Ko-fi commission of the adorable Chiss Rel and Essie for @mimabeann!

One more reblog on this--just hit this scene in a replay and I do think it's probably not implemented currently in the game. My reading of the dialogue tree is that the second dialogue option is probably supposed to be replaced with [what about our relationship?], given that I fully romanced her in chapter 1 (and there seems to be accounting for various chapter 1 ending options and a partial romance scenario):

Well, the audio for the date scene sure is in that rip I linked previously, if anyone's interested!

Anyone spotted this cutscene?

Hey SWTOR folks--

I've been spending a lot of time on the TorCommunity dialogue database for fic purposes lately, and as a Shara Jenn/Imperial Agent shipper I'm legitimately haunted by this allusion to a Chapter 3 scene with her--I've never ever seen a recording of it, and apart from here the only mention of it I've turned up is a passing comment on a nearly decade-old Reddit post, so I'm curious if it's still in the game and if anyone's encountered it!

Based on context clues, it seems to be triggered by this set of choices when you talk to her at the beginning of Chapter 2:

Agent: [What about our relationship?] And what happens to us? With the promotion, the assignment, all of it… Keeper: I know. I didn't mean it to go this way, Cipher. But it's over. There really isn't another choice. Agent: [I don't accept that.] So we just forget each other and walk away? It doesn't work like that. Keeper: What do you suggest? Partners in the field are one thing, but a Cipher and Keeper--it can't be allowed. Agent: [Give it a chance.] I'm not asking for the world. I'm asking you to keep an open mind. Keeper: I'm not--you need to leave for Nar Shaddaa. There's a meet set up with Ardun Kothe's men. I'll…think about what you've said. But focus while you're out there; I want you back alive.

And then here's a route through the scene itself with maximum flirt options (if I'm parsing it all correctly):

Keeper: Cipher, don't say anything. I'm walking out of the Citadel, and I'd like to discuss the…personal matters you've brought up before. Can we meet in the Nexus Room? For a drink? Agent: [Flirt, Of course.] I've been waiting to hear you say that for ages. Keeper: I'm aware of that. Five minutes, alone, please. [Scene break, she sends your companion away] Keeper: Hello, Cipher. Thank you for coming. You know, I don't often drink--the headaches and nosebleeds are part of the price of my heritage. Agent: [Flirt, You look nervous...] Are you uncomfortable? Can I help you relax? Keeper: In a manner of speaking. Quite a while ago, when I took this designation, I said we were over and you said I should keep an open mind. I did, and I thought, and I realized I don't know why you were being so persistent. Agent: [I care deeply about you.] I was being persistent because you mean the world to me. Keeper: Strange to hear you talk like that. I like you, Cipher. I like that you're an effective agent, I like the way you make my brain fuzz over. I'm not going to resign as Keeper, and we can't--but I'm willing to hope, and watch for our chance to be together. Agent: [Kiss her, What about now?] Some chances pass by quickly. Keeper: They do, at that. They'll be expecting me in the Citadel. Please be careful on this mission--I can't predict what's ahead. Agent: [We'll make this work someday.] I swear to you, you won't regret choosing to try. Keeper: That's not your promise to make. Get to your ship, and we'll have the future when it comes.

SWTOR OC

I'm temporarily obsessed with swtor, so... do you have OCs in this game? Maybe drawings or headcanons for them?

If you were looking for a place to share them, it's here)) Share your characters in the comments (and if you don't mind, I'll probably try to draw those you publish))

Pic for attention)

Returning to Tatooine was never going to be a happy affair for Cipher 16.

This is a redraw of a really really old comic I did like 10 years ago?? Man time does fly. I thought it'd be fun to do it justice :D

oc time again! + her town & culture (heavily inspired by pre-roman italic populations)

she is suri sauthon. her story is linked to my swtor imperial agent, tar'x, but most of her life except for the one year away where she meets him, is spent in a town in the mountains of mirial.

despite mirial being cold and desert, and many cities developing underground, her town flourishes thanks to a force nexus, venerated in the form of an ancient, sacred, alive crystal. the ecosystem of that mountain depended on what "the horned crystal" was capable of giving them, but mirialans couldn't live off of that alone, so they developed trade and some rudimental technology, even if oftentimes it was bought thanks to the highly profitable trade of a plant used to make medicines that slowed down aging and had overall healing properties.

