#Exar Kun

[ipreferfiction]

"average jedi enclave has approximately two fallen padawans per generation" factoid actually just statistical error. the dantooine enclave, which has a fall rate of every decently strong padawan they've ever trained, is an outlier adn should not be considered

I just felt that the trial entrance needed more swagger.

Drawtober time!!

Swtortober day 1: Training

Redraw of a panel from the tales of the jedi comics because I'm obsessed with exar kun.

Og image under the cut.

As every year I'm gonna be super motivated but in the end probably manage at most 5 pieces because I have no chill and put at least 10 hours of work into everything I touch but who cares. Not me, I'm used to my antics.

Anyway I widened the scope into the old Republic area in general for me because I actually never played swtor and only have like 1.75 ocs in there.

This might take a while

Realizing I have to sacrifice showing his scars for the sake of accuracy 😔

i've been enabled. you get Revan/Exar Kun parallels on this fine evening. more under the cut

the thing. the thing about them. the thing is that it's never enough. Exar is as powerful a fighter as the Jedi have, and clever, and so strong with the Force, but Dantooine is tiny and his master won't let him study the Dark and he's hungry for it, so hungry. he wants to know everything, he's ready, he knows he's ready, and damn what Vodo says about it -

and Revan. Revan who spends her childhood on Dantooine and hears the Emperor's voice at twelve and is never trusted, never enough, not for the masters (not for Vrook, who remembers the last war, who remembers the black-haired apprentice with his blue lightsaber and watches the black-haired padawan with her blue blades now). Revan who wants to study the Dark because she has to, because it's the only way to fight it, because she needs to know, because she knows she's ready and she knows she's good enough and she has always known herself better than any master did.

thirty years between them. and it's half their choice and half a master plan, getting them to fall. Freedon Nadd breaks half the bones in Exar's body. Vitiate doesn't even have to do that much, to push Revan into war, to make her seek him out in the end. they both deny it. they both surrender.

thirty years between them. was Exar's blood still dried on that tomb floor when Revan came to Korriban? did she know, when she went hunting for knowledge in those tombs, that she wasn't the first?

and they're good. they're so very good at galactic conquest. they're so very good at being dark lords of the Sith, at being the nightmares they once swore they'd never fall to. they're clever, they're terrifying - as charismatic as they are vicious, as creative as they are cruel. how many Jedi walk away to join Exar? how many Revanchists go to war, and how many Jedi turn to the darkness when Darth Revan reappears?

and they have so much power. so much it's terrifying. Exar walks into the Senate chamber and freezes every one of them in their seats without breaking a sweat. he works alchemy on a level only matched by Sith lords with decades more experience. he was born to power, the lightning at the center of the storm. and Revan, Revan who can kill with a wave of her hand, Revan who claws her way back from death so many times, Revan who bends the Star Forge and the Foundry and Yavin to her will - Revan, who faces Vitiate and survives - more power in her as a youngling than most Jedi have by knighthood, and she takes to it so very easily.

they are planet-killers, Revan and Exar Kun, and they gave the orders knowing the cost and deeming it worthy. Revan watches Malachor V and half her army die, and it wins her the war. Exar makes a star cluster go supernova, turns Ossus barren, destroys Urkupp. it's not even to win the war - it's for Ossus, for all the knowledge there. what is a planet, against a galaxy?

anyway. yeah. parallels.
