@TheUnknowable One question, how will R2-D2 travel on a speeder bike? Wouldn't it be easier to transport R2 in a Landspeeder?


Honestly, R2 and C3 could easily stay on the ship. Give Vader something to deal with when he gets there. It could really work to set the new story apart from the original.
[@TheUnkowable] Are you enforcing any kind of post order?


I doubt it, but I'm planning to have Vader show up in my next kind of post.

I don't want to sound like an arse but I didn't think Credits were worth anything on Tatooine.

That's Republic Credits. Imperial Credits probably have more sway.


Delays... Always the delays. One could argue that had these delays not happened the rebels would have been defeated in a matter of minutes. The delays though came from one particular source of agitation. The battle on Scarif... Less than half an hour ago, Lord Vader had stood there, watching as the rebel ship escaped with what he could only expect to be the Death Star plans. A moment later, due to the ineptitude of his crew, or worse, the ineptitude of the officers, a rebel ship had crashed full force into the side of the only vessel capable of pursuit. The repair took over an hour to the engine, not a significant time but far more than preferred when one was in hot pursuit of a rebel vessel. In the rest of the time, Vader had made work of the other rebels on the ship, passing time by torture, or through lightsaber. As another rebel, by this point having surrendered completely to the dark lord of the sith, fell to the floor in two halves, Vader had grown... Bored.

Bored is the right word for all this. In the years since his transformation, everything had become so tiresome. A pattern. Rebellions started, and soon they ended. But Vader all this time had nothing. No true goal in his life. There was nothing ahead of him but another rebellion to crush... "How... Tiresome." In truth, the only entertainment he had these days was the politics. The aspirations of imperial soldiers or generals. Like Director Krennic. A man with so many lofty goals that he'd choked to death on them. Shame to be honest. He fought enemies far more powerful, and when he should have bowed, he barked. Vader would have enjoyed seeing more of him, but some things... Just can't be fixed.

"Is the ship finally ready to begin pursuit?" Vader said, turning to one of the officers who stood besides him. The way he spoke made it clear anything other than a yes would be punished with death.
"Well, just a few more calculations. Over 98% of the repairs are done but we still have to calculate their jump route." The officer said, speaking even faster when he saw the dark lord's hand grip down onto his saber. "BUT, we suspect they took a route that would place them easily on the course of Tatooi-" The blade passed through his neck before even Vader realized what he had done. He turned, looking down to the body without even a hint of sorrow. "Troopers, dispose of the body. We shall make our way to Tatooine as soon as preparations are done."

Another day... Another rebellion.

Finished-ish Vader's profile. Cut the bio somewhat short, since we all kinda know it, and I don't wanna just copy the wiki page.
@Reflection,
Vader is only 41? Dang!


According to the Wiki, he was 41 at the battle of Yavin. He was dead at 46. They're pretty accurate about this stuff.

Name: Darth Vader
Species: Human/Cyborg
Age: 41
Force Sensitive: Yes
Skills: He is Lord Vader. The greatest pilot in the galaxy. Lets list off a few accomplishments, just for the... Unaware.
Master of the Darkside: Vader carries with him the power of the Darkside. The teachings of the Jedi, and all that lies between. Vader is in truth the truest embodiment of the force. Created not by natural birth, but by the complete wills of the force. As a result, he carries within himself the greatest potential to manipulate the world, no matter how broken his body may be. He is a shell of a human being, but what remains is still leagues above and beyond even great jedi.
Master Lightsaber Duelist: Vader is encumbered. His armor doesn't fit. His feet are claws in thick shoes, and his hands... Only one limb really seems to obey him totally. And yet, he is a monster. With the force and his lightsaber he is a wall that nothing can breach. Slaughtering over a dozen in a moment, and facing down greater threats than any before. In a duel he is a master of many variants of Form V, being consistently aggressive. Due to his body being barely human, he focuses his protection almost exclusively to his chest, as nothing else is vital. His form though is truely unique, in that it derives from all teachings, and thus makes itself perfect for nearly all forms of dueling.
Overwhelming Pilot: Vader is greater than Anakin Skywalker ever was as a pilot. He uses the force and his skill in tandem, able to control the battlefield completely both inside and outside a fighter. Controlling his ship with the force while he duels on the ground. It is unlikely he will ever lose in a dogfight.
Equipment: Darth Vader needs only his lightsaber. A red blade, almost... Sinister in some respects. This blade at one point has ended thousands of lives.
Bio: He is not natural. There is no father. There is only his mother, and the force. Born a slave on the planet of Tatooine, he unique even from then. Once could argue that he was... Destined for something great. At the age of three, he began to work in the shop of a creature named Watto. Who claimed ownership over Anakin and his mother. As slaves, they held no rights, only that which their owner felt kind enough to give them. But Anakin made many friends at his age. In particular a set of slave children, much like himself. In truth, he made attachments easily. To his mother, his friends, and those bonds didn't sever easily.

He was only nine when he met Mast Qui-Gon Jinn. A jedi, of course. It was Anakin who helped them when they needed it most. It was Anakin Skywalker who despite being a slave was trusted by a jedi. It was him even more so who won his own freedom. It was even he who won the battle of Naboo. And for all that, he became a Jedi under the wing of Obi-Wan Kenobi. He was special. A slave, born without a father, and trained in the ways of the jedi. His very best friend was even the supreme chancellor. In time... He even found love. For a jedi it seemed there was no rules to stop him. He was a greater duelist! His powers unrivaled! And in a way he was... Destined to fall.

All of these things can be so easily swept aside. We know the story by now. We know of temptation. We know of his anger and rage. We know of the blade that severed his limbs from his bodies and made him less of a man. We know that he is crippled...

What we do not know is the true depth of his evil. A man who once loved and cared so much, lost everything. What kind of pit must that be? What kind of empty hole must need filling? A black hole, unable to find joy in anything. Reduced from man, to mythical monster. He began life by hunting Obi-Wan Kenobi. Former master, now the symbol of his rage. His monstrous form was a result of Kenobi, and he could not rest. He hunted the Jedi restlessly killing, butchering, and slaying many would be heroes in pursuit of one jedi. There was a trap laid, twelve on one. He killed them all, laying their bodies at the feet of his emperor, and finally... He made his first appearance to the public. Darth Vader, killer of Jedi and the fist of the Emperor. In time, he became greater, his image became the face of the empire. In truth, there is no villain greater than Lord Vader.

(I'll write up the rest of the bio later. Just want to get the rest up before I forget.)
Also wanted to know how you feel about the addition of airships or if you wanted to keep your pirates... "grounded"... heheh.


Honestly not sure? I always liked the idea of sky pirates, but since I'm fine adding dragons, I don't deny the appeal of Sky Pirates. I'll ponder it.
Anybody mind if I try making Vader? Just curious.
