Sounds good. About the characters. I think that I am only going to put characters in the Databank when they die, or if they are super important. Just so we don't have the same list as in the sign-ups. But please people feel free to post in here about races and what not.

Meh, I'm really bored now, so I'll post info on the vampires or whatever it is that I call them.
Nosferatu
Many jedi and sith have tried to find a way to save people from death. All along, the answer lay within death itself. - Lorthias
Appearance: A nosferatu generally takes the form of a human. Some...rare cases prove otherwise, but most nosferatu can't really be told apart from humans. The two things that differ nosferatu from humans is their fangs instead of the natural corner teeth. Also, nosferatu have animalistic eyes, not human ones.
Bio: A sith lord named Kel'zhur was slain by his lover over 1,000 years ago. However, making a pact with the dark side itself, Kel'zhur was given a chance to exact revenge, but his dead body could only continue to function if he had the very essence of other life flowing through him. Even after he got his revenge, Kel'zhur refused to give up his new found power, and thus he continued to feed upon the living. Kel'zhur was killed over 100 years later by his own son. And that is how the nosferatu came into existance.
Strengths: Nosferatu are physically stronger than humans. They also have warp speed and quick healing. As well as the ability to regenerate vital organs and limbs with the exception of the heart and brain. Their senses, such as hearing, are also much greater than that of a human's. Nosferatu can also turn humans into one of them.
Weaknesses: Nosferatu are allergic to cortosis, so vibroblades can make quick work of them. Fire tends to burn Nosferatu more easily than it does humans. The blood of any mortal being other than a human will burn through a Nosferatu like acid. Any mortal wounds to the heart and/or head will kill them. Nosferatu also cannot see anything in the sunlight (something I've kept hidden for the most part).
Allegiance: Nuetral
Natural Life Span: Eternal
Preferred equipment: Lightsabers, casual clothing or robes
Nosferatu characters: Lorthias, Caleb, Valus (tell me if you want it removed)

