Star Wars/Characters/New Jedi Order and Legacy Eras: Difference between revisions

* [[Beware the Nice Ones]]

* [[Deadpan Snarker]]: She has her moments, espically when dealing with a [[Jerkass|rude security officer]]:

'''Cilghal''': "Two things. First, my name is not Fish-Head. It is Master Cilghal. Second, I am not in your way. That is a logistical impossibility. I am less than a meter wide. The entryway where we stand and the doorway behind me are several meters wide. I now leave it as an exercise of your alleged intelligence to find a way into the Temple. If you do a very good job, perhaps we will name the test after you." }}

* [[Hidden Badass]]: Before ''[[Fate of the Jedi|Backlash]]'', we had never seen Cilghal in a fight. When she is confronted by Jedi Knight Sothias Saar, who had just succumbed to Force psychosis, she [[Curb Stomp Battle|squashes him in about five seconds]]. Chief of State Daala is surprised when she sees the footage, but realizes that Cilghal is a Jedi Master for a reason.

* [[Career Killers]]: For one book, anyway; he has the skill, but not the temperament.

* [[Chick Magnet]]: Is it a unspoken rule for all Skywalker males to be this at some point of their lives?

'''Luke''': ''There, that's the Skywalker survival instinct at work.'' }}

* [[Dating Catwoman]]: With Vestara. They [[Call Back|sit and exchange jokes]].

* [[Dead Guy, Junior]]

* [[Deadpan Snarker]]

'''Rhondi''': ''That's'' nice. ''(turns to Luke)'' If you want grandchildren someday, you need to have a conversation with your son about how to talk to the ladies. }}

* [[The Empath]]: Unlike his mother, he simply cannot shut himself off emotionally unless under extreme duress. Also part of the reason why he refused to touch the Force as a young child; the psychic backlash from the deaths during the Vong War was too painful. The other part? That would be [[Eldritch Abomination|A]][[Nightmare Fuel|b]][[Go Mad From the Revelation|e]][[Names to Run Away From Really Fast|l]][[Ancient Conspiracy|o]][[Death World|t]][[One-Winged Angel|h]].

 

* [[Badass Boast]]: One that has yet to be equaled in the EU:

Nom Anor: "[[You're Insane!|You're insane]]!" <br />

Ganner: "No. I am Ganner. This threshold is mine. I claim it for my own. Bring on your thousands, one at a time or all in a rush. I don't give a damn. None shall pass." }}

* [[Hannibal Lecture]]: Noted here, because it's practically her hobby. Extends to her [[Inner Monologue|Inner Monologue's]].

* [[Heel Face Revolving Door]]: Over the course of the [[Fate of the Jedi]] books, she betrays both Sith and Jedi, several times over. [[Discussed]] by Luke and Jaina:

** She ultimately settles on {{spoiler|Heel}}.

* [[The Ishmael]]: She's the only Lost Tribe Sith whose POV we see with any regularity.

* {{spoiler|[[You Can't Go Home Again]]:}} At the end of Vortex, {{spoiler|after she kills Taalon, who was "too high above her station", Vestara can't risk going back to the tribe, and willingly stays with Luke and Ben}}.

* [["Well Done, Son" Guy|Well Done Daughter Girl]]: Ben mocks her for this:

** {{spoiler|[[Self-Made Orphan|It's not gonna happen. She kills her father, and her mother also dies.]]}}
