Note: a more recent blog has been written about this, check out Leektar's Story: Everything you didn't need to know! Below is my initial reaction to my entry being published on the Databank...

Wow, my What's The Story? entry has been published on the Databank!!! Woohoo!

Well, at least partially anyway. I'll be honest - Hecko Tenton was responsible for writing most of Leektar's backstory. Only small bits and pieces of my entry made it into the final version. Still, i'm VERY happy!

Probably my most notable contribution to this entry was the introduction of two all-new [Forest moon of] Endor locations: Yarlubb river, and Red Bush Grove.

Among my favorite aspects of the Star Wars saga are definately the diverse locations throughout the galaxy; being able to add my own to the saga is truly a dream come true.

There's not much of a story of how I came up with these names. Yarlubb was a word I made up out of nowhere - I figured it sounded like a name that an Ewok might have conceived. Red Bush Grove wasn't particularly inventive, it was just a little play on Bright Tree Village. Note that I had called it Red Bush Village in my original entry; it was later edited to become Red Bush Grove.

Overall it seems that my entry was very similar to Hecko's, though Hecko's was the superior of the two Congrats Hecko!

Woohoo! Best day EVER!

[EDIT] December 23: New information has come to light!

Today I first heard from Hecko Tenton, Leektar's co-creator! We have compared notes, and it turns out that I have contributed more to the entry than I initially thought We'll be posting a combined blog entry some time after Christmas, detailing exactly who was responsible for what, that is, if you're interested in that sort of thing... and hooray for Hecko!

[EDIT] January 3: Check out the new blog entry!
