My entire reason for creating
Jannik Morlandt
in 2014 was because I wanted to use Hugh Dancy in Hannibal as a playby (Great show; I switched to Luke Evans some years later). And I decided to make him a seer, simply because I'd never written one before.
We all have our reasons, ne?
So when I started writing Jannik, he was just some teenage quetarra player and lead signer for a band from the lower levels of Coruscant, who had a drinking problem because he was trying to dull/forget the terrifying 'nightmares' and 'daymares' (Force Visions) he'd have. Eventually this became such a problem that it landed him in the hospital, and he came to the attention of the Jedi.
Sometime thereafter
Kira Talith
took him on as a padawan and the rest, as they say, is history.
Jannik would not have such a rich background, story, and breadth of experience and knowledge, and wouldn't be the man he is without all that time she and I wrote together. He is, to this day, one of my fondest characters, one I keep coming back to and wanting to bring out to write, again and again.
And he still plays that Zabrak quetarra
