Those two stole every scene they were in. They need their own novel, or at least an e-book

I've been vouching for a while for a novel that does for SW Law Enforcement what Medstar did for SW doctors, and when I read about those two I flipped.

That almost makes me want to start reading Legacy of the Force....almost. Not that I have anything against it, mind you.

Panaka was elevated to the status of moff after his glorious contribution to Imperial jurisprudence by creating what is now known as the 'Panaka Doctrine.' The text of which is as follows:

The Panaka Doctrine posted:
The Hutts are gangsters.


This is held to be correct and true by the Imperial judicial system. This was later accompanied by the Olié Corollary, which said that "The entire planet is one big city."

Hutts are gangsters. Some are evil, maybe, but most, I'd imagine, are just criminal businessmen.

Rodians come from a culture that prizes violence and the Hutt, so bounty hunting is something they do well. Bith tend to make good musicians for some reason, too. I don't think there's anything wrong with different species showing predominant characteristics.

In Tempest, we get a Rodian and a Bith as detectives. I want them to get their own novel.




You realize I was being sarcastic with my post about the different species, don't you? Of course, I realize that not all Hutts are evil, not all Rodians are bounty hunters, not all Ithorians are pacifists, and not all Bith are musicians.

Yes, but it was what you were being sarcastic about, exactly, that I guess tripped me up. See, very often people post things like that with the purpose of saying, "How ridiculous that a species be stereotyped! How ridiculous for the movies and the EU to only ever show certain species doing one thing! One profession!" to which my response is, "Maybe not all that ridiculous."
