    Event Fortress Vader: Path of the Broken

    Xander collapsed with the exertion as the walls ground to a halt. When he came to moments later, the door had opened itself out into the desert ahead. He suspiciously allowed the remaining Sith to go ahead of him, lightsaber still drawn, but deactivated. As he crossed the threshold, he heard a...

    Ask Plot Chaos, Yet Harmony

    Xander fought back tears - both from physical pain and the realisation that once again he was a burden on the master he was so desperate to impress. In this agitated state, he was not able to muster the concentration even to attempt to lift the boulder in the force. In his frustration he...

    Event Fortress Vader: Path of the Broken

    Xander saw the others in the room telling from equal, yet different, pain to that which ran through his bones. Knowing how weak he was, and how weak the other Jedi was likely to be, he stumbled towards him as that Jedi screamed. He laid his own hand on the other Padawan's shoulder, allowing...

    Ask Plot Chaos, Yet Harmony

    Well this day keeps getting better, Xander said to himself as he fell down the canyon side. Or at least that's the version he would admit to in polite society. As he got to his feet at the bottom of the fall, a potent mix of mining dust and volcanic ash began to fill the air and attacked his...

    Event Fortress Vader: Path of the Broken

    The letters and symbols momentarily took Xander's attention and so he didn't notice the Sith approach, despite the clear warning. Thoughts rushed through his head. Writing means communication. Communication means other people. His train of thought was interrupted by the Gungan accusing them...

    Event Fortress Vader: Path of the Broken

    You fool Xander He cursed himself inwardly, first for allowing himself to fall into this trap and second for his weakness in coming round later than his enemy and the other Padawan. Although no one has said as such, Xander had thought of himself as responsible for the other Padawan, being the...

    Ask Plot Passion, Yet Serenity

    "No, I'm fine." Xander lied feebly. He was not ready to override cultural millennia of not talking about feelings. Inside he was emotionally shattered. He knew he would feel ashamed when he had time to sit down and gather himself, but now he felt nothing. He followed the master with as much...

    Ask Plot Passion, Yet Serenity

    I am not my ancestors! Now why would you jump to that conclusion? Who mentioned them? The voice cackled again. This time more deeply. No you are right you are not them. You had every advantage their blood money could buy and you have not achieved half of what they did. They ruled a galaxy...

    Ask Plot Passion, Yet Serenity

    Xander raced down the passageway, lit only by the green glow of his lightsaber. Dank condensation fell from the cavern ceiling, dampening his enthusiasm. After some time running, the lost Padawan came to a threefold fork. This was when he realised he was so. A disembodied laugh cackled through...

    Ask Plot Passion, Yet Serenity

    Xander followed his master closely up the hill. For a moment the adrenaline overrode his emotional introspection. Thud. Thud. Thud. Was that his footsteps? His racing heartbeat? He wasn't sure. Meanwhile Xander's eyes took in little more than the heels higher up the slope until they were in a...

    Ask Plot Passion, Yet Serenity

    "No nothing, master," he lied. He might later let the Knight in on his inner turmoil later but now wasn't the time. For now there was too much going on to worry about; or at least that was the justification he made to himself. Perhaps in reality it was the fear of losing face that kept him stoic...

    Ask Plot Passion, Yet Serenity

    As the ash whipped past, Xander pulled his hood tighter round his face and tried to cover his nose and mouth with his robes. The formlessness of the grey swirl was disorienting. He couldn't tell what was hill and what was ash-strewn sky. He was therefore beholden upon following others. This...
