Pandora's Fox II
PANDORA'S FOX II
If you were here last June, do you remember that app that appeared on the relics then, Pandora's Fox? It's all about finding your Familiar bond. It's been available for people to use since every Star Child was forced to fill it out or have it filled out for them with its grand reveal. However, it's sat quietly in the background unobtrusive to those who didn't click to see what it was about.
Until now.
That's right, Pandora's Fox is back! (and with a makeover). The app has been rejiggered with old questions and new, including some specific to each Role! The app will buzz and open itself with a blank profile waiting to be filled out. Star Children can fill it out for themselves—as long as they don't lie. This app will not allow Star Children to lie. Honesty is important in a Familiar bond. Star Children who lie may find that answer filled in a little too honestly and unable to be deleted. Anyone who waits too long to fill it in will find it answered for them!
Familiar bonds come in all different shapes and sizes, so find the right person for you!
This is game canon!
Forms for your characters!

And I spent from about age 7 to 14 hiding from most safe everyone to try to stay safe. And took a trip into the Dark for a while.
And I'm a familiar. Technically, I'm also kinda a monk, though. Jedi doesn't translate well to every religious paradigm, in my experience.

What kind of abilities are you talking about? [it sounds like she might just be addressing 'gardening', but she's actually curious about all three.] A strange commonality to have...
..well, hiding's not the grand adventure some people make it out to be, but it ain't all bad if you're good at it. [but. seven? no, that's far too young to have to be on the run. every reason she can think of is a bad path, too. so now there's an undercurrent of sadness there.] Seven years is a long time to get good at it. And seven is a very young age to have to start.
[sevens are lucky, often enough.]
For a while. Hmmm. It sounds like you came out the other side of it?
[possible with the dark she's familiar with, though not wise. then again, the same might be said of the green. it's not that cut and dry, but being a myth or a legend doesn't seem so clear cut either.]
A monk, you say? It's not quite what I'm thinking of when I read back what my own dealbreaker is, but it's in the ballpark somewhere. There's a lot of fineprint. [that thankfully was not elaborated on.]

It's...I feel the energy that flows through everything, living things, especially. It shows me things. What people are feeling, sometimes. The near future. With training, I've learned to direct it to do lots of things. And my teachers call that energy that binds everything the Force.
My first teacher - he gave me a name for the things I sensed. He took me in. Our crew became my new family. I'm doing pretty ok now.
But, ah. Before the Emperor came to power there were many traditions around the Force. And one of the oldest and biggest, was the Jedi Order. Jedi...serve? They're supposed to use their abilities to help people, and if you completed you training and wanted to remain part of the Order you took vows to decidate yourself to that service.
I wrote my own, since there isn't really an Order anymore.

Your Emperor sure sounds like an Emperor. Also sounds like a real bastard if you don't mind my saying so. Anyone worth two shits usually finds themselves on the opposite side of that sort of person, but it's not always easy. Especially if they get their hooks in, and they always know how to hook. It's how they end up on the top of that bonepile in the first place.
It's good you found your people, even if it took some time. Not everyone gets that lucky.
Mmmm. I ...can't sense the future, at least not yet. [she can't. it won't be a thing.] It's more what's present, or sometimes what's past and training's been ...lacking. I think I'd be in a whole different world of hurt if I could feel what people felt. [she might have made ...different choices.]
The way you explain it doesn't sound...well, it doesn't set off my alarm bells, or raise my hackles. It sounds like there was some freedom to choose, and that's not real common with what I'm thinking of.
In my experience, the best vows are the ones you make on your own.

Sometimes I see the present, yeah. There's another Jedi here, he touches things sometimes sees the past. That's just not really one of my gifts.
Yeah, I'm not going to say the Order was perfect - I doubt any group no matter how well-intentioned could be, especially one that has existed in various forms for thousands of years. But for me, at least, training was entirely a choice. And my teachers always taught me that my path was my own and that they couldn't hand me all the answers, all the time.
Can I ask - are you entirely self-taught, then?
no subject
Depends on the gift. The Seeing? I wouldn't say I had any teaching at all; it was a sudden bit of business. I'm still working my way through. Had a little bit of guidance with the rest of it, but that was...
...short-lived. So, most ways you slice it it's a yes.
