POV: the Daimyo of Tatooine and Mand’alor seem weirdly into head butting? Must be because they’re such good friends.

No culturally romantic gestures happening here 👀

Tatooine Gang getting ✨arrested✨

(again)

Wasn’t going to finish this drawing, let alone render it this much. But I got possessed by the spirit of ‘Silly-Tatooine-Characters’ and when I woke up this had been done lol.

“Give me Star Wars characters and I’ll shit-ily draw them in IG”

There’s something fun about drawing in an app not meant to be drawn in, with the intention of not trying too hard. Highly recommend.

For your daemon au, how come none of the characters have daemons that are non earth animals? Like loth-cats or something :o?

Hi!

Thank you for asking this because this is actually something I’ve thought of but haven’t had the chance to talk about!

When I was first coming up with ideas for this AU, I originally thought about giving everyone ONLY starwars animals/creatures as daemons. But at the end of the day there are more irl animals than starwars animals, so going with real animals as daemons gave me more to work with.

THEN I thought about mixing it up and having some starwars animals AND irl animals as daemons. But something thats always kinda bothered me about His Dark Materials (the source material for this AU), is that they have like normal animals in their world. And as far as I’ve been able to research, there’s no explanation for how people can tell when an animal is a regular animal, or someone’s daemon. Also I just find it wild that in that world, it’s normal to eat animal meat still. Considering people’s physical manifestation of the other half of their soul, looks just like the thing they eat.

(If anyone who’s read the books knows anything on this or has an explanations, feel free to explain in the comments. I cannot find a concrete answer for this.)

So for my AU I thought it would make world-building sense for daemons to be ‘earth’ animals and normal non-daemon, animals to be the creatures from Star Wars (tookas, varactyls, nexus, massifs, porgs, ect.).

Basically in the AU daemons are strictly ‘earth’ animals so that they cant be mistaken for a not-daemon!

Hope this doesn’t come off as rude, but I’m a little surprised you didn’t make Plo Koon’s deamon in your deamon AU a raven, given that the Wolffe Pack is populated by wolf-dog deamons, and there’s the well known symbiotic relationship between ravens and wolves in the wild. Just a thought that’s been stuck in my brain for a while

It’s not rude! Thanks for sharing your thoughts!

My answer to why I didn’t make Plo’s daemon a raven . . . is that I just didn’t think of it 😅

If I HAD thought of that I definitely would have done that instead! 😂 Thats such a good idea! Damn, who let y’all be so clever.

I gave Plo an Opsrey because apparently Osprey are very good parents, and everyone always jokes about Plo being the Wolfpack’s dad. So in that respect it made sense to me.

But the real life relationship between wolves and ravens is such a good point! Man I wish I had thought of that!!!! It matches thematically so well!

But hey! Maybe this idea gives you a reason to make your own Star Wars daemon AU, with a raven daemon for Plo Koon. 😄

only the best art on my IG story lol

[m00ntunaart]

As soon as my Caffeine Overdosed Squirrel brain can focus for longer that 20 minutes, its so over for you.

(‘You’ being the ‘What if Deathwatch won the Mandalorian Civil War’ AU I’m trying to write.)

(Also nicknamed the ‘Ghosts talk to Din Djarin against his will’ AU. Yes they are the same AU. It’s a weird AU)

The basic ‘Lore’ or ‘Concept’ of Daemons.

In case you’ve been following my SW daemon AU and have no idea what it’s about lol.

Posted this on my Instagram, but thought I’d share it here too.

ALSO just so it’s clear, the idea of daemons comes from the book series/show called ‘His Dark Materials’. So if the concept seems interesting maybe check out the books or the show.

[m00ntunaart]

Some quick doodles of young Paz Viszla and Din Djarin, and their quintessential sibling relationship.

Slides 1-2:

I fully accept the headcanon that Paz will talk so much shit about Din. But the minute someone else does, he will beat their ass. ONLY PAZ GETS TO HARASS HIM.

HE'S HIS APOSTATE BROTHER TO BULLY.

Slides 3-9:

I headcanon the reason Paz is so 'on Din's case' in the show is because HE HAS NOT FORGIVEN DIN FOR THE ABSOLUTE NIGHTMARE HE WAS AS A KID.

