Star Wars oc time !!!! Crew of guys who don't need air to breathe

Boss Wulli (Helon Dop, she/he) - Big fucking gungan. ~2,20 m (~7'3") and really strong - Former Gungan Army soldier and engineer, still holds a heavy preference for gungan technology - Knows how to make boomas, and had Booma install a booma cannon in the ship - Lost an arm and part of an ear at some point but that only made her more powerful

Booma (Lei Leiru Been, he/they) - A genius gungan engineer and Boss Wulli's long time friend - They suggested becoming space pirates as a joke, Wulli decided to take it seriously and dragged him along - Engineered a lot of modifications to the ship, to suit their needs and tastes

Nass (Ahak Keer, she/her) - The crew's big money maker - Used to be a spy, but got tired of risking her life and settled for a slightly less risky career - Has had that harpoon gun since forever. it can pierce ship hulls. she loves it - Secretly gay for Boss Wulli (it's only a secret to the two of them)

Bullet (he/him) - Entirely unrelated to those two weirdos, met them on the job - Kind of a jack-of-all-trades by necessity, he used to be a solo bounty hunter - Knows a lot about guns. like A Lot.

Bone (it/its) & Rust (it/its) - Eggmates who work as cyberneticists together - They each know how to deal with one half of the process, so for your own good Do Not Separate Them - Didn't know about anesthesia until they started working off-world - Easiest way to tell them apart is to see which one is wearing a silly scarf (that would be Rust)

Knives (KN1-V35, she/any) & Dollie (D0L1-33, it/any) - Reprogrammed pit droids - All-purpose assistants - Dollie is usually helping Bone and Rust - Knives is usually either with Dollie or stalking Bullet - Knives realy really reallly likes Bullet. because he lets her shoot guns

I have not designed their ship because well. I am no good at drawing spaceships. but it's a pretty spacious repurposed freighter ship. the interior looks very gungan - every room is sealed off from the other so the ship only has atmosphere where they want atmosphere - Boss Wulli's, Booma's and Nass's rooms are submersible - Bullet's room is connected to Bone and Rust's, and they are usually full-time no atmosphere areas since the three of them are always wearing breathing tanks. (they activate the atmosphere sometimes, but their atmosphere setting is only breathable for them)

Gungans are cool

I feel like every major Star Wars fan has some little things they just love. With a world that big and expansive it just makes sense. And for me it’s the Gungans. These amphibians jus have a really cool world, with the underwater cities, energy based weapons, and cool varying designs. Fine Jar-Jar was stupid I admit that, but I’ve always loved Boss Nass and his sheer power and strange mannerisms. Plus Captain Tarpals was awesome. I would have really liked to see more of this race and maybe what their culture could have been beyond just military.

[omg-spy]

11-8-2022 I'm at a loss of what to do, lets have some Boss Nass hcs-

*HE'S FUCKING RIPPED *He can actually do a flip but chooses when and why. Asking him usually won't make it happen. *Can handle alcohol, but doesn't drink often. (like.....he'll drink a LITTLE bit once a year for a holiday sometimes........that's all) *CAN be trusted to watch your drink at a club. If he catches anyone trying anything he can (and has) knock people out with one punch. Seriously, this guy is STRONG. *EXCELENT sense of humor *A pretty laid back guy tbh, easy to talk to, but if you wrong him or lie to him you better watch your back bitch...... *That being said, he is very forgiving BUT you have to either apologize or prove yourself or make up for whatever it was you did *((a hc I saw earlier by someone and I really liked it)) He likes Podracing! *That friend you can talk to about anything and everything. *He's intimidating, yes, but he's also pretty friendly. *ALSO he could AND WOULD beat the absolute shit outta that Andrew Tate guy-

Jar Jar Binks is rubbish - and here's a dumb thing I did to try and fix him

This guy is a lot of the problem with this movie, and not just for the obvious reasons. I think Jar Jar represents a good idea wasted on shoddy execution: he is supposed to demonstrate how dismissive the Jedi are of local cultures if they don't immediately appear to sophisticated or useful to them, but apparently George forgot this between writing the script and directing the performance, because the meaning is horribly undercut. The broad strokes of his character - an exile caught up in events and dragged across the galaxy before fighting to defend his home, and then rewarded for his heroism with political influence so he can ultimately be exploited by the villain - are pretty good. He's a compelling addition to the story, on paper. Even his weird dialogue isn't necessarily a problem (apart from it being borderline offensive to actual creole languages), since it makes him look like an idiot at first. The problem is, he never actually stops looking like an idiot. Everything he achieves, he achieves by accident. His clumsiness, rather than being a part of his personality, is his whole personality.

