ShadowPaladin V1.0

Heres the whole thing for those who dont like links. Part XII: The Feeding of Malachor V Time frame: 3,955 - 3,953 B.B.Y. Period name: Knights of the Old Republic 2: The Sith Lords It is a period of uncertainty across the galaxy. After a long and vicious battle in the deepest area of the STAR FORGE, Dark Lord of the Sith DARTH REVAN succeeds in destroying his ex-apprentice DARTH MALAK. After recovering from the duel, Revan seeks out the secret dark outposts he established during the Mandalorian War. Journeying to the Outer Rim in the EBON HAWK, Revan is focused with a single purpose: locating the source of the dark power on MALACHOR V. Those awaiting Revan's arrival, including members of the Sith and the Jedi, are shocked when he fails to return from this pilgrimage. It is unknown whether Revan destroyed or resurrected the primal Sith forces on this forbidden planetoid. The turmoil of the previous decade has had a detrimental effect on the surviving members of the Jedi Order. Disillusionment and despair persists in the wake of the war both throughout the Old Republic, and within the Jedi Order itself. Furthering exacerbating the malaise is the corruption of Darth Revan and Darth Malak, and the untold harm their actions had brought to the Republic. These three reasons were cited by many the impetus for the disbanding of the Jedi. While the Jedi mull over their troubles, the battle-hardened Mandalorian hero CANDEROUS ORDO returns to the homeworld of DXUN, seeking to rebuild his clan, and find a new purpose in the galaxy. Through prowess and cunning, he rises to eventually become Mandalore. EDI MASTER KREIA, Revan's old mentor, is still haunted by guilt, wondering whether it was her teaching that resulted in Revan's fall to the dark side, and begins to search for him. Sensing his last location, she travels to Malachor V, but is unable to shield her emotions, and is completely consumed by the dark side of the Force. She is lost to the Jedi, spending the next several years on Malachor V, learning its secrets, and eventually becoming The master of the Sith academy there. Guided by Kreia's influence, Sith assassins once again begin to emerge silently from Malachor V and strike at isolated Jedi across the Republic, capturing some Jedi to turn to the dark side, and slaying those that resist. Taken to the dark side world of Malachor V to be fed to the planet's dark energies, these Jedi husks create even more assassins and DARK JEDI, feeding the planet's hunger.

Don't know about that it looks like a LA website to me. Like he said dont shoot the messenger.

Sorry it took so long couldnt recall where I had seen it. Chapter XII of the chronicles. http://www.lucasarts.com/games/swkotor_sit.../indexDark.html how much credence that has I have no idea. I just read a huge article about how the EU and the movies exist in some sort of weird null space of each other.

Exile has more force points and ton of force related powers that Revan dosnt. Think that answers the question.

I dont think anyone would want to kill you.

This one ? Sounds plausable especially given her training methods. I dont know about letting her live to suffer. He must have sensed she had regained her link to the force however weak. Which would ultimately make her a threat. I saw Sion a bit like a puppy even if you hit it on the nose with a newspaper when it does something wrong it will still seek your approval and wag its tail when your around. Not that I condone it, but if you take that to extremes it will become hostile to everyone else. But very subservient to it's master. And that sort of fits with Sions behaviour ,even if he did "bite" Kreias hand.

Maybe, or she could have ducked behind a box and gone invisible. She may have fed him a line about how she was using the Exile to draw out the Jedi and was still one of them because at that point he thinks the exile is the last of the Jedi. The only problem with that little theory is that I have no idea if Kreia thinks he's the last Jedi too. If he was that enamoured of her as a teacher he might just buy it. In a twisted sort of way she would have kept her word too.

As long as one is male and one is female I can write my KOTOR III. My DS female was probably my favourite Exile.

Oh I think at that point they just wanted her to suffer as a weak old woman. Since she tries to pull her lightsaber and cant you have to assume they either cut her off from the force, or did something similiar. There are also those "indignities" she mentions. Obviously they underestimated both her hate and resolve. As for why he didnt kill her on the Harbinger not a clue. Espeically as doing so would have cut the exiles force nuts off figuratively speaking.

Are you reading what your typing. The hate you have for a non existent thing is quite frankly disturbing and if I were you I would book yourself in for therapy. Or get your parents to do it for you if your not old enough. Maybe tell them to sell all your SW stuff while your at it.

