Stella, Stefan, Stephanie, and Stewart Harrington, Children of Steve Harrington;

Trigger Warnings: Mentions of Character Death, bribery, child endangerment, attempted kidnapping, bribes, playing with fire, Homophobia, cancer, etc.

You have been warned.

Tell me if you think I should add a specific one to the trigger warnings list.

Stephanie Harrington:

Her full name is Stephanie Robin Harrington.

She is the 'oldest' of the quads by five minutes.

She is the bio daughter of Steve Harrington (who is deceased in this au) and his ex, Becky (who wanted nothing to do with the kids), and the adoptive daughter/ward of Tommy and Carol.

She has a puppy from Tommy and Carol’s dog (Mercury) who she named ‘Djo’ after finding the name scribbled on some of her dad’s old things.

She wears teashades—round/circular sunglasses old school musicians used to wear—as well as a whistle necklace at almost all times.

She is a big fan of heavy metal music and is Eddie’s favorite of the quads (even though he will NEVER admit it).

She plays basketball like her dad did in highschool but has luckily not inherited some of his (or Tommy and Carol’s) worse habits from those years.

Eddie is her favorite uncle (besides Tommy, which Eddie says doesn’t count because he raised her and therefore has an unfair advantage).

Eddie started teaching her how to play guitar when she was three (he actually tried to teach her as a baby but Carol threatened to ban him from watching her unsupervised again if he tried again before she was three when she caught him doing so due to fear of it hurting the baby).

Oh and once when Stephanie was eight she convinced Eddie—who was babysitting her—to dye his and her hair (he actually did get banned from watching her unsupervised for awhile after that one).

Stephanie still dyes her hair to this day.

She also has a nasty habit of playing with fire and fireworks because they fascinate her—one no body has successfully been able to break her of.

Her favorite color is yellow and her favorite food is honey combs cereal.

She carries around the lighter that used to belong to her dad (That Robin gave her when she was 13) along with a picture of him at basketball practice someone took a couple years before his death because she finds it comforting having them.

She rides her bike around when she’s not able to get a ride from anyone else.

She is seventeen and still trying to get her license—with Eddie teaching her, of course.

She uses her dad’s lighter as a weapon.

She’s not very good at fighting but she’s also very stubborn and very willing to fight anyone who messes with her siblings, her friends, and her ‘cousins’. Oh and anyone who mistreats her pets.

She gets in a decent amount of trouble at school but maintains that she’s never fought/pranked anyone and disrespected a teacher who didn’t deserve it.

Out of her siblings and friends, Stephanie has showed up the least in Adrien Byers-Wheeler’s videos on his youtube channel “PhantomPursuits.” Not because she thinks she’s above it or anything. She’s just usually occupied with other things. Like trying to get people to join her and Reed’s band ‘The Ever Burnings.’

Her favorite band is Iron Maiden.

Her favorite song is “Wrathchild’.

Her best friend is her brother, Stewart.

She is lactose intolerant but chooses to ignore that fact because she loves dairy products much too much to stop eating/drinking them.

Out of her siblings—besides her sister—she has gotten the most injuries due both her clumsiness and impulsiveness. Oh and the fights she has gotten in.

Stepahnie has spent many summers in a cast of some kind.

She is a romantic just like her dad.

She is coincidentally enough, a lesbain, like her aunt Robin who she is partially named after.

She doesn’t have her eye on anyone yet, however (something Tommy is relieved about because he DOES not want to see if she has her father’s taste in women or not yet).

She likes the hippy style of clothing and wears it which always manages to throw some people off when they hear what type of music she listens to/plays.

Oh and she is a bit of a conspiracy theorist due to the events leading up to her father’s death.

She has met her bio grandparents exactly once when they bribed someone in the office at her elementary school to let them see her. She left the room (and school) immediately and walked to Eddie’s house. Needless to say, the school got the tongue lashing of the lifetime from the adult members of the upside down crew as well as Tommy and Carol, and some of the upside down crew’s parents and guardians and there was a lawsuit and everything. (Stephanie got a high five from Eddie for leaving the school when they pulled that stunt). Tommy nearly punched Mr Harrington (again).

Stephanie wishes she felt more connected to her dad and feels bad that she doesn’t.

She has told no one she feels like this, though. She’s also forever grateful that her dad saved Eddie because Eddie has always had her back (though she also feels a bit guilty for feeling that way since he died saving him).

She goes to her dad’s grave sometimes just to talk to him and will often also play some music and leave flowers.

Whenever something goes wrong, she will jokingly blame it on the government.

She’s scared of disappointing those she loves as well as losing them. Oh and bees, since she’s allergic to them.

She is also quite close to Lucas, who taught her (along with Tommy) how to play basketball.

Stephanie is also not a big fan of comic books but loves horror novels.

Oh and she's known about the upside down since she was nine after accidentally overhearing a hushed argument between Tommy and Carol about it. How they know about it she doesn't know but what she does know is that they don't know she and her siblings know.

She also stopped Ophelia from confronting them on the matter a month afterwards when the girl found out from snooping.

She'd love to be a famous musician/basketball player when she gets older.

Stella Harrington:

Her full name is Stella Chrissy Harrington.

She is the second youngest of the quads.

She and her siblings are currently seventeen.

