[ canon update ]

— 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: Sara
Character: Armitage Hux
Current Canon Point: End of Last Jedi
Updated Canon Point: After getting shot by Allegiant General Pryde.

Updated Background: Hux's background at the Wiki

Updated Personality:

After the battle of Crait and Ren's ascension to Supreme Leader, Hux loses a lot of his command because of Ren's mistrust of him. However, it does not only stop there. When the Finalizer becomes heavily damaged during a skirmish with the Resistance over Batuu, he and Ren switch ships to the Steadfast, with makes Hux lose what little power he had left, since he's now under orders of Allegiant General Pryde. He basically got demoted and that's a huge blow to him, since Hux's whole thing was to rise to the top of the First Order and become Supreme Leader himself.

With little room to move up the chain anymore, the idea of becoming a spy or at least letting the Resistance grow in power most likely started to form in his mind, because Hux fully loathes Ren's leadership, finding him to be chaotic and mad that doesn't fully represent the First Order's (Mostly Hux's) ideals in establishing 'peace' throughout the galaxy. If he can weaken Ren's hold on the First Order, perhaps there's a chance still. However, when Ren finds Emperor Palpatine to be alive and with a large Sith Fleet in Exegol, Hux finally takes the first step to give important intel to the Resistance.

Because at this point, seeing Palpatine and this Sith Fleet, knowing that the First Order will be overtaken or at the very least absorbed into the this group to be known as the Final Order, that he believes his career has no upward momentum at all. It's one thing if the First Order continued to exist as itself, but with this Sith Fleet and the return of Palpatine, there's no chance for him. He hates anyone that has connections to the Force or believes in it, and every officer and stormtrooper in the new fleet are loyal to Palpatine or at the very least, Sith ideals. They may have the firepower he's always wanted, but he just hates everything that they represent and has no motivation to work with them.

So, he betrays all of them, detailing this new fleet to the Resistance. He even helps Poe, Finn, and Chewbacca to survive their execution after getting caught. Of course, this leads to Hux getting shot and killed by Pyrde, but at that point, Hux didn't seem to care all that much, because his life's work has been overtaken by some boogeyman that appeared almost out of nowhere without warning.

As he said in the movie, he doesn't care if the Resistance wins, he just wants Kylo Ren to lose. Sure, he certainly dislikes Palpatine, but he also considers all of this to be Ren's fault as well. He was the start of his downfall of his career in the First Order and the person that Hux had to deal with for years, so his personal hatred for him is above the others. His hatred for Ren is more than his hatred for the Resistance, so it's less of a change in heart, as he doesn't feel bad for anything that he's done, but he just didn't want to see Ren succeed.

Because of his betrayal and eventual death, Hux will be his usual angry and hateful self in Empatheias. However, there will eventually be grief and a feeling of being lost, when it finally hits him that the First Order was just a stepping stone all along for Palpatine. He doesn't feel regret, really, but just filled with a certain level of despair knowing that everything he's done was essentially just dirty work for Palpatine. The First Order was just a part of his big plan. Along with this, his hatred for the Resistance won't be as pronounced and he might actually hold conversations with others, with his persona being more subdued overall.

Updated Abilities: Being the pettiest man in the galaxy.

Other: I'd like him to be fully healed upon arrival.
