Episode Zero – Lost Archives

A video series for a small community, here’s something to give your attention to for a bit. It’s Episode Zero, Lost Archives, a lore show made to showcase the Characters, Stories, and Adventures created by the Roleplay Community.  We’ve got something fun and interesting to share with you this week from the SWTOR community. This archive of the lost and forgotten will be curated by Darth Eros, his assistant Master Hawke and other guests. Darth Eros is also a writer, so I completely relate to what he says about the roleplaying community, making friends, and growing yourself as a writer through roleplaying. It’s one big reason I have always loved gaming so much. As a creative and a writer, video games were a way to flex my creative brain, and video games with a story, or that allowed roleplaying were all the more fun. By the time SWTOR came around,…

The Corbantis Chronicles – A SWTOR Roleplaying Comic

You know how much I love sharing cool SWTOR and Star Wars fan art with you. Well, we found this cool post on the SWTOR subreddit and of course wanted to share it with you. Warning: Contains minor spoiler about Republic Makeb. “Wanted to share this here. It’s my first attempt ever at a comic or a roleplaying storyline for my characters in SWTOR. Any feedback negative or positive is most appreciated. Warning: Contains minor spoiler about Republic Makeb. Page One  Page Two The fan comic was created using a combination of Photoshop & Manga Studio EX 5.

A Warning from the Dread Masters

The Dread Masters posted a warning to all players on the official forums yesterday. Personally  Love it! Whoever decided to ramp up the amount of RP juiced prepatch content is brilliant!  And props to the “Dread Masters” for even replying to the whiny, troll posts! Styrak may have fallen, but your victory is an empty one. We are the Dread Masters. We are your nightmares incarnate. No longer contained by the Empire or the Republic, we will terrorize the galaxy as we please. It is futile to resist. You have a choice – become one of us or be swept aside. But the magnitude of our power is more than most can bear. You must tell us why you are worthy of us. Choose your words wisely. We will be watching. One of the posts that really court my eye was this one: War and death will claim you even in…

Men Roleplaying Females in Games: Where My Girls At?

So here’s a topic I have had with male friends and even with my husband- the topic of males roelpaying females in video games. When you ask where someone stands on this issue, you can get a great deal of varied opinions, something I find really interesting. As for me, I don’t really care. I treat someone as what they represent themselves to be online. Several years ago, I played WoW as a priest in a raiding guild back when 40-mans were the top-tier endgame content. There was another priest, a female Night Elf who was a senior player to me. She taught me how to play priest, how to keep up with the tanks and when to take mana breaks without holding up the whole flow of the run. She taught me a great deal about mastering priest healing in the game and even how to lead healing for…