She is the bio daughter of Steve Harrington (who is deceased in this au) and his ex, Becky (who wanted nothing to do with the kids), and the adoptive daughter/ward of Tommy and Carol.

Stella loves her uncle Tommy and aunt Carol, and her dad but… she just doesn’t feel connected to her dad that much and gets frustrated how much of their lives are dictated by what happened to her dad/how he would have wanted to raise them. And because of that, she kinda resents him but feels bad at the same time about it.

She also has never really been curious about her mom the way her siblings have and kinda gets annoyed with them for asking so many questions about it.

Her favorite color is denim blue.

She is into the punk scene a lot and puts up with no one's shit.

She has gotten into a lot of fights over the years over people messing with her siblings and friends but also over some dumb things as well.

She's the closest to Dustin, Max, and Erica out of the upside down crew.

Max started teaching her how to Skateboard when she was six and Stella has loved it ever since. It is her primary mode of solo transportation.

She can drive but doesn't really see the point in when you live in a small town like Hawkins.

She is apart of the lacrosse team (fought like hell to get on it) and has nearly been kicked off it several times for bad behavior. Now she's just gotten better at hiding bad behavior.

She loves dnd and playing video games.

Reed Buckley is her best friend but she's also close to her brother Stewart as well.

She's ridiculously good at sneaking into places and leaving the most random things behind (like tiny plastic babies).

Stella is also ridiculously good at graffiti and at not getting caught at doing the graffiti.

She has an axe made from a stop sign that Reed and her made together when they found out about the Upside down.

She is a quite friendly person to those she likes.

She is also very good with little kids.

Her favorite food is any flavor of Pringles.

She wears a lot of denim products.

One time her adoptive cousin, Marshall, made her denim socks as a joke and she wore them non stop to spite him for the gag gift. He was horrified.

Eddie thought it was hilarious.

Her favorite musical artist is Pink.

Her favorite songs from her are 'Family Portrait' and 'You Make Me Sick'.

She has broken every rule she found stupid in her school books. Yes, she got lots of detentions and groundings for it (except on the few occasions where Tommy and Carol agreed the rules were stupid).

She is planning to get a pet snake or rat or something else she finds cool when she moves out.

Stella is asexual and aromantic.

She likes fantasy books.

Her favorite video game is Escape from Monkey Island.

Outside of Ophelia and Stephanie, Stella was the hardest of her siblings and cousins to raise.

Her favorite movie is Frequency.

Her favorite book is The Chronicles of Narnia. She used to make anyone and everyone read it to her.

She met her grandparents exactly once while at the playground with Zane and Dustin when she was four. Mr Harrington ended up with a broken nose after attempting to pick her up (this was exactly two days after she was given the 'stranger danger talk'). Her grandparents haven't tried to contact her (or her cousin, Zane, who tripped Mrs. Harrington when she chased after Stella) since.

Stella and Zane got a lot of snacks afterwards.

Stella is scarily good at fighting people.

She told Reed about the Upside Down and has no qualms admitting to it.

She wants to be a doctor when she grows up.

Oh and she hates lasagna and broccoli with a passion.

She had a lot of energy as a kid and Dustin and Max usually 'had' (note: did so with a lot of insistence) to take her off of Tommy and Carol's hands once a week so they could get a break.

She was very much the kid to accidentally break something and blame the dog. Even if the person whose house she was at did not have a dog.

Hopper has had to pick her up/take her to the station a couple of times. It was not a comfortable experience for either of them.

She has ADHD.

She has shown up a lot in a lot of "PhantomPursuits" videos because she likes talking about conspiracies (and also trash talking the government).

She also just likes trolling people who are assholes for no reason.

Stella is the Harrington kid who is the most likely to help someone hide a body.

She ended up spending a lot of summers in a cast and having to get a lot of shots because of how adventurous (read: reckless) she could be.

Also she can't draw but she's really good at painting figurines.

The moment she could read, she started taking an interest in dnd and sat in on campaigns when she was able to.

Dustin once brought her to a campaign when he was babysitting her as a baby and she somehow didn't end up making a peep all night. Eddie described it as creepy (Tommy properly threw a rag at him for the comment).

Oh and she has a photo of her dad and his two cousins (Chrissy and Fred) before they died somewhere in her room.

Stefan Harrington:

His full name is Stefan Dustin Harrington.

He is the second oldest of the Harrington quads.

He is 17 years old.

He uses a javelin as a weapon and wants to be a teacher.

He has a cat he named ‘Beethoven’.

He is on the swim team.

Stefan wants to explore the world.

He has a chalkboard in his room.

His favorite color is green.

He’s the closest to Robin out of his siblings but he’s also pretty close to Mike and Dustin.

Stefan likes jazz music as well as classical music but also enjoys some pop songs.

He loves the show ‘Horrible Histories’ and is a bit of a conspiracist.

He is the bio son of Steve Harrington and his ex, Becky. Ward/adoptive son of Tommy and Carol.

His favorite song is 'Waiting on the world to change' by John Mayer.

His favorite video game is ‘What Remains of Edith Finch’.

He has tons of VHS tapes, CDs, an MVP Player, and DVDs as well as tons of books, magazines, and maps (including a globe) in his room.

