THE ANCIENT JEDI

170,000 years ago, in the Vordarian Beltway Galaxy (called “Rutanimus” in Civian), 850 trillion light years from our Milky Way Galaxy, the events of the Star Wars Trilogies took place, but 100,000 years before this, the Sith remained hidden on their planet Korriban, the Rodar Wizards performed their magic on Perdonis, and the Galactic Republic was not nearly as powerful in the Galaxy as it was in the days of the Star Wars Trilogies.

The Galactic Republic started with only a handful of planets under its first Supreme Chancellor, Merk Quanto. Coruscant was at the center, with the new Galactic Senate. The Dai Nogas, the magical warriors of the Civian home world Ophuchi, protected the new Galactic Republic. The Whills started keeping Galactic History on Grentarik, their home planet. Granicus, the home world of the Gran, was made home to the new Galactic Republic Supreme Court. Other Core Worlds of the early Galactic Republic included Alderaan, Chandrilla, Corellia, Duro, Kinyen, and Malastare.

75,000 years after the formation of the Galactic Republic under the first Supreme Chancellor, Merk Quanto, the Sith were discovered on their home world, Korriban, by the millennia old Galactic Republic. (This was about 25,000 years before Episode 1.) The Sith were a primitive species, but had a powerful secret form of magic and religion. They had existed peacefully for centuries, undiscovered. Unfortunately, it was shortly after their discovery and the founding of the Jedi Order that an imbalance was created.

Kaja Sinis was a blue haired, blue eyed Civian with a deep voice, born on Coruscant 25,000 years before Episode 1: The Phantom Menace. He was the first Jedi and founder of the Order of Jedi Bendu Knights. The term Jedi meant “light bringer” in the Civian language. Sinis created the techniques allowing one to use the Force. He discovered two sides of the Force, the good side (called “Ashla” in Civian) and the dark side (called “Bogan” in Civian). His new Jedi Order replaced the Dai Nogas of Ophuchi, which only grasped the good side, and had a relatively weak grasp of the Force compared to Kaja Sinis. In the early years, it was the duty of a Jedi to study both the Ashla and the Bogan, but serve the Ashla or good side.

His first student or padawan was Shintor Beerus, a Twi’lek Sinis discovered on the planet Nefarion. The Jedi Academy on Coruscant grew large under the two and eventually the Civian home world, Ophuchi, was transformed into the Jedi stronghold, and the Dai Nogas integrated themselves into the new Jedi Order. Later, the Whill Shamans of Grentarik were integrated into the new Jedi Order as well. Kaja Sinis, aided by the Jedi scientist, Cobar Jacash, created the first light saber, as well as the first Jedi Holocron, a small hand-held cube which contained Jedi history. Cobar Jacash was a Bomewright from Sullust. The Bomewrights were frequently known as Sullustans by outsiders. Future Jedi light saber scientists tended to be Bomewrights as well.

Kaja Sinis built his light saber by finding a crystal on a secret planet to create the blade of light. Every Jedi followed in this path. They went to this secret planet and had to find either a green, blue or purple crystal in order to create their light saber. Whether this secret planet is identical with Vronioc, the most Force-sensitive planet in the Galaxy, of the Jedi stronghold planet, Ophuchi, is not known. After finding their crystal, Jedi constructed their own light sabers, often with the assistance of a Bomewright Jedi scientist. According to the Expanded Universe, the secret planet is actually Ilum. (Since Lucas won’t say, and the Expanded Universe exists to fill in the spaces Lucas does not consider integral to the background of the Star Wars Saga, it can be taken as literal according to each fan’s desire.)

After training Beerus, Sinis trained many padawans, including Oton Grent, Issius Pallon, Quotar Forsh and Whel Baroc. Beerus trained many padawans as well, including Xis Latos, Don Votal, Eegis Plati and Yag Malore. The Jedi supported the Peace established by the Republic. Sadly, in Sinis’ lifetime, the Dark Jedi were created by a rogue Jedi named Zuti Frugan. Zuti Frugan changed his name to Zuti Darklighter, founding the infamous Darklighter clan.

Dark Jedi could act as free agents, choosing any color of light saber they could create and even training themselves without a master. These Dark Jedi studied both sides of the Force, but emphasized the dark side or the Bogan. With the rebellion of Zuti Darklighter and others, the Jedi Council under Kaja Sinis saw that an imbalance had been created, so the practice of studying the dark side was disbanded. Nonetheless, the Dark Jedi were already flourishing. Dark Jedi were teaming up with Sith pirates to conquer the Sith, and utilize their magic to evil, power mongering ends.

The Sith were conquered by Dark Jedi who adopted their form of magic in Sinis’ lifetime. These Jedi called themselves Sith Lords. The first known Dark Lord of the Sith (Dark Jedi to conquer Sith) of recorded history was Darth Scarz. He is not to be confused with Darth Ghore, the first known Sith Monarch. In imitation of the Jedi Holocron, the Sith made their own holocron, the Sith Holocron. The tension between the two sides eventually came to a head at the Battle of Omicras, the first major conflict between the Sith and Jedi. Nonetheless, the Sith Lords remained and continued to grow the Sith Order including non-Sith species in their Order, as one Sith Dynasty succeeded another.

Kaja Sinis slew 3 Sith Lords and 17 Dark Jedi in his life due to their attacks on the Jedi. The 3 Sith Lords were Darth Mirage, Darth Sinistar and Darth Horrar. The 17 Dark Jedi were discovered and slain in the Dungstaka Uprising on the planet Natisular. Kaja Sinis was eventually assassinated at the ripe age of 187 under the orders of Prince Ganchok Krancore of Utarius, by a bounty hunter named Harbontin Dumis. Dumis slew Sinis by means of a fireball explosion, from which the tradition of burning a Jedi in a funeral pyre originated. After Sinis’ death, Beerus took over the Jedi Order. He recorded a prophecy made to him by Kaja Sinis in the Jedi Holocron. It regarded the One who would bring Balance to the Force. Shintor Beerus survived to the age of 174. His Jedi Holocron was lost and not rediscovered for several millennia.

Several millennia of strife between Jedi and Sith ensued. 5,000 years before The Phantom Menace, a Dark Jedi named Jeer Dexton created the Order of the Dark Jedi, who refused the discipline of the Sith. The Sith continued as well, fighting against the Republic in the Great Hyperspace War. They were led at that time primarily by Naga Sadow, successor to the great iron-fisted Marka Ragnos, who had ruled the Sith for 100 years.

4,000 years before The Phantom Menace, the Sith War occurred. The Sith were ruled by Darth Revan, succeeded by his apprentice, Darth Malak. Darth Revan was slain by a Force avalanche. Darth Malak was seriously injured in a duel with Jedi Knight Kylo Spartos, which is why Darth Malak lost most of his jaw. Other great Sith arose at this time, such as Darth Sion, Darth Traya, Darth Nihilus, Darth Bandon, and Exar Kun.

Other important Sith of note in Sith History are Darth Tantalon and Darth Cladar of Ropetru. The legendary Darth Tantalon was one of the ten most powerful Sith in regards to Force ability. He was slain by a Force fireball. Darth Cladar was the physically strongest Sith ever. Darth Kanamite was the dumbest Sith ever and lasted only a few days as a Sith. He was a short-lived apprentice in the Sith Order of Darth Bane. Kanamite died on his first mission. In addition to the powerful Sith already mentioned, the most powerful Sith include such notables as Darth Vak, Darth Slane, Darth Vicrone, Darth Secretus, and Darth Thrax.

While the dark side of the Force created many great warriors, the light side of the Force did as well. 2,000 years before The Phantom Menace, the most formidable light saber fighter before Yoda lived, the amazing Yendar Platis. Yendar Platis had six arms and could use six light sabers at a time. Another fascinating Jedi was the renowned Jedi scientist Crutus Penari. Penari succeeded in creating a yellow-bladed light saber, which could actually slice through any other light saber. This light saber was called the Penari light saber. The Jedi Council considered the light saber too dangerous and it was destroyed with its blueprints. The yellow crystal used to make it was made illegal. Of even greater note than either Yendar Platis or Crutus Penari was the beautiful Ce Ce Denowai from the planet Rotteron. She had a higher midichlorian count than any female Jedi ever. Of course, the Jedi had to have their clumsier, less intelligent Jedi. The biggest buffoon of the Jedi was Zistar Flamgag.

