Lawkmt3 17 Posted January 31, 2017 First of all let me start by saying I'm a carbonite encrusted fossil from the now defunct KOTOR Fan Media site where we had: Modding, Fanfic, FanArt, and even some clubs dedicated to Carth, Bastia etc. One of the most popular topics on the forums was finding out how many different ways people tailored both games to make their own unique KOTOR experience. So, I thought it might be done here too. It's pretty simple... 1. Describe your PC. Classes, Alignment, Romance (or not), Appearance, Backstory, and what they are best and worst at. 2. How do you use your NPC'S? 3. Planet Order. And so on... I'll start with my Revan just to get things going... Revan LSF: Programmed Name, Gia-Sade Solaris. Programmed age, 28. Starting Class: Scout. Jedi Class: Consular. Weapons: Melee and Hand-to-Hand Expert. Vital Stats: Height: 6'0'' Weight: 135 pounds. Hair: Long and Black. Eyes: Bright Aquamarine Skin: Pale. Lightsaber preferences and Styles of Combat. Paired Sabers MoF with Solari Crystals and Kryat Dragon Pearls. Also an expert with Single blade, and Saberstaff. Level of all forms: Expert. Primary Form: Niman. Fallback styles: Soresu and Shien against ranged enemies. Makashi, Ataru, Djem-So against Melee enemies. Juyo used against Sith Masters and Lords. Fighting style: A slipstream where she all her knowledge of combat styles, Echani, Deralian, Mandalorian, and Jedi, with dance steps, twirls, spins, and acrobatics to take control of and move with a fight. Awful with: Blasters and explosives. Romance: Carth Onasi. Backstory: Both Revan and Gia-Sade Solaris come from Deraila, a planet with a culture juxtaposed with an enlightened cultural and educational environment (Like Classical Athens) with an ancient Celtic martial tradition. They are Empathic humans, who have complex social rules on physical contact, and an obsession with following the proper etiquette of wherever they may be in the galaxy. In other words, they value "the proper way" of doing things so as to not offend others, and they expect others to treat them the same way. Highly advanced, they never strive for "perfection" just continually striving to become the best selves they can be. Very adaptable, pragmatic, and above all disciplined! Still, their Empathy leads them to form strong attachments to others, which they cannot break. As such they tend to be loners. NPC's: Bastila: I take her out when I know there will be a lot of Lightsabers, and on Tatooine. Canderous: My Ranged Weapon Tank! Take him when there's lots of shooting, and whenever there's another Mandalorian out there. Carth: My Pistol Jockey turned Captain Cuisinart, by the time I get to the Livathan. HK: Duh, My other Ranged Tank. Take him when I need to Laugh or Infiltrate. Jolee: He's my healer, my teacher, and the Grandfather I always wanted. He gets out everywhere I can! Juhani: Give her a Lightsaber, let her go kill bad guys. I take her everywhere but Tatooine. Mission: Any place that needs sneaking around with locked doors. T3-M4: My cutie is great in Sith Military Bases! Zaalbar: The Prince of Kashyyyk is a melee tank. He's not great against Force Users, but good on Maanan against crazed Selkath! Planet Order: Used to be- Kashyyyk, Tatooine, Korriban, Manaan. However, now that I have the K1R I'll use Kashyyyk, Tatooine, Maanan, Korriban. Well, there's my Revan! I tried to upload her picture but I couldn't... it's here at www.jodhaaakbarfan.deviantart.com/gallery56642963/My-Jedi-and-Sith Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted January 31, 2017 Well; I'll share a little Revan I always name Aslace-Lorriane, it's gender neutral and fitting I think for those of you whom know the historical context. The Exile I generally name after myself; if it's female it's an amalgamation of my name and my favorite SW character. Male, simply my last two names. F: Luci Kenobi M: Dionysus Logan As for the rest; I generally just roleplay based on whatever version of the main character I have in my head at the time, Revan thankfully is now well spoken like they always should've been thanks to PC Dialogue Moderation so I can play him/her now finally as the pragmatic leader TSL describes; light or dark. I adore K2 and it's multitude of ways to play, especially with mods like TSLRCM and intelligent AI but I nearly always play as a Consular consistently. I feel like the Exile is more so a character I can make entirely my own. In K1 it's not terribly necessary to be good at anything other than combat, awareness, persuasion and treat injury. You can accomplish nearly anything with these three and a party. Although I never bother with stealth or demolitions in any playthrough. In K2 stealth has more advantages, Jedi Watchman comes to mind as does Sith Assassin. Demolitions I still never use in the main PC- everything else it's good to have some level of skill in. Which can be done effectively if you know the game well. There's infinitely more ways to play K2 IMO. & It's my favorite. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lawkmt3 17 Posted January 31, 2017 Part pf my grandmother's family comes from that region! they were kicked out of "France" for being Huguenots, and stayed in "Germany" for a while before hitching to the "Colonies" in the New World. I love your Revan's name! I'm completely anti-canon when it comes to the genders of either game. My LSExlie is as follows: Name: Jok'Khab Solaris Height: 6'4'' Weight: 195 Pounds Hair: Black Eyes: Silver/Grey Race: Human, Deralian Empath Class: Guardian/Battle Master/Master Romance: Visas My Exile like my Revan has the same culture and empathic abilities. Throughout his Exile he's had to do a bit of everything to survive so he's a Jack of All Trades out of necessity. Also like Revan, he's got an addiction to learning. As such, on his journey through TSL he learns everything he can from everyone, and everything around him! So he's a master of all weapons, and survival skills. He also does NOT consider himself a member of the Jedi Order, because like Jolee when they refused to aid the Republic they *left him!* His exile was just the final straw. His moral compass is always pointed to do good, and Force or not, that's what he will do. Lightsaber: Silver double-bladed saber. Primary Style: Shien/Djem-So, Expert in all forms! NPC's: Atton: Pistol Jockey, turned Melee infiltrator. Bao-Dur: Melee Tank! G0T0: BORING! Handmaiden: Melee and Unarmed Combat. HK: Same as KI Kriea: She is basically on ship most of the time. But she is one of my very favorite characters EVER! Mandalore: Everything I can get him to do! Mira: Everything I can get her to do, except dance for Vogga. If Brianna is so willing why force the other girls to do it? T3-M4: So Much I can't count! Visas: She is the single most important character in TSL for me. Since this is the first time I'm Playing the TSLRCM with the Droid planet I'm doing everything in Order. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Xuul 224 Posted January 31, 2017 I always try to play and then end up modding instead. I keep meaning to finish Dantooine in Kotor 1... That being said, I always try to "immerse myself" in the game when playing, acting not based on what I think, but what fits better in the game. Fulfilling a story can always make a game more enjoyable. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lawkmt3 17 Posted January 31, 2017 Hello Mr. Xuul! I'm honored. Love your youtube channel but I can't understand the technobabble most of the time. I think because I panic. I agree with you though. I can't play Revan as a Male, I can't do DS on either game, because just hacking people and being mean isn't enough for the story. I've even got backstories for the entire Jedi Council members we see. Which is kind of why I started this thread, so we can all share our unique Universes with each other.
