Flirting - Sam Libbak, Koth Vortena, Lana Beniko, and HK

Transcript:

Koth: Me and HK will handle those Knights. Whatever it takes, get the Gravestone flying.

Sam: Bravery in the face of certain death is only attractive when you survive. Promise you'll come back alive.

Koth: It's more romantic if I come back almost dead.

HK: Support: I can inflict non-lethal wounds if it will aid your courtship, masters.

Lana: This is still an open channel!

So apparently re-joining the Empire and allowing Krovos to bomb Corellia has some interesting side effects for the Theron romance.

Lemme tell you the way I SHRIEKED...

Arcann's story is the epitome of Star Wars, addressing the themes at the very heart of the saga: perseverance on the journey from darkness to light, lamenting past transgressions, the power of redemption, and forging connections to others.

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)

#4 in my series of SWTOR characters- this one is my sith inquisitor, maralo

FOR THE REPUBLIC!!!!!!

[coruscanti-travelguide]

Multiplayer games are so funny to me because a character will tell you that you are their last hope, and you're the only one who can bring back their lost brother/dog/family heirloom and then you turn around and see them giving the same story to 5 other people like, I thought I was special :(

Boo! - Vienna and Theron

Transcript:

Theron: ...Is that what I think it is?

Vienna: One of Iokath's original creators. Looks like it's been dead for centuries.

Theron: Let's hope it stays that way.

Vienna: [Brief pause] Bah!

Theron: Ahh!

Vienna: Whatever happens here, it was all worth it just to see that look on your face.

Theron: Very funny. Now unless you've got another joke up your sleeve, I'm going to get to work.

It's taken 12 years, but I finally bit the bullet and got HK-51.

[spartanfoxart]

Finally finished my painting of my SWTOR Sith Inquisitor, Irenvi (Kir'en'vimic) aka Darth Nox. He's clinically insane and I love him.

I've been a bit slower creating art lately due to a promotion at work back in July and just being on and off sick, but I'm really happy with these last two pieces. I feel like I can see my artistic skills growing over time, and that makes it worth it.

I also want to thank those of you following me, who interact with my art whether by commenting, liking, or sharing-- those of you who have been here from the start and those of you who are new here. It means so much to me. I'm looking forward to another year of sharing art with you all!
