Hello and welcome back to MLP SWG! You thought we were dead? Think again! There is no death, there is the Force. We were only on break. But now we're back, and ready to resume the important work of bringing you tales of ponies from a galaxy far, far away.

You're pretty good
Without further delay, we return to Anonymous, Dark Jedi.
>Previously...
http://pastebin.com/ANySBUK2
>The ride to the space station gives you an opportunity to think.
>This is the first time Lord Scorpan has sent you away on your own to accomplish a task.
>Is it a sign of him beginning to trust you again?
>Doubtful.
>After all, you still have a bomb in your head.
>More likely it is a sign that he considers you sufficiently obedient.
>Which you have been, of course.
>If you were a fool, you would take this chance to escape.
>And likely be destroyed when he activates the detonator.
>But surely the signal cannot be so strong as to him being able to kill you from anywhere in the galaxy?
>The chance that it is makes disobedience a fatal prospect.
>And where would you go now, even if you did?
>The Jedi?
>What reason would they have to take you back, even now with what you have done?
>Noteworthy thought that they would, but you are not Noteworthy.
>And he is not you; he never could be.
>It seems hardly surprising that he couldn't stomach what it took to be a Sith.
>He abandoned the Jedi, but they are merciful.
>Trying to do the same to the Sith would only have ended worse.
>Perhaps, then, it truly is a mercy what you did to him.
>With some fortune, he may yet rededicate himself to the Dark Side, if only to save his life.
>And yet...
>There is a part of you that remains, buried deep beneath, that feels sorrow for him.
>Maybe he was never meant to wield a lightsaber, getting swept up in forces much greater than his own.
>>27567882
>You can understand what that is like, being the puppet of a mad man.
>As much as you can say that he made his choices, perhaps he felt as if he had no choice, much like you do now.
>What terrible circumstances he found himself in.
>And yet, even at the end, he found some measure of hope when he learned who you once were.
>He believed you could be saved.
>Admirable... but foolish.
>You push aside troubling thoughts on him; whatever his fate, it is his.
>Instead, you take out the gift that Lord Scorpan bestowed upon you for this mission: the silver crystal from Mestare.
>It is strange to see it before you.
>When last you laid eyes upon it, they were your own, not these false eyes of a droid.
>The spirit that you spoke to, or you believed you spoke to, told you that if you took the crystal now, it would become a weapon.
>And through it, you would become a weapon for the Dark Side.
>But that has happened regardless.
>Did you truly speak to anything at all upon that world?
>Was it truly the Dark Side, reaching out to you, making you think you could find balance?
>Scorpan's words, his cackling laughter, ring in your mind and you close your hand around the crystal.
>What truly happened upon that planet?
>Why is nothing as it seems anymore?
>>27567888
>You are struck, then, with a terrible sense that you haven't been in control of yourself since the beginning.
>What if everything that came before---the Jedi Temple, your friends, the visions upon Mestare---were all simply part of a dream?
>Scorpan has brought you out of the dream, and there is pain and rage, yes, but at your core you feel an immense emptiness that has begun to form.
>Is it apathy?
>What truly fueled your desire to turn in Noteworthy?
>It was not anger over him wanting to leave the Sith, it wasn't out of some perverted sense of justice or malign righteousness.
>You felt nothing.
>This is what Scorpan has instilled in you, why he mocks you for being like a droid.
>Your emotions have become robotic.
>There exists the passion to avenge yourself, for a great rage yet burns within you, but it has made you callous and cold.
>Or, perhaps, it was losing everything else that did this to you.
>Your friends, your mentors, your chance at happiness... Opening up your
>palm again, you look upon the crystal.
>It reminds you of something else, from long ago.
>Your first focusing crystal that you used in your original lightsaber, the first one you constructed: Arbitrator.
>Anon's lightsaber, that is...
>>27567898
>But you remember the crystal, given to you by Coco.
>What has become of her now, since your return?
>That moment of passion you spent with her, that wonderful night...
>It seems so distant now, like a dream within a dream, no longer something you can feel.
>There is a cold, freezing terror that has since taken its place.
>The terror of never knowing if such a thing could ever come to be again.
>Instead of treasuring this memory because of that, it causes you to despair.
>Despite this hardened and cold exterior, inside there blows a storm of violent despair, tempered by control over your emotions but constantly threatening to overwhelm you.
>Why does this crystal evoke such memories and feelings from you?
>What does it truly represent?
>Once, you thought it would only come to you when you had discovered balance.
>You feel anything but balance within you now, and here you hold the crystal.
>Your rage, your despair, the empty hollowness within you, a void within
>your core... This is not grey, nor is it balance.
>This is the Dark Side, and you belong to it now.
>This crystal is a tool, a weapon to be used against your enemies.
>Whatever you may have felt about it once, no more.
>Now you have but one purpose: to serve the will of the Dark Side.
>For now, that means being dutiful and loyal to your master.
>But one day it will not be.
>Through use of the Force, you disassemble the Vehement as you sit in a meditative pose.
>Its components come apart, floating in the air as you remove the previous focusing crystal from its activator.
>>27567908
>Ever practical, you put the old crystal in a small pouch on your repurposed mining outfit before moving the new Mestarian crystal into its place.
>After making the necessary adjustments and securing it within the activator, you once more seal the crystal energy chamber around both it and the primary crystal, itself snug in its mount.
>The remainder of the lightsaber is then rejoined like the pieces of a puzzle, a unique combination that only you, as its creator, can master.
>The weapon is complete once more.
>Taking it in hand, you activate it, hearing the crisp snap of the magnetically-contained plasma spring to life from the hilt.
>The blade is still a fiery orange, but with the new focusing crystal, it has taken on a slightly different, brighter quality.
>You remember, in what seems a lifetime ago, the research you did at the Jedi Academy with Twilight.
>A flurry of painful memories accompanies the appearance of the twi’lek in your thoughts.
>You wonder if she has woken up, if she is well… what she must think of you now.
>Closing your eyes and breathing a deep breath through your mask, you focus on what you learned with her.
>She was the one who learned of the Mestarian crystals and their ability to cut through cortosis, which strangely enough, is one of the things that set you on the path to where you are now.
>It was said that they produced slightly curved blades, and observing your lightsaber now, you can see a very subtle curvature within the plasma itself.
>The magnetic field itself is still, for the most part, rigid and straight, but the plasma within is slightly narrower and thinner along two of its sides that meet to form a cutting edge, causing it to resemble a more traditional sword.
‘Similar to the ancient Force-imbued blades of the Je'daii Order…’ you recall the words from the book.
>Perhaps this is what gives the crystals of Mestare their cortosis-cutting ability?
>>27567916
>Or it could simply be a byproduct, as cortosis normally causes a lightsaber to short-circuit and deactivate, and the crystal may simply render the plasma immune to the harmful feedback.
>Regardless, it seems that now is the time to test the theory, because as you look upon the blade, you feel a shift in the ship around you.
>You are dropping out of hyperspace.
>You’ve arrived.
>True to the intel, the cloning facility orbits a dead planet.
>Approaching it, your ship is not hailed, nor does it detect anything but the basest of power with its sensors.
>That is a troubling revelation.
>Life support is up, but shields are down across the station, and it seems to be running on minimal power.
>Surely this is not normal?
>A standard space station would have many facilities and, presumably, a faculty that would require more energy than your ship is picking up.
>The hanger bay doors are sealed.
>No matter, you have another way inside.
>You take manual control and fly the ship towards the dark and lightless station, landing upon its side.
>Extending a docking tube, you lock the ship in place with magnetic landing clamps and power it down.
>You approach the docking port and open it up, seeing the metal of the hull.
>Lightsaber in hand, you jump upon it and carve a hole for yourself.
>>27567924
>Once complete, you use the Force to push it inwards.
>Darkness looms beyond, and the metal circle kicks up dust.
>You enter it and activate the lights in your mask to illuminate your path as you begin to explore the station.
>Your thoughts seem to be confirmed: it is abandoned.
>Room after room seems like it was hastily evacuated, with empty crates and turned-over tables.
>Where is everyone, you wonder?
>Did they know you were coming, ever since your battle on Manaan and your capture of the kaminoan?
>Determined to find evidence, you press onwards towards the heart of the station.
>Here, things start to become clearer as you open a door and discover a laboratory.
>The room has several tables with various instruments, but on almost each one is a tray with a dissection still on it, some in several states of decomposition.
>Upon investigation, you see that these are ysalamiri they were dissecting.
>The strange furred lizards are spread open, with small organs and bones removed.
>Some are more hollow than others, with jars containing various bits of their internal organs suspended in fluids.
>Seems like they were solely interested in the ysalamiri, as no other animals can be observed.
>What were they hunting for?
>Even with your relative inexperience with them, you would guess that the immunity to the Force possessed by the creatures is on a cellular level, not an organ that can be removed.
>Beyond this chamber is another door, leading to what appears to be an armory.
>>27567940
>Within this room is several sets of cortosis armor.
>Their weapons are not here, but the black-grey armor of the Force Hunters sits upon tables.
>Seems that they were in a hurry to leave, and left some of these behind.
>Approaching the armor, you inspect it.
>Holding up a helmet, you stare into the black eyes of the mask.
>It is much like the previous Force Hunters you encountered.
>Memories of those fights yet burn in your memory.
>Lightsaber in hand, you raise it and swing it at the cortosis helm experimentally.
>Like a hot knife through butter, you slice the mask in half.
>The upper half falls to the floor with a clang and you inspect the cut on the half still in your hand.
>The crystal works, it seems.
>It’s a shame there are no cortosis blades here, as they would make useful weapons---but perhaps you can make due with something else.
>You drop the mask and look on the table, spying a left arm.
>The arm is empty, as though it was waiting to be grafted onto one of the clones.
>Picking it up to look more closely at it, and to feel its weight---surprisingly light---an idea comes to your head.
>You take the components of the arm and put them away in your pack for later keeping.
>At the other end of the laboratory is a large door, leading to a massive central chamber.
>The circular room is lined with large tanks full of a clear liquid, each big enough to hold a full-grown man.
>Tubes and strange harnesses float within.
>Bacta tanks, perhaps?
>>27567997
>Or some other nutritious gelatin-like substance?
>Each of them are empty, however, with no subjects, so you can’t be certain.
>The room, except for a large computer at its heart, is empty.
>The terminal stretches up to the ceiling and appears to be powered down.
>Upon approaching it, you notice a single command prompt on a dim screen.
>Wiping the dust from it, you begin a startup procedure.
>Dim lights begin to come on from above, and each tank around the room lights up as well.
>A soft humming can be heard as power begins to return to the station.
‘Maybe now we can get somewhere…’ you think as the system reboots itself.
>Taking out the disk that Scorpan gave you, you insert it into a slot on the computer.
>It begins to download files at an alarming speed, even before the system fully finishes turning back on.
>As you watch its progress, indicated by a small readout on the device itself, a small beeping noise catches your attention.
>You move to the side of the computer and push aside a chair to look at the screen it is coming from.
>A ship is approaching the station.
‘Now what?’
>The scans cannot recognize any specific frequencies emanating from the vessel that would help identify it, but it is small, about the size of a freighter.
>It is approaching the station at a fast speed, and making towards the hanger bay.
‘Maybe it’s the owners… but I doubt it.’
>You feel something… strange… from the Force.
>>27568007
>As the ship grows nearer, it grows stronger, a resonance that is as familiar as it is difficult to discern.
>Where have you felt this before?
>Something strange about whoever is on that vessel…
‘The Force is with them!’ you realize.
>Who could it possibly be?
>The Jedi?
>Another Sith sent by Scorpan?
>Your hand hovers over the controls for the hanger.
>After a moment, you press down upon it, as though inviting the ship inside by opening the hanger up.
>The ship seems to take notice and its captain flies into the hanger.
>You try to bring up security feed, but cannot; someone has sabotaged it.
>You feel their presence as they disembark the craft—and it is more than one person, you realize.
>And the Force is with them both.
>Lightsaber in hand, you mask your signature in the Force as you have been trained and make for the shadows.
>Even with the power fully restored, the room is still quite dim, with plenty of places to hide.
>Pulling the hood of your cloak over your head, you wait.
>You feel them drawing nearer and nearer, until they’re just outside the room.
>Who are they?
>Why are they here?
>And why do they feel so… familiar?
>You hear the door opening with a hiss as it slides open, revealing two figures in darkness, one taller than the other.
>Their cloaks are dark and worn, with their hoods pulled over their heads.
>>27568018
>Something about them…
>They enter the room, their faces obscured from the light.
>Their robes are Jedi-like, and yet not quite…
>”I don’t detect anyone, master,” the shorter one speaks in a frighteningly familiar voice.
’That girl… no, it couldn’t be…’
>”Precisely,” the older one replies. “They will come to us.”
>They reach up to remove their hoods and your throat clenches as you find yourself short of breath.
>Master Luna… and Sunset.
>You are completely frozen as you watch them from your hiding place, unable to believe your fake eyes.
>It’s not possible…
>”I’m going to check the computer to see who has been here,” Sunset says as Luna inspects a nearby tank of fluid.
>The zabrak moves up to the keyboard and begins typing; as she does, you look upon her.
>Her fiery-colored hair has gotten longer, and her eyes still shine the same radiant color as before…
>She carries herself with a determination and confidence that you almost don’t recognize.
>She’s grown more powerful in her training… under Master Luna?
>But wasn’t she Celestia’s apprentice?
>Your eyes now stray to your former master.
>The pantoran looks much the same, only more battle-hardened.
>Her cloak and skin bear small scars, evidence of her time spent away from the temple.
>What adventures have these two been going on?
>And why are they here…?
>>27568050
>”Security systems around the station are fried,” Sunset says. “No video, no records…”
>Her hand curls into a fist and she slams the keyboard.
>Master Luna immediately turns around and approaches her to rest a hand on her shoulder.
>”Patience, Sunset. We have not yet exhausted this lead.”
>”I know, master, I know, but…”
>”We will find him yet.”
‘Him…’
>Could they be speaking of you?
>You feel something stir within you, something you have not felt in such a long time…
>Could it be hope?
>”Wait, what is this?” Sunset says, spying the disk you inserted earlier.
>”It appears to be a modified storage drive,” Luna says, walking around and inspecting it without removing it.
>Her eyes, suspicious of someone else being here, scan around the room.
>”Which means we are not alone…”
>As Sunset reaches for it, intending on pulling it out of the computer, you jolt upwards and step out of your hiding place.
>They both turn and look upon you as you stand perfectly still, staring at them from beneath your hood.
>You still cannot believe your eyes and ears that it is truly them…
>Sunset reaches for her belt, where a saberstaff hangs.
>”Identify yourself!” she demands, but Master Luna steps in front of her.
>The pantoran is looking upon you with burning, unblinking eyes.
>Her stare unnerves you; for some reason, it rattles you to the core.
“Step away… from the computer,” you say in a breathless voice.
>>27568056
>”Master… He’s a Sith,” Sunset says, her saber now in hand. “I can sense it.”
>”I sense something else…” Luna says, taking a step closer. “Something he wishes to hide…”
“Stay back, Jedi,” you warn her, but even to you your threat sounds empty and hollow.
>She shakes her head. “Something burns within you, dark one. Something you do not wish to come to light…”
>Sunset’s eyes dart between yourself and her. “Master?”
“I’m… I’m warning you, stand back!”
>”You wish to hide it so powerfully, so completely… and yet you cannot. The mask you hide yourself behind is almost as strong as your fear of the truth being discovered, but it isn’t.”
>A blue hand drifts upwards and she uses the force to gently lift the hood from your head, pulling it back.
>Upon the light reaching your mask, your body shakes somewhat.
>You close your eyes and turn your head, and you realize what you feel is shame.
>You don’t want them to see you, to see who you are or what you have become.
>Luna’s voice, firm and commanding, reaches your ears. ”Lift your head. Show me.”
>Slowly, you do as she bids, raising your face until the light of the room reveals your face and eyes.
>Your former master’s face now wears a visage of pain.
>”Oh, Anon… what did they do to you?”
>Sunset’s eyes widen and her jaw drops.
>”No, it can’t be, can it?” she moves up alongside Luna. “Anon, I---“
“Stay back!” you shout, suddenly fearful.
>You hold up your left hand, the mechanical fingers drawing their attention.
>>27568069
>Sunset gasps. “Your arm…”
>Luna is undeterred. “Anonymous, please, calm yourself.”
>Only now do you realize how quickly you are breathing.
>Your heart is racing---your grip on your lightsaber in your other hand is so tight that your fingers are turning white.
>The only thing you can do is ask a question.
“Why are you here?”
>”Looking for you!” Sunset says, putting a hand to her chest. “We’ve been searching the galaxy for---“
>She’s about to advance, but Luna stops her and you react by stepping backwards.
>Sunset looks as concerned as she is confused. “Anon… It’s okay. It’s me. It’s Master Luna!”
“No… Anon has died.”
>Sunset is still held back by Luna, who calmly and rationally speaks, “Then what do you call yourself now?”
“Nito,” you reply, barely a whisper.
>”Did you give yourself that name, or was it burned into you? I can see your scars… I can feel them.”
>”Please, take off your mask…” Sunset says.
“What do you think is underneath?” you reply, meeting her gaze. “I can’t remove it. It’s fused to my skin.”
>She gasps as she sees the skin around the mask and the scar tissue around your eyes.
>As she and Luna look upon the ruined husk that you have become, you sense their pity and it makes you feel horrible, like a ruined monster.
>But that is what you are now.
“How are you here?”
>”We have been tracking information relating to the Force Hunters,” Luna says. “…In the hopes that it would lead us to you. We knew you were searching for them.”
