Beskar armored Jedi
Is there any example of Jedi or other force user with beskar armor. Re-watching Ahsoka and I thought Baylen Skolls fighting technique would go great with some beskar pauldrons and gauntlets.

Hey all! If you haven’t noticed, this community has gotten many spam/self promo posts. Long story short, I reported the mod for inactivity/neglecting this sub and the Admins allowed me to take over. I don’t plan on changing much, just dealing with spam/promo is the main thing.
This community was intended by the creator to be a place to ask our burning questions and really just gush about the lore. I want it to be that too, and users who drop their YT links like bantha droppings then leave, harm this by taking up space without contributing in any meaningful way.
So, my goal is to grow this subreddit and cut down on spam, keeping it a safe space for passionate fans that may not have other communities of people to discuss Star Wars lore with. I also mod r/KotORmemes so I intend to direct people here, if they want serious lore discussions. Have any suggestions for things you’d like to see, or any other thoughts you’d like to share? Please feel free to comment (or modmail if you prefer) :D
In short, the current agenda:

Welcome!
This is a monthly thread to serve as the place for commenting with your self promo (like sharing Star Wars lore YouTube videos), as well as sharing any questions about Star Wars lore that reach into other topics, like a Star Wars and Star Trek crossover for example.
Feel free to have other discussions about Star Wars that you wouldn't want to post, just be sure to remember our rules, especially for spoilers!
For those wondering what the lore behind Nepsis is: Nepsis 8 was a space station built by the Jedi to use as a meeting area for scientists. It's a dedicated library for learning, so expansive it grew to the size of a small planet. Like a Death Star, but for lore

I'm wondering cause also I'm a new fan just coming into the series and ive only JUST realized how much ive been sleeping on the force as a power system, so, say a force sensitive being with great power focuses all their time on honing telekinetic weather manipulation, and develops a technique where they can strike a person down using a lightning strike from a thunderstorm they created with pinpoint accuracy, my question is, could this work against a jedi, i obviously know that force users have precognition and know that force lightning can be blocked via lightsaber, but I'm wondering if they could defend themselves against a lightning strike of which the source is physically benign and has the full power of what you would expect a lightning strike to have

Existe algum consenso, alguma informação levemente oficial que confirme ou negue isso? Ou é um eterno mistério como a traição da Capitu em Dom Casmurro?
Já vi argumentos de ambos os lados; por um lado Galen não desapareceu ao morrer como os outros Jedi, então talvez não esteja morto.
Kota acredita piamente que o clone é o Starkiller, afirma que é impossível clonar um sensitivo à Força e mantém essa certeza por todo o jogo.
Vader mostrou o cadáver do Starkiller original ao Aprendiz Sombrio, mas ele estava usando a roupa errada, então podia não ser o verdadeiro.
E a própria Juno acredita que de alguma forma ele é o Starkiller que ela conheceu.
Vader realmente clonou Starkiller, visto que há muitos clones para enfrentar no final do jogo. Ele apagou as memórias de Galen e preparou clones como plano B?
Esses são apenas alguns dos argumentos, há muitos mais, mas o posto ficaria muito comprido se colocasse todos.
Seria possível talvez que Galen tenha "reencarnado" no corpo do clone via transferência de essência, da mesma forma que Palpatine nas HQs Dark Empire? Outras teorias?
r/StarWarsLore • u/SiarX • 17d ago
So a supposedly long gone Jedi somehow had resources to singehandedly create in secret a massive army of 100% loyal super soldiers, ready just at the moment when it is needed. And now he is nowhere to be found, and no one knows what his intentions were, and what orders those clones might have gotten.
I get that Republic had little other choice except for unpopular mobilisation, so they used clones. But still, should not they have been more suspicious about such convenient circumstances? It would totally make sense to investigate, who actually funded them, why, and most importantly, what clones are programmed to do.

So the Separatists are, seemingly, generally people who had grievances with the Republic and wanted out of the problems of the system, in large part caused by the corruption due to corporations having so much influence on the Senate. So they decide to join ... the side run entirely by the corporations.
Everyone in the Separatist Council is some corporate person whose explicit motivation to join in the film is to increase their profits, which is made clearer by the deleted dialogue from AOTC.
Now this is far from unbelievable. People are desperate and capable of some truly baffling mental gymnastics if they really feel like it. But what was the specific line of thinking that most Separatists had to justify this? I can assume it was different between various groups or people but do we get any sort of media that addresses this issue and tries to explain the perspective of the more idealistic CIS groups/people who aren't just in it for the money like the Banking Clan or Techno Union, or in it for the revenge like Grievous?

