Who Would You Be?
Hey all... I was surfing Tim Veekhoven's non-TK-421 site, and came across a link called "Unknown Characters" that was basically a repository for images of beings from the films who had yet to be named by LFL or one of its licensees. There are only a few out there, but it got me thinking...

If I could have played a role in a Star Wars film, what would it be? Yes, yes, I know that I already have a Star Wars character named for me... but he's not who I would have wanted to play in a real film. See, I always envisioned myself playing... well, um, er... Aayla Secura. The male version.

(Hear me out on this one...!)

Like many of you out there, I wrote my own versions of the scripts for each film (after Episode V, of course, when it was obvious that more films were going to be made). My friend Randy and I had a ROJ variant in which Luke uses the carbonite-frozen Han Solo slab to maim Boba Fett during his escape from Jabba's palace on Tatooine. For Episode III, I envisioned a scene in the Jedi Library in which Anakin and Obi-Wan walk past a male Twi'lek Jedi Master who is perusing a thick tome. This Master would be cool-looking, with bluish-purple skin and a set of weird eyegoggles to help his aging eyes read the words. He'd have been dressed in heavy robes, but would have had his hood down while in the library. Of course, that Twi'lek Jedi Master would have been me under the makeup.

So, who would you be?