>>27568076
“But the Sith were the only ones who knew about this station!”
>Sunset’s eyes twitch with painful realization. “Then it’s true… You did join them…”
>You stare at her, meeting her gaze, knowing that the only thing she can see are milky white, emotionless orbs in your sockets.
>”Information about this station and its connection to the hunters was leaked only a few days ago,” Luna says. “We secured it from an information broker on Sullust.”
>Slowly, you start making your way over to the computer, keeping your distance from them.
>Luna speaks to you every step of the way.
>”Anon, when I returned to the Jedi Temple, I learned what happened to you. What you did.”
“They exiled me,” you say.
>”You have done that to yourself,” Luna replies. “I know that you felt you had no choice at the time, but---”
“I wanted revenge!”
>Her hand remains pointed in your direction, palm open and up to reflect her calm, rational manner of communication.
>”I know. You were lost. But you don’t have to be any longer.”
>You pause, halfway to the computer.
“I can’t go back…”
>”I’m not asking you to go back to the Jedi Temple, just to come with us.”
>Sunset’s eyes are pleading. “Anon, you don’t have to run anymore.”
“You don’t understand. They’ll kill me. There’s…”
>You avert your eyes, not wanting to tell them the truth.
>>27568084
>”We can protect you!” Sunset insists.
“No! There’s a bomb in my head.”
>They both stop as you point to your eyes.
“Behind these… When he tore them out and replaced them with these things.”
>Luna blinks as her brow furrows. “We may be able to remove it. There are ways to---“
“No,” you interrupt her. “You can’t. It’s tamper-proof. I have to do what he says or else he’ll kill me.”
>”Who?” Luna asks. “Who has turned you into this?”
“Scorpan,” you reply. “He… He is my master now, and I am learning the ways of the Dark Side.”
>Luna is passive, but the reaction from Sunset is much more visible.
>She mouths the name as if in disbelief.
>”Scorpan was my…” her voice trails off.
“What?”
>”Anon… I never told you, but before I joined the Jedi, I was on Korriban. I was a Sith in training, just like you are now.”
>You stare at her, wordlessly listening as she continues, “Scorpan was my master. He tried turning me into something horrible, and for a time, it was all I wanted… But I reached a point where I couldn’t continue and I knew I had to do something else.”
>She stares back at you. “But he never did anything to me like what he did to you.”
“It’s because he learned that I never meant to be a Sith,” you whisper. “I wanted to become powerful enough to avenge Master Luna when I thought she was---you were dead.”
>”You no longer need avenge me,” Luna insists.
“You’d do better to try and find Flash instead of me. He’s a prisoner of the Sith.”
>Luna’s brow raises. “I am glad he yet lives… But I would rather rescue you both.”
“I can’t leave now,” you once again insist. “You don’t understand what happened. He broke me. He cut me open and found what made me tick and put parts in that mean I can’t leave.”
>>27568094
>Sunset tries to move closer but is again held back by Luna, sensing your jumpy state.
>”Anon, please! Just come with us. We can hide and find a way to fix you.”
>You hear her pleading voice and you want to.
>Having seen them now, a surprisingly large part of you wants to, the part that still clings onto hope that you can go back to the way things were.
>And yet… you hold yourself back.
“I can’t,” you say, faltering a bit. “I just can’t.”
>Luna lowers her hand and continues her attempts to appeal to you. “Anon. I know what you are experiencing. Both Sunset and I do… We have, all of us, been to the Dark Side. You are in its thrall, but it has not claimed you fully yet. I know this.”
“There’s nothing,” you insist. “Nothing but the Dark Side. I know this now. I thought---I was fooled into thinking that I could find balance. A middle ground.”
>”And you can,” Luna says. “We all live with shades of darkness. Each of us in our heart carries doubt, and fear, and pain. But if you return, if you mean to face this alone… it will overshadow you and take you completely.”
>”Have you faced the sacrifice yet?” Sunset asks.
“The what?”
>”Every Sith reaches a point where they must take an innocent life to progress to their next level of training,” she explains.
“I’ve killed for the Sith,” you explain, thinking you’ve already been through such a trial. “I’ve become a weapon for them.”
>>27568107
>”Who have you killed?” Luna asks. “Soldiers? Mercenaries? Combatants? What about prisoners? Civilians? Someone with no means to defend themselves, at your complete mercy?”
You hesitate before answering. “No…”
>Sunset places a hand upon her heart. “I had to face that horrid trial, and I failed it. I ran, escaped… found the Jedi. I never took an innocent life for the Sith.”
>”It’s not too late,” Luna says. “You can still find balance. Sunset and I have both left the Jedi in search of you.”
“Left the Jedi? Like I---Anon did?”
>Luna then surprises you once more by opening her dark robe and removing a lightsaber from it.
>Not her own---but yours.
>The Arbitrator, constructed out of parts you scavenged on Ord Mantell.
>Seeing it brings back a number of memories---the most recent of which is handing it over to Grand Master Celestia.
>That can only mean that she took it from the Grand Master…
>”I know not if we have been declared Dark Jedi, but it would not surprise me for Celestia to label us as such. We are like you, Anon. We have faced the darkness, just as you have… but you needn’t face it alone.”
>You are very still.
>You know you could go with them, and you want to.
>But you can’t.
>Your legs won’t carry you towards them.
>Having backed towards the computer, you remove the disk and put it away in your cloak.
“I’m sorry,” you say. “Once, I would have. In a heartbeat. But I’m not the same person you left.”
>”I don’t believe that,” Luna says. “I think you are, but you are afraid. And that’s fine, because we’re all afraid. Sunset and I both fear for you.”
>>27568133
>”Listen to Master Luna. She’s been teaching me how to become a seer, and I’ve been learning a lot of things while we’ve been searching for you. We’ve tried to look for you in the Force but it’s been difficult.”
>”The Force is cloudy where you are involved,” Luna says. “But I have known this ever since we first met.”
“I don’t understand. What do you mean by ‘cloudy’?”
>”While you were a student at the Jedi Academy, I sensed a great many strange things about you. I tried to look into your future, but all I saw was a grey mist… And I thought that, if you confronted the things in your past, you might have a clearer future. So I used a gift of mine, and through the Force, I changed your dreams.”
>Again you are still, as you remember the dreams you used to have.
>The spice mines of Kessel, the energy spiders…
>Your brother and his sacrifice for you.
>The guilt that wracked your young mind until you convinced yourself that none of it was real and you forgot it all.
>And the grey mist…
“That was you? All of it?”
>”No, Anon, it was you. Everything in your dreams was your creation, from your consciousness. I merely allowed it to come forth. Through the Force, I watched and felt your dreams---felt your fear. I knew that you needed my help. It was one of the many reasons I wanted to become your master.”
“There is no grey anymore,” you shake your head. “I don’t have those dreams.”
>>27568147
>”That is because we have been separated. But now, we can continue your training, we can---“
“No, you don’t understand. There isn’t any grey anymore!”
>You storm over to the computer and remove the disk, shoving it into a pocket.
“Maybe once, long ago, I could have learned balance. But I can’t now.”
>”You can!” Luna insists. “No matter how far gone a soul seems swallowed in darkness, it can be saved! You always have a choice!”
>”Even those who have taken innocent life can be redeemed…” Sunset adds.
“I can’t choose for myself. Someone else holds the control. I’m just a tool for the Sith now, a weapon! He took away the control and this… thing… is all that is left!”
>Sunset pushes past Luna and starts moving towards you.
>Still jumpy, you turn and activate your lightsaber, holding it up in front of you defensively.
>She stops, halfway between both you and Master Luna, her eyes a storm of emotion.
>Your orange blade burns, but the hand that holds it is unsteady and nervous.
>You quiver as she speaks.
>”Anon, you’re not a ‘thing’ and you’re in control. All we want to do is help you. We’ve been looking for you ever since we left the temple.”
“You’re looking for a ghost,” you say with a trembling voice. “You’re not going to find Anon anymore.”
>”You’re wrong, because I’m looking right at him, no matter what he says.” She takes a deep breath. “I’m looking at the person I love.”
>Now you no longer shake, nor tremble or quiver.
>You are completely still as she steps closer to you.
>”And that’s why I know that you---Anon or Nito---won’t hurt me.”
>>27568161
>She steps past your lightsaber and slowly wraps her arms around you, pulling you into a tight embrace.
>It’s wonderful.
>She feels so warm and comforting.
>You deactivate your weapon and let it drop to the floor, like Sunset once did for you when she refused to fight you.
>Your arms find their way to her back as her face turns towards your neck, allowing you to feel her breath.
>She feels alive and warm and wonderful.
>For a moment, there is no dark nor light, no Sith nor Jedi, no wider galaxy to worry about.
>It’s just you and her.
>”I’ve missed you so much…” she says, bringing up a hand to feel the back of your head.
>Her fingers trace the straps of the mask that have been burnt onto your skin.
>”You’re in such pain. I can feel it inside of you. But I’m here for you now.”
“I want to,” you admit, choking a bit. “I want to go.”
>”Then come with us!” she says, laughing a bit. “Just come with us…”
>Luna lingers nearby, watching with uncertainty.
“I can’t…”
>”You can!” she replies, planting a soft kiss on your neck that sends shivers down your spine.
“I’m sorry, I…”
>”We can go somewhere,” she whispers. “Away from all of it, all of this. It could be just you and I.”
>A vision comes to your mind at that moment---that of you and Sunset running through the fields of Mestare, laughing, playing, loving each other.
>Free, without a worry in the galaxy.
>And for a moment, all you want to do is say yes, and go with them.
>>27568171
>Her hand wraps around your mechanical fingers, gently examining them.
>”I don’t know what he did to you, but we can fix it,” she says, before stepping back to look you in the eyes.
“Maybe you’re right,” you say. “Maybe there is hope for me.”
>Her smile broadens and she wipes a tear away from her eye.
“But not now.”
>You let go of her hand and step back.
“Not until I finish what I started.”
>Her smile vanishes. “Anon, please, just come with us.”
>Luna steps up alongside Sunset. “If you go back to Korriban, we can’t guarantee your safety.”
>”We spent all this time looking for you!”
“I have to do what needs to be done,” you say. “I have to return, or else I’ll die, and that won’t allow any of us to get what we want.”
>Sunset is about to step forward again, but Luna holds her back.
>When the Padawan looks up at the master questioningly, Luna speaks, “I have never been able to properly discern your future, Anon. It is fogged and grey, obscuring my sight. But I know what I have felt, and continue to feel: you are heading towards something.”
“What do you mean, master?” you say, accidentally referring to her once more as your master out of old familiarity.
>”You are approaching a shatterpoint. I know not when, or where… but the thread of your life, a single cord up until the moment, will unravel into many fibers.”
“Shatterpoint…”
>You remember reading about the strange Force-technique and pseudo-philosophy surrounding a mysterious phenomenon known only as the shatterpoint.
>>27568187
>Simply put, every physical object has a weakness that can be exploited in order to destroy or change it.
>But when applied to time itself, it refers to a moment of critical juncture, during which even the slightest small changes or choices could have wildly different effects on the future.
>”I detected a shatterpoint in your future but I have never known when it will manifest… but I know that it will happen soon---but not today. And neither Sunset nor I will be there for it.”
>Sunset doesn’t understand. “Master… you don’t mean to let him leave, do you?”
>”I want him to come with us. I want us to help him and heal him.” She looks back at you. “But I also know that he will not come today.”
>”And we’re supposed to just let him leave?” Sunset says. “After all we’ve been through together, looking for him? We can’t follow him to Korriban, the Sith would outnumber us a hundred to one!”
>”The choice won’t be ours to make, my apprentice.”
>At that moment, as predicted by the master seer, the station rumbles.
>The lights flicker for a moment.
>”What was that?” Sunset asks.
>”The station is under attack,” Luna says. “I only just now sensed their approach.”
>You and Sunset both look back at the computer screen to see multiple ships approaching.
>”This was a trap,” Luna says. “The Force Hunters evacuated when they learned their position had been compromised and waited for both the Sith and the Jedi to show up. They are the ones who leaked the information about the station to the information broker. I see it now…”
>”Then we need to leave!” Sunset says as the station once more jolts from another attack. “Anon! Come with us!”
>A nearer explosion causes the floor to shake and the lights to once more flicker.
>>27568196
“I can’t,” you say, shaking your head. With your real hand, you summon your lightsaber. “I have to go back.”
>”You could die!” Sunset says as more explosions begin to rock the station.
>The wall nearby cracks, the metal breaking open.
“I won’t,” you promise. “I never knew that I had you as a choice, but now I do!”
>You back up towards the exit of the room you came through.
“I’ll find a way to come back to you, I promise!”
>”Anon!”
>Sunset tries to run, but another attack from a ship outside causes the computer to explode in a shower of sparks and flame.
>Luna grabs Sunset once more and they make for the exit.
>Across the shaking room, you turn and look upon them.
>They make eye contact with you one final time, their eyes lingering, with Sunset’s far more pained.
>But Master Luna knows something---she has seen the future, and knows you are heading towards something that not even she can alter.
>The shatterpoint…
>You make for your ship, running through the crumbling halls.
>Life support and structural integrity is fast failing.
>Leaping up through the hole, you reach your ship and quickly deactivate the boarding coupling.
>Reactivating your systems, you disengage the landing clamps and float away from the station.
>You can see several ships of varying sizes attacking the station with volleys of lasers.
>And you can also see a freighter---Luna and Sunset---turning towards them and attacking them!
>Their ship is small, but fast, with little hope of destroying them.
>You realize then that they are just giving you a distraction, to ensure your escape.
>>27568210
>The notion once more touches your heart, when you thought nothing else could.
>Even now, they still care for you, to give you a chance to do what must be done.
>And Sunset still loves you…
>With renewed hope, you set course for Korriban.
>Perhaps there is a way to escape this terrible fate after all.
>When you thought there was only darkness, light came back into your life for the briefest of moments when she held you.
>And what of Master Luna's words about the shatterpoint?
>Could they be true?
>You've never detected it, but she is a master seer and would know more of such things.
>Are you heading towards a shatterpoint, a moment of great choice?
>Between light and dark?
>Or, perhaps, there is still a path to balance?
>As your ship kicks into hyperspace, you can only wonder at what lies ahead... and the choice you must eventually face.
>>27568234
That's all for now! More will be coming very soon.
It feels good to be back. The pastebin will be updated shortly with all the new material.
In the meantime, I've posted the link of this thread to the Steamgroup, so hopefully the other writers will be coming back so share their material. Regardless, I'll be continuing to write and share material until we reach the end of the story---the Shatterpoint.
Stay tuned for more!
>>27568263
Well, it appears I've exceeded the maximum space for a pastebin with Anonymous, Dark Jedi.
So here's a link to a new paste I created for part 2.
http://pastebin.com/c4yYUP6S
>>27567869
Been a while since I saw this thread again, what happened to you all?
>>27568425
I was on vacation.
>>27567869
Feels good to back in this thread
>>27568779
It does.
I've been in talks with the drawfriend, and something special is still planned and on the way.
>>27568796
can't wait!
btw just read the update and i must say you did a good job as always.
>>27569103
Thank you, Anon. More's on the way.
I'm really in the mood to write Star Wars lately because I picked up a lot of old EU omnibuses while I was on vacation.
You ever read about this dude Dass Jennir? I never did until I read his comics and he's one of my new favorites behind Kyle Katarn.
>>27567869
And the threads return just as my holidays end.
>>27569271
Nope, never heard of him myself. Would you be so kind to enlighten me on who he is?
>>27569421
Sorry for the timing.
>>27569434
A Jedi general fighting during the Clone Wars against the nosaurian people who had allied with the CIS, he finds himself targetted by his own soldiers when Order 66 comes. Forced to fight alongside the nosaurians, he becomes their new general and leads them into battle against the clones, but the overwhelming numbers and resources of the newly-formed Empire crush their army and Dass, along with his new lizard-buddy Bomo Greenbark (think Rambo if he were a short lizardman) are forced to escape with a crew of smugglers.
Over the course of his adventures as a Jedi-in-hiding from the Empire, Dass struggles to maintain his Jedi ethics and ideals in a galaxy that has turned to darkness as he faces the Dark Side when forced to murder a slave trader who had sold Bomo's daughter. Dass goes on to grow a wicked beard and bang a few hot chicks.
I highly recommend picking up Marvel's omnibusses "Empire" Volume 1 and 2 for his complete story.
>>27569521
Well it does sound like an interesting story. Maybe i'll pick them up in the near future.
I definitely recomment them.
I also picked up New Republic volume 1 and 2, The Other Sons of Tattooine, Early Victories and Infinities (one of which ends with Yoda crashing the Death Star into Palpatine).
>>27569653
>Yoda crashing the death star into Palpatine.
Wait what?
![SWI_ANH_DeathStar_Destruction[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/NKePuVc.jpg "SWI ANH DeathStar Destruction[1]")
>>27569777
"Star Wars Infinities" are what-ifs that portray alternate universes.
"What if Luke missed the shot on the Death Star" ends with Yoda crashing the Death Star onto the imperial palace on coruscant with the Emperor inside.
A lot happens between Luke missing the shot and that moment, obviously.
So where is everyone?
I imagined there would at least be some discussion going on right now.
Now we just need the other writers to com back.
I hope they haven't forgotten about us.
>>27570267
>>27570331
Just going through some pastebins. Still a shame there was never more about starfighter pilot Anon.
If I was any good at it I'd try my hands at some ace combat type stuff, but I can't write dialogue or characters to save my life.
>>27570267
I'm here. Ready to talk about anything.
What is your favorite ground-vehicle in the SW universe?
>>27570331
I'm confident they will.
>>27570340
>If I was any good at it
You'll never know unless you try it.
Give it a shot, don't be shy.
>>27570349
I'm a Separatist guy but they don't really have any vehicles in that sense, so i'd probably have to pick the AT-TE.
Yours?
>>27570400
They may not have had vehicles in the traditional sense, but I always liked the CIS vehicles in the Battlefront series.
>>27570386
If I get a good idea maybe. But as said earlier my holidays just ended so no clue on time.
>>27570349
>>27570400
The only decent looking SW tank.
>>27570452

