Good points! I guess there’ll have to be a lot more ‘science’ to the undertaking and a whole new facet of aerodynamics to meet. Forward propulsion is a definite problem there, thanks for catching that! It might be fixed with engines in some cases but it’d always be either fighting or in harmony with gravity pull. And finding the right points…[Read more]

Hello there XD

I just saw the topic title and decided I’d pop in. I’m also as SW nerd. Like nerd to the max maybe. I also have a fanfiction and it’s been so much fun doing research for it on Wookiepedia lol

@this-is-not-an-alien
Well from what I know which is little, gravity pulls. When two gravitational fields meet, you get the hover ability. The catch is forward movement. To “surf” on the border of the two gravity fields, there must be continued movement of some fashion or the surfer will become stranded. Another problem is there would be no safe…[Read more]

(Sorry it took a while)

Rookie dodged several shots and leapt over the make-shift barricade that everyone was hiding behind. With the number of gunners they had now, they were just barely keeping the droids at bay. Wave after wave of battle droids pounded their forces, and they were weakening.

“Our distraction won’t las…[Read more]

@winter_rose I also like My Little Pony, Avatar: The Last Airbender, Lord of the Rings, The Eagle of the Ninth Chronicles. And yeah, I’m really trying to make my character likeable and someone audiences can relate to and root for. I’m also super protective and want to take care of my clone troopers!

@jenwriter17 That’s ok, I was a star trek fan…[Read more]

Bo’ glanced at the king. He was having trouble keeping up, but the three knew they all had to hurry in order to reach the ship before the separatists found it.
As they hurried they were careful to dodge droids and wolf people. They couldn’t compromise this any more than they had to.
A nearby explosion sounded, the king jumped and Gryphon…[Read more]

Here’s my perspective on that question:

Episode IX was a cool movie. It had visual appeal, great acting, a complex plot, and emotional intensity.

But it had a really high standard to reach for, and some just don’t think it got there.

I think one problem was that the makers lost Carrie Fisher and had to do a lot of rewriting. I don…[Read more]

What’s everyone’s opinion on Episode IX? I’ve heard about half and half; some saying it’s fabulous and others saying it fell flat. Thoughts?

Hello, @blenkiness ! I love Star Wars too!

(but I’m actually more of a Marvel fan please don’t hurt me *hides*)

@blenkiness

Greetings, fellow Star Wars nerd!

Heh, heh, (nervous laughter) Self-inserts aren’t all cringy! (I mostly say this because my current fan fic’s MC started out as a self insert…) I’ve tried to develop her apart from my own personality, so hopefully she’s acceptable as her own character. And it’s a fan fic, so it’s not like anyone’s…[Read more]

The air was stale and suffocating. Solstice squirmed, trying to get in a more comfortable position. Even with her small stature the shaft was cramped. Goane must have had it even worse than her, but he made little complaint.

“Where are we going?” Solstice asked him.

“The energy source,” Goane grunted. “If I’m right, it should be pretty clos…[Read more]

Goane slashed through droid after droid with Solstice at his side doing the same.
“Uh-oh.” A droid muttered.
“Jedi?!” Another cried.
Then they were silenced.
Goane jumped up on a small ledge and looked around. They had yet to be discovered by the other droids and wolf people. He slinked over to a vent and gestured for Solstice to follow him as he…[Read more]

Solstice and Goane crept around to the back of the factory, careful to avoid the watchful eyes of the droid sentries and wolf-people.

The Padawans dashed forward and crouched against the side of the building, directly underneath an unsuspecting wolf-person standing on the catwalk above. They waited in tense silence until he moved on, and then…[Read more]

Jaina paused as Goane’s voice echoed through her head. Her eyes widened and she hurried to her cousin. “Zeinli!!”
Zeinli dodged a blast and turned to her cousin. “What?”
“Goane and Solstice found a droid factory, and they are going to shut it down.”
Zeinli’s eyes widened too, but she nodded.
Jaina spoke again, “Do you think that they can do it?”…[Read more]

“We have to get in there and shut it down,” Goane said, and Solstice nodded in agreement. She carefully studied the layout and posted guards of the factory, as Ivaylo had taught her to do.

“Which side is our best bet?” Goane asked.

“On the back wall I sense only two wolf-people, and… I’m not sure how many droids. Maybe eight?” Solstice concen…[Read more]

Goane’s eyes widened as a large structure came into view. “What in the name of bantha poodoo firepower is that?” He murmured, glancing at Solstice.
She shrugged, “A factory?”
His purple eyes moved back to the structure. He nodded, “This doesn’t look good.”
“Should we go back and tell your master?”
Goane paused, “No… I can tell Jaina…”
He did…[Read more]
