| My only hesitance here, after rather time-consuming research, is the amount of multiple-crew craft these guys use, all but three, in fact. Modifications aside, these seem to be rather large and noticeable craft for what is supposed to be a bodyguard unit. I don't know... I'm conflicted. Jace, thoughts?

| I agree with Jaron, probably more strongly than he does. I think having NPC's with these powerful ships is essentially just a way of getting Stark a small fleet through the back door. I vote to DENY anything for these characters that isn't A.) a single, communal ship that they all use, or B.) individual starfighters. I also don't think we should be expected to review special abilities or special ship modifications for minor NPC characters. I vote to DENY all non-standard ship modifications (a bit of a moot point since I vote to DENY all of these ships), and the following weapons and special abilities:
- Gun of command - Modified portable E-web heavy repeating blaster - DXR-6 Disruptor rifle - ZX flame projector - Force pike - Knowledge and creation of poisons from Mecrosa Order - Knowledge of Jedi combat techniques and styles - Species: Epicanthix - Neuronic whip - ASN-121 Assassin droids
Also, what's "Empathy during combat"?
I don't believe that an NPC should have the capability of fighting someone's fight for them. An NPC should not be a serious, credible opponent for playable characters in the RP. This is why I've voted to deny several of the above weapons or abilities that I would be fine with a playable character having (though some of these, like the Gun of Command and the Epicanthix species, I'm going to be against for PCs and NPCs alike). I also vote to DENY any more than 1 or 2 of these NPC bodyguards for Stark until he becomes a higher-profile character in the RP.

| Jace more or less took the words out of my mind. I know I was softer initially, but he essentially lays out all of my concerns here, and I agree completely. I'm going to have to DENY this as well.

| I actually read this again and realized I didn't go through the entire thing. So, also:
- DX-2 Disruptor pistol - Species: Noghri (we don't know how prevalent Noghri are in this time period but the indication is that the planet and its people are virtually unknown until the Clone Wars)
I'm actually okay with the Karpaki Fifty even though there's a potential conflict with what time period it belongs to, but such technology does exist in other eras anyway.

| Quick clarification, I didn't mean to say that you're trying to get "a small fleet through the back door." My point, poorly phrased, was that this is the effect of the request, not the intention. Sorry if I came across as rude there. The part about NPC's "fighting someone's fight for them" wasn't meant to be rude either. I just meant to say what I did, in fact, say in the following sentence, "An NPC should not be a serious, credible opponent for playable characters in the RP." Obviously, it's understandable for someone in Stark's position to have bodyguards, even quite formidable bodyguards considering the number of Jedi in the RP.

| After consideration, I'm going to make Tarin Mako into an actual PC and make a new request for Azaghor Azhirai as an NPC. I'm sure there will be one or two 'named' bodyguards in the future, but I'll remember to keep them within limits. You can close this request for now.
