A Pitch Black Force Sub

Replace Riddick with a nasty (powerful) but gentle Sith Lord (i.e Count Dooku). She/He's the Prisoner along with the others crew members and passengers on the ship in Cryogenic stasis. Everything transpires as it did in the movie, before the first encounter with the creatures.

The Sith eventually get his/her Lightsaber before the Solar eclipse.

No Copouts allowed (i.e sith Kills all crew and passenger). This is teamwork here. Perhaps he/she hides his abilities.

Being as a lightsaber is its own lightsource, it gives them an unfair advantage since they just have to cluster around Dooku with the ignited lighsaber. If it was Dooku without his saber then things would be a little more interesting.

Well not totally.It would be a significant disadvantage but, wouldn't change the outcome that much.

How well does a lightsaber work as a light source. From AOTC it didn't seem to be all that effective.

The light saber might protect one person, but that's it. However Dooku could greatly speed up the process of getting the power cells with the force, and use it to help fight off the raptors. It might also aid him in finding the abandon base and realizing the danger from the local wildlife. Passing by thousands of hungry birds of prey is going to set something off.

More interesting might Be NJO Anakin of Jacen both of could manipulate the instincts of animals fairly well. Either one might convince the raptors to go fly off 20 miles away since humans taste like shit.

Actually, it depends on the human. The healthy ones are stringing, but the fat ones are nice--and so very easy to catch.

Anyway, Dooku does it easily. Having a lightsaber allows him to dispatch craploads of the big ones (a murderer killed two at once with just his natural skills and an improvised knife). He can also zap them with force lightning and confuse them. And he won't allow the idiot to crawl away and deactivate the light assembly. He'll just behead him, and the bounty hunter while he's at it. Then he'll escape and take over the galaxy. Whee!

But the birds of prey won't know that with the right force boosted suggestion.

Force Lighting, I'd forgotten about that, those things would be racing for there tunnels in about five seconds.

The raptors would make good minions, they fly in addition to being mindless killing machines, and Star Wars technology should be able to create a suitable sunscreen for them.

I like this idea, but they'd still need some form of limited screen.
