To add to the discussion/reminder that Theron Shan is poc and not white: a seemingly small yet significant detail about his design-- true to both the game model and concept art-- is that his eyes are monolid.

This trait is shared with Satele Shan:

Monolids are common among people of East and Southeast Asian descent.

For my fellow artists out there; here's a guide on portraying Asian traits and avoiding whitewashing [*largely applies to East Asian]. I bring this up mainly cus I often see art portraying both Theron and Satele without their monolids.

Side note: though in-game Jace Malcom has double-lid eyes

I've seen instances where he also has monolids, like in cinematics. Felt this was something worth noting.

Overall, in any case: both Satele and Malcom are very obviously not white and have features notably absent from art of Theron, official and fan made.

Keeping Theron's parents in mind when portraying him is important even when things between official art, cinematic trailers, and in-game look a bit inconsistent and some speculativeness may be needed. Fan-artists and official artists alike often seem to struggle with giving Theron his parent's features, to show him with ethnic traits; that needs to change.

Bottom line: Theron is poc! Both of his bio parents are poc! And that should show in how he's visually portrayed!

White-ifying poc characters is bafflingly common in Star Wars media and fandom btw (I see whitewashed Clones very often for instance 😭). Let's kill this trend!! Please!!

making a face as I ignore canon ending for rpgs because despite how utterly horrible everyone is in my party I want them to experience found family anyway. like no you are STAYING. HERE. WITH ME. AND ALL *OUR* LITTLE GAGGLE OF CO-DEPENDENT TRAUMATIZED IDIOTS. No actually that horrible thing that happened to all of us is our glue now, you have no say in this. Yes I know I spent 75% of the game with all of you in-fighting and threatening each other. Get over here and get in the 'get along' shirt now.

i agree so much about making your blorbos pathetic but i do fear that many take this to mean 'make them more traditionally feminine/submissive' which genuinely hurts my soul. make your blorbos pathetic in interesting character-oriented ways. understand their neuroses and turn the dials up to eleven. juxtapose the parts of life they handle extremely well with the parts of their lives that make them eat shit. make them angry. make them cold. make them pave their own way to hell while building walls preventing them from seeing any other way. please i'm begging you no more pathetic as an euphemism for bottoming im gonna mclose it.

I love doing the early SWTOR story with seasonal companions because you'll get a CS where some asshole challenges you to a duel cause you're alone with him and he thinks he can get away with it now, but suprise! Out of my pocket jumps Guy With Guns who two shots the bozo and then the CS kicks back in and he's like bewildered how I did it.

[tacogoats-swtor]

every day i mourn this guy cause why the hell are you giving me whatever gay shit is happening here and then ~ THAT ~ happens. horrible. evil.

playing kotor 2 light side is really fun until you confront the council and they’re like. so you’ve been helping people and making friends and reconciling with your past. but we have to put you down now :/ sorry

[force-walker]

jedi knight simultaneously the sacrificial lamb and the scapegoat of the Jedi order 😔🙏 playing a slightly DS jedi knight after chapter 2 onwards is insane because everyone is talking about destiny and the will of the force and how you have to be the one to face the emperor and ever since you arrived on Tython people have been molding you into a weapon and Satele really gambles it all on you. if you defeat the emperor and hold to the light side then she was right all along and everything you went through was worth it and if you do it but you fall then she was still right and you were the one who wasn’t strong enough despite the fact you got 0 guidance and support about how much fighting and killing you were asked to do despite the fact she was the one who told you that the living force affects the one who does the killing . like she couldn’t get too involved because she had to trust the will of the force but even if the jedi knight freaks and insists they need help or they can’t do this they’re only given platitudes and not teaching. not at all helped by the Sith who joins their crew and reinforces the same lessons but in a different way . me when I do everything asked of me and more up to and including the Sith emperor and an publicly humiliated on live holotv and denied the rank of master and given the pity title of commander/general by the REPUBLIC SENATE and not the jedi order because I couldn’t keep my head above water the way they wanted me to

If I were to include all the characters I would like to romance beyond the original class story companions there would need to be infinite options so I narrowed it down to these.