note: everything that's generated by this nexus has these healing properties BUT they have to be processed, except for those who bathed in the waters of the cavity under the crystal - the "real" nexus, but not the worshipped one. the waters were sacred but they were not thought to be miraculous, unlike the crystal, who instead was thought of as the keystone of the ecosystem: without it, everything would fall apart (and that is partially true: the cavity was the "real" nexus but thanks to the crystal, also strong in the force, the properties were spread all over the mountains). those who bathed in the cavity's waters - so, all of the town, who had a sort of baptism there - could eat the plant, make whatever food with it, and not only that plant, but everything generated by the nexus, that, again, had similar properties. this allowed people to live up to normal life-spans without advanced medicines or, much, really. to those who didn't live there, though, after the processing, had incredible effects, slowing down aging - for those who took it regularly - and making people able to live up to half a century more than the average]

originally, there were four tribes of nomads that lived thanks to horned farm animals that decided to settle down into one bigger town and other smaller settlements, to live off of transhumance. this division of the tribes stayed into the political and social organization: every person belonged to one tribe specifically, and had slightly different rituals and culture. for examples, each tribe had their own priests and healers, with different techniques and traditions. the town, tho, was guided by a group of people in the high priesthood, a position you could reach only by having earned the trust of all tribes. those high priests had many roles: they guided the people into sacred processions common to all the tribes, they managed the trading with outsiders, they did the maintenance of the temple of the summit (the one that functioned as casket to the crystal) and created a special liquid to offer the crystal that helps it grow.

this particular temple was important because 1. it was very visible, from every angle of the town, and it became an important identity symbol; 2. it stored the venerated horned crystal; 3. it had the altar where sacrifices were made for the crystals. that altar had a hole connected to the cavity, that allowed the liquids to reach the underground; 4. it had various symbols: statues representing each tribe + the high priesthood, and typical mirialan tattoos carved into the wood of the trees that served as columns for the temple, symbolizing 8 values that who dared to enter HAD to have; 5. it was on the way to an important lake (called "mother lake" because the lake the town was built around to depended on the waters of that other lake) where they traveled to in important processions; 6. it was said that a the wizard who unified the tribes made it with its magic, making the plant grow to hold the temple's roof. this wizard was, actually, a force user, obv.

BACK TO HER THOUGH: she's daughter of one of the high priests, who was in charge of managing the trades with outsiders, and lives in a house on the mountains with her mother and him. her parents are from different tribes (that's one of the things that earned him trust from the 4 tribes): when a child is born from two different tribes, they don't pick one to allign to, but they're usually linked automatically to the one with more relatives in it (in her case, the father's tribe: she had many uncles and aunts on his side while her mom only had one sister).

later, though, she got quite tied to her mother's tribe due to a mysterious illness that only her mother's tribe healer was able to cure. she spent 4 years (from 10 to 14 years old) living with the healer and learned her secrets. to better study, she wrote them down. when she returned home, she studied to become a priestess with her father. at 22 (the average age: you can't become priest before your 20s), she was supposed to take a test and become a priestess, but the healer of her mother's tribe died and the tribe asked her to take her place. she couldn't technically do that, but both tribes estimated both her and her parents and she was allowed to become both. she then decided to try to become a high priestess, and became one at 25 (a quite young age). being part of the council, she tried to convince the various tribe healers to unite their knowledges and write them down, and eventually made it. healers still remained tribe based but they now had an "upper, inter-tribe level" similar to high priesthood.

years later, the sacred horned crystal is stolen from the temple by some Hutt mercenaries looking for a profit. given the trust she has earned from all the tribes and the fact that her father is the high priest that deals with outsiders (and she's been hearing stories and advice about it since she was little), she is the one tasked with getting it back. without the growing crystal, the keystone to their ecosystem, the village would have lasted only a few years. in hrr quest, she meets imperial intelligence agent tar'x laran and, as they "solve the mystery" and fight to have it back, they get closer. they'll get married and have a daughter, Vegoia (who's the only one who actually will get to the plot of my story. this was all background)