He carries around a photo of his dad leaning against a locker and a photo of his dad, uncle Tommy, and aunt Carol in the school cafeteria around in his wallet because it helps him feel more connected to him.

He knows tons of languages including the language of the flowers and sign language.

Stefan has met his dad’s parents exactly once when he was 10—he immediately froze up and they were immediately jumped by his cousin, Opheila, and his good friend, Reed. They never contacted him again.

He has the neatest handwriting and the best notes out of all his friends and siblings.

He usually rides his bike to get around.

He is a big fan of old media.

His extended family likes to joke that he is an old soul and that this is only one of many lives.

Coincidentally, he’s also big into reading about reincarnation and spooky stuff—which is why he helped Adrien, Nova, and Opheila create their show ‘PhantomPursuits’.

Also he was the first person besides Nova to find out that Adrien and Ophelia were an item. How did he discover that, you ask? Through the simple power of context clues and observation, of course!

He was sworn to secrecy but that didn’t matter because the rest of the group eventually found out anyway.

He doesn’t have many friends outside of the group and he’s okay with that.

He is straight and has a crush on a girl who is on the debate team with him (she's the daughter of one of Corrid Coffin's members).

Stefan ALSO loves ice cream and is the reason Robin was eventually able to eat ice cream again (something she couldn’t bear to do after Steve died).

Nancy and Jonathan used to help him with his homework when he was younger and struggled more on focusing (due to his learning disabilities).

After finding out about the upside down, he went out of his way to find out more about it and eventually found some of Will and El’s drawings of the upside down and the monsters in it (and had nightmares about it for months afterwards).

His nightmares were not helped by the show ‘Are You Afraid of the Dark?’ which he watched religiously as a kid and to this day.

He loves cartoon, movie, book, and game theories.

He can be described as ‘paranoid’.

He lost the photo of his dad once and was convinced that the government stole it and was hysterical about it. It appeared on his bed a week later.

He wishes that he could have met his dad but also feels guilty for feeling that way because Tommy and Carol treated him well and raised him well, and he feels like he’s betraying them in a way for wishing it.

He is close to his siblings and often fears losing them.

Stefan is also secretly scared of water, blood, and the dark (due to the upside down shit he found out about it when snooping) but has not told anyone due to fear of being made fun of.

He wants to get a tattoo of a skull when he’s legally able to.

If he can’t become a teacher, he wants to be an archaeologist or both, if he can.

He is a gifted child.

Oh and he likely would have been bullied more by his peers if it weren't for the fact he is friends with and related to some very terrifying people.

Stewart Harrington:

His full name is Stewart Frederick Harrington.

He is the youngest of the quads.

He takes after Will and El the most (and occasionally Jonathan).

He is the quad who feels the most connected to his dad and he still wishes to this day he could have met his dad.

He’s seventeen years old.

He is a sickly kid and has cancer.

Stewart is bisexual and has a crush on Samantha Stone’s adoptive son, Bae Stone—even though his friends and siblings take the mickey out of him for liking the kid who pretends/thinks he’s a vampire.

His favorite food is eggos.

He is a red head like his mom and wants to know about her more than any of his other siblings do. Which has caused some issues between him and his siblings.

His favorite color is red.

Stewart is a big fan of horror media and true crime and the paranormal as well as monsters and cryptids.

He also likes gardening and hedge art.

He is a wonderful artist and an amazing baseball player.

He is also quite good at making costumes and comic books and he plans to open his own shop where he sells the things he makes one day. He would also like to maybe be a professional baseball player if he could.

He draws on his sneakers.

Stewart fights with a baseball bat like his dad.

He is a quiet kid.

He has appeared in several of the “PhantomPursuits” videos.

Stewart used to walk around wearing a cape as a little kid. He didn’t stop for a long time.

He can come off as moody at times and can be very sarcastic.

He’s not exactly book smart but he is street smart and gets good enough grades.

Stewart’s taste in music is mainly ‘it has words, isn’t too sexual, and speaks to me’.

He has 774 songs in his playlist.

His favorite song is 'Weird Kid' by Rosendale.

He gets a tumblr as soon as it is invented.

He was definitely in superhero and horror chatrooms a lot and he was definitely that kid spreading urban legends around.

Oh and he was ‘that kid’ who tried to smuggle lizards, worms, frogs, toads, and other small animals into his house. Including a baby crocodile once. No. No one knows WHERE he got a baby crocodile. No he wasn’t allowed to keep it. No it wasn’t harmed—just released somewhere where it belonged.

He has a slight obsession with pirates.

His favorite book is ‘The Old Willis Place’ by Mary Downing Hahn but ‘Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark’ by Alvin Schwartz is a close second.

His favorite video game is ‘The Haunted Mansion’.

His favorite movie is ‘Thirteen Ghosts’.

His favorite show was ‘Are You Afraid of the Dark?’.

Stewart is also interested in the zombie apocalypse and has come up with several scenarios for it.

He has sensory and attention issues.

He can read 200 plus page books in two days if he likes the story enough.

He dressed up as a vampire several times as a kid for Halloween.

Stewart knows sign language.

He works at the local movie theater with Bae Stone.

Oh and the two of them are theater kids.

He often wonders what his dad would think of him and is often afraid that he’d have been disappointed in him.

