Redeemed: In recent centuries, the Yuuzhan Vong have somehow regained the ability to feel and/or manipulate the Force.

Yuuzhan Vong believe this is gift of redemption from Zonama Sekot for their dedication towards renouncing their warlike ways.

Distrust of Inorganic Technology: Even after nearly millennia of exposure to inorganic technology following the Yuuzhan Vong's invasion of the galaxy, the Yuuzhan Vong at large distrust much of it. While no longer active seeking to destroy droids, items, and other inorganic items, many of their species still refuse to use it in their daily lives, instead turning to their own organic technology or available alternatives.

An esteemed Yuuzhan Vong Jedi Master from Zonama Sekot, she was recommended for appointment to the High Council by Masters Skywalker and Horn. She embodies the ideals of the Redeemed Path of her species, seeing the Yuuzhan Vong's acceptance back into the Force as not only a gift, but as a responsibility.Β Β She believes the Force is a path for forgiveness and redemption for all beings, the end resulting in serenity.

Much of her ability regarding Force technique is focused in purity and healing, detecting the light and dark sides of the Force as well as injuries, both physical and mental, in allies and opponent's alike. Contrast to her beliefs, Rie Lin is a skilled Yuuzhan Warrior, and has constructed her lightsaber hilt from Yorik coral, while the blade itself matches her golden gaze. Her form is a mix of the Yuuzhan Vong warrior caste arts and the Juyo form.

From her well crafted cape to her impeccable boots this render has quality, fashion, and balance all over. I was particularly impressed with her outfit, the colors are striking and yet balanced with subtlety. Her boots could use a hint more detail, in my opinion solely, such as hints of wrinkles or a more defined sole. The face and facial tattoos are remarkable and add just that right touch in distinguishing the character. The light saber hilt harkens to a wand of sorts, and marks a real definition of character along with the outfit, the overall effect gives a "presence" of kindness, and yet "I do not suffer fools" Well made and I look forward to more unique personas.

As someone that always found the Vong rather less than flattering, I really enjoy the design of Rie Lin. She is very well designed, and as a Dungeon Master for Star Wars RP Board Games and RPer online, I would honestly be delighted to have such a character in any campaign I host.

Many people of the Legends/EU fandom had a hard time accepting the Vong. A lot of those still don't. But after reading the Legacy comics (which are really well done, by the way), they play an integral role in that series, particularly that they were given a chance by the Jedi to redeem themselves for the carnage they wrought across the galaxy, and unfortunately, had their efforts sabotaged by the One Sith. There are not nearly as many as the peak invasion times, but I figured several billion would've settled on more isolated worlds and inevitably, one of them would become a Jedi. Rie Lin is one of the "Redeemed," a Vong that can sense and manipulate the Force in this galaxy, which has become a quasi-religious belief that has spread through the Yuuzhan Vong as their penance being paid at last. While it is not central to the overall arc of the Destiny Era, it is part of the overall setting.Β

I have a hard time accepting the Yuuzhan Vong too because they were to be honest, demonic acting and were given WAY too much momentum thanks to the New Republic being infected with the stupid virus and being inept in their response to being attacked which made the sacrifices Luke and the others made fighting the Empire virtually meaningless.

The New Jedi Order line of novels certainly had their own quirks that would divide fans. No one liked the death of Chewbacca, or Anakin Solo, and what basically became Jacen's turn to the Dark Side. But honestly, it was an event that attempted to keep Star Wars fresh which would've otherwise been just the Jedi versus the Sith/Rebellion versus the Empire on repeat.Β

Leads me to question, did the old Jedi Order (Before luke's Jedi order) know anything about the Yuuzhan Vong? did Yoda, Mace or other jedi at that time know of them?

The book Rogue Planet takes place a few years after Obi-Wan takes Anakin as his apprentice, and they travel to Zonama Sekot and learn about the "Far Outsiders" from a Jedi named Vergere. This was the only Jedi aware of the nature of the planet and the Vong. The rest of the order didn't know about them, and Sidious only learned about them from Thrawn during the Outbound Project failure.

I bet she has an awesome saber! She's cool. I'd love a story with her. I seem to recall in the Legacy era right before the One Sith attacked, the Jedi were working with the Yuuzhan Vong trying to restore and heal ruined worlds. She could be a step in that direction.

Rie Lin is a descendant of the Vong of that era, the product of centuries of penance and eventual redemption.

The Vong are very polarizing among Star Wars fans. But with my setting set in the far-future of the EU/Legends canon, it would be difficult to ignore their influence on the galaxy. And I figured the path of redemption, as highlighted in the Legacy comics, would be a great method to add them in.

I don't mind that she is a hero I mind that she is a Force user.Β  From what I remember they are not force sensitive so can't be Jedi.Β  The bio Light saber I find quite amusing and can't help but think about if they made the blade shorter but put in with a wasp body.Β  So many evil thoughts there...hehehe

Shoguneagle In reply to spacewolflord [2016-04-02 04:58:14 +0000 UTC]

It was until centuries into my Destiny Era setting that the Vong began to reconnect with the Force. A sect arose in their society that believed that they were reaching redemption after a long, arduous penance. There is still a great deal of fear and resentment towards the Vong in the galaxy, but it seemed appropriate to the setting that they would integrate into it, if taking slow steps at a time.

The newfound Force sensitivity wasn't a wave away excuse for Vong Jedi; I put some thought into how it would be possible, and decided it leave it best as a mystery with speculation.

Okay then if it was something you wanted to happen for the story then that works.Β  There are times when lore gets in my head and when I see something that just changes it fundamentally it just doesn't make sense to me.Β  Have fun with your games.

That's a rather audacious character concept!

There was nowhere near enough exploration in official work of how the Vong were to integrate into Galactic society, so this OC is food for thought, in that sense.

By the time of a thousand years after the Battle of Yavin, their immersion was long and arduous after so much death and destruction they had wrought among the galaxy. But at some point, after centuries of penance, they began to regain the ability to sense and use the Force. Rie Lin is the end result
