WHO || Wynn, any and all Knights not currently on missions (if you are uncertain if your character would be at the castle for this, ask!)
WHAT || Squiring Ceremony Afterparty
WHERE || Knights Headquarters, the Ballroom
WHEN || July 1st, 2016, 6:00PM [backdated]
HOW || Prose OR Actionspam

The "afterparty" is rumored to be the real main event of the night. A black-tie affair in the lavish, opulent ballroom, it is every new Knight's chance to mingle and meet some of their new brothers in arms. Of course, a couple hours are provided following the ceremony for everyone to change, do hair and makeup, and choose from the vast array of formal attire in the closets of the balcony "dressing rooms" located at the top of spiraled staircases on either side of the ballroom. A separate dressing room exists for men and women, and they include full bathrooms (with, thankfully, very modern plumbing).

The squires are usually among the last to arrive, and the ballroom is full to the brim with a fancy array of people, of all shapes, sizes and species.

Hope you aren't shy. They're all here to meet you.

Feel free to make your own open threads for people to come congratulate your newly pledged knight.

ooc; also if your Knight wants to get all gussied up, you can make a Disguise (Cha) check for how good they were at hair/makeup/stylin', etc! This goes for... any time.

...Organa Solo. And General would be a demotion. She's one of the New Republic's main leaders.

[It's a weird oversight, but a lot of what he's saying is weird. Han frowns.]

And last I checked, we all take the remnants of the Empire seriously.

Well, the First Order got to them first. They turned an ice planet into a superweapon, and then used it to destroy the entire Hosnian system.

[He looks over at Rey, frowning, then back at Han.]

Where we're from, the New Republic already lost its capital and most of its fleet.

General Organa wasn't on the planet when it happened.

[ Not Organa Solo, actually. ]

....Coruscant isn't in the Hosnian system. Why the hell would they blow that up?

[forcevisions]

I wondered the same thing. [ She tries not to get inappropriately excited given the circumstances. But she likes being like Han. ] According to the General, they'd expected an attack against the Republic for some time, so they'd been periodically relocating its operations.

Hosnian Prime didn't become the New Republic's capital until 30 years after the Battle of Endor. The headquarters of the Galactic Senate was there.
