*Spoiler Alert*

Figured I'd put that in, on the off chance anyone just woke up from a coma and hasn't played through Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic yet.

As the title might suggest, this is Bastila Shan after she spends like four and a half minutes with Darth Malak (the resident Sith Lord with a disfigurement in that game) and quickly decides to switch to the Dark Side of the Force and become his new Sith Apprentice.

I took a few liberties with her outfit, since it's a well-known element in ANY story that if someone goes from being a staunch do-gooder to an evil pain-in-the-ass they either adopt giant black armor (in the case of most guys, and a few gals), or suddenly begin to dress with a bit more flair. Seeing as how the Jedi robes in that game, in general, were crap, I redesigned them a bit to show off the cute, snobby and periodically annoying Bastila's curves a bit more.

I also will take this time to comment that the idea of double-bladed lightsabers doesn't sit well with me. I understand the reason for them to exist, and the idea behind them, I just don't typically like them. Maybe it's just me, but it seems like anyone (good or evil) has to use one, it seems perhaps they are trying to compensate for something. I think the best of the best went with a single lightsaber (Yoda, Palpatine, Obi-Wan, Windu, Vader, Dooku) and they whomped ass on a daily basis. Darth Maul DID kill Qui-gon, who from what I've read was a very, very good lightsaber duelist, but only got 1 notch on the ol' Jedi belt before Obi-Wan made Maul half the sith lord he used to be.

Double-bladed lightsaber aside, I wish Maul could be fleshed out a bit more. Lotta potential in back stories, for the horned hellion.

Picture drawn with standard pencil and paper and colored with the Wacom Graphire 4 drawing tablet in Photoshop 7 (hits the shill alarm).
