The ssi-ruuvi paddle beamers shot ion blasts, therefore the could not be absorbed or properly deflected by lightsabers(a pure energy beam) The blasts had the effect of bending around the sabers.

abespam Posted April 12, 2005 Share Posted April 12, 2005 Who were the jedi masters that went out on Outbound Flight I was waiting for this as well, cos im sure its not mentioned in survivor's quest. Are you sure you read it, cos the no. of jedi masters that were on the flight was still a discrepancy until the blurb for outbound flight came out. Name 2 characters that wore a deaths head mask.... hint : one is from a game I know the non-game character, but ive been warned for posting half answers in the SW Saga Trivia Thread, . EDIT: Unless the game character is Darth Nihilus from Kotor2 The other character is Kueller from 'A New Rebellion (Man i hated that book, Wedge, "if i can just hit the one weak spot of the star destroyer", shoots laser and destroys star destroyed in one hit...WTF was that (paraphrased)) If im correct...

Naga Sadow (no H ) had his HQ on the moon of Khar Delba: Khar Shian. Pass on question, I hate coming up with questions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swphreak Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 Originally posted by Astrotoy7 Q. What are the Shadow Academy ? Who does it comprise ? References ! bonus : what were they doing during NJO tiimes ? The Shadow Academy was a training place for "Dark Jedi." Brakiss was the master of the academy, and there was a nightsister as well. The students were to be the new army for the emperor reborn or something. In the end it was all a shame and Brakiss was killed after the station self destructed. References: The Young Jedi Knights series. uhh... I would think that the academy's destruction was the end of it, but I can't remember. I do remember that there were former Shadow Academy students held captive on the Voxyn Worldship. Q: What is Mace Windu a swordmaster at? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue Nine Posted April 13, 2005 Share Posted April 13, 2005 A. Mace Windu was a master of lightsaber style Form VII, also called Juyo/Vapaad. He was one of only two Jedi Masters to fully master the form, the other being Depa Billaba. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astrotoy7 Posted April 14, 2005 Author Share Posted April 14, 2005 ha ! Ive just noticed that you rascals missed an active question entirely, this is mainly that meddlesome jedispy's fault for jumping in with that new question no biggie.....since Rogue Nine has done another of his famous "hit and fades" there is no active question... I shall recycle the unanswered one from above Q. Did the emperor have any kids ? Name them and what happenned to them ? mtfbwya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swphreak Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 A. It's Triculus or something. It's one of the few EU I've actually not read or own. I think it's rather old as well. The Emperor got jiggy with one of his Hands and they had a freak of nature. I don't actually know 100%. Just stuff I remember reading about from a long time ago.

Just stuff I remember reading about from a long time ago. yes, Trioculus(yes, he had three eyes) dates from a time modern EU became the cohesive entity it tries to be now. This was described in a series of kids books, called the "Galaxy of Fear" Series. Trioculus wanted to rule the galaxy etc etc, ended up gettin killed Amazingly, he got a very brief mention somewhere in the NJO, cant remember where or why.... * * * Q. What were : *The World Devastator *The Sun Crusher *The Galaxy Gun which one of these was disposed of by Kyp Durron and how ?? mtfbwya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue Nine Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 A. The World Devastators were huge mobile war factories employed by the Emperor Reborn. They would literally rip planets apart with gigantic tractor beams and use the raw material as fuel and for the construction of starships and fighters. The Sun Crusher was a starfighter-sized superweapon stolen by Kyp Durron and used to destroy the Carida system. It fired a resonance torpedo into Carida's star, causing it to go supernova. Kyp eventually destroyed the Sun Crusher by flying it into a black hole. The Galaxy Gun was an Imperial superweapon that had the capacity to fire enormous projectiles through hyperspace to destroy planets. It was eventually destroyed when the Eclipse II crashed into it. It managed to fire off one last projectile which was pulled in by the planet's Byss' gravitational field, destroying that world. A) They were an X-Wing squadron from the early days of the Alliance, and were known for containing such pilots as Wes Janson and Jek Porkins. Source: Wraith Squadron. They didn't fly X-wings, as far as I know, since at the time of the Battle of Yavin, the T-65 was still a relatively new starfighter. The Tierfon Yellow Aces flew Y-wings, which makes sense, since most Y-wings seen usually have yellow markings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shok_Tinoktin Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 Hmmmm. Then the Unofficial Encyclopedia has finally let me down. Originally posted by Astrotoy7 yes, Trioculus(yes, he had three eyes) dates from a time modern EU became the cohesive entity it tries to be now.

Actually, according to the Glove of Darth Vader series (a series of 6 kids books, that are amongst the worst the EU has to offer), Trioculus was not the son of the Emperor, even though he claimed to be. The actual son of the Emperor was Triclops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astrotoy7 Posted April 15, 2005 Author Share Posted April 15, 2005 yes, I should have clarified that about the Yellow Aces... thanks Niner. I will award the triclops etc point to Shok because of the excellent pickup... * * * I cant see an active question, so here goes Q. The Carida system was mentioned above ? What is its significance ? What became of the institution that was lcoated there (and dont say it was destroyed !!)... mtfbwya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Seeker Posted April 15, 2005 Share Posted April 15, 2005 Carida was home to a stormtrooper training facility. Kyp Durron came to Carida in the Sun Crusher in search of his brother who was training as a stormie. Long story short, the Imps lied to Kyp about his bro, he shot his missiles into their sun at which point the produced his brother. Too late to do anything, but trying anyway, the sun went Nova just before Kyp could save his brother. So sad.
