Chezmono's Thoughts On My Custom Star Wars Legos [Star Wars: Factions - Intro: Part I]

Today I'm not here to give my thoughts on another Star Wars topic. Instead, I want to introduce you all to my own custom Star Wars LEGOs. I've been doing my own little Star Wars series with my legos for a while now, and I call it Star Wars: Factions. As of today, I have completed the "mid-season finale" for "season 9", and a lot has happened throughout my "series". Each season is twenty "episodes" and it's split in half, ten and ten, like how The Walking Dead is sixteen episodes per season, but split eight and eight. I do this because, if my fake LEGO Star Wars series were real, I'd want to split it to half two big finales per season, just like The Walking Dead, because it's my favorite TV show. Let me attempt to remember everything that's happened and explain it as best I can. Though, this week I'm only going to introduce you to the starting characters. [Take Note: This "series" takes place around 8000 ABY.]

In the first episode, we are introduced to some of our favorites from my previous Star Wars LEGOs series game thing, Star Wars: Avant-Garde, which was more of a trilogy series. There were a total of 21 "movies", which translates to 7 trilogies, and I'm really getting sick of these quote-unquotes, you guys get the idea. (Also, in my mind, it also went on for 1 or 3 more trilogies for an even total of 24 or 30 movies.)

One of the favorites I'm talking about is Carid Janane, the Chosen One, who has long brown hair, slightly-bushy brown eyebrows, a short brown beard, brown eyes, pretty big muscles, a light black sleeveless robe secured at his waste and stopping halfway down his upper legs, black sweatpants, and black boots concealed from the ankles up by his pants. Carid wields A MIGHTY SWORD! In all seriousness, though, he wields a gray vibroblade. An interesting trait about Carid is that he, unlike most of the characters throughout the series, is that he is left-handed, rather than right-handed or ambidexterous. And just to avoid any confusion, he is caucasian or "white" and is in his mid thirties.

Another main character from Avant-Garde that returns in Factions is young man Alenn Garu, who used to be a child student of the Jedi Order. In this new era, the terms "Jedi" and "Sith" became less and less common as it was harder to figure out who the good and evil truly were. Ultimately, at some point during this series, the terms are not used for many years and do not have meaning up to where I am with the series. In the time Alenn Garu spent away from his friends, he trained himself and ended up becoming the fastest Jedi alive at the time. Alenn has muscles a bit smaller than Carid's and has short orange hair that is almost always covered by his general hat as his mouth and nose are covered by his black cloth facemask. He also wears a longsleeve gray shirt that resembles lightweight armor on his body, but the black sleeves are skintight. His black breastplate is edged in mahogany-like wood with bronze-colored bolts about two inches apart along the edging. The edging also runs up the center of his chest, connecting to his collar edging, with bronze-tinted wing symbols connecting to the center edging. He has a brown leathery belt with a copper-tinted viking head symbol as the buckle. Like Carid, He wears plain black sweatpants, with the difference being that he tucks them into his black boots. Alenn's weapon is a gray-handled blue lightsword, a variation of the lightsaber that's name is self-explanatory.

To Be Continued In Part II...

Sorry this "Chezmono's Thoughts" was late, not that anyone cares since (at the time of this) no one actually reads this. Anyway, sorry that I'm cutting it off short and that it wasn't posted until about 15 minutes into Monday. I'll continue the character descriptions in Part 2, which I might do later today or next week. Have fun!
