SWTOR Headcanon Project, The Forsaken

So, to finally get back in the swing of things. I came up with a fun headcanon project that I'm really into so far. Credit to @swtorpadawan 's Unforgiven headcanon and @raven-of-domain-kwaad 's love for Lord Loyat (and all the shit Ryscha Kine goes through) inspiring this, as well as @serenofroses and @voidendron for getting me into headcanon writing.

Now let's get into it! 'Forsaken' is a codename for a Jedi Strike Team (and eventual found family) underneath the SIS (a bit like the Sixth Line, but not as...religiously militant) that's comprised of 'misfits' within the Jedi Order. I'm still working on the formation, but so far, this is what I got for the main cast.

Artek Sefyr, the Hero of Tython and leader of the Forsaken. After breaking free from the Emperor's influence, Artek frequently tapped into the Dark Side to face against the Emperor during Chapter 3 of the class story. This led to him not being promoted to Master and getting taken off of the front lines, which he was not happy about. However, the SIS took notice of his physical prowess and leadership abilities, offering him an opportunity to put his skills to use in this Jedi Strike Team. Artek easily accepted the role.

Praven, my beloved. Anyway, Praven is here for a somewhat different reason. While part of him has felt somewhat out of place in the Jedi Order, that's not why he joined the Forsaken. Rather, it's his concern over Artek's decline into the Dark Side, worried he'll end up just like Angral. Because of his cool-headed disposition and honorable side, Praven acts as the second-in-command for the team.

Bengel Morr was more or less the first member recruited after Artek. While he had been redeemed following his defeat, he was still very guilt-ridden after the Flesh Raider Uprising he caused. He joined the team as a way to atone for his past mistakes.

Nalen Raloch, formerly seduced with power, now looking to restore his status as a protector of the people. Also tends to butt heads with Bengel up above.

Ako Domi, the former hero of Sullust, now hoping to restore his status as a heroic figure once again.

Loyat here is the newest of the Forsaken. After being defeated by Artek on Ilum, she abandoned the ways of the Sith, later joining Artek in killing her lover/abuser Darth Arho. She's actually a pretty nice gal, but really struggles with her emotions.

Sajar rounds out the team, more or less acting as their 'seer' for lack of a better word. Definitely the most reluctant to violence on the team in fear of relapsing into his old ways. And that's all I have so far. I might add in some more, and I do have a few ideas for non-force sensitive auxiliaries (including Watcher One and Agent Galen), but I can explain those later. For now, what do you folks think?

Some OT3 ramblings

Artek and Theron's relationship was a 'first time' for both of them. Theron, it was his first time with another man, which ties into my "Theron is bi, leaning towards women" sexuality headcanon. Haven't decided if he's had casual sex with men before or not, but in my headcanon, Artek was the first man that Theron got serious with. For Artek, it was his first time being genuinely in love with someone (he'd been with Ranna and Kira before, but that was more him thinking with the other head lol).

Artek actually did have a brief fling with Kira in Chapter 1 of the Knight storyline. They were pretty playful and flirtatious with each other, but Artek did promise to Orgus he wouldn't be romantically involved with anyone anymore, after he revealed his relationship with Ranna. It really ate him up inside, especially after Orgus died. That caused him to break off their relationship and keep it platonic. It wasn't until KOTXX where they realized just how much they missed each other and eventually got back together.

Haven't fleshed it out yet, but Kira and Theron did start working together a bit during KOTFE's timeskip. Both of them were able to bond over shared experiences and how much they missed Artek. While they might've thought about getting together, nothing came of it until Artek came back into the picture.

Artek is the tallest of the three (tho with Theron, it's only by like an inch or two), and the most muscular (he's more just ripped or 'average' rather than full on beefy). He's capable of carrying both Kira and Theron, sometimes both at the same time, and they absolutely love it. There's also quite a bit of muscle play involved when they get frisky.

Each of them has a favorite PDA type. Artek really loves giving Kira and Theron hugs from behind or massaging their shoulders. Theron just really loves hand holding both his partners at the same time. Kira most commonly gives her boyfriends kisses on the cheek.

Their sleeping situation is...a bit of a pain. It does not matter what position Artek falls asleep in. Eventually, he's gonna end up completely sprawled out over someone and waking him up is borderline impossible. Theron is a big blanket hog himself, so you better hope it's not too cold. And Kira stays up way too late. You're lucky if she hits the sack by 3 AM.

