Week 6 Blog report

I have made a character for Seamus Newman that he will be working on for the next 5-4 months. The character is a Jawa from the star wars universe. I am going to go in a bit of detail of the world that my character lives in and the game world.

The character lives in the Star Wars universe as I stated before. The time era is around the end of the Rise of the empire era and the begging of the Rebellion era. For those that are not that knowing about the Star wars universe or even its eras I will explain that for you as well though you will have to have seen the movies at least to be able to understand what I am talking about.

The time period that my character lives and strives in is in between the movies Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope. The story in the game will be focused mostly on the era around the movies A New Hope, Empire Strikes back and Return of the Jedi ( the rebellion era starts at A New Hope and ends at the end of Return of the Jedi).

I have two ideas about what the roll of the character is and it also makes up two kind of different games.

First idea was that the character is the main character so you play as Wimateeka the Jawa who is a bounty hunter. The story was about the Jawa who has taken about the bounty hunting proffestion insteed of the normal work of scavenging that the Jawas normal work with. The world then would be a world of criminals and people that Wimateeka need to kill or capture. The game will jump from the normal crime infested planets as Tatooine (a desesrt planet with the criminal syndicate of the huts rule, on Tatooine the population is made up of all kinds of aliens) Nar Shaddaa ( a city planet that is controlled by the huts the population is made of all kinds of aliens though after the Galactic empire came in power aliens have become followed by the empire because they are not humans) and Coruscant ( a city planet and the capital of the Galactic empire, Is controlled by the Galactic Empire though there are still a lot of crime syndicates still operating in the city/planet. The population is made of all kinds of aliens though after the Galactic empire came in power aliens have become followed by the empire because they are not humans).

The second Idea was that the Character (Wimateeka) is a companion for the main character that the player will play. Still being around the same worlds as stated before but the game would not be surrounding Tatooine’s dynes and non-populated areas as much as it would if Wimateeka would have been the main character.

That would be the games more or less or at least what I had thought about.

Because both games have a lot to do with crime that that is the society that surrounds the player, one aspect though that is added if the game would have been the first idea aswell as if the story would surround Wimateeka a lot is the culture of the Jawas. I will take what http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki has said about thier culture:

Jawas were a communal, compulsive scavenger species who spent most of their life devoted to scavenging the deserts of Tatooine in search of any scrap metal, droid or mechanical part left behind from millennia of star travel and technological advancement, where the dry climate of Tatooine preserved almost all debris. Most non-Jawas regarded the Jawas as scavengers and thieves, a description that most Jawas actually found pleasing.

The Jawa’s unofficial motto was not to look for uses in a salvaged item, but rather to imagine someone else who might find a use for it.[10] And this was evidenced in their endless search for wares with which to trade with almost any being Jawas encountered. They had a kind of instinctive feel for machinery and electronics, notorious for knowing how to get a piece of equipment functioning just well enough to sell.

The thing with Wimateeka is that he has abandoned most of his culture when he set out to become a bounty hunter after his tribe was killed.

This is the concept picture that i found and tweaked for this assignment I do not own this picture at all just so people know! =)

So this is the concept of the world abit of character and the story/game that I have comed up with.
