I Want To Build

NPC Sunday

Thank you @frauleiiin and @reigrace-keyboardjam for tagging me.

Answering for Crodek because he’s been on the mind lately.

What type of npc would they be and where to find them?

He would be Sith Lord that the player character has to work with for a military mission. He more of a warlord type Sith so it would a military mission.

Crodek can be found on either Yavin 4, or stationed at random imperial military base. Walking around the soldiers making sure everything is in order is one of his happy places.

Yavin 4 is Crodek’s favorite planet because of its beauty and atmosphere. Some of this is his Cathar genes talking because the Cathars home planets is jungle planet. He also likes how strongly he can feel the planet’s ancient connection to the force is, he finds it reassuring.

If they were a merchant what would they sell?

Crodek wouldn’t a merchant unless it had been the family business for generations. In which a case would proudly inherit the business and seriously apply himself to his trade skill until he’s a master at it. His products would only be the best.

This business would be old school weapon smithing or armor smithing, me thinks.

As a quest giver what’s the question they’d give? A one off or a chain? What the reward be?

Crodek would have a question chain. Where he has a slightly rivalish disposition toward the play character through out the question line. The first quest is sending the player character off to do something menial or beneath them. This entirely for the purpose of testing them.

Crodek used this ‘test’ to determine the player capability and if he can can work them to complete the larger quest line’s missionThe fast be failed by certain character choices which terminates the question chain for that character.

The reward is the usual credits and gear. The only special reward is his grudging respect.

This question would be roughly alliance era were he hasn’t joined the alliance and doesn’t think to much of them. Dismissing them as so something more wishful, rather than an actual faction with power.

If they were a companion how do you unlock them? Do they have a specific quest.

Yes he would be a companion. Crodek would receives after his quest line as a reward. What happens is that as they accomplish the mission together, Crodek makes the alarming realization that the player character is not only his equal but perhaps more capable than he is.

There is two different ways he can be recruited depending once again player choices the first peaceful solution. One he agrees to/offer to join the player as result of his growing respect for them.

Or he can fight them when defeated he will join them once again as a sign of respect. He still feels a rivalish, but the respect is very much their.

Can they be romanced? If so what’s the reward?

Crodek is can be romanced! But only by female characters, apologies to the all the good gentlemen. He doesn’t flirt first but once he is flirt with. He is flattered and toys around a the possibility before fully going for it. Once he committed though he stays.

I don’t fully know what reward means so I’ll assume this means how far the relationship goes. He’ll fully commit to the character but he expects them to commit back or no deal. Crodek is more private, so most romance content is banter. With some physical displays of protection and affection. The procterion hauling the character to safely, shielding with his body type of stuff. The affection is meaningful forehead bumps and the rare hug. Kisses are for total privacy in either a special place or declaration of commitment.

As a regular npc what’s their dialogue?

Crodek doesn’t give opinions he gives statements. Which will happen as reponses to what’s going on.

Occasionall he’ll point out acts or honor skill, or to comment about the the lack of it.

There are a few strategy, war or philosophy saying type stuff he’ll pop out with.

He occasionalmy share a fond memory.

Tagging @blackberry-command-cap, @villainship, @califrey, @queen-scribbles and @kemendin if you’re interested in this challenge.

Looks snazzy, his style fits him really well.

All of Dhamari's current outfits in ESO (ten slots is not enough I need more I beg). It's interesting to see the patterns and preferences that emerge when they're all laid out together. For colours, he favours blues, greys, browns, sometimes purples. Stylistically he can go with either short or long sleeves, but always long pants, and he vastly prefers to have his toes free, with an inclination towards Khajiit or generally cat-like foot-wear (something something he's actually a feral cat in sea elf form). He doesn't like flowy fashions OR bulky armour - mobility is extremely important. And he ALWAYS has his wrists covered to hide the scars on them.

This is my attempt at bringing Hot Rod to life.

Turned out good!

SWTOR OC sketches! Pt.3

I've got 3 sketches freshly out of the oven! I drew @nekorinnie's best birb Evo, @catohphm's sweet guy Fernie and @blackberry-command-cap's hippie smuggler Shae'zena!

Evo was truly amazing to draw, I've always wanted to draw him in his Asizi (original @nekorinnie's species) form and I'm really proud of this drawing! I really like Fernie, I think he's a cutie patootie so I'm really happy how he turned out c:! Also, a hippie smuggler? I just had to draw her lol.

Again, if y'all want to color these sketches feel free to do so just be sure to not alter the original drawing (like tracing, removing the signature, etc.) and to give credit! Also if you want the uncompressed file dm me!

