Name: Luke SkywalkerSpecies: HumanAffiliation: New Republic, JediObjective: Luke is on the track of some lost Jedi lightsabers and now investigating some obscure cultists calling themselves Reborn.Background: No need to introduce Luke. He's the Jedi who destroyed the first Death Star and was involved in the destruction of the second as well. He's a hero and carries the burden of expectations of the whole New Republic. Antagonists: Name: RebornSpecies: up to now, encountered human onlyAffiliation: Galactic Empire, Acolytes of the BeyondObjective: Overthrowing the Rebel RuleBackground: The Reborn came out of nowhere, but they use the force, although Luke Skywalker sensed their presence to be kind of 'warped' ******* Chapter 01 - Jedi Reborn Somewhere in the Middle City of the ecumenopolis on Taris. Loud music playing in one of the hottest clubs in town: the FLAREDANCER! » Bartender? ... BARTENDER!? « » Ah, Jedis! I had no ideas! What can I do for honored Jedi Ladies? « » I... I'm no Jedi. It just came to happen that I call a lightsaber my own. In fact, I'm having questions about the Jedi. « » Of course. Many peoples have them. « » What? Lightsabers? « » Questions. Now you seek informations? « » I heard rumors that there are Jedi, occasionally visiting this club. I... I'd like to meet them. « » Oh, I understands. You want to meet the Jedis. Here they comes! « » You are looking for Jedi? Who are you, missy? « » Are you Jedi? « » I'm the one asking questions! Where do you have that lightsaber from? « » This doesn't feel right... I sense the Dark Tide... I'd better go... « » You are not going anywhere. You are - « » Let her go. « » It's him! The Last Jedi! « » I said, let her go! « » You have no power here, Jedi! We are the Reborn! We are many - you are alone. « » Rrnn-rrnn!!! « » You are making your last mistake... You all [makes a gesture] go! « » I will pierce a crimson blade through this girl even before you - gngh! « » Where is she? How could she dissapear!? « » Forget her! Get the Jedi! « » Raaahhhh!!! « » You can't win! Don't make it cost your life like your friend! « » Grrr. Stop talking and fight, Jedi! « » Thank you ... who are you? « » I'm a Jedi and my name is Luke Skywalker. « » Iya Qu'an. I was looking for you,... I think. « » I'd say you found me then. That power of yours... you kinda dissappeared and escaped the Dark Jedi so smoothly. « » It's a trick I learned from my kin, the Fallanassi. The White Current disguises me for a short time. When I concentrate enough. « » The White Current?... a synonym of the Force I guess. But I've never seen this power. Come and help me to check on those Reborn. Ah here comes Artoo! Right on time. « » Who were they? « » I don't quite know... they fought like Jedi, but... the force felt different with them. Kinda ... warped. « » Look at this ones face! « » I know. Their corpses seem corrupted and consumed by an unnatural force… « » Piep-dood-piep-trall! « » Artoo says, these two were Stormtroopers once. « » But how could they become strong with the Dark Tide? « » I don't know... Many lightsabers, belonging to Jedi once and later corrupted by the Sith, were transferred from Coruscant recently. One trace brought me here to Taris. I think their weapons might belong to that ominous batch. But it seems there is more going on here... « >> to next chapter *********************************************** Hello and welcome to an entry I've been looking forward for a long time. Sorry for the long post, but I really wanted to do all the different action packed shots and angles I hope it is epic for you as well! The group of Len'ya is a little bit idle now, on their way to a secret meeting with a Hutt. That's why there was time to work on this build, introducing my first Jedi story piece and the lighted bar! It's an hommage to the hero of my childhood - you can imagine who - but also an hommage to one of the best Star Wars video games, Jedi Oucast! I love the bar scene from the game and this here is a big bow to the little dialogue with the bartender with bad grammar there, as well as to the villians of the game, the Reborn. I'm now purposely mixing old canon and new canon here, boldly creating an "Eurobricks Mysteryverse" version of it with the Reborn being created/or part of the Acolytes of the Beyond. I'm going to explore this arc in the future for sure. But I'm not only bringing-in some mysterious dark Jedi, but also introducing a new character in Iya Qu'an. Stay tuned if you want to know, how the loose ends of the stories will unfold! Last but not least, here some additional images of how the lighting of the FLAREDANCER club has been done. I used an old tracing box I build once for illustrations. Here, I left open slits underneath the tables and voila, the nice lighting EDIT NOTE: I changed the title and tags, as this is now the first chapter of a spin-off called 'Jedi Quest' Quote
Professor Thaum Posted October 13, 2024 Posted October 13, 2024 Nice cantina, nice Darksiders (nice idea, which I will borrow for sure) , nice wannabee jedi. Nice story,nice lightsaber effects, nice lighting, and nice idea for the lighting... So, what a nice build ! (and nice cameo of max_lego ) a for me Quote

It mustn't be Jar Jar's and Brandei's fault, but it seems that some precious lightsabers were lost and are now used by unworthy... Whoever animated those poor stormtrooper corpses... Rax should've counted the lightsabers! Seriously, I must get more involved in this RPG, referencing events occurring in the Galaxy... The military officers may not be alligned, but they aren't isolated! Your build is beautiful as always, @Sentinel_Brix! I am looking forward to what happens next! Now that Baldarek is here, I should try to introduce Kyle Katarn... Quote
Yperio_Bricks Posted October 13, 2024 Posted October 13, 2024 The story is just great! The whole "Raiders..." arc should be a 5 hour audio drama! And I love the lightning! Using the light and box is so simple but very effective and the light effects in the bar looks so so good Also props to Luke for his dramatic entry and for vanquishing the enemies with acrobatic moves and skillfull lightswordsmanship Quote

Just saw an opportunity to give a little nod to your story 20 hours ago, Max_Lego said: Now that Baldarek is here, I should try to introduce Kyle Katarn...

Eternal Maul Posted October 14, 2024 Posted October 14, 2024 This story is full of surprises indeed ! Love the lightsaber editing lights and effects Quote

Just saw an opportunity to give a little nod to your story It's okay, I now see that. Luke has the right to suspect anything - even if Na'al told him about the 'madman from Pavo Prime', he shouldn't know it's he who secured the lightsabers... I planned to include a nod to your story in one of my next builds! Quote

Love the lightsaber editing lights and effects Thanks! I realized for the rather dark environment of the bar I needed to enhance the lightsabers too. So there are a few effects from post-production. Usually I don't want to do it so much and like the pure Lego effects more, but here it turned out to be a cool thing. On 10/16/2024 at 8:58 PM, Jody Meyer said: oh I like where this is going....

MKJoshA Posted October 30, 2024 Posted October 30, 2024 This is incredible! As soon as I saw your bartender I knew you were pulling from Outcast. Great reference I also really love that you've pulled in the Fallanassi EU story. Can't wait to see more. Your lighting really sets this MOC apart. Your builds are hitting amazing new levels. Quote

Outcast is still one of the best video games in terms of Star Wars feeling so I wanted to give it some credit here. The 'barfight' on Nar Shaddaa is such an iconic scene.

I started moccing around this time last year ago and I really enjoyed the journey so far and I learned a lot since then. I'm really happy I was invited to this game and community Quote