Speculation maybe but hardly wild. It never goes into how she manages to escape either. So she must have had a trick or two up her sleeve from the start. The plot may be all that counts to you. But the character is the biggest part for me. And a different PC means a different character and a host of different possibilities. Something to do? Well since this is just a case of opinion and ours differ , it's not like there will be a resolution. It's been interesting though.

When did this turn into Gender Wars?

It was passed by LA you dont have a leg to stand on. It dosnt make you right it makes you dellusional. Seeing yourself as some sort of guardian of SW continuity. Obviously their idea of continuity dosnt include adding something that looks stupid.

Yes it's really easy to swing a sword and talk at the same time. I'm sure she planned on getting wounded. Thats how she hooked the exile from the start. She's too smart for it to be anything else. That depends on your point of view. Everything changes the journey. Every random act every choice makes one journey different from another, even if it's along the same path.

Before he does I want to know how the rider stays on in a concussion blast.

She was about to and that will break stealth, even if your halfway across the screen when you click it. He senses her, but he still cant find her. And thats more likely to do with the master apprentice thing like when Vader senses Obi Wan. Dont know how the D20,rules work but in WEG it was easier to sense those closer to you than complete strangers. Not really, everything you do changes the journey. If people wont accept their own characters being used at the whim of the writer I see no reason to accept it for anyone else. In game terms they are just as real as my character.

When you attack stealth drops thats why she appeared and he chopped her hand off. She probably planned it that way of course. Yes it matters a great deal. If I didnt want what I did in the game to matter I would be reading a book or watching a movie.

I just added the "Mandalore Needs You" credit for finding the picture goes to Gorth.

Bit of poetic liscence granted. But his awareness is near nil according to Kreia. I've never tried planting mines in that battle. But they should cause damage the same as anything else, he's not immune or something is he? But if I got the option to do that and failed, then it still makes sense when Atton loses, because he has lost in a gameplay way. Rather than a cheap way.

Probably not totally happy. But KOTOR wasnt really anything like the movies, more like the clone wars cartoon in how it plays. As long as it makes sense by the rules then it wont bother me. On the other hand Atton carving his way through the Dark Jedi like butter on Dxun and then being killed without a fight which I can then finish without breaking a sweat would most certainly. It's to much of a challenge to the reality upto that point. If they had made Sion really strong on Korriban so that you were shaving off a cm of health per blow that might have done the trick. Because then when you meet Sion and he's killable (although not so easily as he was one would hope) then Attons part in it becomes clear he's weakened him in some way although it may not be clear how , it still makes a lot more sense. On Korriban he went down so quick that when Kreia said run I was a tad incredulus. More like You grab his arms, you grab his legs and we can kill him on the ship in orbit.

Not really. If you smack him down and he keeps getting up engage stealth and hide behind a pillar. I'd have planted so many mines that it took him days to pull himself together again. It was kind of funny when I met Sion you get this line about striking him down a 1000 times or something. I'm very glad it wasnt literal.

I accept that. But when I am playing a game the only reality I am interested in is that one created by the rules. If the rules dictate a small rock can destroy a planet, then thats the reality. Whether or not I find it difficult to accept. Thats exactly the same thing as with Atton though. Your just throwing his life away to tell the story without paying attention to the reality. If you tootle along five minutes later and kill Sion in a couple of blows then Attons death is cheap. If what I do in the game with my character and the other characters has no ultimate point, then I may as well be watching a movie or reading a book.

If you have any sort of "respect" for SW you will hate it but it's hillarious. Someone is sure to make a lego movie even if it's by cobbling together the cutscenes here. Right from the outset when the ship blows up and the two pilots sit in mid air in suprise before falling to the floor in a heap of lego parts. To being followed around by a 3p0 unit which has had one of its legs and it's arms blown off. There is stuff in there you would never get away with in a more serious game, but since it's all lego it's just really really funny. Obi Wans stealth routine and the look Qui Gon gives him , as well as the general Obi Wan played for laughs stuff. On finishing the level you can free play which allows you to switch characters. One of those being Jar Jar Binks, who you can then guide into a forcefield, hail of blaster fire or just switch to Obi Wan and chop him up with your lightsaber. It's more satisfying that it should be. I am so going to rent this when it comes out. (w00t)

Likewise, but it's a case of the rules needing to more reflect than film rather than ignoring the reality of the game rules just to make the game more filmlike. In a movie the only reality is whats on the screen, it's up to the viewer whether or not they buy into it. But game rules are far more regular and shouldnt be broken just to tell a story. I doubt anyone would accept it if your PC got to Kreia and then just died after a short cutscene. After all shes a lot more powerful than you in the SW sense.