>>27570596
Thanks Anon. It's good to be back.
Sarge, you have a fantastic collection. I'm jealous.
>>27570567
>>27570663
Good to see you, Solaire!
Thanks. The four in the upper left of >>27570532 are all fringe characters---Tuskens, jawas, ugnaughts, various alien races---all sorted and separated into different sections, segregated like god intended.
>>27570680
Serge. Has Scorpan by chance put recording device in Anon/Nito's head? I hope not but I wouldn't put it past him.
>>27570745
Hey, thanks for the idea!Don't worry, no.
>>27570760
Thank goodness.
>>27570797
"Haha, I was recording you all along AGAIN! Time for torture!"
In fairness, it would be a good lesson for Anon to learn, but I don't think I would pull that a second time.
>>27570629
I want to get off Grievous' ride
>>27570267
Reading the Inquisitor and Bounty Hunter Anon stories. I've been thinking about revamping my Sith Warrior Anon attempt from two months(?) ago. Just need to really decide on what era I want to write in.I feel the Old Republic is an over-done era.That and video games have been distracting me.
>>27570349
Hands down the AT-AT. They are the cause of me being an Imperialboo.
>>27570349
TIE maulers are my go to vehiclesin EaW at least.
>decent firepower and mobility, with fuck-you tank treads to annihilate infantry.
>>27570830
While I have your ear. Could Anon ever get his real eyes and arm back? It would be a perfect way of getting back at Scorpan, all that work to make his new slave bend to his will all for nothing. Imagine.
Scorpan has gotten some very interesting reports from Mestare. So he takes Anon/Nito back to that temple Anon found. Once they arrive they are greeted by the spirit of the temple, and the spirit being all like 'You hane come far young one' and spirit tells Scorpan that he can't go with Anon/Nito. So Anon/Nito goes through the trials and eventually comes to which if filled with gray smoke. A voice tells him stand in the middle of the room, he does and the voice tells to meditate on every thing in his journey so far. When he meditates Nito finds himself standing in a white and black void. Anon stands opposite him, he is wearing white robes. Nito in the same but black instead. Then they fight but are evenly matched. A third man appears wearing grey. Nito attacks but is killed quickly. Anon thanks the mysterious man, but the man attacks and kills him. Someone wakes up, his head hurts like hell and he can't see because everything is to bright. He quickly realizes that Scorpan is coming but he's too tired to even stand. He tries get up but his hand slips on his old metal arm lying on the floor. The last thing he sees before losing consciousness is Scorpan standing there with complete shock in his eyes.
This is not me telling you to make it so, but you know food for thought. Let me know what you think.
>>27568263
>>27568339
aww yis. Can we hope for a couple epilogues after the end?
>>27571627
Personally I'd love for him to get his face and eyes back, but not his arm. Giving him back his true face seems like pretty good justice to me, and probably a more 'normal' looking arm.
On a side note, I really want Flash to see what's happened to anon because of his refusal to escape with him
>>27571910
I don't want to spoil anything, but when the Shatterpoint comes, the readers will get to choose their own ending.
>>27571627
You definitely have a lot of interesting ideas, and rest assured, more Mestare and justice for Scorpan is on its way, but I have plans for where the story is headed. Scorpan is convinced that Anon saw nothing on Mestare, and that nothing is there. Anon isn't sure anymore if he actually did see anything, due to Scorpan's influence. Did anything actually happen on Mestare, or did he imagine any of it?We'll find out.
It pleases me that Zephyr's color scheme can also fit a Mirialan.
Stay tuned for an update coming today.
So how long has it been since Sepnon posted here? I'm thinking of rewriting my CIS story with an opener similar to his, with Anon taking his fleet to Equus and manipulating the locals for the advancement of his agenda.
>>27574029
Sepnon hasn't posted here in over a year.
>>27574048
feelsbadman
>>27574048
Alright, looks like I'll be busy then. Here's a link to my story as it is if anyone wants to read it. When I eventually do this, it's not going to be the same story at all, so keep that in mind.
http://pastebin.com/i5yNCzPK
>>27574101
Really looking forward to it, after watching TCW that era has become one of my favorites, clones can be extremely badass.
I actually like Kylo Ren.
just woke up bump
I have no idea how many there is in this thread right now (because of different timezones and the like.)
but what's your favorite army in the SW universe?
Mines the separatists Droid army.
>>27575429
I like the Old Republic-era Sith ground troops
going out for a little while so can't bump the thread
Holy shit this thread is actually back and sarge has posted a shit ton of green i can barely contain this erection
I'm gonna reread everyone's stories before I update mine. I wrote tons during our vacation, but I scrapped a huge chunk of it, so I need to write more.
Plus, everything I do want to use still needs to be edited and revised and everything before it's post worthy. So it might be a little while. This thread's return was a pleasant surprise for me, but a surprise nonetheless. I'm not ready yet.
>>27575429
This man has good taste.
>>27572031
The reason I him to get his arm back is because I think the cyborg thing has be done to death.
Anakin Skywalker, Malak, Malgus, Maul, Grievous, I could go on. Don't me wrong I love the story,
and sarge baby I love you too BUT.(And this a big fat smelly but) The hole 'Ha ha you're a droid now'
thing that Scorpan repeats ad nauseam got old mindblowingly fast for me. I know it's your story,
so by all means ignore me. But please fix Anon's body, give Scorpan a fate worse than death,
resolve the Coco situation, and have Anon set out to defend the force hunter like he wanted in the beginning.
Sincerely that one unimportant anon.
>>27567869
I think you took the others by surprise. so it may take a bit for them to get back. I hope you more in store for us or else this could get boring fast
I happy to see this thread is back.
Welcome back everyone, hope you had a good break.
A quick riddle!
Why is the Jedi never lonely?
>>27576848
Because he is one with the force?
>>27576445
Rest assured that in 40% of the planned endings, Anon gets a normal arm.
>>27576857
you could say that but not really the answer i wanted.
>>27576848
Why did the angry Jedi cross the road?
>>27576883
I don't know. Why did he cross the road?
>>27576898
To get to the Dark Side... I'll show my out.
>>27576904
Is it bad that i actually laughed a little at that one?
>>27576904
How many Jedi does it take to screw in a lightbulb?Depends on the Jedi, Anakin and Luke need a hand.
>>27576939
Why is Grievous so lonely?He got no body!
Why do younglings have trouble using the Force?Because they're all dead.I'm sorry
>>27575429
My favorite is the Sith Empire from The Old Republic. The combination of man and droid forces crushed the Republic.
>>27575952
Mah man.
>>27576445
Malgus is not a cyborg, though. He just has a respirator.
>>27577685
No. He is definitely a cyborg. Nowadays you are considered a cyborg if you have a hearing aid ffs
>>27577722
Just double checked the Wookieepedia page. A respirator counts as a cybernetic. Doesn't really make sense, but whatever.
>>27577746
>>27577722
>>27577685
>>27576445
I think, fundamentally, cybernetics are an important part of the setting. We deal with people who wield laser swords and limbs are easy to get chopped off. A lot of people in the SW universe have some kind of mechanical augmentation, it's just a normal part of life.
I think it was this thread I made some drawing of a modded Venator with some Reb transport in front of it for.Was that for your story Sarge? Not all that far into it yet.
I can't for the love of me find it on my own HD anymore, does anyone have it saved?Might've been /co/
>>27577799
I know you have a reputation for being the Valve of these threads and all. But when can we expect more from you? Hours? Days? Weaks?
>>27577859
I'm writing at the moment.
>>27578235
Remember dude. The best writing is often rewriting.
>>27578382
I often do, but thanks
Does anyone have the lightsabers from Sarge's story?
>>27578737
Drawings or 3d models?
>>27578737
Yeah, I have all of them.
Which would you like?
>>27578830
>>27578795
Both if possible. All of 'em if you could.
>>27578927
>>27578961
>>27578970
>>27578982
>>27578995
>>27577831
I do remember someone doing that but I can't for the life of me remember what it was for, do you think it could have been just something so we could get a feel for your work?
>>27575429
Republic, I really like the teamwork between Jedi and clones. Although Sith empire is a close second because it was pretty similar,If it was still cannon it might have been my first choice.
>>27579009
>>27579034
>>27579047
>>27579057
Shit man did you draw all of these? They look fantastic. I'm really liking Rarity's and Luna's.
>>27579081
No, Saberanon made them. I wish I could. He said they were easy to make, but I can't do it.
>>27579032
I honestly cant remember how we got around to doodling stuff. I think I just felt like drawing and asked if anyone wanted some ships or vehicles drawn.
Someone requested the droid fighter and someone else the modded cruiser.
Acclamator not Venator now that I think about it.
>>27577831
>Was that for your story Sarge?
No, definitely not, sorry
>>27579089
I'm new to this thread. Where can I read what has been writen so far? The pastebin in the OP has been removed.
>>27579131
It's still there, try refreshing.
>>27579131
I just opened it and it works fine on my end.

>With newfound elation, you quickly go about your work, busying yourself with a new task while your ship travels to Korriban.
>Your fingers fly to your pack, excitedly taking out the cortosis gauntlet.
>Motivation and energy surge through you as you examine it.
‘Calm down,’ you think to yourself. ‘You can’t let them know that anything has changed, Anon.’
>Wait…
>You pause as you realize that you just thought of yourself as Anon and not Nito.
>Then not only have you found new hope to escape the Sith, you’ve learnt that Anon is not truly dead yet.
>Underneath your mask, you smile to yourself; despite the slight pain it brings your cheeks as they stretch against the seal.
>Returning to your focus on the cortosis gauntlet, you take out your saber and begin to work on it.
>Using the sharp blade of the Mestarian-crystal-focused blade, you are able to carve several chunks out of the hollow arm.
>>27580566
>By superheating one side of each piece, you can then graft them onto your mechanical arm.
>The process takes up the entire duration of your trip as you carefully put each piece into place, positioning them so that they will not disrupt the normal functions of your arm.
>Having finished the work, you now observe your new, cortosis-armored limb.
>It looks and feels heavier, no longer seeming quite so skeletal.
>In fact, it almost looks normal.
>As you stand up and test its weight, getting used to how it feels, you feel the ship drop out of hyperspace once more.
>Heading up to the cockpit, you look out and see Korriban beyond, the reddish-orange ball of dust and darkness that it is.
>You no longer face it with dread or apathy, but you must hide your elation and hope.
>If Scorpan smells it out, he will only make your time here worse.
>What’s more, you could be making another horrible mistake.
>What if he finds out the truth, that you still now plan to leave?
>Perhaps you shouldn’t…
>Maybe the path of the Sith is truly the path you must take.
>Shaking your head, you banish such thoughts.
>Now is not the time for conflicting feelings---he will detect them.
>Preparing yourself, you take a few deep breaths and fall back into the proper persona.
>No feelings, no emotion, no drive---only Nito.
>Guiding the ship to the hanger at the academy, you submit the entrance codes and land it within the bay.
>>27580578
>You walk down the exit ramp and back onto solid ground for the first time since leaving.
>As you stride towards the nearby door, a voice calls out.
>”Nito! Halt.”
>You stop and turn to look over your shoulder at an approaching figure.
>Ahuizotl.
>The trianii is approaching you, and he bears a look of ill-temperedness upon his feline face.
“Ahuizotl.”
>”That is LORD Ahuizotl to you, whelp,” he says, stopping a few yards away and folding his arms. “It is customary to kneel to a lord.”
“You are not my master.”
>”No, but I am your superior,” he says, taking a few steps closer.
>At this moment you notice that his prehensile tail is coiling behind him with one of his three lightsabers wrapped up in its grasp.
>You meet his yellow-eyed gaze.
>”I think it’s time you were given a proper lesson about your place underneath my boot.”
“Your paw, you mean, kitty-cat.”
>He scowls, showing yellowed and sharp teeth.
>Both hands come out, holding his other two sabers before all three click on.
>”I have not yet retaliated for your insult when you destroyed one of my sabers! You think me beaten? Had Lord Scorpan not interfered, I would have destroyed you!”
“I would like to see you try.”
>”Your wish is granted, fool!”
>He dashes forwards, all three lightsabers at the ready.
>With one quick motion, the Vehement is in hand, blocking two of his attacks.
>The third, his tail, comes across his side and aims at your midsection.
>>27580586
>A quick jump gets you out of the way, but Ahuizotl is on you once more, attacking relentlessly with unpredictable strikes.
>You keep mobile, keeping your feet moving, blocking or dodging his attacks in a reactionary state.
>But even falling back upon Soresu can be physically taxing.
>His stamina is great and more than a match for your defense.
>But you don’t plan to wear him down through defense alone, oh no.
>You need only wait for the right moment…
>He goes for your legs with one saber while chopping downwards with his tail, keeping his third reserved for where you end up.
>But you surprise him by pushing off the ground and leaping upwards, onto a nearby docked ship.
>He growls and leaps after you, landing on its wing.
>”You cannot run from me, Nito!”
“Why run from a house pet?”
>He leaps forth again, striking with all of his rage.
>Playing right into your hands.
>Once more you are defensive as you switch your lightsaber to your left hand, blocking each strike until you see your opening.
>After parrying one of his attacks, you purposefully leave yourself open to attack from the left.
>Having successfully baited him, he raises all three lightsabers and spins towards you.
>This attack would not kill you, but wound you.
>He wouldn’t risk truly killing Scorpan’s prized toy, but because of this, you are able to defeat him.
>>27580621
>You place your arm---your fake arm---right in the path of all three of his weapons.
>You can see his smile as he thinks you beaten, but when his lightsabers connect with the new cortosis plating upon the arm, his smile disappears.
>Each of his weapons deactivates, short-circuiting and shorting out.
>His eyes grow wide as all three crimson blades shrink back into their hilts.
>He leaps back and presses on them again and again, trying to get them to activate.
>”What? No! How did---“
>He looks at your arm.
>”You… You little---!”
“For someone who prides himself on his unorthodox fighting, you are terribly predictable.”
>So stunned is he, that when you swing your lightsaber, he barely has time to react.
>But you weren’t aiming at him, not specifically.
>With one swipe, you slice through the hilts of the two sabers in his hands, causing a small display of sparks as the two heads of his weapons hit the ship at his feet only to roll away.
>One simple attack, and you’ve achieved double Sun Djem---a personal first.
>The Sith looks upon you with shock and utter disdain.
“First it was one, now it is two. Next time it will be all three, and perhaps a limb as well,” you warn him.
>Hopping off the craft, you make for the exit, putting your lightsaber away.
>You can feel his frustration and anger mounting, but you leave before he can properly retaliate.
>After all, it will be several minutes before his only remaining lightsaber functions once more.
>You allow a small smirk at the effectiveness of your new cortosis arm---no wonder the Force Hunters are covered head to toe in the stuff.
>But you quickly compose yourself as you round a corner, only to come face-to-face with Maud.
>You haven’t seen the grey-skinned girl since your mission to Manaan.
>>27580640
>Her half-lidded eyes stare blankly into your own, her face not conveying any emotion.
>She is blocking your forward path, and the mere sight of her raises frustrating emotions.
>”So, it is true. You’re alive.”
“I can almost sense your disappointment.”
>”You’re wrong, as usual. I prefer you alive.”
“And why is that?” you ask, holding up your fake arm. “Do you actually anticipate the moment when I will pay you back for this?”
>”I anticipate the moment when you will try and fail.”
>You drop your arm back to your side and stare her down.
“You don’t know the kind of power I wield now. Do you think your little rocks and telekinesis could save you if I wanted you dead?”
>Again, she betrays no emotion as she speaks in her monotone voice.
>”You already want me dead. But you’re just a slave under Lord Scorpan’s will. And as he has forbidden you from killing me, you could be the most powerful Force-user in the galaxy and it still wouldn’t matter. You’re just a slave.”
>You take a step closer, brazenly towering over her and looking more closely into her eyes.
“And what are you?”
>”Someone who still has their arm.”
>She steps aside and allows you to pass.
>”Go on. I’m sure Lord Scorpan is waiting for his favorite pet.”
>You are about to walk on, but something occurs to you then.
>Turning to face her fully, you cross your arms.
>>27580651
“You want what I have, don’t you?”
>She doesn’t immediately reply, but continues staring.
“You want to be his pupil. The one he teaches his dark secrets to, the one he grooms to become a true Sith.”
>She seems about to speak when you approach and place your metal arm against the stone wall of the dark hallway, pinning her to it.
“You’ve coveted my position ever since Dromund Kaas, haven’t you? When you abandoned me to die in that temple and tried to earn Scorpan’s favor.”
>She maintains her emotionless face. “You know nothing.”
“But I could. As much as I hate him, Scorpan has taught me valuable secrets… things he would never teach you.”
>She suddenly breaks her emotionless visage and lets pride slip through her lips.
>”I deserve it.”
“Do you now? Even though I’ve bested you at every turn? Even though he recognizes my power, and has shown you no favor?”
>Once more she is about to protest before you raise your other hand and hold it near her head.
“You left me to die because you’re afraid you’re only second-best. And that is what you are: a second-rate Force-user, all sad and alone. Fit for fodder in the academy’s army, but not for a Sith.”
>She doesn’t react, not outwardly at least.
>But you can sense something stirring beneath.
“Have I touched a nerve? And here I thought you had no nerves to touch. Is there something resembling a soul beneath that grey flesh?”
>Reaching inwardly with the Force, you begin to use the power that Scorpan has taught you.
>All the while weakening her mental barriers.
“There is, as it turns out. You might like to hide it, to appear as though nothing matters, and perhaps most of the time you truly feel as though nothing does---but it was not always this way.”
>>27580667
>”I’ll… I’ll kill you…”
“You could try and kill me. You’d fail, of course, but it would at least give me an excuse.”
>Her eyes twitch slightly as your hand grows nearer, gently touching her now-sweating forehead.
“What is this I feel inside of you? A memory? Why, in the face of knowing you aren’t good enough, does your mind conjure an image of… a farm?”
>Her eyes widen and she reaches for her lightsaber.
>With your mechanical hand, you grab hold of her wrist and pin it to the wall, keeping her from her weapon.
>Now your hand is upon her forehead, draining the knowledge.
>Her brow furrows as she attempts to fight you with her telekinesis, but you are in turn flooding her mind with static noise, distracting her and making it difficult for her to concentrate.
“Yes, I see a farm… You picture it so clearly. A rocky planet. Why did you run away from it?”
>”S-stop…” She struggles against your power.
“You can’t fight off this power. What makes you think you deserve to wield it?”
>You probe more deeply, finding the root of her insecurities.
>You see the farm, and then it is burning.
>A family in peril, screaming---swallowed by flames.
>Maud suddenly gasps and falls to her knees, her back sliding down the wall.
>When you lower your hands and step back, you look upon her.
>The only thing that tells you the truth of how she is feeling is a single tear running down her cheek.
“You killed them, didn’t you?”
>She is silent, but her silence speaks volumes.
“Your pain doesn’t make what you did to me right, nor does it mean that you deserve power.”
>You turn and walk away, pausing only briefly to add one more thing.
“It also doesn’t mean that the way of the Sith is the only path open to you.”
>Leaving her behind, you walk on, allowing her to reflect on what just happened.
>>27580681
That's all for now. Pastebin is updated!
More coming soon.
>>27580688
It's so awesome to have you back and writing, Sarge. Hope you had a nice holiday.
Also, really loving this change of events in the story.
>>27580688
Now that was intense.was kinda hoping that maud would tackle him to the ground and viciously hatefuck him
>>27580804
>Hope you had a nice holiday.
Was a great time, I really needed it.
>>27580904We're not done yet, trust me.
good work
>>27577831
It was for Churros's story.
Also, It's good to be back. I need to catch up after a wild May.
>>27580904
Fuck you m8, you're paying for my new desk.
>>27584021

