Star Wars Fan Art

The TOR Community continues to amaze us with their talent, and RiaStarchild (http://www.swtor.com/community/member.php?u=161573) is no exception. Check out these gorgeous Star Wars and anime-inspired art from Ria’s Star Wars Pics (http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=37950) thread. Ria says she started drawing a long time ago, and her newer drawings are usually her own creations or requests from friends and or forum users. You can also see more of Ria’s artwork on her deviantArt (http://riastarchild.deviantart.com/) page and The World of MeRioS (http://www.merios.net/) website.

Star Wars Fan Fiction

Throughout the years, fans have been inspired by Star Wars to create intriguing fiction and roleplaying opportunities. ArikVandar (http://www.swtor.com/community/member.php?u=89486) initiated a roleplaying story, Insurrection (http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?p=747662#post747662), which focuses on the planet of Onderon. The Onderon citizens are uprising against the recent takeover of the Sith Empire. Rumors say that the Jedi may be behind the rebellion and the Empire is sending out a task force to squelch the citizens.

You can enjoy reading Insurrection (http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?p=747662#post747662) and other Star Wars fan fiction in the Roleplay and Play-by-Play (http://www.swtor.com/community/forumdisplay.php?f=31) forum.
