It's been very cool to see so much Star Wars: The Old Republic activity on Bluesky! I am the creator of the blog "This Week in Aurebesh" and for nine years I've been translating the alien languages of the game and discussing topics related to SWTOR and Star Wars in general. Here are a few favorites.

Ruins of Nul is one of the flashpoint objectives in #SWTOR this week. While you're there, definitely take a moment to enjoy the landscape of my very favorite location in the entire game. Here is a stitched together panorama of the sublime view from mountaintop.

Thanks to all the flashpoint fun, I was able to complete the final objective in #SWTOR 's current Galactic Season, and now T7-01 and the potato F4-RM Aggricultural Droid are proper best buddies.

Happy Thanksgiving, #SWTOR!
Pets of the Old Republic #4: The Orosquab! In honor of Life Day and Thanksgiving, I take a closer look at the most Turkey-like of SWTOR's pets. Follow the link below for information about Orobirds in Star Wars and the real life Terror Birds that inspired them!

After months of working at it between projects, I finally finished my Star Wars animation 💚
This was also my first time properly animating a creature with a gorilla-like walk.

This Week in Aurebesh: Welcome to the Rock! If I had a nickle for every time a rock in Star Wars got a name I'd have two nickles, which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice. I share thoughts on the news and controversies of #SWTOR's next big update!

Last night I spent some time exploring the upcoming Dantooine Biomes on the #SWTOR PTS and once again the team's environment artists have done amazing work. The interior and exterior spaces are distinct, diverse and flat out beautiful. I look forward to exploring the zones fully when it goes live!

Here is something I did not include my article about the Thurrb because it feels too speculative: I half suspect SWTOR's Thurrb pet was inspired by Futurama's Hypno-Toad, but they "Star Wars-ified" it by making it a Hippo-Toad. Canon or Legends? You decide! #SWTOR

This Week in Aurebesh presents Pets of the Old Republic #22: The Earthen Thurrb! This creature, unique to #SWTOR, is part frog, part hippo and part walrus, making it a froggopotarus, I guess. Check out my latest post to learn about it and its full grown kin!

I have a fondness for the smaller mounts in #SWTOR; they just feel faster. This Verdier Luxline speeder is the final reward in the current Galactic Season. The emblem with the manufacturer's name is written in #aurebesh using the very appropriate Aurebesh Racer AF Mono by @aurekfonts.bsky.social!

I have been writing this weekend about the one of the most obscure pets in all of #SWTOR, a creature with literally zero lore, but I still had cut out a section connecting it to ancient Mesopotamian mythology. Sometimes I amaze even myself.

I would be lying if I said this guy wasn’t a big reason why there have been less scripted videos on YouTube lately. But he’s done for now, until spring!!
Learned a lot. Super pumped about how he turned out.

I do love the #SWTOR Feast of Prosperity event, but gosh are the two new "Grand" carpets really smol, especially compared to last year's addition. I really do wish we could scale some decorations like this.
