Star Wars: The Old Republic/WMG: Difference between revisions

Line 28:

Satele Shan is already suspected to be a descendant of Revan and Bastila, but there may be other reasons that the canonical genders of the two KOTOR protagonists are different. Two former comrades in arms fighting a hopeless battle together... If this is the case each class would have their own backstory as to how the descendant of two powerful Jedi ended up with the Sith, as a smuggler or a bounty hunter, etc. Even the non-Force Sensitive classes could be latently gifted and unknowingly calling on the Force to be the best of the best. And isn't [[Luke, I Am Your Father|surprising parentage]] a classic Star Wars plot point?

* This would contradict the implication in KOTOR 2 that the exile was opposed to Revan's fall, though. She was put in charge of the action where he sent all the dissenters to get killed. Doesn't mean it isn't true, of course.

* The idea is the Exile fell for the new Revan that resulted from the events of KOTOR (canonically light-side) and they became a couple when she joined him in fighting the True Sith after the second KOTOR game.

* Jossed: Official novels make it clear that Revan left a pregnant Bastilla behind, and never had further children before {{spoiler|being trapped by the Sith Emperor.}}

Line 42:

== Darth Malgus is the [[Big Bad]] for both sides ==

Darth Malgus has good reasons to attack and destroy both sides. The Republic, because it’s his destiny. The Empire, because he’s sick of the political games of the Emperor and the Dark Council. Also he currently conquers new territory in the Unknown Regions. Revan led a fleet into the Unknown Region and came back as an enemy who almost destroyed the Republic. Will Darth Malgus lead a fleet into the Unknown Region and come back as an enemy who almost destroys the Republic and the Sith Empire?

* '''Confirmation status''': {{spoiler|Confirmed to an extent; He serves as the final boss for the last flashpoint available to both factions}}.

Line 59:

== The Voss are no better than the Gormak. ==

The Gormak are apparently [[~~Always Chaotic~~ Evil]], while the Voss are totalitarian. Once the chips are down, it'll turn out that the Voss are basically the Chiss [[Up to Eleven]] with religious undertones, and can be just as bad, even worse than the Gormak.

The Gormak are apparently [[Exclusively Evil]], while the Voss are totalitarian. Once the chips are down, it'll turn out that the Voss are basically the Chiss [[Up to Eleven]] with religious undertones, and can be just as bad, even worse than the Gormak.

* '''Confirmation status''': {{spoiler|The Voss and Gormak are divergent evolutions of the same source species. The species was forked by the Jedi, who altered the Voss in a long forgotten war with the Sith on Voss before recorded history. The Voss aren't thrilled when they find out that their war is a planetary family feud.}}

Line 84:

== Janarus will get overthrown and replaced by one of his political rivals ==

Garza and Saresh are his main rivals, and I doubt they'd just have that as trivia-type info.

* '''Confirmation Status''': {{spoiler|Jossed. Janarus is either assassinated or resigns during the final chapter of the Bounty Hunter's story. Governor Saresh does take his place though.}}

== Novel characters will appear in the game ==

Notably, Eldon Ax, Moxla, Ula, and so on.

* Confirmed to some extent. Characters from the Comics like Darth Baras, Braden, and Tenel Kal have appeared in the game, although many of them have been redesigned both in terms of their role in the story, and their appearance. Characters from Threat of Peace suffered particularly hard here; Darth Baras has put on a lot of weight, and Braden is a lot older than he was in the comic. Satele's relationship with Taavus is also questionable.

Line 124:

== The Entity in the Sith Warrior storyline is Darth Traya ==

The Entity's codex entry states she nearly wiped out the Jedi Order centuries prior to TOR. Additionally the Entity is an accomplished Seer{{spoiler|, hence why Baras enslaves her to further his plans to usurp the Emperor.}} However she mentions her resting place was disturbed, which is odd given Darth Traya's body was supposed to have been destroyed along with Malachor V.

Line 154:

This is a conclusion I made after I played every class Light Side. It will be just like the two Germanys, where one adopt the structure of the other and reunify. Made easier by the fact, that [[Big Bad|the current Head of State of the Empire]] wants to [[Kill Them All|KILL EVERYONE]]. The resulting [[Enemy Mine]] between the eight protagonists would be a logical consequence (especially the light siders).

* Sure as hell explains why the Republic is shown to use the Sith Empire logo in the prequels...

** The Republic also uses aesthetically similar Star Destroyers in the prequels that the Sith Empire uses.

* There is one major obstacle standing in the way of this possibility: The Sith. They've been planning revenge against the Jedi Order for millenia now, and they're unlikely to give it up just like that. They might temporarily ally with the Republic to eliminate the Emperor, but that won't last past his death.

* From the looks of some leaks and recent new content, {{spoiler|the Empire is beginning to reform by being more accepting of non-humans. While this doesn't get rid of the Sith and a lot of Imperials will not like this reformation, it at least takes away one of the biggest reasons many of the remaining non-Force-users opposed the Republic}}. Most likely, the Sith will be deposed by non-Force-users when, either through the Dark Council or Emperor, the non-Force-users efforts are roadblocked and/or no longer feel a need to oppose the Republic.

== Quorian Dorjis will play a prominant part in the future storylines of both Sith classes ==
