I like to think that Maul specializes in short, high intensity combat, and was pretty spent there. Or perhaps a bad trait matchup? Scissors to a rock to some degree?

Spoiling for anyone who doesn't want spoilers.
Examining the fight, Qui-Gon insta hits Maul, but because his strength is weak, doesn't really hit that hard. Obi-wan has a similar issue, but doesn't always hit maul. Kenobi has a +18 to hit, but Maul's AC is 24. When Obi-wan and Qui-gon win, its usually because Obi-wan has been consitently hitting and Qui-gon has high rolls.
Maul's mastery of Juyo allows him to insta-hit his highest level opponent upon round 3 of the fight. At which point, he does massive damage. 2d14+15 is pretty damaging. It's usually here that he kills qui-gon, but is at low health. Kenobi usually finishes him off.

Sebulba and Anakin First Encounter - By Reader for Fun
- Location
- California
Felt like making an omake, please forgive the poor organization, I'm posting from my phone
First ever omake, so any critiques would be welcome
Sebulba was having a good day, as per usual.
As a champion pod racer he lived a pretty comfortable life on Tatooine. Twi'lek and Togruta slaves fawned over him and lavished him with attention. He had enough money from sponsors and prize money for even kantooine paddy frogs to make regular appearance in his diet, despite the price being driven up by the Hutts. Nobody ever messed with him, not anymore; His rivals throughout his career had a tough time surviving a season. This paired with his temper and physical abilities as a dug and a tatooine native gave him confidence in even the seedier places on the planet.
He was searching through the many shops in Mos Espa for some... "Non-regulation" parts to up his pod racer's performance when a small figure bumped into him.
It was a blonde human child (he'd call him small if the boy wasn't at eye level with the dug, his stature being something that's always burned the belligerent dug), seemingly unafraid after he just ran into the Great Sebulba! He knocked the child over spitting insults, asking what does he think he's doing!
The stupid brat answers that he's looking for parts to tinker with, like the idiot could possibly have any mechanical skill and at such a young age! Sebulba kicked him away again, spouting that he's worthless, and that he better think twice before messing with Sebulba the Dug. He walks off, ego bolstered after abusing the little poodoo, ignorant and uncaring of the harsh gaze of the child in the dirt behind him.

Short, but then most first omakes are. Especially forgivable if you really did write this on your phone. Good sure of star wars slang, and other references to the source material. Not much else to say since its short enough that there isn't much content to judge.
Good job

Very well written. I feel like you captured Sebulba's character well. Not quite long enough to earn a chosen point, but consider it canon and Sebulba's first interaction with Anakin Skywalker.

Funny idea if we dip into the dark side a bit, sabotaging Sebulba on the next boonta Eve race so he go Kaboom!
I hope my idea of Sebulba having low self-esteem comes through

@Umi-san Bromance is the friendship turned brotherhood love between two dudes, romance is well...romance. And we have fics on ao3 or fanfiction if Obi-Wan/Anakin is your thing, but seeing as in canon Obi-Wan practically raised Anakin, I've always found the pairing as iffy as Qui-Gon/Obi-Wan. Like people do realize that while the age difference might not be a deal breaker in either pairing, it does involve an adult who raised the kid and then in those stories got with that grown-up kid they raised? I've read some myself, not gonna lie, but none of them really resonated with me and most of them I just backed half-way through. It's a very awkward situation and no matter how good the plot of those fics, I just can't read anymore when they get into the romantic parts.
I much prefer my Star Wars fics where they focus on the bonds of friendship/brotherhood/parenthood that forms between characters, because that's what I liked most about Star Wars, its theme about family. And that people can be redeemed as long as they want to, even if they stray and might need help now and again to remember that.
And kudos to you @Arthellion for knowing your limitations and being firm, but respectful, in letting us know from the beginning.
Tattoine. Twi'lek and Togruta, since they're names of a planet and two races respectively.
cut the was, since it has no place there.
you used the pronoun he to talk about Sebulba and Anakin, so they could easily get confused for one another before another read tells you who's who.
just change it to (he'd call the boy/brat/child/human small if they weren't at eye level)
here it would sound better if you placed blond before child and get "It was a human blonde child..."
put a comma after insults and cut the and, since it makes it sound better.
You used again twice in a sentence. Try to not repeat yourself in the same sentence, google synonyms and just pick one that sounds good and makes sense in the context.
Otherwise good job on your first omake, @Reader_for_Fun!!