It's nice to see that Anon is still an asshole despite his newfound hope. Was worried he was going to go full-on good guy again.
We need more discussion guys.
Let's talk about how godlike all the prequels were.
>>27586628
The only good thing to come out of the prequels was the EU material that came after.
Alrigt discussion time dont want this to end up like last time. What are your favourite comics/ novels in the nucanon so far? Also they're going to release the new han solo comic this month and there's an ahsoka novel coming out in october.
>>27586773
I'll be honest I read exactly zero comics on SW.
>>27586792
Same here
>>27586794
Ditto.
>>27586628
To be honest, I thought the prequels were good from a story side, they just were executed poorly.
>>27586637
>>27586911
George Lucas did nothing wrong. All hail Supreme Leader Binks.
Getting into the inquisitor story (http://pastebin.com/zbdGipz8), and just asking if it's actually finished, or is on hiatus for the next forever?
>>27567869
I was just about to make a thread asking if this was done forever
>>27588044
everything went on hiatus forever. I'm hoping the other authors come back but so far I don't know if he intends to keep writing.
>>27588156
All we really need right now is the other writers to say something along the lines of "Green inbound". Then we're good.
>>27588186
If it's anything I'm still trying my damnest to get at least a few scenes for something new involving pilot/mercenary Anon out.
Might take a while though at the speed I'm writing this as is, and given that I don't have a big picture yet.
No promises and all that jazz though.
I remember I had this idea for a bumbling imperial officer who had the galaxy's worst luck somehow becoming really high ranked due to a series of mishaps. Eventually he would wind up either crushing the rebellion, or crushing the empire (it doesn't really matter) by accident. He'd wind up killing several skilled force users by total accident (think Janitor Anon from PeteQ), evade a team of bounty hunters by getting so fucking lost that he flies into an asteroid field, and destroy the headquarters of (insert rival faction) by forgetting to open the doors. He doesn't have to have force powers (in fact the story might be better off without) but the idea of a bumbling sith apprentice accidentally killing a jedi because he gets disarmed and his poorly made lightsaber explodes in the jedi's hand, is hilarious.
>>27586773
I've only read two cannon books, Dark Disciple and Lords of the Sith, but I plan on reading more. If you have any interest in what happens to Ventress after TCW I would recommend Dark Disciple but Lords of the Sith is the better novel and I would recommend it to everyone in this thread.
>>27588648
Roger Wilco?
Sarge here. I wrote pages today but I was just put on a 24-hour duty with no internet. So, I'll have to postpone posting until tomorrow morning, but the update should be longer because of it.
>>27589134
>Longer updated
All forgiven.
I hope I'm not being rude, but, is onii chan here?
He's the only guy I've read the full story of and I'm really exited for the continuation of his story.No offence Sarge, I just haven't gotten round to finishing part one. I got bored and stopped accidentally.
>>27589351
It is what it is, anon.
The story is now quite long. I understand.
>>27589374
Somehow, you understanding just makes me feel like even more of an asshole. Why must I be so self loathing?
>>27589411
No one is a bigger critic on you than you.
While I was on vacation, I had moments where I felt really bad about how I had put this story on hiatus. I didn't like how the thread had died because of me and I felt like I let a lot of fans down.
We're anyways hardest on ourselves. I understand, anon.
>>27589474
You might have just given me incentive to finish your story because you're such a nice guy.
P. S.Has nothing to do with the conversation or the thread.I'm really looking forward to Halloween this year because of the possible furtherance of Anonymous werewolf in Canterlot, fucking love that one
>>27589566
Anon Werewolf 3 is definitely coming.
I too am looking forward to it, but I need to get off my ass like I've done for this story and write those epilogues.
>>27589600
Go look at discord.
>>27589686
I'm on duty with no internet access. I'll see if I can get it on my phone.
>>27588749
Lords of the sith is pretty good i recommend lost stars it's fukkin great. And the comics i recommend are kanan the last padawan and shattered empire. The Kanan comic is the best nucanon comic out of all the other ones in my opinion
We need to do a writefag check. So.. Who's here?
>>27590078
Present
...
>>27590078
Sorta new, but I'm here. Working on my project atm
>>27589351
Hey man glad you're reading my story. Unfortunately I'm a little busy at the moment, and will not have any time to write until this weekend. I've essentially written nothing in the last 6 months and I'm trying to get back into it.
Being in school while working a part time job, and looking for apartments can be taxing.
>>27590078
Lurking while writing.
>>27590349
Oh sweet are we going to get you spamming octavia picture and then no green again? It will be like old times.
>>27590656
You're a funny guyeven though it's true.
It'll be hard to spam, sadly. Had to build a new computer since my old one shit out on me, which involved losing everything on ye olde hdd. Including my Octavia pictures.
That's why I keep my progress in hard copy.
>>27586911
I'll second this. While I thought the premise of Ep3 was really cool - the once most promising Jedi in the galaxy turns to evil - the change in his personality was way too quick. If they'd made some (stronger?) references to how loved General Skywalker was by his allies in the clone wars, and how many battles he won, then maybe we'd begin to not only sympathize with him, but actually even agree with him somewhat.
Take a look at the end of the Clone Wars (series), and the Jedi bureaucracy that forces Ahsoka out of the order. If something like THAT had been included, we might have felt Anakin's internal struggle to be a lot more dramatic. But as it was, it just seemed like "I want more power! I don't want my loveydovey to die!", and it's pretty difficult to believe that he ever lead ANYone.
>>27588648
If you can pull this off, I'd read the hell out of it. I'd even cheat on Sarge's story for it.
>>27588749
>two cannon books
Were they a blast?
>>27586911
plus people forget how much the prequels gave us for the star wars setting. The prequels were stretched too thin
>>27590912First of all, fuck, wrong canon, second the star destroyer being blown out of the sky was a blast.
>>27590633
I just noticed the "while writing" part of your post, I eagerly await. pic unrelated
>>27590078
I'm here too
Update incoming.
>>27580681
>You discover Lord Scorpan in the primary control center of the academy, leaning over a holotable displaying a map of the galaxy.
>Your approach is flanked by two Sith footsoldiers in silvery armor.
>The bothan obviously notes your approach, but does not pay you any mind.
>He seems content to let you stand for several moments before he finishes looking at the map, stands straight and looks at you.
>"Nito. I assume your mission was successful?"
"No, Lord Scorpan. Not in the way we had hoped."
>He cocks a brow. "Oh? Well, fortunately for you, I'm in a good mood and can take disappointment. Tell me, how did you fail?"
"The Force Hunters were not there. The intelligence was leaked in advance of my arrival, likely because they knew about the capture of the kaminoan doctor."
>"And how do you know this?" he asks as he drags a finger across the surface of the map.
"Because Jedi were there."
>Now you have his full attention.
>He faces you and leans down a bit. "Oh? Jedi, you say? And just who were they?"
"Master Luna and her new Padawan, Sunset Shimmer."
>You had every intention of telling him enough truth to ward off any suspicion while keeping the true details of your meeting with them to yourself, but you had looked forward to this moment.
>Sunset was Scorpan's previous pet project; that much was clear from what she told you.
>His reaction is interesting, to say the least.
>"Sunset..." He chuckles to himself. "Under Master Luna, you say?"
"They attempted to apprehend me. I escaped, with the disk you instructed I use on their computers. But I doubt the Force Hunters and their masters left much for us to use, my lord."
>You take out the disk and hand it to him, but he doesn't take it.
>>27595192
>Instead, he waves his hand, and commands everyone else to leave the room.
>When they are gone, and you are alone, he lowers his hand.
>"Tell me, Nito... did they recognize you?"
"Yes, master."
>"And what did you feel upon seeing your former master in the flesh? And the girl you cared so deeply for?"
"Nothing."
>He narrows his eyes.
>Your reaction is cold and calculated---but perhaps a bit too much so.
>He doesn't believe you.
>"I don't think Anon is completely gone, is he? Surely there must have been some reaction, some will or desire to flee with them."
"This is my place now, Lord Scorpan. To flee would bring only death."
>"That it would." He takes out the remote, maintaining a tight grip on it.
>He moves his thumb over a red button while pointing it squarely at your forehead.
>"Now, tell me: of what did you speak?"
"They tried to appeal to Anon. They wanted me to come with them. To heal."
>"And what was your response?"
>You maintain a clear state of mind.
>He would not press the button, not while he thinks you are obedient and useful.
"I told them that he is dead. Nito is all that remains."
>>27595195
>He stares into your eyes, waiting for some hint of deception, some clue as to any real truth you may be intentionally obscuring.
>After a moment, he lowers the remote.
>"I'm proud, Nito. If there was one person who could have persuaded you to turn, it would have been one of them. But you denied both."
>He puts the remote away, and with how close you are, you take note of which pocket he puts it into on his robe.
>Then, he takes the disk from your hand.
>"We shall analyze this. It is a shame that the Force Hunters knew we would be coming, but that is understandable. We will simply continue pursuing other leads."
>He walks around to the map, turning it off.
>"However, this news of Master Luna intrigues me. I was not aware that she had returned from her last sighting."
>After taking a moment to consider this news, he makes a decision.
>"Come along, Nito. There is someone who would like to receive this news personally."
"Who, my lord?"
>"The master of our academy."
>Your pace quickens as you follow along behind Scorpan, silently considering this latest turn.
>Ever since your arrival, you have heard only whispers of the man who rules the academy, and whenever Scorpan would mention him.
>Proceeding to the main hall, he begins to walk up the large stone steps leading to the massive doors of the academy master's office.
>You maintain pace just a few steps behind your master, watching as he reaches the top.
>There, he stands before the great doors with his arms behind his back.
>You stop behind him, waiting for him to do something.
>>27595202
>As it turns out, he needn't do a thing, as the doors behind to open.
>A great rumbling and dragging sound can be heard as the doors scrape along the floor, leading to another chamber beyond, one bathed in darkness, only dimly illuminated by burning braziers.
>Statues of Sith Lords line the walls, with tapestries of the Empire's symbol hanging between them.
>At the heart of the room is a large desk, taller than your head, made of stone.
>It seems more like an altar than a desk to you.
>Red cloth stretches across its surface, with strange artifacts laid upon it that you can barely glimpse.
>A mote of orange-colored light from the sky above the temple bleeds through a single hole in the ceiling, through which the smoke from the braziers exits.
>It shines upon the table, and behind it upon a stone throne sits a massive figure.
>At first you cannot see him at all, but as you draw near, his silhouette becomes apparent.
>Easily twice the size of a standard sapient, he exudes both physical power and an aura of the Dark Side that radiates even more strongly than Scorpan.
>His skin is red like blood, though you can only see his bulging arms resting upon the table.
>The head, shrouded in the shadow of a black hood, has two massive horns that rise from it, each at least the size of your arm.
>They curve out from his skull and point upwards, appearing as though a great obsidian crown.
>Scorpan approaches the table and kneels before it, standing in the ray of light from above.
>You do the same, not wanting to offend whatever creature of the Dark Side sits on the other end.
>When he speaks, it is a voice that rumbles so deeply it seems that even the pebbles on the floor shake.
>"I know not why I am interrupted in my time of meditation, Scorpan, but if the next words that drip out of that sneering face of yours are not worthy of my attention, I shall personally remind you the cost of wasting my time."
>>27595205
>He maintains his bearing, but you notice a slight shift in his body language.
>He clearly despises being talked to in such a way.
>"My humble apologies, Lord Tirek. I bring news on the efforts to eliminate the Force Hunters... and the Jedi."
>The way he speaks to this 'Tirek' and the way he is spoken to are radically different from any interaction you've ever had with Scorpan.
>Or perhaps they aren't...
>It suddenly occurs to you that you are to Scorpan what Scorpan is to Tirek, and suddenly it all makes sense.
>"I care nothing for the insignificant gnats that would dare presume to call themselves hunters of the Force. Do not speak to me of them again."
>"Of course, my lord. But on our most recent endeavor to eliminate a cloning facility associated with them, my pupil Nito encountered none other than Jedi Master Luna."
>"Is that so?" Tirek leans over the desk to look at you, and for the first time, you see a pair of black eyes staring at you from beneath the hood. "He does not seem like very much."
>Speaking for you, Scorpan continues, "He completed his assignment and fended off both Master Luna, and her new apprentice, Sunset Shimmer."
>When he says her name, his voice carries an edge of innuendo and barely-concealed discontent.
>Tirek does not immediately respond, provoking Scorpan to stand up and continue, "I am wondering why I was not informed of Master Luna's return, nor her new apprentice. Surely you knew."
>>27595218
>"I did. I knew of Luna's return from our last battle. She arrived at the Jedi Temple some time ago and left with your former apprentice."
>Tirek's eyes narrow as he then adds in a lower voice, "I am wondering why you think I would report such matters to you, as if I am obliged to."
>"This is key information about our enemies!" Scorpan defends himself. "Furthermore, Sunset was---"
>Suddenly, he ceases to speak and clutches at his throat.
>Tirek has lifted a single hand and is using it to effortlessly choke him through the Force.
>"When she left this academy, it was your failure to properly indoctrinate her. When she escaped with her life, it was your failure to kill her. When she set herself upon the path of the Jedi, it showed me you are not fit to teach at this academy with more failures behind you than any other."
>He lets go, dropping Scorpan to the floor alongside you.
>"Were it not for our Dark Lord, I would never keep you around, you mewling, pathetic excuse of a Sith. That I ever trained you at all is a black mark upon my record."
>Scorpan grabs at his throat and coughs, staring up at Tirek with eyes containing a hatred so fierce that any hate you felt for him feels weak in comparison.
>You look back up upon Tirek as he lowers his hand and turns to you.
>"And this is your new pupil. He was able to fend off both Luna and Sunset? I doubt this."
>As Scorpan is still recovering, you decide to speak for yourself.
"My lord, they sought to capture me alive. They were clouded by sentimentality."
>"Yes, Jedi often are. But Luna is no mere Jedi. She knows the Dark Side, quite intimately. Once, she fought with us. Now against us, both in the last war and recently against me. She is powerful, but like all Jedi, she limits herself by restricting her passion. What do we gain through passion?”
“Strength, my lord.”
>>27595231
>”A child can read and understand the code. But what do you know of passion?” Tirek looks you up and down once more. “I sense little passion in you. Scorpan has made you into a machine.”
“I have great hatred, my lord.”
>”At him, no doubt. But what good is it for you if you cannot use it?”
>He holds out a hand, and in the light, you see something forming above his palm.
>You begin to sense a great amount of power gathering as he manifests a glowing red orb.
>Energy swirls about it, and for all intents and purposes, it seems as though he conjured forth a fireball from nothing.
>”Do you see this, apprentice? This is pure hate. This is malice, fury, contempt, disgust. This is power made of passion. With this, I can destroy my enemies, topple buildings, annihilate all in my path.”
>He clenches his hand back into a fist, crushing the fireball, banishing it with a whisk of smoke.
>”Whatever hatred you carry, it is meaningless unless you can wield it to its full potential. I sense what Scorpan has done to you, shackling you to him as though you were a hound, or perhaps he is merely afraid of failing once more and having you run off.”
>He turns to look at the bothan, who has stood up and composed himself.
>In an unimpressed tone, he says, “Why did you bring this ruined pupil before me, Scorpan? Was this supposed to be humorous?”
>”I merely desired to inform you about Master Luna, my lord.”
>”Lie to me again and see what becomes of you, Scorpan. Perhaps your pupil would find it amusing if I were to break you as you have broken him. Leave my presence and do not return unless you have a matter actually worthy of my attention.”
>Scorpan thinks about replying, you can tell from his eyes, but instead he merely bows.
>You do the same and leave behind him.
>Once you are both free of his chamber and the door is sealed shut, Scorpan turns to you and uses the Force to push you up against the wall in a surprise and petty move.
>>27595239
>As you slide down to the floor, you watch him storm off.
>Already, your mind is reeling from what you have witnessed.
>Despite his power, his influence, his position, he’s nothing but a pawn to someone else---just as you are a pawn to him.
>He hates Tirek, you can see it in his eyes, feel it emanating off of his person.
>And yet he must serve him, because Tirek is stronger, and this ‘Dark Lord’ he spoke of is undoubtedly even more powerful.
>Does Tirek hate him, you wonder?
>Would he bow and kneel before him?
>He must.
>This is the way of the Sith, then, the true nature at the core of it all; it is what the code speaks of, what the Sith model their very way of life around.
>Your master trains you, but he is your enemy.
>If you can kill him, you have earned his place.
>Otherwise, you are nothing but his subordinate.
>Scorpan loathes his position, as assuredly as he loathes the fact he isn’t strong enough to kill Tirek.
>Is it this desire that drove him to do what he did to you?
>Has it all just been a reflection of his own anger, turned to cruelty now that he can torment others as he has been tormented?
>This revelation only serves to make you hate him more, to know that you are the product of such a thing.
>Then something else occurs to you: each and every Sith is playing a game of Dejarik with their master, and their pawns are their subordinates.
>Only, their master is also playing the game, with the Sith apprentice as one of his own pawns.
>And each piece is also looking to kill their owner, in order to become a master and have pawns of their own.
>And on and on it does, perpetuating the system as pieces are killed and replaced, just as their masters are.
>Somehow, it all seems so clear and simple now.
>Is this all the Sith can offer you---a life of betrayal, murder and scheming while guarding against the first two?
>Could it truly be the right path for you?
>Or… perhaps…
>Could it be changed?
>>27595244
That's all for now.
Pastebin is updated and more is on the way!
>>27595251
Thanks for another well written update Sarge!
>>27595251
Am I the only one thinking Anon will have a new master very soon.
>>27595384
I like that thought.
>>27595244
>Or… perhaps…
>Could it be changed?
anon pls
>>27595244
>Could it be changed?
Doubt it since anon could take power try to affect change and all it would take is one ass hole that the dark side has in spades to show up and start up the old ways. The order had existed as is for thousands of years. There's a reason for that.
>>27596390
I think he means change his path, not change the sith.
>>27595251
wait, I thought tirek was the big cheese, but now there's an even bigger cheese? Who dat?
>>27596808
Well, Tirek is the master of the academy, a very high position indeed, but he is not the Emperor.
Look what just came in the mail.
Time to sort, count and catalog!
>>27567869
Good to see you're back in the saddle Sarge.
>>27579089
It takes a little time to get the hang of it, but I often forget that not everyone has the same patience with vector art.
>>27579517
Still here, only just realized the thread came back up.
Been spending my time writefagging for the "Alone in Equestria" thread, which if you've hung out, essentially the only one...
>>27598250
>TIE tanks
I was unaware they actually made figures of these.
tfw you need a really big gun
>>27599159
Got you covered.
>>27599159
>>27596422
It confused me because he essentially already says this in the last update so why repeat it now if he's not also discussing the sith?
It's just a weird choice of words.
>>27600488
There is a difference, though I agree, the wording was a bit off.
It's meant to help build towards one of the five endings.
>>27599859
What's your order going to be anyway? I wana see the Grey Jedi first since it's the most interesting. That was what drew me in at first.
>>27601087
Order? Of what, exactly?
>>27601266
As in what parts of the story will you be working on. Can we expect the grey jedi part to be the one that gets the most work and then you go back and do the others. Or are you planning on trying to advance all three plotlines at the same time but just branch them off into different pastebins?
>>27601279
I don't want to give away too much about the Shatterpoint and what's going to happen.
Rest assured that two of the endings will focus around Anon, Grey Jedi, but only one of them will be the canon ending that will go on.
>>27601398
A taste of things to come.
>>27601498
>>27601507
Does his arm actually look like that reference pic from Deus Ex you used or is it more piece meal and junky looking? I seem to remember a dark rust like HK47 being the color.
>>27601541
I don't always have an exact picture for what I am attempting to convey so I often just use something that is close enough to get the idea across.
Really, in the end, it's up to your imagination.
>>27601554
Can his wrist still rotate or not?
>>27601624
Yes, it spins.
>>27601662
Are we going to get any development on the whole repressed brother? Because the way anon's monologue has been reading makes it seem like he's repressed him all over again.
>>27601713
Most definitely, yes, it's been apart of the story since the beginning and will ultimately conclude at the end of this arc.
>>27601742
One last question before I succumb to sleep. When you said that his wrist spins, how would you describe it's spinning?
>>27601774
Well, it's inspired by Grievous' wrists, since he took it from a training droid whose arm can bend and spin at unnatural angles.
>>27567869
You know what?
I used to play the LIVING SHIT out of a little game you all might be aware of...
It was called Star Wars Jedi Knight Academy. A game with the greatest saber play in any Star Wars game ever made.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kUTNActAX3E
IT'S STILL GOT ALOT OF PLAYERS. It was released in around 2003, and it's still got mods, and fresh new content coming.
it's got a full engine re implementation actually IIRC. Complete with new features and anticheat. Don't quote me on that. I remember reading it somewhere.e
So anyways, what I'm trying to get it, the game is $9.99 on Steam.
Would anyone like if I were to open up a /mlp/ JA+ dueling server? I have a spare server I can use for it.
>>27602579
This game was my jam, I still play it from time to time.
Those fucking sandworms scared me shitless.
>>27595251
Really awesome update, Sarge. Love the expansion of the Sith hierarchy and methods. One thing though:
In the past, you have often given a show character a race similar in either features, look or behavior to before mentioned character in your stories.
My question is, what race would you make Tirek? My SW lore knowledge isn't that vast, and I curious.
>>27601878
It's been a long time since i read your story, so now I'm going to read through it again so I can enjoy your new content fully.
Also, Tirek and Scorpan aren't brothers in your story?
>>27598372
Axii?
>>27602579
I play a lot of the Movie Battles mod for JA. If your server has that mod incorporated, I would play the shit out of it.
>>27598250
>yfw TIE crawlers will never be canon
>>27603999
Too bad the trips never lie...
In all seriousness, with the way Rebels has been canonizing things, we may get some of the good tech back.
>>27603999
>>27604423
>Crawlers
>good
I don't even know their performance outside of EaW but that design still just screems coffin to me even as infantry support.
Then again SW has never been that good with tanks.
>>27602707
Tirek could be either a Devaronian or an Iktotchi.
>>27604816
Scary motherfuckers
>>27602707
>>27603169
>My question is, what race would you make Tirek?
I wanted to maintain the centaurian aspect of Tirek, so, my original concept for him was a combination of the t'landa Til and Massassi, perhaps a crossbreed through sith sorcery, or a mutant t'landa Til in the way that the Massassi themselves were mutated, pic related.
However, I later discovered that there are just fucking centaurs in Star Wars.
>The Chironians were a sentient species native to the planet Chiron distinguished by their centauriform anatomy; while their torso, arms and head resembled those of a humanoid, their lower body was that of a four-legged equine. Another distinctive Chironian feature was the two transparent, smooth horns grown each year from the forehead. These horns started as small velvet-covered knobs, which eventually broke through as fully-fledged horns. If the velvet was cut prematurely, the wound could prove fatal. At least some juvenile Chironians were red-gold in color with white spots on their flanks and back; this color darkened with age and the spots faded. Chironians could grow long manes and tails.Hurr durr Chiron like the mythological centaur get itEU was sometimes dumb but I love it
So, a sith version of the chironians would likely be large, red, with black horns. Fitting for Tirek, who may himself be a product of Sith sorcery.
>Also, Tirek and Scorpan aren't brothers in your story?
Certainly not biological brothers, but they may have been raised together. It may be an underpinning to their relationship in the story.
>>27602579
I am a very large fan of Jedi Academy and would support this. I have it on steam. I'd make an effort to play on it frequently, were you to do this.
>>27602579
I'm pretty garbage at the game but I'd be down for the occasional tournament or whatever you have planned.
