How to Fix the Alien Universe

How I could fix the Alien Universe by combining all of the existing lore, and paying respect to the genius that is the design of the Xenomorph.

Sorrowful Announcement

Mon, 11 Jul 2022 00:09:59 GMT

It is with a heavy heart and indescribable sorrow, that I inform you of the passing of Meganda Abauog Cordero, the voice and inspiration for Liliana Emerald. Due to circumstances beyond anyone’s control, Megan needed to take a break from Weekend Star Warriors but was planning to return when circumstances allowed. She was one of our few listeners and continued to follow our adventures even in the absense of her. The investigation is still ongoing, so I implore everyone to leave it to the professionals, and please respect the privacy of her family and loved ones. Our show will be on an extended hiatus in order to give us all time to grieve the loss of such a wonderful, beautiful, kind and talented person who was taken from us all too soon. Her character of Liliana Emerald will be treated with the utmost respect, as we all try to strive for the ideals Megan worked so hard to instill through her portrayal. None is more poignant than this interaction here: “Oh Boba...” “Why are you talking to him like he's your friend?” “Because everyone is my friend.”

And over the past 20 years, the Gungans have gotten smarter, stronger, and more determined to bring down the Empire. Particularly a lone Gungan known only as "The Shamed One..."
