...and whatever other of the roughly 10,000 other species are represented here.
Hi. =D
I'm Zach, Xach, X, Vampy, Fang, Xakarus, whichever you prefer, I've been called them all and more.
I've been looking for a good SW RP for quite awhile now and stumbled upon this one... looks pretty good to me.
I will say, if it means anything, that the friendliness of some of the members (elifain, lookin' at you here) was a big factor in deciding to join... that's not something you find often on RP forums.
So... *rubs hands together* where does one begin?

well i'll give you a small summery of whats going on (at least in the story i'm going through, which i think is the only galaxy spanning story going on at the moment)
Some time ago i made a character named Sarah, who was genetically engineered. Her biological "father" possessed a unique human DNA sequence that made it extremely open to Gene therapy and splicing treatments.
Her biological "mother" was one of the few humans born with natural telepathic and empathic abilities.
Before conception in a laboratory, several other species had their DNA thrown the mix, including Abyssin, Zeltron and Kilik.
The resulting live birth was girl, (later grown to a woman) who had extraordinary telepathic and empathic abilities, secreted Kilik hormones and is highly resistance to physical injury thanks to cellular regeneration.
She's currently taken over a small Kilik hive mind which is growing rapidly and has began Joining with members of the Republic Senate, high command officers of the Republic Navy and already most of the galaxies insectoid species have fallen behind her. (most notably the Verpine.)
if i might suggest, you should peruse through the BHOD RP at the various ships in the shipyards and you can post your character profile in the character profile Thread.
We use a lot of made up weapons and vehicles here (me especially) so the shipyards will give you a good look at the various ships that aren't in official Star Wars Cannon and were made by members.
If you want, start an RP or jump right into one already going, i'm sure no one will care. Haven't seen a new member in these parts for a good while.
Now, to the fun part. I get to introduce myself. I'm Mik. I'm the grumpy old man of the site. I'm a star wars purist who can't stand what KOTOR and the prequels have done to my precious star wars.
I don't post as much as some but i make up for it with size of posts. I like to think my RP posts are more like pages from a book then forum posts on the internet. I don't take kindly to criticism, but i hand out plenty of it to others when i see something wrong. If you have a question pertaining to anything Star Wars feel free to ask, i've been obsessed with it for a good 11 years now.
I'm also something of an authority on anything BHOD considering i'm one of it's longest standing members and former admin, although Cain would be your best bet for finding answers strait from the mouth of god (or so to speak.)
I'm currently employed by the United States Military (in as much as the coast guard is a "Military" organization) so a lot of my posts will contain a bit more of a... whats the word... military professionalism to them (like the correct way to speak on a radio). I guess that means i'm also the person to ask if you have a question on what military life would be like for your characters (or in real life for that matter).
Welcome to the RP and if i offend you in the future (as i am likely to do) just keep in mind that nothing i say is personal.

Most RP sides are made up of fuckwits who dislike new members. Ellifain actually helped me out when I was deciding whether to join, and Mik too has (and is being) a colossal help. You don't find that kinda people on many RP sites. 'Tis nice.

Well when the board is small and alot of people know eachother well around here, it's not to hard to help the noobs coming to the site. good to have you here though. Mik isn't the only plot going on at the moment however.
