Who Is FibroJedi?
I am a thirty-something Fibromyalgia sufferer who lives in Scotland. I have a wife, a daughter and own a cat. I also drink far too much coffee (coffee being pretty bad for Fibromyalgia is a hard slog for me!). Due to a sharp decline in my health in late 2016 I can no longer hold down a ‘normal job’, so am looking to support my family through other online ventures now.
I got to love Star Wars when I was about 15 when a friend of mine ran a browser-based game set in the Star Wars universe. I probably understand Jedi philosophy a bit too well, but no I don’t speak Wookiee, Trandoshan or any of the other languages in the world of Star Wars. I’m a half-geek if you will – but I speak Basic (English).
I chose the name FibroJedi as ‘Fibro’ is the shortened version of ‘Fibromyalgia’ and I have somewhat more in common with the Jedi philosophy than the Sith code, though as you’ll see from this site, I’m not averse to role-playing or writing FanFiction about the Sith. I’m enjoying both sides in my gaming time!
The Arcturus and Ghiran Legacies
My main way of distracting myself from dealing with high levels of Fibro pain is to play SWTOR, where I have various characters on the EU’s Darth Malgus and the Star Forge servers. I am also an active player and blogger of LotRO.
My SWTOR legacies are The Arcturus Legacy (on Darth Malgus) and my main character is Cor-Jhan Arcturus (Jedi Shadow – Tank Class) and The Ghiran Legacy (on The Star Forge).
Fan Fiction
From time-to-time I am writing Star Wars Fan Fiction, based on characters I have created in SWTOR. My main ones are Talitha’koum and Cor-Jhan Arcturus.
Do Stick Around
I will try to add something here most weeks but no guarantees. It depends on my pain levels. But thanks so much for visiting and feel free to Follow on Twitter or ‘friend’ me in-game if you also play SWTOR. My main characters are:
Darth Malgus (EU Server)
- Republic: Cor-Jhan (Shadow), Alekah (Guardian)

May the Force Be Ever With You, may it make you strong.
