Some of my less known OCs + text posts

(because they deserve more attention from me and i’m only capable of producing memes)

Bonus (one chain):

 Hey look, a whole bunch of side OCs that I’m never going to talk about again but I love them with every bit of my soul.

I mentioned them in previous post (not about songs, of course), so I decided to introduce them properly. Kinda. Thank @itstheelvenjedi​ for that.

Also, I thought giving a kind of timeline (and their ages) would be good. Most, if not all events, described below, happened between the Treaty of Coruscant and first year of class stories (10 years after the Treaty of Coruscant).

In order of meeting each other:

Lorrena, or just Lorri (born 31 BTC) - a sort of mom figure in this found family, the soul and heart of “Silver Claw”’s (their ship’s name) crew. Was born in slavery, but her parents did what they could to get her off-world and find a better place for her. Lorri grew up on the streets of Coruscant, having an interest in first aid and basic medicine. She also had a dream of owning a cantina, a dream she followed and made real (with the help of her crew). Despite having to deal with criminal elements, Lorri is kind, forgiving, hopeful, optimistic and always ready to help people (but won’t turn a reward, because altruism is great but you gotta eat something).

Vortunon (born 32 BTC), Vort was born on Coruscant in a problematic family. His parents argued and fought each other a lot, his father has gotten himself in gambling and owed a huge debt, but with a few tricks he passed those debts to his wife and left the family. Vort had to work from the young age to help his mother, and at he had to leave the academy (was going to become a pilot) to do more work and gain more money. Met Lorri around 6-7 years BTC, and she was trying to help him and his mother as she could. Unfortunately, Vort’s mother died of being overworked and serious illnesses. After some time, the debt were paid and Vort was even able to buy the ship he was provided before (the one that will become home for everyone else). Having to deal with all kinds of people, Vort learned how to make deals with just about anybody without blaster. Cool head, practical, not without compassion, but not as altruistic as his friend.

Thassan (born 46 BTC) fought in the Great Galactic War, but was becoming more and more disappointed in Republic’s army towards the end of the war. After the Treaty of Coruscant they had to deal with lack of military operations against the Sith Empire, which led to disobeying a strict order and getting an assignment as security officer at one of training facilities on Coruscant as punishment. Near the end of first year ATC has caught two individuals trying to steal explosives from the base. Realising that they aren’t exactly thieves, Thassan learned about their motivation (which was to get help in getting back their money) and because of getting tired of doing nothing during last year agreed to help, ending up joining the “Silver Claw”’s crew with Lorri and Vort. Thassan was always known for having a rebellious personality, always craving for action and not being good at following orders.

Elliadra (born 16 BTC), or just Ell was training as a padawan, though never reached the rank of knight. Always looking for action instead of meditating, breaking the rules, craving adventures, she was judged by her master a lot. Having some major disagreements with the Jedi Order and her master in particular, Elliadra decided to follow her own path and left the Order near the end of first year ATC. Tried to explore the galaxy and help people along the way, but not everything went as smooth as she was expecting. At some point she found herself in a problematic situation and was reluctant to accept the help from Lorri, Vort and Thassan, but not having any other options had to work with them. They got along with time and Ell decided to join the crew as well. While not being a perfect Jedi, Elliadra had the best intentions and never showed signs of the dark side.

Haizha (born 37 BTC) has rather mysterious past - place of birth, family, allies, rivals were unknown. What is known about her is her professionalism and pragmatism, which helped Haizha to be on her own in the underworld as long as she remembers herself. Somewhere in the middle of 2 ATC was hired to kill Thassan, but failed to do so. Even more, she helped the target and his associates to find the client and deal with him. Having a need for protection and a place, she temporarily joined the crew, but later on decided to stay. 

Rykeer (born 35 BTC) was a simple worker as a ship mechanic on Nar Shadaa. Had a quiet life until the shop he was working in got bankrupt. A few weeks after that Rykeer got robbed by the crew. That was a mistake, of course, and after an apology he was offered to join the “Silver Claw” crew, to which he agreed.

