OGG Publisher's Office: Now handling requests and complaints

[ElladanKenet]

Well, we can make a point of saying that. In fact, we could make a seperate entry for classifications, like Sentinel, Consular, and Guardian, and breakdown about how many abilities each would know.

For example, most Guardians would know Force Speed and Power, along with other abilities that bolstered their saber skills.

Consulars, on the other hand, would focus on Force abilities such as Mind Trick and Force Absorb, and would have a wider variety of powers.  

[Sol Walker]

Nah.
Ive seen Guardians do Force absorb and Mind tricks.
Its all about taking a handful of skills and honing them to a fine art.
Nobody is good at everything.  

[ElladanKenet]

I never said they were.  

[Sol Walker]

I know.
But its something that bears repeating.  

[Nelowulf]

The problem with the breakdown is that though you may be a consolar, you're not necessarily going to have remotely the same skills as another consolar.

Its just better to leave this little force power out... If for no other reason, the list keeps changing.

I recently wrote a paper on the design of Queen Amidala's costumes for my Theater class and was wondering if you would be interested in it for an entry on Naboo fashion. I have info on all of Padme's costumes but I had a 1000 word limit. What do you say?  

[Sol Walker]

Go for it.
Thats one topic that hasnt been covered at all in the OGG: Clothing.
Usually its planets and aliens and ships and guns, but this suggestion is a welcome change.
Just make sure you post it here before throwing it in the OGG so I can check it over once.

Entry: Anzati

Capsule:

Legends, no matter which galaxy you're in, are told. Stories which are told to children to keep them in line, or explanations for those things which cannot be explained normally. This is what the Anzati are. Known by many nicknames, such as "luck-suckers", "snot-vampires", or "grey-matter eaters", these creatures are much like the defel, shrouded in mystery, but completely real.

Near-Humans, Anzati seem to be more like superhuman. Long lived (often times around 1000 year lifespan), an Anzat can also regenerate from wounds far faster than a normal human, and are known to be strongly telepathic. Of course, the Anzati need all the help they can get. This race is heavily isolated, even from each other. They rarely return to their homeworld once they leave it. Sexual drive may cause an urge to return to Anzat to mate, but mostly these creatures are in the galaxy.

Anzat can be distinguished most plainly from the humans from a pair of tentacles protruding from pouches in their cheeks used to "suck the luck" of a victim. When these tentacles are retracted, anzat are indistinguishable from normal humans. There is a slight tendency for a fatter, broader nose in some of the older, experienced creatures, but this is not a staple phenotype to rely upon.

The anzati culture is non-existant at best; as isolated as they are, its not surprizing they would have little heritage. However, the most widely known profession of this species could fit their culture. Many of the Anzati become bounty hunters and assassins. Already well known to be terrible creatures of children's nightmares, the repuatation gives them the rep most other species need to work for. Combine that with longevity and inhuman abilities, these creatures could easily fit into the underworld of the underworld, often times working in the darkest and dankest environments to hunt down the worst criminals and rivals for crimelords. What could be scarier than an immortal vampire, unable to be detected by thermal scanners (no body heat or pulse), who is an assassin to boot?

One of the core principals of the Anzati is the "soup" which all organisms carry. The tentacles allow for the drinking of this "soup", though it is still widely unknown as to what the "soup" entails. Some say it is the brains, others say its a force which is not material. Either way, this drink of the Anzati is one of the most driving forces they hold. So strong is the pull to drink, no anzat has ever been a jedi without being corrupted. Also known are Feral Anzati, which could scare even the most educated anzat. The one thing known about the soup is this: A combination of intelligence and luck make up the drink, so people such as Thrawn or Solo are mouth-watering from 100 feet away.

There have been some Anzat hit the "known" status. Dannik Jeriko is the most famous example of this mythed race. He has appeared throughout the galaxy near some of the more popular people, such as Solo, Kenobi, and others. Working for a price most considered unreasonable, he preyed upon the scum of the scum of the galaxy, the murderers, theives, rapists, and capital punishment, those whom could be said to "not be missed"...  

[Sol Walker]

Ok.
Can you get a picture?  

[Nelowulf]
