Top 5 jedi

1. Jaina Solo: you knew this was coming. My blorbo archetype. Has suffered more than jesus. Had a purple lightsaber before Mace Windu made it cool. Serial heartbreaker. Started falling to the dark side once and snapped herself out of it. Believed she was a bug for a hot second. ✨️mommy issues✨️ Literally thinks of herself as a weapon. No one is doing it like her 💖

2. Obi-Wan Kenobi: the saddest man in the world. Drama queen. Absolutely unhinged but is always paired with Anakin which makes him look reasonable. Costs the Jedi Order 7 billion credits worth of cloaks. Like 4 darksiders consider him their nemesis. Everyone he knew & loved either betrayed him or died so he fucked off to grieve alone in the desert for 20 years. Didn't change his surname but was never found anyway. Lost against Vader on purpose to get one up on him

3. Mara Jade: child assassin turned smuggler turned jedi. *pats her head* this ol girl can fit so much childhood trauma in her. Has 7 hidden weapons on her at all times (doesn't actually need any of them to kill you). Extremely grudgingly discovers the power of friendship. Her least favorite coworker posthumously becomes her father in law. Karen Traviss when I catch you

4. Tahiri Veila: free my girl she did all of it but I don't care. Feral desert child for the first decade of her life. Captured and experimented on by alien scientists at 14. Went on a suicide mission at 15. (Best friend died.) Fell into a coma to merge her two warring personalities at like 17. Helped give an entire alien species an existential crisis. After that.....troy denning you will answer for your crimes

5. Tyria Sarkin: extremely underrated. Part of the OG Wraith Squadron. Not very strong in the Force but she makes up for it in guts, determination, and the type of insanity that only Wraiths have. Was eventually Knighted and I'm so proud of her <3

Wes Janson: Does everyone understand what we're doing now? Falynn Sandskimmer: We don't understand your goddamn directions! Falynn Sandskimmer: "Go leftright!" Falynn Sandskimmer: "Facing the floor, go right." Falynn Sandskimmer: "Go to the second door, take a left, then look in the mirror and go right." Piggy: I need you to take an angle that's a cosine of sixty.  Face Loran: Piggy went off on a tangent as a math teacher.  Tyria Sarkin: Way to back it up there, Face.  Face Loran: Hey Piggy, you want to cosine some document- dammit, you already did that one. Piggy: Yeah, I already used cosine. Ton Phanan: You just committed the cardinal sine. Wedge Antilles: ALRIGHT, KNOCK IT OFF.

I keep/ a lighter in my pocketbook/ in case I wanna set myself on fire

fun fact when I was reading wraith squadron I jumbled up Tyria and Falynn’s descriptions in my head and was imaging them with swapped hair colours…oops. Anyways because of that I wanted to draw Tyria with two toned hair in my design. (caption from NOT SPECIAL by babystorme)

“And now, for the final subject of this briefing.” Wedge Antilles said, lifting his gaze from the datapad before him and studying the group of men and women scattered throughout the room. 

While Wraith Squadron was far from as rigidly structured as most squadrons—Wes Janson, for instance, was sprawled across a chair like a smuggler or a printer’s apprentice, feet twiddling in the air. Kell Tainer was sitting with his chair backward, arms propped on the back of his chair, and Shalla Nelprin was sitting on the ground, legs crossed—the group was still listening attentively. The sharpening of their interest at his last words was almost tangible, and Wedge held back a sigh. Oh, this is gonna end well.

“Life Day,” he said, and the chuckles, grins, and groans of the squadron filled the air. “Now, I’m sure we all remember the fiasco that was last year—”

“I wouldn’t call it a complete fiasco,” Kell said, grinning at Tyria, who flushed a little but grinned back.

Wedge leveled a quelling look at him. “As I was saying. This year, there will be some rules.”

“What?” Phanan looked horrified. “There are no rules on Life Day.”

Star Wars Legends: Poll of the Week - Favorite Wraith Backstory, part 2

In the Star Wars Legends novel X-Wing: Wraith Squadron, Wedge Antilles and Wes Janson put together a new kind of group for the New Republic Navy – a combination commando unit and starfighter squadron. To conserve resources, Wedge and Wes recruited the initial members of the squadron largely from pilots who had promising skills, but had been identified as misfits or at risk of washing out of the New Republic navy.

Wedge, Wes, and ten other pilots with a variety of skills and backstories made up the original roster of Wraith Squadron (initially known as Gray Squadron).

Of these five original Wraiths to join Wedge and Wes, whose backstory was your favorite? (We covered the other half of the original Wraith Squadron roster in last week’s poll.)

Eurrsk “Grinder” Thri’ag, a Bothan slicer who had a talent for angering his squadmates in various ways, and later turned out to have an extreme love of playing pranks but little sense of the right audience or timing.

Hohass “Runt” Ekwesh, a Thakwaash pilot who, like most of his species, had multiple personalities and regularly switched among them. He had difficulty with flight training while in his “pilot mind” personality as it was focused on finding and shooting enemies rather than on following orders, and upon first joining the Wraiths had a tendency to switch wildly among his various minds.

Tyria Sarkin, a Toprawan pilot with mild Force-sensitivity who was recruited to the squad for her previous experience in the Antarian Rangers, an elite anti-Imperial guerrilla force from her planet; she had nearly washed out due to an abusive training officer who had tampered with her flight scores and blackmailed her about it, destroying much of her self-confidence.

Ton Phanan, a doctor who was seriously injured in the Battle of Endor when the medship he was on was attacked, and chose to become a pilot so he could prevent others from being shot by Imperials instead of merely dealing with the after effects; because of his allergy to bacta, he had to rely on cybernetic implants to deal with his injuries.

Garik “Face” Loran, a former holovid actor who was famous in his youth for his good looks (thus the nickname) and his starring roles in a series of thinly-veiled Imperial propaganda holos that had been wildly successful. He later learned the truth about the Empire from an extremist anti-Imperial group who had kidnapped him, sustained severe injuries to his face, and eventually defected to the Alliance and attempted to atone for his previous work for the Empire.

Of these five original Wraiths, whose backstory is your favorite?

Eurrsk “Grinder” Thri’ag (Bothan slicer and prankster)

Hohass “Runt” Ekwesh (Thakwaash pilot with multiple minds)

Tyria Sarkin (Force-sensitive Toprawan pilot)

Ton Phanan (doctor with a bacta allergy)

Garik “Face” Loran (former holovid child star atoning for his propaganda)
