By Bindu's beer, this place is immense!
Hope everyone's doing really well. I'm a long-time fan of the franchise in all it's forms, and have a special place in my heart for the original Marvel comic book series, when there were no rules, all the way through the sequel trilogy, and many of the EU and newer canon novels. I've even gotten the opportunity to explore Galaxy's Edge at Walt Disney World.
I've been looking for a place to do some creative writing within the Star Wars universe. I tend to write lighter prose and not take myself too seriously, because I'm old and life's too short to be moody all the time.
As far as character ideas, I've been rereading a bunch of old Joker comics from the 1970's, back when he was the madcap Ace of Knaves who did wacky things because they were funny rather than, say, cutting his own face off, and was wondering how a crazy person would fare if he were to find an old Sith holocron. My opinion is the Sith as a whole wouldn't take him because they're all about rigid structure and people knowing their place, and certainly the Jedi wouldn't want him because he would consider himself an agent of comedy and chaos. Would something like that be feasible here? Would other people want to co-write stories with such a character?

And agree, this is a quite interesting concept!
