What is your star wars character of choice?
What is your star wars character of choice?
For me it would be the wise goblin man Yoda, an absolute classic jedi who spits truth and teaches the next generation about the force.
"Do or do not, there is no try" - Yoda, 1980
What about you, fellow jedi or sith, what character brings you closer to the force?
My man R2-D2. Took no shit from anyone, did what he thought was right, was around from the beginning, and survived practically everything. Plus was a loyal friend to Threepio even when he was acting like an idiot
When I was a teen I always wanted to get my hands on a machine that makes subtitles on tapes or however TF it was done in the 90s and make my own version where R2 is just absolutely foul mouthed and abusive the whole time.
Without R2 ANH would have gone very differently.
Obi-Wan Kenobi for me too. He's wise, calm under pressure, and a skilled Jedi who is always there when you need him, whether as a mentor or a defender of peace and justice in the galaxy
as a mentor
ummmmm
Be careful when practicing with him tho. He has a tendency to delimb his opponents.
Barf. "I'm a mawg! Half man, half dog. I'm my own best friend."
I always liked Qui-Gon.
A Jedi who was always true to his faith in the force and never fell into to the politics of the order.
I am part of the Power Droid Posse.
Gonk-gonk
Hell yeah there's more of us!
Revan. Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic.
A lot of people like Kreia from KOTOR2 but Revan will always have my heart. My favorite SW character, though canon trilogy Thrawn probably ties.
I started reading some of the books again a couple years ago and every time Bane or Tenebrous think about Revan, I always smile a little inside. Greatest Sith Lord in my eyes.
Chewbacca. Because I am also large, hairy, and communicate in a series of grunts and growls
It was pretty much Obi-Wan until I saw Rogue One, Cassian Andor is just a great character, maybe because of the way Diego Luna portrays him. The way he analyses his environment and the way convoluted schemes around him play out is some of the best the franchise has to offer.
Damn right, meatbag!
Glup Shitto is the coolest, i cannot believe nobody's mentioned him yet
Wedge Antilies.
"Yub Yub Comander."
thrawn
I agree
R2-D2. That spunky little droid is the only reason there is a Skywalker Saga!
Always loved me some Mara Jade and Talon Karrde.
Absolutely solid choice both.
Talon isn't that deep of a character, but he's a great look at a smuggler who "made it". Mara, meanwhile, is just distilled awesome.
Ahsoka Tano.
She is driving everyone crazy but she cares so much, and empathize with her so much.
Man, the clone wars really fucked me up didn't it...
War is intolerable. We have been deceived into thinking that we must be a part of it. I say the moment we committed to fighting, we already lost.
Duchess Satine Kryze
Cal Kestis, his story is awesome and also really interesting. I don’t think we’ve ever seen a twist to the dark side as good and gradual as his in videogame form. I personally can’t wait for the next game
I'm a simple man, so any ewok will do.
Salacious Crumb for the galactic win
My Yorkie looks exactly like salacious crumb at times.
Is that was you call it? I call it my Wookie, but I haven't shaved down there in a while
In the card game, I was super familiar with this guy, but it was the only card in the game that I had no clue where it came from.
Later, I learnt that is part of a junked 1940's Derwent jet engine. (Scott Manley)
I loved the SW card game as a kid, but everyone wanted to play Magic instead. I will admit, however, that the rules probably weren't the greatest. You just played for that 1 game out of 20 where you actually managed to get the right cards out to blow up the Death Star or superlaser a planet, or had a Vader vs. Luke fight.
Also IG-88 had a whole backstory in the EU (now SW Legends) where there were FOUR of him
And one became the Death Star.
Ahsoka Tano.
Jaina Solo aka Sword of the Jedi
insert explanation that I'm too tired for
D-O
My namesake doesn't last terribly long...
Grand Admiral Thrawn - but only the EU version.
Really a fascinating character in so many respects. One of the more complex and difficult to decipher ones. Was he really a genius out for the good of the galaxy? Or a social status-climber willing to latch on to any cause he could while serving his own ends? Were his more questionable deeds really done regretfully "for the greater good", or was that just an excuse?
Darth jar jar if we're allowing any peripheral characters/universes.
Otherwise, to me, ol palpy palpy poopoo would be the most interesting man in that galaxy. he controlled the galactic empire for a while. used it to expand power and presence, and sought immortality. etc.
now whether or not I approve of him being in IX... well... let's just say that wasn't him but a revived amalgamation of several sith.
I can't explain why but maybe Kylo Ren
The Special Edition version of Sy Snootles.
"Jedi Rocks" rocks.
Darth Vader, always wanted to know who he was protecting when luke attempted to kill Sidious. Was he protecting his master or his son from the dark side?
Dr Spock
The child psychologist?
Finn (FN-2187)
He follows his heart so radically. I admire that.