You decided that you would spend your time working towards the goal of building a droid. You loved your mother and would do anything to make her life easier. To build a droid you would need parts. You frowned and mentally kicked yourself. If only you had taken time to get parts when you were in the junkyard at Gardula's palace. There were so many parts that could have been used to make a droid. You shook your head. It would not do to dwell on past choices. Perhaps Cliegg could help?
"You want to build a droid?" Wizened eyes looked at you. The older man rubbed his chin and said,
"I'm sorry Anakin, but our quota is a little short this year and I need to purchase some extra power converters for the harvesters. Maybe next year."
You frowned. Your reaction was to:
(Personality vote. The decision is made regardless, but this is a chance to shape Anakin's personality. Please note that there are positives and negatives to each of these. Just because a temper tantrum is typically viewed as negative by adults, doesn't mean it will have a negative result for a child. Just keep that in mind)

[] Reaction: Have a Temper Tantrum
[] Reaction: Suppress your anger at being denied and accept the decision
[] Reaction: Write in: Must be submitted and approved before allowed to vote. I encourage write-ins for these kind of votes however.
Nothing you did changed the outcome. And so you considered another way to get the parts. Your moisture farm was only a short speeder ride from Mos Espa. Perhaps you could accompany Cliegg on his next trip to the city. You might be able to find away to make some money or even find the parts.
A few weeks passed before you had your chance. Cliegg agreed to let you ride with him into town.
The year had gone quite well for you. You had done extremely well in school and had even managed to build a droid! Your mother had been so proud of you and touched that you had made a droid just for her. C-3P0 proved to be an excellent help to your mother in her daily duties. Cliegg had taken one look at the droid and shook his head in befuddlement. You thought you heard him say something to the effect of, "And he's only seven..."
However, there was one issue that had eluded you. Owen. All of your attempts so far to befriend your step brother had failed. Today, you decided, you would confront him.
It happened at the school yard during free time. Owen sat with his two friends: a shy girl named Beru, and a Rodian named Greedo. You approached the three and offered a smile,
"Hi!"
The three looked at each other in confusion for a moment before Owen glared at you,
"Go away!"
"No," You shook your head, "Owen, we are family. And family sticks together. I'm not going away."
"You're not my family! You're just a stupid slave with a stupid mom!"
Anger flared in your chest, but you tried to remain calm,
"Owen, its not our fault your mom is dead-"
The blow came unexpectedly. A punch to the right eye. Despite being a year younger than you, Owen possessed meaty fists. You fell backwards to the ground in shock. He had hit you!
"Shut up, slave!"
The anger once again flared and you,
pulled yourself off the ground. Owen appeared ready to speak, but you launched yourself at him, throwing punches.
Owen was unprepared for your attack and you landed several blows to his face. A cut appeared above his right eye, but you paid it no heed. The only thing you could feel was the intense anger flaring in your chest. You were surprised when you were tackled by Owen's friend, Greedo. The Rodian was fiesty and pinned you as he yelled in a foreign language you did not understand.
"Stop it! All of you stop it!" Beru screamed. Greedo apparently heard her because he quickly pulled himself off of you. You glared at the Rodian from the ground. You could've taken him. To the side you could see Owen silently crying and you felt:

