Sharad Hett: Is that krayt dragon tiny, or just far away in perspective? Krayt Dragon: [snarls and pounces at him] Sharad Hett: PERSPECTIVE! PERSPECTIVE!

[blackkatmagic]

If it's alright, I am really interested in those Screenshots! (Referrering to the Tusken-Jedi post). Thank you for the explanation and the context! Just hearing how A'Sharad has been handled makes me sad. And it's even more bitter once one thinks about how other jedi are allowed to keep their culture and don't have to decide. Also really, how has Dark Woman made it so far. How.

(For context, this is their first meeting right after Ki-Adi-Mundi gets attacked by a krayt dragon and Sharad's band of Tuskens kills it - specifically A'Sharad does, as a rite of passage.)

(Ki-Adi-Mundi gets asked a lot to put his filter mask back on so the Tuskens will be more comfortable around him.)

(This is. after Ki-Adi-Mundi knows that Sharad Hett has been training his son among the Tuskens for at least a decade?? Idk what the line of reasoning was here.)

And then immediately after A'Sharad steps into this fight and stops it by throwing people away with the Force:

And then as a bonus, the Dark Woman training A'Sharad after Sharad's death. The first one is during the spar, after he's landed a hit on her. The second and third are several minutes after, when A'Sharad makes a comment about how he was holding back because she wasn't his enemy. Also, immediately after her sucker-punching his padawan, Ki-Adi-Mundi jumps in with "yeah she has a point", which. uh, yikes:

If you have any more specific panels you want to see, let me know! My Marvel subscription needs to be good for something, ha.

“Daughter of the Dewback” Star Wars fanfic

This is an alternate universe story-ish. The character Xiaan Amersu is left in the middle of nowhere Tatooine. She runs into some Tuskens (including Sharad and A’Sharad). The major headcanon part is Xiaan’s master. After Master J'Mikel's death, she must have been assigned another master to learn from. Canon never went into details into this, so I had to make it up. Since she seemed to take Master Oppo Rancisis’ death hard, I figured he must have been her master. If anyone else likes this idea, please feel free to use it in your headcanon for your own stories.

As for this tale, I must admit my favorite part is the cute baby dewback and baby bantha. This fanfic also aided me with later stories because it was one of the first to deal with communication gaps. Xiaan doesn’t speak Tusken, and I found it interesting to write from her point of view, which doesn’t have a full understanding about the conversations going on (The Force is there to help a little). I also got to play with determining more Tusken culture from working this story. You can find it here https://archiveofourown.org/works/16640714#kudos

"We're Jedi, we're peacekeepers", Micah Giiett says, before explaining how to cheat in a card game.

"We're Jedi, we're peacekeepers", Sharad Hett says before ordering another Tusken attack.

"We're Jedi, we're peacekeepers", Galen Marek says, before starkilling all over the place.

"We're Jedi, we're peacekeepers", Quinlan Vos says, before engaging on another adventure with Vilmarh Grahrk.

"We're Jedi, we're peacekeepers", Tyvokka says, before flipping a table, starting a fight and dying in it immediately.

If Jedi had TikTok

So I was imagining a TikTok trend that would basically just be the Jedi/Padawans looking all presentable and perfectly Jedi perfect ™ saying “We’re Jedi, we’re peacekeepers” and then immediately cutting to whatever chaos they are currently engaged in, for example:

• “We’re Jedi, we’re peacekeepers” Qui Gon says, immediately before being shown adopting another ‘pathetic life form’ that may will cause them trouble later

• “We’re Jedi, we’re peacekeepers” Obi Wan says, before decapitating a battle droid behind him without even looking at it

• “We’re Jedi, we’re peacekeepers” Anakin says, as he replaces all of Windu’s regular caff with decaf

• “We’re Jedi, we’re peacekeepers” Ashoka says, as she helps Fives and Hardcase balance a bucket of glitter above Rex’s doorway

• “We’re Jedi, we’re peacekeepers” Plo says, as he forces encourages C3-PO to tell Wolffe his latest tales of woe™ and R2 drama

• “Jedi, we are; keepers of the peace, our responsibility is.” Yoda says, before telling several younglings that if they keep copying the Temple Guards they’ll freeze and get stuck that way

• “We’re Jedi, we’re peacekeepers” Quinlan says, then just… you know, exists how he does

• “We’re Jedi, we’re peacekeepers” Obi Wan says, before arguing politely engaging with every political figure in the room just for the heck of it

• “We’re Jedi, we’re peacekeepers” Leia says, before teasing the man breaking her out of a literal cell in the middle of space about his height

• “We’re Jedi, we’re peacekeepers” Luke says, before replacing Han’s hair gel with glue

• “We’re Jedi, we’re peacekeepers” Kanan says, calmly to the camera, before proceeding to promptly turn around and scream “SHUT THE KRIFF UP I SWEAR TO FORCE I WILL MURDER YOU ALL IF YOU DONT GO TO SLEEP RIGHT NOW”

• “We’re Jedi, we’re peacekeepers” Ezra says, as he sprints away from Zeb who is quite suddenly and mysteriously COVERED in hair dye (thanks, Sabine!)

