Because a rancor wasn't scary enough. Nooo, we gotta give them Force lightning and lightsabers, too.

If I doled them out separately it'd be something along the lines of:
-Two questions about the quest I have to answer truthfully (for each)
-Since there's no character in particular it applies to, I'd have it give three +10s to future rolls (for each)
-Third cool thing that I can never think of dammit (variable on request, so basically 3 small things vs. 1 big thing, would be the only thing really affected if you held off on it)
So...actually now that I'm typing it out it really doesn't matter either way for 2/3s of the options. Go figure. Anyway, that's how it goes.
Which of those is five telepathic teddy bears in a trench coat again?

Hypothetically speaking, would finishing all the story achievements qualify for increasing Ciaran's rerolls to 3?

Egonil. Who I'm still iffy about canonizing because of the aforementioned fact that "he" is five teddy bears in a trenchcoat. I mean, it has basis in Star Wars canon to some extent, but it's a bunch of teddy bears in a trenchcoat.
Hypothetically speaking, would finishing all the story achievements qualify for increasing Ciaran's rerolls to 3?
Given how many of them there are, I'm going to say "yes, because that is a legitimately serious undertaking and the number of actions per turn has gone up again since I granted the second reroll." As of this writing there's over 100 story achievements, so if you got the whole set complete I'm perfectly willing to say that you deserve the right to ask me for something like that!

This is Star Wars. I think I made a joke along those lines about how Jabba is renting out his palace from robot hippie spiders and how absolutely insane that sounds even in context.

Great, and who is Gorrah? Search didn't find anything before your post.
And for the record I love Egonil and don't see a reason that he's less stupid than Buff the Hutt the meme.

Ahhh, a typo, that explains it. And also kinda makes my objection meaningless.

All hail Spot. Hades's guard dog is named Cerberus... Which means "Spot". Classic indeed.

So I was looking back on all the achievements we have earned over the past years for the story, dear god there are a lot of them, and I saw the one where we saved Shmi Skywalker. This was my immediate train of thought afterwards: oh sweet she's alive-> wait she can now interact with some of the rest of the cast -> oh god she needs to meet Padme -> wait she's secretly the mother in law -> she can try and introduce her son to this lovely young woman because h should really settle down with someone and give her grandchildren to dote on and spoil -> oh my god she doesn't know that Anakin is married -> dear god Anakin didn't invite his mother to his wedding because he and Padme eloped -> oh well now we absolutely need to see this!!! lol

I've been working one over and haven't liked any of my previous three takes on it.
Fortunately, fourth time will be the charm. Watching the blacklist as gm research is helpful for writing too .

Actually, as a consequence of Padme ending up holed up in Ciaran's base after the Attack of the Clones assassinations, those two haven't married in this timeline. I guess the Undercity's underground urban hellscape just doesn't lend itself to romance the way beautiful Naboo countryside does, specially when there's other Jedi there.So I was looking back on all the achievements we have earned over the past years for the story, dear god there are a lot of them, and I saw the one where we saved Shmi Skywalker.

Well, the romance is still there, in this quest Padme and Anakin are together, but they are not married yet.
Despite that, Ciaran is legally both the maid of honor of Padme and godmother off all her future children...
How can that be possible? The same way Carmen Sandiego stole the Great Canyon, our lawyers are just that good...

No, it's far simpler than that.
She called dibs.
Anyway, any Shmi omake could easily go into the "she's a lovely girl, and I think the two of you would make for a very happy couple" kind of advice instead. Which would probably be equally as entertaining in its own right.
