gffa:SOME INTERESTING FACTS FROM ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT STAR WARS 2017: Which
gffa:SOME INTERESTING FACTS FROM ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT STAR WARS 2017: Which is obviously in that sort of nebulous area where this is potentially canon, but it hasn’t shown up in a story, and the book says some of it is still Legends, so I would treat it cautiously. But it’s some interesting details on what may be considered canon, though, as always, this disclaimer from the back of the book is important:ANAKIN SKYWALKER:- Still potentially fudging whether he was born on Tatooine (and no word on whether Shmi was born on Tatooine or was sent there when Anakin was three), but confirmation that he was 14 when he got his first lightsaber during a trip to Ilum! And I suspect he probably was born on Tatooine, because Ahsoka’s “homeworld” is listed as Shili and Obi-Wan’s “homeworld” is mentioned to be Stewjon here, despite that they both would have grown up on Coruscant.- Shmi was captured by pirates as a young girl and sold into slavery–not believing this one unless it shows up in a story or is confirmed by someone in the Story Group, but it fits REALLY well with my headcanons for her.- Vader eats through a tube in his private chamber, confirmed. Floats in bacta chamber on his Minecraft Castle of Sadness on Mustafar while he meditates, which is part of Sidious’ plan to keep him tied to the dark side. OH ANAKIN THIS IS SO SAD AND TERRIBLE, WHY.OBI-WAN KENOBI:- Another confirmation that the “Stewjon” thing is still in place. SIGH. But, okay.YODA:- I can’t even with that gimer stick.- Yoda’s been training Jedi since he was at least since he was 100 years old, which begs the question of just how his species ages, like, is 100 about the time he would be taking a learner on? Does that mean that his childhood was basically 50-75 years long? It’s an interesting question for what his species’ development is like and how it’s probably not really analogous to humans’.- TRAINED 20,000 JEDI, I can’t even comprehend that, but it’s making me sad for how much he’s lost over the course of his life.AHSOKA TANO:- Her montrals can use echolocation up to 25 meters/82 feet! That’s a really good distance, she’d be AMAZING at hide and seek as a youngling in the Jedi Temple!DEPA BILLABA:- I can’t remember if it was anywhere in canon that Depa was Mace’s Padawan, I think it was probably mentioned in the Kanan: The Last Padawan comic? But it’s also mentioned here–though, no word of Mace’s Master. (I got the impression that Cyslin Myr was a temporary teacher for him, but it was carefully worded to be vague in the Mace Windu: Jedi of the Republic comic.)MISC.:- The Inquisitors are not Sith! While they have the yellow eyes, that seems to be more of a pure dark side thing, rather than specifically a Sith thing. This is why Dooku and Asajj Ventress (though, she never completed her training) don’t have yellow eyes, but Maul and Savage and the Grand Inquisitor do. -- source link
