Title: 2 Sentence Premise
Post by: mrg149 on April 21, 2020, 02:51:16 AM
In these uncertain times (II'm beginning to loath that phrase) I propose a game of sorts.

You have 1 to two sentences MAXIMUM  to convey the plot of your very own original Star Wars story. No utilizing any currently posted stories here ;-)

Konras Teal is among the last of a dying breed of Inquisitors not given over to the zealotry of the numbered fraternity.

Sent to the deep core to investigate a Jedi sighting, his duty to hunt those force users who hold themselves above the Law is frustrated by the cronyism of the very Imperial authorities meant to enforce the Law.

Oh, I LIKE this!  Great idea mrg149!

And no surprise that LSG has already presented a home run with his entry  :)   Let me think...

"Ensign Asori Renning, a recent graduate of the Imperial Naval Academy, finds herself fast-tracked to pilot the new TIE Defender, commensurate of both her skills as a pilot and the pedigree of her family amidst the Empire's elite.

...Too bad she's also being targeted by the Imperial Security Bureau, in danger of closing in on her and discovering the one secret in the galaxy that she is desperate to keep hidden...at any cost."

"After years of experimentation, Darth Horuss finally succeeded in creating his very first "Force void" warrior. The first in a Set of many, many more..."

This is actually one that has been bouncing around in my head for quite a while. Karm can vouch for that.  ;)

Great stuff so far!

A fateful encounter in space between an elite band of Jedi Sentinels and a cabal of Sith Acolytes takes a surprising turn as their ships are hurled through space and time to a small blue planet. Stranded, both groups struggle to survive, hidden amongst the planet's inhabitants thier clashes shaping the fate and history of this strange world...called Earth.

I love the creativity here! Lemme take a whack at it.


The terrified Sith prisoner looked up to the ship before him - a charred and mangled body mixed with newer parts.

"Don't worry," the droid handler chirped,"your model is much improved from your predecessor's - the new engines boast a mere 78% fail rate."

Good time to trot out this week's writing tip:  The Story Question

WHEN SOMETHING HAPPENS*, *YOUR PROTAGONIST* *PURSUES A GOAL*. But will he succeed when *ANTAGONIST PROVIDES OPPOSITION*?

When the Empire fell and raiders attacked his retirement planet, Brexton Krail recruits his friends to defend their sector using mothballed equipment while he poses as a Sith Lord.  But will his plan work when the New Republic and hidden dark forces take notice?

Whoa! You  piggybacked…

I assume yours is a comedy? :-/

A thief, a traitor, a scum rat from the lower levels of Coruscant... Ajac Kolen is all of these things. But will he have what it takes to pull off the greatest heist in Republic history?

Sounds intriguing. Hopefully it includes a Mission Impossible style scene with lasers :-)

When an ancient Sith Alchemist's long dormant experiment is unwittingly released into the galaxy causing a galactic pandemic, the fate of all life hangs in the balance. Jedi, Sith and even Hutts must come together to find the cure before time runs out

too soon?

Haha, I'm just getting "ze blue-shadow virus" vibes from this one. :D

Ancient forces and songs, dormant for centuries, are stirring.  Will Li'Aun face the test and join the ranks of the Cantors, or be swept away with the rising flood?

Then I would HIGHLY recommend that you check out Karm's stories, starting with "We Are Gray"  :)

You will not be disappointed!

No lasers unfortunately, but does have some stunts. It's a story I've been working on for the forums for quite some time.
