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
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.
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
Barf. “I’m a mawg! Half man, half dog. I’m my own best friend.”
Damn right, meatbag!
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.
R2-D2. That spunky little droid is the only reason there is a Skywalker Saga!
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.
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.
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…
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’m not very well versed in the lore, but didn’t he basically follow Plagueis’s plan?
My namesake doesn’t last terribly long…
