This game goes sssssoooooo sssssslllllloooooowwwwwwwllllllyyyy. I also cannot fucking stand Bastila. I’m also tired of playing LS, but I just love Carth too much. Heehee. I’ll go back to it, I’m sure, but right now I’ve decided to play KotOR II and go DS all the way.

Well, uh, I started playing, or rather, replaying Morrowind, but obviously didn’t put it on my All Consuming. I got a lot farther this time, but then I had to have ECT again, so that was that. I don’t think I’ve completely forgotten where I am or what I’m doing, but lately I’ve been itching to play KotOR.

Since all the previous times I’ve played I was always the same class character, and since I wasn’t very far into the game yet anyway, I decided to start over again as a Scout instead of a Scoundrel. Not too charming, but way better in a fight. (y)

I have my teammate, #8 Katie “Schweigs” (my personal Boba Fett, puck hunting, defense(wo)man), to thank for this. This post, BTW, is dedicated to NYC Watchdog. Be sure to listen to the appropriate theme music as you read my hockey bio!

Darth Goalie, Dark Lord of the Tigers, was the scourge of other women’s hockey teams, a mistress of the dark side of the Ice, and one of the Coach’s most trusted servants. She wasn’t always a fearsome enforcer-of-the-pipes, however.

She began life as Barb Natividad, a young punk from Chicago skilled as a right winger and strong on the Ice. Barb’s very origins are mysterious. Her mother revealed that there was no biological father (or so she probably wishes ). Inexplicably, she became pregnant with the Ice-prodigy and carried her to term. Some among the Tigers believed this to be part of an ancient prophecy of a Chosen One, willed into life by the midi-chlorians, who would bring balance to an increasingly darkening Ice. There was another possibility, though. The goaltender could have been the creation of sinister Goaltending manipulations, as other Dark Lords of the Ice conspired to bring about the perfect apprentice by coaxing life from lifelessness.

Once discovered by a maverick Tiger recruiter, Barb was taken before the Tigers to be trained. There was some controversy on the subject — despite the recruiter’s adamant assurances that Natividad was the one spoken of in the prophecy, the Tigers were hesitant to allow her training at the age of 37.

…Barb was renamed Darth Goalie. The Orange Tigers conspiracy, which had been festering in the shadows of the WCHL for 11 years, sprang into action. The Coach elevated himself to the position of Emperor, and dispatched Darth Goalie as his ultimate enforcer. With her unparalleled Ice abilities, Darth Goalie blocked the slapshots, backhands, and coasting shots on net. She led her elite Orange Tiger trooper forces through the polished rinks of metro Chicago, cutting a swath of death and destruction through the remaining women’s hockey teams in Illinois.