THE SITH ORDER OF DARTH BANE

Eventually came the Dynatic Sith Dynasty, about 1,000 years before The Phantom Menace. Sith Lord Qordis (whose Sith name was Darth Sinistog) trained Darth Bane in the arts of the Sith. Darth Bane never completed his training and rejected his master, but managed to gain possession of the Sith Holocron and his own student, Darth Riven. The Sith had weak control over the Galaxy at this time, and Darth Bane foresaw the fall of Sith tyranny and despotism. He slew Darth Riven, not finding her to be a worthy successor.

All Sith were wiped out at the Battle of Gradon. Only Darth Bane survived, as well as his apprentice to be, a young woman named Ishto Papar from the planet Nibon. Ishto Papar left Darth Bane to become the fabled Dark Woman, who fled Darth Bane and returned to the light side of the Force in hiding. This is not the Dark Woman who lived to train Aurra Sing the Herclu, but was her mentor, as she had found a way to make herself virtually immortal.

Darth Bane took on a new apprentice, whom he dubbed Darth Seer, a Dynat from planet Dynaticus. This would begin the secret Dynatic Sith Dynasty. With Darth Seer, he hid upon Coruscant, where the Sith were to remain for several generations. Darth Bane established a Rule of Two, only one master and one apprentice at a time, the sole inheritors of the Dynatic Sith Dynasty.

Upon his death of old age, Darth Seer established a formalized Code for the Sith Order, recruiting the next Sith, Darth Mongerer, who followed his code. One rule was of course, the Rule of Two. Another was that a Sith apprentice needed to construct his own light saber and it had to be red-bladed. The secret to making a red-bladed Sith light saber was to be found in the Sith Holocron. The Sith Holocron was encrypted by a password code containing a long series of Sith words. Darth Seer further insisted the title “Darth” which merely meant “shadow warrior” be made equivalent with the title “Lord” in honor of Darth Bane. Before this, the title Darth was similar to Mister, and was considered a rude and unacceptable title to a Sith with the rank of Lord. This was to remind all future Sith that being a Sith Lord meant always being a warrior.

Darth Seer died of old age, succeeded by his apprentice. Darth Mongerer faithfully continued the Order of the Sith in hiding on Coruscant. A Jedi dueled and beheaded Darth Mongerer, but Mongerer hid the fact that he was a Sith and his apprentice succeeded him as Sith Master. Around this time, Yoda D’Kana the Whill was born on Grentarik, the World of Records. Yoda’s father, Syville Demetris D’Kana, allowed his son to be taken in by the Jedi Order at a young age. Yoda trained under Bontu Sitmus the orange Whill. Bontu Sitmus trained under Losho Yik the Whill as a youngling, and under Tracktius Mutheon as an apprentice. Bontu Sitmus became a legend in his own lifetime by slaying 7 Dark Jedi at a single time, all by himself.

Two centuries into the Dynatic Sith Dynasty, the Sith Lord Darth Gilgon discovered Darth Augor on the planet Nefeyi. The young Darth Augor grew to become one of the greatest Sith of all time. Darth Gilgon was slain with a Force tornado, making Darth Augor the Master. Darth Augor slew dozens of Jedi, but was in turn ambushed and slain by 17 Jedi, including the young Yoda. Darth Augor concealed his identity as a Sith and the Sith Order continued undetected.

When Yoda was 177, the Jedi Holocron kept by Shintor Beerus was rediscovered, prophesying the One who would bring Balance to the Force. Yoda was a more formidable Jedi than Evins Croslod and even Aenon Jurtis, the most formidable Jedi before his time. Many considered Yoda to be the fulfillment of the prophecy, but upon examining the Holocron, Yoda could not be the One, for the One would be born of a virgin mother.

Yoda rose through the ranks, eventually becoming a member of the Jedi Council under Lady Lidia Frotgus. Under her, the Jedi Holocron kept by Shintor Beerus was rediscovered. Yoda lived during the rise of the most powerful Dark Jedi ever (with the exception of the Sith). This Dark Jedi was Norius Havok of Eegius, who lived 150 years before the events of The Phantom Menace. The second most powerful Dark Jedi was named Fluvian Destu, and the most powerful female Dark Jedi was named Sashees Vrtrik.

Unnoticed to the Jedi, one Sith succeeded another on Coruscant, eventually leading up to Darth Frordon of Dresdane. On Dresdane, Frordon set up a duel between his apprentice Baltimort and Baltimort’s potential replacement, Imperius. Baltimort and Imperius were each Baraosi, both from the planet Bothiwite. Since Imperius had a collection of kyber crystals, but was less experienced than Baltimort, Imperius and Baltimort teamed up against Frordon. Baltimort became Imperius’ master, until Imperius slew Baltimort by an ever-growing collection of kyber crystals and heightened skill. Imperius slew Baltimort by means of a Force earthquake.

DARTH PLAGUEIS THE WISE

Imperius was eventually slain by a Dark Jedi called Plagueis the Wise, a former Jedi and master of the techniques of the Rodar Wizards of Perdonis. Plagueis was a half breed from Tindell 5, the fifth planet in the Tindell Star System, half human and half Disonian. Plagueis actually tracked Imperius down with his own kyber crystal, and basically forced Imperius to teach him the ways of the Sith, before Imperius could find what he deemed a proper successor to succeed him. Imperius had it in his heart to slay Plagueis after training him if he could, or simply accept a more powerful Sith such as Plagueis would successfully slaughter him. Either way, it was an acceptable sacrifice for Imperius. Imperius learned the wickedly regenerating ways of the Rodar Wizards, and Plagueis the self-destructive path of the Sith.

While training on the planet Skaggis, Plagueis sliced off Imperius’ arms, sliced Imperius in half from head to hip, then finished Imperius off with a Force tornado when Imperius was 52 years old. After Plagueis defeated Darth Imperius, Plagueis became a Sith called Darth Plagueis. Soon afterwards, Darth Plagueis apprenticed a young boy from Naboo, Dantius Palpatine. Plagueis paid Palpatine’s parents a large sum of money to not allow Palpatine to be taken by the Jedi for training. Plagueis dubbed the young lad Darth Sidious. Plagueis had several kyber crystals and eventually gave Palpatine one of these kyber crystals.

By means of the kyber crystals in conjunction with Sith magic and Jedi training, Plagueis had discovered a method for transferring the spirit from an old body to a cloned one by manipulating the midichlorians. He was never able to make a clone body he could successfully transfer his spirit into, but was able to remain young longer than a Sith typically could, being that most Sith would age very rapidly due to the destructive nature of the dark side.

The kyber crystals were forged by the Rodar Wizards of Perdonis and scattered throughout the Galaxy, about 100,000 years before the events of The Phantom Menace. Perdonis was a twin planet, which means it was composed of two planets that have collided and merged with each other. Perdonis was located in the Clatock star system near the Fride Beltway. The Rodar Wizards were powerful warlocks who could harness the powers of th Force. They found a way to create crystals that could highly concentrate the power of the dark side. These crystals were reputedly made from crystal ore harvested on the planet Mimban. The Rodar Wizards were greatly feared in their part of the galaxy as the most evil persons alive at that time. They made the Sith look like nuns. The kyber crystals were made so that a dark side Force user could boost their powers greatly by possessing the crystals.

Unbeknownst to Plagueis, Palpatine had found a far more potent kyber crystal than anything Plagueis had. Palpatine located it on the planet Moovis, which he purchased from Ushkar Madcra, a bounty hunter who sold it as junk. This potent kyber crystal made Palpatine too powerful for his master to control. On the planet Skaggis, Palpatine slew Plagueis as he slept. Plagueis never even saw it coming. Like his master, Imperius, before him, Plagueis was slain on Skaggis at 52.

