Talk:Shakvail: Beginnings/Chapter 3: Padawan

This will serve as the talk page for Chapter 3, where any readers/editors are encouraged to leave comments regarding the chapter. Some initial author's notes regarding the chapter follow.

1. Diado is a canon planet, if an obscure one. It was a snow-covered world that appeared briefly in the Clone Wars Adventures comics. Most of the details are my own.

2. Ice Cats are canonical creatures, known to be native to Hoth and Ilum. I have chosen to import them to Diado. Their appearance is based on their images in SWTOR.

3. Nightsisters, while native to Dathomir, have a funny tendency to get around, so I feel secure in placing one in an obscure location in the Mid Rim. The nature of the facility she has commandeered is left to mystery (lightsaber-deadening energy fields will be explained in the future).

4. Regarding Z'meer's earrings: canon images of the Jedi Master show her wearing spherical earrings of at least golf ball size. Since this seems very unusual for a Jedi I have chosen to impart them with a more...utilitarian...purpose.

5. In a mechanistic sense Shakvail's Breaker Trance allows her to utilize the Force Power known as Shatterpoint, which is how she smashes the coffin, though it is somewhat more flexible and intuitive than the standard approach.
