i like making lists
Dec. 14th, 2010 08:01 pmSo I'm going to make some Top 10 lists.
My first list is my list of favorite SWEU characters, 'cause I was thinking about it the other day. Feel free to join me if you'd like.
Top 10 Favorite EU characters
1. Mara Jade Skywalker
Duh.
2. Talon Karrde
He is the Most Interesting Man in the Galaxy.
3. Corran Horn
He has an ego the size of Corellia, but I love him anyway.
4. Anakin Solo
The one who shouldn't have died. :( I loved what they were doing with his character, and then *poof*.
5. Gilad Pellaeon
The first Imperial I ever liked.
6. Thrawn
Obviously. The Thrawn Trilogy made him intimidating. Outbound Flight made him fascinating.
7. Mirax Terrik Horn
She's feisty and tough and the only woman who could put up with Corran's ego. I want a Mara/Mirax book, like, NOW.
8. Wedge Antilles (he counts as an EU character because the bulk of his storyline comes from the EU)
If you don't love Wedge Antilles, you're a dirty stinking Sith.
9. Face Loran
What's not to love? Funny, dreamy, and just all-around awesome.
10. Nomi Sunrider
Nomi goes on my list for purely nostalgic reasons. The first comics I ever read were the Tales of the Jedi comics. KJA notwithstanding, I still really enjoyed the story, and really felt for Nomi's character. I really hope that the Nomi Sunrider novel happens, because I can't wait to read more about her.
Top 5 Characters I Loooooooove to Hate:
1. Nom Anor
Screw Shimmra, Nom Anor was the standout villain of the New Jedi Order series. I couldn't stand him, but he was so damn interesting.
2. Borsk Fey'lya
Who doesn't love a good game of "Kick the Bothan"?
3. Viqi Shesh
What a pathetic piece of Kuati trash.
4. Ysanne Isard
Iceheart was one cold-hearted bitch. And she looked cool.
5. Jorus C'baoth
I wanted to throttle him while reading Outbound Flight. What. An. Ass. But fascinating, especially after you know what happens with his clone.

Date: 2010-12-15 04:04 am (UTC)Anakin Solo would be the top of my list for favorites, but other than that, I think it would be hard to come up with 9 other characters.
Nom Anor was very interesting, but I think that's because he had a great arc that lasted, erm, how many books? Most of the other baddies have a one-shot. And they've done a hell of a job screwing up the "baddies" in other books we shall not mention.
I think you should do a "top" list for things you'd change about the EU. :D