RISE OF THE SITH

Palpatine took on an apprentice named Voltres, calling him Darth Venom, or alternatively Darth Voltres. Darth Voltres, while still an apprentice himself, apprenticed Darth Orcron and possibly others, breaking the Sith Rule of Two. Palpatine found out and sliced Darth Voltres in half, from head to torso, then hunted down and slew Darth Orcron as well. (It is possible one of Voltres’ surviving students trained Asajj Ventress of Rattatak, who claimed to be a Sith warrior when Count Dooku discovered her.)

Undaunted, Palpatine sought out a new apprentice. He found a very young Zabrak on Iridonia named Khameir Sarin. Succeeding Palpatine’s tests, Khameir Sarin began to be known as Darth Maul. Before the Sith revealed their existence to the Jedi, Darth Maul succeeded in slaying 3 Jedi: Barco Trellius, Roro Fergus and Ji-Dis Flar. Darth Maul revealed himself to the Jedi, as shown in The Phantom Menace. The Sith markings made Maul’s identity as a Sith clear to the Jedi.

Some of the Jedi in The Phantom Menace were in fact the most powerful Jedi in history. Not only was Yoda of Grentarik one of the most powerful Jedi ever, but so were some of his colleagues on the Jedi Council including Plo Koon of Dorin, Yarael Poof the Quermian, Even Piell the Lannik and, of course, the amazing Mace Windu. Yarael Poof was trained by Zinkor Dawn and Even Piell was trained by Haccor Topkin.

Mace Windu came from Erberius and was trained by Cloto Nervon on the planet Ophuchi. Mace Windu in turn trained Depa Billaba, Ipto Follers, and his nephew, Usby Thape. Mace Windu fought Dark Jedi Barkius Zok. Let us not forget Master Qui-Gon Jinn and his apprentice, Obi-Wan Kenobi. Qui-Gon Jinn was born on the planet Hargithon, but his parents moved to Racine. The Jedi often went to Racine to find Jedi, and there they found Qui-Gon. Obi-Wan was born on the yellow rocky world of Pilegias. As a very young boy, he was found on the planet Kelchase and given by his parents to the Jedi Order.

RISE OF THE EMPIRE

After the death of Darth Maul, Palpatine immediately sought out three potential apprentices; Sifo Dyas, Detori (Darth Rage), a cyborg Toban from Yetis and Dakkus Vitrich’s Jedi student, Count Jard Dooku of Serreno (Darth Tyranus). Detori grew up as a youth on Sevara, just past Iridonia and was there found by Palpatine for training. Palpatine first approached Sifo Dyas. Palpatine had asked Sifo Dyas to become a Sith, since the Kaminoans were expecting his visit. Sifo Dyas refused and Palpatine slew him by a Force fireball and Force earthquake. Palpatine then approached Detori and Count Dooku, who each accepted the possibility of apprenticeship. Detori, as Darth Rage, was given training prior to Count Dooku, but would have to duel to prove himself against the Dark Jedi. The two were to duel for the position of apprentice, Darth Rage to retain his recently achieved position, Count Dooku to replace him.

Before the duel could be set up, Plo Koon fought Darth Rage in a fierce light saber duel, eventually destroying Darth Rage by a Force avalanche. During the fight, Plo Koon snatched the kyber crystal Darth Rage was wearing from his neck. Before dying, Darth Rage denied being a Sith and claimed to act alone.

Count Dooku became Darth Tyranus, Palpatine’s apprentice, in less than a year after the events of The Phantom Menace. One of his first missions was to order a clone army as Sifo Dyas, who was on his way to Kamino. (Sifo Dyas was an Ogdarian born on the asteroid world of Esiken, and discovered by the Jedi when he moved to Allistare.) Count Dooku had Billigo Hilgobottomager (a Jedi master of disguise and possibly a changeling) pretend to be Sifo Dyas and order an army cloned from the bounty hunter, Jango Fett. Jango Fett had proven himself as the best bounty hunter throughout the Galaxy by always beating the formidable cyborg Montross to a mark. Montross had the benefit of cybergenetic enhancements implanted in him by the Techno Union, so if a non-cyborg such as Jango Fett could always beat Montross to any given mark, nothing better could be expected.

Palpatine and Count Dooku quickly found a Jedi to aid them in their nefarious plans to take over the Galaxy. His name was Visivious Drakarn. Drakarn was born on Gishomire, where his parents gave him over to the Jedi Order. Drakarn was a rebellious student and as punishment at age 17, was sent to Melbius Prime to work for a Jedi charity organization. Drakarn was resentful for this punishment and took the opportunity to get revenge on the Jedi once he was allowed to return to Coruscant at age 20. Recruited by Count Dooku on Coruscant for the task, Drakarn erased the files concerning the existence of Kamino. This act remained unnoticed for years.

Dooku thought he was gaining much power in the dark side, but Palpatine was merely utilizing Count Dooku as a tool. Count Dooku started the Separatist Confederacy, headquartered on the planet Vicodis. As Count Dooku unified the Separatists, Palpatine brought adepts of the dark side into his conspiracy. He made Sly Moore of Umbara his secretary, due to her ability to read minds. He befriended two Jedi during this period, considering which one he would choose to replace Dooku as an apprentice. Their names were Anakin Cleevon Skywalker of Thessius and the little known Vorron Tastras.

Though Palpatine’s relationship with Vorron Tastras remains largely unknown, it is known that he had legions of Dark Side Adepts led by the extremely tall masked General Lettow, and utilized the skill of the Dark Jedi assassin known as Xio Jade, the first “Emperor’s Hand” and aunt of Mara Jade. Xio Jade became the most powerful female Sith of all time.

Though Anakin would always consider Tatooine his home world, he was actually born on Thessius. Thessius was a watery island world Anakin’s mother Shmi Skywalker moved to. Shmi’s first husband, who died long before Anakin was conceived, was Lodon Skywalker. Lodon Skywalker was a direct descendant of Aden Trackus, born 2,700 years before Episode 1. Aden had to go into hiding, and changed his last name to Skywalker, because he liked to pilot ships. Shmi was sold as a slave and taken to Tatooine, but was originally herself from the planet Cardonas. While Palpatine and Dooku were growing in the power of the dark side, Anakin was growing in the good side of the Force. This did not prevent him from negotiations. In fact, the negotiations he had with the rogue Halbertas on the planet Verkig got quite aggressive.

The events depicted in Episode 2: Attack of the Clones transpired. These were followed by the Clone Wars. It was during the infamous Clone Wars that Anakin received his eye scar by a Portris Battle Droid at the Jarkotic Battle on Gorinusk. To enhance the specialization of each type of clone troop category, clones of other individuals besides clones of Jango Fett were included in the new Galactic Military. Eventually, non-cloned humans were allowed to join the Clonetroopers, and the combined forces of clones and non-clones were called Stormtroopers. However, the majority of the Imperial Galactic Military’s troops were still clones. Troops, whether clones or not, were given numeric designations, like TK 421. TK actually was short for Tandis Keplar, which meant “warrior of valor.”

During the Clone Wars, Count Dooku found Asajj Ventress on Rattatak. She claimed to be a Sith warrior and though Count Dooku rejected this claim, he agreed to instruct her and utilize her skills. He found an Omix-patra of planet Kalee on the world of Divon. Dooku trained Grievous in the arts of a Dark Jedi as well, though only to the level of padawan. This Omix-patra was transformed into a cyborg, and soon thereafter became known as General Grievous, the Droid Army Leader. He could wield four light sabers at once, by splitting his two robotic arms into four. General Grievous was kept alive and made into a cyborg by a scientific genius of the Techno Union named Sago Milius on the world of Disicon. General Grievous slew many Jedi, even the great Even Piell in the Battle of Corellia, and Grievous’ super battle droids even succeeded in ambushing Bultar Swan on Kanspa. At the time of Episode 3: Revenge of the Sith, he actually slew the powerful Shaak Ti.

THE NEW EMPIRE

After the Clone Wars, in which Anakin successfully slew Asajj Ventress, the events of Episode 3: Revenge of the Sith occurred. Anakin Skywalker slew Count Dooku early on. Obi-Wan hunted down General Grievous and slew him, making the Separatist leaders worthless to Emperor Palpatine. Palpatine convinced Anakin Skywalker to help slay Mace Windu and become the next Sith apprentice, known as Darth Vader. Vader, in the Sith language, signifies a dreaded tormentor.

Anakin and the clone troops commenced to slaughter the Jedi. Anakin personally slew the Separatist Council on Mustafar, Nebar Foxis and the Jedi younglings in the Jedi Temple on Coruscant, and several other Jedi in the Jedi Temple, including Jedi Master Cin Drallig. Throughout the Galaxy, clone troops slaughtered their Jedi leaders under Emperor Palpatine’s orders. Pablo Jill was slain by his troops on Gedius. Adi Gallia was slain by hers on Eugiinax, Ki-Adi Mundi on Mygeeto, Aayla Secura and Barriss Offee on Felucia, Luminara Unduli on Kashyyyk, Quinlan Vos on Boz Pity, and Plo Koon on Cato Neimodia.

After a violent duel regarding Padme, Obi-Wan left Anakin for dead on the lava planet of Mustafar, but Palpatine revived Anakin, giving him his cyber-genetic suit and possibly placed a chip in Anakin’s suit by which Palpatine held the life of Anakin in his hands. (All the means by which Palpatine held Vader in his power are not known.) Darth Vader made sure Dooku’s surviving minions would soon meet their doom. Visivious Drakarn, Billigo Hilgobottomager and Shatar Hooslun would not survive Palpatine’s purge against Force users.

Chancellor Palpatine declared himself Emperor and reorganized the Senate under his rule, renaming it the Imperial Senate. He legitimized his rule with the aid of the highest court in the Galaxy, the Supreme Tribunal, located on the planet Granicus. The head of the Tribunal was the Consul, Cos Dashit of Alderaan. Dashit decided to cast his vote in favor of making Chancellor Palpatine the Emperor. Other members of the Supreme Tribunal who supported Cos Dashit included Son Hhat of Granicus, Mara Horus of Townowi, Crispin Hoedaak of Aquilae and the obese Hutt, Vantos Coll. All had received their appointment by Chancellor Palpatine, and always ratified whatever he put forth. Ngai Thuc of Ophuchi and the courageous Seig Darklighter of Tatooine were the two judges of the Tribunal to oppose the measure. Seig Darklighter was expected to support the measure, being appointed by Palpatine and a direct descendant of the founder of the Dark Jedi, Zuti Darklighter.

Through Darth Vader and others, Palpatine established the Galactic Empire and executed the Jedi Purge, which began in Revenge of the Sith. Thousands upon thousands of Jedi were massacred. The Order of 10,000 Jedi virtually disappeared. Great Jedi were just memories. Rido Fander, one of the ten greatest Jedi ever, was no more. Chase Hintock, the Bomewright Jedi scientist of Sullust, who aided Anakin in constructing his light saber, was dead. The golden haired, yellow-skinned Jedi of Ord Mantell, Nebar Foxis, was considered the best looking male Jedi of his time. He died valiantly defending the Jedi children on Coruscant. Dethal Vangris, the prettiest Jedi throughout the Galaxy, was gone. Other Force Users were eliminated as well, such as the peaceful Sutrans, the Biotans, and the powerful female Vortari, which took their name in honor of their founder, Lady Vortari.

The only Force Users to survive were those lucky enough to remain in hiding on remote worlds. We know some members of E.T.’s species, which were Sutrans, survived. However, most Force-sensitive individuals were tracked down by Grand Inquisitor Tremayne and were either made to submit their abilities to Emperor Palpatine’s rule or perish. Under Tremayne and a warrior general named Lettow, a dark side elite developed. The dark side warriors who submitted to the Emperor were called the Legions of Lettow. In addition to Darth Vader, a very tight circle of Shiboku (Dark Side Adepts) surrounded the Emperor, none having the level of midichlorians found in even a common Jedi, but all surpassing the Jedi in prowess. The Shiboku Council consisted of General Lettow, Vorron Tastras, Xio Jade, Sly Moore, Mas Amedda, Sate Pestage, and two Royal Guards who were always found at the Emperor’s side.

According to the Expanded Universe, the Emperor’s Dark Side Elite included Nefta, Sa-Di, Executor Sedriss and others. Assassins with Force ability were brought into the fold as well. They were called the “Emperor’s Hands” and included such notables as Mara Jade. Each “Emperor’s Hand” was led to believe they were the sole Emperor’s Hand, giving them great self confidence. Aurra Sing the Herclu supported the Jedi Purge, seeking out her master, the Dark Woman. Ironically, Aurra Sing was slain by a Jedi, Nto Boraj, who did not survive the purge himself.

The Emperor appointed Sate Pestage as his Grand Vizier to control the mundane aspects of the Empire. No one but Sly Moore saw the Emperor without his permission. Emperor Palpatine made Armand Isard his Director of Intelligence and Ved Kennede the Master Royal Guardsman, in charge of training the Royal Guardsmen. Other important Imperial Dignitaries included Janus Greejatus, Kren Blista-Vanee, Sim Aloo and Ars Dangor. The Grand Moffs and the Grand Admirals were appointed in time, of which Grand Moff Tarkin and Grand Admiral Thrawn were the most notable. Dark Prince Xizor was also held in high esteem by the Emperor. Through Xizor’s criminal organization, Black Sun, the Emperor could successfully direct the criminal elements throughout the Galaxy.

THE REBELLION

Many Senators rejected the Emperor and organized the Rebellion. The most notable Senators to oppose the Empire was the birdlike Kesselian, Mir Nash, Bail Organa of Alderaan, Padme Amidala of Naboo, and of course, Mon Mothma of Chandrilla. The Rebels unanimously supported Seig Darklighter of Tatooine as their first leader. He was slain by Darth Vader, and was succeeded by Ngai Thuc of Ophuchi, who led the Rebellion on Townowi. Ngai Thuc was also slain by Vader shortly after Seig’s assassination. The next leader of the Rebellion was Bail Organa, followed by Mon Mothma.

Remaining Jedi, like Mace Windu’s nephew Usby Thape, Kane Starkiller of Townowi, who was stationed on Utapau, his son Clieg Starkiller, Huu Tho of Bastine, and Akira Valor of Townowi gathered a handful of the few remaining Jedi on to Utapau. Due to Clieg’s death at the hands of General Lettow, and the earlier conflict between Obi-Wan and General Grievous on Utapau, the Jedi didn’t want to remain in a place which might attract the Empire. They fled to Aquilae, a world populated by Xamsters, where the Xamsters’ King Kayos and Queen Breha gave them protection.

Aquilae was eventually conquered by Grand Moff Tarkin, since several Xamsters were quick to submit, believing Grand Moff Tarkin fulfilled a prophecy making him their new leader. Kane Starkiller was survived by his son, Deak, who was taken by Akira’s son, Justin Valor, to Tatooine. Deak grew up to be close friends with Luke Skywalker. Justin Valor, and his Wookiee bodyguard, Boma, lived on to defend King Kayos’ children; Prince Oeta, Prince Puck and Princess Zara, as well as the royal family on the planet Ondos.

Seig Darklighter, Kane Starkiller, and Akira Valor were tracked down by Darth Vader and the Legions of Lettow. After Seig Darklighter’s death, Ngai Thuc led the Rebellion from Townowi, where the remaining Jedi besides Obi-Wan and Yoda fled, unfortunately to meet their doom. The fate of Justin Valor, who was never officially a Jedi, is likely to be depicted in the upcoming Star Wars TV Show.

Yoda and Obi-Wan remained in hiding for decades, until the events of Star Wars: The Classic Trilogy. In the final Episode of the Classic Trilogy, Return of the Jedi, Darth Vader killed Palpatine, saving the life of his son, Luke Jacen Skywalker. Darth Vader died, returning to the light side of the Force. The heroes of the Classic Trilogy continued to have their adventures. Han Solo of Corellia married Leia Organa of Alderaan and had three children, Anakin, Jacen, and Jaina. Luke Skywalker of Tatooine married Mara Jade and fathered Ben Skywalker. Chewbacca of Kashyyyk and Lando Calrissian of Zaskus.