>>27602579
Got the entire Jedi Knight series on gog in May so sure I'd be up for it.Battlefront 2 though
>>27601507
Holy shit did you make this? its extremly good. Looks like the cover of some kind of star wars themed rock album.
>>27606227
the most chill of all the Jedi
goodnight sweet thread
>>27606371
No, it's the same Drawfriend as >>27606227, it's just a preview I made of his work (Powerpoint picture formatting, that's the extent of my skills) for a special project he and I have been collaborating on for the upcoming dramatic conclusion to Anonymous, Dark Jedi---the Shatterpoint. It's something he and I have been working on for a while now.I mean he did the actual work in drawing but still
>>27606443
Another glimpse.
Just fuck my shit up Scorpan
>>27608686
Who is more deceiving? The deceiver, or the deceiver who follows him?
>>27608806
Yes.
You know, it's always nice to be back on the thread. At the same time, I'm jealous looking at all these great stories.
People love them, wonder about them, want more of them.
Quite frankly, it makes me feel a little...greenUpdating soon
>>27609044
What was your story about again?
Were you the one about the edgy Anon and the hot Midnight Sparkle?I loved that green famu
Or the one about the jedi Anon with the waaaaaay too slow pacing.I dropped that one tbqh
Or or the bounty hunter?Shit was so cash
I confused all your names guys it's been so long.
Somethin something...one of you had a dark souls reference in your name.
>>27609111
I'm writing the Sith-in-training Anon. He was picked up on Balmorra in exchange for Pinkie and Applejack being sent off world instead of being captured.
>>27609044
>Trixie gawks at you as you both haul yourself over the edge of the climbing wall.
>”I-Impossible,” she stutters. “I-I was ahead; you were so far down.”
”Maybe now that you’re out of your third person bullshit you can realize that I don’t stay down.” you shot back, glaring at her.
>”Y-yes, well… you still haven’t defeated Trixie!” She regains her composure and scowls back.
>A shadow looms over the two of you. Darth Immor stands over you, his eyes piercing through you.
>”I think both of you could use some work.” he growls. “Although I think there is a third student that I know who could use some extra help.”
>You only now notice Gilda, who is just crawling over the finish line.
>”The three of you collectively ran one of the slowest three person run the course has see. The time it took for the final person to cross the line was 1 minute 23 seconds. The average time for apprentices is 54 seconds.”
>A grin slides across Immor’s face. “The record, set by three Sith that you know very well, was 32 seconds for the entire course. 150 meters of running through the canyon, 30 meters of jumping rocks, and 20 meters of climbing.”
>So fast… how is it even possible?
>”Trixie, Anonymous, you head back to the academy. I want to have a word with my apprentice.”
>He turns and glares at Gilda, who refuses to meet his gaze. Her teeth grit as she anticipates the “talk”.
>Not wanting to be there when it happens, you head back towards the academy. Trixie follows suit.
>It’s an awkward walk back. The tension between the two of you hasn’t settled. You can sense it, and you are sure she can to.
>Good. Some quiet on the way would be a nice change.
>Fortune doesn’t favor you today as you hear your Chiss partner pipe up.
>”You won’t be so lucky next time, you know. Trixie has no superior.”
>You try to ignore her.
>”After all, it isn’t like someone like you could ever surpass Trixie. You are too weak and foolish.”
>>27609347
>You stop and turn, glaring into her red eyes.
”Is there anything, or anyone, that you would be willing to die for?”
>She stares back with a dumb, confused look.
>”Well of course not. Trixie will stay at the top, no matter how many people she needs to crawl over.”
“So let me ask you this. Do you expect anyone to die for you?”
>Trixie just stands there, quiet. She glances at the ground, contemplating what you said.
“I can tell that you don’t want to fight and train with me. We were forced together, and quite frankly, I don’t like you any more than you like me. However, there will be a time where we need to work together for our own survival. I’m willing to, are you?”
>Not waiting for an answer, you continue walking back to the academy. Trixie doesn’t follow you.
>It doesn’t take long for a sense of melancholy to fall over you.
>How long has it been since that night on Balmorra? That night when you were forced to leave everything behind?
>It has to have been… at least seven months.
>You barely notice your return to the academy through your own thoughts. Your bed seems like a great place right now.
>As you lie down, your mind wanders to your friends you left behind.
>Pinkie Pie is probably ok. Everyone likes her and her almost magical happiness.
>Applejack… how is she handling this? She has her siblings and granny, but her farm is gone. All the memories of her parents are gone.
>And what about that girl from Ilum, Fluttershy? You hope she’s okay after the shoulder wound, but deep down there is also fear.
>What will she think when she hears of Zecora's death? Even though you had nothing to do with it, will she be angry at you?
>Will you need to fight her? Will she want to fight you?
>>27609349
>Booming footsteps shake you out of your thoughts.
>Trixie comes stomping into the bedrooms, not looking as she passes you on the way to her own bed.
>You hear her flop onto her bed. A cry of frustration is followed by a clank of metal on stone.
>A silence fills the dorms section of the academy. The most peace all day.
> “You’re a monster!”
>You bolt upright, glancing around.
>That sounded like… Applejack?
>”You were like a brother; now you’re one of them!”
>Suddenly you find yourself spiralling downward, darkness swirling around you.
>All around you the sounds of war rage. Blasters firing, artillery firing. Men and women screaming in pain and bodies falling.
>One voice specifically screams out in agony. You notice a blue hand slowly falling to the ground, with a lightsaber steaming, freshly deactivated.
>The image and the darkness surrounding you gives way to light. Not blinding, but a bright, artificial white.
>A huge room is filled to the brim with bodies, most of them Republic soldiers, lie dead. Many are wounded by blaster bolts, but a large number are scarred by lightsaber slashes.
>That’s when you notice them.
>Laying among them are Pinkie Pie, Applejack, and Fluttershy.
>Just beyond them are the bodies are Trixie and Gilda.
>A shadow falls over you. Towering over you is a shimmering figure. A white lightsaber sits in it’s hand.
>The being raises it’s blade, and mercilessly brings it down on you.
>>27609355
>You jolt upright, nearly falling out of your bed.
>It was a dream… just a dream.
>No, it was a vision. The same one you had, all those months ago.
>What were Trixie and Gilda doing there though...
>You roll out of bed, your heart still pounding from your sudden wake up.
>Trixie isn’t in her room. She must have left when you were out.
>You’re about to leave when you notice a metallic glint out of the corner of your eye.
>Sitting discarded near the side of her room is Trixie’s lightsaber.
>You shake your head to yourself. Students are always supposed to have their lightsabers on them at all times.
>You go over and pick up the weapon.
>In true Trixie style, the lightsaber is flashy, but feels poorly made in your hands, almost as if it was hastily thrown together.
>Sticking it on your belt, you make your way out of the dooms.
>You’re not quite sure why you’re taking the saber. It just doesn’t feel right to leave it there.
>You’re also not quite sure where you’re going; all you know is that you feel like walking.
>The halls of the academy are relatively empty, with only stationary guards as well as a few teachers and students going wherever they are needed.
>It’s kinda nice, almost calm. Even the dark presence of the academy isn’t bothersome.
>Your mind is jolted out of its serene state as a feminine scream echoes through the halls.
>>27609363
>The scream originated down a hallway to your right.
>Without hesitating, you run down the hallway. Your hand grips your lightsaber as you near the source.
>At the elbow of the hallway is a group of people. A familiar Chiss is being backed against the right wall by a group of familiar reptiles. Mixed in with them is Spike.
>A few of Garble’s henchmen close in on Trixie. Her eyes burn with rage as the scum approach.
>She reaches for her lightsaber, only to have her anger devolve to panic as her fist closes on air.
>”Nowhere to run,” hisses one of the reptiles, “Nowhere to hide. It’s a shame, I was hoping you would put up more of a fight.”
>Trixie’s eyes dart to and from the various reptiles.
>”Trixie doesn’t need a lightsaber; it’s a brutish weapon anyway.”
>She throws her hands forward, lightning arcing between them and the unfortunate reptile that stands in front of her.
>The trandoshan flies backward, but another takes his place.
>Trixie lets out another barrage, but this trandoshan is smarter. He activates his lightsaber and absorbs the lightning.
>Garble laughs from the back. “You really are a one act show. All talk, but only a few sparks to back it up. It warms my heart to remove weaklings like you from this temple.”
>He glances at his gang and smiles. “And I know just who will get the honor. Spike!”
>The tiny reptile steps timidly away from his group. He grabs his lightsaber and holds it at his side.
>”No.”
>Garble raises an eyebrow. “What did you say?”
>Spike turns around. “I said no. I won’t do your work anymore.”
>”Tsk tsk tsk… after all I’ve done for you? Made you stronger, more brave?”
>”You didn’t do any of that.” Spike shoots back. “All you do is keep me under your thumb and make me do what you want. I’m tired of it. I’m taking a stand.”
>You can’t help but feel proud. Spike has always let himself get pushed around, but now he gets it.
>>27609371
>Then your heart sinks as you realize that the alien reptiles aren’t too happy about it.
>One of the Trandoshans out front steps menacingly towards Spike.
>Now’s the time to get involved.
>You start down the hallway, slowly and softly.
>The trandoshan gets in Spike’s face. “I’ve had enough of your talk. If you want to be so weak, you can join miss princess here.”
>The lizard draws his own lightsaber. Everything seems to slow down.
>Spike starts taking a step back, and you can see the panic overtake his intellect. He won’t react in time.
>Abandoning stealth, you leap forward instinctively and close the remaining couple meters.
>The crimson of his lightsaber is fresh as you bring your saber down onto the trandoshan, severing his hand at the wrist.
>A cry of pain echoes the halls as the searing plasma severs flesh, cauterizing the wound instantly. He falls back into his buddies, who catch him in shock.
>The reptiles all stare at their now wounded companion. Everyone except Garble.
>A growl seeps through his yellow teeth. “You…”
“Me.”
>”Anon!” you hear Spike sigh from behind you.
>Without breaking eye contact with Garble, you remove Trixie’s lightsaber from your belt and toss it to her.
>She sputters behind you, not knowing how to react to the sudden appearance of you and her lightsaber.
>Garble shoves through his gang and bears down on you. “I’ve had enough of you stinking up my ground. At least if I turn you into a stain, the stench stays in place.”
>He draws his heavy saber. Light glints off the blades attached to the hilt and emitter, adding to it’s already menacing look.
>A swirling hum accompanies his red blade. The blade is much longer than yours, though appropriate for his greater height.
>He brings his saber up in preparation to strike as you begin moving to block. However, as you do, a familiar voice booms over the humming of blades.
>”Well what do we have here? Fighting on campus?”
>>27609379
>Both you and Garble stop in mid stance and glance down the hallway. Standing a few feet away, seemingly out of nowhere, stands a smug Darth Pandem.
>”I can’t have the common rabble fighting; it’s not good for progress. And as fun as it would be to watch the chaos ensue, there are standards to be maintained.”
>He walks across the elbow bend of the hallway and glances at the wounded Trandoshan. “Get up, and go to the infirmary. I’m sure they can attach something less losable to that stump.
>He keeps walking as the trandoshan rises. Drawing his blade, Pandem creates a long, straight mark across the hallway. He crosses back to the other half of the bend and creates a similar mark.
>”Now that the bounds have been set, each team has 30 seconds to discuss before the match.”
>The students all look around confused. What had just happened.
>”Come on, everyone wanted a duel. May as well make it formal. 20 seconds.”
>You pull Spike and a protesting Trixie to the side.
“Spike, you remember during training where we lifted up weights with the force?”
>”Yeah, but what does that have to do with this?”
“I think, to even the odds, we lift them into the air and have Trixie zap them. That should throw them out of the area.”
>”Who put you in charge?” Trixie protests.
“Can you hit two people at once? I know you can’t do a sustained storm…”
>”Trixie can do anything she sets her mind to.” She turns away, biting her lip as she does.
>”Five seconds.” Pandem announces. No time to worry.
>”Alright, time’s up. You know the rules. Leave the area, you’re out. I call you out, you’re out. You die, you’re out. Any questions? No? Good. Meet in the middle.”
>Your reptilian opponents line up across the bend from you. Trixie and Spike join you.
>”Sabers on.”
>A rush of hissing and humming runs through the hall.
>”Begin.”
>>27609384
“Spike, now!”
>The two of you simultaneously grab an opponent and hurl them into the air. Trixie, only hesitating for a moment, throws two bolts of sith lightning into their chests.
>Though not as powerful as her normal bursts, the two shots hit their mark. The two lizards fly backward and over the heads of their teammates, easily clearing the line.
>The stunt does nothing to stop the other three from rushing at you, with Garble choosing you as his opponent. You barely bring your saber to block as he barrels at you.
>As your blades meet, your arms shake from the powerful storm of attacks. Garble may not be fast, but he hits like a speeder.
>His blows force you on the defensive, blocking strike after strike at a glance to keep your arms from falling off.
>Hissing static fills the hallway as lightsabers crack against each other. Trixie’s dual blades allow her to hold her own against her opponent, but Spike, despite his progress, is being pushed back by his stronger opponent.
>A roar of rage forces your full attention to your opponent. Garble grabs his saber in both hands and brings it down on you.
>The force makes the blow slow, so you duck under it. The saber carves into the stone.
>He turns toward you and swings a mighty cut at your torso.
>You barely get your blade in the way, causing the two of you to crash together. Despite the blow, you hold the two of you locked.
>Trixie is still dancing around her opponent, using subtle force pushes to keep him off balance. Spike is locked in battle with his opponent, who is leaning right into him.
>”I’m going to enjoy gutting you,” the reptile slobbers. “Then, your puny friends are next.”
>Spike, gritting his teeth, stares his opponent back. “If I’m going to die, it isn’t to some worm like you!”
>He pushes his opponent back and goes on the offensive.
>Garble keeps pushing against you. “Don’t get distracted. I want to watch the light leave your eyes as you die.”
>>27609392
>You take a moment to assess your opponent. He is putting everything he has into this hold, and you can’t maintain the posture much longer.
>Then again, you don’t need to kill him, just knock him out. A quick glance gives you a path.
>Deactivating your blade, you shift under the mad swipe by your opponent.
>With the force holding him up gone, Garble stumbles forward, toward the wall.
>Turning and conjuring all your strength in the Force, you shove into Garble’s side.
>Being without balance, Garble stands no chance. He flies a few feet, then hits the ground and rolls out of bounds, landing just in front of his previously launched comrades.
>You turn around and notice Spike tripping his opponent.
>”Leave me alone!” he cries as he brings his blade down. His opponent tries to block, but can’t get his saber up in time.
>Spike’s blade slashes into his opponent’s chest, creating a clean wound through the heart. The Trandoshan silently twitches as the last breath leaves him.
>The fire in Spike’s eyes doesn’t dim, however. He brings his blade up again, and slashes at the body.
>Each blow becomes more violent, each grunt causes more of Spike’s teeth to bear. Each blow butchers the dead lizard into more burned chunks.
>For a moment nothing exists in your eyes except your peaceful friend monstrously tearing into his opponent.
>Trixie’s rival also notices this, and a visible shiver runs down his spine. This moment is all Trixie needs.
>With silent grace, she gets behind his hulking frame and slides her staff between his shoulder blades. His face stays in shock as he hits the floor.
>>27609397
>Darth Pandem walks forward, slowly clapping his hands. “A brilliant display by all. Truly inspiring. If you’re hurt, escort yourself to the infirmary. If you’re dead, we’ll have someone to scrape you up later.”
>He nudges Spike’s victim with his boot. “Perhaps more literally than I intended.”
>All the fire that filled Spike moments ago is replaced by disgust. He stares down at his work, not wanting to look or look away.
>One of the trandoshans that was thrown out early on shoves past you and approaches the remnants of his fellow gang member. He stares for a moment and turns a little more green than normal.
>Then he turns to Spike, rage slowly filling his eyes.
>”You did this… you did this!” He reaches for his saber and stalks towards Spike, who is backing up.
>Spike holds his hands up. “Wait, I didn’t… I wouldn’t…”
>”I’ll kill you! I’ll shred you!” the trandoshan raises his saber.
>Spike shields himself as you bring your saber around. Much faster than you intended.
>Instead of blocking the blow, you cut through the lizard’s wrists. The force of your swing continues into the creature’s skull.
>A metal clang accompanies a squishy staccato of flesh hitting the ground. A moment later, a boom of half a head joins in.
>”That’s enough.” Pandem says, although not without a hint of amusement. “The duel is over, save the bloodlust for another day.”
>You glance down at your blade, then your hilt. A strange feeling overtakes you, and everything slows.
>You just killed someone. Not a bug or rodent like at home, not a dummy like at the academy, but a sentient being.
>Your father always taught you to stand strong, to not give in. “When being the better man fails, be the better shot” he would say.
>It’s different than hearing it though. You could feel the subtle resistance as your blade sheared through flesh. The hum of your blade muffled in the brain of your opponent.
>>27609406
>The strangest part? It didn’t feel wrong. You were defending. It wasn’t as if it was murder, it was survival. Saving a friend.
>What Spike did on the other hand… that was different. That was something you didn’t think he would do… could do. He always seemed either too timid or queasy to lose control like that.
>A hand on your shoulder snaps you from your thoughts.
>”Troubled, Anonymous?” Pandem asks.
>You hadn’t noticed that everyone had left. It was just you standing at the battleground with Pandem.
“I’m not sure. It’s just… that was my first real battle, not some mock fight with Gilda or Trixie.”
>”A little exhilarating? I’m glad that you kept a head on your shoulders, despite the threats around you. Quick thinking too, at the beginning there.”
>You grin slightly at the praise.
“It’s just, I’ve never seen such anger, such bloodlust. Everyone was locked in on their own fight, and seemed to lose control of themselves.”
>”Ah, yes. You are referring to that Spike character, correct?”
>You nod.
>”While I admire his… dedication to the task, it is also a potentially fatal flaw. If he was caught by someone with his guard down and his focus elsewhere, it would be easy to pick him off like he is nothing. Many great Sith have fallen into that trap, and they were proven not too great to be beaten.”
“I understand. Quick question, why are you here? I thought you left Korriban a few weeks ago?”
>”Well, I’m actually back here due to my studies. I’m giving a book back that I borrowed from Darth Immor, and then I’m drafting designs for a new ship I’m submitting to the Dark Counsel in a few months. I’m a busy man.”
“I didn’t see Darth Immor as the reading type.”
>Pandem chuckles. “It may hurt him, but yes, even he reads books. I’m surprised he kept it so long; I figured it didn’t have enough pictures for him.”
>He turns and starts walking. “I’m off. Good luck; don’t die.”
>>27609416
>With what’s left of your afternoon open to what you deem fit, you decide to do what gives you plenty of time to think: Blaster bolt deflection.
>You start heading to one of the quieter training areas. On the way, you bump into the one person who could make things uncomfortable: Spike.
>The little Saurin sits in the hall, sulking with his head in his hands.
>He hears you walking, and his eyes light up for a moment before resuming a melancholy look. “Oh… hi Anon.”
>He gets up and starts to walk away. “I’ll just leave you. Not like you want to be by me anyways…”
“What makes you say that?”
>”I figured you weren’t interested in having a psycho as a friend. You seem to have enough as teammates.”
>You walk over to him and put a hand on his shoulder.
“What you did isn’t entirely your fault. You just got mad, and needed to release your anger. Anyone could snap as easily.”
>He shoves your hand off. “Don’t you get it? I didn’t just snap, I went savage. That isn’t right, or natural. I wasn’t defending myself, I was seeking to destroy!”
“How else would you have handled the situation? Let him kill you?”
>”No! It’s just that… I shouldn’t have lost control. I was defending myself, but instead I turned into the monster.”
>The two of you stand there for a moment, not sure what to say. Remembering your conversation with Pandem, you build off that.
“Look, you’re right. You shouldn’t have lost it. But you aren’t looking at this from the right angle. You got caught up in the heat of battle. It wasn’t like your opponent was innocent though. He was trying to KILL you. It was either him or you. The only mistake you really made was letting your guard down. If any more of Garble’s gang had seen you with your guard down, we wouldn't have the luxury of discussing this right now.”
>Spike glances up at you, then down at the ground, thinking.
>>27609148
>>27609148
Ohh yes I remember now.
I'm sorry I didn't mention yours, how to forget that Sith apprentice with the "too carismatic to be a sith master"
I loved that one too famalama it's a top 3
Thanks for the update
>>27609420
>”I guess you’re right. It’s not like he’s any more dead than he would be…”
>Spike walks off without another word. This time, you let him.
>The training room is empty when you arrive. Finally, some peace and quiet.
>You unpack the remote droids that sit in the corner. Three droids start floating.
>Even though you initially came here to think, you find it more comforting just to practice.
>For the first time all day, your mind is clear. No distractions, no tactics, just you and an annoying but not dangerous adversary.
>You go on for almost an hour, swinging, ducking, deflecting, decompressing. Your anxiety of previous events flows with the Force, giving you the power to fortify your guard. Not a single bolt makes it through to you.
>Feeling refreshed yet exausted, you head back to your dorm. It’s getting late, and you have another early morning session with Darth Immor in the morning.
>The temple is disturbingly quiet this time of day, making it a comfort to get back to your bed. Much to your surprise, Trixie is waiting for you.
>The moment you walk in, she jumps up and puts herself right in your face.
>”Why did you help us today?” She demands in a confused and outraged tone.
>It takes a moment to process her statement.
>”Well? You could have easily walked off and ignored Trixie, even before that Saurin intervened. Instead you stayed. Why?”
>You hesitate. Why did you save her? It isn’t exactly uncommon for fights to break out or people to get abused. Them something strikes you.
“Do you remember what I said before? About us working together? We are a team. As long as we are supposed to be together, I think we should help each other. Did you see how powerful we could be as a pair?”
>”But that isn’t the way of the Sith! Trixie has always been taught that the strong survive, and the weak fall.”
>>27609428
“Without the weak, there are no strong. Everyone starts at the bottom. If you want to get to the top, you must climb, and it’s easier to climb with people than against them.”
>Trixie lets out a frustrated grunt. “Trixie is already at the top! She just doesn’t want to show it yet.”
>You let out a sigh. It’s time to try being more diplomatic.
“Maybe I could use some help. Without you, there is no way we could have defeated all those trandoshans. And your skills with the Force are beyond mine. A team makes up for each other’s faults.”
>Silence. Trixie stands there contemplating. She lets out a defeated sigh.
>”Very well. Trixie supposes that you did bring her her lightsaber, so that counts as something. And Trixie was caught off guard so… I appreciate the gesture.”
>She retreats back into her room without another word, slowly and silently.
>Does this mean you have an ally?
>As she leaves you hear a thud from behind you.
>Gilda, who looks like she’s been through hell, is asleep on her bed.
>Her robes are torn and cut, a few burns from lightsabers mark her skin. Bruises color her skin seemingly wherever it would otherwise be unmarked by slashes.
>Did she just get back?
>What did Immor do to her?
That's all for now. Comments? questions? Concerns? Let me know.
I forgot pictures...
>>27609427
Thanks, I appreciate it!
>>27579159
holy shit it's been a while since I remember writing that story...wonder if I should pick it up again...
>>27609713
which one?
>>27609836
That side story of Sarge's main story, under Cap'n it was kinda fun to write star wars stuff, but I was kinda using made up stuff for creatures and things. I'm rereading it now and I'm baffled at the amount of pages I have written down holy smokes...
>>27609878
Well, if you ever do intend on finishing it, my plan is that once I'm done with Dark Jedi, I'll be going through the trilogy and adding links to separate pastes that show the sidestories when they take place.
>>27609910
aw man that would be rather neat, I got caught up with the story you've done so far and I gotta admit it was pretty neat to see Applejack and Rainbow git gud at fighting and the force. Though I feel like that bit I'm talking about was way earlier in the story than the current update.
I just reread my own story and came to the part where I left off and now I"m kinda wanting to continue it...I'll see what I can do in the meantime.
>>27609986
Well I certainly hope you do. I was going to go through all the various side stories when I was done with Anon, Dark Jedi and edit/finish them if they weren't done, but if you're going to do so yourself, I'd prefer it.
I hope this is helpful to anyone how want to know a bit more about the Star wars universe.