I like to imagine that because Paz is a Viszla, his clan is respected and has responsibilities to watch out for the Covert. So even as a young kid, Paz is often left to watch (babysit) the foundlings. So in the "comic" a young Paz is watching after a just adopted Din (who hasn't taken the Creed yet).

The adults in the Covert are like 'This small traumatized child is mute, polite and shy. We can leave him with Paz. Then the minute they leave, Din turns into the ratty, gremlin child he really is. Then proceeds to run around, bite, climb and eat everything off the floor.

Which is what has happened in this "comic" lol.

And no, I don't know what Din is eating, Paz doesn't know what Din is eating, and Din certainly doesn't know what he's eating.

(And even if young Paz is pissed off Din only becomes feral when the adults aren't around. Deep down feels happy that young Din is comfortable enough with Paz to act out around him.

(Also if you're wondering, I'm imagining in slides 3-9, Paz is 13 and Din is 8.)

hi!! Big fan of ur work, what is the next instalment in ur daemon starwars au?? 🫶🫶🫶🫶

Hi! Thank You! I’m so happy you like my stuff 😁.

My next planned installment will probably be the 501st clone troopers (so Fives, (pre-tbb) Echo, Tup, Dogma, Jesse, Hardcase, Kix). Maybe also some of the 212th troopers if I have the time to get them all in one post.

The Jedi Council and 501st Troopers were the top two voted groups when I asked on my IG what people wanted to see in the AU. So I knew I wanted to do those two groups for sure.

After that though, we’ll see! I might end up holding another vote on my IG. So keep an eye out 👀

3rd Star Wars daemon AU post!

Here by popular demand: The Jedi Council and their daemons!

Depa Billaba - Hooked Billed Kite (Taryz)

Mace Windu - Bald Eagle (Maisha)

Yoda - Ostrich (Kieachkta)

Shaak Ti - Hyacinth Macaw (Thevren)

(Commander Colt - Anatolian Shepherd (Pistol))

Plo Koon - Osprey (Averyl)

Ki-Adi Mundi - Great Blue Heron (Czirda)

Kit Fisto - Blue Footed Booby (Krios)

Now onto my random AU lore and thoughts:

JEDI LORE TIME: So, as I’ve said in my last daemon AU post, the Jedi generally have bird daemons. This is by nurture, not nature. The way the Jedi teach young force-users to interact with the Force usually ends up directing their daemons to settle into a bird species of some kind. Which conveniently is around the time a Jedi Initiate is either chosen to be a Jedi Knight or be sent to the Jedi Corps. While it is not a rule that a Jedi Knight has to have a bird daemon, there are stigmas in the Jedi culture that lead to Jedi Knights and Masters not wanting to pick Padawans with not-bird daemons. This was one of the reasons the Council was hesitant to take in Anakin originally. He was already past the age of being nurtured to have his daemon settle as a bird, as he was raised outside the Temple.

(If you’re wondering why Obi-Wan doesn’t have a bird daemon, look at my last post. But to summarize his daemon settled while on Melida/Daan. So not ideal circumstances) (Also Qui-Gon Jinn cares not for cultural taboos, so he did not care much that Obi-Wan’s daemon ended up not being a bird lol)

The exceptions to this bird-daemon rule is generally Jedi in the Corps and Jedi Shadows (I will be making a Quinlan Vos post at some point that goes into that more).

DEPA BILLABA and her daemon, Taryz, who is a Hooked Billed Kite.

Okay for the life of me I cannot remember the reason I picked Depa’s daemon 😅, but it was probably just: ‘I like how Hooked Billed Kites look’. So a good reason obv.

I inserted some silly interactions between Obi-Wan and Depa, and Kee-Ayt and Taryz. I headcanon that since they are the two youngest council members, they will go out of their way to act like children in front of the older council members. Just to make the others role their eyes and say ‘kids 🙄’. Despite the fact that both of them are like in their mid 30s-40s. But besides them acting like two siblings alone in the back seat of a car, they are close with each other. Taryz is the daemon most comfortable being casually around Kee-Ayt, out of the other daemons in the Council. (I imagine that since most Jedi daemons are birds, sometimes other Jedi don’t know how to interact with Kee-Ayt)

MACE WINDU and his daemon, Maisha, who is a Bald Eagle. 

