As the premise of the story says, Relsor captures Trylia and gets his hands on the secret datapad that is said to contain information about him and his power.
In the scene below, Relsor and Trylia watch the contents of this datapad, the holocids that had been recorded on it. They are holding hands for Trylia believes she can turn Relsor to the light side.
I used my SWTOR in-game character Shayder for Relsor, and my in-game character Tiamat for Trylia. For her, I changed the colour of her skin and lekku. Then I placed them on a new background. I also moved their arms a bit with some Photoshop tools.

The story image is a simple one. I like to keep these as simple as I can whenever I can. It is the datapad that contains the vital information about Relsor. I used a datapad from SWTOR that Chiss characters have for their species ability. Then placed it on a different background. It is floating with the Force. I put in a mild shadow. I’m not sure if I should have made the shadow more potent or not.

As always, I’m open to feedback.

In Story 7, Lian has to face his greatest fear, sensing much. He is a central character in the events of this story and his choices carry over in the stories of the series to come.
To depict Lian, I created a character in SWTOR specifically for his depictions, a blue Twi’lek. This one was a simple one to do, choosing a screenshot of a background of the Jedi Knight ship that could look like a Jedi archive on Tython. Lian’s expression is with one of the game’s Emotes Moods. Basic Photoshop editing was required for colour correction, lighting adjustments, and the “border” of light around the character. I like this one, despite its simplicity. It is a meaningful scene in the story.

Next is the story image. Each story image is always an object or something of significance, never a character per se. I used a background and created two lightsabers, Lian’s silver-white lightsaber, and one of Relsor’s red lightsabers (he wields two). I had fun paying around with various brushes to creates the sparks of the clash, and then I blurred the background significantly.
By the way, I now have a proper gaming PC, so I’ve been rerecording gameplay of my characters I use to depict fanfic story characters to take better screenshots. I mean, it’s still a ten year old game, so the quality is not as high definition as a game made today, but the screenshots are sharper than before and they allow me to do more with my characters in Photoshop.

As you can see, however, farther shots of characters still come one a bit blurry, especially when I’m making them bigger for my image, but it depicts the fight between Lian and Relsor taking place on Mandalore. I’m not sure I got the jump angle correctly though. I think the addition of shadows helps, which I’ve started to get good at. It’s a simple task of adding a layer, selecting the character, painting that area of the layer black, playing with the opacity, adding a Gaussian Blur, and then adjusting the angle and length of the shadow layer.

I know in the future I will need to improve and perfect the severed lekku for Lian. This image was a last minute addition, though it is a start for practice. Though in the future, he’ll not have a fresh wound at the sever point, I’ll need to remember where the lekku is shortened and at what angle. Kind of like remembering to add wrinkles or scars to specific characters.
This is Lian at the Crypt, the asteroid rock that has its own gravity and air supply. A rock-like planet type station turned crypt that houses many ancient Jedi and Sith relics.

Seekers of Darkness is Story 4 of my Star Wars The Old Republic era and style fan-fiction.
The Jedi recover after the massive attack on Coruscant, while Jedi Master Lian works on healing the Force from the malady created by Relsor’s existence. The Mandalorians regroup, but Clan Kandera now finds itself without a leader. Meanwhile, Relsor and Perce go in search of hidden power in order to enhance their abilities, so they can then claim the galaxy as theirs for all to bow to their will.
I love Solas from Dragon Age: Inquisition, and I love the Chiss species from the Star Wars galaxy. I was doing some Photoshop dodads, and this just happened: Solas as a Chiss. It’s my Solas from Trespasser Dragon Age Star Wars Cross-Over.
