...perhaps this is a good time to sort out the details of the storyline(s) involving many of us newbies.
These are the players whom I believe have expressed an interest in joining a new storyline (let me know if I’ve left anyone out, or if there’s anyone else who’s also interested):
Ynnek Rellim (merc)
Jerva Kutac (vigilante with a ship)
MackJedi (scout/ freighter captain)
WenTzu (merc)
Stratigo (merc? not sure - can’t find bio)
Bloodheart (bounty hunter with a ship)
Geo0880 (Jedi knight)
Visha Jerre (force sensitive)
Rylander Baine (rogue Jedi)
Da Kanish (merc)
Schalk von Gelbert (doc – haven’t seen him in a while, though)
Nerhainsor (sp?) and Adiar (fishy Jedi Knight; and medic)
Now since the prodigal Adiar seems to have returned, we may once again have another storyline. At any rate, these are the summaries of the stories proposed by Ynnek (I believe he has already, or is currently working on the first post for his) and Adiar, as written by them. (Just to recap what was said in the two storyboard threads.)

YNNEK’S
“HA! Just a slight twist on your idea WenTzu so you still get credit for it...
An unknown NPC shall steal it, perhaps meeting up with someone in the bar (perhaps a Republic Sympathizer). However, he was traced to the cantina (injury.... stupidity, whatever). The Imperials surround the cantina and prepare for a massacre of sorts. Since most of us are unaware of whats going on, and the item in question is SO important that the Republic agents will not speak up, the Imperials decide to kill everyone in the cantina. This is where we are all involved. A few of us will be easy to explain how we got there (I'm a natural wonderer and so are a few other people). As long as anyone who wants to join has a good reason to be there, we can start this story somewhat soon.”
ADIAR’S
“A man dies while under Adiar's care (Adiar is a Medic—basically a nurse) and charges him to give a message to an old friend. Adiar is delivering the message and nearly gets himself killed when the person getting the message is attacked (nothing like a good fight to start a storyline), and anyone around who decides to hop into the fight is marked as an enemy by an organization of thugs who are after an ancient artifact.
The message was a clue as to where the artifact is, and so forced together by their mutual enemy, the characters who are involved head out to try to pick up the treasure, in the hopes that they can use it as a bargaining chip for their lives by giving it to a man who claims that it's his.
The other man--who says that it belongs to him--is the one who's marked Adiar and the gang as enemies now.
There are some plot twists that I'll throw in (not saying what, of course ), but that's the basic idea.
The artifact is an amulet that signified leadership in a tribe that used to roam the planet of... well I'm not sure which planet I want it to take place on yet--possibly one of the various Yavin planets since those seem largely unexplored. Basic idea though is that two people want this amulet because they hate each other's guts and what one has the other wants (one of the plot twists explains why that is).”

Oh, and also, Da Kanish’s player has expressed a wish to have the story take place on Balmorra, where his char is apparently trying to get some sort of rebellion going. How does everyone feel about this?
Right, so perhaps if Ynnek and Adiar could let us all know the status of their respective stories, we could go from there. Probably, it would be best to just post something to get things started and see who actually pitches up. In my experience, everyone who says they’d like to participate in a thread doesn’t necessarily always end up doing so, for whatever reasons.
These stories have been in planning for a long time now, I think we should try to avoid planning them to death, but it would nonetheless be nice to have a general idea of what we’re going to do, and who’s going to be involved.
