#vejaar

If only for the confusion when the Jedi would assume that any Force user who is basically kind-hearted and friendly and doesn’t wear all black or have glowy eyes must be an ancient *Jedi*. Whereas Vejaar would be happy thinking the ecumenical efforts of the Alliance must echo through the centuries for these Jedi to be so chill about having a Sith in their midst.

This would last until a comedically appropriate moment which... let’s face it, would quickly turn into a tragic one.

Vejaar: -trying to dislodge Anakin and Ahsoka from on top of him- What the hell, guys?

Anakin: You lied to us! You never said you were Sith! You’ve been infiltrating us!

Vejaar: I’d have to be a pretty shitty infiltrator then, wouldn’t I?! What with the RED TATTOOS ON MY FACE that I’ve made no effort to cover up! And the references to the Academy and Dromund Kaas -

Anakin & Ahsoka: -blank looks- 

Are you KIDDING me?!

I mean if we just FORGET about the part where he kills millions of people on behalf of the Empire which is literally an analogy for every terrible thing ever? If that’s not BAD ENOUGH for you?

There’s the way we’re supposed to cheer for him because he’s a member of the power class who wants to help the oppressed! OMG! but he thinks he can just plow into people’s lives and start “fixing” things without asking and they’re supposed to be happy? (Don’t even start with me about S3 onwards, if it took him that long to realize he’s got to respect people’s autonomy even with Vette reminding him then he obviously doesn’t really mean it.)

And then the studio tries to sell him as gay representation even though he feeds every possible toxic stereotype about gay men, with the dancing and the makeup and the new love interest every season.

Oh, and let’s not forget the fact he literally fucks Lana in S5 (way to go with the GAY REP there) then dumps her right after she becomes Minister when she could really have used some support. Which is great foreshadowing for the way she gets fucked in S6 when SHE builds up the Alliance from nothing but oh no, can’t have a woman in charge, the only possible leader is the Emperor’s Fuckboy.

[WEALTH]

$ Financial : wealthy / moderate / poor / in poverty

✚ Medical : fit / moderate / sickly / disabled / disadvantaged

He suffered minor neurological damage on Iokath as a result of sitting on a sabotaged superweapon throne thing; it took a good while to heal, largely because the Commander of the Alliance doesn’t get to rest ever.

✪ Class or Caste : upper / middle / working / transient / slave / unsure

✔ Education : qualified / unqualified / studying / other

At the start of his career, definitely unqualified. He came to Korriban with fairly good fighting skills and an excellent knowledge of Kittât and of Sith culture, but not a lot else. He’s been building on his knowledge of the Force and other subjects since, but he’d be the first to admit that there’s always more to learn.

✖ Criminal Record : yes, for major crimes / yes, for minor crimes / no / classified

He’s never actually gone to court, much less been convicted, and these days it would be Highly Impolitic for anyone to make an issue of it, but he still has a couple dozen outstanding warrants in Republic space. Murder, armed assault, grievous bodily harm, destruction of public property, grand theft starship...

Imperial space, well... he’s the WRATH. The Wrath would never commit treason/sedition/heresy/general conduct unbecoming a Sith Lord. And if for some reason you think the Wrath HAS, Darth Marr will explain point 1 one more time.

[ FAMILY ]

◒ Children : has a child or children / has no biological children / wants children / has adopted children

◑ Relationship with Family : close with sibling(s) / not close with sibling(s) / has no siblings / sibling(s) is deceased

Biological siblings are dead (as far as he knows, and depending on AU). He’d tell you he has several siblings though. Some of them know they’ve been adopted, and in what capacity, some don’t.

◔ Affiliation : orphaned / adopted out / disowned / raised by birth family parent(s) / not applicable  

[ TRAITS + TENDENCIES ]

♦ extroverted / introverted / in between

♦ dis-organised / organised / in between

So what if it’s on the floor? It’s just a t-shirt, Quinn. Lighten up.

♦ closed-minded / open-minded / in between

♦ calm / anxious / in between

♦ disagreeable / agreeable / in between

♦ cautious / reckless / in between

♦ patient / impatient / in between

♦ outspoken / reserved / in between

As Baras’ apprentice, and later as the Wrath, he keeps at least SOME of his many, many opinions under wraps.

