Ewoks in DM?

[Cal Wright]

A recent comic had two pilots discussing the holocost. I'll have to go find out which issue now, but it was explained that the rebel forces managed to save the Ewoks.

SW Tales made them out to be pretty damn vicious.

Well, they were going to eat the heroes..

Wasn't it made official somewhere that there was no Endor holocaust? It happened exactly like Saxton had as alternative theory too..

Yes. EG to aliens makes it clear that Endor survived in the Ewok entry, and the aformentioned Tales incident also stated taht the Rebel fleet intercepted the wreckage and what not, preserving the Sanctuary Moon

Damn Official fanboy kiss-ass.

EDIT: However, the EGTAS is an "in-universe" document and subject to Republic cover-up. I still think holocaust is easier to swollow than the amalgation of possibilities and excuses you'd need to swollow otherwise. It also allows the possibility that the affects of the holocaust were somewhat mitigated by one or more of the following circumstances (I think this is easier to accept than all of them really required for a total negation of the Endorian mass extinction) and the New Republic cleaned-up and resettled the Ewoks.

.. A luxury they didn't have.

I thought it was official?

Or is CS's Endor Holocaust actually canon? ; )*

*It obviously has logic to it, but I never knew it was canon.

The Endor holocaust appears to be as certain as the 11-km Executor, the 900 km Death Star II, in other words, indirectly movie canon.

However, except for drastically stretching credability of Dark Apprentice, the theory holds up.

There is a black hole near Endor known as Endor's Gate. According to the lamentable Glove of Darth Vader novel series, Endor's Gate distorts the space around Endor, and often creates random wormholes.

Supposedly the destruction of the Death Star II/the death of Palpatine triggered one of these wormholes which sucked up a lot of the Death Star's debris and spit it out in the Calamari system.

The only way to avoid the holocaust in my opinion is a severely bizarre frankenstein collection of circumstances.

Consider the following:

I. With the destruction of the shield generator and likely the repulsor/tractor holding the Death Star in its low artificial geosynchronous prompted Jerjerrod to fire the Death Star's sublight engines--to raise it into a stable orbit and also to try and reach safe distance from where he could destroy Endor.

II. In its ascent trajectory, the Death Star II explodes. The dark side rage caused by Palpatine's death and the extreme mass-energy in the conflagration that consumes the battle station warps space-time sufficiently to trigger one of the Endor's Gate wormholes. The hole in space and time swollows much of the Death Star's explosion's mass and energy and links up with a spatial distortion in Mon Cal, dumping much of it into interplanetary space. Much of the remaining material is propelled by the Death Star's momentum away from the planet.

III. The Endor base's regional security shield deflects the most massive and dangerous impactors and debris.

IV. The orbiting ejecta is funneled into distant orbits or into one of Endor's lunar cousins, away from Endor and a possible holocaust.

V. The fine and late-falling ejecta the Rebels could not get a rid of causes a mass-extinction event, but not enough to outright destroy the biosphere. The effects of a planet reeling are small enough to go unnoticed by Durron.

In my humble opinion, if you don't buy this, than you must assume the Endor Holocaust happened, and Durron is a delusional freak.

ARg.... Barnes & Noble still hasn't delivered my Dark Empire... It been 2 damn months now...


ANyway, on the Ewoks subject: Yes, that's an Ewok.

Or we could just say that the gas giant Endor sucked up most of DS2, just like Yavin IV never suffered a holocaust.

There was no Yavin holocaust for a good reason. The Death Star was really far away when it blew.
