SWTOR easter eggs

There's also this Trooper's companion ... Elara Dorne.

And there's an officer called "Doren", I think, both on Dromund Kaas and perhaps on Balmorra as well (but I'm not sure about that anymore).

"Dorn", by the way, means "thorn" in German language.

 

The agent thingy that makes you choose your adv. Class is Dorne's father...

Okay, I missed that. I guess the Empire stuck him on Vaiken Spacedock for life as punishment for his daughter's betrayal. Rejoin the Eternally Glorious Empire Elara and we shall let your father leave the Spacedock!

 

All hail the Empire!

All hail the Dark Council!

All hail the Emperor.

This isn't so much a reference as it is a hidden conversation, but:

 

 

There's a Sith Lord the Jedi Knight rescues on Belsavis as part of their storyline - some blond dude, I don't remember his name. After you beat the cow-people-looking-things that are holding him captive, he'll stick around and you can debate him a bit on some of the finer points of Force philosophy. It's easy to overlook because the cursor will NOT change to a speech bubble when you hover over him - another good reason to be a compulsive left-clicker!

Where?

 

Um . . . not sure exactly. I recall coming across them while doing that quest that involved destroying 5 terraformer machines, and I recall them being near the bottom of a set of steps that went up towards a building, not too far from the Imperial base.

In the Jedi starting area on right after you create your character, there is a guy who took a blaster bolt to the knee.

 

There is a kitty on Alderaan that'll chase your mouse droid. Found a vid of that, I'll post.

 

 

More importantly I read somewhere recently that it was asked of the devs if all Easter eggs had been found. They said no and posted a picture of inside the bounty hunter ship. This was ages ago.

 

 

More recently it was said that one easter egg was only accessible by one imperial class. It's probably nothing, but I was bored today and was going to try to research and find, as I have nothing else to do.

Because both are P-38's with a scope?

 

That's where the similarities end though, since the scope design is different, the placement is different and the kingpin blaster has more added stuff than the megatron toy.

Conjuring some necro ... :D

 

I don't know whether this has been posted before, but

 

- in the name of Gault Renow is very well hidden the name of a gaulish car manufacturer : Renault

 

- the name of the beast of burden / mount called "Luggerwahl" basically means "luggage-wale, around a few corners ...

 

That "Lugger" -> "Luggage" is nothing I need to explain.

The word "wahl", however, needs a tiny bit of explanation : "Wahl" is a German word literally meaning "choice" or "election". Take the h away, then you'll have the word "wal", which means exactly the same as the English word "whale". So, the Luggerwahl is just a "Luggage-Whale". ;)

I found a few more references to Indian mythology :

 

Rishi : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rishi

Juggernaut & Jagganath : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juggernaut

 

Ashoka , not to be confused with Ahsoka from The Clone Wars (note the switched letters "s" and "h" ) : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ashoka

Shaak Ti is a character from AORC, The Clone Wars, and ROTS : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shakti

 

Veeroa Denz , the name often reminds me of the Varroa mite : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Varroa_destructor

 

The Counselor story on Coruscant has one "member" of the Noeticon called "Nomi Da'Boda".

This character was very likely meant to be Nomi Sunrider, of which apparingly the name cannot be used within games : http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Sunrider_naming_controversy

 

Vima da Boda, an female heir of her, lives during the times of the comic series The Dark Empire, which is considered as Legend right now. http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Vima-Da-Boda

 

Coruscant has a few more interesting persons :

 

- Dooce Everton - linking to both the soccer/football team of FC Everton , and to the Pinkerton detectives firm

- Lobacc is someone in a tavern on Coruscant, linking towards the only, and of course non-canon (George Lucas didn't want that) Wookie Jedi : Tyvocca (of the time just before TPM) and Lowbacca, from the Young Jedi Knights story line.

- Fez Burba looks a bit like someone from the Cantina on Tatooine Luke visited so much later : http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Braconnor_Bakiska/Legends

- of Ozurist ( I often think "he is an ozurist !" ;) ) I could only find an entry on the name of Ozur Toti : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ozur_Toti , but he could also be just a tourist. ;)

 

Fideltin Rusk is a bit difficult to decipher. "tin" means ... well.. tin ;)

and "fidelis" means "true, faithful", if I interpreted it correctly.

And "Rusk" sounds too much like "rust" for me to ignore it. ;)

So, I interpret his name as "true, faithful, rusty tin". ;)

 

Master Gnost-Dural seems to be a similar thing : Several words fused together.

The Greek word "gnosis" seems to mean "knowledge", but I don't know the Greek language, so I#m not sure about that.

"Duro" [male] / "dura" [female] are, however, word I know from the Spanish language. There actually exist an area in Spain called Extremadura.

So, now you know where the name of the Duros species comes from. ;)

I therefore interpret "Master Gnost-Dural" as "Master of the hard facts" / "Master of the hard knowledge".

 

Chancellor Janarus - that's obvious, January is in there, but also Janus : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Janus

Darth Jadus - another obvious case : There are the words "jaded" and "Jade", the gemstone, in it https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jade
