Welp, having a hard time finishing the Star Wars Hunters book Battle for the Arena. I really liked the world building of the planet of Vesparra, like…a tourist trap version of Nar Shaddaa. All the fun of Hutt lawlessness without most of its extreme 'downsides.' Podracing, Huttball, and Hunters with gambling and clubs and music…just an illicit Disney World.

The writing was…rather meh though. Rieve's story was a bit of teen drama about her uncertainty, extreme self doubt (perhaps spurred by the Force and her inner dark side)…but it started to drag in the teen drama side of things. Someone is either gaslighting her or hunting her…and Rieve just…keeps on with things. I like that Hunter fights are her day job and making that pretty normal because I love the verisimilitude of there being punch clock jobs in a galaxy far, far away…but she's also a Star Wars protagonist and needs to be a bit more proactive. Perhaps her distrust of authority figures and that no authority figure really had helped her before is a part of not asking for help…but again, she's Force Sensitive Star Wars protagonist she needs to do things actively.

And…look, this is two years after Endor, I like that Rieve doesn't understand her powers, that eldritch feeling of untrained Force Sensitivity. But look, there is a galactic wide fame guy with Force powers. Every story doesn't need Luke and the rest of the Skywalker clan, but stories where he could and perhaps SHOULD show up and he doesn't without adequate explanation are odd. If yer havin' problems with your uncontrolled Force powers, maybe…just maybe, you should try to get in touch with the Jedi the New Republic has plastered over every holochannel since Endor. Send a message to the NR to care of Luke Skywalker, I'm pretty sure somebody would forward it along for you.

Krokus as a baby with his mom, as a teenager with his little foster/sibling kid and just last session with a new friend who tried to snap him out of a nervous monologue. Either our Tieflings in general are very affectionate, or they just really love Krokus! (and while he may not look like it in all of the pictures, he appreciates it, go squish that purple cat)

Does this count?

Remember when he told elfman he's into thick chick, and then we get this!

hey, friendship pro-tip? don't joke about nearly meeting your demise like it's nothing, especially not to your friends with a sheltered upbringing, you're gonna get yelled at

I threw some quick color(-izes) on these huggie sketches of Krokus with his mom, foster sibling/kid and his new best friend who unknowingly does his utmost to squeeze any homesickness and anxiety out of him he is so loved OTL

and then they beat up a defenseless piece of wood together

when your service worker homie who is very diligent, versatile and skilled but ALSO kind of simple is confused about the concepts of 'time off' and 'being paid'
