The Battle of Christophsis was one of the first major conflicts in the Clone War. I will give you the step by step of both the Grand Army of the Republic's strategy, as well as the united confederacy of planets. I will also tell you the battle plans of each side, the generals and leaders in the battle, and the troops each side had. A couple of months after the Battle of Geonosis, Count Dooku dispatched assassin Asajj Ventress and General Whorm Loathsom to capture Christophsis due to it's very strategic location on the Corellian Run and it's resources, while Admiral Trench blockaded the planet with 30 warships to prevent Republic forces from liberating the planet. As a result, the Republic had sent a relief force with Senator Bail Organa to help aid the people of Christophsis who had become trapped during the invasion. Organa, leading the relief effort. Eventually, the Christophsians were forced to plea with the Republic for help due to worsening conditions an...

In most popular communities/Fandoms there seems to always be a zombie like creature a one point or another. Star Wars is one of those. "Darth Drear wrote that he had found an elixir for staving off death itself, the ingredients of which he recorded in the Holocron-including of course your beloved orchid. The mixture was complete in and of itself, with a single flaw-the inevitable dissolution of the tissue" -Darth Scabrous The Sickness, later being known as Imperial Bio-weapons Project I71a, was a disease created by the process of Sith Alchemy. The disease targeted the victims biological tissue and destroyed it and in the process turned victims into undead monsters. Originally created by Darth Drear on the planet Odacer-Faustin, the disease was intended to give immortality to its maker, Drear failed multiple times and eventually fell victim to his own creation. One thousand years later, the Sith lord Darth Scabrous attempted to recreate the virus, hoping to succeed w...

One of my personal favorite planets in the Star Wars universe is Mandalore. Mandalore is a planet in the outer rim territories. The inhabitants that live there are Mandalorians. I will give you a guide through the planet, the people, the way of life, and the concepts and traditions. Mandalore First off I will talk to you about the features of the planet itself. Mandalore itself is a moon with white, hot, deserts with a breathable atmosphere. However due to the intense climate, living on the bare surface is impossible. In order to rectify this problem, mandalorians built bio-domes that made an enclosed area of the planet hospitable and truly magnificent.  One of the Bio-Domes that contains the capital of mandalore The cities of Mandalore are a sight to behold and are truly beautiful and magnificent. Many of the structures actually resemble more of a glass like version of New York City in my opinion.  A park in Mandalore, Serene and Beautiful Mandalore c...

In the Force Awakens, everyone got introduced to the new villain, Kylo Ren, whose lightsaber made him unique. What if I were to tell you it wasn't and in was in fact part of a battle on the planet Malachor. The cross guard lightsaber was originally created during a battle called the Scourge of Malachor in which Jedi and Sith both fought with the verge of a super weapon being unleashed. The cross guard lightsaber had to have a cracked kyber crystal in order for the lightsaber to actually work. The way this works is that the cracked kyber crystal needs to vent excess energy, so in order to do so, vents are created on the side which give this lightsaber a more traditional sword look. See the venting of the energy near the crystal There have been only 2 cross guard lightsabers show in star wars canon. One of them was found on the planet Malachor by Ezra Bridger, the blade lasted for about 5 seconds before sputtering out. So thats all for cross guard lightsabers, May the ...

In the Star Wars universe, there are a select few planets in which the Force is very strong in. Many of these planets are places where either the light or dark side strongly resides in. Here are a few of the nexuses that I know of. Mortis I already covered this location in my Force Wielders post, but I didn't go over the location itself. When 3 Jedi visited the location (see Force wielders for the specific jedi) one of them asked another if they could sense how strong the force was in Mortis and how much stronger it is in mortis than in anywhere else. This is understandable as it was the home of the 3 Force Wielders.  Dagobah Dagobah, one of the major planets in the original Star Wars trilogy is another planet that is strong in the force. This is one of the main reasons why it is so easy for force ghosts like Ben and Qui-gon. This is also why Yoda chose to stay here during his exile due to it's strong connection to the Force. There is a cave in Dagobah in which th...

