You know, I almost feel bad for Novak. A meaning-well Sith follower whose really trapped by the fact that he proclaimed himself a Sith in public lol. Man I feel bad. Of course, Echuu would discredit everything that Novak ever said and essentially want to rip his throat out; but you can't help but sit back and feel pity for someone who just wants to live a happy dark life :P [+]--[+]--[+]--[+]--[+]--[+]--[+]--[+]--[+] Echuu Shinzon Ex-Jedi Human
Lol. That's cute Echuu. See? Honesty never gets you anywhere in life! :P I still need some active Jedi response though. I get the feeling if Novak wants to get anywhere, he's going to have to give up the Sith terminology and adopt a more moderate position. Rath Deschain High Inquisitor
Agreed with Novak, that honesty doesn't usually get you far in life, and especially in politics. I do feel bad though, too, because I was looking forward to seeing Novak in the Senate (perhaps under a moderate guise, as you say? Or a different character?). In any case, it'll be interesting to see what happens with the Jedi at Druckenwell.

Well, there's still a shot that Novak can get into the Senate. It's a good bet that the New Republic would rather have a quasi-questionable guy on their side than have to expend soldiers and time fighting against him. It'd be nice to actually GET some Jedi to Druckenwell. :P Rath Deschain High Inquisitor
Well also, even if you are a nice sith, you are a member of a radical ideological group. For example, you wouldnt get a nazi in the Knesset. Moff of the Tammuz Sector
What about reformed Nazis? The point was actually to prove that the New Republic, for all their talk of acceptance and 'let's work together!' stuff, was a sham. The Senate (within the RP) is playing exactly into what Novak wants. Rath Deschain High Inquisitor
