They are well-attended and widely broadcasted!

She continues to be pretty upfront about wanting reds to be treated well and allowed to go to the red planet once they have one. She shows off her Force powers and spars with locally-famous greys and tells stories about her hometown and the Sith empire and aliens she's known. She explains how hyperdrives work, in lay terms. DZ attends everything - they're never out of sight of each other - and is shy and awkward at first, but warms up eventually, and even stops hesitating when asked for her opinions on things.

She devotes an hour or so every evening to helping with sensor development; it's much more straightforward than hyperdrives, and doesn't really need her personal attention, but she still wants to keep an eye on it.

She's still on tour when they send out the first scout ship, but she'll be home again in time to join the group greeting the pilots when they return.

She gets booed sometimes when she talks about being nice to reds. People like the wizard stuff, can Amentans be wizards?

Scouts are so excited about hunting for planets.

Permalink

The booing doesn't slow her down any. She hasn't noticed any Amentan force-sensitives yet, but they're very rare in most species that have them; it's possible that there are a few out there. Maybe when she's done with spaceships and robots she'll see if she can find any.

Will she start a wizard school?

Permalink

Depends on how many she finds! Sith usually do apprenticeships, and she'll be a little surprised if there's too many force-sensitive kids here for that - it's possible to start learning as an adult, but it's much harder to pick up, Sith usually start at three or so and Jedi start much younger.

Permalink

Can people tell on their own if they are potential wizards?

Permalink

Not really - back home there's a test, but she doesn't have the first idea how to make one, biology isn't her thing. If she does find any Force-sensitives the greens may be able to develop one, though.

Permalink

Makes sense!

Permalink

Yup!

Permalink

How did wizards discover themselves if you can't tell by yourself that you are a potential wizard?

Permalink

Well, the actual history there has been lost to time, but every once in a while you get a Force-sensitive who has such a strong natural talent for something that they can do it without any training at all, and from there it's not very hard to figure out other things that you can do.

Permalink

Gosh. Just how rare are potential wizards, anyway?

Permalink

Among humans it's one in about ten million, and that's fairly high.

Permalink

What's the low end?

Permalink

There are some species that have only had one or two known Force-senstives in their entire recorded history, and more without any.

Permalink

But what's the population of those species?

Permalink

She didn't get to bring any reference material with her when she came, she points out lightly. But her history lessons didn't cover any of the really obscure species.

Permalink

Hmmmmm. Maybe they can meet people with libraries after they have more of a foothold in space. (Space! Space space.)

Permalink

Yup!

Permalink

Does she want to go home now that she can or will she stay on Amenta?

Permalink

Amenta's pretty nice! She might go out to one of the colonies, though, she likes having a little more space.

Permalink

They can empathize with that! Does she want to find a human and have kids?

Permalink

Eh, it's not really a priority. Humans don't spring, did they know?

Permalink

But they must sometimes have kids. Amentans want kids even when it is not spring.
