KotOR Week 2024

To celebrate the 20th anniversary of the release of Knights of the Old Republic: the Sith Lords, I want to celebrate with a week of prompts for artists, writers and every other creator in the fandom!

Any creations based on any character or place or event of the games or the world around them is applicable for this event! NSFW is allowed so long as it is put under a cut and properly tagged.

Day 1 (2nd December): Darth Revan

Day 2 (3rd December): The Jedi Exile

Day 3 (4th December): The Crew of the Ebon Hawk

Day 4 (5th December): The Mandalorian Wars

Day 5 (6th December): The Jedi Civil War

Day 6 (7th December): Post Game

Day 7 (8th December): Freeform

All these prompts are very wide and open, and mostly just inspiration, not something that needs to be followed, so if you want to make something entirely different, that would be completely fine!

Looking forward to see what people create!

How hilarious is it that Kreia finds out Atton is a former Jedi hunter/torturer/murderer and is immediately like “Perfect. Babysit my Jedi.”

One of the best parts of KoTOR 2 to me is how it subverts the typical Star Wars trend of having the main character be the center of the universe. In most things Star Wars, especially the movies, everything revolves around the main character, and granted, that is partly because they will be our main protagonist, but also it specially focuses around them. Anakin Skywalker is the single most important person during the prequels, almost everyone plans involve him in some way, and his actions define almost everything else that happens. This trend continues in the other trilogies, with the Skywalkers being the main focus.

KoTOR 2 is similar in some aspects to this, the Exile is undoubtedly the center of the story, and their actions influence everyone else to the extreme. The subversion of this is that the majority of the exile's influence doesn't take place during the game arguably. It happens far before it.

The Exile is responsible for almost every one of their companions major neuroses. Your actions have defined everyone, if not always directly, and played major parts of shaping them into who they are by the time of the game. The way it plays out, it's like a sort of "afterword" of one of the movies. You experience the fallout of the actions and decisions you made, the result of being the center of the universe, and it is very rarely pretty. KoTOR 2's companions were broken by your actions, and now you have to mend that break.

Basically, I really love that KoTOR 2 shows the how being the most important person ever would really play out, and its incredibly destructive consequences. Its a really cool subversion of the typical Star Wars formula.

The differences between how the Jedi and the Sith view the Force can be seen irl in how different people treat love. The Jedi treat the Force as fire, to be carried from one torch to the other without diminishing the flame, which is why they believe in strength in numbers. The Sith treat the Force as venom, which loses its potency the more cups it's poured into, which is why they keep their numbers small.

In treating love like venom, you sacrifice a piece of yourself to fill others' cups and either become empty or isolate yourself to avoid that, which is where the Sith fell short. But remember, the Jedi also had so many numbers in the end that their fire became an uncontrollable inferno and then burnt out after their path of destruction.

FACT: I'm never gonna be able to take the Knights of the Old Republic games seriously ever again.

Hello KotOR fans 👋

I was thinking about celebrating KotOR and KotOR 2 with a week of prompts for artists and writers! I was thinking of maybe doing it around the 6th December when TSL was first released (20 years ago this year!) and I wanted to see what the general enthusiasm for something like this would be!

No, I don’t know what the setting or context are. She’s being an overly handsy master and he’s just simping.
