And Then There's That COVID-19 Update

Welcome back to THE SITH ARCHIVES OF DARTH FANDOM! Of course, this COVID-19 thing is really not good for any of us. A lot of bad things are happening to many people, so anyone who's reading this PLEASE STAY SAFE. Anyway, this lockdown is giving me a bit more time to write my stories, and I am hoping to release the first issues of Sci-Fi Bi-Monthly Magazine and Tintin Magazine this May. I've got a post over at Kih-Oskh right now with a bit about what's going to be in the Tintin Magazine, so go check it out here. I'm also starting another page on this blog with Jedi Council Forums-related stuff, and in a couple of days, it should be there. Another new thing is a Lostworlds document I'm working on, with info on all sorts of cancelled and unpublished Star Wars stories. If you want to look at some Lostworlds stuff, you can visit Joe Bongiorno's Lostworlds section on his Expanded Universe Timeline website here, and you can read my bit about him here. I've already put in some stuff for The Princess Leia and Han Solo Adventures, The Heart of the Jedi, the Jedi Prince Sequel Trilogy, The Courtship of Princess Leia Trilogy, Lightsider,  Legacy of Doom, George Lucas' Monsters and Aliens, Fairy Tales, the Shadows of the Empire Prequel, The Essential Guide to Episode I, The New Jedi Order: Dark Tide II - Siege and The New Jedi Order: Knightfall. There's still more to come, and that's only the novels section! And guess what? I pretty much spammed Kassel Labs' Star Wars Intro Creator with my crawls and Lostworlds crawls, and it says I can expect them in about 300 days, so that's good. The Underworld stories are also coming along really well. I'm actually going to use Vernost as the main location for the second story, so that's going to be cool. Well, that's a wrap on THE SITH ARCHIVES OF DARTH FANDOM!

Star Wars: 1313 Preview Edition

Welcome back to the... Um... I’m not actually quite sure what this is... Smith... Sif... Sit... Oh! It’s THE SITH ARCHIVES OF DARTH FANDOM! Duh! How could I forget?! Okay, so, you might remember from my Gaze Into The Future that I am creating quite a lot of fan-fiction, such as new crossovers and stories based on cancelled media, including 1313, LucasArts’ amazing company-wide game. Below is a preview to my own adaptation of the awesome Boba Fett story, with special thanks to IGN, who supplied Star Wars fans with a load of 1313 information, and also everyone who was working on the game, especially the concept artists, because if it wasn’t for the concept artists, I wouldn’t be able to understand the story as well as I do!

To read the preview, either follow the link below, or read the rest of the post!

Orbit of Tatooine, 11 BBY

   “Tatooine.” Boba Fett skewered his personal spacecraft, Slave One, towards the sand-covered desert planet. The Slave had once been the iconic transport of the skilled bounty hunter Jango Fett, but since Jango’s passing on Geonosis, the ship had been presented to Boba, who was Jango’s genetically cloned son. “Haven’t been here in a while.” As he passed the planet’s two moons, he soared towards what appeared to be a sandstorm, not that he cared. “I’m in for a wild ride,” he spoke to himself. He launched the ship forward, full speed ahead, almost accelerating into hyperspace. The Slave’s boosters shot the craft directly towards its destination, and a parsec before crashing into the dunes, Boba pulled the ship off the ground, sand flying everywhere. He then landed a few hundred metres from a Sandcrawler. As the main exit slowly opened up into the broad daylight, Boba engraved his boots into the warm dust below his feet. He treaded across the paths of the short but mischievous Jawas, and headed straight for shelter. On his head, he wore his father’s metal helmet, and on his back he carried a long blaster rifle, similar to the DC-15 rifles, used by the Republic’s clone troopers during the Clone Wars, who later betrayed and killed their masters, resulting in this fine Imperial mess. In the distance, he spotted a lone dewback. Carrying a large sack on his left shoulder, he dragged himself towards the green creature, and chucked his belongings onto the animal’s back. He gazed towards the Sandcrawler up ahead, and began to trot towards the large vehicle. While the sandstorm grew stronger, the Jawas attempted to evacuate from their selling of droids. Fett wore a large brown poncho, which flew side-to-side during the storm.  He ran towards the short creatures and shouted, “Kuminee bok cuza—” Fett was interrupted by the Jawas, who took one glance at Fett’s rifle and screamed, “Ny shootogwa! Ny shootogwa!” The leading Jawa turned to his companions. “Gogowa!” he shrieked. Boba turned back to his dewback, and lowered his rangefinder to find the nearest shelter. He hopped on and sailed away. A shadow appeared from behind the Sandcrawler. He spoke into a comlink, “Fett doth bolla, o cakanle Jabba....”

Wow, okay. There are probably a few questions that are going to be asked about this story, such as “Who’s the guy who’s randomly speaking into a comlink in a language that seems a lot like Jabba the Hutt’s, as well as the fact that he seems to be talking to Jabba?” Well, check out IGN’s article at IGN.com to look for some clues on what it might be! As for the rest of the blog stuff.... I am getting my The Phantom Menace / The Force Unleashed II Photo Comic prepared, as well as one for the E3 2012 demos of 1313. I am also beginning to play around with some ideas for the Underworld series, and I have also almost completed the second chapter of Chronicles of Telian Aieler – The Clone Wars, which means that it is pretty much ready to be posted! (WARNING! The events in the beginning of the story do not follow-on directly from the Preview Edition!) I am also going finally going to post my father’s Opening Crawl for Episode XX, which reminds me that he is also working on his own section in my Archive Insider magazine! So, stay tuned for more on THE SITH ARCHIVES OF DARTH FANDOM!
