Predictions for the NJO finale

Post by Dorsk 81 »

Ok, so lets hear what you think'll happen. Who'll live? Who'll die? Who'll be the main character come closing time? Who'll be brought back from the dead...?

I don't see another main character dying. I think Tahiri will play a very important role in the next two books.

Coruscant might end up getting destroyed completely. Maybe by that living planet thing...

Shimrra and his court will all die by an uprising of the shamed ones (the baddies are always defeated from within).

Nom Anor will also die (as the Darth Vader of the NJO, besides every prophet has to die).

Luke Skywalker will probabely die, too, giving the responsibility of leading the New Jedi to Jacen or a resurrected Anakin (if they bring him back, i hope it is in a decent way).
The optimist thinks, that we live in the best of all possible worlds and the pessimist is afraid, that this is true.

No, I don't see Luke dying. The series isn't really about him so much as it has been about the next generation of Jedi Knights. Plus, Luke has got a kid to raise, and I doubt the EU authors are cruel enough to deny Luke his long-sought fatherhood.

And the idea of Jacen leading the Jedi Order is truly frightening.

Didnt Lucas mention something that he wouldnt want to see any more of the movie characters die? I can hardly see Luke dying anyways.

I don't know why, but as a character, (NJO) Jaina irritates me immensely.

I sure hope she dies. :twisted:

Well when the people at LucasBooks came up with the idea for Luke dying in Vector Prime, GL shot it down. I don't think he's gonna die here, either. The bad guys'll die, and then who knows.

Jacen pulls his usual whiny shit on Zonoma Sekot. Jaina at least is willing to fight to save lives, and does so.

People change, altough Jacen still has a bit of whiny bitch in him. He realised in Traitor that "fuck this shit. I need to kick ass in order to survive my miserable excuse of life".

The 8th node being empty will be revealed, starting a massive revolt in the Vong society.

The Chiss will enter the war before the end
Hapes will be able to dive into the war again

Tahiri, now a Vong Jedi, will have resurrected Anakin using Vong shaping and the Dark side of the Force (now that's a scary combo)

Anakin will save Tahiri from the dark side, and they will lead the shameless revolt, and Nom Amor will actually become a believer.

Final battle on Coruscant in front of most of the Vong
Anakin vs Shamara (sp), Tahiri vs the herretic shaper. Anakin will kill Shamara

Jacen will end up with Danni
Jag will die saving Jaina to prevent Han from giving his life to save her.

Mara will tell luke she's pregnant with another kid.

And finally..

Anakin will ask Tahiri to marry him, and Tahiri will accept.

Sounds like another fairy tale happy ending to me....except for the Jag bit.

Yup.

And more then likely, that's how things will end, with a fairy-tale ending on several levels.

I'll won't continue past Star By Star unless A) Jacen dies, B) Anakin returns, or C) All of the above.

So whatever the ending if it don't involve one of those scenarios I'm out.

I see Kyp personally destroying a the main fleet by using the dark side to blow up a star. Then he kills himself.

BTW, is Centerpoint still operational? I haven't read the books yet and I was going to buy Vector Prime next week.

It is. Just all the Jedi are pussys, and don't want to use it.

Then why don't Wedge and Han just use it? Or better yet, Kyp.
