FORCE SENSITIVE - N FORCE POINTS: 5 DARK SIDE POINTS: 0 CHARACTER POINTS: 15 Character Bio - When young Carth Onasi signed up to join the Galactic Republic military, he fully believed in the strength of the institution. A loyal soldier, skilled pilot and superior tactician, he operated with distinction in both small border skirmishes and in major engagements. Though the events of the Mandalorian Wars forever cemented Carth's reputation as a hero, their aftermath dealt a fatal blow to Carth's idealism. In the Sith resurgence that targeted a weakened Republic, the evil Darth Malak sundered Carth's homeworld of Telos. Carth's young wife was killed, and Dustil, his son, was missing. Compounding this tragedy was the betrayal that further fueled the Sith conquest. Some of the highest-ranking officers of the Republic were seduced by the Sith, including Carth's trusted mentor, Admiral Saul Karath. Once, honor and loyalty drove Carth to fight the Sith. Vengeance and hatred threatened to replace these laudable attributes, as Carth made it his life's goal to bring Karath to justice. Carth found himself unable to trust anyone, particular the inscrutable Jedi he was often teamed with in his missions. He still carried out his duty, escaping from the Endar Spire over Taris and freeing the captive Jedi Bastila Shan before that world was also destroyed by the Sith. He accompanied Bastila and a special Jedi initiate in their mission to uncover the mystery of the Star Forge. On this quest, Carth had his chance at revenge, killing Karath on the bridge of the Leviathan. During the search for Darth Malak, Carth was a 38 standard years old. He was a handsome man with brown hair. He typically dressed in fatigues and flight jacket, and favored blaster weaponry. He most often piloted the Ebon Hawk during this mission.

Star Wars and the History of Transmedia Storytelling
13. Chasing Wild Space Narrative Outsides and World-Building Frontiers in Knights of the Old Republic and The Old Republic Cody Mejeur As introduced in the iconic line that precedes the first film’s opening crawl, Star Wars’s galaxy far, far away is the foundation for the franchise’s world- building efforts. It is the backdrop and context for the story told by any Star Wars film, novel, game, or other text,1 and as such it functions as a narrative world or storyworld. David Herman describes a storyworld as the “mental model” of the larger world of a text, one that audiences construct from “textual cues and the inferences that they make possible.”2 In other words, the Star Wars galaxy is only partially represented by any particular text, and audiences use that partial representation to imagine how the rest of the galaxy works. However, it seems strange to call the Star Wars galaxy, itself an agglomeration of inconsistent and contested narratives, characters, and worlds, a singular storyworld. Marie-Laure Ryan’s recent conception of the narrative universe as an accumulation of storyworlds seems more apt.3 This chapter therefore explores the space of the Star Wars galaxy as a narrative universe, arguing that it renews itself and its transmedial franchise through the mystery of outside spaces. The use of these outside spaces in Star Wars suggests a new modification or addition to existing theories of narrative world-building, and draws critical attention to the ethical and political dimensions of world-building processes. A narrative universe relies on the creation of narrative space, including a dynamic process of expanding and exploring that space.

Planets D6 / Taris
Planets D6 / Taris Name: Taris Type: Terrestrial Temperature: Hot Atmosphere: Type 1 Hydrosphere: Moderate Gravity: Standard Terrain: Cityscape Length of Day: 26 hours Length of Year: 381 local days Sapient Species: Humans Starport: Stellar Population: 6 Billion Planet Function: Trade, Military Base Government: Democracy Tech Level: Space Major Exports: High Technology, Medical Supplies Major Imports: Food, Starship Technology, Swoop Bikes Description: Taris was once a galactic hub, being situated on the intersection of important hyperspace trade routes. However, prior to the Jedi Civil War several new, shorter routes were discovered, rendering Taris unnecessary. The planet began to decay, but still remained quite important in galactic life. It is believed the swoop bikes first originated on Taris, where swoop racing captured the imagination of the galaxy circa 4,000 BBY. Using an intricate system of hyperspace beacons, Taris race organizers would broadcast the results of the swoop races throughout the galaxy which eventually gave rise to a huge and profitable gambling operation. Taris remained a hub for swoop racing for decades, despite opposition from the Hutts and other criminal organizations. The city of Taris was usually divided into three levels: the Upper City, the Lower City and the Undercity. The Upper City was a beautiful area inhabited by rich people. Access to the Upper City was restricted to humans, although notable non-humans found in the Upper City included a Twi'lek droid merchant Janice Nall, Ajuur the Hutt and a Rodian duelist Twitch. The Upper City featured a cantina, which was famous for its dueling ring owned by Ajuur the Hutt, and Zelka Forn's medical facility, which was famous for being able to heal all diseases but the infamous rakghoul disease.

