3rd Star Wars daemon AU post!
Here by popular demand: The Jedi Council and their daemons!
Depa Billaba - Hooked Billed Kite (Taryz)
Mace Windu - Bald Eagle (Maisha)
Yoda - Ostrich (Kieachkta)
Shaak Ti - Hyacinth Macaw (Thevren)
(Commander Colt - Anatolian Shepherd (Pistol))
Plo Koon - Osprey (Averyl)
Ki-Adi Mundi - Great Blue Heron (Czirda)
Kit Fisto - Blue Footed Booby (Krios)
Now onto my random AU lore and thoughts:
JEDI LORE TIME: So, as Iāve said in my last daemon AU post, the Jedi generally have bird daemons. This is by nurture, not nature. The way the Jedi teach young force-users to interact with the Force usually ends up directing their daemons to settle into a bird species of some kind. Which conveniently is around the time a Jedi Initiate is either chosen to be a Jedi Knight or be sent to the Jedi Corps. While it is not a rule that a Jedi Knight has to have a bird daemon, there are stigmas in the Jedi culture that lead to Jedi Knights and Masters not wanting to pick Padawans with not-bird daemons. This was one of the reasons the Council was hesitant to take in Anakin originally. He was already past the age of being nurtured to have his daemon settle as a bird, as he was raised outside the Temple.
(If youāre wondering why Obi-Wan doesnāt have a bird daemon, look at my last post. But to summarize his daemon settled while on Melida/Daan. So not ideal circumstances) (Also Qui-Gon Jinn cares not for cultural taboos, so he did not care much that Obi-Wanās daemon ended up not being a bird lol)
The exceptions to this bird-daemon rule is generally Jedi in the Corps and Jedi Shadows (I will be making a Quinlan Vos post at some point that goes into that more).
DEPA BILLABA and her daemon, Taryz, who is a Hooked Billed Kite.
Okay for the life of me I cannot remember the reason I picked Depaās daemon š , but it was probably just: āI like how Hooked Billed Kites lookā. So a good reason obv.
I inserted some silly interactions between Obi-Wan and Depa, and Kee-Ayt and Taryz. I headcanon that since they are the two youngest council members, they will go out of their way to act like children in front of the older council members. Just to make the others role their eyes and say ākids šā. Despite the fact that both of them are like in their mid 30s-40s. But besides them acting like two siblings alone in the back seat of a car, they are close with each other. Taryz is the daemon most comfortable being casually around Kee-Ayt, out of the other daemons in the Council. (I imagine that since most Jedi daemons are birds, sometimes other Jedi donāt know how to interact with Kee-Ayt)
MACE WINDU and his daemon, Maisha, who is a Bald Eagle.Ā
In the Temple there runs a rumor amongst the Padawans about which came first: Mace being bald? Or Maceās daemon settling as a Bald Eagle? A real āchicken or the eggā question lol.
But more seriously, I really did just end up picking a Bald Eagle daemon because I wanted to make bald jokes hahaha. That and Bald Eagles just naturally look pissed all the time, which matches well with Maceās āresting bitch faceā.
YODA and his daemon, Kieachkta, who is an Ostrich.
My whole concept for Yoda was just: āif Yoda is a small species, then he should get a big ass daemon to balance it outā. And yes, Yoda rides around on Kieachkta because of course he does. And when he canāt hit your ankles with his stick, heāll get Kieachkta to peck the back of your head (which hurts ow).
(If youāre wondering, all of Yodaās species have bigger daemons. Like Yaddle has an Emu daemon).
SHAAK TI and her daemon, Thevren, who is a Hyacinth Macaw.
My only thoughts for Shaakās daemon was I wanted it to be big and colorful. 1. Because sheās just this tall figure with long montrals. She just needed a big bird species to go with her impressive figure. 2. She just has always had a fun color scheme, so I thought a colorful bird of some kind would be fun. SO A HYACINTH MACAW. Theyāre huge and a beautiful blue color (that matches her montral stripes). I also just wanted her to have a fun, friendly looking daemon. Since sheās on Kamino most of The Clone Wars, and interacting with Tubies and Cadets. I think her having a big, loving, approachable looking daemon was just right. (Which is why in this AU, she was chosen to be the one working with the younger clones). Hence why I have so many doodles of her daemon with young clonesā daemons.Ā
Plus I added an extra doodle of Commander Coltsā daemon, Pistol, who is a breed of Livestock Guardian Dog. Since Colt is also on Kamino, he often is āherdingā, āprotectingā and ātrainingā the young clones. So a herding/guardianĀ Ā dog daemon felt right for him. (Pistol is the bad cop to Thevrenās good cop lol)
PLO KOON and his daemon, Averyl, who is an Osprey.
Tbh I didnāt have any idea what bird I wanted Plo to have. So I ended up googling ābird species that are good parentsā lol. And Osprey were on that list! Idk how true that is, but IN STARWARS IT IS NOW TRUE.
