Competition: Unredeemable

Finished
Unredeemable

Sith, Dark Jedi, Merc for hire, Operative with a broken moral compass.

It doesn’t matter who or what your character is. You’ve done things others would consider wrong or even evil for a very long time. Do you ever think about the end story?

Just as Darth Vader was redeemed in his final moments, some may wish to atone and change, but can you? Is redemption a distant and fleeting dream or a true possibility? Could your character change and walk a brighter path or are they too far gone in the darkness of their chosen path? Is anyone truly unredeemable?

Write a story about your character and delve into the question of redemption for them. Can they turn back to the light before the end, or are they without any chance or room for atonement and redemption. Use this as a deep dive into your character’s moral standing and psyche.

You may use your main, an alt, or npc character as long as they have a character sheet. Minimum of 1000 words, no maximum.

Entries will be graded by the fiction rubric 3.0 Please submit entries as .doc or .pdf files.

Remy hasn't really done too much at the moment, so instead I focused on the idea that she is heading down a very dark path, and tried to show how she might be "redeemed" by pulling changing where she is going. Sort of a "horizontal" redemption instead of a vertical one if that makes any sense.
