Lit One Hit Wonders: Characters that died too soon (or in the source that introduced them)!

Jude Edivon. We never actually see her die, and she's definitely smart enough to have realized it was time to bail, but she never contacts her friends again and I feel like her being alive would blunt Ciena's character arc a lot. Lost Stars just needs a sequel in general.

 

Connus Trell and Oro Dassyne. The former is more out of having an additional "corrupt political" figure for Palpatine to bounce off of like Orn Free Taa, he could also provide a bit of background into the many criminal syndicates given protection by the Empire in exchange for services required for "Imperial Matters". While the latter is for the Separatists cause to have another recurring player on the table; Oro had the potential to be a darkly comedic general for the Republic forces to encounter in a arc or two before going out the way he did in the 03 cartoon.

 

The female Jedi Twins Tiplee and Tiplar from the Clone Wars Season 6X1, one of whom was killed right after being introduced. It would have been interesting to see them in other media. Perhaps in a live action Clone Wars series? Or extensions of the CGI or 2-D ones......

Edit, sorry didn't see this was talking about comics, books and EU and literature.

 

Yord, Jecki, Sol and Indara. At least until we get those novels next year.

 

hope they don't cancel those novels, too...

 

Shah-Gee from Clone Wars 2-D Microseries.


I'd like to see his backstory.

Such a waste.

 

It would have been great to see what mysteries they solved.

 

ROTF! Thanks, that was funny.

Thanks for replying, because there's another obvious one: Kit Fisto's Padawan in the The Clone Wars Episode the Lair of General Grievous. Like Shah, he too was killed by the four-armed asthmatic one.

 

I would love a silly cameo of Sha-gi with a bunch of younglings that look like riffs on the Scooby gang.

 

What speices would Scooby be?

I would like to of heard more about Old republic jedi master Ven Zallow

 

Major Tierce was a one hit wonder, i don't think his character would have much of a use after Hand of Thrawn but he was really engaging as an antagonist in those two books, also i like the weird plot twist he has, being a clone of an Emperor's Guard is an unique origin if i ever saw one, i like the dynamic he had with Moff Disra, i think overall the characters of Hand of Thrawn tend to be overlooked by fans but they are the same breed of awesome Zahn characters as we had in the trilogy.

 

Agree. IMO, Vengeance cell is still the best team of (relatively) low-rank Imperials, with them being efficient and dangerous opponents for heroes, while also having a charm of Ocean's Eleven-like team.

 

Empatojayos Brand.

finally killed Palpatine in DE II and died at the same time.

I always thought it was interesting how the one to kill Palpatine’s old clone was Han Solo with a blaster. From Greedo to Palpatine. That’s a power-up for sure.

 

We know that the true death of the Emperor was not Empire's End... but rather Mysteries of the Sith when Mara purged Kyle of his spirit and prevented Emperor Katarn... surrendering to Kyle, Mara allowed Kyle to all by himself extinguish his posessive spirit within him. Kyle ate him for breakfast... and lived!

 

Kyle was not possessed by Palpatine, and also Mysteries of the Sith is likely before Empire's End as the Rebellion is depicted as heavily on the backfoot.

 

I know...