Ā Plo is just The Jedi Dad Of All Time (*cough cough* Ahsoka *cough cough* Wolffe *cough cough* Wolf Pack), so he got a Parent Of All Time bird lol.Ā
And yes Averyl spends all her free time trying to preen EVERY member of The Wolf Pack. Is that physically possible? I donāt know, but donāt even try to tell Averyl she canāt do it. All her furry dog children WILL feel her affection.
KIT FISTO and his daemon, Krios, who is a Blue Footed Booby.
All I can say is I knew I wanted Kit to have a sea bird, because heās The Swimming Jedi^TM. And I love Blue Footed Boobies.Ā
Also Kit is a silly guy who deserves a silly bird, with silly blue feet and a silly name.
KI-ADI MUNDI and his daemon, Czirda, who is a Great Blue Heron.
Ki-Adi is a long, lanky looking dude so he gets a long, lanky bird.Ā
I have spoken.
(Also I see a lot of Blue Herons around where I live, so theyāre a favorite of mine).
Alright hereās the last batch of clone ocs Iām introducing (for now)
As always, @whiskygoldwings @grackle-draws @thivell @the-starry-seas @hastalavistabyebye <3
Introducing the Runaways! They featured in this snippet! Shiver snatched up all these little kihāvode just a few days before he was supposed to be deployed and fled from Kamino
Shiver
He/Him
Trained as a medic
Dyed and grew out his hair so heād be less likely to be recognized as a clone (though growing it out was also partially because heās too tired to cut it)
So stressed all of the time, but doesnāt let that affect how he treats his kihāvode
Always gentle with his vodāike, but can and will go feral if anyone so much as thinks about touching them
Cabu & Mirda
Both He/Him
Batchmates
Early teens
Mirda is a natural blond; Cabu bleached his to match after they ran away
Mirda is a very anxious sweetheart and his scores had begun to slip, which only made the anxiety worse
Cabu is extremely protective of Mirda and will fight anyone (vod, trainer, or longneck alike) that picks on him
Circuit
He/Him
About 8-10, physically
Special interest is software engineering
Has some sort of ādefectā that makes him weaker than most of his vode, and was often overwhelmed by training sims
Found this coat on the second planet they stopped at and fell in love with it. He wears it all the time, now. Itās just the right weight and has a hood he can pull up when heās overstimulated
Tubie (Moth)
A baby
Has vitiligo
The markings by his eyes look like wings
Doesnāt have a name yet, but will later be named Moth. For now, heās called various names such as Tubāika, Angel, Ikaad, Sweetheart, Little One, Vodāika, and a variety of other things
Swift got his fingers ripped off while repairing some sub-par machinery (thanks republic salvage yard, bastards) but he's still ballin Ranger has a major addiction to Stims, and likes to think he's managing it well. And, uh, I guess he is... unless he has too much downtime on his hands and cant justify using to himself or his squad. They are... very close :)
suck it up fives lol echo will likely let ya eat after
echo have fun!!
Echo really needs to talk RIGHT NOW
Alpha-17, holding Mazeās face in his hands: My perfect precious baby brother. My beautiful younger sibling. My delightful gem of a kinsman. Myā
Maze: Let go of me and never call me those things again, for the love of god.
Alpha: Nnnnnnooo.
Zey: I hate to interrupt, but I believe Ordoās skull has been fractured.
Alpha: Walk it off.
Zey: You put him through five walls and a decorative mosaic (which I am not sure why we even fucking had).
Alpha: He deserved it.
Maze: He hit me once, and not even as hard as you did.
Zey: He could very well die.
Alpha: Good. Whoās my precious, perfect, beautiful, intelligent, adorable little baby brother? Whoās better than those nasty Nulls?
Maze: Youāre doing this to mock me, stop it. Also, I donāt like Ordo at all, but I donāt want him dead.
Zey: Fuck it, Iām taking him to the medbay. Anyone want to help me lug him orā¦
Maze: I DO NOT NEED TO BE WRAPPED IN COTTON AND LOCKED IN A SAFE
Alpha: Yes you do. Youāre helpless.
Maze: I AM A COMPETENT ADULT WHO WENT THROUGH THE SAME FUCKING TRAINING AS YOU
Alpha: Sure, but youāre still helpless. Like a baby shaak.
Maze: I AM NOT EVEN IN THE EIGHTIES YOU ASSHOLE
Maze: FORDO IS YOUNGER THAN ME
Zey: Ordo, youāre extremely lucky to be unconscious.
Maze: I AM NOT A CADET AND I DO NOT NEED TO HAVE MY HAND HELD
Maze: WHY IS EVERYONE CONVINCED I CANāT TAKE CARE OF MYSELF
Maze: I AM A GODDAMN ARC TROOPER LIKE HALF THE PEOPLE IN THIS ROOM
Alpha: Yes, but Ordo punched you.
Maze: This is going to be your talking point for the next year, isnāt it.
(Or, what would happen if Maze commed his brothers during Triple Zero.)
First post here and it might as well be of Radzig and Henry but as that one pic from the office
