It's also the name of probably the most reasonable Sith in the next major era (his primary competition being Lana Beniko and maybe the Warrior and Inquisitor, both of whom could have gone the other way and been cackling loons).

Actually, I'm fairly certain we know for a fact that, for the purpose of this fic, the Inquisitor was Light, as we've heard mention of a Darth Imperious as a major figure of that era. It might have been while going through the history of the Jebble Box? That would make sense, based on Imperious's position. I don't remember exactly where it was brought up but I distinctly remember hearing about Imperious.

I've kind of always thought Light-side Inquisitor made the most sense, too, considering their perspective as a former slave and the variety of Light-side cults and force-ghosts you run into on Dromund Kaas, plus a master that is pretty reasonable (at least during the first, most formative part of their apprenticeship).

Although, I guess the Darth Imperious we heard about could have been a different Sith? During the same era, while there was a fairly solid central authority documenting that kind of thing? It's not impossible the gave someone else the name.

I used the site's search feature, and while several of the QM's posts did come up, none of them mentioned Imperius (I think the search function needs maintenance, it was picking up the word "Imperial" instead of "Imperious).
 
I think we should stick with Ciaran's suggestion to name the Rancor Marr after Visas Marr, the famous Miraluka Sith Apprentice turned Jedi.

Well it's Ciaran who might be a bit obsessed with the era after being mentored by Traya.

"Might!?" I haven't exactly been subtle about Ciaran's obsessions with Revan and the Sith Triumvirate. It's 100% in character for her to immediately go for a KOTOR I/II reference given any possible opportunity.

The only one who recognized it was Asajj, who I'm sure has had to put up with Ciaran needing out about the Dark War before.

Ooooohhhh yeah. Asajj has learned to tune Ciaran out once she starts going on about Traya or Nihilus or Revan or, well, you get the idea.

Anyway, while I'm here, need to acknowledge one overdue thing and one amazing thing.

This does help sell the extremely positive reaction the peoples of Ossus had to the Watchers, that's for sure. Canon, +10.

Got bored, searched for quest, found quest, read quest (halfway), saw lack of fanart, saw achievements section, made this. @Dr. Snark consider this a long LONG term overdue repayment for your own omakes in my quest way back when :3

Will finish up the other achievements slowly in time~

...its so beautiful

also i think that image of nutes face plastered over the get out of jail free card from monopoly is the best thing ever

though confused sheev is a very close second

Anyway, since you're planning on making more of these (something I am eagerly looking forward to), I'm going to give you the option of getting multiple smaller fanart bonuses as they're released or one bigger one for the entire set. Either option is fine with me, it's more of a "how long do you think it would take to finish the set?" kind of question. If that makes sense.
 
Time for another omake count!

In the last twenty-five pages, we added a total of 2 omakes, and spent 50 bonuses for our Turn 29 rolls, resulting in a 'bank balance' of 78 bonuses.

Publicola said:
So basically, add 1 bonus to our next omake count.

In the last thirty pages, we added a total of 2 omakes, resulting in a bank balance of 81 bonuses.

Not gonna lie, I'm kinda worried about our rate of omake production here -- the last fifty pages have only seen 4 omakes total. We still have our 'rainy day' fund, but we spend 50 bonuses last turn, so it won't last forever.

On the other hand, we have seen some more fan-art, which is awesome. Speaking of: did @Skywalker_T-65 ever claim his reward for the Interdictor model?
Dr. Snark said:
Anyway. With that out of the way I'll offer one (technically 2) out of a suite of bonuses:

-Two questions I have to answer truthfully
-Turns out Raith enjoyed working on this particular project so much that he's willing to take on an additional contract again next quarter. (That one's not free though. He's got a business to run after all!)
-Since this is a Unique VesselTM she'll need a Named Character to captain it so that they can dramatically shout orders during battles. As such you'll get the ability to create a captain for this ship. I'll throw this one in for free if you're interested, otherwise I'll have to leave it to the whims of the omake writers.

I didn't see his response indicate which one he wanted.

Also, since @Alyuna seems to be MIA, @Dr. Snark did you want to just assign a bonus for their fanart?
Dr. Snark said:
So, since this is a fanart thing, I'll give you the traditional 3 choices (sort of):

-Martial/Learning Stat boost for HK-47 (I figure ED would appreciate the bonus going to a good cause)
-Ability to ask 2 questions that I must answer truthfully
-Third cool idea that continues to elude me (insert idea here and I'll see if I can make it work)

That would just be poor taste.

Interesting fact though: Rancors are actually fully intelligent beings, they're just primitive and like wookiees can't speak Basic. The Matriarch of the Singing Mountain Clan's rancors is even fully literate. And any intelligent being is, in theory, capable of using the force.

So: New Abyss Walker get!

No no no, we sign him up for the Jedi.

We just don't send in a picture, so they arrive looking for their new Padiwan....

I think we've already stretched the suspension of disbelief far enough with Gorrah and (potentially) Egonil. I need to keep what little credibility I have left, dammit!

That being said I will not deny that the mental images are hilarious in the slightest.
 
And I remember when people didn't believe me when I told them rancors were sentient...

Now we are talking rancor jedi! Soon! Soon you shall all fall completely to the dark side!

Mwaaahahahahaha!

I did like the way you made the Kotor 1 & 2 obsession a character trait of Ciaran.
