Defeating the Krath

Building a double-bladed lightsaber thousands of years before they became vouge, and making it the most badass of all double-bladed lightsabers.

weaving a mind control trick powerful enough to take over the minds of the entire Republic Senate (eXcept the Jedi present), but subtly enough that none of the Jedi on Coruscant realized it was happening.

There was blasting that big worm-creature of Naga Sadow's that he was going to be sacrificed to as well, of course.

Though the most impressive feat I consider of that era is the fact that that Tree-Jedi actually survived a supernova.

The time that he impressed me most is when he sucked my ass!

Wait, I'm sorry. That was KJA.

you sure it survived? when i read the book it implied that it did but it wasn't exactly too clear about it.

Ood Bnar IIRC? Yeah, he came alive when Dark Empire 2 came around (when Sedriss was on Ossus fighting Luke). Of course, he sacrificed his life to destroy Sedriss a very shortt time later.

Yeah, that was Master Ood.

His survival might have been due to the fact that the supernova occured in the nearby 10-star Cron Cluster, giving the shockwave time to diminish somewhat by the time it reached the Adegan System (though the whole idea is rather silly).

He made Corran Horn cry.

Whatever that was, it wasn't a supernova, per se.

And the planet didn't even have its atmosphere or vegetation totally stripped off.

He preserved his essence in a temple for many millenia, and awoke when new targets arrived.

I was almost going to suggest maybe something like a hyperspace shockwave, but didn't because I wasn't sure if that would sound silly.

I'd be more impressed if he bagged Naomi Sunrider

Spanky The Dolphin · Post by **Spanky The Dolphin** » 2004-04-20 09:44pm

Nomi Sunrider.

Do you mean "bagged=killed" or "banged=had sex with"?

Actually Bagged can refer to either.

And for Exar...either defeating the dragon with a Sith amulet or controlling the entire senate.

That simply means that the planet was sufficiently far enough away from the explosion to have only received a certain amount of energy (and we don't know the distance insofar as I am aware.)

I might alsoadd that the Ysanna sort of prove that the planet was reinhabited at some point during the thousands of years between the TOTJ series and DE - terraforming the planet again in any way is certainly within possibility at that time.

As I recall, didn't one of his subordinates rather outdo him by ripping the core of a sun out and thereby causing the supernova noted above?

CaptainChewbacca · Post by **CaptainChewbacca** » 2004-04-21 01:42pm

Did it to a pair of stars to destroy a republic fleet. Don't remember what the Sith's name was

General Zod · Post by **General Zod** » 2004-04-21 01:44pm

wasn't that actually a feat done by Naga Sadow? which i think was before exar kun became a sith?

YEah, they flung it at a Republic task force chasing them in Naga Sadow's old battleship. But frfom only one star actually. The other ten exploded subsequently (which makes no sense - I'm pretty certain ripping the core from a star does not trigger supernovas, nor does it cause other stars to go supernova subsequently.)

I pretty much chalk up what happend to the fact Aleema did not know shit about what she did, aside from what she was told by Exar Kun (who probably misinformed her so as to deliberately trtigger the Supernova - both to get Ossus evacuated as well as to kill off a treacherous lieutenant.) So that when she ripped the core out, she also unintentionally triggered the supernovas through the Force.

It should also be noted that she did not do this unaided. THere was one of those "magic sith crystal" devices onboard the ship, a rather large one, and she triggered the nova through that.

As Zod correctly pointed out, that was Naga Sadow, when he was escaping Republic forces.

The "supernovae" did not take millions of years once initiated. Ipso facto they were not "supernovae" as we understand them.

And, I believe the EGTP&M states that the Ysanna are descended from Jedi who hid in subterrainian shelters.
