How hilarious is it that Kreia finds out Atton is a former Jedi hunter/torturer/murderer and is immediately like “Perfect. Babysit my Jedi.”

One of the best parts of KoTOR 2 to me is how it subverts the typical Star Wars trend of having the main character be the center of the universe. In most things Star Wars, especially the movies, everything revolves around the main character, and granted, that is partly because they will be our main protagonist, but also it specially focuses around them. Anakin Skywalker is the single most important person during the prequels, almost everyone plans involve him in some way, and his actions define almost everything else that happens. This trend continues in the other trilogies, with the Skywalkers being the main focus.
KoTOR 2 is similar in some aspects to this, the Exile is undoubtedly the center of the story, and their actions influence everyone else to the extreme. The subversion of this is that the majority of the exile's influence doesn't take place during the game arguably. It happens far before it.
The Exile is responsible for almost every one of their companions major neuroses. Your actions have defined everyone, if not always directly, and played major parts of shaping them into who they are by the time of the game. The way it plays out, it's like a sort of "afterword" of one of the movies. You experience the fallout of the actions and decisions you made, the result of being the center of the universe, and it is very rarely pretty. KoTOR 2's companions were broken by your actions, and now you have to mend that break.
Basically, I really love that KoTOR 2 shows the how being the most important person ever would really play out, and its incredibly destructive consequences. Its a really cool subversion of the typical Star Wars formula.

Been keeping busy the last couple weeks with custom orders!
First up was this 6” tall sitting Deadpool plushie!
Next up was a little Darth Maul keychain! I really wasn’t sure if I could pull this off on such a small canvas but I’m really happy with how he came out.
Lastly I finalized my Miles Morales Spider-Man keychain. I did make a black suit as well as a navy blue suit as my hubs absolutely INSISTED that his suit was dark navy blue and not actually black. 😆
Now I’ll be working on restocking some of my regular stuff for upcoming markets but these were definitely a fun change from the usual.

Started watching “Star Wars: The Clone Wars” in order to prep for “Ashoka” last week. WHY AIN’T CHA’LL TELL ME THE JEDI (AS A GROUP) ARE KINDA TRIFLING?! Like, we’re expected to believe in this honorable Jedi Code, but then, when you break it down, it makes no sense! “Go to other planets and save people from being punked and create and ensure alliances, but don’t make meaningful connections if it’s not for political gain.” It’s crazy to me! In addition, I’m biased because I’m really only invested in the first two trilogies and the main character arc that I latched on to was that of Anakin Skywalker. Seeing his descent from beloved Jedi Master, friend, mentor, husband, and soon-to-be-father to being one of one of the WORST Sith Lords to ever do it was so SAAAAADDDD!!!!! All he wanted to do was protect the people he loved and he felt that he couldn’t do that as a Jedi because of said contradictory honor code. Then, apparently because the Force is extremely neutral, once a Jedi takes a life (even if necessary because WAR), their connection to the Force becomes tainted and eventually dark. I understand that the Jedi want to maintain moral high ground, but wouldn’t that mean the Dark Side would have to have a conscience? From what I’ve seen thus far, the Jedi don’t unalive captured Sith, but if the shoe was on the other foot, the same Sith would torture and possibly unalive captured Jedi if they were in the way of a goal (most of the time, they are).
P.S. Still waiting for somebody to off this filthy so-and-so right here ⬇️🤦🏾♀️🙄😒👊🏾💥:
