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

* [[Badass]]: He kills more Yuuzhan Vong than any other Jedi during the first two years of the war. The first time he fights Yuuzhan Vong warriors, he kills two of them in two moves, when his aunt Mara had hard work to kill one.

* [[Brother-Sister Team]]

* [[Dropped a Bridge On Him]]: Killed off because of [[George Lucas]] thinking fans wouldn't be able to tell the difference between him and his granddad. Unlike Jacen, he at least gets to go out with a…

* [[Heroic RROD]]

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

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

* [[Deadpan Snarker]]

{{quote| '''Ben''': How do you feel? Better than you look, I hope.<br />

** Also, when putting up the facade of being angry at Vestara in ''Apocalypse'', he [[The Dog Bites Back|can't figure out]] why she is ''[[Domestic Abuse|actually]]'' [[What the Hell, Hero?|angry at him]].

* [[Redheaded Hero]]

* [[Shotacon]]: At the very end of Legacy of the Force.

* [[Strong Family Resemblance]]: Nearly all of his mannerisms and physical traits he inherited from Mara, and this is repeated several times throughout the novels, although official art is completely hellbent on throwing such similarities out the window…

* [[Karma Houdini]]: See above.

** [[Played With]]. {{spoiler|It looked like a subversion, what with there being a big trial about it, and all.}}

=== Gavar Khai ===

=== Traest Kre'fey ===

 

* [[Military Maverick]]

* [[Put On a Bus]]

* {{spoiler|[[Dropped a Bridge On Him]]}}

* [[Reasonable Authority Figure]]

 

* [[Asskicking Equals Authority]]

* [[Farm Boy]]

* [[Interspecies Romance]]: With Asyr Sei'lar.

* [[Anti-Villain]]: It sure tells you a lot about the Vong when their ''Josef Mengele counterpart'' is perhaps the most sympathetic of their recurring characters…

* [[Heel Face Turn]]

* [[Mad Scientist]]: Though she's not as mad as some shapers- just smarter.

* [[My Species Doth Protest Too Much]]: She averts the usual Vong fanaticism by being a skeptic and agnostic- she's open to the possibility of the gods and won't go so far as to deny them outright, but isn't exactly a devout worshipper either.