He carries a pocket knife on him at all times along with a sketchbook and other art supplies.

He is the one who uses the family car most often outside of his parents and he usually keeps his bat in the trunk.

Stewart has exactly one photo of his dad in his pocket of him on a lawn chair smoking from the day Barb disappeared.

He always feels like the odd one out no matter where he is except with Bae no matter what anyone does but he hasn’t told anyone because he doesn’t want to make them feel bad.

Carol and Tommy are more protective of him than they are of his siblings and Ophelia (they are about equally protective of Marshall as they are of him).

He loves the family dog and the family cat very dearly.

He gets in the least trouble out of his siblings.

But he has ended up with almost as many injuries as his siblings due to some bigots in town.

Oh and he has broken into the zoo before. Not that anyone knows that.

------------------------------------------------------------

Note:

These headcanons take place in my Stranger Things au 'Cats in the Cradle'.

In that au:

Tommy and Carol are left to raise Steve's four infant children with the help of the Upside Down Crew, Steve's half brother, Steve's younger cousin, and their collective families.

Jason and Eddie live.

Max is less seriously injured.

Phil Callahan is Steve's older half brother.

And Chrissy, her brother, and Fred Benson were Steve's cousins.

Oh and Steve hooked up with one of his pre-nancy girlfriends and after his death she found herself pregnant with quads that Steve never got to meet.

Hope that clears up any confusion regarding these ocs and headcanons.

It's Fictional Throwdown Friday!

This Week's Fighters...

Darth Sidious vs Darth Caedus!

Conditions:

Dark Empire Palpatine. Legends material only.

Scenario:

In order to learn as much about the Dark Side of the Force as possible, Darth Caedus uses Flowalking to travel back in time and speak to Darth Sidious at his peak, hoping to learn from the most infamous Sith Lord in the Galaxy. Sensing Caedus's immense power, Palpatine sees Caedus as a rival and refuses to make him his apprentice, deciding to kill the man then and there to keep his power over the galaxy unchallenged.

Analysis: Caedus

If there is one thing that could possibly explain who Jacen Solo became when he grew up, it is war. Born to the legendary heroes of the Republic Han Solo and Leia Organa Solo. He'd spend much of his early years getting abducted by imperial remnants and enemy factions of all stripes as the New Republic struggled to pull itself together. As a thirteen year old, he'd begin his training at Luke Skywalker's new Jedi Praxeum, spending most of his time fighting off Dark Jedi and lingering Sith Remnants. Jacen Solo didn't have the privilege of a peaceful upbringing, but despite that, he found a way to prosper. It was during these young years he'd meet the woman he'd later marry, Princess Tenel Ka Djo. Becoming Luke Skywalker's apprentice at age fifteen, it seemed that Jacen's lofe, despite its rocky start, was shaping up to be a good one.

That all changed when the Yuuzhan Vong attacked.

A proud warrior race that used bio-organic technology and existed outside of the Force, the Vong invaded the galaxy brutally, attacking without mercy. Due to existing outside of the Force, the Vong were immune to any attack a Jedi might throw at them, allowing their conquest to render planets desolate and cost trillions of lives.

Jacen lost his younger brother Anakin on the front lines and was captured not long after. He spent a year in captivity, tortured in ways unimaginable for over a year. They called it the Embrace of Pain, a device that specifically read the synapses of its target to trigger their pain receptors in whatever way the target finds most unbearable. Most sentient life dies from shock within seconds of exposure. Jacen held out for months.

Ultimately, Jacen would save the galaxy from the Vong threat. He would fuse with the entirety of the Force, become one with it to become a living god, and use that power to destroy the puppet master behind the war once and for all. Like his parents before him, Jacen Solo would save the galaxy.

Despite his victory, despite being the shinning becon of hope for the galaxy, Jacen would be troubled the events of his childhood for the rest of his. He was going to be a father. He had a family now and a duty to protect the entire galaxy. Could he allow his daughter to grow up in a galaxy has fractured and war torn as he had? Leave her at risk to the criminals and fascists he had to fight as a teenager? Could he risk the galaxy being invaded again from nowhere so that his family could experience the same loss and pain that he had. No.

Jacen Solo had spent his developing years being kidnapped, tortured, and made to fight in wars. He had lost his closest friends and family to violence. He had lost his mind to torture. He would not allow that same fate to befall his children. His family. His galaxy. Not again.

He would unite the galaxy in an empire of love. Create a world where every sapient being would love each other so deeply as to be considered family to each other, never to be torn apart again and united against any outside threat. A time of peace under his careful eyes.

His family wouldn't see it his way, of course, so Jacen would need outside help. He'd go to the Dark Lady Lumiya to learn the ways of the Sith. And to prove to himself he would let nothing get in his way, he murdered his Aunt Mara Jade Skywalker and named himself Darth Caedus.

Driven by paranoia and trauma, Caedus ensured he'd be prepared for every situation before beginning his invasion. Beyond the standard Sith Saber, with slightly higher cutting power due to its synthetic crystals, Caedus carries poison dart launchers on his gloves, turning his victim's immune system against them to kill them in seconds, a vibro blade shiv, and a blaster pistol hidden beneath his armor. Caedus spent five years traveling the outskirts of the galaxy to learn even the most obscure pieces of force lore that he could. From such sources, Cadeus mastered practices that most would consider to be... unnatural.

