First text description: CW: spoilers for season 1 of The Mandalorian and The Rise of Skywalker My theory on The Child/“Baby Yoda” Second text description: Having watched all of The Mandalorian episodes, read James Luceno’s Star Wars Legends novel Darth Plagueis and scoured through Star Wars databases, I strongly believe that... Third text description: The Child is one of Darth Plagueis’ experiments! Final text description: My reasoning? 1. The Child was born 41 years before the Battle of Yavin (events of Star Wars IV), the same birth year of powerful Jedi Knight/Sith Lord Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader. Plagueis was infamous for manipulating midi-chlorians to manipulate life forms. In the novel of the same name, Darth Plagueis has secret chambers filled with deceased and living creatures that he has experimented on in order to try and obtain biological immortality for himself. In the Legends continuity, Anakin Skywalker’s immaculate conception was revealed to be caused by The Force in reaction to Darth Plagueis’ experiments. 2. There is a lot of mystery about Yoda’s species except for the fact that its members are very sensitive to The Force. Given that Din Djarin (The titular Mandalorian) suspects that The Child is a strand-cast (term for genetically engineered life-forms in the Star Wars Universe, like Snoke) it is possible that the latter individual is artificial in origin. #babyyoda #darthplagueis #midichlorians #StarWars #starwarstheory #thechild #themandalorian #themandalorianthechild #themandaloriantheory https://www.instagram.com/p/CHgreQlDXwL/?igshid=3bos11wh2ap5
