The original reference sheet for the LAD. From all the way back at the tail end of 2012 when I first really joined the wider community! Crazy to think it's been 13 years... Back then G'lek was a VERY different character concept from what he is today.

Back then the Ta'rall (G'lek's species) were a more fantasy race, tribal in their technology level. The seeds of the modern day, science fiction incarnation were already there, though. Their home world was much the same as it is today, minus the more expansive technological developments. Their solar system has gone largely unchanged in its underlying structure and principles. Much of their underpinning culture remains the same.

In the 13 years since this reference sheet was made so much has happened. I'm on a third job, been through multiple relationships, been ghosted and then dumped by what I thought was a close friend group, and had many other high and low moments along the way. You know what though?

I wouldn't have had it any other way. Thank you to each and every person who has been with my on the journey up to this point, whether you are with me today or not. You've all made this a journey worth experiencing.

Cheers to all of you!