In the Temple there runs a rumor amongst the Padawans about which came first: Mace being bald? Or Mace’s daemon settling as a Bald Eagle? A real ‘chicken or the egg’ question lol.

But more seriously, I really did just end up picking a Bald Eagle daemon because I wanted to make bald jokes hahaha. That and Bald Eagles just naturally look pissed all the time, which matches well with Mace’s ‘resting bitch face’.

YODA and his daemon, Kieachkta, who is an Ostrich.

My whole concept for Yoda was just: ‘if Yoda is a small species, then he should get a big ass daemon to balance it out’. And yes, Yoda rides around on Kieachkta because of course he does. And when he can’t hit your ankles with his stick, he’ll get Kieachkta to peck the back of your head (which hurts ow).

(If you’re wondering, all of Yoda’s species have bigger daemons. Like Yaddle has an Emu daemon).

SHAAK TI and her daemon, Thevren, who is a Hyacinth Macaw.

My only thoughts for Shaak’s daemon was I wanted it to be big and colorful. 1. Because she’s just this tall figure with long montrals. She just needed a big bird species to go with her impressive figure. 2. She just has always had a fun color scheme, so I thought a colorful bird of some kind would be fun. SO A HYACINTH MACAW. They’re huge and a beautiful blue color (that matches her montral stripes). I also just wanted her to have a fun, friendly looking daemon. Since she’s on Kamino most of The Clone Wars, and interacting with Tubies and Cadets. I think her having a big, loving, approachable looking daemon was just right. (Which is why in this AU, she was chosen to be the one working with the younger clones). Hence why I have so many doodles of her daemon with young clones’ daemons. 

Plus I added an extra doodle of Commander Colts’ daemon, Pistol, who is a breed of Livestock Guardian Dog. Since Colt is also on Kamino, he often is ‘herding’, ‘protecting’ and ‘training’ the young clones. So a herding/guardian  dog daemon felt right for him. (Pistol is the bad cop to Thevren’s good cop lol)

PLO KOON and his daemon, Averyl, who is an Osprey.

Tbh I didn’t have any idea what bird I wanted Plo to have. So I ended up googling ‘bird species that are good parents’ lol. And Osprey were on that list! Idk how true that is, but IN STARWARS IT IS NOW TRUE.

 Plo is just The Jedi Dad Of All Time (*cough cough* Ahsoka *cough cough* Wolffe *cough cough* Wolf Pack), so he got a Parent Of All Time bird lol. 

And yes Averyl spends all her free time trying to preen EVERY member of The Wolf Pack. Is that physically possible? I don’t know, but don’t even try to tell Averyl she can’t do it. All her furry dog children WILL feel her affection.

KIT FISTO and his daemon, Krios, who is a Blue Footed Booby.

All I can say is I knew I wanted Kit to have a sea bird, because he’s The Swimming Jedi^TM. And I love Blue Footed Boobies. 

Also Kit is a silly guy who deserves a silly bird, with silly blue feet and a silly name.

KI-ADI MUNDI and his daemon, Czirda, who is a Great Blue Heron.

Ki-Adi is a long, lanky looking dude so he gets a long, lanky bird. 

I have spoken.

(Also I see a lot of Blue Herons around where I live, so they’re a favorite of mine).

Something something Detective Pikachu but it's with Cody, and Obi-Wan turned into a shiny Luxio (because I'm the artist and Luxio/Shinx/Luxray are my favorite Pokémon).

Btw I know nothing about the Detective Pikachu games and only watched the movie once like 7 years ago. So this is mostly just me wanting to draw Obi-Wan as a Pokémon, and Cody's there too because I love him.

The plot is just Luxio Obi-Wan and Cody running around trying to figure out how to turn Obi-Wan back into a human and along the way they somehow uncover the Sith Plot and save the Galaxy. All while Obi-Wan doesn't have opposable thumbs.