Caedus had the standard range of lightning, telekinesis, and tekepathy, allowing him to dominate minds and communicate from across the galaxy. Caedus is capable of casting powerful illusions, receiving visions of the future mid combat as far as thousands of years in advance (only worsening his paranoia), and create fire from nothing by telekinetically moving air molecules. He's liable to throw star ships around from space mid combat or crush your organs directly as needed, down to causing permanent brain damage by rupturing an artery in the brain.

Slightly more esoteric abilities include erasing people's memories or forcing them to relieve them mid combat, making his aura so small he becomes nearly invisible, creating blinding flashes of light, paralyzing people by electrocuting their nerves, absorbing energy attacks on the level of starship canons, and the Shatterpoint ability. Shatterpoint allows him to see the fault lines in an enemy or object, allowing him strike where a target is most vulnerable, from shattering metals with light taps to kill people in one shot.

Caedus has even mastered powers that no one else has ever used before. With Sever Force, can surround a target in so much Dark Side energy that they're cut off from the force completely, effectively depowering them, potentially permanently if he keeps it up for a long time. He can understand any language he hears automatically, track people through the force by spraying them with his blood, teleport at will, can make himself radioactive to fool lie detectors(?), and can predict the weather(??). But, most impressively of all are his time travel abilities.

By entering a deep meditative state known as flow walking, Darth Caedus can travel back in time and manipulate the past to a minor degree. He wanted to watch Peepaw Vader dice up the younglings during Order 66. Yeah.

In a dual, Caedus is unmatched by all but the mightiest. He defeated Mara Jade by distracting her with a vision of her son before poisoning her, defeated Battlemaster Kyle "I beat dragons to death with my fists" Katarn alongside several other Jedi at once, and gave a very good fight against Grandmaster Luke himself. Even getting choped up by his sister Jaina Solo didn't slow him down much as he just got himself a prosthetic knee and... never actually did anything about his missing hand because he didn't want to be out of commission during a war. So he's just missing a hand now.

Darth Caedus is one of the strongest Sith Lords who ever lived. The fandom may shout heresy for saying it, but... he's possibly even stronger than Palpatine himself.

Palpatine at his strongest was powerful enough to create force storms that could potentially wipe out the universe and did severe damage to the fifth dimensional space known as Hyperspace, where starships travel to beat lightspeed.

Luke Skywalker back then was just a bit weaker than Palpatine and needed a boost from Leia to fully overpower him. Now, decades later, and Caedus himself is juuuuuuuust weaker than Luke after he'd gotten stronger than back then several times over. ...Yeah, I think that's a fair assessment to say Caedus beats Palpatine.

What's more, is that Luke by this point can access the Realm Beyond Shadows, a sixth dimensional space that transcends all of time, including in Hyperspace. In effect, Luke can fight six dimensional beings and move in a place where time does not exist and Caedus is only just weaker than him.

Despite being basically a force god, Caedus is at heart still a traumatized soldier acting out of irrational paranoia. He's been known to get quick to frustrate and violent when things go wrong, his actions have alienated himself from everyone he ever loved, and he can no longer become a physical god by becoming one with the Force.

In the end, Caedus would lose his life in a climactic final dual with Jaina. He had the opportunity to force a stalemate, cut Jaina down as he fell... but his family would die if he did not intervene. Using the last of his strength, Jacen Solo saved his wife and daughter as his sister cut him down.

No matter who he might've become later in life... Jacen Solo had once saved the galaxy.

Analysis: Sidious

Of all the Dark Lords of the Sith who would come to terrorize the galaxy over the centuries, there is one and only one who could be said to have been born pure evil. He was not a man. Not a monster. But the Dark Side twisted into a barely human form. To the Sith, he is remembered as Palpatine the Great, the last of the Rule of Two who conquered the galaxy and destroyed the Jedi as no one before him ever had. To the Jedi, he is Darth Sidious, a genocidal monster behind the greatest tragedies and wars in galactic history. And to the Galaxy at large, he is just Emperor Palpatine, ruler of the First Galactic Empire.

Palpatine (not Sheev, that's Disney exclusive) always felt that the Naboo royal lineage he'd been born into was beneath him. Even as his family spoiled him rotten, he always felt he was destined for more. So, when Darth Plagueis the Wise, awed by his limitless potential in the Force, offered him secrets of the Dark Side, Palpatine did not hesitate. He murdered his family as a teenager and took the name Darth Sidious.

Sidious would manipulate his way to the top of galactic politics to become the Supreme Chancellor of the Republic, before murdering Plagueis in his sleep. Then, under the guise of innocent, kindly Palpatine, he would instigate the Clone Wars, one of the bloodiest conflicts in history, to transition the Republic into a paranoid, fascist police state. Grooming the young Anakin Skywalker into the horrific enforcer Darth Vader, Palpatine would dispose of all his former allies when he took the throne, before purging the Jedi to grasp the galaxy in his iron grip.

Palpatine would reign unchallenged for decades, destroying planets with superweapons, instigating slavery and genocides, creating whole new forms of Dark Force magic, and crushing all resistance to maintain his iron grip on the galaxy. It was not until Anakin's son, Luke, reminded him of the man he was and turned him against his master that his mad reign would finally end. Palpatine would be cast into the reactor of his own Death Star, vaporized and obliterated. And at last, the Galaxy would know peace....

