It was actually because of one of your early videos that I decided to read fate of the Jedi. And that led me to having to go way back and start with NJO Dark Nest trilogy and legacy. It was a long road just to get to fate of the Jedi but over all very very worth it.

[@nathanielzarny1176]

Apocalypse was quite the book. Extremly confusing, very deep, and at times kinda ridiculous. Force gods that cant be killed? Planets of sith the jedi never felt? Pools of power that make you into a god? Jason's daughter basically being a new chosen one? The jedi were sick in it yeah, but it really just felt like the writers were running out of ideas to challenge god-luke

[@mpnuorva]

And that's why I hope Filoni has more sense than to bring Abeloth to canon. Not only does she contradict the nature of the Force in general, but Mortis as an archetypal representation of the Force and its dynamic in particular.

[@camarofan2008]

The one thing I disliked about Abeloth was her being connected to Mortis. If she existed outside them/the force, she would be more interesting to me personally. Make her a true lovecraftian type enemy to the force and life itself.

[@seamuswalters5990]

⁠@@camarofan2008 I agree some what with you. There should be a villain that has no motive just wants to destroy life but I don’t think abloth will be that character. I think she is a little overrated in power wise and no Star Wars character is ready for a threat that can destroy the universe. If they wanted a threat that could destroy the untire universe I would ether bring a super powerful character like the left hand god from legends or make a new super powerful god type character

[@charliesand573]

Luke's story should have ended in the Unifying Force. The goal that was originally given to Luke in the OT, to become a Jedi and pass on his knowledge, had been fulfilled. When he was poisoned by Shimrra, he either should have died or been left severely weakened. The writers trying to keep him essential to the ongoing story was part of why Legacy of the Force and Fate of the Jedi were so terrible.

It doesn’t get more mythical than that. At the end of the day not liking abbaloth doesnt matter but saying she wouldn’t or doesn’t fit into the universe is just wrong

[@Sacterheld]

They're gonna make it WOKE and SHIT.

[@infiniteethernal]

In canon I'd love a sick interaction between Abeloth and Anakin Skywalker where Abeloth takes the form of Padme Amidala. It seems like a fun way to bring back Natalie Portman, as actors typically like playing twisted different versions of characters they've played before.

[@thalastianjorus]

I can almost guarantee that, with the current climate of the writers for Star Wars - Abeloth is going to be turned into a misunderstood, tragic heroine of some sort. They will claim that all these legends were all lies. _(EDIT - Far too many people hit the word "tragic," and their brains are turning off. They stop thinking right there, and suddenly seem to feel the need to make certain that everyone knows that she DID have a somewhat tragic story. We all know this, thank you. Now then - move on to the part that I said they'd try to turn her into a heroine.)_

[@DarthFroggo]

agreed

[@tomasmen830]

I mean her story is a tragedy to begin with, with her turning into a cosmic horror all to try and be there for her family. BUT, it should end there, yeah the reason she became this abomination of nature is sad and understandable. But she’s beyond redemption now, she’s a cosmic horror that may even be the reason why there are so many wars in the galaxy.

[@afewsnakes]

Yep. No thanks. We dont have enough of the troubled antihero types? At a certain point it’s cliche, not clever. I’m baffled that I would even need to say that but evidently…

[@bidb5635]

[@JustLikeTheSimulations]

I was so unsure of them bringing her into Star Wars but it looks like it’s happening. I just hope they keep her character as it was. I don’t want them to ruin every character.

[@FrostReach66]

I always thought the description of Abeloth basically meant she looked like a female Voldemort. I like Abeloth a lot, particularly her being trapped in the Maw (not a particular fan of sinkhole or centerpoint, but whatever) on an immensely powerful force planet with force nexuses. The only issue at this point in time is where or if she’ll fit into the timeline, which it seems would be with Rey, which already has a multitude of problems with me. Abeloth’s story kind of ended Luke’s story in Legends as well (not necessarily, but EU became Legends right after this) and I definitely prefer that to current canon.

[@destoyer094]

5,000 years of war between the Jedi and Sith? That would have stretched it all the way back to the Great Hyperspace War in Legends continuity, the first OFFICIAL contact between both orders in that continuity. Of course the Sith were aware of what was outside of the Stygian Caldera because of the dark Jedi that conquered them and made the first Sith Empire, but being removed for a few millennia makes a lot of information questionable.

[@jeremykrueger7071]

I mean when you break down what her purpose and what frees her, it does seem to fit pretty nicely with some of Baylon’s speeches from season 1

[@bfin]

I wish they had allowed the writers to continue that story thread. when I finished the last book I was soo excited because the sale was rumored at the time and I was hoping that it would means more books by those writers and possibly more movies.......but alas it wasn't going to happen like that, but we got the cancelling of the EU. which I miss because the writing was really good.

I listened to all the unabridged audiobooks that I could. so I had to skip the previous series before getting to this one, but I remember her being absolutely mental. She was so absurdly powerful that it seemed like she would have just whipped the Emperor on the spot.

