The Best Jedi [Layne Hoshin Q&A]

[Layne Hoshin]

How did this forum fill up so fast?

Ask and I will answer.

[Cole Ormont]

Will we see Layne Jedi'ing it up in the future?

We didn't get much chance to talk, but Layne was great.

[Layne Hoshin]

Yes, Layne will probably be returning as a Jedi next game. Still debating whether I want to blow a goal on becoming an actual knight, or whether I'll stay a grumpy padawan.

[Cole Ormont]

It will now be Cole's mission to adopt you as the annoying little sister he never had

[Remmington Thalalas]

Interesting turn for Layne's character. What does she think about the whole situation?

Thoughts on her bestest pal?

[Jo'ren Rath]

Much love for Layne! Great plot twist there being tagged as Magpie by Baras. I'm looking forward to seeing her as a Jedi

What were your favorite threads this game, one with and one without Layne?

[Zanebry Varliss]

*offers layne a cigarette*

I should of tried to find a excuse to talk to layne again.

At first she was like; "Yesss... finally away from these crazy sith!"; but now she's like, "fuck. so many rules. and my new master is kind of... bleh!"

Thoughts on her bestest pal? [/quote]

Layne has no bestest pal.

[Alysele Cortess]

Is she changing her name?

Study under Lorne!

[Balos Tyl]

Duty is everything.

Tough one. I liked getting to meet the Voice and then lying to her; but there were a lot of cool things happening. As for other threads, I enjoy the ones with plot twists like "oh, Asra is a double-agent." or "Cole murders patients".

[Layne Hoshin]

Probably not. That would be fairly pointless anyhow, she'd feel.

I would like to study under Lorne. But I have the green guy instead. It'll be weird having a master who by the looks of it I could easily take in a fight.

[Shaisha Vreysk]

*offers to tell Balos all the dirty secrets on Layne*

Nah, just kidding. Though Shai will pity Balos if she ever hears that he ended up as Layne's mentor.

So will Layne be taking the lessons of the Jedi to heart, or is she going to try and coast along on her alpha-dog posturing this time too?

Jedi don't kill their masters so... not an issue?

[Alysele Cortess]

Balos? Sounds fun!

I did enjoy Aly and Layne interactig as two irritating individuals

I'm not 100%. At first I was like, she should be a full knight by next game, but apparently Obi-Wan was 25 when he stopped being a padawan, so being a Padawan at 19, especially for a Sith who needs "deprogramming" for a few years, seems perfectly feasible.

I don't think she'll be fully alpha-dog posturing next game though, regardless of whether she'll be a knight or padawan. But there'll probably some vestiges left.

How can Layne respect a master who'se weaker than her!

[Dapper Dog]

Balos is not skipping leg day during the break then.

[Niall Organa]

So... I don't generally do the "what did your character think of mine". But in this case, I'm actually curious. What did Layne think about Niall?

Who does Layne like? Or hate the least?

[Layne Hoshin]

Layne thinks of Niall as one of those naive do-gooders that seem to belong in comic books

She enjoyed poking him.

As for who she likes; hard to say. It's more like there's people she "doesn't hate". Although she's warming up to some of them. People like Kristal, Jo'ren, and Baesal are in the 'Okay by Layne' book, but kind of have been since Korriban anyhow. Sylvain went from "Raging hate" to "Not so bad" to "In the okay camp" back to "Oh god why did I listen to you."

[Moyr Ahaya]

Now you've made me curious where Moyr is on Laynelist.

Also, tradition!

Highlight of the game?

Biggest regret?

Moment of desperation?

Dirtiest in-character thought?

[Layne Hoshin]

Now you've made me curious where Moyr is on Laynelist.

Well we didn't really interact on NS I think.

Highlight of the game?

Hmmm. I did kind of got asked about this earlier, but I'm gonna give a difference answer here...

...I loved getting to interrupt Xevious' breakfast and talk down to him.

Biggest regret?

I regret everything.

Mostly not pursuing more plotstuff related to the Jaw of Oblivion (since they were the ones that originally enslaved Layne)

Moment of desperation?

A retconned Crit result that would've made me permanently blind, followed by having a Crit result that would have given me a permanent -1 Willpower followed by a reroll of that Crit result that resulted in "Layne dies at the end of the encounter."

Dirtiest in-character thought?

Layne doesn't understand the question.

[Remmington Thalalas]

I must have missed how Layne got a new master. Also who the new master is.

Thoughts on Remmy then?