In Star Wars the lightsaber is an elegant weapon, but only for those who know how to use it properly. Light saber combat is a key component in many lightsaber battles. Without it, you would be mindlessly swinging around a laser sword randomly with no pattern or opening in your opponent. There are 7 forms of lightsaber combat, each has a different attack style and strength and weakness. Here are the forms. First of is the first form of lightsaber combat known as Shi-Cho or "the way of the Sarlacc" or simply the determination form. It was designed for engaging multiple enemies and was not reccomended for those who were facing a single enemy as a single opponent could find an opening in the clumsy strikes. Shi-Cho in action The second form is known as Makashi and is more lightsaber dueling concentric and is served as a counter to form 1 Shi Cho. Users who wished to be effective with Makashi would have a specialized lightsaber made usually a curved hilt as it fit better ...

In Mandalore, there is a respected symbol of the clan of house Vizla. It is the dark saber, constructed during the days of the old republic by Tarre Vizla, the first mandalorian ever to be inducted into the Jedi Order. When he passed the Jedi kept his unique lightsaber in the Jedi temple, until members of House Vizla snuck in and "liberated" it. Since then it was passed down from generation to generation. It is a respected symbol of all the clans of Mandalore. The Darksaber is most unique for it's actual blade like design and its unique black blade. The Darksaber This saber was in possession by the leader of the group called Death Watch, Pre Vizla.  Later on, Maul killed Vizla and won the saber. Later, Sabine Wren from Phoenix squadron acquired it and trained to wield it. Maul wielding his own lightsaber and the darksaber against Darth Sidious Sabine with the Darksaber Later on, Sabine gives it to the late Duchess Satine Kryze's sister, Botaine Kryz...

The Light side was the lighter and good aspect of the force and was mostly utilized by the Jedi. The light side also known as Ashla (named after one of the moons of the planet Tython) had abilities that were focused on not doing harm to an individual except force push. These abilities such as Force heal were focused on helping others. A jedi utilizing force heal A noticeable Jedi power was the mind trick, which could be used to influence a mind and make them do things out of their control. The most famous being when Obi-wan told a storm trooper these aren't the droids they were looking for.  The light side was strict on a calm and collected mind as emotions led to recklessness and impatience which clouded the users judgement. The light side also was focused in using powers that contradicted the powers of the dark side. One of the powers that contradicted the dark side was called tutaminis which was the power to absorb power from force lightning, a sith power, and other ener...

There is a legend of a monolith in the Chrylethium system that pulls in ships looking for the fabled Chosen One. It is no legend anymore. The ones were a group of celestial beings whose job was to guard and represent the force. There was the Father who was the middle ground, The daughter who aligned herself with the light side of the force, and the Son who aligned himself with the dark side of the force. These three individuals were known as force wielders and could manipulate the force like no other. the Father who represents the middle ground The daughter who represents the light the Son, who embodies the dark side These three individuals were so powerful in the force, they could deflect lightsabers and even turn into animals.  These 3 force wielders were eventually killed when Anakin Skywalker, Ahsoka Tano, and Obi-wan Kenobi came to Mortis.

The Dark side of the force was the darker and more evil aspect of the force, wielded mostly by the Sith. The Dark side was considered more powerful than the light, as it unlocked new abilities that the Jedi deemed dangerous and evil and therefore banned it. The Dark side also known as Bogan, (named after one of the moons of the planet Tython) unlocked abilities such as force lightning and force choke. It relied on the users emotions and corrupted said user. One of the trademarks of the dark side of the force in the force user was the user's eyes turned yellow. The Grand inquisitor with his sith eyes The Grand Inquisitor when he was a Knight of the Jedi order The dark side also was more seductive and dangerous to a potential user. If an untrained user in the force were to use the dark side without being corrupted by it, they would feel a coldness and in some cases faint. Other individuals who were trained in the force well enough can also use the dark...

Kyber crystals are the key component in lightsabers as they are what project the laser itself and makes it take a unique color. Without a kyber crystal, a lightsaber would be a useless metal handle. There are many uses for kyber crystals in the star wars universe besides being the key in lightsabers. Kyber crystals can be used as a power source and amplifier for lasers a key example being the death star. Kyber crystals have also been shown to be connected to the force. Sith dominate their kyber crystals which causes them to "bleed" and turn red therefore giving the Sith their trademark red lightsabers. A force user can "heal" a red kyber crystal causing it to turn white again. Ahsoka Tano did this when she healed two red crystals from an inquisitors lightsaber. There is your daily star wars topic for today. I will also be posting a long discussion on the concept of Gray Jedi. Until then, may the force be with you!
