It is the 33rd century, war still rages endlessly, and amongst the stars humanity remains fractured. The Galactic Empire, forged on the carcass of the old Republic, persists with its conquest for complete and unparalleled domination over the vast reaches of the cosmos, and to purge that which they see unfit as they spread their perversion of what the Republic once stood for. While independent rebel forces with their minuscule manpower each push back against The Emperor's cruel regime with all their might, they suffer tremendous casualties and are executed with exceptional cruelty.
This new spark of a Galactic Civil War has already lit a fire too big to quell now, and will only get stronger. The Empire already has torn apart countless star systems, the inhabitants either joining the untold billions of the Empire, or being crushed under their heel.
To be a man in such times is to live in fear, fear of the unchanging cruelty from the Emperor's iron fist, fear of stepping out of line. There is little hope in the midst of the scent of death and the cruel laughter of Imperial Officers, yet many hold on.
Meanwhile in a distant and quiet forest of Kashyyyk, unscorched by blaster fire, a surviving Jedi and her family resides. Soon however, that will change, as the Empire has located the family. A young child known as Rosetta Carmine, child of the hunted Jedi, resides in a shack in a Wookie village unaware of how drastically this day will change the trajectory of her life, and the galaxy as a whole.
Act 1 is very heavily influenced by The Force Unleashed 1
Act 2 is still in development
(Descriptions will be updated as more is written, there will also be a lot of revisions bc I'm always changing shit so my apologies for that. Everything in this story is subject to change)

Shattered Darkness | Star Wars Fan Story
For a thousand years, the galaxy believed the Sith were nothing more than a memory-extinguished by ancient wars and erased from Jedi history. Yet behind the Republic's prosperity and the Jedi Order's complacent peace, a darker truth endured. The Sith had not vanished. They had evolved. Forged by Darth Bane's ruthless Rule of Two, the Sith survived in secrecy: one Master to command the dark side, and one Apprentice to hunger for it. Across generations, they hid in the shadows, strengthening their lineage while the Jedi turned their gaze toward politics and philosophy. Now, centuries after Bane's death, the Rule of Two stands more refined-and more dangerous-than ever. The current Dark Lord, the enigmatic Darth Valsirr, rules without armies or acclaim, moving unseen across forgotten worlds. In the ruins of ancient empires, he gathers forbidden knowledge and listens to the Force's trembling warnings. Something is awakening in the Outer Rim. A presence vast, primal, and unlike anything sensed since the age of the ancient Sith. A dormant power the Jedi overlook-and the Sith cannot ignore. As the Force stirs and the galaxy unknowingly edges toward upheaval, Darth Valsirr sets out to find the source of this rising storm: a child whose existence will reshape the destiny of both Jedi and Sith. The Sith have endured in darkness. Now, they prepare to rise.
Shadows and Ash: A Star Wars Story
It's been three years since Osiris was awarded a medal from the Republic for his services during the war with the Sith. Ironically he had been an integral part in its downfall this time, being an Ex-Sith himself. Now he found himself alone, and seemingly without purpose, he wondered what the force meant for him; so he sought it out on his own, into the far reaches of the unknown regions of the galaxy. It was there he realized that he desired strength, the strength to crush his foes beneath him, the strength to rid the galaxy of those who would wish to sew destruction and discourse. He realized these threats were everywhere, Jedi and Sith alike. This desire would thrust him back into an evil plot that would send the galaxy into another full scale war, causing this desire to be put to the test, as no path forward would be without great loss, the galaxy was too far gone. Osiris would still seek strength, and in finding that strength, realize that its weight is often a burden. NOTE: I do not own Star Wars, this is complete fanfiction of an already great franchise. This is my first work in the world of the Old Republic that we don't normally get to see. This is ongoing and there will be new chapters/parts, I hope to post updates periodically; Enjoy!
Ancient Memories (Male Jedi OC x Star Wars)
"My lineage is a well known one, for both good and bad reasons. But I don't let it define me." "That is an admirable quality Ratheon. But unfortunately, certain Council Members will always see you as a dangerous man." "Then that is their mistake to make. My blood does not define me, but it does give me guidance. I may be descended from a powerful Sith Lord, but I am also, a Jedi Master's Son. Satele Shan's, Son." ~~~~~~~ The Old Republic. An age where when danger and mystery was at every turn. But the most common thing that the Old Republic was known for, was the constant battle between Light, and Dark. Satele Shan, Grandmaster of the Jedi Order, and a devout Jedi. Born as a descendant of Revan and Bastilla Shan, she carved out her path as a true Jedi, one that would strive to serve the Galaxy, like all Jedi should. But what if, she had a Padawan? And what if that Padawan...was her Son? Ratheon Shan... Like his Mother, Ratheon was a devout Jedi, and served the Jedi Order with unwavering loyalty, and especially, the cause that his Mother drilled into him when he was a mere child? After the attack on the Jedi Temple by the fierce Sith Lord, Darth Malgus, and his subsequent defeat on Alderaan, the Sith Empire ramped up their attacks on both the Jedi, and the Republic. As such, Satele chose to both safeguard the order, and save her Son. Freezing him in Carbonite, the Grandmaster of the Jedi Order believed that no matter what happened, her Son would safeguard the Jedi Order they had both sworn to protect, through his unique, and rather..."grey", attitude... But before he was frozen, Ratheon revealed to his Mother...that he had a son, and that he wished to adopt a new last name, that last name that he had chosen for his son. The name in question? Skywalker... ~~~~~~~~~~ AGAIN, NOTHING BELONGS TO ME EXCEPT MY OC CHARACTERS.

