Discussions EU characters you really dislike

Yay Allston!

Callista, Akanah (sp?). Caedus. (I used to love Jacen; in the Corellian trilogy and HoT (which was about, what, a page?).

 

Starkiller... whatever his real name may be.
I just can't accept his part in Star Wars, because he seems unhumanly strong and unrealistic to me *shrugs*

Natasi Daala is also on the list, she is... such an unsymphatic character. She enslaved people and she murdered people without any remorse. Why she is actually "elected" Chief of State later is beyond me..

 

I'm not well-versed enough in the EU (outside my little bubble, that is) to have much of an enemies list-- and believe me, if I was, it would be SUCH a list-- but:

Vilim Disra, for essentially killing the guy who I like to think of as Space Oscar Wilde (it makes sense inside my head). I mean, I know you're a load of baddies and all, but who does that!?
And Josef Grunger, even though objectively speaking he was doing the whole galaxy a great big favour. Also, I've never known a Josef-with-an-F that I liked.

 

Jagged Fel. Dude's always annoyed me. Not much more to say.

Natasi Daala. Though i'm pretty sure i'm supposed to hate her, as she has no redeeming qualities. A war criminal with an unnatural hatred for the Jedi who somehow became Chief of State. She reminds me of when Lex Luthor became President, in that it was very obvious that person should never have been in that position.

Jaina Solo. And I liked her so much in YJK, but NJO killed the character for me, then we went into DNT *shudders*

Ben Skywalker. This kid...since DNT I haven't liked him, and the way he followed Jacen around in LOTF didn't do anything to improve my opinion of him. I found FOTJ painful to read at times when he was mentioned. He's supposed to be a Jedi Knight, not a love struck teen.

I hate Tahiri as she's been written since the end of NJO.

 

Daala
Rosh Penin
TOR Jedi Council, it should had been muchmore diverse
Skadge awesome charcter with little backstory

 

I don't really dislike any of the characters I know. Maybe it's because I haven't read the LOTF or FOTJ novels, hehe. I'll probably get to them in the near future, so that can change. I'm not anxious, though.

...

Errrm... On second thought, I can't really put up with Corran Horn when written by Stackpole. He's a really really great character when written by anybody else, like, of course, Allston, but in novels like I, Jedi or the Dark Tide duology he's too much of a Mary Sue for me. It bugs me how when Corran argues about something with Luke in these books he ends always being right. Or a misunderstood martyr who chooses to sarifice himself and bear the whole weight of the Galaxy over his poor shoulders.

 

Better hide before Sey finds out

But I sort of agree with you - though I think I, Jedi actually shows Corran both being more flawed and growing more than the X-Wing novels.

 

Jason Solo/Darth Caedus; Reason, he killd Mara, and she is one of my favorite Jedi. The books paint him like a hero as a Jedi, but I think he is very much less. I love Anakin and Jaina. I think Jaina is the star that shines the brightest out of the Solo children.

 

Jag Fel, Fey'lya, Daala, Callista,

Captain Cardboard was my idea to begin with. Been calling him that for years.

 

Can't be with Luke because she no longer could touch the Force and he gave her his heart? Yeah she annoyed me to no end

 

He didn't care she was Force sensitive either. Luke was seriously hurt from how it ended. I wanted to slap her so many times. I find ways to exploit those I hate in humilating ways in fanfics.

Bosky ends up being shaved and dyed in nauseating colors

 

Well...Callista had potential really. They just had to squander it for the SAKE OF DRAMA!! (TM)

As much as I like Mara, I saw the potential in Luke/Callista...until the problems that Addie and Falcon have with it popped up.

 

Like I said potential

Obviously they ruined said potential (in the character herself, not the way she was written).

Then again, I much prefer Mara soooo....

 

Seems Luke calmed her down. But they were still afraid of Mara on some level.

 

Luke calmed her down. Yeah she kind of got mushy and lost her edge. It's a shame too.

 

There are quite a few on my list: K'Kruhk, Cade Skywalker, Saba, Akanah, Kyle Katarn, Daala, Lumiya, Allana, Jacen, Lomi Plo, and Nom Anor.

 

Nom Anor also made my list. He annoyed me to no end.

Master Krell is another in the clone wars. I hated him wanted to do nothing more then throttle him for playing around with the Clone troopers like he did.

Rex had enough guts to put the fight to a stop and they arrested Krell and shot him in the back for treason. I love Rex, he turned into one of my favorites.
