Force Orders ( aka the "Mystic Mob" )

in Religion

One time during the Long Night, the Shards of Honor adventuring party walked into a situation-in-progress on one of the many affected spaceports of the Tapani Sector. A harried, exasperated, overworked Bureau of Ships flunky took one look at Jedi Padawan VN Ysadora and said to his companion,

Oh, look. It's the mystic mob.

in quite the eye-rolling tone.

And Vanya, being Vanya, promptly adopted the label with her relentless cheer.

It only took a few months of Vanya grabbing the nearest Force user of any religion to go tackle a problem jointly, and referencing the team of herself plus { Mentat / Bene Gesserit / Crimson Knight / Dathomirian Witch / woman, that is Darth Dragomir / woman! that is Asajj Ventress, that is The Mandalore, are you kidding me right now?! } as "Mystic Mob" -- usually in the phrase, "Mystic Mob! What do you need?" -- before the phrase became preferred shorthand across the Sector.

When you need moralizing and pontificating, that's a religious thing.

But when you need a frankly ridiculous solution to some chunk of your increasingly ridiculous problem ... that's the ideal time for the Mystic Mob to show up.

Star Wars: Shards is a work of pure, unabashed fiction. In fact, it considers itself rather heroic, noble, and quite proud of itself.   The opinions expressed on the in-world pages or within quotation boxes are those of the characters and should not be confused with either of the authors, since the characters and authors tend to disagree a lot. But … This is the Way.   Names of characters, places, events, organizations and locations are all creations of the authors' imaginations for this fictitious setting, except where credit is given to the sources of inspiration. Any resemblance to persons living, dead, or reanimated is coincidental.   Star Wars TM & © Lucasfilm Ltd. Tapani Sector created by West End Games for Lucasfilm, and used in homage only.