♦ leader / follower / in between

♦ empathetic / unempathetic / in between

♦ optimistic / pessimistic / in between

♦ traditional / modern / in between

Let’s just say some of the aspects of Sith tradition that Vejaar embraces most fondly are ones that have fallen somewhat out of fashion in Sith society in general.

♦ hard-working / lazy / in between

When there’s something worth working toward, he goes all in. When there isn’t, he’ll still be active a lot because energy has to burn, but he’ll gladly find something silly and useless to pursue.

♦ cultured / uncultured  / in between

♦ loyal / disloyal / unknown

♦ faithful / unfaithful / unknown

[ SEXUALITY & ROMANTIC INCLINATION ]

❤ Sexuality : heterosexual / homosexual / bisexual / asexual / pansexual

He’d tell you he’s bi/pan based on the fact he’s had sex with women and didn’t hate it, but actual attraction is to men/masc folks exclusively.

❥ Sex : sex repulsed / sex neutral / sex favourable / naive and clueless

♥ Romance : romance repulsed / romance neutral / romance favourable / naive and/or inexperienced

❣ Sexually : adventurous / experienced / naive / inexperienced / curious

☠ Combat Skills : excellent / good / moderate / poor / none

≡ Literacy Skills : excellent / good / moderate / poor / none

✍ Artistic Skills : excellent / good / moderate / poor / none

He was training to become a professional dancer before his Force gift manifested, and he’s pretty damn good. Other forms of expression are more spotty.

...granted, when you have the metabolism of a blast furnace and the Force to boot, eating to excess is hard, but if he’d been a normal person he’d definitely overeat.

$ Splurge Spending : never / sometimes / frequently / to excess

2. Who would be interviewed for a documentary about yourmuse? If you want to go in-depth: what kind of picture of your muse would theypaint?

Vejaar – it’d depend on whowas doing the documentary and why. If they were primarily interested in VejaarFell the Alliance Commander, then mainly Lana and Theron if they could be madeto talk, Quinn (ditto), people like Aygo and Oggurobb. Given that’s mostlyeither the people who aren’t as such *friends* with him or wouldn’t divulgeanything private/negative, it’d probably be very much about his leadership styleand his victories and leave Vejaar the person a total cipher.

If it were someone who was reallyinterested in, and already knew a little about, him as a person? Vette. And she’dspill everything. Including sharing the holos she stole from hisgreat-grandmother’s estate, that show him as a chubby-cheeked five year oldwith a mop of curly hair.

Gar – Elara, and before orduring the Zakuulan invasion, it would’ve come across as decidedlyhagiographical, even though she’d be trying to give a fair and balanced review.After his return from captivity, things would be more… complex.

Lim – probably his crew.They’d all give completely conflicting accounts, for reasons ranging from Rishawanting to fuck with the wannabe biographer’s head, to Corso having decidedthat Lim is a Great Guy within five minutes of meeting him and viewing allsubsequent interactions through that filter.

6. If your muse could erase a single event from their memory,would they take the opportunity? What would they erase?

Vejaar – he just might. Notanything that “actually happened” as far as he’s concerned, but some of thestuff Valkoriate put him through while in his dreamscape, like having to killMarr about a dozen times? Yeah, he could live without that.

Gar – no. He’d be too afraidthat being without even one of his formative experiences would change him as a person,and if it wasn’t something formative, why would he care if it’s there or not?

Lim – in some moments, he’djump at the chance to forget his encounter with Azalie, on Nar Shaddaa. He’ssure they’re never going to meet again, and if they did she probably wouldn’tremember who he was or want to let on that she’d made out with someone likehim, and it hurts.

If not that… well, he usedto be a slave. That always means carrying things you shouldn’t have to.

7. If your muse could erase a single thing they’d said ordone from everyone else’s memory, would they take the opportunity? What wouldthey erase?

Vejaar – no. He doesn’t feellike there’s much hope of changing the public perception of him by now, forgood or ill.

Gar – no. A single thingwouldn’t help much, because there was rather more than one incident of himbeing tired and overwhelmed and yelling at Tave for causing chaos.
