In honor of making a brand new Tumblr for my SWTOR legacy, I decided to start things off with a #meetmyOC post!
This is my main, favorite character, and the one I’ve put my own personality into the most. My chaotic neutral/light leaning, disaster baby of a Sith Assassin. This is Edessa, who Theron refers to in affectionately disrespectful terms as “Darth Whatever”, but if anyone else tried to call her that, she would light their bone marrow on fire with Force Lightning. She jokingly calls him ✨ Pub Scum ✨ but he’s her Pub Scum. In game she is Darth Imperius and is currently L1 alignment. Were she a real person in the world, she would have the personality of Cher Horowitz with the delivery of Marla Singer.
As an Arkanian Offshoot, she has to protect her eyes nearly everywhere she goes so she favors full face helmets in game, and in my headcanon she enjoys wearing the most ridiculous sunglasses she can find when she has downtime, so naturally she is waiting on pins and needles for the next nightlife event so she can score herself some sweet high roller shades. She also can’t wait to wear them everywhere and make Theron question his life choices more than he already does.
Edessa doesn’t care much for the Empire but since this is the hand she was dealt, she’s playing it to her advantage. She is often sarcastic and unpredictable, but generally doesn’t enjoy killing those weaker than her and will often let them go unless they really deserve the business end(s) of her dualsaber. As an acolyte she regularly mouthed off to the Overseers and that habit did not change once she was paired up with Zash. It’s a miracle she survived Korriban at all, so really, she’s just happy to be here. She really ought to pay Lana in headache stims for all the messiness she puts her through, recently she returned to Odessen with a fully grown akk dog that she has decided to name Spotchka, or “Spot”, as you would. After joining the Dark Council and assuming control of the Sphere of Ancient Knowledge, she chose to focus more of her attention on ancient technologies. She’s discovered she has a knack for slicing and she loves tinkering with droids. She wishes a certain spy would’ve continued his kill streak and taken out Acina so she could’ve taken over the Technology Sphere instead.
In game, her name used to be her actual canon name, but when the thought about Theron calling her Darth Whatever popped into my head, I couldn’t resist changing it and I get a chuckle every time I see her name plate. I’m really hoping someone does another PVP grind event for the Scare Bear title sometime soon because if any of my OCs fits that title, it’s her.
This is by far my favorite OC and the one you’ll probably be seeing the most. I’m on Star Forge, if you happen to see me in game, say hi!
