THE CHOSEN ONE: New Cover by Solus
I'm incredibly excited to unveil the new cover for Star Wars: Episode I - The Chosen One! This cover was created by none other than Solus.
Before we scroll down to the cover, though, let me preface it. I originally started writing The Chosen One way back in 2007 because I liked the idea of writing a desert epic. Through numerous drafts and revisions of the story, I never quite got there. The book was way too big to do it justice; it had three parts, with part one set on Tatooine, part two set on Coruscant, and part three set on Ondos (my version of Naboo, which I also once called Utapau in past drafts). Eventually, I chose to split that one big book into three better books. The Chosen One is a much better version of what was once part one.
Now th…

The Chosen One backstory
Earlier tonight, on the Star Wars Fanon IRC channel, there was a discussion with Star Wars Fanon users MPK and Karohalva about part of the backstory of Star Wars: Episode I - The Chosen One. This involves the thousand years prior to TCO, and shows what happened during that time. It's different from the canonical era of 1,000 years before The Phantom Menace, so it shows the road to the reboot so to speak.
Since I haven't released any TCO chapters in the last few months (I got hit with serious writers block and was choking hard on the fifth chapter, but that was resolved recently), I wanted to release this backstory. This is part of the series' "bible," which is what writers of series often used to keep track of story elements, character traits, et…

RC-1207, Sev
I am planning to make a little story on the Republic Commando Sev of the Delta Squad here, and it happens right a while after his crew abandon him on Kashyyyk. What do you think?

TCO Character Series: Ray'kele
I was recently looking back over some old role-playing profiles and I came across one for an old character that I barely ever used called Ray'kele Makius. Ray'kele, as you may know from following my work, is a character in the upcoming Star Wars: Episode I - The Chosen One. He is a member of the Ophuchi Clan and a very spiritual figure, one who is a mentor to Padme and will become one for Michael Lars.
When I created the Ray'kele Makius character, the Alternative Saga was far more religiously oriented than it is now. Don't get me wrong, it certainly has its religious elements and is meant to be spiritual, but I often tried to tie western Earth religions into it. For example, the Force was the power of God, whom I called Yahweh after the Jewi…
Introducing The Chosen One
So it's been some time since I brought you a major update for Star Wars: Episode I - The Chosen One. I think it's high time that I get you up to speed on what I've been working on these past few months.
As you can see off to the right, as previously revealed, The Chosen One now has a new cover, created as always by Squishy Vic. This reflects the new state of the novel: it has been broken up into three different books.

The Ophuchi are coming to TheStarWarsRP.Com!
Today, I introduced a general interest thread on TheStarWarsRP.Com letting people know that I'll be introducing the Ophuchi Clan into the role-play. I tried to do this about a year ago, but it lacked direction so I dropped it. That's no longer the case, and I intend to do it for real now.
So far, the only Ophuchi character who has been introduced is Elias, who I established in the second draft of Star Wars: Episode I - The Chosen One as the founder of the Ophuchi Clan—though he was only mentioned in passing. He brings together a number of descendants of the Order of the Jedi Bendu sometime between 12,977 BBY and 12,973 BBY, a little over 2,000 years after the great schism that tore the Jedi Bendu apart.
I'm really looking forward to this story…
New SWRP time skip proposal
Earlier today, a proposal for a four (4) year time skip in the plot of TheStarWarsRP.Com was announced and introduced. A .PDF file format write up, which can be found here, was released as well. This write up details the four years of the skip, which advances the timeline to 12,973 BBY.
To quote part of the informational thread:
More information will follow in the coming days and weeks as the time skip approaches.
Timeline of Corellian Senators
My first blog post on this wiki! A whole no people will read it, more than likely. That's OK, even if this wiki doesn't get much readership, I still enjoy working on it as a way to organize as much Alternative Saga information as possible. It's incredibly helpful.
So this blog addresses the timeline of Galactic Senators from Corellia during and immediately after the Alsakan Crisis, prior to the outbreak of the Hutt War. With the introduction of Anthoni Berethro Salandra two years ago on TheStarWarsRP.Com, where it was mentioned he was the Galactic Senator of Corellia, there was no mention of what happened to Denis Holand—who had previously been the Senator of Corellia in the timeline, but was never really used and who's author went inactive…