Cescanun (born 12 BTC), or just Ces was only 9 years old when their aunt abandoned her and her elder brother alone. Her brother quickly found a way to survive by being a part of a criminal gang. Despite that fact, the gang actually protected these two, plus they had talents: Ces’ brother was good at podracing, which let them win a good amount of money, when Ces was a gifted slicer. Their first encounter with the “Silver Claw’s crew was even before Rykeer joined them. They acted as informant from her gang to Lorri and the rest. Her brother, who was always looking after her and the only reason Ces stayed in her gang, died in a race, and Ces asked if the “Silver Claw” could use a slicer and got a place on the ship. Despite their rough childhood, Ces is full of energy, cheerful, confident, likes to do things for fun. Competitor for the title “The Biggest Dumbass”.

Drechard (born 17 BTC) was a pilot from a proud Imperial family. Just as every other member of his family, he was going to serve the Sith Empire, but unlike everyone else, Drechard acknowledged the monstrosities of the regime he was serving. He couldn’t stand that and left the Empire, but not to join the Republic, but to help those who suffered from Sith. But with anxiety and no experience he quickly got into more troubles than he could handle. Trying to just survive, Drechard was hired to steal and transport the same cargo “Silver Claw” needed. His attempt to steal the cargo has failed, and the crew needed to take him to learn about his client. Eventually, he stayed on the ship, hiding his Imperial past. He is not what you think of when you hear “imperial”. Soft, anxious, having best intentions, talent for piloting and screwing things up. Competitor for the title “The Biggest Dumbass”.

I actually introduced Miatra once, just never mentioned her being a part of this story. She is Drechard’s elder sister (born 20 BTC), and after his betrayal was ordered by her master to kill her parents as a show of her utter loyalty to the Sith. She also started a hunt for her brother, but after several attempts was unable to capture him. Is she going to join this crew or not is still unclear.

Swoop event is on! Since I want to get my hands on that sweet sweet Blatant Beks' jacket I'm slowly getting to the Champion rank. What I've got today:

- I've only managed to complete Tatooine's course once today. For some reason it just doesn't want to get completed

- Tatooine is the most fps-friendly for my laptop (bc of graphics), yet it has a glitched cutscene

- Boy I've forgotten how much I love causing chaos on Vintu. And no, he will not change clothes for racing.

(also a little detail on that mirialan character - since she was a part of Blatant Beks gang, she likes loud sounds and explosions. just a thought that crossed my mind, nothing special)

🖊 for Jett and 🖊 for an OC of your choice, hope I'm not too late 💗

The only time you’d be late is when I haven’t shown any signs of life for a month or two and deleted my blog. And maybe not even then 💗

Starting with an OC of my choosing, which this time is... actually two (because I decided to give my side characters some time).

When the ‘Silver Claw’s crew agreed to accept Drechard despite him trying to steal the cargo they were paid for, Ces was happier about that than the rest because someone with enough chaotic dumbass energy to rival her own is on board. They quickly developed a brother-sister bond, which is understandable, I suppose: Drechard has defected from the Empire, leaving parents and sister behind, and Ces’ relationship with her biological brother was getting worse before the accident in a race. Have they gotten themselves into trouble because Drechard wanted to stay away from the abandoned base, but when Ces said “pretty please?” he gave in? Yes. Were they shot at because Drechard wanted a sandwich and talked Ces into going to the town even though they were told to not leave the spaceport? Of course. Did they regret such adventures even once? No.

They had their difficulty on the way to becoming the best disastrous siblings, though - Ces is used to friendly teasing, which could get hurtful for Drechard, who isn’t exactly used to sarcasm and friendly jokes. Sure, he had those from his friends in the Empire, but I didn’t say he was able to understand them. It took some effort from both of them to get past this misunderstanding, but in the end, this only strengthened their bond. The fact that not Lorri, the most accepting person, not Vort, Drechard’s mentor and father figure, not Ell, the girl he’s crushing on badly, but Ces was the first to learn about his Imperial past does say something about those two.

Now to Jett, and it’s not even going to be sad! What a miracle.

There was a sweet moment right after winning the Great Hunt (but before the ceremony) when everyone was (kind of) praising each other, and Mako hugged Jett, and the latter just froze and didn’t know how to proceed. Poor girl was never going to be a character that hasn’t experienced genuine friendship and close relationships before the class story, quite the opposite. Jett had all of those and then it was taken away in a rather painful way, so she stayed away from people and did not allow herself to bond with others. As the result, she hasn’t been hugged or touched (kicks and punches do not count) for a long time.

