JEDI ORDER CITATIONS IN STAR WARS CANON, PART V [A Meta/Reference Guide on AO3] Welcome to my Jedi Culture and Teachings in Canon series, where I collate various quotes from current canon to provide a worldbuilding and reference guide, whether for better fic writing, just general interest in getting to know the Star Wars lore better, or if you want to be able to pull out some quotes when you're fighting the internet on behalf of the fictional space wizards. ;) So, what's here? Basically anything I think would be of interest to people who want to know what the Jedi are like in the canon--any worldbuilding bits (what special abilities do the Jedi have? do the Jedi have art? do they have funeral rites? what do we know about Knighting ceremonies? what are the themes of the Force? are the Jedi telepaths or empaths and what scenes in canon support that? what do we know about Jedi schooling?), any quotes from Lucas himself, all arranged in categories to help you find what you're looking for. Feel free to take this guide or leave it, it's not about telling other people what to do, if you scroll on by, that's fine, I'm not your mom, do what you want. But if you want to know what the Jedi have to say about Force bonds or what kind of clothing they way or everything we know about the main ziggurat of the Jedi Temple, I got you covered, babe. This section is admittedly overly large, where previously I would get to about 25k words of citations and post the next part, feeling that was a manageable chunk for readers. But with The Acolyte coming out, I made a challenge to myself to get caught up on all of The High Republic before it aired and I drop citations in as I'm reading, so suddenly I found myself with nearly 50k of citations and I was feeling in the groove, I had all my references easily accessible, I was getting through my backlog, I had access to some of the roleplaying guides, I was seeing a light at the end of the tunnel, and, wham, suddenly it's ~70k and here I am now. But that's 70k of examples of what the Jedi say and do, my best attempt to give context to show the consistent themes and parallels within the Jedi Order all across this continuity. How to use this guide? Well, you do you, for starters! But I hope you'll read the intros, as often some books need to be put in specific contexts, and if you have any suggestions for future categories or better organization, feel free to mention it! I do this for me, but I format it for sharing, so I'm game! Feel free to check out previous sections for more examples, and just scroll through to skim the bolded sections to try to find what you're looking for, since not everything always fits neatly into a single given category! (Or just ask me! I love being a nerd about Star Wars worldbuilding.) The guide is broken down into seven sections as before:
How the Force Works
Jedi Culture & Philosophy & Teachings
Jedi As a People
Psychic Space Wizards Doing Psychic Space Wizard Things
Jedi Temple (Living Quarters, Training Rooms, Meditation Gardens and Dining Halls !)
Jedi Outreach, Politics, and the Bigger Galaxy
Fantasy Flight Games Are Not Canon But Canon-Compliant Is Close Enough
Jedi, Buddhism, and Everything Else

Okay so if you are on tiktok you probably seen atleast one comment with this "Zepotha" trend and i've seen people call it the next Goncharov.
I have followed the artist on tiktok before this, and i think the music is very cool, and if i'm being honest this is would be very interesting marketing, if it had a cohesive lore. (And the fact that the artist basically asking for free marketing, and only paying 500 dollars is a little bit meh...) When Goncharov was around at first I really thought it was a real movie, but Zepotha just doesn't feel like it. It is on my fyp soo i will try to gather information on the lore, because it could be verry interesting.
So here are the things i gathered:
- It is marketing for an artist called emilyjeffri (just crediting)
- It does not have a consistent genra (dont know how you write it) but the og creator promotes it as 80's slasher (ive seen distopyan horror and eldritch horror to it. This is why its a problem that it doesnt have a consistent lore)
- The characters that the artist seams to accept as canon are from a filter and a comment (i know not much, but the artist just thrusted people of making oc's and i can't list all of them, and i am still doing research on the charas that are accepted by the fandom), and give a brief description from what i gathered:
Danny and Cole: seams like thay are the main murderers,
Rita: the first? One to die,
Maxine and Alain: probs the main charas, they are the main ship or are a couple.
