Once the portals to Oblivion had been shut, the only thing that was currently drawing Varrus's ire were two stupid Orcs bashing into one another.
“You abandoned me!” The large red Orc, Garrosh roared.
“To secure our future!” Grom roared back.
“All lies, you are no Hero, no true Orc!” Garrosh kept up his tempo, his axe slammed down with enough force to crack the earth asunder.
Both warriors ...

Varrus was basking in the midday sun, enjoying the cool breeze, the love of his wife, and the sight of two Orcs trying to murder one another. In the background his mother was busy closing the tears into Oblivion caused by Murozond, and the massive pool of mana that was the Sunwell shimmered peacefully nearby.
He felt like some ancient Roman emperor watching a gladiatorial fight between ancient Heroes. The only thing missing was a snack, like some grapes, or something sa...

Sitting on a patch of grass next to the Sunwell, and holding Syra's hand, Varrus was relieved to have done away with the Bronze Dragonflight, and gotten himself healed.
Whilst he had a few perks that would have restored him, having his wounds placed in a time loop was one of the most dastardly things he had experienced since transmigrating to the World of Warcraft.
Thankfully, this victory came with a big bonus. Not only did he acquire the souls o...

Whilst Syra was battling with the villains of the past, Varrus had been busy trying everything and everything he could to cure himself, and rejoin the fight.
The most obvious solution, and first thing that came to mind was the Dispel Magic spell.
After struggling through the pain and slowed time dilation, Varrus cast the Alteration spell, only to find it had almost no effect.
‘Sonuva bitch!’ Varrus internally cursed as a...

After Corvus's speech, everyone had slightly relaxed. While Kazdan Paradus was a bonafide Jedi Master, his recent paranoia, poor reputation as a battlefield commander, and reclusive nature saw that Corvus remain as the unspoken leader of the group.
Corvus was about to move forward with his escape plan, when the Twi'lek Padawan started to walk uncomfortably close towards him.
“Corvus, you're alive! What happened back there? And does anyone ...

Syra thrummed with a newfound power as the rebirth of the Sunwell supplied her with a constant source of mana.
The influx of alternative energies clashed with her carefully balanced Holy Void state, as there was no Void mana coming from the Well.
However, this was to Syra's advantage, because she could take that overwhelming mana, and combine it with her dark emotions to create a new balance. To create a new and improved Holy Void state!

Pain like no other assaulted Varrus as the tip of the Dragon's claw pierced his chest, and tossed him to the ground.
His vision turned black, and his guts felt like they were on fire. At the same time, everything else felt cold. The blood in his veins were ice, the ground appeared shaky, as if his head was on a swivel cam hung from a rope.
Varrus's consciousness threatened to leave him as he saw his health bar begin to rapidly drain from the corne...

For the last half hour, Varrus had been busy dancing around dodging stray shots from Nozdormu as he placed the final crystals where the Skyrim UI indicated they should go.
While he was doing this, he ended up having to fend off the notorious quest givers, Chromie and Dante.
As powerful as they were, Varrus noticed that their battle sense was weak, and easily exploited their lack of experience. To him, fighting the pair of Heroic Dragons was as if ...

“Fus Ro Dah!” The shout trembled the sky, and blew the 6 Heroic true Dragons backward.
Nozdormu had briefly phased himself out of reality to avoid the attack.
Looking down at the creature he had sworn to destroy and her spawn, Nozdormu felt for the first time in his long life, the inklings of fear.
When he was young, he had been instructed by the leader of the Titans, Aman'Thul to cater events across Azeroth such that th...

Floating in the sky above the island of Quel'Danas, the seven leaders (and only true Dragons) of the Bronze Dragonflight had gathered. All around them, whelps, drakes, and lesser Dragons swarmed the skies in their hundreds.
Off to the side, Chromie and Dante were observing the battle, and making small talk while they waited for their father and master's command.

Syra breathed heavily as she ducked beneath a heavy side swipe, her sword parried it to the side just in time. A lock of blonde hair flicked off into the wind as the sharp slice of Gorehowl missed her by a fingers width.
At the same time, Hellscream reached towards her with his offhand, and moved to grasp her neck.
Leaning forward into her duck, she suddenly performed a Leap of Faith, and rammed her Light empowered skull into the jaw of the Orc, s...

Whilst the Elven forces were under siege, Varrus was a little more than a quarter of the way done, slotting the Mana Stones into their proper positions.
He was about to place the 189th crystal where the system ui indicated it should go, when he felt the ground shake, and a scorching bright orange light on the horizon.
Vast waves of ambient mana spilled from the south, and sonic booms constantly interrupted the serene atmosphere of this holy site.&...

Whilst the Horde forces summoned from the future were attacking from the north, the Alliance was launching a desperate assault from the south.
It was desperate, because the Alliance forces were limited to less than 3,000 soldiers. Time travel was a dangerous concept, and moving one, let alone a thousand individuals invited backlash from the forces of the universe.
The strike team put together by Chromie was designed to punch a hole in the Elven de...

Bands were playing music, and people were partying with a festive mood.

A month had passed, and Varrus was sitting in his office in Silvermoon going over the successes and concerns of the Gilnean campaign.
Taking a sip of some tea, Varrus massaged his eyes, and began to write down what he had accomplished so he had a reference for later.
Starting with the successes:
By backing Tess as the new monarch, Varrus had secured a new vassal state to the Covenant, and a new front of attack for their slowly mou...

Even with the buffs, Tess was on a similar level as Rho'dan, whilst the speed, precision, and ferocity Greymane moved with was closer to Syra.
In effect, Tess was slowly losing ground, and Varrus saw that it would only be a matter of time before she lost.
Having already revealed his Elven nature to her, Varrus was confident that between him and his w...

While facing so many Elites accompanied by a named Hero could be challenging, Varrus had a few things going for him.
For one, his position was rigged with countless Fire Runes that he had set up earlier, there were tons of stone walls, and the Mana Stones he had set up to stop the ritual were full, and brimming with energy.

So while I plunk away at chapter 2 (5k written so far) I thought up some prestige classes for when the MC eventually hits level 15. I'm going to pick what I'm going to pick, but I'm curious what you guys think. Here are the options:
Sith Assassin: You easily grasp the weak points of any person, building, or starship. Wielding explosives and poisons comes naturally to you. You are difficult to track through the Force. Grants the ability to become invisible at any time.

After slapping down another Fire Rune for the umpteenth time in preparation for this big boss fight, Varrus halted, and suddenly slapped his forehead.
‘I'm a dumbass.’ Varrus thought to himself.
What was it that he saw with his Mana Sight flowing into this statue from all around him?
Mana.
What tool did he have that could easily deal with such a thing?

AN: Much of this contains Legends lore, and many feats of Jedi, droids, etc are based upon the 2003 Clone Wars cartoon, meaning that characters move faster and are more impressive than the movies. The system also is not identical to Kotor 2, but draws heavily upon it. Namely, the amount of exp required for higher levels is raised, mines do not give as much exp so the MC is not throwing hands with Palpatine on day 1, and the crafting is overhauled.