There's a couple of things I've done to try and mitigate these problems in my recut of the prequel trilogy, but there's a limit to what I can do. I've removed a lot of cutaways to his stupid facial expressions or goofing off - like his 180 frontflip dive with feral scream, or sticking his awful tongue out at Qui-Gon. He screams and falls over less, the battle at the end of Phantom Menace is reordered to make all his heroics look a little more intentional, and his screen time is generally reduced. These are all normal decisions a sane editor would make. However, I've watched these movies far too many times to still be sane so I have gone a bit further than that - I have replaced all the dialogue between gungans with Slovenian.

I wanted to create the impression that they have their own language and are capable of complex speech - they just don't bother to learn Basic particularly well. When talking to themselves or other gungans, they use their own language, and then stumble through conversations in Basic with other races. This makes the constant 'meesa yousa three bagsa fullsa' less grating and helps to build the idea of the gungans as an isolationist society, which sounds like a great idea. However, replacing the dialogue with alien language would require reconstructing every sound effect and music cue in the soundtrack, which I don't have the skills for, so instead I used the audio from the Slovenian dub. This will likely ruin the experience for any Slovenian speakers, but it's not the first time - ewok dialogue contains a lot more tagalog than you'd expect for alien speech, for example, and the twi'leks all have comedy french accents. While doing this, I also learned that the French dub is pitched a semitone lower than the English version. Who'd have thought.

In the end, I picked Slovenian because the actors in that dub sounded close enough to their English language counterparts that mixing them in wasn't going to be too jarring (unless you speak it, of course), and it gave me the chance to write new dialogue for a lot of the scenes:

Boss Nass now comes across as a lot more intelligent. When negotiating, Padmé now speaks his language when she says 'I beg you to help us', the intention being that it's her knowledge of and - more importantly - respect for gungan culture that wins him over more.

There are a few places where this is very ropey - the sound 'general' apparently means 'frontline' in gungan - but overall I think it greatly improves one of the weakest elements of this movie

There is something so satisfying about shaking your face like Boss Nass after a reallllyyy good sneeze

“Therefore…” Jar Jar said, swallowing slightly to get over his nerves. “Mesa propose given emergency powers, to…”

Then his mind went completely blank.

He couldn’t remember the name of the guy he was meant to be giving emergency powers to.

He couldn’t remember the name of the guy’s office.

Boss? No, no, that wasn’t right… big bombad boss-man? No, that wasn’t it either!

The whole room seemed caught in a singing tension, and Jar Jar wasn’t sure if he was thinking quickly or if everyone was staring at him and that just made it worse.

Then he had a sudden realization.

The point of these emergency powers was to make it so they could rescue Padme and Anakin and Obi-Wan – and the boss guy whose name he couldn’t remember hadn’t wanted them, he’d said so, he’d just said it was necessary to cut through all of the gridlocken arguing.

But – but it didn’t have to be the boss man guy.

“-Jedi Master Yoda!” Jar Jar finished, in a gasp, then practically collapsed back on the seat of the senate pod.

Cheers and shouts immediately filled the Senate hall, calling for the approval of the motion, and Jar Jar swallowed because he felt short of breath.

This public speakin’ business was way scarier than fighting an army! And that was plenty scary enough itself, too…

Palpatine’s eyes twitched, and he forced himself to relax his hand.

He had been… outplayed. Disastrously so. In a way he had absolutely not anticipated.

That idiot gungan had seemed like the perfect patsy, and it had been so important to his plans that everyone agree with the need for the emergency powers… and that nobody suspect how much he dearly wanted and needed the authority to cut through the factionalism in the Senate.

It had taken decades of work to create that factionalism, of encouraging different groups to vote strategically to obfuscate their preferred courses of action on different subjects, so that nobody but himself was aware that three quarters of the Senate would vote according to his wishes because so many of them were persuaded that he was their highest placed and most secret ally.

All to create the gridlock that emergency powers would be needed to cut through.

But now… now that idiot gungan had ruined everything. Someone had pulled his strings so masterfully that Palpatine couldn’t even see them.

