*peeks into the thread*
Probably a strange first post to these forums, but I wanted to join in with some old stuff of my own from years back. These days I don't do my own stuff, but I like to keep an eye out for artists.
First, one of the primary protagonists in a short story I had planned.
Excerpt:
Some are born to be heroes, held up as examples to all of what is good and right. They never falter, never waver, and see their course through, knowing in their hearts that what they do is right. I envy them, if my path were so clear, I'd could be more sure of what I'm about to do...
I was once a knight of the republic, a Jedi Knight who was sworn to uphold its ideals for the sake of civilization, if not peace itself. I, an orphan, thanks to a lack of civilization and peace was sworn to protect it. The master who trained me was like the father I never had... I loved him. I do not mourn his death in the line of duty, I do not blame the Jedi for his death, I respect and honor them still.
Yet I can no longer count myself one of their number. In fear I ran, though I was but a padawan I feared I too would be cast out for failure. I now understand how wrong I was. Yet in my wanderings, I have traveled past the borders of the republic and seen many more stars, with people who live as I used to. Where the ideals of the republic and the strength of the Jedi cannot reach. For the sake of my father's memory, and to make right my own sins, I will no longer be a knight of the republic.
I will become a Knight of the Stars.
This was actually kind of a random lark image. I just really wanted to use the armor and freeby lightaber I found, and a starship. I designed it based on the power armor my table top SW character wore by the end of the game. So it represents the character visually, and somewhat in spirit, but it's not the same guy.
And a principal antagonist. She's a twi'lek, but the hood kind of covers her lekku.
Excerpt:
Too long have we sat and waited for our time to come! Too long have we trained and proved our worthiness to the weak and frightened beings who dare call themselves our masters! Do we not grow ever more powerful in the Darkside? Are we not stronger than those who came before us? ARE WE NOT SITH!?
WE ARE!
Now is the time my brethren, now is our time to rise up and destroy ANY who would stand in the way of our right to rule! Be they Jedi, Sith, an Empire or Republic!
And if we are not destined to rule it, THEN WE SHALL SEE THIS GALAXY BURN!
Now, someone bring my daughter here...
When I made the image, she looked like she should be giving a speech. *shrug*
I have several more of related characters, but I don't want to inundate the thread just yet, I'm still trying to remember how to format stuff XD Hopefully the pics and excerpts will be in spoiler tags as I intended.