Phenomenal work has been put into that.
>>27612305
I hate to ask, but green when?
>>27595078
bro is your chapter 2 fully updated? like is the paste bin up to date?
Sincerely, #1 fan of your series haha
>>27611842
That's alot of stuff that I'll never get the chance to go through. Damn
>>27612317
I'm going to try and get an update together for this weekend.
>>27609111
Yeah that slow paced story is mine. I feel like if I don't write my story like an actual book than it won't convey the right tone and emotion. Call me old fashioned, but I can't write my story in a way that gives instant gratification. Like most greentext stories on this board do.
If that offends some people out there, so be it. Most if not all of the stories in this thread don't fall into that category however. Which is why I keep coming back. Even if there are only a handful of people who read my story. It's worth it to follow these other stories.
>>27613001
And there's nothing wrong with that senpai It's just not my cup of tea.
And I appreciate the fact that you're writing without giving a shit about how many are following your green, so many writers are insecure and stop the moment another writer has more hype and I say fuck that noise
I maybe don't read your shit anymore but I fucking respect you breh.
Also my head hurts
Anyone else having serious troubles withmaking an OC space fighter?Just can't get anything to look right with some more traditional fuselage layouts. Or any fitting wing designs for that matter.
>>27613211
Did you draw that? or is that software?
If it's software, where can I get some.
>>27613593
Nah, I just took some picture I had lying around. Do you really think I'm mad enough to combine a sharkmouth with flames?
I just use sketchup, but got nothing noteworthy yet. Just trying to make up something that doesn't look like an X-Wing.
I'm the guy who doodled Grievous' fighter that's up there in the thread somewhere. Don't have anything recent that's SW related lying around as is.
Was Savage Opress a force user prior to meeting the night sisters? Did the sisters awaken him to the force? Is such a thing even possible?
>>27614861
I'm very certain that one must be born strong in the Force, but I'm a traditionalist. Old EU said that if it was implanted in a non-Force user, the user would go mad, ala the Reborn in Jedi Outcast/Academy.
I think Maul and Savage were born in the Force.Goddamnit Lucas, I know you named him or at least approved the name Savage Oppress, fuck's sake come on man
>>27614942
George Lucas is forever stuck in the 70's/80's naming convention.
I'm currently writing an update for Anonymous, Dark Jedi, but here's a pastebin for that sidestory I wrote a while back of the other main cast at the Jedi Temple and all of their reactions to Anon's leaving.
http://pastebin.com/wiLuH2Du
>>27615362
Sweet I was contemplating making a compilation and sending it to you to be made into a paste.
>>27595244
>Scorpan had said nothing, leaving you to return to your quarters.
>There, you are able to clean up a bit and wash what parts of you that you can.
>Eating is difficult, as expected, but necessary if you are to keep up your strength.
>Given that you plan to sneak out of the academy tonight, that’s something you must do.
>You’ve made up your mind: you must return to Mestare.
>That planet was the reason you set yourself upon this path, from leaving the Jedi Temple to finding the Sith.
>In your lightsaber now rests the focusing crystal taken from Mestare by Scorpan’s search party.
>You remember his words well: they found nothing there.
>No temples, no ghost---nothing.
>But you also remember the spirit, the echo of the ancients and his words to you.
>You were only allowed to enter the first temple, the gateway to learning, because you were allowed to see it.
>But Scorpan’s words have gnawed at you ever since: what if you truly experienced nothing during your time upon Mestare?
>You had spent a week upon the planet, meditating and deciding on the path to come and join the Sith.
>To Scorpan, all you experienced was a trick by the Dark Side, a ruse to set you under the Dark Side’s control.
>You aren’t sure what to believe anymore.
>But you do know this: when you promised to the echo that you would return, you would have faced the darkness and be ready to learn balance.
>If the echo was truly there, then it seems possible that true balance of the Force may yet be reached.
>But you must know.
>When all was darkness, light came back into your life---Sunset and Luna.
>Searching all over the galaxy for you.
>Not Nito, but Anon.
>>27616119
>And when they found you, what did they see?
>A ruined, wrecked, burnt, scarred figure, a lackey to a Sith Lord.
>You punch the wall with your cybernetic arm in anger.
>What Scorpan’s done to you is worse than maiming.
>He has made you doubt.
>Doubt that you can defeat him, that you can rise above him, and that you can learn what balance is.
>For Scorpan, the Dark Side is the only path, and he has you in his chains.
>Looking into a mirror, you look at your eyes, the soulless white orbs staring back at you as though they belong to someone else.
>Behind one of them is a bomb that will destroy you.
>According to the Jedi, there is no death, there is only the Force.
>According to the Sith, you must overpower him and break the chains that bind you.
‘What, then, will the path of balance teach me? Does it even exist? Could it be possible, or have I already failed?’
>You cannot know, until you learn for yourself once more.
>Gathering your things, you leave without a moment’s hesitation.
>You wonder if Scorpan will activate the bomb when he realizes you are gone, but part of you believes he won’t, and for good reason.
>He’s put too much time into you, too much effort, to simply throw it away until he is sure you cannot be salvaged.
>You are his tool, but you are a tool that can think---and disobey.
>>27616131
>Pausing in the corridor, you think about how this is going to go down.
>Regardless of what you find on your return to Mestare, you will have to return here.
>Perhaps it is for that reason that you already know you aren’t ready to face the trials the echo spoke of.
>But you must know the truth, you must escape this doubt that is clinging to your soul.
>And deep down, you fear something else, that regardless of what you do now, you’ve already failed.
>That everything else---balance, Luna, Sunset---is a delusion, a weakness.
>That all that truly remains for you is the Dark Side and if you are ever to overcome Scorpan and earn your freedom, you must abandon these things that only hold you back.
>You place your hand over your heart and feel it racing.
>Doubt plagues you and fear controls you.
>Fear is what is compelling you to run away, back to Mestare, just like the first time with the Jedi.
>How strange that your life is taking this turn.
‘How many times must I run seeking the truth before I find it for myself?’
>And there is something else that has been tearing away at you ever since you learned it.
>Master Luna’s words about you.
>The revelation that she was giving you the dreams about your brother, manipulating your sleep through the Force.
>You still don’t know how to feel about that.
>Those dreams made you uncomfortable, they made you afraid.
>You felt fear as you hadn’t felt it since you were a child.
>Was she trying to help you, as she claimed?
>Or was she pushing you along the path towards darkness by making you confront that which was already inside of you?
>>27616136
>Your hand goes to your head, and you rub your forehead slightly---you have a headache.
>Those have been frequent since your transformation due to the mask irritating your skin.
>Focusing on your new mission, you walk towards the hanger.
>Two guards in armor block your path, having been posted to ensure no students attempt to do what you are doing.
>The soldiers of the Sith Empire are mere men, no Force powers about them, but they are armed with effective silver-colored armor and blaster rifles.
>On each of their backs is a vibrosword.
>”Halt,” one of them demands, and you stop.
>”None of the students are allowed access to the hanger at this hour without authorization or an escort by a master.”
You bow your head slightly. “Forgive me, I didn’t know.”
>You turn slightly, but then face your head towards them.
“Only, there is one thing: I do have authorization.”
>With one press of a button and a slash, you cut their rifles into halves with a brilliant flourish of orange light.
>Then, with your other hand, you reach out and cause their heads to rapidly lean towards one another, smashing their helmets against each other.
>Their unconscious bodies fall to the floor in a crumbled mess.
“My authorization, that is.”
>Stepping over their bodies, you use the Force to open the sliding door and enter the hanger.
>The only ones here are droids doing maintenance on the various ships, and they pay you no mind.
>>27616150
>Approaching your own ship, the one you stole from Kessel, you lift a hand and force the entrance ramp to open.
‘Almost too easy,’ you think as you smirk underneath your mask.
>Then you feel another presence approaching, one strong in the Force.
>Trying to leave the academy only to be stalled by fellow students strong in the Force…
‘Not again…’
>As it turns out, however, that the situation is decidedly different.
>For you are not approached by many, but only one.
>She steps out from the shadows, her dark blue cloak hanging loosely from her shoulders and her hood pulled down behind her head.
>Maud.
>She stares at you with eyes transfixed upon you and your ship.
>”You are leaving,” she says, more of a statement than a question.
“I am.”
>”I know you haven’t been given a new assignment.”
“And how do you know this?”
>”The unconscious guards were an indication.”
You point back at the way you came. “And yet, you haven’t seen them. You didn’t come from that passage.”
>”No, but I felt it. Others who are asleep---like Lord Scorpan---likely did not. But I am not asleep.”
“I can see that.” Turning to face her fully with your hand openly resting upon your lightsaber’s holster, you cock your head and look at her. “So, how is this going to go down?”
>”You think I am going to stop you.”
>>27616159
“Correction: I know you are not going to stop me, but if you’re going to try, I’d like us to get it over with.”
>Her response is measured, her voice slow and methodical as always.
>”I don’t intend on stopping you. I intend on leaving with you.”
>That’s a bit of a surprise, but not exactly a welcome one, given your history with her.
“If you think I’m going to be your free ride out of here, you had best learn what I did to Noteworthy.”
>”That’s exactly why I know you aren’t running away from the academy, and that you will return. I intend to be there with you when you leave and when you return.”
“You’re smarter than you look, you know. Certainly smarter than you sound.”
>”If you are going to stand and insult me and waste more time, I will alert the other guards, which I will do if you deny me.”
“Maybe I’m feeling lucky. Maybe I could outrun the academy guard ships.”
>”But you cannot outrun the bomb when I tell Lord Scorpan how you confessed that you are leaving the academy.”
>Her words ring in you like an alarm bell.
“How do you know about that?”
>”Because I saw what he did to you. I didn’t see the process, but I saw the end result. I’m looking right at it. You are changed. I met you on Dromund Kaas and you were different. It’s not an outside change, but an inside change.”
>She slowly starts approaching you, speaking as she does.
>”I can feel the weight on your soul. His leash around your neck, threatening to go off. It has made you afraid.”
>Stopping in front of you, she stares unblinking at you.
>You are completely still.
>>27616169
>”And you are not the only one who can cause someone to freeze with words alone.”
“Fair enough, you’ve got me. Just like before, right? Working together in that ancient temple?” You lean closer. “You think I will ever forgive you for what you did to me? If you’re threatening to run and tell Scorpan if I don’t bring you along, why shouldn’t I just kill you where you stand and ease the burden on my end?”
>”Maybe you should. Are you afraid of leaving me here to warn the rest of the academy? Or are you more afraid of me learning where you are going?”
>Continuing to meet her gaze, you both stand in silence for a tense moment.
>You contemplate what it could mean to bring her along.
>It could be trouble.
>But then again, perhaps it would actually help---after all, if the spirits of Mestare, provided they do exist, only allow certain people to see certain things, what will she see?
>You then turn and indicate the ramp.
“Ladies first.”
>Wordlessly, she enters and you follow after, closing the ramp behind you.
>In a few minutes, the ship is powered up and pulling out of the hanger, rocketing up to the dull red night sky of Korriban.
>Bringing up the navicomputer, you chart a route to Mestare.
>Thankfully the information is intact, and soon enough you are in hyperspace.
>With the ship in motion, you sit back in the pilot’s seat and look to your right.
>Maud sits very still, like a statue, but her eyes stray over to you.
>For several minutes of silence so thick you could cut it with a lightsaber, you stare at each other, each unwilling to say anything at all.
>You wonder if she is always like this.
>>27616175

