I'm just surprised that a reasonably prominent LOTF character with Force powers hasn't been suggested yet.


We are trying to avoid LOTF characters because that would sort of be stepping onto LOTF's plot.

However, if we really want characters who haven't been suggested yet . . . Brenn Tantor.


Is he even Force Sensitive or rumoured to be such? A quick skim read of Wookie's entry on him doesn't suggest anything like that.

I wonder if this is the right time to reveal him? With the storyline just getting off the ground, and the readers just getting to know the characters, would it be wise just to throw in the ultimate mystery(so far) in the story, so early?

As the astute reader will have noticed by now, Darth Krayt is of course the upstanding last son of the Empire, Kir Kanos.


That is my latest guess as well. I wouldn't put it past Randy and John to sneak something like that in, considering that Crimson Empire III was cancelled but was supposed to have a fight between he and Luke.

And it might finally solve that whole mess about Emperor's Guards and Force Sensitivity.


Yeah, it would be nice to finally get it confirmed. Everything points towards Kanos and the other guards being FS, and yet it's still not canonized.

Being an old Imperial and Palpy-lover, Kir Kanos would just fit so well as Darth Krayt.
But as long as it isn't Hett or a ninja-clone in power armor, i'll be Ok with it.

I actually like the idea of it being Kir Kanos.


But seriously guys, it's obviously Sariss, since she survived because her arm twitched.

Which is, of course, the point. An obscure, non-FS candidate, in response to Sephy's crazy suggestions in response to my silly suggestion.

My vote is still for A'Sharad Hett, with Brakiss as an outside chance.

Then how abou this: Krayt is Jacen's body, but with Threepio's malfunctioning behaviour core instead of a brain. That's why he is dying -he needs an oil bath. But a Krayt dragon ate the Lars' homestead, so now he's royally screwed -unless he can get Cade to turn him in to a real boy.

Threepio has lived in fear of dismembering long enough! It's time to fight back!

He is obviously Durge. Durge could have ended the skywalker 'legacy' many a time, is ancient,he fought for the sith before and even spent a while as the glove of Darth Vader (but thats a theory for another time).

As to how he gained force power, hes a Gen'Dai-it would be pretty simple for a species of their nature to splice midi-chlorians into themselves ot to get a mad scientist to do it for him (Durge has a history with mad scientists-see prototypes).

I win happy

And Durge was already nuts, so he couldn't go Force-crazy like the folks on Vjun.

laugh shock Wait...you don't think Kyle heard me say that do you? worried

Obviously, I was suggesting that his body had been overtaken by Vong poisoning BECAUSE his beard had been shaved. Similar to Samson in the Bible, Kyle let slip that the Beard was the source of his power and some conniving Sith babe must have shaved him - but not in his sleep, for Kyle never sleeps. So, the writers would really have to pull a dandy as to how the babe cut his Beard, but that could have led to his...aw, screw it. Kyle could never lose his powers. I am ashamed for even trying... sad

I beg thee forgiveness Lord Katarn! praying

Darth Krayt is Hitler.

They were both bad people who started massive wars. Coincidence? I think not!

Somebody needs to start compiling all the crazy things people say about Kyle Katarn and do one of those "Real Facts about...." things. Kyle Katarn is the GFFA's Chuck Norris!