[vvitchgrindergeneral]

What if Jar-jar Binks was the only Gungan that talked like that. Like what if Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon went to Otoh-Gunga and Boss Nass was just like Oh hey man how's it going. And it turns out they exiled Jarjar because he wouldn't stop doing the racist stereotypical patois accent

🚀 podracing-analyst Follow

the Jedi were a religious order???? not law enforcement???? stop spreading misinformation if you want ppl to take you seriously

the Jedi did have powers of arrest but that was because they were diplomats and bodyguards. they were arresting assassins, corrupt officials, mercenaries, slavers and crime bosses (y'know, people who were actually actively upholding and profiting off of oppressive social conditions), not shoplifters or protestors. the only reason that they came under Senate authority in the first place was because they were actively attempting to prevent themselves from becoming too powerful.

they were also second-class citizens in many ways (unpaid for their labor, no rep in the Senate despite depending on it for support, etc). stop slandering minority religious groups.

🦎 lekkuhaver

also here to say that even if the Jedi were law enforcement, the purge was still a genocide. they had centuries (if not millennia) of history, art, religious practice, and other culture that's just been completely erased. not to mention that literal CHILDREN were slaughtered during knightfall. kids incapable of what you're attributing to them.

#i mean I pretty much agree with the first point being a twi'lek myself #but can we stop misrepresenting the Jedi for two minutes??? #also don't go in the notes it's a bloodbath in there #tw:genocide #tw:child death #discourse tag #lekki talks

@theneutralmime

This isn't an area I'm SUPER familiar with, so I'll put down my thoughts on how I've interpreted the situation based on what we see in the films (and sort-of in TCW), but take it with a grain of salt.

I don't know that I'd say that canon represents the situation between the Gungans and the Naboo as like the Talz and Pantorans in the sense that the Naboo and the Gungans are VERY aware of each other, but the Naboo I think are said to sort-of dismiss the Gungans and they clearly don't really live TOGETHER on the planet. I'm pretty sure it's also implied that, prior to TPM, there wasn't a Gungan representative in the Senate, which does indicate this idea that the Naboo sort-of see the Gungans as... not a subspecies perhaps but definitely SUBSERVIENT to the Naboo. The Naboo are the ruling species on the planet and so the Gungans should not need representation, but then the planet gets invaded and the Naboo have to turn to the Gungans for aid, so obviously some changes have to be made.

My assumption is that Naboo is perhaps also in some ways similar to TATOOINE in that the human population has been there for many years, but that they were not the indigenous species on Naboo. Their ancestors likely invaded Naboo and the Gungans retreated to the water the way the Tuskens retreated to the deserts. The situation certainly isn't as violent as Tatooine's is, but it might have had a similar beginning. I don't know if the Naboo MADE the Gungans go underwater or if the Gungans WENT underwater after the Naboo showed up.

Boss Nass has some dialogue about this when he and Padme speak to each other in TPM, I think, but I'm assuming most of the lore for this comes from legends and extended sources, which isn't something I've explored much at all.

STAR WARS ÉPISODE 1 : LA MENACE FANTÔME (1999)

Le chancelier suprême Valorum envoie le Jedi Qui-Gon Jinn et son apprenti Obi-Wan Kenobi sur le vaisseau de la Fédération qui commande le blocus de la planète Naboo. Ils ont ordre de résoudre rapidement le litige et d'entamer des négociations. Ce qu'ils ne savent pas c'est que Nute Gunray et Sidious ont un autre objectif que la suppression de la taxe commerciale. Des droïdes de combat essaient alors d'éliminer les Jedi, mais sans succès. Les deux chevaliers prennent donc la route du centre de commandement du vaisseau et tentent de mettre la main sur Gunray. Mais les Jedi, dépassés par les forces de l'ennemi, décident de fuir et se cachent dans des transports de troupes. Ils découvrent alors que la Fédération veut en réalité conquérir Naboo.

Une fois sur la planète, Qui-Gon et Obi-Wan font la connaissance d'un autochtone, le Gungan Jar Jar Binks qui a été banni par les siens. Il propose alors à Qui-Gon et Obi-Wan de les mener à Otoh Gunga, la ville subaquatique capitale de son peuple. Là-bas, les Jedi négocient un moyen de transport avec le dirigeant d'Otoh Gunga, Boss Nass. Qui-Gon utilise une manipulation mentale afin de convaincre le dirigeant, qui finit par accepter en leur donnant un vaisseau sous-marin Gungan. Et, en espérant se débarrasser à jamais de Binks, Boss Nass accepte de le laisser partir comme guide aux Jedi.

Le trio s'en va en passant par le noyau de la planète vers Theed, la capitale des humains de Naboo. Arrivés à bon port, les deux Jedi parviennent à libérer la reine des Naboos Padmé Amidala. Ils la convainquent de quitter sa planète envahie pour aider le sénateur Palpatine à plaider sa cause au Sénat galactique sur Coruscant.

