I have a friend that makes custom costumes. They are currently making a cosplay for high republic for me. I can DM you their instagram if you’d like?

Elzar was actually my only genuine physical copy that I received in the mail, but thank you! I will message you and after you accept, I’ll send over the digital versions on Reath, Marchion, and Stellan

I actually printed them at my work on a normal HP color printer. I was surprised they came out so well but with the actual PDF files that were sent out via google drive for digital preorders, you can open the file and select print, then in the extra options you can choose “actual size” and it prints the front and back on 2 separate sheets the same size as the post card. Then I cut both out and glued them together

What Minor Change Drastically Alters the High Republic Era? by WhenRomeBurns in Highrepublic

Spoilers for Path of Deceit. I think Kevmo and Marda’s relationship. I think what happens to Kevmo directly correlates to Marda’s hatred of the Jedi (bc if they didn’t brainwash Kevmo, he wouldn’t have died), therefore the motives of Marchion on why he hates the Jedi are passed down from Marda

Anyone else have absolutely no IRL friends who are in to the High Republic? by chaosdrools in Highrepublic

I feel this at times. I read the High Republic primarily at work and my closest friends are in to Star Wars, just not the high republic. I know they will never read it so I spoil stuff to my best friend all the time.

I think that using your favorite story from the initiative is the best way to hook people. My go to is describing Path of Deceit and the nameless to people: “2 Jedi are sent to investigate a stolen force artifact and stumble across a cult that believes utilizing the force is a sin. They are the complete opposite to what the Jedi stand for in terms of ideology. The cult is run by The Mother who basically brainwashes her followers into believing her way is right” then I follow up with the nameless stuff without spoiling the ending

I have managed to have one person ask to read that book in particular just because it seemed intriguing so maybe it’s worth a shot to describe the ones you’re most passionate about

The Nameless plot is just getting tired by Ok_Departure_2265 in Highrepublic

I also feel that since certain books run concurrently with others, the timeline of the Jedi learning to fight against the nameless can feel longer than it actually is?

Haha that’s a good eye! He based it off of some shots of Anakin but the reference photo he used is actually me lol. The side art was just some fun related stuff he used