But right now, he's mostly annoyed about how this whole Naboo mission has gone so horrifically wrong.

“Well, no more oranges for me. Oranges are for little boys. With daddies.”

-A'Sharad Hett after the death of his father Sharad

submitted by @auditect

[marvelstars]

Anakin meet Master Hett´s at the temple when he was a padawan, he was excited to meet another Jedi from Tatooine. He told Hett about his prodracing and he told Anakin about his tribe and their culture. Anakin was happy to learn that because it helped to remember home but got sad when he remembered Shmi.

At the beggining of the clone wars Anakin was asigned to work with Hett, at the time Obi-Wan was presumed dead, Anakin conffesed to him what he did on Tatootine to the Tusken Raiders tribe that killed his mother because A´sharad belonged to one of the tribes from Tatooine, he was the only other person he told the truth apart from Padme and Palpatine, Hett told him he had to carry the guilt on his conscience but to be wary of the darkside or else his secret was going to consume him (Comic Legends).

I believe Anakin told Master Hett about his mother dying at the hands of tusken raiders and his murdering the people at their camp because if Anakin was honest with himself neither the Jedi or the Republic understood or cared much about Tatooine so the closest person that had the perspective to judge him adecuately was Hett because he actually belonged to the group affected and there was no way he would have taken this to the Hutts as if they would care for a former slave murder or for the turken raiders. Anakin liked and respected Master Hett´s perspective and experience on Tatooine.

[forcechoosen]

Cleg Larrs tells Anakin how proud he was of him for bringing Shmji back home and killing those savages. It would be a brief moment because Anakin feels no emotion, at least no good emotion, about the Larrs, but a father figure and praise from one is something he always wanted, so it was a brief satisfaction.

Then, years later, when the fallen and weak Reva forces the Sand People to attack the homesteads in search for Skywalker, Owen sends away Luke and Beru and holds off the hoard, using his father's crutch to fight a big chieftain boss before bashing its brains in and even tried using it against Reva, but she disarms him. But remembering what Skywalker did to save the farmers, the farmers swarmed the homestead, with Bail undercover as a smuggler shooting from the ship, turning it into a turkey shoot, slaying countless sand people. Beru is manning a canon, and because of an immediate shift from Bail, her shot was off, so instead of killing Reva, she struck the ground between her and Owen; Reva was thrown back, and Owen was left to hide her lightsaber before anyone can see it.

Then, when she awakens later, she is battered and broken and is about to be sacrificed to the Sarlac by that lady she removed her hand from, but the lady and her family are killed by other sand people, one with a lightsaber. Sharad Hett. He has questions and uses for her.

Obi-Wan returns and makes peace with Owen, agreeing to protect the boy together. Then, Obi-Wan takes Reva's lightsaber.

And that is how Kenobi ended.

SHARAD AND A'SHARAD HETT LORE IN KENOBI

[johaycc]

Hey! I was wondering if in your tusken fic if any tusken would be a force user or have any jedi stories? I think there was one tusken jedi (if i remember right could be wrong!!) and your story has a really cool idea about tusken story telling traditions and memory so was just wondering how/if that might show up, if that makes sense/you dont mind talking about it? Hope you are doing well x

Ooooh I love this ask. Yes that’s Sharad Hett and A’Sharad Hett! Okay so a while ago I was trying to insert some of this in the fic – like you said, with the storytelling culture of the Tuskens it’d make sense for there to be stories of this jedi.

I can't remember what the issue was, but I ended up not using it cause of like timeline issues or something? Idk it was a while ago but I couldn't make it work for some reason. Or maybe I just didn't like the way it treated Tuskens or something. I've definitely purposefully ignored canon a bunch of times when it was shitty. Also I haven't read those comics yet, so I'd worry about misrepresenting the character(s). All this to say, theyre fucking cool, and if I could find a way that felt right to include a mention fo them, I totally would! Open to suggestions for sure. 

Or I might make up some new Tusken force user-- I feel like that is for sure still a possibility, especially since Grogu’s now in the mix. Someone’s gotta be like “oh, floating rocks? My uncle does that too!”

