Depa Billaba Respect Thread.

Good thread, thoroughly enjoyed it. But because I know no one is willing to take the roll of critic, I feel it necessary that I note a couple things that could be improved:

Thanks

1.) There were a lot of insignificant accolades. It's good to be thorough, but many of them detract from the thread rather than adding to it.

Hey, if i'm going to go through a book a bunch of times, Imma be thorough. Though, I'm assuming this about her "Hope/beacon" accolade, to which i have to say. They are force users themselves and the fact that they respect her and even fear her, says a lot.

2.) In the "Combat Abilities" section, you continue to mention feats of speed/strength that attribute more to the previous "Force Augmentation" section. I presume this is because it can be attributed to both, which is why I suggest not being afraid to post the same quote/scan in more than one section when addressing different angles on it.

Yeah, thanks, I just don't wanna spam the same thing more than once you know?

3.) Lastly, more regarding her fight with Mace than the thread overall, I know it's a Depa respect thread, but let's not try to gimp out the fact that she was amped.

It's sad how you think that was my intention, I merely stated that she was also incredibly exhausted from fighting for months, while Mace had only been there a week. 🙁

BTW, for speed, doesn't she also seem to disappear behind a haze of green fire at one point? Also, I don't believe there's any source confirming Mace as a master of all 7 forms, even if he probably is. [/B]

That haze of fire was during the fight between Her and Mace iirc and the source for Mace being a master of Vaapad, I saw that on Wookiee and then i looked at Marco's respect thread and didn't see it there, I'll change it soon.

But, thanks for the critique and for reading through the respect thread. I appreciate it. 🙂

But you didn't make any note of the fact whatsoever, when it's an important detail. It would be misleading to people who know less about Depa, and that's the target audience for the thread.

Yep.

She also fought him and was amped by darkside energy in that bunker

Plus Mace was severely injured and exhausted.

Like i said, I had been pulling some long nights, reading through shatterpoint, going, through the old Databanks, searching for more of Depa's appearances in the EU(which reminds me i need to credit someone for a specific quote), not to mention i went back and forth from one page to the other trying to search for stuff I might have missed. I just spent a lot of time double-checking Shatterpoint for stuff I might have missed(more than double-checking), making sure the thread itself looked good/presentable and searching for old and new canon accolades. I'm sorry if i failed to mention that, I was quite literally running on fumes when i finished that thread. It was not my intention to withhold that info or anything, I was just tired. Thanks again for the critique and for the heads up. I'll fix it when I can.

I feel I'm the only one who doesn't credit people in my threads, thinking about it. :mmm:

Wasn't Mace also disinterested when he was fighting Depa?

Yeah he was. On top or being injured, heavily exhausted, and other factors

Disinterested is not how I'd describe it.

Course it isn't.

What do you mean by that?

#shotsfired

bangbang

Unless I am missing something, disinterested means he has no interest in the fight. The text makes it rather abundantly clear that Mace is fighting for his life there, and there's a lot of emotional turmoil in that fight, so he sure as hell isn't disinterested.

ILS, when I get back on DMBE tomorrow I'll invite you.

War has been declared.