At this point, Jett is a bit more open to Mako than she was at the beginning of the Great Hunt, but it still wasn’t enough to expect a hug. Imagine: always seemingly tough and snarky Champion of the Great Hunt who just handed Tarro Blood’s and Kellian Jarro’s (a Jedi Master, no less) asses to them, is blushing because a slicer girl wrapped hands around her. And Gault’s commentary was appreciated as always (”I’d say she’s blushing, but I think it’s blood” pshhsgasph. Keep at it, Gault, and she may even learn a thing or two about flattery and compliments. Now stop laughing and join the hug). I think after this Jett didn’t care much about the ceremony and all that (but she still went, I mean).

What is this, another excuse to make an OC meme? It sure is, all thanks to @raven-of-domain-kwaad  and @chaoticspacelesbians for tagging me :)

Not sure who hasn’t done this already, and it’s maybe a bit late, so I’ll leave the tag open and say Happy Halloween 🎃

There are too many characters (not even half of all my children but ok) so I’ll try to give short comments on them.

“Dresses up”: Shailla (usually she’d do nothing, but when she gets to spend more time with her sister, Raen talks her into dressing up; probably dresses up as scary Sith or creatures that make loud noises), Raen (what doesn’t she do on Halloween? Every year makes a new costume), Lorri (supportive mom friend supports her crew in making a scary costume).

“Goes to Halloween party“: Xaetel (at first he doesn’t consider going to a party as something worthy of Emperor’s Wrath, but Vette convinces him otherwise, and he starts to enjoy it), Jaria (just here for drinks), Ces (is here for fun and sweeties)

“Eats candy till they pass out“: Raen (my poor sweet tooth will eat all the candies she got from trick or treating), Vestium (the only reason he came to trick or treating), Ces (only after doing everything else to call it a day), Ollin (sweet candies for a sweet person), Vintu (he may be this scary Emperor’s Wrath, but he also has a sweet tooth)

“Goes trick or treating no matter how old they are“: Vestium (only for candies, but it also reminds him of his little sis), Jett (only if Raen or Blizz talk her into this, though she does have fun with it), Raen (because she’s a child), Drechard, Ces, Elliadra (these three go together to have some quality friendly time because they are basically children)

“Binge watches horror movies“: Airistan (doesn’t care that much about all that Halloween stuff, but wants to have fun, so horror movies it is. Can’t be any more scary than her real life), Xaele (she’s just tired of pretending to be someone you are not, and she’s not going to do it for a Halloween as well), Jett (when isn’t talked into trick or treating)

“Scares the shit out of children“: on purpose: Vintu (to take their candies and eat them until he passes out), Reena (why to pretend to be someone scary when you can be someone scary?); on accident: Raen, Drechard (they screw a lot of things up, so no wonder if something went wrong and children got scared)

“Tries to summon a demon“: on purpose: Auletta (she’s not having fun so why not to spoil the night for everyone else and make fun of them?); on accident: Bal’sara (she may be the incredible Barsen’thor, but should not be allowed near any Jedi or Sith artifacts)

And template if anyone needs it

[a-master-procrastinator]

Yep, I started another bounty hunter (because of course I did, tho she’s a character for another story), but this time I’m doing it without Mako on starter planets where it’s possible. Turns out, some dialogues are different from without her.

This is dialogue for the first option. Nothing too special, though it’s a neat conversation.

The second option leads to this little conversation about women in this profession. It makes sense when you don’t bring Mako, but way funnier if you have a female companion with you (like Shae or Darth Hexid. yes, i know they aren’t supposed to be here story wise, but i want to have fun so i ignore that fact).

And this one is my personal favorite. Yeah, I also didn’t like Hutta that much. 

For the rest of dialogues on Dromund Kaas I haven’t noticed many differences, and I don’t think there will be much more. We’ll see.

[a-master-procrastinator]

I also saw this and filled with some of my OCs (because my brain is stupid and why not?) 

Thank you, @burnonyou, for some fun in these trying times.