It's been a while, but I still remember pretty much all I planned on writing.
To be honest, I don't have nearly the same amount of time to work on green as I used to... but at the very least, I would like to finish writing up Act II of Inquisitor Anon sometime soon. I was close to wrapping things up with that part of the story right around when the thread died, so maybe I'll do that soon!
>>27609111
>Were you the one about the edgy Anon and the hot Midnight Sparkle?
>I loved that green famu
lel, that's me! A very apt description, Anon did go out of his way to embrace the Dark Side and I personally went out of my way to make Midnight sexy.I'm glad you enjoyed it anon!

>”Applejack, Applejack wake up!”
>With a yawn you slowly open your eyes to see the fuzzy outline of rainbow mop of your friend.
“Rainbow? Wha’s the matter?”
>”Master told us to get up, she had something to show us. Hurray up and get dressed, I’ll get Fluttershy up.”
>Mumbling to her you nod before sliding out of the bunk.
>Feet touching the cold plasteel you shudder hiking your feet up off the ground.
>Freaking cold…
>Grit against the cold you slip onto the floor and bruseqly dress as you hear Rainbow quietly waken Fluttershy.

“Naw Sugarcube, Ah’m doin’ alright. Now come on yall Master’s still waitin’ on us.”

Welp it wont let me post for some reason so I'll just leave it there and say I updated because fuck you too 4chan
Ok, I'm pretty sure I know what I'm looking at but I've never got a definitive answer so here I go. Captain Rex's phase 2 helmet, are those blue/orange lines like weld marks where he attached the phase 2 respirator and top of the helmet, or whatever the fuck it's called, to his phase 1 visor?Really, it just bothers me that no one else I've seen has ever mentioned this and there was no explanation in TCW either, I'm not crazy, right?
>>27616187
You know I always thought travel between planets took at least hours. I wouldn't think Anon would have time to make it back.
>>27618013
Looking up close, I would say it's safe to assume so. The only way we anybody would bother confirming such a small detail would be if some asshat asked about it on Twitter during "Rebels Recon"
>>27618658
The lore has always been weird like that. In the KOTOR games they make it sound as if it can days days or weeks to move from place to place. In some other lore it sounds like you can make it across the galaxy in a few days like a cross country trip.
>>27619089
Personally I like the idea of longer travels, something like in Firefly except on a bigger scale.

Didn't help much sadly but I think I'm just stuck proper because I ended up with something too aerodynamic/conventional for the SW feel.And perhaps because I'm still trying to recycle some old model/design.
Maybe I'll start over later.

Whoa, I actually didn't notice the tri-wing design until after I posted this. That's pretty awesome!
Now I'm imagining some kind of Sith Lord / Ace Fighter Pilot based off of the Red Baron
>>27624133
I was trying to write similar things, albeit with a bit more Planes and Mercs and a bit less WWI heroism.
But as is evident I didn't get far.
>>27624192
Oh were you writing the story about Anon and Dash as jedi pilots in the New Republic?
I remember reading that a while back, I was looking forward to seeing what was going to happen to poor Dashie.
>>27624280
Nope, I was going to get something new going. No clue who wrote the New Republic or the Tie-Anon stories.
>>27624719
That video was so good.
>tfw Republic Commando won't run on Windows 10
Th-Thanks, Microsoft. Not like I wanted to relive the good old days.
Do you have Discord? If not, get it! If so, come on in. I'll be adding this to our future OP's.

Runs fine on my end, got it off GOG.
I think I had to install a widescreen patch though.
>>27625113
It won't start up for me. It just crashes after I launch it. I tried compatibility mode, but that still didn't work.
>>27625138
Sorry I wish I had more on it, but really it just worked for me. I guess google is your friend.
Posting best starfighter.
>>27625952
that's not the y-wing
>>27625970
>Y-Wing
>best
Pick one.
>>27626041
Y-Wing is the best though
>>27626212
>>27626041
Real best ship
>>27625952
Doesn't look like a Tri-fighter, or a vulture droid to me.
bump
still working on that update.
>>27628407
Really looking forward to it.
>>27624719
That video makes me hope that we get to see some TIE fighter baddassery in Episode 8
>>27624330
Didn't we see that plane in Captain America: The First Avenger?
>>27630079
I don't know, some people seem to love it when there's a superior version by Heinkel.
>>27630076
>tfw there'll never be another TIE game
I can't say I really like the look of them, but fuck they were fun to fly.
>>27567869
Just watched that Star Wars Intro. Originally thought it was the one that I had created, but that one you made was some much more fitting for this thread.
For the next one we should make a new one. Which I'll submit for your guys approval of course.
https://brorlandi.github.io/StarWarsIntroCreator/#!/AKK4eYSqrOCN07R5Qn5z
How's do you fancy this?
>>27626826
You're vulture droid.
>>27631708
>>27624133
So I just saw that these guys were crazy enough to fly these things into space while sitting on their backs.
Makes me really think about making this Space Fokker I'm working on here open cockpit.
>>27632479
Thats pretty metal
>>27632479
>>27632730
Basilisk Droids are the shit. From what I remember, Mandos would ride those things crashing through orbit drop-pod style like 40k Space Marines.
Definitely one of the most Metal things in all of Star Wars.
>>27632479
And the design as far as I got today if anyone is interested.
Not quite as much of a missile as the Buzzard but I think they'd fit together.
By the way, I had been meaning to tell you guys that, like Sarge, I've recently started running a quest myself over on the new quest board under the name of Darth Swag.
I only just started running it about a week ago, and it's honestly the first Quest I've ever ran, but it is Star Wars related and I thought some of you might be interested. I could certainly use a few extra players!
>>>/qst/249535
>>27633018
That's an interesting desgin, kind of looks a bit like a big torpedo crossed with a Biplane, what with the wings and the design of the guns on top.
Also calls to mind the ARC 170 with the wing design. I like it.
>>27633089
>ARC 170
Well guess where that engine placement was stolen from.
Didn't even notice that new board though, I'll look into it.
>>27633089
Prequel era definitely has the better ships. Same could be said about music and general aesthetic too.
>>27633505
I love the Y-Wings with the panels still attached. Shit looks so good.
>>27633505
>music
That shit was godtier
I really gotta sleep now. Can someone make a new thread when its appropriate?
>>27633541
It took a bit to get used to, but I like it
>>27633505
Prequels had GOAT ground warfare game
>>27633505
Post your shipfus /mlpswg/
This might seem obvious but vulture droids are best, as others stated before. Who wouldn't want a ship that could both fly and walk around? Hell, you could even reprogram it for certain 'duties' if you were into that.Vulture sexbots ftw
>>27634639
I would polish the leaving shit out of her and give herpremium fuel.
>>27634666

You'd need to make some heavy mods to it. I mean, unless you like two other dirty men desecrating your ship.
>>27634639
Always loved the X-Wing games. Fell in love with this version of the YT series.
So... thoughts on what was shown at the press conference? Wasn't a lot, but I'm betting hard cash that we'll be seeing an influx of prequel content coming.
>>27635294
>we'll be seeing an influx of prequel content coming.
For what? Battlefront? We'll most likely get that in Battlefront EA 2.
>>27635335
I meant Battlefront II, and that game with the motion capture that had the temple march music in the background.
>>27634639
>Post your shipfus /mlpswg/
pic related
>major versatility-can be a fighter, bomber, recon, or use an Ion cannon to disable ships
>workhorse of the Rebel fleet
>was actually the staple of the Rebel fleet until Incom defected with the X-Wing plans
The ship so nice the good guys used it twice
>>27635457
Clone Wars version does look so much better though.
>>27633089
Oh, shit, that's you? I wandered into that quest and posted in it one time. Good stuff.
Gonna have to postpone that update.
Tomorrow is not going to work either; because I work and and have school. I'm going to try for Tuesday.
>>27634945
>I mean, unless you like two other dirty men desecrating your ship.
It would give me more reason to clean her up.
>>27634639
Surprised nobody has posted this. Easily my favorite ship.
>>27612537
Sorry man, I was out of town all weekend.
Yeah, that's all I've posted for chapter two so far. I wrote a lot more during our break, but I still need to go in and edit stuff before I can post what I've got. Hopefully I can get to it this week.
I appreciate the feedback and I'll definitely make it a priority now. So thank you.
>>27636711
Yup, that's me! Thanks, it's pretty fun so far.
Bump
>>27638273
Just got through chapter 1 here. I like it, so keep going.
>>27635457
Good taste, nice to see another Y-Wing faggot in here.
so battlefront was kinda lukewarm, any reason why?
>>27640198
The new one? Probably because they didn't just make Battlefield: Star Wars and instead removed a whole lot of things.
There's just very little content from what I can tell. I'm almost convinced there was more stuff in those PSP exclusive BFs.
Shame really because the game looks and sounds beautiful.
That said I have this faint hope that the Galaxy in Turmoil project does not get C&D'd by Disney or EA.
>>27640198
>lukewarm
>luke
You did that on purpose, fucker.
>>27640198
It was made by EA.
>>27640198
I actually really liked playing it, but sadly my computer can't manage it. I'll be building a new computer in the Summer, but I fear that the community will be dead soon enough, what with Battlefield 1 getting so much hype and Battlefront 2 announced.
>>27640557
>the community will be dead soon enough
a shame
>>27640198
EA
Instead of putting forth actual effort (or using the 95% complete BF3 that had already been made) they decided to reskin battlefield with star wars skins and call it a day.
> /mlp/ , I Challenge you to a Lightsaber dual!!
>>27640557
They don't have Galactic conquest!!!
>>27641088
No! Stop! You will attract buthurt mods.
>>27641121
Yeah!... Wait, arn't the mods selectively buthurt?
>>27640198
Because it wasn't this.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2WeX41WfOsY
>>27641287
that does look like seven kinds of awesome
>>27641287
EA HAD ALL THAT TO WORK WITH! ALL THAT! FUCK YOU EA!
>>27641287
Once again EA says fuck the fans, they just keep making the same fucking formula in every one of the shooters they make, the sad part is that so many people buy it expecting more than that.
But as >>27640224 said, Galaxy in Turmoil does look great, and from what I've seen and heard there SHOULD be no problems with Disney, we'll just have to wait and see.

