If that's the case, and it's so easy to hide from the Empire, then why does everyone get so mad when it turns out lots of other Jedi successfully went into hiding?

because there probably wasn't a lot of them to begin with so they know which ones they killed.

Got any deathsticks?
I was playing the Revenge of the Sith PS2 hack'n'slasher. There's a pretty cool moment in the level where you fight Serra Keto and Cin Drallig where you end up fighting them in a Jedi training room with narrated holograms. If you slash the holograms up during the fight, the speech patterns get corrupted and bastardize the Jedi Code into something akin to the Sith.

"We're all here to decide if the Star Wars Extended Universe remains canon. This could take a while."

"Zombies. The EU has zombies."

"EU is out. I guess everyone can go home early today."
Zombies are still canon since they show up in the Clone Wars cartoon.

The new movies barely acknowledge the prequels, they aren't going to give a poo poo about contradicting any plot points in the dumb cartoon. It's "canon" in that Disney can use it for video games and action figures.

Personality and traits
As a stormtrooper, TK-119 was totally loyal to Emperor Palpatine. He unquestioningly followed orders, and was willing to sacrifice his life to complete a mission.

Very instructive. Good read. Thrilling character. Thanks Wookieepedia.

By the way if anybody had any doubts that the new EU would be filled with the same "everyone knows everyone" bullshit apparently the weird black-and-white-catsuit lady at Maz's who tells the First Order about the gang being there is directly related (story-wise not like father/daughter) to one of the Space Asians who try to kill Han and Chewie earlier in the movie, and also every single minor character has or will have a detailed backstory:

that Dagobah cave article can't be that bad, let's check it out

quote:

When Luke Skywalker traveled to Dagobah to train with Yoda in 3 ABY, the elder Master tasked him to enter the cave. Luke confronted an illusion of Darth Vader within and defeated it in a lightsaber duel, dipping into the passion of the dark side in the process.

oh darth vader? that illusion? hmmm *clicks through*

Dark Spirit/Legends posted:

The Dark Spirit was a protean manifestation of the dark side of the Force that dwelt within the Dark Side Cave on the planet Dagobah.

...

After a short duel, Skywalker gave in to rage and beheaded the spirit.[1] As the apprentice watched the helmet-encased head flying away, the Dark Spirit's armored body completely vanished in the shadows.[12] For a moment the helmet remained on the ground completely still, then it cracked in half, revealing Luke Skywalker's own face, looking up at him. The young apprentice realized that, although that construct had been defeated, he still had much training left to do before confronting the real Vader.[1][2] In no time, the ghostly vision of the decapitated head dissolved into nothingness.[12]

wait, time is a linked article?

Wookieepedia is absolutely my favourite ridiculously detailed wiki for a thing ever. I think part of that is probably how completely bloated and detailed the EU got.

Anyway, here is my favourite article today http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Most_comfortable_chair_ever_designed

Also the article for chairs in general.

quote:

Chairs were pieces of furniture humanoids could sit in. Like many objects in the galaxy, chairs could also function temporarily as ad hoc weapons. They were sometimes made of wood.

e: basically every article about some mundane thing like paper or wheels or spoons

I loved the book Darksaber, where the Hutts built this janky rip off of the Death Star. It was one of those 'I suppose now i'll just read anything' books that turned out to be quite amusing.

Also the Rogue Squadron series is amazing.

Although, RIP Kyle Katarn, you was one of my favourite things.

yeah but I mean a chair is a loving chair. A chair is something that a humanoid sits in regardless of the time period. Idk. I guess the fact that there is an article about loving chairs bothers me more than tensing. I wonder what kind of drama goes on behind the scenes with wookipedia editors.

Uhh "SithGoku12" you mentioned a chair in this article on Darth Icky but you fail to link the appropriate article describing a chair so I'm afraid I'm going to have to flag this article until this can be rectified.

Also SithGoku12 i need you to write a Canon and Legends article both citing appropriate sources.

this is the best part of the star wars wiki, its hilarious slavish devotion to pretending that the star wars universe is actually a real thing

that led me to han solo's sky house


Han Solo's sky house was the dwelling of Rebel hero General Han Solo and his Wookiee companion Chewbacca, designed and built personally by the pair. Solo and Chewbacca had long had the dream of settling in a sky house—a concept of their own design—before they finally got the chance in 5 ABY, when Cloud City Baron Administrator Lando Calrissian offered his old friend Solo a lease on a parcel of sky near Cloud City on Bespin. Solo and Chewbacca took a leave from the Senate Planetary Intelligence Network in order to construct the home in a rented Cloud City warehouse. The sky house was elaborate, a unique feat of engineering which boasted modern conveniences, luxurious furnishings, and such striking features as a rotating living room, a domed kitchen, a full engineering workshop, docking facilities for Solo's ship Millennium Falcon as well as a two-cloud-car garage, outdoor observation areas, and a plethora of bedrooms.

The home was swiftly completed, and Solo and Chewbacca threw a festive housewarming party which many galactic figures attended. Solo received many presents from his friends, most notably KT-18, a housekeeping droid to manage the residence. The intervention of claimant to the Imperial throne Trioculus and vengeful Zorba Desilijic Tiure, foes of Solo and his friends, on Bespin immediately after the party made life there untenable, and Solo was forced to abandon the house only hours after the housewarming party concluded. Solo harbored fond hopes of returning to his dream house, but time ultimately found him dwelling on Coruscant, not Bespin.
