He had an insatiable appetite for knowledge, which I suppose should have been our first clue. Revan was one of the best and brightest students the Jedi Order had seen in years, not since the War of Exar Kun. (See the end of the work for more notes.)įrom the journals of Jedi Master Dorak, Councilmember of the Dantooine Enclave and Chronicler By the way, I'd recommend the music track "Bastila's Theme" to be played for this part. Now that that's all out of the way, let's begin. One last thing, I have also recently decided that I no longer give two damns about what is "canon" in Star Wars anymore. You know, side-stories like Lair of the Shadow-Broker or Citadel. I don't know quite yet what I'll be replacing it with but it will be awesome! And of course HK-47 will still be there how could you have a KOTOR fic without HK?! I'm also planning on doing "DLC" for the story after it's largely finished.

It also doesn't help that I think Tatooine is actually the most boring part of the whole KOTOR game. Yeah, sacrilege, I know! But seriously, all Star Wars games seem to have this thing about including Tatooine in some way and I'm sick of it. Also, the characters of Mass Effect being introduced into KOTOR aren't the only twists I'm planning. Barring the "issues" around the ending of ME3, its great stuff, pure adrenaline and adventure, so how could I resist? And so, Force Effect was born.īe aware that the current title is kind of a placeholder I might keep it, might not. I consider Mass Effect to be Bioware at their best. What if the big twist was making a crossover? With another Bioware franchise? Obviously, Jade Empire and Dragon Age were out, being pure fantasy and all, so that left Mass Effect. I struggled to find something to re-ignite my interest and then it just suddenly kinda hit me. Then, when i decided to finally settle down and make the big push, guess what? The story had begun to bore me! It didn't appeal quite the same way it had before. I worked on the story on and off for the last few years but it never got close to being finished. Of course back in 2005, I didn't know just how common a practice for fanfics that was. It shouldn't be much of a surprise then that i set about making a novelization for the game. KOTOR was the first Bioware game I ever played and it is quite likely one of the best Star Wars games ever made. But it became part of the seed that eventually sprouted into this story.

I think it was some random comment on Facebook. I cannot even remember where I heard that. "Tali is like Darth Vader's cute younger sister."