Lors de la fuite, leur vaisseau est endommagé et doit se poser d'urgence sur la planète voisine de Tatooine. Alors qu'il est à la recherche de pièces de rechange dans la ville de Mos Espa, Qui-Gon rencontre un jeune humain du nom d'Anakin Skywalker. Il découvre que ce dernier est l'esclave de Watto, le principal ferrailleur de la ville, mais aussi que le garçon est peut-être l'élu d'une ancienne prophétie. Anakin conseille à Qui-Gon de parier avec Watto sur la prochaine course de module qu'il va courir. Watto et le Jedi arrivent à un accord : si Anakin gagne, Qui-Gon remporte les pièces de rechange et Watto garde les gains de la victoire. En cas de défaite, Watto gardera le vaisseau de Qui-Gon. Le matin de la course, le Jedi fait un nouveau pari avec le ferrailleur. Si le jeune coureur gagne, il retrouve sa liberté, s'il perd, son module de course deviendra la propriété de Watto. Après une course acharnée et très disputée, Anakin parvient à remporter la victoire.

Qui-Gon quitte alors Mos Espa avec ses pièces en compagnie d'Anakin dont il veut faire un Jedi. Mais en arrivant au vaisseau, Qui-Gon est attaqué par l'apprenti de Sidious, le Sith Dark Maul. Le Jedi parvient à le repousser pour l’empêcher d'entrer dans le vaisseau. Arrivé sur Coruscant, Qui-Gon fait part au conseil des maîtres Jedi de son agression sur Tatooine. Il leur indique que son opposant pourrait être un Sith. Le maître Jedi Ki-Adi-Mundi a du mal à y croire car les Sith ont disparu depuis fort longtemps. Qui-Gon présente ensuite le jeune Anakin au Conseil, indiquant qu'il semble être l'élu. Ki-Adi-Mundi remarque que le lien d'Anakin avec la Force est titanesque, mais les maîtres Windu et Yoda refusent de le former, pensant qu'il est trop âgé pour se lancer dans une formation de Jedi.

Désormais à l'abri sur Coruscant, la reine Amidala plaide la cause de sa planète au Sénat galactique sans grand succès. Frustrée par la corruption et l'incapacité du Sénat à résoudre le conflit, elle propose une motion de censure à l'encontre du chancelier suprême Valorum. Ce dernier est alors destitué et les sénateurs nomment à sa place Palpatine, qui a profité de la sympathie engendrée par la situation dans laquelle se trouve Naboo. Malgré cette victoire, la reine, qui n'en peut plus d'attendre l'aide du Sénat, décide de repartir sur sa planète accompagnée par Qui-Gon, Obi-Wan et Anakin. Sur place, elle conclut une alliance avec les Gungans de Boss Nass. Elle dévoile alors à ses alliés son plan : les Gungans devront se battre contre toute l'armée de la Fédération pour faire diversion pendant que les pilotes Naboos tenteront de détruire le vaisseau amiral de la Fédération et que la reine essayera de capturer Nute Gunray.

Alors que le plan de la reine Amidala se déroule comme prévu, le seigneur Sith Dark Maul entre à nouveau en scène. Les Jedi Obi-Wan et Qui-Gon décident de l'affronter au sabre laser pour laisser le champ libre à la reine. Quant à Anakin, il se retrouve involontairement aux commandes d'un vaisseau spatial et participe donc à l'attaque contre la flotte de la Fédération. La reine réussit à s'emparer de Nute Gunray tandis qu'Anakin détruit le vaisseau amiral. Tous les droïdes qui s'opposaient aux Gungans se retrouvent alors déconnectés. Mais Obi-Wan et Qui-Gon continuent quant à eux de se battre contre Maul. Après plusieurs minutes de lutte, Obi-Wan se retrouve coincé derrière une barrière énergétique et, impuissant, voit son maître défait et mortellement blessé. La barrière désactivée, Obi-Wan se bat avec rage et finit par vaincre Maul en le tranchant en deux.

Quelque temps plus tard, les maîtres Jedi arrivent sur Naboo pour assister aux funérailles de Qui-Gon, et en profitent pour nommer Obi-Wan au rang de Chevalier Jedi. Pour satisfaire les dernières volontés de Qui-Gon, ils acceptent que le jeune Anakin devienne son apprenti, malgré les mises en garde de Yoda, qui craint un danger dans l'initiation du jeune garçon. Windu confirme ensuite à Yoda que l'assassin de Qui-Gon était bien un Sith. Yoda rappelle alors que les Sith sont toujours deux : un maître et un apprenti. L'un a été tué, mais le survivant reste un danger pour les Jedi et la République.
