Portrait commissions for my sis (@sterelegacy) of her three Zabrak characters Ininarei (Sith), Tubanii (Jedi), and Tuiw (bounty hunter/ ex-Imperial Agent), who were performers on Nar Shadaa called "The ITT Sisters" āØ
Thank you so much for this!! It is amazing seeing my OCs as art!! I love them so much!!
Sometimes I am overwhelmed by the feeling of wanting to shake people and tell them to just make things. Over ten years into writing and a hoard of stories that wouldn't have existed if I hadn't started somewhere to show for it, I have this advice: Even if you think that it's going to be bad, even if you think it's going to cringe, even if you think it would be better if you waited until you got better, just make it now. You won't get better without making things. You won't have the things that you wanted to see to look at if you don't make them.
If it's really as terrible as you think, make it again later after you have improved. No one will stop you. Only you will stop you.
Make things. I beg you.
Lana BenikoāWith her serene and considerate manner, one might mistake Lana Beniko for a Jedi. She is, however, a Sith Lord of great wisdom and strength who has impressed many of her peers in a considerably short period of time with her keen insights into the nature of the Force.
It was Benikoās treatise on the perceived moral parallels of Jedi and Sith in battlefield settings-as well as her passion for unraveling the truths and secrets behind the Jedi-that brought her to the attention of Darth Arkous of the Dark Council. She has since become his most trusted advisor.Ā
With the Revanite plot thwarted, Darth Marr recognized Lanaās talents and appointed her head of Sith Intelligence. Unfortunately, her first assignment as minister ended in disaster when the Sith Emperor consumed all life on Ziost. Since Arcannās rise to power, she has been on the run, devising a plan to find the one person who can return order to the galaxyā¦
An Unexpected Ally-While no SIS database appears to mention Lana Beniko by name, further scrutiny might offer a glimpse into the psyche of this unusual Sith Lord. As detailed in an incident report, a skirmish on Hoth between Republic and Imperial forces during the Treaty of Coruscant ended abruptly when an unidentified female Sith Lord leapt into the midst of the battle, demanding an immediate ceasefire-and an explanation for the fight. When an Imperial officer suggested she wouldnāt understand to nuances of military conflict, he lost his right hand to a lightning-fast lightsaber strike.Ā
The Sith, whose reported appearance closely matches that of Beniko, then told everyone to return to their bases and not reengage. The command was promptly obeyed by all, and the Sith Lord was purportedly never seen by Republic forces again.Ā
Shadow of Revan is still my favorite. Written by Alexander Freed and Charles Boyd. They created my all time favorite, Theron Shan.
Lana and Theron were great allies and continued to be strong supporters to the āOutlanderā in the Knights of the Fallen Empire storyline and beyond.
Hope all is well!
It is! Thank you for asking!!

Galactic Standard Time Measurement
60 Seconds = 1 minute
60 minutes = 1 hour
24 hours = 1 day
Galactic Standard Calendar
5 days = 1 week
7 weeks = 1 month
35 days = 1 month
368 days = 1 year
10 months + 3 Fete (Festival) weeks + 3 holidays = 1 year
Fete/Festival Weeks
New Year Fete Week = first five days of the new year (takes place before the first month)
Festival of Life = Ā five days between the sixth and seventh months. It was marked by parties, get-togethers, and gift-giving.
Festival of Stars =five days between the ninth and tenth months of the year that celebrates interstellar space travel. It was marked by vacations to other worlds most often.
Days of the Week
Primeday (first day of the week)
Centaxday (second day)
Taungsday (third day)
Zhellday (fourth day)
Benduday (fifth/last day of the week)
The Galactic Standard Calendar is based on the luno-solar calendar of Coruscant (from before the official founding of the Empire). It is theĀ āstandardā in both the Republic and the Empire for basic measurements. However, there are many, many variations for various species, planets, etc. This is just theĀ āstandardā used; similar to measurements of weight, etc.Ā
Basically, this is not theĀ āonly calendarā but the one used most often by governments, the military, etc. to be theĀ āstandardā. I thought it might be useful for people writing or roleplaying in the Star Wars galaxies to have a rough idea.
NOTE: There is mention in some sources of a 12 month/368 day calendar, but it doesnāt mention length of weeks, months, etc. other thanĀ ā30-31 daysā so basically seems to be aĀ āreal life calendarā. Iām not 100% sure which is consideredĀ ācanonā so I choose to list the one that was a bit moreĀ ādifferentā for fun.

Gideon couldn't say anything but blearrghhh, mainly because blood was coming enthusiastically out of every hole in her face.

Reblog if you write fic and people can inbox you random-ass questions about your stories, itemized number lists be damned.
A lil infant Potato (aka "The Wobbler" šŖ) taking her first steps š„¹
This is maybe a week or so after she was found? She was very itty bitty and had to grow a bit into her ears xD
Have a meant-to-be-quick Fleetah xD The pose he's in reminds me of when cats lounge in ways that make you think "how is that comfortable???" š

*Inspired by this song & its cover art that appeared in my YT recommendations recently:
Treat anything on Discord as media that will be lost
Do not use Discord to host your files. Do not rely on Discord to preserve your text. DO NOT RELY ON DISCORD FOR ANY KIND OF PRESERVATION OR HOSTING!!
It CAN be lost, it WILL be lost! You must consider Discord as a part of the Core Internet, controlled by one company that hosts the servers.
I thought it was impressive at first that it replaced IRC, but now I am horrified. If the company behind Discord went under today, how many friends would you lose?
How many relationships? How much writing?
You may think this won't happen, but I remember when AIM went down and along with it, entire novels worth of interaction with my oldest friend.
IT CAN HAPPEN TO YOU. IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN. NO COMPANY IS INFALLIBLE.
Back up your files! Download anything you've saved to Discord NOW, before the API changes go into effect! And DO NOT RELY ON THEM FOR HOLDING IMPORTANT FILES!
Here is a program that lets you download any and all of your discord DMs, your servers, everything. You can set the format (raw text, html (dark and light), and others. You can even download the uploaded files not just the text, though that may be just for the command-line version not the GUI window version.
Exports Discord chat logs to a file. Contribute to Tyrrrz/DiscordChatExporter development by creating an account on GitHub.
Please back up your conversations, your stories. I have a backup of everything I care about that runs once a week, with full attachment backups every several months. I write stories on discord, and would be devastated if someone happened to them. You have to have your own local copies of every file you care about.
Writing advice from my uni teachers:
If your dialog feels flat, rewrite the scene pretending the characters cannot at any cost say exactly what they mean. No one says āIām madā but they can say it in 100 other ways.
Wrote a chapter but you dislike it? Rewrite it again from memory. That way youāre only remembering the main parts and can fill in extra details. My teacher who was a playwright literally writes every single script twice because of this.
Donāt overuse metaphors, or they lose their potency. Limit yourself.
Before you write your novel, write a page of anything from your characters POV so you can get their voice right. Do this for every main character introduced.
This is legit good writing advice, especially the first bullet point! In playwriting class we did a bit where every bit of dialogue had to be an accusatory question and it was glorious.
HAPPY (bELATED- it was yesterday) BIRTHDAY COLLIN! (oc)
He eagerly awaits any guests who dare challenge him!! (To get a slice of cake you must either duel him or bring him an offering. But if he doesn't like the offering you have to duel him anyway.)
The cake is a magic cake! If you get a slice it changes into whatever your favorite flavor is. Do you dare challenge him for a piece??
(Swords not provided - you gotta bring your own.)

I used to worry about my ficsā canon characters being too OOC. Then I realized that most are if not all canon characters are OOC to some degree. Iām gonna write that fic!