Decided to upgrade Atrek to a poly ship with Theron and Kira!

Most of my screencaps got corrupted, so that's the best one of Artek and Kira

BOLD the FACTS

Saw this from @elvenbeard and figured I'd give it a try for my angry boi Artek Sefyr and show off more of his reworked backstory. Also I need to post more in general so...

PERSONAL

Artek's life has been...convoluted since day one. From being born the bastard son of Onderon's royal family, to becoming the Jedi Order's Battlemaster, and eventually emerging the Alliance Commander, his life has been full of complications and responsibilities.

Financial: wealthy / moderate*/ poor / in poverty

Medical: fit / moderate**/ sickly / disabled / disadvantaged / non-applicable

Class or Caste: upper / middle / working / unsure / other

Education: qualified / unqualified / studying / other

Criminal Record***: yes, for major crimes / yes, for minor crimes / no / has committed crimes, but not caught yet / yes, but charges were dismissed *He does earn a lot, but most of it he funnels into the Alliance, which is what keeps him out of wealthy **Would be fit, but I think the severe amount of wounds he's sustained knock him down a notch.

***Most of these are either from the Sith or Eternal Empires. I have no doubt he's considered a criminal by both societies.

FAMILY

Artek has struggled with family. Being born the bastard son of Queen Lina Petryph and Fallen Jedi Orrin Sefyr, along with having Regalun for a younger brother, he never considered his biological family close. This led to him initially being a bit distant for a while.

Children: had a child or children / has no children / wants children*

Relationship with Family: close with sibling(s) / not close with sibling(s) / has no siblings / sibling(s) is deceased

Affiliation: orphaned / abandoned / adopted / disowned / raised by birth parent(s)** / not applicable

*He has been wanting children for a while, but considering he's commanding a war effort, it's not his biggest priority at the moment.

**While he has lost his royal inheritance, Queen Lina loved him dearly and raised him the best she could.

TRAITS & TENDENCIES

Artek has been known to be rather complicated personality wise. Generally, he's know to be generally friendly, open-minded, noble, and courageous, but is known to be stubborn, reckless, ruthless, and pragmatic at times, even as a Jedi Master. A lot of his behavior is rather contextual, and there's exceptions for just about every part of it.

♦ extroverted / introverted / in-between

♦ disorganized / organized / in-between

♦ close-minded / open-minded / in-between

♦ calm / anxious / in-between / highly contextual

♦ disagreeable / agreeable / in-between

♦ cautious / reckless / in-between / highly contextual

♦ patient / impatient / in-between

♦ outspoken / reserved / in-between / highly contextual

♦ leader / follower / in-between

♦ empathetic / vicious bastard / in-between

♦ optimistic / pessimistic / in-between

♦ traditional / modern / in-between

♦ hard-working / lazy / in-between

♦ cultured / uncultured / in-between / unknown

♦ loyal / disloyal / in-between / unknown

♦ faithful / unfaithful / in-between / unknown

BELIEFS

He's a Jedi. He believes in the Force, but that's about the extent any religious beliefs go to. He's open to the idea of god(s), but he's not going to devote himself to them.

Faith: monotheist / polytheist / atheist / agnostic*

Belief in Ghosts or Spirits: yes** / no / don’t know / don’t care / in a manner of speaking

Belief in an Afterlife: yes / no / don’t know / don’t care / in a manner of speaking

Belief in Reincarnation: yes / no / don’t know / don’t care / in a manner of speaking

Belief in Aliens: yes*** / no / don’t know / don’t care

Religious: orthodox / liberal / in between / not religious

Philosophical: yes / no / highly contextual *Can Jedi be considered agnostic?

**Duh, he's spoken to quite a few. ***It's Star Wars, if he didn't believe in aliens, he'd be in denial.

SEXUALITY & ROMANCE

In his younger years, Artek was known to be very sexually active and kinda perverted. As he grew older, his libido died down, but he considers the Jedi Order's rules against sex and marriage to be hogwash still (though he does understand why those rules are in place at least).

Sexuality: heterosexual / homosexual / bisexual / asexual / pansexual

Sex: sex-repulsed / sex neutral / sex favorable / naive and clueless

Romance: romance repulsed / romance neutral / romance favorable / naive and clueless / romance suspicious

Sexually: adventurous* / experienced / naive / inexperienced / curious

Potential Sexual Partners: male / female / agender / other / none / all

Potential Romantic Partners: male / female / agender / other / none / all

*Still is kinda adventurous, but he's definitely more reserved.

