more wars in the stars

[flyinglight]

Hello! I'm Chibi and bringing more space fantasy in the form of Luke Skywalker. He's basically gotten the chance to breathe from all those Happenings on Bespin, but that's it. He'll be friendly if a bit subdued either way, of course!

I have a permissions post here for your needs, what with certain Force abilities and whatnot.

I am, without a doubt, excited for this! Welcome to the game!

[flyinglight]

:D HI MOM! Ahem, hello. Looking forward to them meeting, yes~

[angelofnaboo]

Well, at least she knows she's going to be a mother, eventually.

[flyinglight]

Means one of them know what's what when introductions happen since he doesn't even know her name, haha. It's a good thing he's old enough not to need a mother in all senses of the word... :v makes it easier to deal with it?

[angelofnaboo]

Yes, she'll know what's what and then he'll finally have a name and a face. But, it'll still hurt her a little that her son is grown up and doesn't need her at all. :/

[flyinglight]

clearly I should've apped nine year old Luke shh he'll be happy to finally learn about his mother and have her around!

(I mean, never mind that it's sort of awkwardly weird his parents are his age but what can you do.)

[edgeoftheknife]

Welcome to the Turtle! I'm JC, I play Erskine Ravel from the Skulduggery Pleasant book series. Looking forward to seeing Luke around! :)

[flyinglight]

c: Hello! I haven't read that series, but I've seen it around.

[amberdrake]

Hi! I'm a new arrival as well; got in just last weekend. :)

I'm one of the few people in the world who is largely canon blind to Star Wars, so I look forward to RPing with ya.

[flyinglight]

:D Hello! That's quite a feat, haha. And, I got to say, while skimming through the app page yesterday I caught 'Star-Eyed Goddess' and was like ??? IS THAT and yeah it was, which is cool! I haven't read a lot of the Valdemar books, but a few of them at least.

[amberdrake]

Ha! Well, Drake's from back at the very start of it, chronologically. Before the Shin'a'in and Tayledras split off from the Kalad'a'in, before the Dhorisha Plains happened (well, all of that happens at the end of the first book, but still), and loooong before Valdemar was a country, etc. :3

I watched the first star wars trilogy way back in the day but I remember like none of it. So we should be on pretty even footing! 8D

[flyinglight]

Ahh, I see! I've read the books about the second(?) Mage Wars, so that's why I didn't recognise the character's name even when 'mage wars' was mentioned, haha.

[amberdrake]

You're probably thinking of the Mage Storms. Which... also started in Amberdrake's time. 8D

The Mage Storms books was just when the ripple was coming back. Like, what, a thousand years later?

(Also, if that was the trilogy involving Darkwind, everyone wave at actual!reincarnated Amberdrake! *waves furiously at the angsty sad mage from the tour bus*)

[flyinglight]

Ah, yes, that's it! That was definitely the trilogy I read. XD

And aww. /pats him

[clonekiller]

Yaaaaaaay!

I'm looking forward to Galen being a wet blanket in the debate of "Could Darth Vader be redeemed?" while also being bros with Luke :-D

[flyinglight]

:D Hellooo

Also HE TOTALLY CAN BE REDEEMED not that Luke has had the time to even consider that yet, lol, but I'm sure he'll arrive to that opinion anyway. It'll be ok, Galen.

[clonekiller]

I'm still just looking forward to them palling around in the "my father was a Jedi who broke the Jedi Code" club. I'm picturing Galen riding around on Luke's back, Yoda-style :-D

[flyinglight]

Look here you're not a knee-high goblin-frog who weighs nothing what sort of miracles do you expect him to pull here?! and don't say 'the force' ok But yes, absolutely~ C:

[clonekiller]

Well, Galen DOES live in the Wood Sector (or he will soon. He's been house-shopping for a suitable hut), and I've been sort of angling him to become the angry Obi-Wan of that Sector.

Alternately, he's The Lorax. With lightsabers.

Really? I'm just looking for an excuse to post this:

[flyinglight]

I should've expected that, I feel.

Also Galen, come on. You can do better than becoming an angry hermit! Luke will do his best to not let that happen I guess. xD

[hadthehighground]

MY SON'S SON

[flyinglight]

HE'S NOT CALLING YOU GRANDFATHER, BEN!!

hi

[hadthehighground]

BUT WHY NOT

Hi, welcome to the game! I am so excited for this CR!

[flyinglight]

ISN'T UNCLE GOOD ENOUGH?

Thank you! :D And yess, me too.

[badly_behaved_priest]

Hello~ Welcome! Okay I've only been here since, like, the 3rd, but I can say hi anyways. I know a bit about Star Wars but I'm still largely canon blind due to forgetting most of it, whoops.

Hope you have a fun time here. :>

[flyinglight]

:D Hello! And yeah, I'm pretty sure you can, haha.

Sure I will! AND SANZO! c: Saiyuki is so great.

[badly_behaved_priest]

Yesss, more people here that know what Saiyuki is! :D (I shouldn't talk, my roommate got me into it in the last few months, oops I'm hooked.)

I look forward to the chance to rp with ya. :> Not sure what Sanzo would think of Luke. Probably something grumpy.

[amberdrake]

...one of us, one of us, one of us...

[flyinglight]

I absolutely do! Followed while it was being released, haha. I love variations on Journey to the West xD

Same! C: And lol, isn't that what Sanzo thinks of everybody... :P but he can deal with that

[gistful]

Hi! I'm Pur, a modly; I play Hotel proprietor Anton Shudder here and blind necromancer Solomon Wreath (peacefullywreathed). Welcome! I was pretty stoked to see Luke's canonpoint, just on the basis of it being before the third film, so he's not as zen and confident in himself. He's going to be fun from this point, I think!

I just have a thing to pass by you -- we did have a Luke in the past, for a very limited time, whom Solomon recognised as being from Star Wars, and he's recognised Obi-Wan. How would you like to play that?

He absolutely would not fourth-wall Luke even if he does recognise him again (because he's a troll who finds it more fun to drop hints about 'oh so and so told me about you'), but if you like I can have his memory of the films be hazy enough that he only remembers the ones more recently released (hence remembering Obi-Wan and not Luke).

[flyinglight]

:D Hello! And yeah, this is basically my favourite canon point for the Issues and before he's settled (I love me my baby pre-ESB Luke, but yeah). He's obviously very impressive come RotJ, but part of the interesting thing is how he got there...

I'm absolutely fine with him recognising Luke since there'd be no fourth-walling going on directly! (which is the only thing I really want to avoid because I'm not so ready to try and deal with that) So he can be a bit of a troll about it. c:

[gistful]

Agreed! His demeanour when he first appears in ROTJ is such a dramatic change that it always makes me wonder what we didn't get to see as he arrived in that mindset, and makes me a bit sad we didn't get more of Luke after his fight with Daddy but before he came to terms with it. I'm really looking forward to seeing how he handles here.

No worries! That's the majority preference in TS, but I've got a few people my guys have recognised under the caveat that they don't talk about it, so it's easy enough to add Luke to that list. :3 Cheers!

[flyinglight]

Haha yeah. The only thing that even vaguely deals with that in either new or old canon is Shadows of the Empire, but it felt like Luke had both already come past the biggest humps, and still weren't really believing it, so it's like... /handwiggle

:D Great.
