Vohai Civil War : Enlistment and Updates
Vohai Civil War: Enlistment Forum
The Office of Strategics and Military Logistics of the Galactic Republic wrote: Dear members of the Jedi Order,
At 0523 on 387.13, the planetary Government of Vohai stationed on Vohai City was besieged, arrested and murdered by a radical terrorist cell that has gained notoriety on the planet, known as the 'People's Will'. After the Republic's Central Command had heard the surrender from the Vohai City garrison commander, we received a transmission from the so-called 'Revolutionary Council of the Independent System of Vohai', stating their independence and intent to do violence to Republic forces that remain on the planet.
As Governor of this system, I will not allow tyranny and unlawful murder to overtake a once-prosperous and safe place, home to billions of citizens. The Republic respects the democratic will of the people, but this is nothing more than a coup by terrorists and demagogues, that seek to enslave and subdue the population who still hold loyalty to the Republic. The People's Will appears to be the chief organiser of this new 'state', and we believe that the violence against Republic officials was orchestrated by their leadership.
I received a transmission of acceptance from the Chief of State earlier this morning, allowing me temporary military and legal jurisdiction over the planet while I solve this crisis. But, I am formally requesting the aid of the Jedi, such as our alliance exists, to aid the Republic in its time of need.
While a significant portion of the Republic Fleet has been above planet, due to Senatorial bureaucracy and a lack of understanding of the crisis, the Republic's involvement in the growing problems has been limited and, in my own view, lazy and unresponsive to the growing threat.
Due to the subversion of the population by this terrorist cell 'The People's Will' and their attack upon the people of the Republic, we are obliged to protect, but their violent anti-Republic ideology threatens the safety of our democracy. Our job is of paramount importance.
Functionally, we wish for the Jedi to engage in both military and 'spiritual' roles. Training, guidance and the brawn of the Jedi Order will be needed to bring an end to this terrible threat. Officers, soldiers, medics, explorers, diplomats and trainers will be greatly appreciated in any role you can provide.
We look forward to your involvement.
-Governor-General Ruun, Secretary for the Office of Strategics and Military Logistics

War is a curse upon the Jedi. We are burdened by our duty to plunge deep into the depths of humanity, and witness how cruel the Galaxy truly can be. If you so wish to take this great burden, then do not hesitate, for the people of Vohai suffer with every moment we wait.
However, I must profess my concerns about this operation. Let us not forget the mistakes of the past, in naming an enemy too fast. There are fundamental questions that must be asked here, we are not simply fighting an enemy of no soul. These fighters are labelled terrorists, it is known, yet we must keep our eyes open for the pain of the suffering. To turn to radicalism is a crime of passion, ignorance and pain. The 'Revolutionary Council', as it is referred, may not be as unanimous as the Republic presents.
Be mindful of the foe, but give mercy to the pained. We too share in their pain, for every life lost in this conflict is another star burnt from the sky. Let them see the beauty of the Jedi, but do not hesitate in our justice. Our alliance with the Republic has been long and fruitful, and must be protected against all threats.
May the Force be with you all,
-Master Don'Roq, Grandmaster of the Jedi Order
CHAIN OF COMMAND | JEDI ROLES
This is a list of roles meant for the JEDI, applications at the bottom of this post.
Governor-General: Laa’ken Ruun
Grand Admiral: Milara Krannis
*Fleet Advisor: A subsidiary, strategic role for the experienced and older Jedi of the facility. Aboard the fleet, the Fleet Advisor will discuss and draw up larger battle plans about the long-term logistics of the operation, as well as providing sound advice and support to the commanders where necessary. Previous war experience is preferable.
*Senior Jedi General: A mixture between the front-line and supportive position, leading larger divisions of the Republic forces. As you are in charge of the division of varying numbers, roughly 1000+ soldiers, this role is reserved for Masters, Councillors and experienced Knights.
Jedi General: A front-line position, leading smaller battalions of the Republic forces. This role is reserved for Knights, Masters and Councillors.
Jedi Commander: The Commander is an experienced Jedi Padawan (15+) that supports the Jedi General in completing operations by leading sub-sections of the forces, such as a handful of men in a platoon - or spending time with the soldiers face to face: training, eating and marching with them.
Jedi Mechanical Officer: A position for artisans and members of the Order less inclined to combative roles. Mechanical Specialists can perform roles such as droid repairing, the maintenance of defensive fortifications, or even mine disposal.
Jedi Medical Officer: As a Medical Assistant, the Jedi will alleviate the pain of both soldiers and civilians alike. Your healing and medical skills will be put to the test, as wars like this tend to result in a fair few brutal casualties.
Jedi Infiltrator: As Vohai is a planet with relatively little information, scouts and infiltrators will be necessary in their position to both avoid being discovered on-planet whilst retaining or collecting information that can provide crucial for ground forces.
Jedi Diplomat: While the war rages on, there is still room for words. Not all of Vohai is united against the Republic, and it is the Diplomat's job to not only uphold peace talks between the forces of the bloody Civil War, but also to convince the fringe groups around the Vohai living centres to support the Republic or retain their neutrality.
**Director's note: This role is a good choice for members of the Order who have advice to give, but cannot provide as much time or consistent mission-time activity.
Outline of Arc Criteria ((OOC))
Primarily, this arc will consist of missions centered around the 'important points' of the war, as well as any and all subsidiary and independent content that Knights want to provide, supporting the opportunity for creative writing in either the journals or other comport areas. Posted missions will structure and strengthen the formal progression of the war, but we implore all who sign up to take part to continue the story in your journals and any other means, such as private server sessions led by Knights.
Depending on your IC rank or position in the Civil War, you will receive consistent 'planetary updates' (usually weekly / cyclical) to give you context, problems, challenges and spice as the war progresses and changes as time goes on. You will be deployed to certain units depending on your position, and can be as creative as you like. We want to give people the opportunity to really explore the war in their journals, and anything written in there will be contextualised (when relevant) into the world, or into the map. That is to say that the decisions you make may impact the war as a whole. Naturally, well written and detailed journal accounts will count towards XP grants for time spent in the war zone.
Your actions do matter. I will do my best to provide in-game content outside of our primary missions, but engage with myself or other members of the Knight body if you want to try and organise something to happen depending on its scale. I will also attempt to offer small events for special individuals who we want to dismember or mentally scar. If any Knights are interested in independently providing content, send me (Joran) a message and we'll fit it into the context of the cyclical planetary / map updates.
In terms of journal content, this can range from spending time playing cards with your soldiers or repairing the fortifications at one of the Republic's strongholds. BUT for anything consequential to the map or war, it is worth checking with myself (Joran) whether or not it would be appropriate under the circumstances. For example:
- Leading raids against an enemy position.
- Spying and / or 'dealing with' an enemy, as a JEDI Infiltrator. (This is incredibly important if in regards to the information that can literally be provided to members going on missions.) For those interested in the Infiltrator position, you may be given more and more information the higher you rise in undercover prestige.
- Advancing or retreating from a stationed position.
- Speaking to high ranking officials.
- Anything in between that might change the direction of the war.
Generally, be as creative and have as much fun as you like, just keep me in the loop if you want to try and win the war in one day. Try not to lose any limbs.
Once roles are assigned I will start putting up the missions, so get to applying!
