Lit Timeline List of Legends works that can still reasonably fit into canon

How do i update my original post? Or do I make a new post with the updated list including Ghost Prison?

 

I'd say the latter. Just a suggestion, of course

 

updated list (spoilered for size)

Spoiler

Dawn of the Jedi: Into the Void
Dawn of the Jedi: Force Storm
Dawn of the Jedi: Prisoner of Bogan
Dawn of the Jedi: Force War

Since the Dawn of the Jedi works feature the group known as Je'daii (I pronounce it like Hawaii despite what John Ostrander and Jan Duursema said on the Dark Horse forums), I consider this a separate group from the Jedi that may have really originated on Ahch-To as seen in TFA.

The Old Republic: Threat of Peace
The Old Republic: Deceived
The Old Republic: Fatal Alliance
The Old Republic PC game
The Old Republic: The Lost Suns
The Old Republic: Annihilation
Lost Tribe of the Sith: Spiral

Fun fact, if we had still had one Canon, and Snoke were indeed the Prime Jedi depicted on Ahch To as some had theorized, he would have fit near perfectly as a revived/surviving Dark Sided Master Rajivari. One can just assume that Rajivari took the initial Jedi council to Ahch To and made a primitive temple there after the Force Wars, only to later fall and splinter the order yet again, keeping the entire ancient history still canon. Jed'aii still preceded the Jedi, with the rest of the Old Republic era continuing as is all the way through to the Ruusan Reformation.


Not saying this is in any way even remotely true, just that it could be a plausible scenario if the two canons were still one, and a "Snoke theory" I don't think I've ever seen anyone propose yet.

Spoiler

Rajivari died on Tython. I'm guessing the Prime Jedi is Garon Jard with a shaved head, who I will assume led the Jedi to Ahch-to and built the temple there. The Jedi probably just pretended Rajivari never happened considering what he did.

 

Sidv88- thanks for the work you did on this list. Exactly what I was looking for as I am getting back into Star Wars!

 

Sidv88 have you thought about adding in the canon portions to this timeline? I'm on to the Lost Tribe of the Sith books and want to see if I can work in the canon.

 

No, I haven't thought about that. One can easily look up http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Timeline_of_canon_media and do it themselves.

 

Thanks! Great way to start off the new year-

 

Almost completely forgot about this.

 

edited: wrong thread

 

For me, many of the old comics, Shadows of the Empire, X-Wing comics/books (some at least) and Shadows of Mindor can all still fit pretty well into canon. I tend to ignore the Forces of Destiny bit with Boussh. And if we assume Luke's sabre was incapacitated, then Moving Target can fit in straight after Shadows of the Empire with little trouble. The Haynes Rebel Starfighters book also has a neat shout out or two to Empire at War, as well.

 

I have the Shadows of the Empire game on the list. X-Wing books and Mindor can't really fit with the Battle of Jakku and all that though, with no mention of Leia and Han being married or Ben being born.

 

Has this been talked about (In lite of some rumors of KOTOR remakes/re-imaginings) how much of the ANCIENT PAST can we logically recanozie.

For example I think maaaaybe KOTOR 1 could brought in, (I don't think KOTOR really mentions anything about Malachor so their is that) and maaaaybe most of Tales of the Jedi could be brought in too.

Rise of Skywalker brought back the names Sadow and Revan plus Korriban is a name again...So there's that.

 

Pretty sure all those works are on my list. Its higher up this page if you missed it, spoilered for size

Read it thank you.

Yes...More or less, most of the ancient past (I would say more Tales of the Jedi than Dawn of the Jedi though noting from what I see completely contradicts Dawn) strangely could be wholesaled into the canon.

Granted it might be naive thinking (Then again there are rumors of a KOTOR re-imagining but again only rumors)

Personally I think Tales and KOTOR could be more or less restored back into canon.

However I could see the MMO TOR being cut and replaced instead with something new. But that's just my thinking.

 

Actually, Shadows of Mindor fits fairly well if we assume it is six months or less after Endor - although I still largely treat Endor to Jakku as more like two or even three years (headcanon), thus far.

 

I don't know where else to put this but here's everything i could find on all old republic canon.

 

I feel like Jedi Academy is a stretch. We see dozens of jedi plus several masters when Luke is running the academy. And this is before Kylo even comes to the academy, so there is probably a lot more by that time. Kylo and just a handful of students wiping all these jedi out, including several masters, seems implausible. Luke is also seen sending some of these jedi on missions, so wouldn't it be pretty likely some survived? Yet in the sequel trilogy they appear to be all gone, besides Luke. In addition, the game is also called "Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy." Yeah, it isn't called "Jedi Knight III", but it's clearly part of the Jedi Knight series and those games don't really fit either. I think it should be removed from the list.

 

Gadgets and Gear isn't canon, nor are any other RPG sourcebook, from what I understand.

 

I think Wookieepedians read too much into some of Matt Martin's tweets:


"There are always concessions made for the sake of gameplay but it's probably about as close to canon as you could get? If that makes any sense. I'd say that about any FFG title released in recent years."


"I wouldn’t consider any of them completely canon. Like I said, there are considerations made for gameplay."


"There isn't a black and white answer for this question. I know that's what Wook would want, but there just isn't. I, personally, think it's safe to use stuff like your examples for Wook but that's just my opinion."

https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Forum:SH:FFG_canonicity_question

Based on

"it's probably about as close to canon as you could get? If that makes any sense. I'd say that about any FFG title released in recent years."
"I, personally, think it's safe to use stuff like your examples for Wook but that's just my opinion."

every late period FFG work is treated as canon by Wookieepedia,

with:

"I wouldn’t consider any of them completely canon."

being ignored.

 

If you read the Rise of Kylo Ren comic

Spoiler

The Jedi were taken out in an explosion, that Kylo didn't even cause. It's entirely plausible a whole bunch of Jedi Masters were in there.

However, that same comic also states that Luke is the last of the Jedi, so it does seem Jedi Academy won't fit anymore.

 

I'm pretty sure I dropped the Marvel comics due to them hanging out in Yavin for far longer than the day they did in Canon after ANH. Also, fitting them in would put in multiple Valances etc.

Luke made his boast to the Knights of Ren of being the last Jedi a few years before 28 ABY actually, as even within the Rise of Kylo Ren comic the first meeting with the KoR was a flashback as of 28 ABY.

 

In Canon, the Rebels are still on Yavin 4 at the end of the Princess Leia miniseries, which seems to take a couple weeks, even though it shows evacuation prep had begun right after the medal ceremony from ANH. Rebel Files leaves the precise timing uncertain. All we know in Canon about when the Rebels left Yavin 4 is that it was sometime before Doctor Aphra #3 (when the Empire is shown to have occupied a - presumably - otherwise vacated Yavin 4), and that the Executor becomes fully operational/christened/whatever about two weeks after Darth Vader: End of Games, Part VI. Maybe the evacuation took place in stages, leaving a skeleton crew for a while, or maybe some returned to Yavin after the evac.

But yes, multiple Valances would be the price for keeping the old Marvel series: https://boards.theforce.net/threads/the-one-canon.50033067/page-25#post-56294928