ABILITIES

Being a Jedi, training comes with the job. He's known to be one of the best dualists in the order and has a bit of technical prowess on the side.

Combat Skills: excellent / good / moderate / poor/ none

Literacy Skills: excellent / good / moderate / poor / none

Artistic Skills: excellent / good / moderate / poor / none

Technical Skills: excellent / good / moderate / poor / none

HABITS

Following his time imprisoned by the Emperor, he has been known to fall into some bad habits. He indulged a lot in alcohol and overeating, much to the concern of his colleagues. Fortunately, he does have a bit of restraint to prevent himself from going over, and his friends do get him to snap out of it at times.

Drinking Alcohol: never / special occasions / rarely / sometimes / frequently / alcoholic / former borderline alcoholic turned sober*

Smoking: tried it / trying to quit / quit / never / rarely / sometimes / frequently / chain-smoker

Recreational Drugs: tried some / never / special occasions / sometimes / frequently / addict

Medicinal Drugs: never / no longer needs medication / some medication needed** / frequently / to excess

Unhealthy Food: never / special occasions / rarely / sometimes / frequently / binge eater

Splurge Spending: never / sometimes*** / frequently / shopaholic

Gambling: never / rarely / sometimes / frequently / compulsive gamble

*He did stop drinking after the Emperor's 'death' at the end of the Knight Story and went through RotHC and SoR sober. Come KOTXX again, however, he relapsed into it.

**I headcanon he does need a bit of medication, considering all the times his body's been shot at, stabbed, electrocuted, and straight up impaled (thanks Arcann)

***Generally responsible but does indulge every now and then to spoil Kira and Theron.

Yeah, this one was pretty fun to do! I'm slowly getting back into working on my SWTOR OCs, and hopefully some more stuff for Mass Effect, Baldur's Gate 3, and whatnot.

B A S I C S

• Full name: Artek Orrin Sefyr

• Gender: Male

• Sexuality: Demisexual Panromantic

• Pronouns: He / Him

O T H E R S 

• Family: 

- Father - Orrin Sefyr, ex-Chandrila Defense Force officer, former Senator of Chandrila, currently living in retirement

- Mother - Darya Kadir, Renegade Zakuulan Knight, 'Foreign Merchant', currently MIA

- Husband - Theron Shan, former SIS Operative, Eternal Alliance Spymaster

• Birthplace: Chandrila, Hanna City

• Job: Jedi Master, Hero of Tython, Battlemaster of the Jedi Order (former), Commander of the Eternal Alliance (current)

• Phobias: None (unless there’s one for the Emperor. Valkorphobia?)

• Guilty pleasures: 

M O R A L S 

• Morality alignment?: Neutral Good

• Sins: lust/greed/gluttony/sloth/pride/envy/wrath

• Virtues: chastity/charity/diligence/humility/kindness/patience/justice

T H I S - O R - T H A T 

• Introverted/extrovert. Artek is not exactly a social butterfly, but generally keeps a casual, friendly, and affable exterior. He likes chatting up and getting to know people, maybe kick back a few drinks with them.

• Organized/disorganized. He's not a complete mess, but his organization skills are pretty lackluster. He definitely relied on T7 to help keep him organized, and later Lana when it came to the Eternal Alliance.

• Close-minded/open-minded. There is a few things he's not gonna change his mind about, but generally, he'll maintain a tolerant and accepting stance.

• Calm/anxious. Depends on his mood and/or the scenario he's facing. Sometimes he's collected and focused, other times, he's quick to anger or paranoia.

• Disagreeable/agreeable. Again, a few strong opinions he's stubborn about, but generally, he's gonna remain open-minded and affable.

• Cautious/reckless. Yeah, he's not as much of a short fuse as he used to be during his padawan days, but even as a Jedi Master, he can be fairly bull-headed or shortsighted.

• Patient/impatient. Again, not as bad, but still noticeably can't keep still for more than five seconds

• Outspoken/reserved. If he has a strong opinion about something, you can bet your ass he's gonna make sure the whole room knows.

• Leader/follower. Once again, scenario dependent, but generally, he does tend to be at the front, leading the charge. However, if the situation needs for him to follow, he's more than willing to buckle down and do so.

