the star wars meme
a meme for may fourth

Do you have a Star Wars muse ready for action? Or maybe you have a character that you want to toss into the world of Star Wars, AU style? Well, what are you waiting for? Today's the day!

how to play

1. For canon characters, toss up a top-level! For the people AUing in, pick a side — dark or light.

2. Let's get threading! We can get into the specifics of eras and alliances if that's your thing, but this meme is for casual fans and diehards alike, so don't feel as if you need to get caught up in the specifics.

3. If you're unsure of where to go with things, here are some ideas to get you started:

roles

Military - You’re in it for the good fight! (Or someone sold you on some recruitment videos.)
- Underling - Foot soldier. You’re just there to be cannon fodder, or to operate one of six thousand different menial systems on a huge ship. Sorry, man.
- Leader - A General? An Admiral? A Captain, a Colonel? Whatever your rank, you’re in charge of something, from a ship to a squadron to a fleet.
- Pilot - X-Wing, A-Wing, TIE, or other, you’re in a single-person fighter and you’re a hotshot. Maybe you’re even in the rebels’ Rogue Squadron, or Wraith Squadron, under the personal command of Wedge Antilles. Or maybe you’re in the 181st, with the elite, and fighting for the Empire.
- Operative - A covert agent, the sort who gets into enemy facilities and then takes them down. - Support Personnel - Mechanic, supply officer, gung-ho civilian -- you’re there to support the soldiers.
- Spy - You’ve been passing information out of turn -- your loyalties are secretly to the other side. It’s a hard life, but someone’s gotta do it.
Criminal - It can't all be space wizards and hidden forces. Someone has to take out the trash!
- Overload - Big-time head of a smuggling operation - You rival Talon Karrde, Jabba the Hutt and other big-time galaxy smugglers. You’re the head of an entire criminal division.
- Rogue - Own a little bitty ship of your own - Just got this YT-1300 and my sidekick, and we run anything we can. Passengers, cargo, whatever! - Just a little piece in a criminal organization
- Grunt - Someday, you might climb up in the ranks and have your very own smuggling operation.
Force-sensitive - You’ve got a high midi-chlorian count! Now what?
- Jedi - are you a new trainee in the temple? An apprentice out on assignment? A newly minted Knight? A Jedi Master, even?
- Sith - You’ve turned to the dark side. You pursue your own ends -- greed, rage, revenge.
- Clueless - What’s ‘Force’?
- Unaligned - I do what I want.
Civilian - Don't feel bad; the world needs normies, too!
- Low-level - you’ve got some menial job. Waiter or waitress, exotic dancer, farmer. Super-boring, but you dream of a better life. Or maybe you’re happy with what you have.
- High-level - you’re the civilian governor of a planet, or the leader of an interplanetary organization. You may not have the uniform, but you have the prestige. Or maybe you’re a celebrity -- a holodrama star or a sports star.
Slave - Yikes, rough luck.
- You’ve been sold and bought by a criminal organization, probably somewhere on the Outer Rim where the Republic’s law enforcement can’t reach.
- Alternately, you're enslaved by the Empire/the Sith/whoever's into that these days.
