<h2>My Connection to the <cite>KotOR</cite> Series</h2> <h2>My History with the <cite>KotOR</cite> Series</h2>
<p>Even though I had been a <cite>Star Wars</cite> fan since I was 13 in 2005, I was not aware of the existence of the <cite>Knights of the Old Republic</cite> series until around 2010. I started playing the first <cite>KotOR</cite> game in early 2011, immediately followed by <cite>KotOR 2</cite>, and the series has been one of my special interests ever since.</p> <p>I had been a <cite>Star Wars</cite> fan since I was 13 in 2005 after watching <cite>Revenge of the Sith</cite> in cinema. However, I was not aware of the existence of the <cite>Knights of the Old Republic</cite> video game series until around 2010, after seeing other <cite>Star Wars</cite> fans on Baidu Tieba talked about those games. I started playing the first <cite>KotOR</cite> game in early 2011, immediately followed by <cite>KotOR 2</cite>, and the series has been one of my special interests ever since.</p>
<p>My investment in the <cite>KotOR</cite> series has evolved over time, leading to me starting to get into modding the games in the mid-2010s. The very first <cite>KotOR</cite> mod I created was <a href="https://deadlystream.com/files/file/1012-tsl-improved-party-outfits/" target="_blank">TSL Improved Party Outfits</a> in 2015, while the first KotOR mod I released to the public was <a href="https://deadlystream.com/files/file/968-visas-marr-and-female-exile-romance/" target="_blank">Visas Marr and Female Exile Romance</a> on December 15, 2016.</p> <p>I was hooked immediately to the <cite>KotOR</cite> series when I played them. The first <cite>KotOR</cite> game was the first Western RPG I had played. I was drawn to the games' story and characters and the games' focus on them, since the <cite>KotOR</cite> series was also the most story-heavy games I played at the time. KotOR was also the first video game I played where you can pursue a romance with a character, which was a concept that blew my young mind at the time., because before <cite>KotOR</cite>, I thought a romance between your player character and an NPC you like can only exist in imagination via shipping or fanfiction.</p>
<p>My investment in the <cite>KotOR</cite> series has evolved over time, leading to me learning to mod the games and become a modder.</p>

<h2><cite>KotOR</cite> Fan Listings</h2> <h2>My History with <cite>KotOR</cite> Modding</h2>
<p>I have joined <a href="https://glitterskies.org/kotor/" target="_blank">Erased Identity</a> and <a href="https://glitterskies.org/kotor2/" target="_blank">Mysteries of Malachor</a>, the fan listings for the two <cite>KotOR</cite> games.</p> <p>I began to use and get interested in <cite>KotOR</cite> mods since the mid-2010s, in no small part thanks to <a href="https://deadlystream.com/files/file/578-tsl-restored-content-mod/" target="_blank">The Sith Lords Restored Content Mod (TSLRCM)</a>, which is widely regarded as an essential mod for the best experience with <cite>KotOR 2</cite>, as the game's rushed development led to many contents being cut from the game. This led me to discover more <cite>KotOR</cite> mods hosted on <a href="https://deadlystream.com/" target="_blank">Deadly Stream</a>, which include the developers of TSLRCM, and <a href="https://www.gamefront.com/" target="_blank">GameFront</a>.</p>
<div style="display: flex;"> <p>In mid-2010s, the <cite>KotOR</cite> fan circle I was involved in on Tumblr also included modders, who inspired me to learn to create mods myself. I did not have any programming exprience when I started learning modding <cite>KotOR</cite>, so it took practice to learn and understand the modding tutorials on Deadly Stream and LucasForums (R.I.P.)</p>

<a href="https://glitterskies.org/kotor2/" target="_blank"><img src="/links/fanlistings/kotor2-100x50.jpg" alt="A website button of a Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2 fanlisting" title="Mysteries of Malachor - Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2: The Sith Lords fanlisting"></a> <p>The very first <cite>KotOR</cite> mod I created was <a href="https://deadlystream.com/files/file/1012-tsl-improved-party-outfits/" target="_blank">TSL Improved Party Outfits</a> in 2015, though initially I only meant it for personal use, until I released it to the public on February 4, 2017. The first <cite>KotOR</cite> mod I released to the public was <a href="https://deadlystream.com/files/file/968-visas-marr-and-female-exile-romance/" target="_blank">Visas Marr and Female Exile Romance</a> on December 15, 2016.</p>
</div>
<p>Making same-gender romance mods for <cite>KotOR 2</cite> was the primary motivation for me to make and release <cite>KotOR</cite> mods myself. I was immensely frustrated by the total lack of same-gender romance mods for any of the <cite>KotOR 2</cite> characters, and every other LGBTQ+ <cite>KotOR</cite> fans I have interacted with on Tumblr share the same sentiment. Therefore, I decided to stop waiting for <cite>KotOR 2</cite> same-gender romance mods to happen, and be the change myself. To my great satisfication, my same-gender romance mods have been well-received, with fellow LGBTQ+ players expressing gratitude for their existence. My <a href="https://deadlystream.com/forum/files/file/977-handmaiden-and-female-exile-disciple-and-male-exile-romance/" target="_blank">Handmaiden and Female Exile - Disciple and Male Exile Romance</a> mod would go on to win the <a href="https://deadlystream.com/topic/5983-mod-of-the-year-results/" target="_blank">Mod of the Year 2017</a> award on Deadly Stream.</p>
<p>I love modding the <cite>KotOR</cite> games, not only because the games are a special interest of mine, but also I love creating things for my interests. Modifying the games made me feel like I have the power to change the game to make them better and more enjoyable, and thus improve my experience with playing the games.</p>