Most of the events between Star Wars Episodes have been detailed in the Expanded Universe, but have not been detailed by Lucas himself. According to the Expanded Universe, between Episode 6: Return of the Jedi and Episode 7, Emperor Palpatine was succeeded by his Grand Vizier, Sate Pestage. He was in turn replaced by Director of Intelligence, Ysanne Isard. Grand Admiral Thrawn, a Chiss from Csilla, returned from the Unknown Regions to take over the weakened Empire. Following his assassination, Emperor Palpatine returned to rule in a clone body. His Royal Guardsman, Carnor Jax, arranged for all clone bodies of Emperor Palpatine to be damaged. Carnor Jax was slain by the last faithful Royal Guardsman, Kir Kanos.

Carnor Jax was succeeded by the Imperial Interim Ruling Council, headed by Burr Nolyds. He was assassinated by the Yuuzhan Vong agent Nom Anor, as were the two elected heads after him, first Admiral Banjeer, then General Immodet. Under the direction of Lord Manos, a Devaronian, they eventually elected Xandel Carivus. Carivus, in a foolish sense of pride, declared himself Emperor. Upon his assassination, the Republic was once again restored to its former position, upon the growing threat posed by the Yuuzhan Vong. Leia Organa Solo was now recognized throughout the Galaxy as the undisputed Chief of State.

THE SEQUEL TRILOGY AND THEREAFTER

In Episode 7, the Jedi had been reorganized, but so had the Dark Jedi, led by Shindor of Brontic. These Dark Jedi carried not only purple, blue and green-bladed light sabers, but yellow, orange, white and black-bladed light sabers as well. The Dark Jedi re-created the yellow light saber when they discovered a type of yellow gem had been made illegal in the days of the great Jedi scientist, Crutus Penari.

The Dark Jedi who had survived the Jedi Purge ordered by Emperor Palpatine remained in hiding in scattered units of no more than seven, to ensure an inability to be detected by the Emperor’s Legions of Lettow, which would either slay them, or if the Dark Jedi weren’t considered a considerable risk to the Emperor, allow them to live under the strict command of General Lettow. When Vader slew the Emperor, the Dark Jedi saw him as a hero, and with the knowledge that he sought to make Luke his apprenticed, decided to reorganize in the days of the New Republic. They would make clones of Vader and Luke Skywalker, so Vader’s prophecy that he would rule with Luke as father and son might come true.

The principle hero of the sequel trilogy is Luke’s son, Ben Skywalker. A secondary hero is Anakin Solo, Han Solo and Leia’s son. Due to Luke and Leia’s larger role as Council Heads, they actually had their children train under those who had been trained by them. Hirin Voltkack trained Ben Skywalker. Anakin Solo’s master was Apriles Mondifer. The new Jedi Order, under Luke, now had the potential to grow greatly in numbers beyond the mere 10,000 of the old Jedi Order, as masters could now take on more than one apprentice at a time, and Jedi could marry and have children who would often become Jedi like their parents.

The main opponent in Episode 7 was one of the chief Dark Jedi under Shindor, Spiden of Volotta. Aided by Asp, a changeling spy from Sentor, Spiden and Shindor controlled a powerful new order of Dark Jedi. Neither Shindor nor Spiden were Sith, for the Sith were truly extinct, no longer to terrorize the Galaxy. The war between the Dark Jedi and Luke’s New Jedi Order are all part of Star Wars: The Sequel Trilogy, Episodes 7, 8, and 9. In the Sequel Trilogy, the threat of the Dark Jedi is vanquished, eliminating the dark side of the Force forever. No kyber crystal would ever be able to enhance the dark side again, and every Jedi who’d ever lived could now return as a Jedi ghost.

Luke Skywalker and his sister, Leia Organa Solo, continued in their positions of leadership. 20 years after Episode 7, they entered into negotiations with the fierce Raverons of the Unknown Regions. The Raverons attempted to take over the Republic, breaking their negotiations. Luckily, the Raverons failed. Luke and Leia lived to be well over 100 years old. With Leia’s passing, Grone Tisal, Chief of Coruscant Secret Security, became the next elected Chief of State. The Jedi Order continued to prosper and protect the Galaxy under Luke’s son, Ben Skywalker. Peace was established throughout the Galaxy.

Star Wars Episode 9??? Will it stop? Thankfully not!!!

Star Wars Episode 9
Script Plot Summary Synopsis Story
Victory of the Force
by
George Lucas

Streaming through hyper space, Han Solo, Leia, R2-D2, C-3PO and Chewbacca are on their way to Han’s home world of Corellia to attend Han’s mother’s funeral. After securing a docking bay for the Millennium Falcon, the group exits the Falcon and hires a transport to take them to Han’s mother’s residence. There are hundreds of people at the Solo’s abode. Suddenly, Dark Jedi cyborgs attack the proceedings. A dramatic fire fight envelopes the Solo home. Han and Company duck for cover.

R2-D2 and C-3PO get separated from the rest of their group. The roof of the Solo building explodes open. A Dark Jedi star ship floats above the Solo building. R2-D2 and C-3PO are pulled up into the sky and into the cargo hold of the star ship. Han, Leia and Chewie watch as the star ship leaves with the droids in its belly. Han tries to figure out why the Dark Jedi would want the droids. They seem to have no real value (except sentimental worth) or so Han thinks.

Luke Skywalker, Ben Skywalker and Anakin Solo are on Grentarik, the home world of Yoda the Whill, looking for information about the dark side of the Force. The three Jedi locate Yoda’s old dwelling and begin to search through Yoda’s belongings. They are looking for clues as to where they can find definitive information on how to destroy the dark side. Anakin finds a piece a data pad that gives details that at the central Whill library, the three can find out where several ancient Sith holocrons may be hidden.

The clones of Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker are now fully mature. The Dark Jedi are training the Vader and Luke clone in the art of light-saber combat. The Vader clone is wearing the iconic black mask and armor while the Luke clone is dressed all in black. The new Dark Jedi leader, Horgon, watches as the clones train against each other with non-lethal light sabers.

On Coruscant, Mara Jade sits with the Jedi Council discussing the Dark Jedi threat. All resources are being used by Republic spies to find the location of the Dark Jedi’s secret base.

Han sends a message to Luke telling Luke that the droids have been captured by the Dark Jedi. Luke informs Han that they will all meet up at Coruscant shortly. Luke, Ben and Anakin leave Yoda’s dwelling and use a land speeder to travel to the central Whill library. At this library, Luke finds data that gives a place where the ancient Sith holocrons may be hidden. Some Sith holocrons are supposed to be located in the lower levels of Briskus, an exotic planet on the other side of the galaxy.

Luke and Company leave the library. While walking to their star ship, the three Jedi are attacked by Rinkies, creatures that look like giant rats. After a few minutes, all the Rinkies are destroyed. The three Jedi resume their walk to their star ship. They enter the star ship and enter the coordinates for Briskus. Their star ship leaves the orbit of Grentarik and enters hyper space.

Meanwhile, Mara Jade and Lando Calrissian visit the Republic weapons development offices. Mara is shown a new weapon called the black hole devastator. This weapon can be used to artificially create a black hole. The military applications of this weapon are stunning. Entire star systems can now be destroyed with immense ease.

Han, Leia and Chewie arrive back on Coruscant. They head to the Solo’s apartment in the upscale Prilox section of Coruscant. While this is happening, Luke, Ben and Anakin arrive in the Briskus star system. Suddenly, Dark Jedi fighters swarm the Jedi’s star ship. An intense dog fight ensues. Luckily, the Jedi are able to disable or destroy all the Dark Jedi fighters. The Jedi then land on Briskus in order to find the Sith holocrons.

Luke finds the location of a long-lost and forgotten Sith Temple. Inside this temple, the three Jedi accidentally set off security measures meant to protect the Sith Temple from intruders. Dozens of spider battle droids swarm around the three Jedi. Blaster fire envelopes the room. The three Jedi valiantly deflect the laser fire with their light sabers. One by one, each battle droid is destroyed by the Jedi.

