What exactly is giving you the impression this is going to have anything to do with the Exile? If she appears in KOTOR, it's going to be as part of the Revanchists and with some kind of interaction with Zayne, so there's no reason for her to be alone. There is nothing about "Lone female Jedi" which summons images of the Exile in the KOTOR comic. It would be a pretty meaningless hint from Randy. If Randy said "Lone male soldier" would the immediate response be "OMG, Gallandro is going to appear in one of the Clone Wars Adventures!"?

And if you think Randy's going to give you a new series/miniseries of the Exile wandering aimlessly around before/after KOTOR II . . . what? Really? Because that sounds nothing like Randy Stradley.

Really, I have no idea where this speculation is coming from. Think for a second not about what would be OMG KEWL, but what Dark Horse might actually put out.

I personally hope it's another Nomi Sunrider thing. She's probably my favorite female Jedi, ever.

I want more elaboration on the awesomeness of Nomi, ala:

?Beldorion[src]

Millennia after their deaths, both Thon and Nomi continued to be classed as among the most powerful Jedi Masters of all time; indeed, the Hutt Jedi Beldorion seemed to believe that the pair, along with Grand Master Yoda, to have had unparalleled skill in the light side of the Force.

I would definitely suspect that our Lone Female Jedi will appear within one of Dark Horse's already-existing series. And while I don't see such a story arc as impossible in any of the series, I would think that the easiest and most likely place to insert such an arc would be within Dark Times.

Interestingly, Googling "Leia Skywalker" shows 81200 hits. Not as many as "Leia Organa" (334000) or "Leia Solo" (112000), but still a surprising amount for a (Freudian) typo.

That's Leia, sadly.

Sadly? That's the coolest image of Leia I've seen in years. They really need to give Terese Nielsen's art more publicity. She does great work.




And I'm with Havac on the confusion as to where all this Exile speculation is coming from. Dark Horse seems to have the KOTOR period pretty well covered with Zayne and his merry band of friends.


The suggestion that has tickled me the most in this thread is Noirah Na. Always liked that kid. Hope she ends up okay. And it would fall in well with Dark Times' jumping from focus to focus and her seeming reluctance to give up the ways of the Jedi until Hudorra took her lightsaber and threw it in the trash.

Don't get too excited -- the book (assuming it actually happens) is in the early, EARLY planning stages at this point. I just wanted to tease you because I know how you love to speculate. Have fun, but don't get too invested in any of the ideas you come up with.

So far, though, none of the guesses are in the ballpark.


The ideas he referenced were:
Jaina Solo, Mandalorian Jedi.
The Exile
Shaak Ti post-ROTS
The Dark Woman or T'ra Saa
Satele Shan from the Old Republic comic
Mara Jade?
A new Nomi Sunrider comic

So, I'm afraid it won't be about the Exile.^^

When i first looked at the thread title i kind of thought it was something pornographic. Now that i know it isn't i'm not sure if i'm disapointed anyway, it's probably going to be a'soka (sp?)

Do you mean me?^^

While that might be nice, I'm rather convinced she is either dead or a nice conversation piece in one of Palpatine's dining rooms...

Tom Taylor teased something on his website a while ago that I'd forgotten about until just now:

Speaking of unofficial, I’ve just handed in a script for another Star Wars project and it looks like Randy Stradley (fast becoming my favourite guy) may have something else he wants me to write.

With the characters above out of the lottery, and the delay/cancellation of Blood Oath:
Tenel Ka?

I'm calling it right now. Luke fakes his death and gets a gender reassignment to avoid Daala's exile and starts calling himself Morrigan.
