May The Invisible Hand Be With You - (Star Wars CK2-Style Quest)

Reader mode
Well, if I ever needed more inspiration to finish up Riphath's Disciples of Twilight omake and then write another one for the Battle of Kalee? Here it is. Good stuff.

Provides a couple more "canon stations" for his side of the story to visit too.

At the back, Koliya saw an opportunity, and shouted out "Anyone close enough to me, we're pushing forward and providing Goraah support!" over the comms before igniting his lightsaber and charging forward

Once he got close enough to the berserk Hutt to provide support but far enough away to stay out of mace range he ignited his lightsaber

So he ignited his lightsaber twice? :V

Dr. Snark said:
"Hope you don't mind getting some reinforcements. Commander Rex moving in with the 501st to support you," came a call over the comms.

"It's Captain, sir."

"Hello there."

And Ciaran needs to be the two-faced goddess. She even has different masks (Kaleeshi mask, and her usual let's pretend I don't have eyes and am simply a humble philanthropist mask) to represent her different aspects. Assuming she doesn't crash and burn after falling into being Darth Nihilus 2, Ciaran, Goddess of Destruction and Healing seems about perfect. In her Destruction aspect she is less a warrior and more force of destruction rolling across the battlefield, and then she switches to fixing everything up, from the bodies of the broken, to the damage caused in battle, to even economic repair.

This. Is. Brilliant!

I like to imagine that Goraah's entrance into the battle looked like how Sauron did in the Lord of the Rings movie.

That scene was exactly what I had in mind when I wrote his entrance, in all sincerity.

*Slight Facepalm* Thank you for pointing out those errors.

(I obsess over typos and the like and sometimes I end up missing more glaring issues.)

If igniting your lightsaber once is good, then igniting twice must be twice as good.

Is this some kind of innuendo? It sounds like innuendo to me.

And it being a Previous QM Request to boot.

In fact, this has been the second request that has been handled in this Arc so far. The first one was in the last post where the 'Tarkins Folly' Interdictor used its gravitational well generators to steer torpedos off course. That one was from the TIE Fighter anime video.

Also, the requests were made in August. Dr. Snark has this uncanny ability to keep things in mind for a LONG time.
 
No, it legit stuck in my mind...mostly because when I read said requests I went "that's cool/hilarious enough that I have to do that."

Or more accurately, even if I did actually write it down somewhere I would have had to remember making the note in the first place :V

EAW did it first, but the video made it look way more stylish. :V

In my defense, I allways played the Zann Consortium (and in the Awakening of the Rebellion mod the Black Sun) instead of the Empire or Rebels.
Also, the usuall reminder (as in, every few weeks): This quest exists because I liked 'Forces of Corruption´ a lot.

This is also a co-reminder that Forces of Corruption is a great game and you should all totally play it as soon as you can. :V
 
So this is apropos of nothing, but I've been listening to Battlefront II banter videos and I've been wanting to write down some for this quest's characters. Feel free to ignore this at your leisure...or come up with some banter of your own.

Ciaran and Asajj:

Ciaran: Asajj, back me up!
Asajj: You're about to do something foolish again, aren't you?

Asajj: Don't fall behind!
Ciaran: That's my line!

Ciaran: You take the ones on the right, and I'll take the ones on the left.
Asajj: I have a better idea: we cut down whatever shoots at us and not even bother.
Ciaran: You're no fun, you know that?

Asajj: Don't get ahead of yourself.
Ciaran: Look who's talking!
Asajj: I'm not the one eagerly charging headfirst into the fight.

Ciaran vs. (Canon) Grievous

Grievous: Ah, such a beautiful lightsaber for my collection!
Ciaran: You'll have to pry it out of my cold, dead hands then.
Grievous: I would be happy to grant your request!

Grievous: You think you can kill me!?
Ciaran: Grievous is already dead. I'm just putting down a walking corpse!

Ciaran: Where's your pride as a Kaleesh!?
Grievous: My past means nothing to me anymore!

Ciaran: Consider this a final mercy.
Grievous: Your pity makes you weak!
Ciaran: In that case, call it revenge for the Kaleesh you once were.

Ciaran: You think Rondaes would want to see you like this!?
Grievous: Why don't you ask her in the afterlife?

