Star Wars Fan Art
The TOR Community continues to amaze us with their talent, and RiaStarchild is no exception. Check out these gorgeous Star Wars and anime-inspired art from Ria’s Star Wars Pics thread. Ria says she started drawing a long time ago, and her newer drawings are usually her own creations or requests from friends and or forum users. You can also see more of Ria’s artwork on her deviantArt page and The World of MeRioS website.
Star Wars Fan Fiction
Throughout the years, fans have been inspired by Star Wars to create intriguing fiction and roleplaying opportunities. ArikVandar initiated a roleplaying story, Insurrection, which focuses on the planet of Onderon. The Onderon citizens are uprising against the recent takeover of the Sith Empire. Rumors say that the Jedi may be behind the rebellion and the Empire is sending out a task force to squelch the citizens.
You can enjoy reading Insurrection and other Star Wars fan fiction in the Roleplay and Play-by-Play forum.

I'm enjoying these. Keep it up. |

i have a theroy... maybe jedi and sith are playable but dont count as a class. i hope im right cause that would mean more classes. |

Jawa's are awesome |

Not meaning to step on any toes, but does anyone else find it slightly silly that there are guilds trying to recruit and we arent even aware of the release date? |
|
I do, not just because we dont know the release date, but also we dont even know what the game plays gonna be like! How guilds will be set up, how you'll spend "credits", and even about the other classes/races. Heck we dont even know if they'll have mounts (I wouldnt doubt it though). So yes I do find it silly, but it is best to get to know the guild mates you'll be spending time with or just to take a look at all the guilds. Besides when open beta comes out it'll give us a good look at the guild system (most likely). |
