Raiders of the Lost Art - A Star Wars Mysteries Story Chapter Overview with Link: Dramatis Personae: ******* Chapter 18.5 - Gala Guests - A Festive Figbarf << to previous chapter of Raiders of the Lost Art After all guests and staff boarded the Atrisia, the starliner jumped into hyperspace, for the New Republic Gala soon to begin… The characters displayed are: Upper left: Nobody expected a Pirate Lord at the Gala, but here he is. Make no mistake, Commodore Arrick Click (where the Click would truly be a clicking sound, if pronounced correctly) is an aged, but formidable corsair. He is known to be merciful to those who surrender, but merciless to the ones who try to deceive him. Over decades of his life as a pirate, the Aqualish Arrick emerged as a (de facto political) leader and lord protector of his wild space territory. Arrick loosly allied with some Rebel cells and fought the Empire with his fleet. He was invited to the Gala (against some opposition) in the hope he would remain righteous. Arrick owns a Merqaal named Jinx. Upper right: The Ovissian U'Lell is a honorable judge at the reestablished New Republic's court of justice. He was a lawyer during the rise of the Empire and disputed the legality of its actions. As a result, he spent almost 20 years imprisoned on Wobani. He wouldn't tell, but he still wakes up in nightmares of that place sometimes. The vegetarian loves the snackbar at the Gala and can usually be found there. Middle left: Yashdee Begoon is a lovely elder lady, fulfillin the Ithorian stereotype. She is fond of living nature and can admire a single, decorative plant for multiple hours. Yashdee is a friendly, sometimes a little naive lady, who despises violence. At younger age, she was leader of her herd. Now she is an ambassador of Ithor and supporting the idea of peace negotiations. Middle right: The human Stephim Saul-Saro is hailing from Milvayne. His father wanted him to take over the families' shipping business. But Stephim didn't give a kriff about what his father wanted. He left to become a street artist and indeed caused a stir in the underground scene on Coruscant with some anti-(clone) war art. When the planet became the Imperial Centre, he anonymously continued with anti-totalitarian artworks. He was lucky, the long reach of the ISB did not get to him - mostly because of his relationship with holovid-starlet Dzenia Moone. With the Rebellion turning into a democratic government, he now hopes for more liberty. Lower left: Yurs Vendelorn is the chief of security on board of the Atrisia and in this role subordinate directly to Admiral Ackbar and Princess Leia. At young age, Yurs witnessed the separatist bombardment of his homeworld Humbarine and volunteered for the Imperial Navy in the aftermath of the war. He climbed the ranks but soon became disillusioned by the corruption and carelessness of the totalitarian regime. Like many others, he defected and joined the Rebel Alliance. Yurs sucessfully fought many battles during the civil war and eventually received the rank of Commander. Now, he was trusted the difficult task to secure the Gala and make the guests feel equally safe and free. Commander Vendelorn is busy at the moment, as some uninvited delegation of the Hutt cartell somehow bypassed the security and got as far as the flight deck. Lower Right: Dzenia Moone. Famous holoactress and descendant of the renowned Moone dynasty. The Coruscanti human with bleached white hair was already filthy rich, when she started her career. Dzenia was a darling of many imperial officials but fell in love with shipping company heir and no-name artist Stephim Saul-Saro. Not everyone approved this romance but as a Moone, Dzenia was almost untouchable. At some point, she learned about Stephims anti-imperial art-work and was riveted by his courage. Rumor has it, she stood up for Stephim, when the ISB found out. Another rumor even says that Emperor Palpatine - being a fan of the daily holo-soap Dzenia was starring in - granted her clemency. Dzenia and Stephim had to leave Coruscant but they were able to continue their careers on Cantonica. Finally after all these years of austerity, Dzenia Moone can show herself in public with her husband again and loves being in the spotlight. ************************** Hello and welcome to part 2 of my festive figbarf -
Life Day on Dathomir (or The Night(mare) before Life Day) Dathomir: a remote planet full of wonders and with a strong presence of the dark side of the force. It is the home of the Nightsisters – the Witches of Dathomir – who practice an obscure facet of the force, called magick. Under the rule of the Nightsisters are the Nighbrothers, a group of fierce Zabrak warriors. During the Clone Wars, the planet would come under attack due to a power struggle between the Sith and the Nightsister mother, leading to the destruction of the witch matriarchy. Since then, only a few Nighsisters and Nightbrothers remain, caught in despair and loneliness. But the Witches have one ghoulish power: Reciting the chant of resurrection, they could summon their dead sisters who would emerge from burial pods, hoisted up high above the ground… It’s the night before Life Day, when a Nightsister decides to do something against the loneliness and calls a gathering. It’s a family holiday after all… *********** Hello and welcome to this Life Day Entry Dathomir is not the planet you probably would call ideal to convey the spirit of Life Day... ... and indeed, it is not. But hey, Life Day comes in many variants and flavours across the galaxy. The build has got the Life tree and the burial pod is like a large, hanging Life orb. And above all, Life Day is about family. I don't know if the Nightsister and Nightbrother will really enjoy themselves with their undead sisters though... (they're zombies and old, so they probably have a different political opinion they would express loudly, when drunk at dinner) My other stories and builds:

We heard there was a party a board the Atrisia and no invites seem to make it to the hutt territores. So we thought we would make an appearance. (happy New Year to all.)

Life Day Special – Surprise on Mon Gazza Mon Gazza: A violent, poverty-stricken world, second only to notorious Kessel in spice production. Here, in the spice mines, only the toughest survive. Outworld workers are lured to sign a contract for three years where they would make big money and then return home, but the reality is different. Some miners are stuck in servitude for their lifetime. Nonetheless, within all the misery and darkness, a little spark of compassion can light a cozy fire… » Dam-di-dam. Dam-di-da. Pom-po-pom.Pom-po-poo... « » Look! Crow and I found this decommissioned, bronzium drill. « » Yeah! What do you say, ol'Wensley? « » Ha, completely corroded! It looks almost like a tree. We have our Tree of Life! Good job! « » …and I got them Life Orbs! « » Splendid! « » Seems we have everything, but for... what was that white, crystallized water called again? « » Ha ha! Snow, my dear Clueless! « Snow... you think she be mad if we not gonna have it? « » Wait! Sucker got something. « » Wurrrrrpp! « » He says he has collected some white-ish minerals at the den and pulverized them. « » Wonderful. So everyone to his position. Here she comes! « » Merry Life Day, Screwie!!! « » Gwrrraaaahhh?! « » Of course, sweetie. We know how you miss home! Here, this is for you! « » Rooow? Rooof-Booof? « » Ol'Wensley told us all about it! There is no planet and no weird custom this ancient prospector wouldn't know. « » Ah Crow, almost every culture has a feast like Life Day, you know? « » Hm. when I was a child, we would gather around the Kalikori at Three Moons Eve and exchange little presents. Then we would drink hot chakka and tell stories... « » On Burnin' Bog Day, I’d go for a hunt with my siblings. After we return, we would set the bog on fire and the whole clan would dance around the flames. The gases would make us dizzy and then we would feast. And eventually my sister and I would start a brawl. Awsome! « » Oh! And before I was sent to the mines, I would also get to know similar customs at my masters' families! One would even set up a tree in the habitat to celebrate life with the family! And he wasn't even a Wookiee! « » Exactly! Since we are all stuck here in these spice mines, let ourselves have our own merry, little Life Day celebration, hm? « » Mhhrrr Chrrrhhstmmmhhrrrr! « ***************************** Hello and welcome to my contribution to the Life Day Contest 2024 I hope you enjoy this little story about friends making their comrade happy on Life Day.