After the fight, Luke and Company make their way to a secret room which contains several Sith holocrons. Luke places the holocrons into his backpack and the three exit the temple. Luke, Ben and Anakin head back to Coruscant. Several hours later, Han, Leia, Anakin Solo, Lando, Luke, Mara Jade and Ben are all sitting at a large table in the Solo’s apartment eating dinner. Luke informs the group that Han, Lando and himself will search for R2-D2 and C-3PO. While Leia, Mara, Ben and Anakin will work on downloading all information from the Sith holocrons.

Meanwhile, the clones of Vader and Luke are training against dozens of Dark Jedi. The talent displayed by the clones is amazing. The Dark Jedi warriors have a difficult time defending themselves from the attack by the clones. Non-lethal light sabers are used by all parties so that no one will get injured during the practice sessions.

While analyzing the Sith holocrons, Leia makes a stunning discovery. It appears that the heart and essence of the dark side exists in the Valorius star system. According to the holocrons, if the Valorius star system can be destroyed then the dark side itself can be brought to an end. Mara informs Leia about the black hole devastator weapon. Anakin and Ben are puzzled as to what kind of weapon Mara is referring to. Mara explains the capabilities of the new weapon and the fact that it can be used to destroy entire star systems.

Fortunately, R2-D2 contains a hidden homing beacon that cannot be detected by the Dark Jedi. As a result, Luke, Han and Lando are able to track the droids to a planet called Usiss. Above Usiss, the Dark Jedi have a space station where R2-D2 and C-3PO are being held. Inside the space station, R2-D2 and C-3PO are being tortured by the Dark Jedi. C-3PO explains to the Dark Jedi that the droids don’t know anything about the Jedi. However, the torture continues even though the droids protest their ignorance.

Convinced that the droids contain no useful information, the Dark Jedi place a cloaked thermal detonator inside of R2-D2. The Dark Jedi proceed to put this detonator into R2-D2 while the droids are offline. The Dark Jedi plan to release the droids and hopefully Luke, Mara Jade and other Jedi will be killed by the thermal detonator contained in R2.

Meanwhile, outside the Dark Jedi space station, Han and Chewie in the Millennium Falcon open fire on the Dark Jedi space station. Lando in his star ship also blasts the space station. Luke comes in behind the other two trying to locate the two droids. Explosions rip the insides of the space station to shreds. R2-D2 is able to break free from his restraints. R2 also frees C-3PO and the two plan their escape. R2-D2 heads towards a release hatch. C-3PO says: “I’ve got a bad feeling about this.” Next, R2 opens the hatch with his arm and instantaneously the droids are sucked out into the vacuum of space. The space station explodes in a brilliant ball of light.

Luke detects the droids. Luke informs Han of where the droids are. Next, the Millennium Falcon picks up the droids. On board the Falcon, Chewie detects that R2 contains a very powerful thermal detonator. After several tense moments, Chewie is able to remove the detonator from R2. The detonator is then disarmed.

With the droids safely with them, our heroes head back to Coruscant. On Coruscant, Luke heads to the Jedi Temple. Mara Jade informs Luke about all they have learned about the dark side and the Valorius star system. The Valorius star system is comprised of one star, 31 planets, hundreds of moon and countless millions of asteroids. Luke agrees that the black hole devastator must be used to destroy the Valorius star system so that the dark side can be brought to a permanent end.

Luke gathers the Jedi together and tells them about their mission. Luke informs them that they will probably have to battle through many Dark Jedi in order to get the devastator set up on the primary Valorius planet. Within hours, the Jedi strike force arrives in the Valorius star system. The system is protected by hundreds and hundreds of Dark Jedi fighters and bulk war freighters. An immense star battle erupts between the Jedi and the Dark Jedi.

Many of the Jedi fighters land on the surface of Valorius. These Jedi make preparations to make the necessary adjustments so that the black hole devastator can be deployed. The Dark Jedi storm up from underground caves on Valorius and attack the Jedi. Hundreds of light-saber duels erupt between the Jedi and Dark Jedi.

Horgon (the leader of the Dark Jedi) and the clones of Vader and Luke head into the heat of battle and head towards where the Jedi are setting up the devastator. Luke, Mara Jade, Ben and Anakin arrive on the surface of Valorius near where the devastator is being constructed. Horgon and the clones of Vader and Luke engage the real Luke, Mara Jade, Ben Skywalker and Anakin Solo in a light-saber fight. The fighting is intense. Luke screams out that they must keep the Dark Jedi from reaching the location of where the devastator is being constructed. It will take a few minutes before the Jedi scientists constructing the necessary aspects of the devastator will be completed.

Ben and Anakin battle Horgon while the real Luke battles the Luke clone and Mara Jade battles the Vader clone. Horgon strikes down Anakin. Ben screams in anger and then lunges at Horgon with all his might. The real Luke cuts the clone Luke in half. The real Luke then turns to fight Horgon in order to prevent Horgon from killing Ben. The Vader clone battles Mara Jade. They exchange many, many blows.

The Jedi scientists signal Luke that the devastator is ready to be activated. Luke tells the scientists to give them just a few minutes. Luke knows that Horgon and the clone Vader must not be allowed to escape. Ben and Luke swing wildly at Horgon. Mara is being overwhelmed by clone Vader. Luke uses Force vanish and re-materializes behind Horgon. Horgon turns to face Luke and at that moment Ben pierces Horgon’s heart with a light saber. Horgon is no more. Luke then uses Force leap and lands on top of clone Vader. Mara Jade uses this distraction to slice off the legs of clone Vader. Luke then finishes the evil clone off.

Next, Luke orders all the Jedi to leave Valorius immediately. After all the Jedi exit the Valorius star system, the black hole devastator is turned on. An artificial black hole is produced by the machine. The massive Valorius planet shrinks to the size of a molecule in an instant. The rest of the Valorius star system including the star that warms the system is reduced to the size of an atom. The black hole becomes so super concentrated that it explodes in a tremendous fury. The dark side is destroyed for all time.

The Jedi meet at Yavin 4 to celebrate the defeat of the dark side. In the distance, Luke can see countless thousands of Jedi from every era appear as Jedi spirits (including Obi-Wan Kenobi, Yoda, Mace Windu, Qui-Gon Jinn and Anakin Skywalker). The spirits of the long-dead Jedi (who have pleaded with the light side of the Force to avenge their deaths) watch the New Jedi Order celebrate final victory over the dark side. Luke’s Jedi Order and the New Republic will enter a 1,000 year period of peace and prosperity. The dark side is no more. Fade to black. Roll end credits.

Star Wars Episode 8? Yup!!!

Star Wars Episode 8
Script Plot Summary Synopsis Story
The Republic in Crisis
by
George Lucas

After having their secret base destroyed by the Jedi Order in Episode 7, the Dark Jedi decide to remain hidden and underground until the clones of Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker have fully developed. Meanwhile, the Republic faces a new war from a large group of super commandos who call themselves the Mandalorians. The Mandalorian super commandos originate from the unknown regions of the galaxy. While training on the planet called Nassius, special units of the Republic military are attacked by the Mandalorians. The fighting is fierce and very spectacular. The Republic units are defeated in a large-scale space and land battle. After being victorious, the Mandalorians retreat to the safety of deep space.

Meanwhile, Luke Skywalker, Mara Jade, C-3PO and R2-D2 are on a secret mission to Mon Calamari. Luke is searching for the legendary kyber crystals that are rumored to be hidden on Mon Calamari. A kyber crystal greatly magnifies the power of the Force in whoever wears the crystal. Luke and Company come across a smuggler who claims to know where the kyber crystals might be hidden. For a high price, the smuggler gives Luke the location where the crystals might be. Luke, Jade, C-3PO and R2-D2 arrive at this secret location and startle some thieves who have beaten them to the crystals. The thieves see Luke and company. These thieves immediately flee in their hydro foil water boat over the great ocean of Mon Calamari. Skywalker and company give chase in their own hydro foil.

After a spectacular chase sequence on the Listinik Ocean, Luke and company manage to overtake the thieves’ boat and retrieve the kyber crystals. With the crystals in hand, Skywalker and company leave Mon Calamari and head back to Coruscant.

