Ahsoka Sabine

So...may not be a popular opinion...but here it goes....

We know that the Purge happened...and we can assume that there were a lot of dead Mandalorians...and that may also mean that named characters we saw onscreen may be dead as well....

I would like (storywise) that Sabine's parents are dead...killed in the Purge. But Sabine's history being as complicated as it is...working for the Imps and designing the weapon...combined with her coming back the Dark Saber and giving it to Bo-Katan to unify the Clans...has left her in this kind of cultural limbo with other Mandalorians. They warily accept her as one of them....but would not accept her as leader of her Clan. So she steps aside from that and her younger brother Tristan is leader of Clan Wren.

 

Oh I total agree we don’t have that many named Mando’s who we don’t know the fate of. I think Sabine’s parents should definitely hit the bucket

 

I am assuming that Sabine took ownership of Maul's Gauntlet Figher the Nightbrother after Ezra left....but don;t think she would keep the name? What would she have named it??

 

I'd assume she's alive. I would also think she might be involved w/Bo-Katan's search for the darksaber, maybe serving in an intelligence role. I hope at some point during The Mandalorian's future seasons we see her as well.

 

I would prefer her being free of most Mandalorian-centric obligations...yes would like to see her interact with her clan and Bo and others and be involved in any Mandalorian re-unification..but want her free to look for Ezra and not have to worry about who is minding the store back home.

I am also assuming she spent her time on Lothal to protect it for Ezra and may not have been in Mandalorian Space for the Purge.

 

I like the idea, although I don't know how responsible Sabine would/should feel, since that was played out in Rebels already. Then again, Bo-Katan has lost her rule of Mandalore twice.

I didn't think of that! Not sure about a name, but I imagine she'd repaint it, maybe including some tribute to Ezra.

 

It would not be about how Sabine feels....but how other Clan/House leaders...or Mandalorians in general...may feel. Does the good outweigh the bad? To an extant the answer is "yes" but there is still some wariness about the bad.

 

That's true, and may be the more interesting approach in Sabine's prospective involvement with retaking Mandalore this time. I was just thinking about the effect on her personally.

 

We saw the remorse she felt for what she did in creating the weapon in Rebels....so that combined with her search for Ezra I would think she would be OK with Tristan leading the clan...but with him knowing his sister will be there if needed.

 

Exactly what I am talking about with why she would not be accepted by the other Clans/Houses to lead Clan Wren.

 

I agree her inclusion is just too tempting.

Can some remind me how she got the darksaber? I haven't seen the episode in a while and forget. I remember Kanan telling her about it, training her, & her giving it to Bo-Katan but that's it.

 

A Night Sister spirit used the saber while possessing her. Sabine noticed it on the ground afterward.

Incidentally, one of my favorite moments in Rebels is her internal consideration before she decides to take it.

 

Maul kept the darksaber at his hidey-hole on Dathomir. Ezra took notice of it but Maul screeched at him to not take it. Later Ezra and Maul do a darkside magik ritual that awakened the possessive spirits of the Night Sisters. Sabine and Kanan came into Maul's hidey hole and ended up possessed. While Sabine was possessed she took the darksaber to attack Ezra, but Ezra disarmed her (so I guess Ezra Bridger technically has a legitimate claim to the darksaber, lol) Ezra took the darksaber to confront the possessed Kanan and a fight ensued. He dropped it while destroying the altar that powered the Nightsisters' magik. Sabine came after him to retrieve him and took it with her, but later gave it to Kanan for safekeeping.

 

That's coming back to me now. How'd she come to the conclusion Bo-Katan deserved it?

 

Thanks! It'll be interesting to see if she appears in season 3 of The Mandalorian and if that'll make a difference.

 

She actually refrained from killing him (Ursa killed him when he was about to shoot Sabine from behind). It would still count, of course, since Din didn't kill Gideon.

 

Sabine got it on Dathomir from Maul’s lair there

 

It would be awesome, though I'm still at the just-hoping-Sabine-shows-up-and-plays-an-important-role stage.

Move over, Duel of the Fates, it's time for the Duel of the Reluctant Heroes! Sabine (presumably) still has Ezra's lightsaber, too. The weighing of duels is something I've been wondering about, though. My interpretation is (or has been since...Friday) that there may be a kind of recency bias, so Din winning the saber would override Sabine winning it. But that may be too mechanical, and as Gideon said, the story matters, so it would be interesting if the Krownest duel is still in play. That one did have an audience, and both combatants were Mandalorian, so it may be regarded more highly.

 

Sabine with a lightsaber in live action is something I hope they don't let us down on. Ezra's lightsaber has an awesome ignition FX too.

 

Sabine doesn’t have a lightsaber currently
