    You learn something new every day, Lelila!

    Casta Diva, unfortunately, I cannot speak any of the Romance languages. Just German.

    BTW, kudos for your well thought out and intelligent posts in LadyCallie's thread. Although the Mara and Callie fans disagree with each other on our opinions with both characters, we usually get along fine (and even help write Mara/Callie fanfics together)! Hey, I was wondering if you would like to check out What if Callista... and Maternal Instincts in the Fan Fiction Forum. They're very good stories, and you can even help write them.

    Actually, 'Callista' is Greek for most beautiful. I'm not an expert in the dead languages, but I do know some French:

    Callista: donne-la la Force! (give her the Force!)
    Fait la retour du Callista! (Bring Callista back!)

    I don't know, I still like...

    Cara: right you are about "Callista" meaning "the most beautiful" . Barbara Hambly did not pick that name out of the air--most authors give their characters names that have a significance

    Sorry, Cara! I couldn't see the most recent posts for a while. I was afraid that the thread had gone corrupt. Looks like the administrators finally fixed this problem.

    Anyways, Teniel and I updated some more on Maternal Instincts. Sorry for the drought this week, but my parents say I can't get on the InterNet on weekdays, only on weekends.

    But at least it's almost summer!

    CALLISTA RULES!!!

    BTW, I didn't know that "Callista" meant "most beautiful" in Greek! Kewl! cool.gif

    One step ahead of you, Casta Diva! Jedi Callie, Wormie2, and I have already posted there several times, and plan on doing so for a while. You know, it's occurred to me that although the Mara and Callista fans disagree on a lot of things, we both have one thing in common: we all like Luke.

    Thanks!

    CALLISTA AND LUKE RULE!!!

    Yeah, I know. I've been practically going through withdrawal with lack of posting! I don't get it. My parents say I shouldn't get on the computer because of my grades, and yet I'm making all A's and B's. What's up with that? mad.gif

    &lt;sigh&gt; I'll never understand my parents.

    BTW, Luke, have you checked out our newest fanfic yet, Maternal Instincts? Any help would be appreciated! I'll come back later with some links to it.

    Sure, why not?

    Okay, I'm back! Here are the links to the two Callista fanfics we're writing:

    Forum16/HTML/000002.htmlWhat if Callista...

    Forum16/HTML/000546.htmlMaternal Instincts

    What if Callista... is now finished, and we're halfway through Maternal Instincts. It deals with Callista's pregnancy and the rise of a new breed of Nightsisters on Dathomir. IMHO, it's even better than our first story!

    One last thing: if any of you have the time, could you please check out some of the various other fanfics I'm writing or helping to write:

    Forum16/HTML/000012.htmlBoba Fett vs. Aurra Sing

    Forum16/HTML/000773.htmlBoba Fett vs. Aurra Sing (Part 2)

    Forum16/HTML/000106.htmlDaala Torture Fanfic

    Thank you!

    Jedi15: Now, I'm one step ahead of YOU! I've already pointed out our universal love for Luke on the Mara thread.

    I still haven't read all the posts on this thread yet, and some of you might have brought up this topic. Callista is created in EU so there isn't an exact image we have for her. So is the same with Mara Jade. Which image of Callist that is the most satisfactory to you? Although I admit I'm not that fanatic about her as you do, I do have one picture of her that I like. Have you seen the woman beside Luke on the cover of "Children of the Jedi". I presume that is Callista. She seemed dissolved in the background but her face is definite enough. Oh jeez, that image is divine! It fits into every ideal. It captured Callista's ethereal temperament and the image exudes in a cantabile feeling. I've nerver been too pleased with her portrayal in other stuff (e.g., encyclopedias), but this one is etched in my mind.

    Greeting
    I don't think I seen this pic of Callista already posted. If someone beat me to it I'll take it down.

    Anyway here it is

    Well, I've only seen two images of Callista. One is a pic that I posted on the very first page of this thread. Another is the portrait of her face on the cover of Children of the Jedi.

    <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Geneva,Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>Although I admit I'm not that fanatic about her as you do, I do have one picture of her that I like.

    Yep, that's her all right! Although she actually has brown hair, not blond, as the picture showed. Yeah, she does seem ethereal in that pic, almost like a goddess of some sort. It would make a very nice poster.

    After seeing that, I could understand why Hambly decided to name her after a Greek word that means "most beautiful".

    And as for Mara...I think she was portrayed on the cover of The Last Command (an excellent book, I may add), but we only saw her backside, and she was fighting the Luuke Skywalker clone. And wasn't she also on the Vision of the Future also? Although she looked kinda ugly on that one.

    And for that Star Wars Encyclopedia you mentioned...UGH! That has some of the UGLIEST pictures I've ever seen of characters, not just Callista. I mean, have you seen those pictures of Daala, Kyp, and Tionne, just to name a few? Whoever drew those pictures should be fired!

    Anyways...

    LUKE AND CALLISTA RULE!!!

    Jedi15, I thought the Daala Torture fanfic was dead and buried. Besides which, it seems to have become one with the server.