But, even after all that.... somehow, Palpatine returned.

Paranoid and meticulous, Palpatine planned ahead. He transferred his soul to a cloning station he'd prepared, letting the rebellion fight with the remnants of his empire as he rebuilt his armies and bolstered his strength, Palpatine would re-emerge to slaughter them all for failing and defying him. He would return not as a man, but as the embodies of the Dark Side itself. A being of the dark, twisted soul unconstrained by death or mortal morality.

Darth Sidious was a nearly unparalleled master of lightsaber combat, viewing it as little more than a way to mock the Jedi. Having mastered all seven forms, Palpatine would fight against some the greatest Jedi who ever lived, including Grandmaster Yoda, Mace Windu, Darth Maul, Galen Marek, and Luke Skywalker.

Despite their tenacity, the Jedi could not match Palpatine's sheer raw power in the Force. Galen Marek, who was powerful enough to pull starships out of the sky, Yoda, who could annihilate entire armies, and Luke, who had become an equal to his father Darth Vader by the time of Dark Empire. None of them alone could match his raw power on their own.

With Luke, Palpatine would spend months chipping away at his mind, driving him slowly mad to break him into his perfect apprentice, sucking out all his will the first time the young man challenged him. Palpatine could hide his darkness in the Force for years from all the Jedi in the Galaxy, flooding the Galaxy with his darkness so none could sense anything. Palpatine could slow down the Jedi Mace brought with him with a confusion haze, drive people mad with a thought, trap people in entire worlds made of illusions, bolster the willpower of his armies to effectively turn them into a hive mind, and even turn people into mindless drones with just a recording of his voice.

Palpatine spent so much of his time studying the Dark Side, he perfected every single power the Dark Side could provide at the time and could even invent brand new ones in a whim. He can vaporize you with lightning, suck the life our of you with Force Drain, crush you to death with telekinesis, fly, absorb energy, and will things to explode. He taunt Dooku how to create an army of zombies, can duplicate himself with hard loght copies, can shoot fire from his hands or freeze you solid, and can create fields of death that instantly kill any life form in their radius. Period. Alongside many.... many others...

Palpatine's being is nothing but a soul now. He doesn't need a physical body to survive. Whenever his current clone body dies or is defeated, he just transfers his soul to the next body or even to your body. He can take over your body and replace your personality, destroying your soul with his if you destroy his body through the power of Essence Transfer. Functionally, he is immortal so long as he has a body on hand.

But his most devastating ability of them all was dreaded Force Storm. This higher dimensional vortex in the fabric of space and time tears apart reality itself, wiping the life off planets and even punching holes in time. He used a Force Storm to teleport Luke across the galaxy and other Jedi such as Revan have tanked naturally occuring Force Storms only to end up getting teleported thousands of years across time. It is a literally apocalyptic power that could destroy the universe, higher dimensions and all, if Palpatine ever losses control of it.

So is this Dark Emperor the invincible god he says he is? ....No.

Firstly, Sidious strongly favors his force abilites. He thinks lightsaber combat is archaic, useful only to mock the Jedi. So, every single major victory against someone his own level came by way of his Force powers, with Mace and Yoda even disarming him outright before Sidious wised up. It says a lot that Palps doesn't even use his own lightsaber anymore. His old one was vaporized with the rest of him after his death, so now he uses a stolen blue Jedi one from a Jedi he killed personally. Probably one of the ones accompanying Mace. The only opponent Palpatine did beat with the blade is Maul who.... frankly, isn't even in the same galaxy as Sidious in any timeline....

Secondly, his own raw power is a detriment to his clone bodies. The more he exerts himself, the faster they rot under the weight of his might. Given that his clones range in age from fifteen to eighty, each body rots at different rates. After Leia freed Luke from Palp's control and gave him the strength boost he needed to overpower the Emperor, Palpatine had to keep transferring to weaker and weaker bodies that break down faster and faster.

Finally, if he fails to overpower the mind of his victim when possessing them, his soul will be wiped from existence, reduced to nothing and chaos. Though, for good measure, the ghost of every Jedi who ever lived did band together to destroy his soul forever and make sure he could never return.

Therein lies Palpatine's greatest achievement. He's bathed the galaxy in so much blood, that every Jedi who ever lived utterly despised him by the end. For as powerful as every Sith that came after him was, none was truly born evil like Palpatine.

Throwdown Breakdown:

Despite the scope and variety on display here, I think this a fairly open shut case.

Caedus has the scaling chain advantage. Palpatine is above a Dark Empire Luke, but that Luke is weaker than Vong War Luke who is weaker than Second Galactic Civil War Luke who Ceadus is just beneath by a hair. While Palpatine's potential to accidentally destroy the entire setting puts him on the same infinity tier, he is canonically weaker.

This presents a big problem. Palpatine has never been weaker. In almost every major fight, he's always been at least slightly stronger. That's how he usually wins. Suddenly that safety net is gone.

Jacen also has the skill advantage. Palpatine is a master of all seven styles, but Jacen has the New Jedi Order styles on top of that and the combat experience edge as a front lines war hero.

