It’s no problem at all! Most ships carry food rations to be used in case of an emergency, and more rations are very easy to get (and they’re cheap) so they could well be eating those for breakfast.
Rations don’t taste very good, though, and the Ghost crew has access to other foods. Plenty of fresh ingredients are found in abundance on Lothal, as I’m sure you know, so they could be having jogan fruit, maize rolls or cereal with blue milk. It’s also possible, though not confirmable, that they could have picked up something else like bread, jogan fruit cake or, of course, space waffles.
So bad news: this would mean your character enlisted in 29 BBY. The Grand Army was founded in 22 BBY, and it indeed was made up of only clones and Jedi. It’s pretty much impossible for your character to have served in the Army. Sorry.
However, they could have served in the Judicial Forces of the Republic. The Judicials were like a peacekeeping force. All of them were militarily trained. The need for such a force decreased as the Clone Wars began and the Jedi got more involved, but you’ve got several years until that happens. Judicials attend the Judicial Academy before serving, and because Tarkin attended, we know that it’s been around for long enough for your character to do it too.
I hope that’s a viable option for your character. If you need more information or a completely different idea, feel free to send another ask!
Word Counter – Not only does it count the number of words you’ve written, it tells you which words are used most often and how many times they appear.
Tip Of My Tongue– Have you ever had a word on the tip of your tongue, but you just can’t figure out what it is? This site searches words by letters, length, definition, and more to alleviate that.
Readability Score – This calculates a multitude of text statistics, including character, syllable, word, and sentence count, characters and syllables per word, words per sentence, and average grade level.
Writer’s Block (Desktop Application) – This free application for your computer will block out everything on your computer until you meet a certain word count or spend a certain amount of time writing.
(as of April 25, 2014), this RPG supplement guide can be useful for helping to provide more background for this area of space. Currently, the only planets we know of that are canon for this region are Rakata Prime and Ilum, but it’s also where the ice planet used for Starkiller Base was from.
→ Potentially useful for: If you want some neighboring planets for the First Order to interact with, these might be of use!
These are words I’ve either had to look up for myself, or saw them written wrong in fics that otherwise had decent spelling. Directly copy-pasted from the file I keep for myself. Heavily weighted towards SWR terms, as that’s the fandom (sub-fandom?) I write in for the most part.
unknown capitalization: various race names; the word for “referring to the Empire”; master (when used to refer to a Jedi’s relation; such as, what Obi-wan was to Anakin)
planets: Malachor, Mustafar, Atollon, Dathomir, Jedha, Mandalore, Ryloth, Lira San
names: Zeb’s last name (Orrelios), the Bendu
not sure how to spell: crystal in the lightsaber (kyber), alphabet (Aurebesh), that one fruit (meiloorun)
other stuff: “datapad” is one word, TIE fighter, medbay (one word), clone trooper (two words, no caps), comlink
other stuff I need to look up: Zeb’s weapon-thing, communication device, caffeine beverage
Thank you for sending this! I’ll get these added to the list
These are called holoprojectors. They can come in a bunch of different sizes, but they’re generally all called the same thing. There are some instances of handheld holoprojectors being referred to as holopads (which comes from the term holoprojector pads). If you’re talking about, for example, the ones the clones carry, it’s your choice which term to use.
On that note, I’ve been working on a list of vocabulary which will be linked in my blog description and home page when it goes up. If you or anyone else would like to suggest stuff to include, go ahead and do it! @pomrania especially, because you gave me the idea to do it in the first place.
I hope that helps, and don’t be afraid to ask if you need more help with terminology!
Hmm… I suppose the first thing to consider is the incredible variation in different cultures on Coruscant. I’m not sure you could say that there’s even a singular Coruscanti culture, especially as the Empire rose and started introducing their policies of xenophobia. However, with your Imperial officers, you would almost certainly be dealing with the culture within the Empire itself. The Empire put a lot of effort into promoting ideals of minimalism, and would probably encourage a very simple wedding. I doubt anyone within the Empire would protest skipping the ceremony altogether.
The general culture of rich humans living on Coruscant doesn’t include any Coruscanti-specific marriage traditions (as in, they might still follow some from a religion or a homeworld other than Coruscant), but a lot of the stuff they did was very extravagant, simply because they could afford it. If your officers have rich family on Coruscant who have an influence on the wedding plans, it might turn out very differently from a plain old Imperial marriage.
Basically, neither human culture in the Empire nor Coruscanti High Human Culture included a special marriage ceremony. Following the former would result in a very simple ceremony or none at all, and the latter would result in the opposite, provided they had enough money to pull it off. I hope that’s helpful!
