Author	Topic: What is the most evil act in all of Star Wars?
DarthUr Registered: Oct '08	Date Posted: 10/18/08 6:57pm Subject: RE: What is the most evil act in all of Star Wars?
	Once you start talking about the afterlife -- remember, a place where most beings lose their individual identities completely and become "one with the Force" -- our assumptions of what justice and vengeance and such mean really just are impossible to apply. It's easy to say things like "A thousand years of purgatory for every dead person!" but from a perspective outside the universe where all people are just manifestations of the same spiritual energy, who's to say what does make sense? Keep in mind that the religion we're borrowing terms like "purgatory" and "hell" from doesn't actually believe being in purgatory is "justice" for sin, believes that no sin can be "paid off" without eternal torment, and therefore everyone in heaven doesn't actually deserve to be there at all but was forgiven by God.

	I'd have to say it's somewhere between blowing up Alderaan and the Krytos virus. Grievous and his tendency to open fire on civilian targets first and foremost has to be somewhere up there too. I don't count Vader killing the children because at that point I felt the movie was so bad and off-course that I just removed it from my mental list of what I consider to be Star Wars >_>

WMD is easier to say that Super Weapon and we all know what I mean. It was a joke, lol. For some reason, I seem to get the cold shoulder from everyone here. Anyways, given Luke "Moral Compass Pointed North" Skywalker held great influence in the NR political and social strata, I doubt it. Though when Borsk became president, you have a point.

	The Cloning of Jorus C'baoth. He was insane to begin with. Why did they clone him? WHY? And who was it that ordered him to be cloned, I wonder? -----signature----- Who is Kyle Katarn? Okay, picture a god. Now imagine that god has a god. Now imagine someone beat that god up. That person is Kyle Katarn. He's so awesome, there's really no way for me to accurately put into words just how awesome he is. --YodaKenobi

	When you blow a planet up in the debut of Star Wars I don't know where you can really go from there in terms of amping up the evil. Maybe torture a whole planet and then blow it up..? Has a Sith lord ever tortured a whole planet? -----signature----- "Head of State, a Sith is just a Jedi who's gone off his meds."-Natasi Daala

	Enh, maybe Malachor V. Being crushed to death by gravity has the potential for longer, more lingering deaths (at least for those in sturdy ships) than being instantly vaporized on Alderaan. It's even possible some people survived the crushing of their ships only to die of starvation or thirst inside, or managed to crawl out onto the surface of the planet to die in the noxious atmosphere.

Maybe torture a whole planet and then blow it up..? Has a Sith lord ever tortured a whole planet? I guess it depends on how Nihilius kills people with his "Force Consume" thingy. If it's a long, drawn out process, then he tortured a whole planet before killing them... -----signature----- Hobbes: You sure know a lot about rocks Calvin: You bet.

	darth malak remorselessly bombing worlds into oblivion (planets with his troops garrisoned there) taking jedi hostage to use their power to heal his wounds, Mandalore eradicating entire civilizations for no reason. Darth nihilus eating Katarr for lunch, along with enslaving the crew of the ravager and draining their life essence to fuel himself. Along with kreia trying to destroy the force. would that not kill every living thing? aside from that i'd like to note that so called "Heroes" of the sar wars universe have and will probably kill hundreds, if not thousands. Kind of interesting to think about. -----signature----- proud KOTOR and legacy era fan. Revan fanboy Kreia: "Revan was power. it was like staring into the heart of the force"

	Kyp Durron blowing up planets with the Sun Crusher for no apparent reason other than vengeance, and then not getting punished for it. Luke was just like, "Oh well, that's the dark side for you." -----signature----- "Beef Jerky Time!!!"

	Yeah, actually, Darth Nihilius "eating" entire planets with his horrible Force hunger -- that's got to top the list of gratuitous evil things, in terms of sheer mystical portentousness if nothing else. Then again the Yuuzhan Vong literally eat planets (or have their genetically engineered terraformers eat planets), and they take over whole sentient populations and ritualistically torture them for fun. (Well, for religion, but it comes out to the same thing.) And they do it on a galactic scale.