It's in variety that Sidious can finally claim some advantages. His superior healing makes Caedus's poisons useless, his duplicates can close the skill gap somewhat, and sever force wouldn't work due to Palpatine already using the Dark Side, so you can't cut him off by surrounding him in it. But, on the other hand, Jacen can dispel his illusions with a clap, telekinesis can throw aside fire and ice, while teleportation can handly dodge the death fields.

I don't see their time travel powers coming into play much here. Jacen's requires extreme concentration while Palpatine's risks obliterating everything if he loses control and could destroy himself as he gets hit by it.

As the fight drags on, Palpatine will start melting and will keep switching to more and more bodies, each getting weaker and weaker, while Caedus's incredible endurance and stamina lets him keep going. Palpatine is skilled, powerful, and varied enough to force Caedus to exert himself as the fight drags on... but there can be only one conclusion.

Once again, Palpatine will attempt to possess Leia's son. Unlike the then not-yet-born Anakin, Jacen will be able to resist, destroying Palpatine's soul.

And also presumably time paradoxing himself from history given the big alterations. Oops. Didn't think that through, did ya Jacen?

This Throwdown's Winner is...

Darth Caedus!

Who's that snarky looking Hapan on the holoscreen waving to the cameras but giving Ta'a Chume a nasty look at the same time? Why that's Gadell Vessau.

This is an RP/aesthetic journal/love letter to a character I created for a Jacen Solo/Tenel Ka Djo (Star Wars: Expanded Universe/Legends) fanfiction back in the mid-00’s. I needed a character to A.) serve as a villain and B.) be part of the Hapan Royal staff and Gadell was born. He started out as a Commander in the Hapan fleet but has been everything from that to the Queen Mother’s hand to a social secretary. At this point, he’s the Queen Mother’s social secretary and closest advisor.

I would love to play Gadell with any Star Wars characters (especially the Hapan ones, naturally BRING ME YOUR QUEEN MOTHERS but not Ta'a Chume) so bring them all on! ♡

Robert Sheehan | he/him | cismale | Have you met [Finley “Fin” Casey] yet? They’re the [33] year old [photographer] that lives around [Finch Park]. I think they’ve lived in Seattle for [6 years]. From what I’ve heard, they’re [confident] but they can also be [unserious] if you get on their bad side. When I think of them, I usually think of [Change by DJO].

Stats

Name: Finley Declan Casey

Age/D.O.B: 33, May 9th, 1989

Hometown: Cobh, Ireland

Gender/pronouns: cismale, he/him

Sexuality: bisexual, biromantic

Occupation: photographer

General appearance: gif for reference

Positive traits: confident, friendly, patient

Negative traits: unserious, conceited, disruptive

Family: Aoife O’Connor (mother, 58), Sean Casey (father, 62), Cillian O’Connor (stepfather, deceased), Nora Casey (stepmother, 50) Bridget Casey (half sister, 20), Saoirse Casey (half sister, 18)

Bio (death tw, car accident tw, pregnancy tw)

Fin was planned, but at what cost? His parents’ relationship was certainly not solid enough to raise a baby together. But still, Aoife tried her best to give her little son a good life. He was a little spoiled, a little doted on - if he came home with a complaint about another student, you better believe that mother was getting a phone call as soon as Aoife could find the right phone number. But he was happy that was.

Sean Casey was a different story, on the other hand. He was your classic Irishman; stoic, emotionless, and detached. Fin never felt close with his father. Whenever they’d talk, it was either because he’d gotten in trouble at school, over the dinner table, or if they were for whatever reason stuck in the car together. Never out of want for a conversation. By the time Fin was seven, his parents were split up, and his already distant relationship with his dad lessened significantly. His dad was remarried by the time Fin was ten, and he had two younger half-sisters in the years that followed.

Aoife also remarried, but when Fin was thirteen, to a man named Cillian O’Connor. Cillian had never had children, never felt it was in the cards, so he immediately tried to form a relationship with Fin. He wasn’t really about it at first - at thirteen, it wasn’t like he was going to suddenly form a father-son relationship with this dude. Besides, Fin was kind of a rebel in most regards by then. He didn’t do his schoolwork, he skipped class whenever he could, he started fights with other kids. Not really a bad kid by any means, but with so much going on in his still young life, any attention felt like good attention to him.

His new stepdad was patient, though. He tried to connect with him for a while, until Fin was fifteen and something finally clicked. Cillian was a professional photographer, and one day his assistant called in sick so he asked Fin to come help him on a whim. And Fin fell in love. He loved the art behind getting a good picture; the way Cillian explained everything and taught him everything sparked a joy in him that he just hadn’t had before. He fell in love with it. So from then on, he worked with his stepfather. Once he’d graduated, he started working with him full time, eventually becoming a partner in his practice.

And that was how it went for years. Fin and Cillian worked together, both loving their craft and the bond it gave them, until Fin was 26 years old. Cillian died, very suddenly, in a car crash. It devastated both Fin and his mother greatly. After a brief hiatus, he tried to go back to work, but it wasn’t the same. He couldn’t bare to look at the same studio he’d shared with his stepdad for ten years. So, after closing up shop and getting his life together, Fin impulsively moved himself from Cobh to Seattle, Washington, where he’s been working as a freelance photographer ever since.