Part. 1 & Part. 2

Y'know what screw it I'm here I'm thinking about SWTOR I wanna get out of my shell more SO. Uh. Art? I'm still nervous about sharing but ART! At 2:30am! I'm totally good at this social media thing. 🤣😭

Meet Vega's parents, my smuggler/chaos magnet Reilly Hawkins and the long-suffering extremely loyal Quil Kodral. I have a whooooooole backstory and it's complicated and not entirely fleshed out because I keep changing my mind and the hamster that runs the writing wheel in my brain won't FOCUS ON ONE THING FOR MORE THAN A WEEK C'MON MAN *cough* anyway. Childhood best friends that got separated in their teens, found each other again as adults and realized "hey I think I've actually been in love with you like my whole life", went on a whole crazy adventure together and decided "let's do this together forever". Quil becomes a spy for the Alliance and Reilly uses her status as the Voidhound/Port Nowhere's captain to help Hylo and the Alliance's smuggler fleet. I love them so much. Closeups under cut because Tumblr crunches my art a lot. Imma go sleep now see you in the morning. 🤣😭

If you see any vague resemblance between Quil's design and the Winter Soldier no you didn't and also I swear I didn't do it on purpose. I don't hate it though? Eh.

For the oc asks: not-so-nice edition : alone for the swtor OC of your choice!

I’ll answer this one for my sith warrior Crodek. When he is alone he tends be pretty still. Doing things like reading, meditating, and just sitting down to watch nature. He likes being by himself.

He grew up with four brothers and his parents so his first (and so far only) time really experiencing loneliness was Korriban. Where he was the special acolyte who got a free pass there this caused him to be a target of other acolyte. Which gave him a lot of anger that he funneled into determination to out preform them.

If he was lonely for long period of time. Crodek would blame himself for ending up situation to begin with. While at the same time he’d contumely rationalize whys and how’s of his loneliness. He’d sort of mentally tear into himself to the point where whittles down his pride enough to go out and get help.

Thank you for the question.

I find comedy to be an interesting way of developing a character, so this question is super delightful. Also the way you describe Zarsha’a humor as subtle has given me the realization that British comedy would perfect for the empire.

51% for Kaayden and one other of your choice.

Literally perfect for Kaaydan and I'll do another one for Zarsh'a, thanks for the ask!

Ask

51%. What kind of comedy does your character prefer? Toilet humor, vulgar, slapstick, morbid, etc.

Kaaydan: Sarcasm, mockery, self-enhancing, occasionally dark humor. Overall, typical smuggler humor lol!

Zarsh'a: Sarcasm and dry humor. Due to her Sith past, she kept a lot of the Empire's mannerisms, so her sense of humor is very subtle. People often don't realize when she's joking and just think she's rude.

Meet Crodek Ger’nok

He is my first Sith. Right now what I know is that his fatal flaw is pride, he is as proud as he because he is capable. Very capable.

Crodek has the rage and passion of sith but he is also quite measured. He just flunked Temel’s prisoner test completely which has dented his acolyte’s reckless confidence somewhat. This ‘failure’ has taught him some strategy at least regards to what sith prioritize.

He doesn’t care for some of the finer points of sith trickery. He believes his sheer skill will compensate for this lack.

This is some serious food for thought.

ya know, chapter one of the Jedi Consular story is actually really sad if you take a lightside path. You have this character who barely gets to be a knight before it’s rushing off and their Masters life is suddenly in their hands and then before they really have time to process that, it’s off to save other Jedi because they are the only one who knows how to save them. The next months are spent fighting your own people who mock, and belittle, and insult you, and your just constantly reaching out and trying and  and it’s not meant honestly because they’re sick but I mean that’s going to wear on a person after a bit, especially a young Jedi who may not even be fully sure of their place in the order yet.

Galactic Standard Time Measurement

60 Seconds = 1 minute

60 minutes = 1 hour

24 hours = 1 day

Galactic Standard Calendar

5 days = 1 week

7 weeks = 1 month

35 days = 1 month

368 days = 1 year

10 months + 3 Fete (Festival) weeks + 3 holidays = 1 year

Fete/Festival Weeks

New Year Fete Week = first five days of the new year (takes place before the first month)

Festival of Life =  five days between the sixth and seventh months. It was marked by parties, get-togethers, and gift-giving.

Festival of Stars =five days between the ninth and tenth months of the year that celebrates interstellar space travel. It was marked by vacations to other worlds most often.

Days of the Week

Primeday (first day of the week)

Centaxday (second day)

Taungsday (third day)

Zhellday (fourth day)

Benduday (fifth/last day of the week)

The Galactic Standard Calendar is based on the luno-solar calendar of Coruscant (from before the official founding of the Empire). It is the ‘standard’ in both the Republic and the Empire for basic measurements. However, there are many, many variations for various species, planets, etc. This is just the ‘standard’ used; similar to measurements of weight, etc. 

Basically, this is not the ‘only calendar’ but the one used most often by governments, the military, etc. to be the ‘standard’. I thought it might be useful for people writing or roleplaying in the Star Wars galaxies to have a rough idea.

NOTE: There is mention in some sources of a 12 month/368 day calendar, but it doesn’t mention length of weeks, months, etc. other than ‘30-31 days’ so basically seems to be a ‘real life calendar’. I’m not 100% sure which is considered ‘canon’ so I choose to list the one that was a bit more ‘different’ for fun.
