever you may be fighting while making sure not to call hits and honestly if you can reply to everything in just a few sentences or prefer to write long paragraphs it really doesn't matter. I don't know to many people who are picky about who they duel with so you should be good either way. Anyway that's about all I can think of saying on that and as I said before there are plenty of people who can help you develop your fighting abilities here on JvS and just remember fighting is awesome. XD

Hey welcome to JvS!
I think your profile looks cool very interesting and mysterious character with the whole not liking to take the helmet off. Only thing I can think of adding is perhaps a personal spaceship unless you had intentionally not put or I was dumb enough to miss it (am on my IPod so not a very clear view of the profile). Anyway I wish you the best of luck in your mercenary work and if you need anything just feel free to ask.

It looks like we have two Sith and two neutral force users. What do you guys have in mind? Also where do the Jensaarai stand in the Cold War Anven? I do have something in mind that involves some subterfuge, explosions, stealing something and death for numerous NPCs. Honestly I haven't been around much to anything about the cold war or where the Jensaarai are though from what I can see when I go looking around the boards the Jensaarai seem to be pretty much non-existent around JvS once again. I haven't heard anything from anyone in months and probably the only person who was in the Jensaarai that might still be around other than me is Crystaal. I will admit I believe there is no longer a Jensaarai Order and likely will be a long time before there might be another since every time one starts it just dies again.
Anyway aside from that explosions sound fun and death to many a NPC sounds all the more fun.

Anven continued to follow the Elder silence descending upon them once again as they walked which made Anven begin to wonder if it was something of great importance if the Elder needed some time to gather his thoughts on it. Course in the end the Elder seemed to know what he must have wanted to know which wouldn’t be too surprising and so Anven continued on in silence slightly wondering if his way of thinking was that predictable.
As Anven was questioning his own way of thinking for a moment the Elder suddenly brought up a new question for Anven to think about. It was an obvious question one that was likely lingering at the edges of both of their minds.
“Well I had admitted already that I hope some kind of power or weapon is inside but to be honest if it were my children I was thinking about I would likely leave some more important than that. I would have left behind a source of knowledge and technology to help them survive the coming future to make it one where they could rebuild and hopefully live in peace.”

Anven walked in silence as he followed the Elder making their way into the rocky terrain as they searched for the vault that he supposed lay somewhere within the rocks of this place. As they made their way forward the Elder came to a stop atop a rock and so Anven too stopped and waited for the Elder to finish looking around. It was then that the Elder began to speak of what sounded to Anven to be about the Elder’s good old days back when he was a younger man course Anven hadn’t expected to hear the Elder say it was he was three thousand years ago. Anven had always knew the Elder was old but only now did he begin to grasp just how old he truly was.
After dropping the news on Anven that he was over three thousand years old as casually as ever the Elder began walking again and Anven still ever silent followed along behind him. It seemed at first that was going to be the end of the small break in silence that had descended upon them as they had began their second day into their journey as it seemed the Elder was going into silent thought mode while Anven was likely to begin staring off into space again, but then the Elder spoke up once more and Anven just stared at him for a moment before saying speaking up.
"What is it you wish to ask?"

Anven stood silent for a moment as he took in the Elder's words not out of questioning whether to give his word or not but because he wondered what sort of knowledge could possibly be in there that the R'Crurak might not be ready for but he soon began to nod slowly agreeing to the Elder's request.
"Of course you have my word."
Then as the two of them started to walk again heading towards the rocks ahead of them Anven smiled a little as he placed his helmet back on his head.
"Course I think I could take an old man in a little disagreement."
Anven chuckled as he spoke up in response to the Elder's warning his words meant in jest not as some insult towards the Elder or his skills as a fighter as he was sure the Elder would more than likely give him a butt kicking he would not likely forget for a looong time more from the sores and bruises he would likely sustain in such a confrontation than anything. In truth Anven thought highly of the Elder's capability as a fighter more so from his recent experiences fighting along side him which showed that this old man could still dish out quite a beating as well as take one hell of a beating he was also sure whatever the Elder's decision it would be the best one for the whole clan and not out of some greed for power.