Mon K.O.T.O.R. 3: La Triade Jedi Chapitre 8 : Chapitre 6: Elegia et le testament de Mandalore. Chapitre 8 : Chapitre 6: Elegia et le testament de Mandalore. Par Chaad Draconis Publié sur Fanfictions.fr. Voir les autres chapitres. Entrez votre texte ici -Je me suis toujours demandée qui et comment vous étiez. Maintenant que je vous vois, je comprends. Je retrouve chez vous une fibre commune avec Lynn : cette capacité à tisser des liens de Force de façon naturelle et innée. Cette âme de chef. Quelque chose qui ne s’enseigne pas. Revan avait été abordé par Brianna peu de temps après leur départ de la petite lune. Elle sentait le besoin au fond d’elle de mieux connaitre le célèbre Jedi revenu du Côté Obscur. Elle reprit. -Je reconnais en vous les stigmates laissés par ces dix ans d’errance dans les mondes inconnus, dans l’Empire Sith. Vous les cachez à Bastila, comme Lynn me les cache. Mais au contact de Galaad j’ai compris. « Contact » pensa Revan. Il avait presque une certaine gêne à parler avec la Maître Echani puisque Lynn lui avait demandé d’en savoir un peu plus sur ses relations avec le Jedi Poète. -Tous ces jours et ces nuits passés avec lui… Il a sut me laisser entrevoir ces horreurs. Au moins leur impact. « Nuits passées avec lui » pensa Revan. 1 / 35 Mon K.O.T.O.R. 3: La Triade Jedi Chapitre 8 : Chapitre 6: Elegia et le testament de Mandalore. -Je me suis laissée pénétrée par une part cachée de lui.

Game Narrative Review
Game Narrative Review ==================== Game Title: Knights of the Old Republic Platform: Xbox, Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X Genre: Role-playing game with D&D-based mechanics Release Date: July 15, 2003 (North American Xbox release) Developer: BioWare Publisher: LucasArts Game Writer/Creative Director/Narrative Designer: Drew Karpyshyn Author of this review: Todd Nelling School: The Guildhall at SMU Overview Knights of the Old Republic is set approximately 4,000 years before the events of the Star Wars movies. The Republic is under attack by Sith forces led by Darth Malak, the former apprentice of Darth Revan. The player’s character starts the game aboard the Endar Spire, a Republic ship that is under attack by Malak’s forces. One of the Jedi also aboard, Bastila Shan, is key to the Republic’s war effort, so when the Endar Spire is destroyed, scattering escape pods onto the planet Taris, the player attempts to locate and rescue Bastila. Gathering companions along the way, the player locates Bastila and escapes Taris, heading to Dantooine to meet with the Jedi Council. On Dantooine, the Jedi Council trains the player to be a Jedi, and then tasks the player with searching for a series of Star Maps, which they believe will point the way to the Star Forge, the source of Malak’s seemingly inexhaustible supply of ships and weapons. The player encounters Malak during this journey, and Malak reveals that the player was actually Darth Revan, before being captured and brainwashed by the Jedi Council. Eventually, the player locates the Star Forge and confronts Malak there.

The Last Days of the Republic
THE LAST DAYS OF THE REPUBLIC It is a dark time for the GALACTIC REPUBLIC. Fifteen years ago the JEDI CIVIL WAR began with the redemption of the Dark Lord, DARTH REVAN. With his help, the jedi were able to gain the upper hand in the war, culminating in the destruction of Revan's STAR FORGE and the death of his apprentice, DARTH MALAK. For a brief time there was peace, but when Master Revan left for the Unknown Regions to investigate an immanent threat, a terrible trio of Sith Lords used his absence to descend upon the galaxy. The new Dark Lord, DARTH NIHILUS, and his apprentice, DARTH SION, began the FIRST JEDI PURGE, an extermination of all Force Users both light and dark. Together, they slaughtered most of the remaining jedi masters at the MASSACRE OF KATARR. Sith assassins killed thousands of jedi knights and forced the survivors into hiding, afraid to reveal themselves and be executed. Forced to seek new allies, the LAST JEDI, an exile, teamed with MANDALORE and destroyed Darth Nihilus's ship, the RAVAGER, with him aboard. The event brought the remaining jedi masters to Dantooine, where the true Dark Lord, DARTH TRAYA, revealed herself and slew them all. Tracking her to the dying planet of Malachor V, the Exile defeated Traya and Sion, breaking the hold of the Sith on the galaxy. A decade after the death of Darth Traya, Master BASTILA SHAN was sent to Malachor V to destroy any remnants of the Sith Academy. Once an apprentice to Darth Malak, she was unable to resist the temptation of the Dark Side and fell a second time.

STAR WARS and the History of Transmedia Storytelling
3 TRANSMEDIA Guynes and Hassler-Forest (eds) of Transmedia Storytellingof Transmedia History the and Wars Star Edited by Sean Guynes and Dan Hassler-Forest STAR WARS and the History of Transmedia Storytelling Star Wars and the History of Transmedia Storytelling Transmedia: Participatory Culture and Media Convergence The book series Transmedia: Participatory Culture and Media Convergence provides a platform for cutting-edge research in the field of media studies, with a strong focus on the impact of digitization, globalization, and fan culture. The series is dedicated to publishing the highest-quality monographs (and exceptional edited collections) on the developing social, cultural, and economic practices surrounding media convergence and audience participation. The term ‘media convergence’ relates to the complex ways in which the production, distribution, and consumption of contemporary media are affected by digitization, while ‘participatory culture’ refers to the changing relationship between media producers and their audiences. Interdisciplinary by its very definition, the series will provide a publishing platform for international scholars doing new and critical research in relevant fields. While the main focus will be on contemporary media culture, the series is also open to research that focuses on the historical forebears of digital convergence culture, including histories of fandom, cross- and transmedia franchises, reception studies and audience ethnographies, and critical approaches to the culture industry and commodity culture.