You walked home alone that evening. Though most students took the speeder-bus home from school to avoid the dangers of the Tatooine desert, you sensed you would be fine. You frowned and kicked a rock as you walked. You felt dejected and hurt. You had only wanted to make amends with Owen. How had it gone so wrong?
Your thoughts were broken as you felt something tug on your mind. You paused. How could something tug on your mind? Nonetheless, you knew it as clearly as you knew an upset stomach. Something was calling you. You turned from the normal path and began walking off a beaten trail. You felt no fear despite the jagged cliffs that soon walled you in. You would be fine. Nothing living would dare come this way. How you knew this you did not know, but know it you did.
A cave lay at the end of the ravine. Darkness...but also peace exuded from its depths. You continued forward without fear. The ground inside the cave became carved stone and green foilage covered the ground. A waterfall lay at the back of the cave, gushing clear water. On the right, an altar exuded a blue light and a calming presence. A small, pyramid shaped object seemed to be the source of the light and presence. To the left, another exuded a red light and a thrilling sense of adventure.
Personality Vote:
You first walked towards the:
[] Altar: Red
[] Altar: Blue
Upon reaching the altar, you reached out to touch the pyramid shaped object. Your fingers inches away from the object...
And suddenly, you awoke in your own bed with two pyramid shaped objects in your hands. A sense of excitement coursed through you. Something had changed.
+Gained Varya Holocron
+Gained Sidreona Holocron
It had been a good year for the most part. You had built a droid, acquired some fascinating objects, and performed exceptionally well in school. Your relationship with Owen had deteriorated however.
Your completion of building a droid had inspired you. Setting goals is a good thing. You've decided to choose two new goals for yourself!

Prologue 2
You smile as you look at your list of ambitions. You truly wanted to accomplish them. When you had worked with the droids at Gardula's Palace, you had been fascinated by their personalities and how their wiring could create entirely different beings. You began to wonder what your droid would be like. Would you create a battle droid? An assassin? You paused. Mom had mentioned her hip hurting the other day. Perhaps you should start small and build a protocol droid to help her around the farm. You'd need to get the parts, but it shouldn't be too hard.
You looked at your next ambition. Owen still refused to talk to you aside from snide glares. He was a chubby boy and the glares only made him appear more adorable. At least, that's what your mom had said. Mom said to be patient with your younger brother. You glanced across the room to where he sat; the younger boy stared intently at his tablet as he debated what to write for his ambitions. He glanced up and caught your eye. A sneer crossed his face and Owen turned back to his tablet. You frowned. Owen was family whether he wanted to be or not. You'd have to help him see that.
Your final ambition was something of a pipe dream, but you could not help but write it down. To become a Jedi Knight. You had heard how the Jedi Knights were the guardians of peace and order in the galaxy. They had really cool laser swords that could cut anything. No one could kill a Jedi! You smiled as you looked at the final goal on your list. You would become a Jedi. No matter what!
Bernice approached your desk and smiled at your three goals. She spoke in a soft, but warm voice,
"Those are excellent ambitions, Anakin! I'm proud of you!
"Thanks, Ms. Bernice!"
The following year in Bernice's class were wonderful. You truly enjoyed the topics you studied. Apparently, you scored really high on several aptitude tests and Bernice would take time to teach you advanced material. Some of the other students were a little jealous of your relationship with the beautiful woman. You were known as a bit of a teacher's pet, but you did not really care about other's opinions.

A few weeks passed before you had your chance. Cliegg agreed to let you ride with him into town.
Mos Espa existed as one of the oldest and largest cities on Tattooine. It would be easy to get lost in the city. And naturally, that was the first thing you did. You had told Cliegg that you would stay in the marketplace and explore. Cliegg motioned at the droid who had accompanied the two of you to act as your baby -sitter while he bartered with the other sellers. The droid was an older model; and in your haste to explore, had quickly become separated from you in the crowd. A brief moment of panic settled into your gut and you frantically searched for the droid while calling out for the droid.
"HJ-5?!?
Despite your calls, no one came. You assumed the loud noise of the crowd had drowned out your voice. A firm resolve fell upon you. Somehow...you knew everything would be okay. A smile graced your face and you set your mind to the task of finding droid parts. You weaved through the crowd and made your way to the back of the parts section of the marketplace. Numerous large piles of junk lay behind the shops. With a grin, you began searching.
You hit the jackpot! One of the piles possessed all of the parts you needed to begin work on the droid. You put the parts into the backpack you had worn and quickly headed to where Cliegg had parked the speeder. Aside from an encounter with a surprisingly rude Dug you made it to the speeder without any issue. Cliegg's face when he saw you approach was first filled with relief and then anger.
"Anakin! I told you to stay with the droid! Do you know how worried I was?" Cliegg shook his head and motioned for your to get in the speeder, "I don't want to hear a word until we're back home."
You silently climbed into the speeder a sense of:

The schematics on the holonet could work, but somehow you intuitively knew how to build the droid. By the end of the year, your new Protocol Droid was finished...save for some plating.

