Um, what I mean is? I miiiight be thinking of apping during These Dark Times, and I was wondering two thiings:

1. Where in canon is your pup from?

2. If I were to app either a character who lives and dies entirely from between Eps II and III or a character who appears in all movies up to Ep VII despite dying in Ep IV, from where in canon would this pup cause least distress for all parties involved?

Hey droids and organics!

We've been (slowly) working our way through Hera and Kanan's timeline that eventually leads to the start of the Original Trilogy, and we wanted to reach out and see if others would be interested in doing out of Bar quasi-early-Rebellion era stuff with us. We're currently at around 4 years pre-A New Hope, and we'd be up for doing missions/encounters/hijinks/spy games/whatever. If you've got an idea, let us know!

Here's a hilarious link to Rogue One translated from Chinese subtitles using Google Translate! Hope you enjoy.

Here's a handy collection of links relating to Star Wars writing resources, including a glossary of slang!

If any Rogue One muns need screen caps of the movie, I found some here. Available as a gallery or one zip download.

Thought you all might be interested in this map of known Star Wars space. Jedha really is out in the boonies!

Hey lovely people.

Does anyone here know of or can recommend an active Star Wars fan fiction group? I need to sharpen my skills and working with non-writer friends is not proving the inspiring or honing as I'd hoped.

I've been posting on AO3 but the lack of interaction isn't helping much.

Any thoughts or advice?

So, the translation plot has thrown into sharp relief what the Star Wars languages are headcanoned to be. For example, Wookieepedia states that Basic is roughly equivalent to English--and all of the other languages the films are dubbed into, despite Aurebesh not remotely translating to an English alphabet.

Fi has been saying that Festian is similar to Spanish, and Chirrut-mun and I think Jedhan is similar to Mandarin Chinese, but clearly isn't.

What do you all think of the languages Star Wars has to offer?

Looking forward into what I'd like to do with Cassian, I want to check in on Rebels' timelines to make certain that I'm not in the way of anything. As well as possible ideas for times when perhaps characters could have conversations either outside of Milliways or talking more directly in Milliways. I do know at some point that I'm going to do an OOM of hearing Ezra's speech but from what I've seen of how Rebels' stuff is going, that will be a while.

At this point in time, I'm looking at two of Cassian's aliases: Willix-government agent on Ord Mantell which has a deep port and is in the Mid-Rim and Aach-Senatorial contact on Darknell in the Outer Rim. Another one is as an aide, Joreth Sward, to Imperial Admiral Grendreef but I can't find any information about the admiral, my plan for that is perhaps it was a one off assignment. It might have even been one that went bad. Fulcrum I'm not going to touch until after the next season of Rebels because it would be useful to know when he was using the codename in terms of Ahsoka and Kallus.

My plan for my next OOM is to have Cassian setting himself up in either the Willix or Aach cover for a longer assignment to mine a lot of information.

I would love thoughts in terms of how this might interact with what everyone else is planning. I have A New Dawn on my to-read pile and am finishing up Thrawn. This is up here as I figure its the best way to reach everyone.

Is there any precedent of whether the bar can provide kyber crystals or any technology containing kyber, like lightsabers?

As the rule is 'no living things' and the crystals are described es partially alive, I was wondering whether we have precedent, or whether we can agree on a common line on that question.

Thanks!

Hello! I have an idea for AU week, based on a tumblr AU that Maru wrote a while ago: no evil Empire. Just that--the Empire doesn't exist. The government is a republic, the Jedi are still around, and Baze and Chirrut will still be Guardians. What do you all think?

Hello, fellow Star Wars muns! Baze here, coming in from the stand-alone film, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. I plan to play Baze post-canon along with my partner-in-crime, Chirrut. I'll likely drop in on his threads whenever possible and he'll drop in on mine. We're a package deal. Baze will take up whittling, sit in the Caribbean sun, and bicker with his friends.

Is there anything Baze and Chirrut should not sense about your pups? Chirrut is Force-sensitive, and will know things that he otherwise wouldn't.

Let me know if you want a tag after I've apped him!

Fellow Star Wars' muns, I'm planning on apping Cassian this month and playing him in the years leading up to Rogue One. I want to explore what life inside the Rebellion was like and this could be a great chance to take advantage of what's going on in Rebels and other canon sources.

bjornwilde

The Rogue One teaser has dropped and holy kriff does it look good. Mon Mothma is back! I also realized this will be the first movie without a Skywalker, which I'm kind of looking forward to, to be honest.

Some interesting details I came across on lightsabers, behind a cut to save your feed.

Hello! Guess who's application just got approved?

So, here's the thing. I will be playing Kylo and his history/backstory/what have you from film canon only. I actually know pretty much nothing about the EU so it works for me. However, if any EU pups would like to interact with him, cool! Just know that he probably isn't going to know who you are, but shared verses are always comforting.

This can also be a place to ask any questions or let me know if you'd like Kylo to avoid your pup for reasons.

Thanks!

bjornwilde

I've requested an add for us this month, and it's right here. Any corrections or requests for wanted characters?

bjornwilde

A seemingly official timeline of the current Star Wars universe. This is main canon and not EU/Legends. It also has the benefit of spelling out what is part of official canon.

Thought it might be helpful. =)

bjornwilde

So I guess we could start with a cast list giving canon specific info?

Player:
Contact:
Character:
Canon:
Era:
Source:
ForceSensitivity:
Notes:

If you'd prefer to be anonymous, that's fine. Just write Anonymous for player.

Canon is used here to separate main canon (i.e. the modern, Disney owned Star Wars which includes all the movies, the Clone Wars TV series, Rebels, and any comics or novels published after April, 2014) or legends (i.e. the old EU. Video games, novels, and comics published before 2014). More from Wookiepedia, if you'd like the long answer.

Era is what historical era your character comes from; Rise of the Empire, Old Republic, Clone Wars, Rebellion, etc. Here is Wookiepedia's list of eras if you need some help; though these eras are defined more for publishing than actual historical eras.

Source is what media your character comes from; i.e. Knights of the Old Republic, The Clone Wars, Star Wars: Republic comics. I'm using source so as to not confuse with canon.

Force Sensitivity is for if your character is force sensitive and other notes such as how strong they are in the Force (1=Ray Stantz, 10=Yoda or Anakin), how much of the Light Side or Dark Side they might feel, etc.

Notes can be for anything else; AU ideas you might have, warning for how you may wish to play the pup, things you'd like to have happen to the pup, etc.