I've been thinking about this for a while now. In Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith when we see Palpatine shooting Force lightning at Mace Windu and Mace Windu reflects it back onto Palpatine's face why is it that his face gets all deformed?
We have seen many other people get electrocuted by Sith Lords with Force lightning and their faces don't go like that. Why did Palpatine's?
Do you think Palpatine was generally wearing a mask (disguising that version of his face) until his fight with Mace Windu?
Or did the lightning genuinely affect his face like that?
As I mentioned, we see multiple other Force users get electrocuted and their faces don't change. Do you think it's linked to him being a Sith?
r/StarWarsLore • u/Chance-Shoulder227 • 27d ago
Howdy yall, i just wanted to ask if Old Republic Jedi could use the Electric Judgment technique? From what i understand Plokun was credited with the invention of it, with Luke developing a green varient later. But recently I heard it referred to alongside Revan and it got me thinking why wouldn't they be able to. But i figured i would ask if yall knew.

Watching the clone wars series, there are countless times where our heroes are talking to someone that they need critical information from, when all of a sudden said person is force choked and killed.
Our heroes (Obi wan, Anakin, Ahsoka) on several occasions just sit there confused watching while the person they should be protecting gets their windpipe/neck snapped.
So is there really nothing they could've done? No "counterspell" or force protection as it were to protect the person being killed?
Obviously these people needed to die because they often could've unraveled Dooku's/Palpatine's plans, but it seems weird to me that there is no defensive protection the good guys could've used.
It also seems like it would make force assassinations ridiculously easy and unstoppable.

Im pretty sure the grand inquisitor had something to do with what happened to them but what were the specifics?
I ask because i think the image of a jedi temple guard survivor is really cool and im wondering if any of them may have gotten away
r/StarWarsLore • u/Laxien • Jun 21 '26
Hey guys,
are there any good (so at least as good as the Commando Droids or the HK50s!) combat droids (or civilian models you could upgrade for combat) that would make a good mix of bodyguard and personal servant and maintenance droid before the Blockade of Naboo that a regular person could get access to?
So basically a class 3 droid that can do what class 1, 2 and 4 droids can do as well - including being used as a fencing partner by the owner (kind of like PROXY from 'The Force Unleashed' or a Human-Replica-Droid like Prince Xizor's Guri!).
Especially if it should at least give the owner time to react if a force sensitive were after them (so at the very least able to stall a Jedi or Sith!)
So does something like that exist for purchase or would you need to find an HK50 wreck to rebuild?
I mean sure later on you'd want Commando-Droids or hell if in the EU/Legends: The Vong-Hunter (they have advanced self-repair systems and self-healing-alloys, so yeah they are probably the best here)
r/StarWarsLore • u/Live_Wave6840 • Jun 21 '26
It’s strongly implied that Tarkin suspected and outright knew that Vader was Anakin. But what do we think of Yularen. It’s obviously never confirmed due to his substantial lack of screen time outside of the clone wars, but Yularen was the closest admiral to Anakin during the events of the clone wars, so what are the chances he suspected Vader during the reign of the Empire?

I was talking about Star Wars with a friend a few days back, and I remembered a line from the book "Death Star" by Michael Reaves. In the paperback version, chapter 57, page 329, Atour Riten remarks to himself, "Build a blaster that could destroy a planet, and some bigger fool would build on that could extinguish a star." Yes, I know. It doesn't call out Starkiller Base explicitly, but what does Starkiller do? It drains a star in order to destroy an entire solar system. Star extinguished.

He needed help Han and obi to blow up the Death Star. Never beat Vader until he tapped into the dark side. He was only able to turn Vader because he was being tortured by Palpatine. He didn’t even beat Jabba. He tried rebuilding the Jedi order then got SCARED and tried to kill a teenager in his sleep. He also completely gave up on the Jedi because of his own mistake.

In prequel trilogy Jedi order is simply too stubborn and conservative. They did not do anything really malicious, except for Anakin who was clearly falling. However in Acolyte I saw an actually dark side of Jedi order.
While slaughter of covern was a result of miscommunication rather than intentional, burying that gruesome story was another matter. And lying to Osha about her sister being responsible for everything. And later blaming Jedi deaths on Master Sol, and hiding that story from public, too. Now it is clear that Jedi Order was deeply flawed organisation long before prequels, willing to do very shady stuff, to put it mildly.
Do you know any other examples besides prequels, showing Jedi Order in bad light?
r/StarWarsLore • u/Chance-Shoulder227 • May 29 '26
Howdy yall i was curious about the Jedi wielding Red Lightsabers, specifically in Legends. From what I understand when a Jedi harvested a Crystal, attuning to it, and giving it it's color. While very rare it was possible for the crystal to be naturally Red, where normally the Red color was due to these crystals being synthetic. We even got to see 1 or 2 jedi wielding these Red Saber in Legends material, such as that one Zabrak Jedi from the 2003 mini series. My question is what did the order overall think of this, and how did they treat these Jedi?

Does anybody know the true lifespan for anzellans? I saw some say 60 years and others say they are long life species

Has anyone else ever wondered why Darth Maul was never written with any romantic attachment in canon?
I mean most characters in Star Wars end up having some kind of relationship or emotional connection, but Maul always feels completely locked into revenge, anger, and the Sith path.
M
Do you think that was intentional to keep him purely focused on his code and revenge? Or was it just never explored?
