Good Things To Know From The Start: The Untold Chapters are a continuation of a story written exclusively for the Write Your Own Piece of Star Wars History Yahoo Group. Because what is posted in the Files section there grew as long as it did yet Katrina's story continued to nag at my mind persistantly, Untold Chapters was started. Here you will read about the years skipped over in the originally telling. Katrina: Katrina is recognized as Palpatine’s most powerful child, though few realize that it is due to her powers as a Zanespot of the Past. Born with black and blue striped hair, a strong resemblance to her father, and gray eyes banded with gold she is often proclaimed odd or ugly and generally sits apart from all others. Shortly before leaving for Endor, Palpatine gave orders for 13-year-old Katrina to be locked in a holding cell within the compound until his return, in punishment for an unfortunate event some time earlier and her complete refusal to give in to his will. Luckily for Katrina Darth Vader happened to visit the compound before leaving for Endor and took pity on the girl, already weakened by his mixed feelings for his son. Vader helped Katrina escape the compound and left her in the wilds of Manooglious Prime where she was picked up by Cha-Lee and Xenritha. Because of the uncertain status of the flailing Empire and Katrina’s paternity the older Zanespots thought it safest to live apart from the girl for a time. Zanespot: As the Jedi multiplied and proved themselves useful all over the galaxy, Guardian found himself unneeded. Knowing that he and his powers would one day be needed again he chose the nine most powerful and trustworthy of the Jedi to protect over his spirit. Guardian split himself/his power into three equal pieces of time, Past, Present, and Future. Because each was so very powerful still he split those into three equal pieces and bestowed one portion onto the nine chosen Jedi. When all nine came together and focused their energies and minds they would call Guardian back into being. Zanespots are not immortal. When the Zanespot dies his/her/its power immediately moves to a newly conceived Force-sensitive child. Zanespots traditionally live in groups of three, known as a Tri (also the name of the structure they call home), one of each time period. When the three of the Tri put their energies and minds together they could share their minds and powers. Though Zanespots how the power to look and move through time and space they are unable to manipulate it. They see events, recognize thoughts and emotions, and draw conclusions based on what they know and see. It is because of this power to see over time that the Zanespots are incapable of belonging wholly to either the light or dark sides. The word Zanespot comes from the ancient Jedi language for Power Keepers. Guardian: A god-like being that is responsible for the creation of the galaxy and keeper of all time. As the galaxy grew and expanded he created the Jedi to help watch over his creation and keep peace. Though not actually male or female, when appearing to humanoids he generally took on the appearance of a male human. |