Rilan (more specifically Feanturi and War Lords) Planet Name: Rilia Planet Specs: This planet is mostly desert with a few large areas of water, and forest. Over all it is very rugged, with mesas and rock formations in some areas, and sand dunes in others. Ruled by war lords, you have to watch your step, and try to blend in, or you will wind up a slave, dead...or worse. Bio: ~~~~Pre-Civil War (approx. 4000 yrs ago)~~~~ At one time Rilia was a peaceful planet ruled by one of a family of nobles. This Ruler was always a female and was chosen to lead the people because she was seen to be the wisest and greatest leader, warrior, and peace keeper of the family. She was called the CONTESS....and she had been raised and taught by the peace keepers of Rilia. The knights and Priestesses who held the greatest powers of the Rilan race were used to keep the peace. These peace keepers would be raised at a young age to be warriors worthy of trust because they were taught to be Honorable, Loyal, Wise, and Intelligent. These Rilan warriors of the Light, (the Contess, knights, and priestesses) were called the Feanturi. The Feanturi believe in The Winds (equivalent to Jedi's Force). First is The Wind of Change, Second the Wind of Shaping, Third is the Unknown, and last is the Word is the first saying that the Feanturi LITTLINGS learn. These represent: first the past changes or change that is happening now, second is the effect we all have in the shaping of others around us or in shaping a situation, third is the unknown of the future, and last is what the true destiny shall be and that it shall always be for the better if done through the way of the Winds. Since the Jedi arrived on the planet when the Order was first formed over 4000 years ago, they and the Feanturi worked together to help rid the Galaxy of the sith. The Feanturi helping establish the ways of teaching the force to the future generations of Jedi, in return for Light saber making knowledge and a promise from the Jedi masters that Rilia would remain unmapped on all documents. Unfortunately 1,050 years after the formation of the Jedi Order, Rilia went into civil war. ~~~~~~~Civil War (approx. 2,050 yrs ago) ~~~~~~ The Great Civil War started when several male members of the Contess' family, tired of being supposedly 'over looked' and hungrey for power, started a rebellion on the planet using mind control, fear of death, and lies about their leaders and the Contess. To do this they consulted a willing Lord Sidious, seeking a way to gain power on their planet (which never actually came to pass), on how they should go about overthrowing the government. These men became known as the WAR LORDS. After starting the Civil war the War Lords also highered bounty hunters and sith to hunt down and kill all of the Feanturi....including the Contess. After 20 years of constant battles and skirmishes all that was left of the Feanturi was a handfull of knights and priestesses, who had no choice but to flee the planet with the only surviving child of the now dead Contess. Once they escaped the planet the Feanturi decided the only way to survive would be to separate, then reunite at a later date. And so they divided, scattering throughout the galaxy... Some returned in secret to Rilia, starting the nomadic groups that continue to train knights and priestesses in secret....for the battling still continued between the War Lords themselves. No one ever knew what happened to the child of the Contess, but many believe now that the child was brought back to Rilia to be trained, knowing the War Lords would have their bounty hunters and Sith searching everywhere BUT the planet for the child. ~~~~~Today~~~~~ Rilia is still a war torn planet. The decendants of the War Lords having taken on their ancestors titles, and fighting amongst each other for control of the planet. There are ever growing rhumers of 'The Next Contess' returning soon to lead both civilians and Feanturi alike out of the War Lord's oppression. These rhumers stemming from a vision one of the greatest Feanturi of the time, Soru Soriar, had over 50 years ago. Appearance (for all Rilan): Rilan often take the form of Humans with very little differences save for their eyes, which according to their moods can drastically change colors. Most often the color changes are as follows: - green = greed, jealousy, or happiness (depending on the individual)
- blue = sadness…
- purple = love, compassion, or courage (possibly all three)…
- red, black, or yellow = extreme anger…
- orange = fear (usually only shown in streaks through the eye’s natural color).
However, all of these are dependant on the individual…not all Rilan eyecolor changes will represent the same feeling. In extreme situations Rilan have also been seen as what, by some, might be considered an angel (light or dark), with an aura of light (each aura will be a unique color, or combination of colors…known as the “Soul Color”) surrounding them, large feathery wings, hair often described as a ‘lion’s mane’, and shining skin (usually gold, silver, copper, or other metallic color)…yet they still retain a human like form and are often seen as quite beautiful. However, this state is very rarely seen. Strengths: (Overall) The Rilan are extremely courageous fighters, whether for good or evil. They are extremely loyal to their friends and family, but if they turn to the darkness they are very unpredictable. They also are physically stronger than humans. They have extremely good reflexes and more often than not are very very fast, and agile. Most Rilan are very intelligent and/or cunning. (mostly noticed in Feanturi because of their specific training) agility, loyalty, honor, courage, commitment to duty, selflessness, knowledge (history, other cultures, the force), compassion (sometimes this is also a weakness for them), saber combat ( mostly seen in War Lords and their armies because of their training) all manners of combat, agility, determination (especially when it comes to gaining power, revenge, or winning) Powers (all Rilan): Visions (some- but not all), mind speaking (somtimes in a place called "Silmorne" or Silver Tree...or just from mind to mind), telepathy (including reading thoughts if they choose. Not through the force), healing ability, most are force sensitive. Weaknesses (all): Their healing ability is a major weakness as well as a strength, because they do not use the force to heal others…they use their own life energy. The more energy they use the weaker they become, and if allowed to fall asleep directly afterward (like their body wants them to) they have a high risk of death. Their tempers are also a weakness…though some are naturally born even-tempered, most start out with fiery tempers, but grow to be much more calm. Allegiance: (Feanturi) Jedi or neutral, (War Lords) sith or none Natural Life Span: 130 yrs Preferred equipment: (Feanturi)Light sabers, casual clothing or robes (usually in neutral colors that blend in well with surroundings), leather armor with metal plating for protection (War Lords) Light sabers, casual clothing or robes (usually dark colors with some sort of small, yet noticeable, embellishments) chain mail shirts and metal braces ((all metals are designed to resist vibro-weapons, using a special Rilan technique.)) Common phrases: - Greeting to you __ : Anaru Sel __
- No: Nai
- Yes: Aye
- Feanturi Knight: Heru Feanturi (<-male) Hiril Feanturi (<-female)
- War Lords: Morherus
- Priestess: Pristas
- heal: mena
- Vision (as in A Vision): Parme
- Light Sabre: Tarsil
Rilan characters: (Feanturi) Talau Firians, Latus Itani, (War Lord) Daawn Soriar ((Yikes that was long!))

I am just going to state this for the record. Only Jedi and Sith use lightsabers. a race doesn't use lightsabers till they either Join one of those orders.
Lightsabers are a speciality weapon to force users. There are many weapon types that can resist/match lightsabers so people get abit more creative.
And Talau are the war lords not Rilan? cause if so then they wouldn't have any different characteristics from the other Rilan....Or did I miss something. And another thing. . . You say that Rilan's often take the form of humans...does this mean they are shape shifters? I think that you should double check everything and make everything more detailed.
And you failed to mention what system the planet was in and what region.

Well, the nosferatu are naturally dark jedi since the first of them was a sith lord, so that's why they use lightsabers. Also, if you notice, vibroblades extremely deadly to them so it seems unlikely that they'd use those. And when I say preferred equipment, I mean what they feel MOST COMFORTABLE using. They don't have to use lightsabers, but it's their weapon of choice. And last I checked, only two things could resist lightsabers: Cortosis and energy. But hey, I don't read the books or anything so I probably wouldn't know if there are more.

Well there are so many veriations of vibro-weapons thats its not hard to come up with something really cool in the place of Lightsabers....I only made that point is because I don't want every unique race to use lightsabers...cause common its very unlikely that it would happen, and it takes away from the coolness from the Force users.
But since you did say that the first was a sith lord then I am cool with the Nosferatu using them

Hey Kal,I was thinking maybe you should make a new sub-board specifically for character bios. That way if people want to expound on there char's history and stuff,they could put it in there. Just a thought.

I think we should just add threads in the character bios section of the databank. We only have Jedi bios, and I'm gonna go into further detail for Riko's bio because it isn't very well detailed.
