[ canon update ]
If you'd like to update your character to a different canon point, fill out the form below and comment to this entry. Please note that characters can only be updated to source material that has been out for at least one month. We will try and process canon updates within 48 hours.
ICly, When your character is on a canon update, they completely disappear from the world. It's almost as if they were removed the game, however there's a key difference. Their amulet will remain and be in a translucent state. Characters will be gone from the game from three days to a week. They will reappear wherever their amulet is and can continue their progress from wherever they left off. They will also retain all of their memories.
If you have any questions, contact one of the mods or ask them on the form.
Player:
Character:
Current Canon Point: The canon point upon application.
Updated Canon Point: The new, desired canon point.
Updated Background: All we need is all the new information, so just a summary of what's happened between the current and updated canon point.
Updated Personality: If anything has changed about the character's personality fill it here. Just like in the original application process, we need as much details a possible, especially if there were any big changes.
Updated Abilities:
Other: Anything else worth mentioning.

Character: Rey
Current Canon Point: End of TFA
Updated Canon Point: End of TLJ
Updated Background: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Rey#Finding_the_Last_Jedi
Updated Personality: Essentially, Rey is coming back a little less naive. Luke wasn’t a cool badass legend ready to grab a laser sword and Save the World. The Jedi weren’t just awesome mysterious magical wizards who always knew everything and did everything right. Kylo Ren wasn’t a heartless evil monster, nor was Ben Solo a noble hero who just needed a good pep talk to snap him out of his goth phase. Nothing was as cut-and-dry as she expected it to be, and Rey’s had to do some growing up to digest all of that.
Most importantly, Rey lost her naivety regarding her own identity. She’s no longer so fixated on her family, having had to finally face the fact that they abandoned her with no apparent plan to return. And now that her family isn’t the answer to the question of who she is, Rey is left to come up with that for herself, and she learns that she doesn’t have to be the “nobody from nowhere” she’s accepted that she is until now. When she meets the Resistance survivors, Poe has heard of her, and Leia assures her that they have “everything they need” to rebuild the Rebellion in Rey, basically telling Rey that she can be a hero. Even Kylo’s botched confession that she “has no place in this story” and is “nothing” (but not to him) helps her, if in a roundabout, perhaps not entirely as intended way, because after that she sets out to carve herself a place in the story. (Which is not to say that she’s trying to prove him wrong. More like he gets her thinking, and she turns his pessimistic “you’re nothing” into optimistic “you’re right… so I’m gonna start being something!”)
Updated Abilities: Considering she only got about 1.5 lessons on the Force, I tend to believe it’s not necessarily Rey’s abilities that got an upgrade, rather her confidence. As she becomes more confident in her own identity and self-worth, she also uses the Force more easily. That said, here’s a list.
Lifting rocksTelekenesis - she’s better at this now. Like “lifting 30 giant boulders without breaking a sweat” better.Lightsaber stuff - she doesn’t have to do mid-battle meditations to be badass anymore.
Force Skype??? - she doesn’t really have control over this, but she and Kylo Ren have a freaky Force connection that allows them to see and hear each other, as well as make physical contact, from across extremely long distances.
Believing... in herself...? - idk she’s just more conscious of the Force now. 1 out of those 1.5 Force lessons was really good.
Other: I’m planning to have her blue lightsaber disappear with her when she goes for canon update, and she’ll come back with it broken. Because frankly the last thing Emp needs is more versions of that saber. Also I was gonna have her gone the 24th through the 27th!
Questions: Nope!