The year had gone quite well for you. You had done extremely well in school and had even managed to build a droid! Your mother had been so proud of you and touched that you had made a droid just for her. C-3P0 proved to be an excellent help to your mother in her daily duties. Cliegg had taken one look at the droid and shook his head in befuddlement. You thought you heard him say something to the effect of, "And he's only seven..."
However, there was one issue that had eluded you. Owen. All of your attempts so far to befriend your step brother had failed. Today, you decided, you would confront him.
It happened at the school yard during free time. Owen sat with his two friends: a shy girl named Beru, and a Rodian named Greedo. You approached the three and offered a smile,
"Hi!"
The three looked at each other in confusion for a moment before Owen glared at you,
"Go away!"
"No," You shook your head, "Owen, we are family. And family sticks together. I'm not going away."
"You're not my family! You're just a stupid slave with a stupid mom!"
Anger flared in your chest, but you tried to remain calm,

Failure!

The blow came unexpectedly. A punch to the right eye. Despite being a year younger than you, Owen possessed meaty fists. You fell backwards to the ground in shock. He had hit you!
"Shut up, slave!"
The anger once again flared and you,

Roll: 8 +1 Wis=9
Failure
GM Note: You're 7 years old at this point. Owen is six. Neither of you are trained fighters. Therefore this fight is going to be a simple DC of how well you do. Later fights will have actual Character sheets pitted against once another.

"Stop it! All of you stop it!" Beru screamed. Greedo apparently heard her because he quickly pulled himself off of you. You glared at the Rodian from the ground. You could've taken him. To the side you could see Owen silently crying and you felt:

You walked home alone that evening. Though most students took the speeder-bus home from school to avoid the dangers of the Tatooine desert, you sensed you would be fine. You frowned and kicked a rock as you walked. You felt dejected and hurt. You had only wanted to make amends with Owen. How had it gone so wrong?
Your thoughts were broken as you felt something tug on your mind. You paused. How could something tug on your mind? Nonetheless, you knew it as clearly as you knew an upset stomach. Something was calling you. You turned from the normal path and began walking off a beaten trail. You felt no fear despite the jagged cliffs that soon walled you in. You would be fine. Nothing living would dare come this way. How you knew this you did not know, but know it you did.
A cave lay at the end of the ravine. Darkness...but also peace exuded from its depths. You continued forward without fear. The ground inside the cave became carved stone and green foilage covered the ground. A waterfall lay at the back of the cave, gushing clear water. On the right, an altar exuded a blue light and a calming presence. A small, pyramid shaped object seemed to be the source of the light and presence. To the left, another exuded a red light and a thrilling sense of adventure.
Personality Vote:
You first walked towards the:
[] Altar: Red
[] Altar: Blue
Upon reaching the altar, you reached out to touch the pyramid shaped object. Your fingers inches away from the object...
And suddenly, you awoke in your own bed with two pyramid shaped objects in your hands. A sense of excitement coursed through you. Something had changed.

It had been a good year for the most part. You had built a droid, acquired some fascinating objects, and performed exceptionally well in school. Your relationship with Owen had deteriorated however.
Your completion of building a droid had inspired you. Setting goals is a good thing. You've decided to choose two new goals for yourself!

Well the befriend Owen did not work out well. @Arthellion Jedi Knight and Befriend owen are showing up as ambitions despite us selecting them already, should they be off the selection list?

Faster Learner, Teras Kasi or Echani Master, that leaves 3 points. If we are going to keep trying to befriend Owen grabbing the +3 charisma will help by giving another +1 to the roll, maybe spend the last 3 on stats, +2 str, +2 con and +3 cha. That helps with both making friends and raising the stats of our weakest stats.
Ambitions- to meet an angel for one of them. The other try to find something else we can accomplish. Maybe Ace Piloting?
Then practice our piloting this year along with either trying again with Owen or moving on to Clegg.
