Simple question. We have:
1. Luke Skywalker
2. Ben Skywalker
3. Leia Solo
4. Han Solo (family by marriage)
5. Jaina Solo
6. Tenel Ka Djo (she is part of the family now through her daughter)
7. Allana Djo (also now known as Amelia Solo)
Which one would you like to see and read more of in the future?
My Opinions:
Luke and Han are getting tiring, and need to start to fade away. Ben and Allana deserve the spotlight, but not yet, they're too young and shouldn't have to grow up fast.
Leia is definitely someone I'd like to see a lot more of while we still can, her Jedi potential has been greatly underused.
Tenel Ka should get more since she's family now, and I like her admirable strength and courage.
But Jaina should continue as the main character that drives the story, even if she's just the temporary placeholder between the generations of Luke/Han and Ben/Allana, don't take the spotlight off of her just yet.
(Jaina and Tenel Ka are the ones I'm most worried about dying in the next big series)

Lowbacca. He's practically extended family..
As for actual family, I want to see more of Jedi Leia. Ben and Allana will have their time in the spotlight in due time(Ben is already more or less in the spotlight, but y'all know what I mean.)

Just wondering, but why not? She certainly hasn't been treated the same as the rest of them, but she is technically family now, so that might change in future books.

I'd like to see some Luke and Ben Skywalker adventure stories as they team up on Jedi missions that don't all involve the fate of the entire galaxy.

Luke and Ben would be first. I also miss Kyp and Corran though I don't think any author is ever really going to take an interest in them again.

Surviving when? Those characters are all alive in the post-LotF era, but in the present day timeline they're all presumably dead. It's kind of like Revan, or Villie, or Zannah - their stories are not yet finished in the sense that we've never seen the end of them, but at the same time they're in the past.
So to answer your question, in the post-LotF Legacy prequel stories, Leia, Jaina, and Ben. In the present day, Cade, Nat, and presumably Marasiah Fel and Roan Fel.

Allana. All the others have been spoiled by the recent novels - and in the case of Han&Leia, recent series. So she is the only one of them that I am even a little interested of reading more about.

Here's mine (IN ORDER)
-1- Han Solo (family by marriage)
-2-. Luke Skywalker
-3-. Leia Solo
-4- Ben Skywalker
-5- Jaina Solo
-6- Tenel Ka Djo (she is part of the family now through her daughter)
-7- Allana Djo (also now known as Amelia Solo)
--Ever since Leia became a Jedi Knight she's been a pleasure for me to read. I remember it was sooo painful for me to read her chapters back in Jedi Academy & Thrawn books etc etc..
--Han- Well since i love his Co-Pilot & her bad to the bone jedi skills, Han is also grown on me bigtime since Leia stepped it up... They both reallly earned my respects in teh Legacy series. They are now my favorites.. SO i'm STOKED about the new book about the Falcon coming out..
-----Who want's to bet that they pick up Lando right before they leave? LOL
--Ben is somewhat cool. I think i keep mistaking him for the youngest Solo boy..BUt i really like the character he will be because of his GAG training & detective skills...+ i like the way that he make shis pop so proud because he's a poster boy jedi with his compassion etc. I hope he hooks up w/ Tahiri. Is that possible? Maybe down the road then...
-Tennal Ka- Is she interesting with Jacen not around? I dunno.. I'd maybe liike a reunion of the Young KNights with Lowie,Zekk & Her majesty of course, but she's soo stiff & that's kinda boring.. We need to see her do something exciting on Hapes already..
-Allana, Lets see what direction the 1st Great grandchild of Anakin Skywalker goes.. I'm thinking she will be--
-- Very classy(mom),,very powerful/tough grandma Dathomir-Jo,,,very slick & a sideways lopsided grin to go with it  So a combination of Solo charm scoundral & Hapes class combined.. A interesting jedi indeed..
---Luke is still my favorite HANDS DOWN. & He will get his regardless. So i dont neeed to list him..
---I still wanna dot both of Troy Dennings eyes for pulling that cheesy crap on us about Luke dying in his Stealth X cause of Jaina.. I was irrate & had to saty up till 5 am on a work night....Sick day!! woot!!

I would really like to see more of Ben Skywalker. It won't happen this way, but I would actually like to see him be apprenticed to Leia and have them fly around with Han in the Falcon, doing good things here and there whenever trouble found them.
I kind of liked Han and Leia's nomadic type approach in LoTF. They didn't worry about loyalty to a certain cause, they worried about loyalty to what was right despite being from both the Confederation and GA. Ben seems like he will be a slightly different type of Jedi....relying on problem solving skills first, the force second. This style would fit in well with the Falcon.

I'm only interested in stories about Luke and Cade & Kol. I can't stand the NJO generation & while I like Ben I dont want ANY stories about him.

None. These characters bore me to tears.
Had you included Cade, I´d-a said Cade. Why didn't you include Cade?

Kol, Nat and Morrigan. But only if they're written by the folks at Darkhorse. Or Jan and John need to be standing over the shoulder of the author writing these characters to prevent them from being as kriffed up as the previous generations of Skywalkers.
Ben and Luke. Just Ben and Luke. No Han, Leia, Jaina or Alana (or whatever her name is). And everything depends entirely on the author. I rather not see a Ben/Luke novel than see certain authors get their hands on them again.
I wouldn't say no to a stand-alone novel or two that pre dates the NJO/LotF era. But everything depends entirely on the choice of author(s).

Jacen Solo. I'm praying to God that his death gets retconned out.