Even Stars Go Cold
Back cover In the late twenty-second century Humans have reached the stars, and they are not the first. Ancient technology has literally propelled them into the galaxy, and they find themselves far from alone. Three civilisations, more advanced by millennia, rule vast areas of space by cooperating with each other as the all-powerful Citadel. There are many other, less powerful species; Humanity is forced to join their ranks, low in the pecking order. As they explore and colonise new worlds, the Systems Alliance of Humans encounter the Batarians. Skirmishes ensue, avoiding an all-out war that might draw the attention of the Citadel. On a frontier colony, tragedy strikes time and again. Growing up knowing little else, eager to avenge a mother's death at the hands of Batarians, a youngster's journey begins to "be all they can be". But that may be something other than Human - and the shadow that falls across all of the Systems Alliance may be from within as well as without. This is the story of Sam Tarot, becoming an agent of the Systems Alliance Special Operations - on a mission to defend Humanity against all enemies. --*-- Want to know more?

Star Wars IX- The Rise of Skywalker
"We've passed on all we know. A thousand generations live in you now, but this is your fight." A familiar voice, Luke's, whispers. Luke Skywalker stands net to R2-D2 the sky around him burns shades of orange, yellow and red and behind him a Jedi temple burns. Kylo feels his father's hand upon his face the watched as his father falls into the abyss. "Your journey nears its end." A sinister voice now whispers, and a flash of blue light reveals a fleet of Imperial Star Destroyers filling the vastness of space as blue fire leaps between them. A powerful red laser of an unseen weapon obliterates the surface of a planet. Shrieks, whispers and screams and then the sound of a lightsaber igniting. A fiery red saber but behind that saber is Rey, her hand twitches and the saber becomes a double-pronged staff. A maniacal evil laugh cackles. Kylo woke with a start and sat upright on his bed. Written after the first trailer dropped and finished before the film was released. Contains references to previous films, novelisations and comics. I'm a Reylo shipper but there will be no major smut- one additional slightly adult chapter at the end of the book. #Bendemption #Reyloisendgame #1-starwarsfanfiction 25.12.19 #1- Dyad 4.5.20 (May the 4th be with you) #1-Bendemption 4.4.20 #17- Reylo 25.8.20 #1-episode iv 30.11.20 #2- reylofanficyion 6.1.22 'This is legit my favourite reylo fan fiction OMG it's so in character and like literally perfect for episode 9 I'm dying this is amazing.'

True Passion (Male Sith OC x Ahsoka Tano)
"I see no lies other than the Jedi lies that you have engulfed yourself in. I am no longer blinded by them. This is who I am now, a warrior for the Dark side, for the RIGHT side of this war." "But you seem to remember the feelings you had for me when we were both young Jax. That little boy that I met on my first day in the temple isn't gone,as long as you continue to hold onto those feelings," "He is to me. I'm scared that those feelings are just illusions Soka. I don't want them to be that. I want them to be real, as real as I believe them to be." ~~~~~~~~~~ The Clone wars have begun, and when it comes to violence, no one knows that more than Jax. Once a highly skilled Padawan under Aayla Secura, he now lives his life as the infamous Sith Lord, "Darth Mordain". Trained by the cruel Lord Sidious and cunning Count Dooku, Jax came to realise that the Jedi order's ways were corrupt, and that they have fallen far further than he thought ever possible.

Eclipsed Luminance (a Halo Story)
Update: due to incessant uses of bots on Wattpad, i am beginning the process of migrating my stories to other sites, I'm not sure which ones yet, but the prologue for this story just got transferred into "Royal Road" "AO3" and "WebNovel" I will continue to post here on Wattpad for a while longer due to sentimentality. September 23rd, 2560, AI, Naomi Hello captain, to preface the ongoing conflict with the Banished forces, our resources are draining faster than anticipated, Marines, Spartan IV's, and even our Sangheili allies like the arbiter are being affected with the escalating conflict. ONI however is... they're getting on my nerves, they're being more paranoid than usual and I have an idea why, a field report in 2559 was filed during the Spirit of Fire issue, during their skirmises with the Banished, but that's not what's scaring ONI, at least i don't think.. in that report, a squad of marines under interim commander "Major Vaughan" have reported suspicious activity near firebase Omikron... something about a shifting shape with bioluminescent curtains within. a strange report to say the least, but whatever it is it's got ONI's panties in a bunch... AI Naomi, signing out. PS: i apologize but I must advise caution, I believe this universe is far larger than we all anticipated. --------- Authors Note: this Story is going to be INCREDIBLY slow.
