Hey! Here’s a Star Wars OC that I think about a lot but I haven’t shared with anyone!
(The funny thing is, she’s Palpatine’s granddaughter. I’ve had this OC for about two years now. Can I sue JJ yet?)
•Name: Odessa Rowan (Darth Vexus)
• appearance: Long brown hair, large brown (yellow) eyes, lip scar, cheek scar
•afflictions: The Sith/ The First Order
•Family: Sheev Palpatine (grandfather) Elania Palpatine-Rowan (mother) Circo Rowan (father) Mittie Rowan-Crono (Aunt) Trisgera Crono (Uncle)
Odessa was born fifteen years after the defeat of the empire to Elania Rowan and Circo Rowan- Elania being the youngest child of the deceased Emperor of the Galactic Empire, Sheev Palpatine. Elania, who was just as strong with the force as her father, had a vision of her father returning from the grave, and she knew that her daughter was not safe. Elania and Circo both trusted Odessa to Circo’s sister, Mittie, and her husband, Trisgera, who were tavern owners on Tatooine at the time. Eventually, though, both Elania and Circo were killed by the Sith for not disclosing the location of their daughter. When they died, Odessa was only five, and she felt the disturbance in the force, and cried for seven days and nights.
When the first order came into power, Mittie and Trisgera joined the Resistance, leaving their quiet life on Tatooine for a Resistance Base on Cherru.
Odessa never quite got along with the other kids on the base, and keep to herself. Meanwhile, the marriage between Mittie and Trisgera began to sour, and the two often were under the influence of some type of alcohol or drug. This lead to often mistreatment to Odessa, and how she gained her facial scars.
Even when Odessa tried to tell someone, to get help, she was ignored. And as the children on the base grew up, their dislike of Odessa turned to jeers and mocking.
Odessa, now at 17, was miserable. She contemplated death many times, but she stayed strong, and kept her composure, her rage, internally.
One night, at 17, after a terrible beating from Trisgera, she broke down sobbing in her room. She soon felt an arm on her shoulder. She jerked back in shock, looking up to see a ghostly Zabrack looking down at her. He introduced himself as Darth Maul, one of the old Sith Lords before the rise of the empire. He told her that she had great potential in the force, and that he wanted to help her channel her rage that she held inside. She agreed, and she trained under the ghostly Sith Lord for three years, learning the ways of the dark side of the force, and preparing her revenge.
One night, after her training was completed, she prepared her plan. She snuck away from the base, and with her uncles speeder, arrived at the city of Kago, a dirty city that many bounty hunters and smugglers resided. The city was also crawling with first order storm troopers.
They knew there was a secret Resistance Base on this planet, but couldn’t find it. And Odessa knew this.
At one of the many cantinas, Odessa, with her hood up, approached a group of stormtroopers, and tells them the location of the base, and tells them her plan for the rebels. The group agree to her plan and rush out to tell their supperiors. She quietly slips back to the base and pretended she never left.
That night, with the moon high in the sky, she unleashed her attack. All of the children were having a party to celebrate the anniversary of the fall of the empire. She joined the group of kids beating the shit out of a Death Star piñata, and when they noticed her, they made fun of her, as usual. It was only when she ignited her double bladed lightsaber that they knew they were fucked. When the adults heard the screams, they were too late, a hooded figure had killed a majority of the base’s children. They attacked her and shot at her, but she deflected the shots, and then, first order troops arrived and fucked shit up.
When the massacre was over, all of the children were dead, and only 150 adults remained, including Trisgera and Mittie. When she came across them, she force choked Mittie in front of Trisgera, who only could watch in horror as his wife was slowly killed.
She went with the first order and helped with any information she could, making the aquatintence of General Hux, Kylo Ren, and Captain Phasma. Though Hux offered her a reward, she denied it, saying her reward was finally being able to watch the rebels die. Though she did ask to be the one who killed Trisgera.
After torturing and eventually killing Trisgera, Maul declares her a true lord of the Sith, and knighted her as Darth Vexus.
At 21, She now travels the galaxy, both carrying out the First Order’s will, and finding a way to bring her master back to life.
I’m actually planning on cosplaying her in 2020, (which is literally days away now holy shit) and I wanted to share her with you guys! I also made some aesthetic boards for her as well! Enjoy!
