Revision as of 20:36, 10 April 2021
The Other Outcast is either a short story or a novella hurriedly written by MPK of the Star Wars Fanon Wiki. Taking place in the aftermath of Star Wars: Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast, it tells the tale of Rune Chamra, one of the Reborn followers of the Dark Jedi Desann. Upon learning of Desann's death at Yavin 4, Rune begins to doubt his own beliefs and loyalty to the Empire. Soon after, a New Republic attack on Cairn Base challenges him to pursue a new destiny for himself. The first draft of the story was released on July 3, 2020. A revision of the text was completed on July 12.
Ideally, one will have a basic familiarity with the events of Jedi Outcast before reading.

Behind the scenes
Work on The Other Outcast was begun in response to the unveiling of the Summer 2020 Short Story Contest, and to the author's stalled work on the much-longer sequel to Torchbearer. Its premise was heavily inspired by the Jedi Academy single-player mod Eve of Redemption, which also has a Reborn as the protagonist.
Various details and events are intended as nods to the gameplay of Jedi Outcast and Jedi Academy, including the Reborn's propensity for taunting and jeering at their opponents, as well as the frequency of characters being killed or incapacitated by being thrown off of ledges.
The author's love of Imperial-centric stories stems primarily from a childhood spent playing the 1994 flight-sim Star Wars: TIE Fighter.