On Coruscant, the Republic Senate has voted to increase their military budget in order to defeat the mysterious Mandalorian super commandos.

Somewhere else on Coruscant, Luke, Jade, C-3PO and R2-D2 arrive back home and meet up with Han Solo, Leia Solo, Lando Calrissian and Chewbacca. Han informs Luke that Han, Lando and Chewbacca will scout out the location of the hidden Mandalorian fleet. Luke tells Han to take R2-D2 to help with the mission. Leia decides to remain on Coruscant to meet with some powerful Senators regarding the difficult war with the Mandalorians.

Han, Lando, Chewbacca, R2-D2 and a Bothan named Terk Minas board the Millennium Falcon and head into space looking for the Mandalorian fleet. Meanwhile, Ben Skywalker (the son of Luke Skywalker and Mara Jade), with his Jedi girlfriend named Paron Lighton, are attempting to make the Kessel Run in record time. Together, Ben and Paron fly a two seat fighter with Ben as the pilot and Paron as the navigator. After much excitement, Ben and Paron complete the Kessel Run, but fall short of setting any kind of record. They know that it will take many attempts for them to come close to breaking the record set for completing the Kessel Run.

Meanwhile back on Coruscant, Luke and Mara Jade are told about a group of Mandalorian fighters that are battling Rogue Squadron. Luke scrambles the Jedi star fighters to help Rogue Squadron. Luke and Jade board two fighters. Luke, Jade and the Jedi strike force enter hyperspace and arrive at the battle. The fighting is very hectic. Several of Rogue Squadron’s fighters have been destroyed. Luke and company enter the battle. Jade’s ship is disabled and Mara Jade is captured by the Mandalorians. Luke tries to reach the Mandalorian cruiser that has Jade. Several Mandalorian fighters attack Luke’s X-Wing. Luke’s X-Wing spirals out of control. The Mandalorians quickly leave the battle with Mara Jade. The life support system of Luke’s X-Wing has been knocked offline. Luke is forced to enter Force hibernation so that he can survive until he is rescued. Soon, Luke is rescued by what’s left of Rogue Squadron. They head back for the safety of Coruscant.

In deep space, Han and company in the Millennium Falcon have stumbled across the Mandalorian fleet. Han sends the location of the Mandalorian fleet back to the Republic military’s headquarters. Dozens of Mandalorian fighters are sent to take out the Falcon. Han and Lando take control of the Falcon’s laser cannons while Chewbacca pilots the Falcon. The Mandalorian fighters chase after the Falcon and damage the Falcon’s hyperdrive. R2-D2 informs Chewie that the closest inhabited planet is the Wookiee home world called Kashyyyk.

Chewie heads for Kashyyyk with the Mandalorian fighters closing in on them. After much fighting, Han and Lando manage to take out all the Mandalorian fighters with the Falcon’s turbo lasers. However, the Falcon has been badly damaged. The Falcon safely arrives at Kashyyyk and Chewie lands the Falcon at a space port that is closest to where Chewbacca’s brother lives. Chewbacca has R2-D2 record a message that is to be given to Chewie’s brother. R2-D2 exits the Falcon and heads in the general direction of where Chewie’s brother lives. While R2-D2 is gone, Han, Chewie, Lando and Terk attempt to repair the Falcon.

Meanwhile, Ben Skywalker and Paron Lighton arrive on Coruscant and meet up with Anakin Solo (the son of Han Solo and Princess Leia Organa Solo) to have drinks at a local night club. While in the night club, Ben, Paron and Anakin are attacked by several thugs. Paron says: “I have a bad feeling about this.” Anakin uses several Force fireballs to take out a couple of the thugs. At the same time, Ben unleashes a Force avalanche which causes a nearby wall to fall on several of the thugs. Paron ignites her light saber and takes out some of the thugs. In a few minutes, the three Jedi have prevailed over the thugs and decide to leave the night club.

Elsewhere on Coruscant, Luke heads to his apartment on. Luke enters his apartment and feels a tremor in the Force. Someone is in Luke’s apartment. Luke turns on his light saber and looks around. The Dark Jedi named Spiden walks out of the shadows with his light saber on. Spiden tells Luke that Luke should have killed him while Luke had the chance. The two engage in a dramatic light-saber duel. During the duel, Spiden informs Luke that the Jedi failed to destroy the clones of Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker. Luke is stunned by this revelation. The duel continues and eventually Luke manages to cut Spiden in half from Spiden’s head all the way to the bottom of Spiden’s torso.

Meanwhile, R2-D2 arrives at Chewie’s brother’s home and plays Chewie’s message for Chewie’s brother. The message tells Chewie’s brother that Chewie and his friends need help securing a new hyperdrive for the Falcon. Chewie’s brother immediately leaves with R2-D2 to find a new hyperdrive.

Republic spies send a message to Luke that the location of Mara Jade has been found. Luke is elated by this news. The spies inform Luke that Jade can be found on the planet Concorde Dawn, the home world of the Mandalorians. Luke contacts the Jedi temple and states that he will need several hundred Jedi star fighters to accompany him to free Jade from the Mandalorians. Luke invites Ben, Paron and Anakin to accompany the Jedi to rescue Jade. On Kashyyyk, Chewie’s brother and R2-D2 arrive at the Falcon with a new hyperdrive. Luke contacts Han and tells Han that the Falcon is needed to help Luke rescue Mara Jade. Han tells Luke that the Falcon will meet up with Luke as soon as possible.

Republic spies further inform Luke that the Mandalorians are building thousands of new battle cruisers and fighters that will be used by the Mandalorians to conquer the Republic. Luke knows this Mandalorian fleet must be destroyed at all costs. Luke contacts the Republic military and tells the military to meet Luke at a rendezvous destination. As Luke leaves for battle, Leia says: “May the Force be with you.” A few minutes later, Luke and many Jedi in their star fighters wait in deep space for the Republic military and the Millennium Falcon to arrive.

After a few hours, both the Millennium Falcon and the Republic fleet meet up with Luke and the Jedi warriors. They enter hyperspace and soon arrive at Concorde Dawn. Luke spots a gigantic star ship construction yard that orbits Concorde Dawn. Thousands of Mandalorian battle cruisers and fighters can be seen under construction. Luke and company target this construction yard. Hundreds of Mandalorian star fighters and battle cruisers are launched from the surface of Concorde Dawn. A massive space battle between thousands of star ships erupts above Concorde Dawn.

Luke locates Mara Jade’s position on Concorde Dawn. Luke asks Ben, Paron and Anakin to accompany him to rescue Jade. The four Jedi arrive on the surface of Coruscant and enter a Mandalorian facility where Jade is being held. Paron uses the Force to read a Mandalorian’s guards mind. By reading this guard’s mind, Paron is able to know exactly where Jade is being hidden in the building. Luke, Ben, Paron and Anakin ignite their light sabers and battle their way thru dozens of Mandalorian super commandos and Agork wolves to reach Jade. Paron is killed during the fighting, but Luke manages to rescue Jade. Luke, Jade and Anakin exit the Mandalorian facility. Ben exits with the body of Paron slung over his back.

The Republic fleet and the Jedi star fighters completely annihilate the Mandalorian military. The Mandalorians surrender and agree to enter a peace agreement with the Republic. The Jedi arrive back on Coruscant and hold a funeral service for Paron Lighton and the dozens of other Jedi who died in the Battle of Concorde Dawn. Ben places Paron on a Jedi pyre and Paron’s body is consumed by a fire. Dozens of dead Jedi are burned, which is the way the Jedi honor their dead. Hundreds of Jedi solemnly watch as Paron and the other Jedi are consumed by the fire. While the Mandalorian war is now over, the Jedi paid a very high price. The Dark Jedi, with the clones of Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker, still remain a major threat to the stability of the Republic. Fade to black. Roll end credits.

Star Wars Episode 7? Here it is!

Star Wars Episode 7
Plot Summary Script Synopsis Story
The Fallen Hero
by
George Lucas

Thirty years have passed since the Battle of Endor (Return of the Jedi), where both the Emperor and Vader met their doom. During the decades since Endor, the remnants of the Empire have been defeated and the New Republic formed out of the ashes of the Empire. However, enemies against the New Republic still exist. A rogue group of Dark Jedi have emerged that threaten the fragile stability that the New Republic enjoys.

