Terena Adare Cost: 10 Faction: Old Republic Hit Points: 30 Defense: 13 Attack: 0 Damage: 0
Unique Diplomat (If an attacker has line of sight to any enemies without Diplomat, this character is not a legal target and does not count as the nearest enemy, even if adjacent) Old Republic Administrator (All characters in your squad are considered Old Republic for the rest of the skirmish)
Design Notes
I like the idea of Mandalorian conscription, and because there are some Old Republic commander effects (WotC or custom) that are limited to Old Rep, I thought it would be something interesting to bring to the faction. Rather than placing it on a powerhouse piece, though, I've tried a different approach here, giving it to a character who primarily serves as sort of an extended commader effect.
Still, I have mixed feelings on her, because I like that the OR CURRENTLY sort of inspires players to select Old Rep rather than Fringe. That potentially goes out the window with Terena.

Any thoughts on this? Is Terena Adare a piece work bothering with?

While an interesting piece for sure, she doesnt really strike me as OR. She lead dathomir while the Republic let it suffer, recieving little aid from them. She would seem to better fit the Fringe factiont han anything else.
OR conscription is nice, but also doesnt fit her character either. It would be better served on someone else I think. Granted, she DID try and recruit people for the defense of dathomir, but that didnt last terribly long.

I was misremembering and thinking that Adare's Khoonda government was "more Republic" than it really was...
I'll tentatively trash the character idea. Any thoughts on what (if anything) to do with "Old Republic conscription"?

see my thread for Empress Teta...she is one of the first characters that came to mind for it.

So what do we want to do with this character? Delete it?

I really don't think her government was not Republic. She wanted the support of the Republic to help Dantooine prosper. She led the people of Dantooine through the merc assault, who would have broken Dantooine away from the OR and used it as a base for the Exchange's criminal activities. She relied on the Republic for support, but she could be more Fringe than Republic. She could be salvaged as OR, I guess. Just some suggestions here.

Interesting idea bounty
maybe she could make republic characters count as fringe, yet still be old re[public, or something like that.

Just to throw an idea out there: maybe she could CE or SA that would make non-unique Fringe followers count as Old Republic for the purpose of CEs/Squad Abilities. I don't know if this could work, or even be very useful, but I can't think of anything else at this point. Any other ideas?

I like the ideas being suggested. I guess there are two questions here:
1) Is the idea (admittedly interesting) something we want to try out for the Old Republic?
2) If so, is Terena Adare the appropriate character for it?

I like the idea of it being on a female character, as they were very powerful and ifluential characters in the OR.
Empress Teta and Queen Talia are both canidates, but sicne we have jsut amde minis of them, they are currently out of the running.
Atris could have been one, pre KOTOR II time, but since we only know her history post KOTOR II, she is out.
The hapan culture hadnt been established yet, so no hapan queens to get it.
Im not saying a male character cant have it, but I think it would be better if a female did. We dont have many female characters, and the ones we do have are mostly leia's.

Well, what do people want to do? I agree with Planes on the whole gender deal.
