Advanced White Eviscerating Crystal, 45k.

Haha! Love this. I lol'd and my dog looked at me funny. Just popping in to say hi - glad you're back! Looking forward to what you have in store for our baby companions, especially the ones we haven't seen yet. I'd love to see how Baby Arcann (and Baby Ghost Thexan) interact with the rest of the companions, and if Mister Khem will (try to) eat them. Also, hello to all familiar (and unfamiliar!) names and faces I'm seeing here

Haha! My scoundrel healer is the daughter of my JK and Doc, so I can't even imagine what kind of advice Doc would give her on that kind of thing - though I will say that ultimately, Avareyne does take after her father in more ways than just going into the medical profession ...

You're most welcome! I love hearing about other people's headcanons, and having the opportunity to share some of my own as well. It sounds like Andronikos has a similar role in Naelah's and Andrina's stories. He too taught Andie how to shoot, drive a speeder, and fly a starship. The Sky Princess was named for her (and her ship, the Star Rover, for him). And he might have suggested that she go into the smuggling business (but, still being in the military, couldn't exactly help her start it). I do understand not wanting to even think about that daddy thing ... my sniper (Alleyne) and vanguard (Laralise) are in the same situation and I get moments of at times while I'm playing through their stories. It's probably worse for Lara, who has her dad around from the very beginning, though I have to say that first scene on Ord Mantell plays well as seasoned-veteran Dad telling his newly graduated daughter how things really work in the military. Back on topic, though - I'm replaying a bunch of stories (RL has been incredibly busy, but will be a lot better after next week, so I'll really get into it then) and am trying really hard not to resort to my usual arm-candy playstyle so I don't advance those romances before meeting Theron. I'm going to eventually have to redo a bunch of stories, especially those in the second-generation who had absolutely no business "romancing" daddy/uncle (but did anyway, because it was years ago and they were on a different server and/or had a different place on the family tree at the time). I hope to have screenshots to share with you soon enough. I'm enjoying the ones you all are posting and hope to be able to give a little something back.

I'd really love to see this too, even though I have a feeling that going forward, romanceable companions/NPCs will all be bi so they can be romanced by everyone who'd like to (and it might be easier from a dev perspective to do it this way). However, I'd like to, at least once, try to flirt with a male companion/NPC, only for him to tell me something like, "I'd be the luckiest guy in the galaxy if that did it for me ..."

Haha, me too! - but I still can't help but (privately) feel overprotective whenever I see Quinn hate. I love your character concept for Naelah! It would be weird, I agree, to have her dad on the ship with her ("no, honey, you can't make out with that Darmas guy!"), but she could potentially learn a lot from him as well. As for me, I totally want Andronikos on my smuggler's ship - he's Andrina's half-brother and I knew immediately that I want to have him on her ship (if it's at all possible). In my headcanon, they had a bit of a falling-out over him marrying a Sith and turning his back on the Republic and the family, so maybe this will be a chance for them to smooth things over after all these years of not speaking.

Signed. Let's get to work on this. Together.

I like healing because I enjoy playing god with the lives of stupid people. The pretty red circle on the ground is (most often) not a buff. I'm kidding. Mostly. In all seriousness, though, being a healer makes me pay more attention to the smaller details of a given boss/raid encounter, so I can anticipate how the other players in my group might react to any given boss/fight mechanic, and prepare and act accordingly. In doing so, I also get to learn the play styles of my fellow group members and kind of get to know what to expect from them. For example, I had this one sorc guildie years ago who (a) constantly pulled aggro from the tank, and (b) refused to bubble himself or use whatever healing abilities he had at his disposal because "it wasn't his job to heal," so I knew that I had to babysit - I mean, pay more attention to whatever stupid he might pull that day. That, to me, is what makes the job interesting. Frustrating sometimes, but still interesting.

AKHadeed, I love the pic! I admire everyone who can draw; the best I can usually do is a stick figure, and even that is debatable. Xonell, best of luck to you! Hope we will see you back sooner rather than later, though. I too am disappointed to have not heard more about Theron (and other people too, but mostly Theron). I know it was supposed to be mostly about the Sacrifice trailer, but it would've been nice to hear something. Even the thing with Malgus they kind of walked back, so I don't know what to make of that, either. I haven't been able to find too much else about what happened at the cantina (I've read what Dulfy has posted already). Is there any place where we can find out more about what they said there?

(Incoming quote spam because I'm a few pages behind and I want to reply to a few of you!) I've wanted to shoot her in the face since I met her on Taris. Even back then I thought she was short-sighted and intolerant of people who didn't see things the way she did. Haha! I'm on Shadowlands mainly, but I have a few alts on other servers and have been trying to find an excuse to roll one on Begeren Colony. If this becomes a thing, I might have to come on over. I'm pretty sure my Andrina would just about die happy if the first thing she saw after waking up was Theron. I would love that. Like you said, it's his turn anyway to save us.

Thank you! I sincerely hope Theron does come back, and that we hear something from the SDCC Story Panel about where he might be (which would also show us that our voices are being heard by the devs!), but like I've mentioned before, his coming back might be the big in-game story reveal partway through, which would be cool as well. If that's the case, the suspense will probably kill me.

My guild at launch was stuffed full of DS Sith Inquisitors and I wanted to be different. So I rolled a SW and decided she'd be LS. I didn't know anything about the story when I made that decision, but now I'm so glad I did. The moment I met the fat buffoon that is Baras, I knew I'd made the right choice story-wise. I thoroughly enjoyed trolling him

I just got it last week! I'm only a few chapters in right now, but I'm loving it so far. I've got another GS (currently L31) from 12x whom I can probably pair with Theron. Because of the 12x I think my affection with Corso is somewhere around 1000 - thus leaving me open to romance Theron with impunity in FE.

The voice talent is one of my favorite things about this game, and I love getting to know all the VAs through their characters here. I also really enjoy seeing our VAs' other work - I just saw Lydia Leonard (our Lana) on Broadway last month, and she was fabulous as Anne Boleyn. (Nicholas Boulton, our Lord Draahg, also had a supporting role in the show.) Amadahy beat me to it, but yes, Tara Strong is Risha and Holiday; Simon Templeman could certainly lend his voice to a new character, seeing as Grand Moff Kilran isn't really saying much these days. As for my VA wishlist? Hm, off the top of my head - Sean Bean, because reasons. Though that would also mean that his character will probably die ...

I hope so too! Andrina (my GS) was instantly smitten with the guy when they met in Forged Alliances I, even though Corso was standing right there (I switched him out pretty quickly for HK-51). Since then, Andie/Theron has become kind of a thing in my headcanon (and not "just a fling" either - I'm still kind of working out the finer details, but as it stands right now, Theron > Corso). Maybe they're purposely not telling us, so it's a huge reveal when he all of a sudden turns up mid-story and is like, "Hey there, been looking for me?" Hey, I'm not supposed to have a reason to like Gul'dan ...
