Hey guys another chapter out.
It was brought up in one review that they might have trouble with my writing style. I hope you don't have too much trouble, and that goes for everyone. I switch between perspectives in this chapter more than once and when I say 3rd person perspective, I am truly not sure if it is actually 3rd person, or narrative, or whatever. I always mix them up, only one I know for certain is 1st person perspective. Hope this isn't a problem for any readers.
Hope you enjoy!
***********************************
Just over 12k words, the biggest chapter I have ever written I hope you guys enjoyed! I had to do a lot of research before getting the chapter out, because I wanted to add a few things and get it pretty detailed. I'm not an avid reader of Star wars Comics so a lot of the technical terms and equipment I don't know about, I hope you guys can understand.
When it comes to the order to land their ship in Theed, I want to point out to anyone who doesn't think it is realistic (Might be over thinking it). To Nute Gunray, the ship looks like a luxury Naboo cruiser. As he has just lost the Jedi and is about to take over/Invade Naboo, any and all ships would be denied access to leave.
By capturing a Luxury Naboo cruiser he likely thinks that he will have more hostages to have in play or possible ransom through shadier means. Sending them to the capital, the place he is currently invading and will be overrun with droids, he is insured they can't escape.
The Phantom that the Operative uses in the game was designed with half the look using the designs of a Naboo luxury cruiser or something along those lines, so I think it fits that from sensor readings they would assume that the Phantom is a new or rare type of Naboo cruiser.
Movie; time line wise, them destroying the contingent of droids and 2 tanks happens while Nute Gunray is arriving on the planet and then talking to the Queen, before they get transported to Camp 4. I know this is a small time frame, but after writing the chapter I noticed in the movie it went from the invasion scene of the droids coming into the capital/Palace, to them talking to Nute Gunray and being sent off in a very short time.
Seriously it was just, invasion happens, Gunray steps off his ship, cut to Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-wan coming into the capital and then he's talking to the fake queen and sending them off to camp 4. I'm taking the liberty of saying that the talk just then took at least 30mins to an hour.
As seen in this chapter, Yes Mace's wife was the Sith Inquisitor, Darth Nox. Now the title Darth Nox denotes that she was evil in the game SWTOR as you'll get a different Darth title depending on what you do in the story line.
Because she was his wife, I have introduced, I would say, one of the most powerful force abilities ever created, Force Walking. (Remember I don't read the comics.) The main point here for those who don't play the game, Force Walking, is basically an ability to talk to and utilize force ghosts to boost a person's power.
You can forcefully enslave the force ghosts or get them to agree to a type of contract. That fact alone means that you can nearly infinitely increase your power over and over, making the person extremely powerful. So in this flick yes, Mace will have the abilities of both the inquisitor and Warrior, making him pretty overpowered when he does fight.
I might also add sith alchemy techniques later as he has the knowledge that his wife can provide in that department.
Questions about the operative/Ayillh using both a sniper rifle and knives from both advanced classes, I look at the characters in more real life terms. Everyone from the old republic would have dabbled over the years in many of the professions of the trade, such as Mace knowing both juggernaut and marauder techniques. Just wanted to get that out there.
And finally coming up will be the rest of Episode 1. I will probably split the rest of the film into two chapters as I've got a lot to cover and add. Maul will be showing up, plus a few other Jedi might join in for the ride to make things more interesting.
Ashara, Blizz and Vette are planned to finally get to do something/ have a fight scene and along with them the big man himself, Mace will finally get to show just how powerful he truly is!
Nothing planned with Vaylin for the time being in this arc.