Ciaran vs. Vader

Vader: Your hunger will consume you.
Ciaran: And your rage has already consumed you.

Ciaran: I made a promise, Anakin. I intend to keep it.
Vader: Anakin Skywalker is dead. I have killed him.
Ciaran: I won't let you hide from who you are.

Vader: You are too much of a threat to my plans. You must die here and now.
Ciaran: At least you still have some respect for an old teacher.

Vader: You truly believe you can defeat me, Traya?
Ciaran: Why don't you come find out, Vader?

Ciaran: You realize that you're just a slave, right?
Vader: My power is immeasurable. No one can stand before me.
Ciaran: Funny. You don't seem particularly free with all of that "power."

Ciaran vs. Kylo Ren

Ciaran: This is adorable! Shouldn't you still be in school, boy?
Kylo: Let's see if your bite is as good as your bark!

Kylo: The past will die by my hands.
Ciaran: You seriously think you can close your eyes, cover your ears, and pretend the past doesn't matter?
Kylo: I refuse to allow the galaxy to be held back by ghosts like you!

Kylo: I'm not afraid of some empty title!
Ciaran: Why don't I show you what it means to fear the name "Darth Traya?"

Kylo: The Jedi, the Sith...all of it will be reduced to ash!
Ciaran: Both of them have tried for thousands of years. You aren't going to be the one to finally kill the Jedi and Sith.

Kylo: I won't be beaten by someone blinded by the past!
Ciaran: Says the boy cosplaying as Darth Revan!

Ciaran vs. Darth Caedus:

Caedus: I will bring peace to the galaxy.
Ciaran: By killing your family and becoming a tyrant?

Caedus: You learned nothing from Vectivus.
Ciaran: The fact that you're saying that proves you're the one who learned nothing.

Ciaran: Funny that you say you're a pupil of Vectivus when you killed your own aunt in cold blood.
Caedus: She was a necessary sacrifice for the sake of the future of the galaxy.
Ciaran: Did you miss the part where Vectivus actually cared about his family?

Ciaran: This is almost hilarious. You're like me if I was an idiot and tried to solve all of my problems through brute force.
Caedus: You merely refused to take the measures necessary to bring the wars around us to an end.

Ciaran: Did you ever actually talk to Vectivus?
Caedus: I learned everything I needed from him.
Ciaran: I'll take that as a "no."

Caedus: I am the man who will finally bring peace and stability to the galaxy.
Ciaran: No, you're a fool who's deluded himself into thinking his atrocities are "for the greater good."
Caedus: So you claim to be the righteous one here?
Ciaran: I'm not deluded enough to think that what I've done makes me a saint.

These are all perfect! I never thought of how Kylo's whole "Let the past die, kill it if you have to" thing would play so well off Ciaran.

God damn. Vader in all his dark glory just crawled out of that ash pit on Endor for the sole purpose of coming over there and thumping that boy until he can uphold the family smack talking reputation.

Asajj(Picks up Ciaran): There. Now are you going to let that wound heal or am I going to have to tie you to a bed?
Ciaran: ...There are rumors enough about us already, and talk like that doesn't help.

... fuck it, here's my random two cents:
Grievous vs. (Canon) Grievous

Grievous: "What did Dooku do to you, warrior?"
(Canon) Grievous: "Let me show you, faker."
Grievous: "Silencer would have a field day with you."

Grievous: "I must thank Ciaran for saving my body and soul from your fate."
(Canon) Grievous: "Your reliance on a Jedi proves your weakness, fake."
Grievous: "And your ignorance was just demonstrated."

Grievous: "Your grief and madness consumes you."
(Canon) Grievous: "You spit on the grave of your wife and ancestors!"
Grievous: "I shall not listen to the ravings of a heretic!"

(Canon) Grievous: "You abandoned our hate for the Jedi!"
Grievous: "I merely saw the far larger threat."
(Canon) Grievous: "And gave up on your just revenge."

(Canon) Grievous: "Your flesh is weak. Your army is weak."
Grievous: "The Abysswalkers, organic and droid alike, will stand atop a galaxy."
(Canon) Grievous: "Not if I kill them first."

(Canon) Grievous: "What spectre stands before me?"
Grievous: "A more worthy God Of War."
(Canon) Grievous: "You are no Ashen Son."