Not long after settling in, a couple moved in across the hall from Fin. One of whom shared an immediate liking with him, while the other... noticed. And didn’t appreciate it. For Fin and Stevie Dupree, it wasn’t really an issue, until her girlfriend up and left her. Fin didn’t blame himself or his flirty friendship with Stevie for it, because there was nothing between the pair of friends anyway, right? Wrong - for the first time in his life, he gladly accepted the ‘boyfriend’ title just shy of two years ago, and he’s been lovesick for Stevie ever since. They recently bought a cozy, two-bedroom house in Finch Park together, for them and for Baby Casey-Dupree, who will be arriving in the next few months.

Fun facts / wanted connections

Before settling down, Fin was .... a lil casanova. He was a flirt, he had Tinder Gold, and he was not ashamed of either of those things. He’s definitely still flirty in a more innocent, platonic way, but I imagine he’d have a few past flames around town

Goes without saying but thick Irish accent on this motherfucker. Can barely pronounce “th”

He does a lot of event photography (with Delilah Carreño sometimes!) and he’s a talkative fella. I’m sure he knows a lot of people from old gigs

He talks to his dad a little, but mostly just because he likes his half sisters and always wanted a relationship with them

Allergic to cats, afraid of cats, but will never pass up an opportunity to pet one. He’s a typical cat hater until one is in front of him, and then that’s A Baby that he must pet

Baby Casey-Dupree is UNPLANNED and A SHOCK that he never thought he’d want, but oh boy is he thrilled. Nervous, but thrilled!! If you play a parent and Fin knows them, he will be texting them at 2am like “what do I do if the baby doesnt like me, what then”

Has his best friend Edgar’s face tattooed on his buttcheek (NOT very well) and he will show you if you ask

He and Stevie used to live across from each other at West Point Homes and I would love if he had a former roommate that he lived with!

Crna hronika o IVICI&MARICI EPILOG :policija je bila, sa maricom bez Ivice NARAVNO,

Crna hronika o IVICI&MARICI EPILOG :policija je bila, sa maricom bez Ivice NARAVNO, ali ne po pozivu mog kolege, vec po pozivu Jovanovic Cire za narkomana VINKA muza JANKOVIC MAJE koji je napao njihovu familiju kao sto je mene, psa moje kcerke I mog kolegu napao bez povoda I razloga nozem skakavcem 15.januara tekuce sto je isti Dan prijavljeno TUZILASTVU, doticni se I skidao gol na ulici, vadio SMECE iz kontejnera I ulazio u kontejner. Marica se VRATILA prazna ali je nasilje ostalo kao PRETNJA da visi u vazduhu, a Vinko je citiram lice koje ga je prijavilo za NAPAD - "pokazao ludacke papire" I time opravdao svoje ludjacko PONASANJE I agresiju. Na Dan tragedije u Novom Sadu najprije su mi kukavicki djecu poslali da mi lupaju na vrata i uznemiravaju(ali to je "ispeglano" diplomatski na visem nivou posredstvom istaknutog politicara intelektualca tako treba da Bude civilizirano) a potom su mi pridvece bacili "rascvetan" kondom kao majmunske dupe na kucni prag, da bi na sam Dan Zalosti povodom tragedije pogibije 14oro ja DOBILA PRETNJE SMRCU na ulici od Elvir Gerine I sijaset neistinitih UVREDA, insiunacija, kleveta I bezocnih LAZI koje je uputio svojoj ZRTVI mom kolegi u mom PRISUSTVU o meni kao da sam najgori DEBIL koji je duzan to da trpi kao veliku TRAUMU I DUSEVNE BOL, jer sam mu pomogla svo nasilje od ranije sam presla prijeko svega, 11 mjeseci trpela da lije kanalizacioni odliv na moj plafon I bojler koji je prouzrokovao stalnim nesavjesnim poplavama u kupatilu PRILIKOM ciscenja .I ja sam morala da cekam da se raspise tender za MAJSTORE za tu hitnu intervenciju, tu stetu kojom je ostetio drzavu za 100.000rsd I jos mu I svjedok bila u prekrsajnom postupku kada je u pijanom stanju radio drugima, zaleci se da su mu psovali mrtvu majku,bas zato sto je MRTVA, sve sto je I meni kasnije u "ZNAK zahvalnosti" takodjer u pijanom stanju radio,

JEL dogorjelo do nokata ZRTVAMA nasilja da treba da budu protesti ili netreba prosudite PRAVEDNO #InternationalPolice #Criminology #genocide #policija #NotSecure #tuzilastvo #JusticeForVictims #JusticeMatters #JusticeDepartment

Od toga Dana ZALOSTI KOJOM PRILIKOM SAM DOBILA PRETNJE SMRCU OD LICA KOJE TREBA DA ME RESPEKTUJE KAO SVETINJU I PROSTRE CRVENI TEPIH ZA MOJU DUGOTRPELJIVOSTI, COVJECNOST I TOLERANTNOST, SAM UTUCENA I PONIZENA U DUBOKOJ NEVJERICI DA SE DOBRO VRACA U TOLIKOJ MJERI ZLA, PAKOSTI I MRZNJE NELJUDSKOSTI.
