"Although the modern era of the Sith is attributed to Darth Bane, and the Dark Jedi that preceded him, the cult can find its roots further back in the galaxy's ancient past. Long before the Republic rose, there lived a culture on the planet Korriban. These primitive people were called the Sith, and the Force flowed strongly through their bloodlines. Although they didn't practice the Force as the Jedi would, they were talented in their own brand of magic. In the early days of the Jedi, a great schism tore the order apart. Jedi who had tapped the forbidden power of the Force's dark side rebelled against their light-sided brothers. After a terrible war, the Dark Jedi were exiled from the Republic. Past the Republic's growing borders, these castaways discovered Korriban and the Sith people. Powerful with the dark side, the Jedi outcasts set themselves up as gods on Korriban. The primitive Sith worshipped them as their lords, and so the Jedi grew, and built temples and monuments to celebrate their power. Millennia of interbreeding blurred the distinction between Sith native and offworlder, and the term Sith came to encompass not only the indigenous people of Korriban, but also the powerful overlords that ruled them. Five thousand years ago, during the Sith Empire's golden age, a Republic explorer vessel stumbled upon the secluded worlds of the Sith. One Sith Lord, Naga Sadow, saw this as an opportunity to invade the Republic, and exact vengeance on the Jedi who had banished them. History would record the invasion that followed as the Great Hyperspace War, and it would be the first of many terrible conflicts between Jedi and Sith. Time and again the Sith and Jedi would clash, with devastated worlds lying in their wake. The last great conflict took place on the scarred plains of Ruusan. The Sith Lord Kaan and his Brotherhood of Darkness did battle with the Jedi Army of Light. From this onslaught, one Sith escaped: Darth Bane. It was he who would resurrect the order with duplicity and secrecy in mind." http://www.starwars.com/databank/organization/thesith/?id=eu

Well, maybe a Darkside Disciple... After all, Mical looks pretty evil when he's DS:
-
Kelly Hu! Although those are contacts she wore in this promo pic for X-Men 2. The voice of Visas.
-
What about Julian Sands as Mical? Ok, wrong eye color, true... This girl reminds me of Visas quite a bit (and for good reason!)

Celebrating episode III: Kyla's fanart

This is the only Swiss German word I know: Chuchich -
Did you know you can buy a Dancing twilek?!
Vashanti replied to Arim's topic in Star Wars: General Discussion
Hmm, I guess I need to learn a bit of patience, then. -

Vashanti replied to Arim's topic in Star Wars: General Discussion
Every time I kept her when playing DS, she always said she couldn't talk while dancing when I approached her. When does she pay out, so to speak? -
Celebrating episode III: Kyla's fanart
Vashanti replied to Kyla Carth's topic in Star Wars: General Discussion
COOL! How many languages do you speak? :D -
Aye, Selma Blair does indeed remind me of Visas, now that you mention it.
-
The cool thing is that just about every skill has some conversation options which open up in certain circumstances, once your skill reaches a certain point. I love Repair, personally; being able to break things down into many components makes me feel all fuzzy inside. Each skill (except for Persuade) has a tier of (usually) great things that can be made, depending on how high one's skill goes. Repair just happens to cover some of the recipes that I dig.

Heh I dunno any of her current projects, but I'm pretty sure I remember that photo from the height of the X-Files days. I just found it with a Google image search, then cropped and hosted it. She's only done one movie with nudity (top), AFAIK, which was released overseas originally I think, but then brought over to the US after she became popular on the X-Files.
-
Haha! Well, then, this will be even more spooky... Since Mira kinda reminds me of Gillian Anderson!
-
What about Tea Leoni, and Brianna? Kinda sorta maybe?
-
The anti-Chewbacca. I think he's pretty cool. I had avoided him in the past, but in this playthrough, I decided to use him as part of my "Brute Squad." Melee damage is superb, if you can ignore the howling.
-
Looks great!
-
You could always do a Force Memory and Identity Reassignment on her, and let her run around in new adventures until one of her old nemeses confronts her and reveals the wicked truth!

Any reason to pick consular over sentinel?
Vashanti replied to cab00se's topic in Star Wars: General Discussion
I'm going Consular this time also, with only Dueling and no off-hand saber (well, maybe way down the road). I like Consulars, though. Probably because I'm used to playing Mages or Wizards in EQ or WoW. The bonus punch to their Force powers, plus (if male) the +WIS bonus to Defense learned from Brianna, plus the extra Force points (especially in the first 10 levels or so), all add up to bingo bango fun for me. But, I get off on watching my Lightning Storm take out entire rooms very quickly. -
I'm a big fan of the Verpine Droid Disintegrator (I think that's what it's called).
-
If by "trust" you, you mean getting her to agree to your offer of help, I've gotten that. I was fully Lightside, I think, and had max Persuade for my level. I dunno if that much was necessary, but that's how I was at the time.

http://www.starwars.com/databank/character...cura/index.html She's a hottie Twi'lek Jedi, played by Amy Allen. "Aayla Secura first appeared in the pages of the monthly Star Wars comic series from Dark Horse Comics. Writer/Director George Lucas was so struck by a dramatic cover painted by Jon Foster that he requested the expanded universe character be turned into a living, breathing Jedi for the big screen. ILM Production Assistant Amy Allen played the role of Aayla in Episode II." She'll be in Episode 3, also. Woo!
-
Hahahaha I've gone super-nerd with this one, unlike my other desk decorations (Warcraft Orc figure, Darth Sidious figure, Scully figure) -- I've actually not taken Aayla out of her box. :"> So, I dunno!

Observation: After playing MMOs for 6+ years, it has been my experience that asking people not to complain about a patch inevitably leads to more complaints, within the same thread.