These are the charas that i found anything on, next are the ones from the filter or a comment left by the OGC
Ann
Vince
Alex
Michael
Robbie
Neil
Kalani
Jasmine
But wait it gets better. Somebody saing that MAXINE AND ALAIN ARE SISTERS AND THEY ARE DATING DANNY AND COLE. I'M GETTING AN ANEURYSM (This is not a real movie its a massive joke, no hate to anybody, but i want to make sense to it. Pls send help)
Okay i'm having way too much fun with this
Whenever Americans use Cryillic like. That. I just. Instantly shrivel up an cry
The best piece of advice I ever got was not meant as advice, but as an edict. If I was going to threaten people as a joke, it had to be so far out of proportion with what happened that it would be obvious I was joking. This changed how I expressed frustration with others. It then changed how I expressed frustration with myself.
Not “I’m going to hit you” but “I am going to buy a tuna sub from the gas station and hide it under the seat of your car”
Not “I’m going to kill myself” but “I am going to walk into the desert and let the scarabs take me”
The other side then happened. When I mess something up, instead of saying it’s bad and perpetuating negative thoughts, swing hard the other way.
Not “this art is terrible” but “this shall be framed and mounted on the wall in my museum exhibition as testament to the suffering I had to overcome”
Have been doing this since high school. It was my drama teacher who asked me to please stop scaring the actors. The other half of the edict was that I had to say it in a polite tone, and end it with either please or thank you.
Life changing. 10/10 Mr Muëller. Highly reccomend.
hey if you’re in the U.S. and use food stamps or know somebody who does i found this online cookbook that has recipes for eating well on approximately $4/day :o)
I need some help looking for a movie.
I think it was a cinderella retelling but darker? And maybe it was french. If i remember correctly the beast accidentally killed the nature goddess.
And there is this scene when ‘Belle’ falls into the water and the beast pulls her out by her corset. And it had many small bloodhounds and magic water.
I have the name ‘Azure’ in my head, but when i tried looking up french version of cinderella nothing came out. And i really loved that movie. If somebody knows could you tell me please?
Sorry if this question is kind of vague but how do you choose a canvas size? The way people talk about canvas sizes in tutorials for pixel has always left me confused.
it basically depends on what you're trying to do. for my portraits i stay small around 100x100 - 150x150. the reason i do that is because i like the way i can stylize the features and keep everything else in proportion.
if you're doing an animated character you would probably want the canvas smaller (if its for a game). if i'm doing a full scene then usually somewhere around 200x200 - 300x300.
for my full landscapes i set my canvas at 1920x1080 in aseprite, then divide it by 5 (you can do maths in aseprite- pretty cool). that way my canvas blows up x5 to a desktop wallpaper size. that's my preference, you might prefer x3 or x6.
thats why knowing what you're doing makes it a bit easier. i would just ask yourself 'how much space do i need for my important features' and use that as a base- dont be afraid to just make the canvas bigger if you need to. i never stick to any standard canvas size or palette and just change things to get to my desired outcome
hope that helps :--3 !
edit: thinking about the question a bit more, it might be because people tend to recommend things like 32x32 or 64x64 or 128x128 and so on.
16x16 32x32 and 64x64 are generally quite standard for game stuff, i tend to do my tiles at 16x16 or 32x32. but if you arent working on a project they largely dont matter unless you want to practise such things. if youre interested in illustration like me (assuming you are cos youre in my inbox) it shouldnt matter to you really! just do whats comfy!
Hey artists, C. Spike Trotman, founder of Iron Circus Comics, just posted an invaluable thread on depicting different types of black hair. I’d do the thing where you screencap the whole thread and post it but it’s just too long (which is great because it’s a whole lot of useful information!) Give her a follow while you’re there.
Anyway, go check it out. I just wanted to save it and share it because I didn’t know how much I didn’t know!
Hii!! I like to write and draw Minor!! Have a nice day/night For the layout, I used the theme: Stereo by nonspace
