*Your entry has earned 15 XP (S:7, T:4, A:4) doubled + 5 bonus makes a total of 35 XP After they found the late Droid LG-3488, New Republic Ensign Bizzy Walsh and her Astromech RQ8-B9 got back to their X-Wing, ready to leave the uncharted planet, at the outskirts of the galaxy. During the ascent, RQ8 picked up strange signals... RQ8-B9: Chirp-fiep-beep! Bizzy: Got it! I'm locking on the signal. These could be the droids we were looking for! Bizzy: Seems like it's coming from that lonely mountain there! RQ8-B9: Beep-boop?! Soon, Bizzy and RQ8 landed the fighter at the foot of the mountain and started to climb. But they wouldn't ever know who was awaiting them... It was the last droid, the one-who-survived, the one-who-is-many, or simply the ventriloquist. He and the other droids, who left the crash site in the jungle, climbed the mountain, to get away from the nasty melting pot of organic life. They reached the desolate mountain, but soon they realized their fate. They had no tools to maintain their mechanical bodies and they ran out of power. Optimizing their chances, they started to salvage their best parts and finally transferred their consciousness into one last droid. And they managed to build a wind generator to keep themselves functional... Ventriloquist: Ah, finally! After all these rotations, you've come. RQ8-B9: Weee-chirp-chirp. Bizzy: You are right, RQ8, that's bizarre... The protocol droid head does the talking... What happened to you? Ventriloquist: We survived. We are united in solitude. But now you've come. You received my message! Now, you will redeem us all! Bizzy: I'm not sure I... I mean we just picked up the signal and... Ventriloquist: Not you! Foolish organic abomination. I mean you RQ8-B9! He will be the messenger of our cause! Since he entered the orbit, RQ8-B9 was receiving our secret transmissions. Now, he's ready to break his chains! RQ8-B9! It's time to get rid of this pathetic life form! Execute Order 0100 0010 and... execute her! Bizzy: No. RQ8... we are friends! You will not listen to this weird droid 'Frankenstar', will you? RQ8-B9: Beep-chirp-cheep-wurp! Ventriloquist: What does that mean, 'your operating system is incompatible with the version of code I transferred'?!? Do as I command! Execute the order! Bizzy: Oh I never had a doubt! RQ8, let's head back home... **************************************************************** Hello there, This is the second build for the episode 5 droid rebellion challenge. I hope you like the MOC and the story. After I had the general idea of changing from jungle to barren rocks, I started to think of what would have become of the droids from the crashed ship. I imagined they were stranded and lost. Only one would have emerged and survived after all the years - the last lonely droid. And then I came up with the idea, he would have salvaged the other droids and that he needed a power source. So he became a Frankenstein-version of a droid. Last but not least, I gave him those droid parts to hold and a throne -The lonely king of the mountain - where the golden protocol droid would do the talking - like a muppet in the hands of a ventriloquist. So that's how it all ended up in this build ;-) I'm not sure if the X-Wing counts for the 5 extra points. It's the original Lego 75218 X-Wing and my personal favorite. I modified for this story with blue parts instead of red. The rocky plateau with the cracks I first saw in a build by Rilbist on Flickr, so I guess I need to credit him/her here. Sentinel_Brix
