Super_Battle_Droid posted:Oh, I also would've like to have known where Grievous kept all his lightsaber trophies, cause I'm sure he was lugging them all around in his cloak. I always invisioned a room in the Invisible Hand of them in glass cases, and with a few Jedi heads mounted on the wall.

kecen posted:Grievous has no real feelings for family or friends? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. That shatters just about every pre-cyborg and "deep delving" fan work in the Grievous fanbase, thankyouverymuch, >:(

Biddybot posted:Anyhoo, here back 'atcha is some response from one old bat of a Grievous fan who was already an adult when the first Star Wars movie hit the theatres... On the whole, I thought you did a commendable job of creating a Grievous background which, firstly, acknowledged a LOT of the official appearances the character's made to date. That couldn't have been easy and you collected and addressed just about all the ones I'm aware of very well.
Biddybot posted:Secondly, I think you did an equally good job of coming up with a good background for what I see as Grievous' main target audience. It was more complex than I expected and I found plenty of the sort of stuff I know kids like, and the illos were very well suited in that sense as well...your Grievous ultimately came off seeming rather like the space version of an Afghan tribal chief and warlord, given a tad of a PC whitewash to make some of his actions a bit more palatible, or at least that's how he came off to me.
Biddybot posted:My only real disappointment--and this is coming from a more personal and adult level now--is that for a guy who's supposed to be an alien, Grievous sure doesn't act like an alien. In fact, if it hadn't been for my own prior knowledge and the odd mention of Kaleesh being tusked and reptilian and such (and the illos, of course), there's absolutely nothing in either article that would have made me think the Kaleesh were anything but a bunch of space-going SF humans, different culturally perhaps, but not so in any important biological, mental or emotional way. I suppose there just wasn't time to think out a whole different species background per se from the evolutionary roots up, yet still wish there could have been a few tiny hints of some profound differences, sigh... BUT, again, that's mainly personal preference. SW aliens as a whole have always struck me as seeming more like goofy-looking ethnics than science-based, other-worldly species anyway, and that never bothered me before, so even I have to admit that it seems a bit petty of me to whine about this at all just because I've finally found a SW dude who really interests me...
Biddybot posted:In closing then, good job, and thanks once more! I'll be keeping an eye out for any further addendums to your Grievous work to date, and do hope you consider doing more 'Grevousy' projects in the future.
Halagad_Ventor posted:Weird Science is still every boy's dream.
Halagad_Ventor posted:Many thanks, Biddybot! We've got Vader's Legacy in a few months, and I'm currently working on a new project with that other irreverent rogue Ryan Kaufman. They'll rue the day they teamed us up!