• Empathetic/unempathetic. He definitely cares for other people and tries his absolute best to comfort them in times of distress. He's a good person to vent to and a shoulder to cry on, should you need either.

• Optimistic/pessimistic. Sure, he's willing to admit shit sucks at times, but he'd rather do something about it than sit around moping.

• Traditional/modern. Yeah, he respects traditions (namely that of the Jedi or Zakuul), but he is not going to let him impede progress.

• Hard-working/lazy. Generally tries to balance himself in this regard. Artek works hard enough to not be lazy, but he knows when he needs to take some time off for himself. He also has to pull Theron away from his work at times.

R E L A T I O N S H I P S 

• otp: Artek/Theron. Yeah, these two dorks are absolutely in love with eachother. Both of them are dedicated and loyal to their causes, yet they're willing to bend the rules every now and then. It's why they got married.

• ot3: Artek/Theron/Kira. No, it's not official, but Artek did briefly romance Kira in the past, who did joke about all three of them getting together. While he did kinda consider the prospect, he decided to leave the three of them being friends.

• brotp: Artek, Kira, Scourge, and T7. Out of all his friends, Artek has the strongest platonic bond with those three, and would trust them with his life.

• notp: Artek/Valkorion and Artek/Doc. Those were the worse ones I could think up. Might indulge in them in a joking way, but otherwise, I don't wanna think about either

Thought this would be a good way to introduce my newly reconstructed legacy. I'll get working on the other characters soon enough.

Breaking News: Arrogant Padawan thinks with the wrong head

But yes, Ranna Tao'Ven was Artek's first romantic encounter (at least in the game) where he was rebellious as hell. Unfortunately, it's not gonna last.

Artek 2: the Electric Boogaloo

Redoing my knight Artek again, for a handful of reasons. First of all, my steam screenshots got all corrupted, so all of the pre-expansion stuff is gone.

And second, during my last knight playthrough, I changed his name AND race halfway through, which kinda breaks the emersion. So yeah, we doing this from the beginning.

A little something about Artek in KOTFE

He doesn't start things off...great.

Yeah, in Chapter 3 of KOTFE, Artek let the reactor explode. I know, that doesn't seem pretty reasonable, but hear me out.

He just came out of carbonite, he's lost and confused, definitely not too keen on saving the people who kept him stuck in a block of ice for five years and occupied his home nation. However, this isn't treated as an excuse.

Yeah, he does get pretty aggressive around Zakuulans during the first 9 chapters, mainly due to him relapsing into his hatred for Valkorion/VItiate. Same thing happened in Chapter 3 However, after the Alliance is founded, and with the help of his allies, he begins to temper himself more and starting to atone for his actions in the first half of KOTFE. His biggest moment is when he stops Kaylio from firebombing the Spire during Chapter 10.

I'd love to hear your guys's feedback/suggestions on this.

My Reworked Legacy

Been working on this for a long time, but I've finally finished my rework of my SWTOR legacy. Decided it was best to list off my characters one by one with a brief introduction

First up is Artek Sefyr, my Jedi Knight and the Protagonist™ of this legacy. Basically, he's sort of like Clone Wars Anakin, a friendly, affable, and generally noble fellow, who does struggle with his emotions and the alure of the Dark Side. Also a Theron slut.

Next is my consular, Valri Monoya, my Jedi Consular. Definitely a wise, calm, and friendly type of Jedi. Approaches many situation with a "I have no enemies" mindset. Gonna eventually romance Nadia with her

This is my Smuggler Ixosecan, chaotic good pansexual fellow, saving the galaxy and looking good while doing so. Probably gonna go with Koth, I guess?

Baduenda returns! A 'take no shit' butch republic trooper who absolutely hates the empire. Gonna eventually romance Elara.

Gigachad Sith Tyrrnith is also back! This time in a fresh paint of Sith Pureblood Red. Pragmatic Dark side fellow, and romancing Malavai.

Brast'ore'illithyr, or Torei for short. Reformist Sith Inquisitor with a trollish streak. Also romancing Lana.

Kanux Shosam, my bounty hunter. Probably not gonna be a mandalorian, but we'll see. Gonna be romancing Torian with him.

Lastly, we have our Imperial Agent, Audian Vanterius. Basically, he's pro-Empire, anti-sith. Romancing Vector. Would love to tell you guys more, but I gotta go to work because capitalism. I hope to post more about them in the future!
