My sole purpose in joining wookieepedia, after having enjoyed it for nearly two years, is to search out and mercilessly correct any and all errors in grammar, spelling, punctuation, usage, or any other standard in English language writing. While wookieepedia has increased my knowledge of Star Wars continuity tenfold (or probably more), I don't feel I'm at all an expert, nor do I own a vast library of literature to source from. Therefore, you won't see me creating articles or editing for content or continuity. However, the sheer number of grammatical errors I've encountered on this wiki is mind-boggling and has finally prompted me to join,, if for no other reason than to bring as many articles as I can up to grammatical snuff. That is my mission.

Darth Cuddles is a character I created for a parody fanfic story line I came up with involving a dimwitted, failed dark side adept of Darth Vader who proclaims himself Dark Lord after he hears of Vader and Palpatine's deaths. Along with his equally stupid apprentice, Darth Tulip, and a cadre of farce sensitive, lightsaber-wielding squirrels, he sets off on a series of wacky adventures with hilarious consequences. Unfortunately, the project never got off the ground. Probably for the best.

My first glimpses into the expanded universe were two book-and-tape sets I had as a child, "Planet of the Hoojibs" and "Droid World." While I always loved the original trilogy, my interest in the EU fell off until I had a fanboy roommate, whose arrival in my life coincided neatly with the 1999 release of "The Phantom Menace." Since then, I have grown into a full-on Star Wars geek. I don't get into any other science fiction, really, though I'm a big fan of Stargate. To me, without the Force and Lightsabers, space adventure just isn't that exciting.