The Cloud City of Bespin has been converted into one of the many Jedi training facilities located all throughout the galaxy. The Jedi’s numbers are beginning to grow to Old Republic heights. The New Jedi Order consists of about 7,000 Jedi Knights. Bespin is now the home to both Jedi Masters, Knights and Apprentices.

During routine Jedi training on Bespin, the Dark Jedi invade wearing jet packs, which send them like a swarm dropping into the upper reaches of the cloud city. These Dark Jedi are seeking to re-establish the legacy of Darth Vader and, hence, they wear a more-advanced-looking version of Darth Vader’s mask, helmet and body armor in honor of their fallen hero.

As the Dark Jedi attack Bespin, their sleek battle satellites swarm the floating city and rain down turbolaser fire on the city. The Jedi are taken by complete surprise. However, the Dark Jedi seek not to conquer Bespin, but to capture some of the Jedi’s prized holocrons, which hold vast quantities of information about the ancient ways and customs of the Jedi. As hundreds of light-saber battles erupt between the Jedi and their Dark Jedi counterparts, some of the Dark Jedi use concussion grenades to cause damage to Bespin’s superstructure.

A few of the holocrons are captured by the Dark Jedi. With their mission now complete, the Dark Jedi retreat from Cloud City and fly away from the city using their jet packs which they wear on their backs. The Dark Jedi fly into the nearby clouds and disappear. The roar of engines can be heard as the Dark Jedi escape in their customized Tie Rager star ships, which were hidden in the clouds above Cloud City.

The 12 members of the Jedi Council are present in the Jedi Council chamber in the Jedi Temple on Coruscant. Several Jedi, who survived the battle of Bespin against the Dark Jedi, relate to Luke Skywalker (the head of the Jedi Council) that several Jedi holocrons were taken during the battle. Luke informs the Jedi Council that the Jedi will have to find these lost holocrons and bring the Dark Jedi under control.

Meanwhile, just outside of the Jedi Temple, a shape-shifting Dark Jedi named Asp morphs into Ben Skywalker and enters the Jedi Temple. Asp makes his way to the Jedi super computer area where Asp hopes to disable the Jedi’s computer network. Padawans Anakin Solo (son of Han Solo and Leia Organa) and Ben Skywalker (son of Luke Skywalker and Mara Jade) are walking by the computer area. They both sense something and enter the computer area. Ben and Anakin are shocked to see someone in the room that looks exactly like Ben. Asp sees the padawans and flees the room. Ben and Anakin chase after Asp.

Asp makes his way to the garage at the Jedi Temple and steals one of the Jedi swoop bikes. At a high rate of speed, Asp flies down the streets of Coruscant. Ben and Anakin each get a swoop bike and pursue Asp. After a thrilling chase, Asp wrecks his swoop bike. The Coruscant zoo is nearby and Asp enters the zoo to hide from Anakin and Ben. Anakin and Ben park their swoop bikes and quickly follow Asp into the zoo. A spectacular light-saber duel erupts between Asp vs. Ben and Anakin. As the duel rages on, Asp begins to lose so he uses his light saber to release Rygor tigers from their cage.

Ben sees the tigers and says: “I’ve got a bad feeling about this.” The tigers spot Ben and Anakin and then charge at the two padawans. Ben and Anakin battle the tigers. Within in a few minutes, Ben and Anakin have killed all seven of the ferocious tigers. However, by the time Ben and Anakin are finished fighting the tigers, Asp has escaped to parts unknown.

Elsewhere, Shindor, the leader of the Dark Jedi, is elated to learn that some of the Jedi holocrons have successfully been taken from the Jedi. Shindor is currently at the Dark Jedi’s cloning facility, which is located on a planet nearby Coruscant. Shindor is using this facility to make clones of Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker. The Dark Jedi plan to fulfill Darth Vader’s prophecy that he and Luke should rule the galaxy as father and son and bring peace and order to the galaxy. The Dark Jedi are using Imperial DNA samples of Vader to produce a clone of the Dark Lord of the Sith and are using DNA samples from Luke’s severed hand to produce a clone of the venerable Jedi Master. Skywalker’s severed hand is currently owned by one of the chief Dark Jedi named, Spiden.

Meanwhile, Spiden hatches a plan to leak the Dark Jedi’s efforts to clone Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker to spies working for the New Republic. Spiden hopes the leader of the Dark Jedi will be destroyed by forces from the New Republic so that he can become the new leader of the Dark Jedi. Spiden leaks this information. The New Republic military and a Jedi army plan to raid the Dark Jedi hideout.

Also, Spiden contacts Luke Skywalker and asks the great Jedi Master to meet with him on the planet of Sluivan. Spiden tells Luke that Spiden is a smuggler who came across Luke’s severed hand in a preservation box. Luke learns from Spiden that the Empire recovered Luke’s hand that Vader cut off at Bespin. Spiden says that the hand is in perfect condition and can probably be re-attached to Luke’s arm. Luke agrees to meet Spiden on Sluivan.

Luke arrives on Sluivan with R2-D2 and C-3PO. Luke enters a room where Spiden told Luke he would be waiting for Luke. Luke sees Spiden holding his severed hand in a transparent preservation box. Suddenly, the door behind Luke closes. Spiden sets down the hand and pulls out two light sabers. Spiden holds one in each hand and ignites them. Spiden tells Luke that he will now avenge the deaths of Sidious and Vader. Luke pulls out his light saber and ignites it. Luke and Spiden fight with their sabers. Luke manages to cut off one of Spiden’s hands. Spiden continues to fight with his other hand. R2-D2 rolls up behind Spiden. R2 ignites his rocket boosters and crashes into the back of Spiden at a tremendous speed. Spiden falls to the ground. Spiden stands back up dazed. With a slight movement of his hand, Luke uses the Force to send Spiden flying across the room. Spiden slams into a wall and is left unconscious. Luke thanks R2 for his valor, then Luke recovers his severed hand and then cuts the closed door open with his light saber . Luke, R2 and C-3PO exit the room. On Coruscant, a team of Jedi doctors re-attach Luke’s hand to his arm.

Luke learns that the Republic is planning to send a military unit to the planet where the Dark Jedi are cloning Vader and Luke. Luke orders the Jedi star pilots to scramble to their fighters and join the Republic forces in the fight. The Republic and Jedi star fighters arrive at the planet where the Dark Jedi cloning facility is located. Hundreds of Dark Jedi fighters are waiting for them. A massive space battle ensues.

Luke and a dozen or so other Jedi make their way to the surface of the planet and enter the Dark Jedi cloning facility. Light saber battles erupt between the Jedi and the Dark Jedi. Luke finds the Dark Jedi leader, Shindor, and they engage in a light-saber duel. Luke eventually decapitates Shindor. The remaining Dark Jedi flee the cloning facility with the growing clones of Vader and Luke. The Jedi set explosive charges all over the cloning facility. The Jedi flee the cloning facility. A few minutes later, the cloning facility is destroyed by the exploding charges.

While the Dark Jedi cloning facility has been destroyed, the New Republic and Jedi are unaware that the Dark Jedi succeeded in preserving the growing clones of Vader and Luke, which will be utilized in the Dark Jedi’s grand scheme to conquer the galaxy. Back on Coruscant, Anakin Solo and Ben Skywalker are brought before the Jedi Council. For their bravery in combating the Dark Jedi, the Jedi Council makes Anakin and Ben full-fledged Jedi Knights. The two are given their official Jedi robes. Fade to black. Roll end credits.

Star Wars TV Series?

[Lucas announced] two forthcoming TV series. One is an expansion into a 30-minute series of Clone Wars, the series of animated shorts shown on Cartoon Network that chronicles space battles that take place between Episode II and Episode III. ”We’re going to take that and turn it into a 3-D animated version full series,” he said. The other, he said, was a live-action drama that would take place between Episode III and Episode IV (i.e., the story told in the original 1977 film).