Someone's making a BFIII mod for BFII using leaked assets from the game. Looks pretty legit.

If you could improve/change/add something to the design of the lightsaber in any way to make it more efficient/deadly/intimidating/cool (like adding a second blade, or a lightsaber crossguard) what would you add? Try and think of something that we haven't seen before/often
>>27643264
I know Sarge is gonna like this more than Kylo Ren's saberYou made that diagram, you know the one, right?but I really like the nightsister saber design in this.
>>27643264
Would a wrist mounted lightsaber count?
>>27644222
Like this?
>>27644275
Yeah, but looking at it now I can see just how much it would cut back on your maneuverability
>>27644288
At least you'll look cool.
>>27643264
I'd make mine so it looks like a thermos, and then I would always carry a thermos that looked like a lightsaber. I would routinely use this to my advantage by pretending to be disarmed. If a sith tries to use my lightsaber against me he'll get soup all over his hands and burn them, securing the win for me.
>>27617206Let's see if this works now...
>Once there you find Master Cadence scowling over the instrument panel.
>”Master? Everyone’s here now.”
>”Good, maybe you could all help me figure this out.”
>Sliding into one of the copilot seats you start to bring up the display for the ship.
“What’s the problem?”
>Master lets out an irritated breath before breathing calmly, “Those coordinates we found should have lead us to the planet, but all that is there is empty space, the instruments say there is nothing nearby for five parsecs around us.”
>Fluttershy leans over your shoulder to glance over the display as it reads nothing before you, “Could the coordinates have been wrong?”
>”They might have, but it doesn’t feel like it.”
>Rainbow tacks away at control panel before asking, “How about now, anything?”
“No, Ah’ve got nothin’ here.”
>Cursing Rainbow smacks the controls, “Shoddy piece of…”
>Looking up from the faint orange display you watch the empty expanse of space before you.
>All that stares back is the empty abyss filled with glimmering lights of the cosmos.
>As you watch the sky you feel the hair rise on the back of your neck.
“Fly ahead.”
>Rainbow looks at your with incredulity, “Why?”
“Just trust me, I think there’s something there.”
>”Master?”
>Cadence nods to the multi colored haired girl and she pushes the engine throttle forward.
>With a subtle jerk forward the ship starts to fly through space.
>You start to think you are wrong as nothing happens.
>”Oh well, at least it was an i- oh my!”
>Fluttershy put it right, as the viewport shimmers faintly before breaking some barrier that peels away leaving behind a smoky blue planet that swirls ahead of you.
>”What in the!? The whole board’s lit up here!”
>Master Cadence only stares in wonder at the planet, “This is amazing, I’ve only heard legends of this…”
“Master?”
>>27644419
>”It is a method used by a long dead people padawan, Volantis was their name I think, they were said to be so adept in the use of the Force they had hidden away their entire planet within the Force!”
“How in tarnation did they manage to pull that off?”
>Master Cadence shakes her head in answer guiding the ship towards the ship, “I do not know, but what I do know is we must reach the site before Sombra does.”
>Rainbow sharply looks at Cadence, “Shouldn’t he have retreated to treat his wounds? I mean we dropped a cave on his head!”
“Ah just wanna know how he isn’t dead from all those rocks burying him.”
>”There have been records of Sith who have tapped deep into the dark side enough that they become a part of the shadows themselves, most likely that is how he was able to survive.” Master Cadence explains as the ship enters atmosphere tinting the view screen orange as you decend.
>”I-in the shadows? H-how do we fight something like that th-then?”
“Ah’d say we keep him from using shadows, use enough light that there isn’t anything for him to use against us.”
>Master Cadence nods her head towards you, “Very wise, previous jedi masters have used the same tactic and triumphed, let us hope we shall meet the same.”
>Rainbow keeps to herself before she sits up suddenly, “I got it!”
>Running towards the back of the ship you wait with the others wondering what she got.
>You don’t have to wait long as Rainbow returns with…
>”Glow sticks?”
>”Yep! We crack these bad boys open and toss ‘em wherever we need and boom no shadows for that Sithspawn!”
“Can’t hurt at least.”
>Rolling your shoulder you wince as your skin flares around the wound.
“At any rate we should get ready to leave.”
>”We are Applejack, however you will be staying with the ship.”
“What?! Master you can’t just…”
>>27644427
>A sharp glare is sent your way by the pink women, “Yes, yes you are. I will not put more of my students at risk than needed.”
>You start to argue more when you feel a hand on your good shoulder.
>Looking up you see Fluttershy simply shaking her head at you.
>Well that takes the wind out of your sails.
“...Fine.”
>”Hey cheer up Applejack, you can keep the skies safe for us in case that sithspawn shows up like Fluttershy did!”
>Fluttershy nods, her hand digging into your shoulder in a reassuring way, “H-hopefully it doesn’t come to that and we c-can just go.”
>Waving them off you smile a small grin.
“Alright, alright already! Just hurry up and get it done then.”
>A muffled thud of the landing gear hitting dirt shudders through the ship.
>Master Cadence stands tapping a few more buttons on the console, “Good, we’ve arrived. Fluttershy and Rainbow with me, Applejack the ship is yours.”
>You nod standing up to take the helm when a swat on the rear whips you around faster than a rattlesnake on a hot July pavement!
>”Try not to scratch up the ship too much, eh Applejack?” Rainbow smirks at you waggling her eyebrows before she turns to run out of the ship as you start to chase her.
>After a half hearted attempt of chasing your friend you grumble aloud to yourself.
“Stupid, no good, goofy girl…”
>You take your seat and can’t seem to get rid of this smile on your face.
>Your friends might be facing a life or death trial with a Sith chasing after them.
>Yet you feel like they will make it out alright.
>Engaging the ship’s weapons you spin them up hearing the hum of the plasma capacitors.
>If nothing else you're going to give that Sithspawn hell when he shows up.
>>27644440
>Watching the ship take off with a thrum of the engines your hair is blown back by the blast as Applejack takes it off into orbit.
>”C-come on Rainbow, we have to hurry.”
“Yeah I’m coming Fluttershy.”
>Walking after your Master and friend you can’t help but to look around with the feeling of being watched.
>”You sensed it as well then?”
“Master?”
>Master Cadence moves aside tall fronds that bar your way, “This whole planet is awashed in the Force, it can sense us and in turn we can sense it.”
>”M-Master wouldn’t that i-imply the whole planet is sentient?”
>Moving over tree roots the size of a small cargo truck Master Cadence hums in thought, “Yes and no, the planet is aware, just as is everything else upon this planet would no doubt be. So long as we-”
>Fluttershy suddenly yanks you both down into an alcove between the roots!
“Ow Fluttershy what's...the big idea?”
>At first it was a faint rumbling before it soon became a roar of feet pounding the ground, it almost reminds you of....
>”Shh! We have to keep quiet the poor things are scared out of their minds! They’re running from something.”
>You would ask what they are when your alcove is soon plunged into darkness as leaping figures jump over it!
>At first you thought they were horses, but instead they have six legs a mottled grey skin that looks reptilian and was that a person atop of it?
>No, the people atop of them are the horses!
>Strange wonders never cease it seems…
>”Fluttershy do you know what scared these beasts so?”
>Looking at your friend you find Fluttershy holding her head as she keeps her eyes closed, “I-I think so, it’s vague, but I think they are running from one of the predators here. All I know is that they are terrified of it and that it’s huge.”
“If worse comes to worse we can just fight our way out of it, it’s just an animal right?”
>>27644450
>”Appearances can be deceiving padawan. I think they are passing now, we should go before that predators finds us.”
>Your party continues to bunny hop across the and over the roots of the trees.
>The sensations bombarding your Force sense makes it hard to focus on your own use of the Force, but you manage.
>It’s almost like having a radio playing nothing but white noise in your ear.
>You’d hate to be Fluttershy right now, sparing a glance at your friend you notice her squinted look as she jumps alongside you.
“Shy you alright? This place is louder than Pinkie right?”
>”R-Rainbow, you shouldn’t make fun of Pinkie...though you are right…”
“Don’t worry, we get in, fix the heart and get out after that we’re off this planet and it’s migraines.”
>Seeing the squinted look on Fluttershy’s face fade, she smiles nodding her head, “Yes, that would be great!”
>Speaking of getting in…
>You launch yourself harder than normal following after Master Cadence until you are alongside her.
“Master, what are we looking for exactly?”
>”From the painting upon the wall I believe is what we seek.”
“Except we only have the vaguest idea that it’s on this planet.”
>Master Cadence nods her head in admission.
“With just a painting to tell us what we are looking for.”
>”Your ability to state the obvious is astounding Padawan.”
“You know what I mean, how are we supposed to find this temple thing or whatever it’s called?!”
>>27644465
>Master Cadence suddenly stops leaving you to continue jumping through the air onto the next branch.
>Whirling in place you look to see wh Master Cadence stop only for her to knock her hand against the wood ear against it.
>”Quite simple my padawan, trust in the Force to see us through.” With that Master Cadence smiles at you before she lets herself fall off the root!
>You’re up at least three stories!
>Sprinting after your master you see her amongst a large collection of fluffy wool?
>Hearing a squeal of delight from beside you, you look to see Fluttershy beaming at the sight below, “Oh my goodness, those are Crystal Ewes!”
“Crystal what now?”
>Ignoring you, Fluttershy hops down below to land upon the mass of wool only to bounce alongside Master Cadence who giggles briefly.
>”Oh, they are adorable! Rainbow Dash you must come see!”
>This girl and her animals…
>Shaking your head you wryly smile before taking the jump below as well!
>With a fwump of displace air you bounce alongside your friends before laying in the wool.
>Oh…
>OH!
>It’s so soft…
>Like being tickled by tiny hands made of silk and fuzz…
“So what are these things exactly?”
>”Crystal Ewes, they are so rare nowadays as their wool is so useful for so many things, the only problem is…”
>”Once a Crystal Ewe has had it’s fur cut it can never regrow it.” Master Cadence finishes somberly.
“Then how’d people use them?”
>>27644472
>”Naturally shedded wool was used most the time, but other races tended to not care.” Fluttershy says quietly before rubbing her face into the wool as it lets out a soft bleat in response.
>Running your hand through the wool again you smile at just how fluffy these things are, it’s almost like they are nothing but fluff!
>”As entertaining as this is young ones, we must hurry. We are close now I can feel it.”
>Master Cadence slips down to the ground walking towards the trunk of the tree.
“It’s inside the tree?”
>”No…” Master Cadence replies stopping near the base of the tree, “It’s beneath it…”
>With that Master Cadence throws out her hand towards the roots which slowly begin to curl away and form a passage below!
>”Wow...How’d did you do that Master?”
>Master Cadence looks surprised herself, “I-I didn’t I started to use the Force and the tree responded…”
“Should we be prepared for trouble?”
>You finger the activation button on your blades ready to ignite on your master’s word.
>Shaking her head Master Cadence holds out her hand towards you, “No, I think the tree wants us to find the site. Come let’s not be rude.”
“Master...you realize you're talking about a tree right?”
>”Trees have feelings too you know…” Fluttershy mumbles behind you with a reproachful look.
“Uugh, fine sorry for hurting the tree’s feelings Fluttershy.”
>You hate it when she does that look!
>Though the grateful smile back from the yellow girl does help.
>”Padawans!”
>You both reply in answer before following down after your master.
>>27644490
>What you see below astounds you, the soft mosses and lichens lining the roots and rock softly glow in a light blue illuminating the path ahead.
>Amongst the rocks you also spot what look like gems!
“Are those sapphires?!”
>Drawing closer to one of the shiny rocks you start to reach out for it only to be stopped by Master Cadence.
>”No Padawan, look closer, they are not gems, but are made of crystal.”
>”Master, these look almost grown.” Fluttershy says pausing to look over the faceted crystal.
>Reaching a hand out towards it Fluttershy’s eyes widen dramatically, “Master these are-”
>”Just like the ones in the healing temple, I know.”
“Wait, wait I’m confused. Why does that matter?”
>Master Cadence continues to walk through the tunnel forcing you to keep alongside her, “It means that this tree maybe growing gems that are infused with the Force itself.”
“Which means…?”
>”They could be used for great good, or great evil.”
>Eying the prolific amount of gems that line the tunnel you nod your head.
“Got it, don’t let Sombra find these or everyone will pay for it, no pressure right?”
>You nearly jump as Fluttershy sets her hand on your shoulder, “As long as we’re together we can do it, I know we can.”
>Sparing her a smile of your own you see Master Cadence duck into a large opening from the tunnel.
>>27644498
>Following after her you find yourself in a large ornate chamber that drops far below into darkness.
>Nearby is a railing that encircles the whole of the chamber while ahead there is a bridge with no hand rails carved from stone that leads to a series of circle platforms interconnected by more stone bridges.
>In the center four of the circles all interconnect to a central platform that is raised above the others, a small pedestal rests upon it.
>Walking towards one of the pillars you look at in detail trying to see if there was some type of mechanism on it.
>Aside from a small carving of a trio of apples in the center inlaid with red crystals you don’t see anything out of the ordinary.
“They must really like apples if they spent all this time making this.”
>”Or lightning bolts…” Fluttershy calls from another pillar kneeling down to wipe away at some dust coughing from the amount sent into the air.
>Turning towards her you pause before running over to look, sure enough laid out and enameled in stone work is a familiar symbol that you’ve always considered your good luck charm in races!
“Fluttershy I think th-whoa!”
>As soon as you had put your foot on the symbol it began to glow a light red bordering on pink!
>A rush of energy plows through your frame as you can feel the Force just click.
>You can feel /EVERYTHING/
>From the worms and bugs that crawl in the soil, to the flying birds that soar through the planet’s atmosphere, you can even make out the presence of Applejack out in orbit around the planet.
>When you reach out to her you can almost predict her question before she asks…
>However Applejack yanks herself away and her signal suddenly begins to dart around erratically in orbit!
>Feelings of determination, fear, and courage pour forth as Applejack makes the ship fly.
>You start to spread your senses out further to find what could be attacking her only to be yanked away from the Force!
>>27644507
>”Padawan!”
>Feeling the slap to the face jerks you awake as you flail your limbs to fight.
“Stop! I’m fine! I don’t need the spray bottle!”
>A pregnant pauses follows as Fluttershy leans down beside you, “Dash, you were inside of the pillar for a while, we couldn’t even feel your presence in the Force. Are you okay?”
>Master Cadence grips your face in her hands as unyielding as iron as she asks, “What. Happened.”
“I-I I felt like I became one with the Force, Master.”
>Feeling Master Cadence loosen her grip you shake free rubbing at your jaw, “Tell me more Padawan.”
“Well I came over and as soon as I touched my lucky symbol, I just...everything just clicked into place. Like I was meant to be there, it felt right.”
>Looking up at Master Cadence you see her gnawing at her lip in thought before Fluttershy helps you up.
“I also felt Applejack in orbit, I think’s she’s in trouble.”
>Before Master Cadence could ask the communicator suddenly crackles to life, “-Ence, ya’ll- -o watch-”
>Clicking the communicator up to her lips Master Cadence tries to tune the signal, “Say again Padawan?”
>”Coming- need to- emergency lan-”
>Fluttershy lets out a small gasp, “You don’t think that she was shot down do you?”
>”It’s hard to tell, we must be in deep in the earth if we can’t contact her.”
>Master Cadence paces back and forth deep in thought before stopping as she looks over you both, “I believe that we shall need all of our party here to cleanse the Heart.”
“Then let’s go and get her then!”
>>27644519
>A pink hand holds you back as Master Cadence frowns, “I’m afraid not Padawan.”
>”Master? Wouldn’t it be better to stick together?”
>”Normally yes, but I fear that Sombra will be hounding young Applejack.”
“We can take him!”
>”Maybe so, but I need you here.” Reaching into her robes Master Cadence levitates the Crystal Heart over to you.
>You catch the gem and hold it at arm's length, it feels so wrong like this…
>”I know it is unpleasant, but this chamber and the Heart /must/ be protected Padawans. If Sombra were to gain entry here, I shudder what he could do.”
“So we just wait? Hope you just don’t-”
>”Rainbow…” Fluttershy interrupts you holding onto your shoulder again.
>”I trust you both to guard this and each other, if I had some other way to do this, I would. Now be safe.” Master Cadence says walking towards the exit.
>Left with the Crystal in hand you simple sit down and sigh letting the Heart lay on the ground.
>You /hate/ waiting.
Done for now, thoughts?

How about we celebrate with some green, or are we gonna have to wait until the next thread?

I'd like to write today. All depends on how things go at work.
Who will make the thread when this one hits bumplimit?

I can make one right now if no one minds.

Sure, do it. It's better to make one sooner, rather than too late.