Anven stopped alongside the Elder atop a sand dune and looked out at what lay beyond seeing more rocky terrain ahead of them he assumed this was the scared land the Elder had spoken of. Just seeing it brought lingering thoughts of what may be hidden within the vault and of course when weapons came to mind Anven caught himself and stopped his thoughts from wandering any further for as the Elder had said he had to learn to temper his liking for violence.
"I see your point now on "tempering" my thirst for violence, I guess old habits die hard and my days as a mercenary kind of did make me a bit ... violent."
Anven listened in on the Elder's explanation on what just this sacrifice was supposed to be knowing it was an important part of this quest they were on and of all things the last he would want to do would be to offend the Kumumgah spirits and of course save himself a beating from the Elder later for being stupid and ignorant. Once the Elder had finished speaking Anven did as he was instructed taking off his helmet before taking his little water container from his belt and began to drink in big gulps for this would likely be his last chance for a while before dumping the rest out onto the sand. He continued by then dumping the water out of the container the Elder had tossed to him giving all the water he had to the sands for the Kumumgah spirits.
"Honestly I will admit it wouldn't be so bad if all we found were just books, if anything the knowledge they could hold would greatly benefit the clan."

Anven walked along beside the Elder in silence that lasted for nearly an hour the whole time Anven pretty much walked silently with a clear mind since he had stopped wondering what was going to be in the vault some time ago and just kinda of started to enjoy the peace and quiet. Course When the Elder spoke up again Anven assumed he must of gotten a different impression for Anven's silence for he could hear the genuine concern in the Elder's voice.
"No nothing is wrong was just kind of enjoying the silence."
As they continued walking Anven would snatch the water container out of the air as the Elder tossed it over to him and would let out a chuckle at the Elder's comment on cheering up.
"Right I am just so down right now as we are about to bust open an ancient vault that could possibly hold great wonders and if we are lucky some new toys to blow stuff up with."
The sarcasm in Anven's voice clearly showed he was quite the opposite of being down for he was actually excited to see what wonders lay behind the old Kumumgah vault and of course he was hoping it was some kind of super awesome weapon. Though what the Elder said next caught Anven a bit by surprise for he had no idea what the Elder meant by a sacrifice to the suns though he sort of assumed that meant killing of some kind of beast or maybe leaving something valuable behind. Having no idea what the sacrifice actually meant and so he thought he just spit it out and ask the Elder the dumb question anyway since he probably should of known by now something like this having been with the R'Crurak clan for some time now and was likely to hear about it later for missing possibly not knowing something that was likely important to the Tusken culture ... at least he assumed as much.
"What exactly is a sacrifice the Suns?"

Anven who was having wonderful dreams of blow stuff up was suddenly woken by the sound of sand falling upon him and falling off his armor, he at first opened one eye to see what was going on only to see a staff being swung at him by then he got the idea that it was time to get up. He at first slowly picked himself up off the ground brushing the remaining sand off of him and even took off his helmet and gave it a good shake to free it of sand then placed the helmet back upon his head. It was quite obvious a good nights sleep had done the Elder some good since the chipper mood he was in was evident not only in how he talked but Anven could feel it through the force as well ... The Elder was clearly happy about something.
Seeing the Elder had already take care of most things hang grabbed the water and storing away his swoop while Anven was being slow as usual in the morning he continued on in a unhurried fashion grabbing the rat of supplies from the swoop and grabbing a few essentials from the bags on his swoop and attaching them to his utility belt before following after the Elder a little ways behind him. Anven did not question the Elder's decision to leave the swoop behind knowing in a sense the Tuskens held their sacred grounds in high regard and so he did not want to offend them he just hoped wearing his armor wouldn't go against some old tradition of theirs when entering scared ground. Course at least so far hearing no complaint from the Elder Anven just continued after the old man slowly beginning to pick up pace as he began to fully awaken from his sleepiness eventually coming to walk alongside the Elder quietly following him out into what seemed like the middle of nowhere in the vast Dune Sea.
