Here's a revamped version of the darkside Exile image I posted a few months back:

...and I'd add that in KOTOR2 you actually have more of an opporunity to develop your character's past than you did in KOTOR1. Through various dialogs about the war, and the "hologram flashback" scene. More interactive flashbacks I think would have definately added to the game. Especially one near the end of the game, when on Malachor V or perhaps a nightmare as you're in hyperspace heading there, of your activating the Shadow Mass Generator.

The base character model was in Poser. I rendered it in 3dsmax and then composited everything in PSP8. The background is a KOTOR2 shot.

Since there's an already existing art thread. A second Exile render, this time lightside:

Explosions do create. All of the heavy elements were created in the shockwaves of supernovae. If it wasn't for explosions there would never have been planets, or the elements for life. Anyway, the idea of the possibility of something coming from absolutely nothing such as the case of virtual particles or universes is something a little uncomforting for some people.

I thought that was a possibility too or it might be a foreshadowing of Luke sensing his friends in trouble on cloud city in ESB. Another point about Palpatine's grand designs is who created anakin or how was he conceived? When Palps tells the story of plagueis he says that plagueis found a way to create life from the (ugh) midichlorians. In ep 1 qui gonn describes anakin as having been born of the midichlorians. Is this a coincidence due to GL not noticing continuity or does it have a deeper meaning? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed this. If Palpy was behind Anakin's conception, it might explain his obsession with Vader's eventually supplanting him as a worthy Dark Lord of the Sith. It also explains Palpy's weakness in his trusting Anakin, as he expects his perfectly created and groomed Sith Lord to not betray him. (at least not in a non-Sithy way)

Looking at only the first Star Wars movie, how would you have written the sequels? Be at least semi-serious. Based off of the first movie, I would have had a continuation of the Luke-Han-Leia love triangle as Luke continues to aid the rebellion to win Leia's heart while Han attempts to weasel his way out of it despite knowing that he's now a wanted criminal by both Jabba and the Empire. Luke decides to continue training as a Jedi and is forced to delve into the lost Jedi archives on the capital world of the Empire itself. All the while being hunted by Vader, who realises that only someone who could command the Force was able to destroy the Death Star. Vader's obsession to defeat the last of the Jedi leads to his hunting down the rebellion, but leaving the core worlds weakened and open to ambitious Admirals who wish to seize the Imperial Throne. Functionally Vader is the true power behind the throne of the Empire. Han and Leia travel to the capital to settle his old debts with several crime syndicates, only to find himself having to escape from their clutches as they attempt to turn him in. Luke then learns a dark secret, and prepares to travel to the world of the Sith where he will learn the same secrets of the Force Vader used to destroy the Jedi order. Han escapes from the capital world, and has to evade the Imperial fleets descending on the capital to seize it. All the while Luke lands on the barren and acid-scorched landscape of the Sith homeworld and walks into a forgotten temple of great darkness. Vader is waiting for him, and the lightsaber duel ends with Luke mortally wounded. ...

I can't say if he'd be offended, but I do know Robot Jesus would be offended by your blasphemous prayers. Repent meatbag, before the end!

Statement: It appears that many of the organic meatbags in this thread are unwilling to accept their true nature, prefering the illusion of being special or unique. They think that their meatbag status is due to some divine decree. Conclusion: It's time to show these meatbags how wrong they are, by putting an end to their hosility permanently. Robot Pope, prepare the Machine Crusade!

It does make sense for the generic Sith and the bounty hunters to claim you are the last of the Jedi. However, for Sion to state this I think was a little odd. It would have been better if he had ominous threats such as: "All of the Jedi are dead. Including your precious Exile, Kreia..." Throughout the game Sion would refer to the player as being 'dead,' which players would assume it is a threat. However, it is because Sion knows the Exile is a wound in the force and is curious as to the rumors about this dead piece of forceless flesh being the last of the Jedi.

Well don't tell that to the conservatives. They've been trying to turn Reagan into such a figure. However, for most people writing the history books they've failed at it.

That would have been an interesting plot device. A little cheap for the players, but still interesting. Revan returning to Malachor and continuing his/her training under Kreia to remember his/her past to find a way to fight the True Sith. Revan then becomes consumed by the teachings of hunger, which no force user can survive. The Exile, not having a connection to the force, is able to become the threat to the True Sith that Revan could not. It would be very cheap to the players of the first game though...

Revan went searching for the one thing that made her happy in her childhood: Rosebud.

You should mention how Govenor Tarkin showed his support for Greedo's family until he was silenced by the Jedi.

I can now see what Yusanis saw in Master Kae... (w00t)
