    I am writing a story that takes place from the suited DV rising on the slab to the take over of the Tantive IV, and I need a title.

    I don't have any specific suggestions for you, but you might want to check the JC Title Challenge Thread. There are plenty of titles there (listed somewhere around page eight or nine, I believe) that might be helpful.

    What about "Rise," or some variant on Palpatine's infamous line? I've already seen a couple of stories with variations on that line as their title, but it seems to fit.

    Titles are hard. :p Hence the following questions.

    Was there something you wanted to get across through the title? Like, use it as a plot summary or a hint of something about the characters? Sometimes thinking about those things helps.

    Or, if you can think of a song that kind of fits the mood of the story, lyrics can make good titles.

    Or did you just want something simple? I can think of one, but it might be slightly spoilerish to anyone who would get the reference. It's kind of a joke I made up. :p

    Um, isn't that a 20-year period? You could call it, "The Extremely Long Epic Drawnout Story of Darth Vader aging..."

    Sorry.... ;)

    Don't try to name the book before you write it because offten you're story well change along the why. When your done with it and its finshed. then re read it. And you should find name. It works for me hopely it'll work you to. Oh yeah you miant figer out a name will your writeing it you never know.