[blackkatmagic]

I just saw the post you reblogged on Anakin being rascist and I was wondering if you could give me your opinion on something about it? Not the rascism part - that's clear as day. But I haven't been able to get my hands on the comic and have only ever seen snippets of it before. What I've never seen is the panel where Ki-Adi-Mundi tells Anakin that "you've done something I never could" in regards to A'Sharad taking off his headwrap. And tbh? It shocked me, still does. Because we know what the headgear means to the tuskens and combined with the explanation A'Sharad gives Ki-Adi-Mundi for not wearing it anymore, it just seems like a weird reaction? But I don't know if there is some context I'm missing bc I can't find the comic to read. I'm deeply interested in your thoughts on this, but I understand if you would rather not get into it.

There's some context that ties back to A'Sharad's first appearance in Star Wars #10 (1999), which is mainly a story about Sharad Hett and Ki-Adi-Mundi. Basically, Eeth Koth asks Ki-Adi-Mundi to find out if Sharad is alive or dead, and in the background Aurra is hunting Sharad. Ki-Adi-Mundi arrives on Tatooine and is absolutely shocked to find that Sharad has become a Tusken war leader, married a Tusken woman, and had a son.

There is a lot about Mundi just...believing the Tuskens are primitive and uncultured and evil, ignoring what Sharad tells him about their traditions, and getting into trouble for it that A'Sharad usually has to help him out of. It's all really uncomfortable, and it gets more uncomfortable when Aurra kills Sharad and Mundi takes A'Sharad back to the Temple with him to finish training.

And then, for even more uncomfortable fun, the next run starts with Dark Woman pressing A'Sharad about whether he's a Jedi or a Tusken, including calling him an ignorant savage when he scores a hit on her in training and making mocking comments about his ability to learn Basic. There's a fairly strong focus on making A'Sharad pick whether he's Jedi or Tusken, which is what I assume Mundi is referring to in the Republic #59 panels, though I couldn't guarantee it. The consensus of the comics seems to be that A'Sharad not choosing one or the other is going to lead to disaster, is the symptom of a divided heart, is the wrong choice, etc. It's a little gross in multiple ways, tbh.

[marvelstars]

I believe the problem comes when AotC is talked without context, some fans talk about this as if Anakin went to kill the tusken raiders for shit and giggles when instead he dreamed for a month and saw them torture his mother and in the novel, they used her blood for a ritual, before he found her and even so, he only meant to get her away from the camp safely, this was after he saw them torture her and being told the farmers who went to rescue her were killed trying to save her.

Anakin´s intention still was to get to the camp without attacking anybody, when she died and there was no more that could be done, he decided to attack their entire tribe in revenge, so this was a crime of passion, which he promtly regreeted and confesed to Padmé, to Palpatine and in legends to another Jedi Tusken Raider called Sharad Hett. Hence why while his actions were reprobable there were extenuating circumstances behind them, not something he did in a normal day to pass the time.

Killing the tuken raiders was wrong but so was kidnapping and torturing a woman for a month and in either case, there was no justice to be had, because no one in the Republic cares about what happens in Tatooine, they don´t have a working goverment unless we are expecting Jabba´s court to be one.

It´s also the reason why it´s false to say Anakin was prejuiced or hated Tusken Raiders before this happened, in fact as a kid he was happy to help a tusken raider he found dying in the middle of the desert when he broke his leg and as a young padawan he was happy to talk with Sharad Hett about Tatooine´s culture on the Jedi temple.

I do think Anakin´s firt steps on the darkside started here, when his righteous rage at his mother killers lead to him to take these actions but I also believe that if bassically anybody had worried about helping Shmi and reuniting mother and Son or if Anakin simply decided to tell Obi-Wan he´s going to see if his mother is alright, a month before instead of waiting, believing Obi-Wan when he said that dreams pass in time, this would not have happened

This is why I believe being a Jedi made Anakin emotionally unstable and vulnerable to the darkside, because if he was bassically anything else, he would have keep contact with Shmi and would have come to help her if he didn´t live with her already. This was a matter of common sense and familiar care not attachment.

me and my eternally controversial opinion that baby killing can be called evil in casual conversation haha

Tusken Raider Jedi A’Sharad Hett

[oh-no-eu-didnt]

Sharad Hett was a human and former Jedi Knight. Hett left the Order as he became disillusioned with the Jedi’s lack of humility. After a tragedy prevented him from reconnecting with his family, Hett exiled himself to Tatooine. He became involved with the local Tuskens, eventually becoming accepted into their culture, leading them in battle against the Hutts. Hett was trained by Eeth Koth, and wielded a crimson blade.