[@blackc1479]

Abeloth always bugged the hell out of me. And later the whole family concept. The force to me was always something that wasnt defined or discreet per se. Having someone as an avatar just seems contradictory. Kinda like the borg queen. To me, the concept was more like a river, that isnt actually sentient. It just is. You can take path A, or B, or in some cases C, D, etc. Each has their buffs and pitfalls. But theyre all different ways of tapping into the same thing.

[@mpnuorva]

Yoda calls the Force an ally in tESB, it has long been implied to have sentience. Mortis gods are not avatars of it per se thoguh. They are separate beings Lucas created to demonstrate Balance and the Two Sides and their dynamics. So of course Legends missed this and steered into something else entirely with Abeloth's creation.

[@yokingvirus]

​@@mpnuorva I dont really think of abeloth as a force avatar, but more so of an anomaly.

[@numnut154]

If they bring Abeloth back I hope they rework her backstory a bit so she isn't literally just lilith. It'd be way more interesting if her motivation was still tied to the celestials in some way, especially since they sort of "died" in the Clone Wars.

[@eds1942]

I don’t think that she become canon. I also don’t think that even Lucas totally knew what the Ones are about. They were an idea to develop a Clone Wars story arc around that he would eventually tell the team about if he ever figured out how they would work into his mythos.

Also Waru is one of the offspring of Ooradryl, which makes Abeloth, Waru’s aunt.

#askeck probably has been answered before by you and definitely in books but i don’t know the details. How quickly did Palpatine recruit Dooku to be his apprentice after Maul was killed?

I needed a lot of google searches to figure stuff out lol

[@charliesand573]

You didn't miss out on anything worth your time. Legacy of the Force is, in my humble opinion, the worst Star Wars story ever written. That includes everything Disney created, and I have a fairly low opinion of Disney Star Wars. Darth Caedus was the original "Jake Skywalker," taking a beloved character and twisting him so far out of character it completely ruined him.

[@salvatorediangelo453]

Now that Anakin is basically THE Mortis god he should be able to single handedly deal with Abeloth.

[@Levigeddon]

I think/hope that Anakin plays a key role in defeating Abeloth if she really appears in season 2. They could even use that as an excuse to not have Anakin in the sequels. He is busy, "keeping Abeloth in check".

[@Archon3960]

Funnily enough, while I do not believe Abeloth will come into the Disney Canon, there may be something similar to her. Remember Peridea? Well, turns out it was mentioned before in Fallen Order. One of the people there discovered the Dark Side, mastered it and sacrificed his entire race. His name was Kujet. A mysterious entity from the Dark Side of the Force who was a traitor to his race who happened to predate the known Galaxy and had a propensity to build temples... I don't know about you, but I see some parallels. And maybe this was the reason Baylan bailed on his apprentice in _Ahsoka._ Maybe something called him to Peridea ever since the beginning. :/ But given how Disney handles its "canon", I fear everything shall be nothing but wasted potential. B/

[@akaBoG]

I liked New Jedi Order and Swarm War was okay. I haven't tackled Fate of the Jedi - can't say why really - maybe because I know it is sort of the "end" of the Legacy novels. I wish we had unabridged ersions of the entire New Jedi Order series.

[@charliesand573]

As someone who has read them, just call the end of the NJO the end of Legends Star Wars. Everything that came after just ruined that perfect ending.

[@Everie]

I came from the future to reveal the truth for you: Abeloth will appear only in the end of Ahsoka S2 which be the final season. She'll appear travelling between the galaxies and she'll arrive at the galaxy 20 years after ep. 9, because after The Father was killed, she was ejected from the galaxy to Peridhea. She will be the main antagonist of a new trilogy directed by Filoni, that's now just a hidden project

[@mpnuorva]

In my head cannon, when Baylon enters Abeloth’s prison, he finds a young Rey. What else could explain her incredible powers, why she’s inexplicably liked by everyone she meets, and how she influences events to eliminate all force users in the galaxy aside from herself? Palpatine’s son was sent to retrieve her for experimentation, but she was too powerful to control, and he had to abandon her on Jakku. After she buried the lightsabers of the last remaining Jedi in the sands of Tatooine, she could finally revert to her true form. When an old woman asked her name, Abeloth responds gleefully, “I’m Rey… Skywalker,” before consuming the woman and going on to wreak havoc across the galaxy.

I think Anakin is training Ahsoka for something else, akin to the position of the Daughter. And maybe thats why her statue was eroded, because the force is still unbalanced, and Anakins role as the chosen one began when he died. The training he was suppose to receive on Mortis, he received on a longer path as Darth Vader, but about almost 30 years past and for the first time in galactic history, no one is doing what the father has done. So i imagine, without his influence, Abeloth grew in power. Was able to influence Baylan….maybe even Palpatine? Anakin and Abeloth might be playing 4D chess,

[@dyent]

I'm convinced that *a version* of Abeloth will be introduced. I don't think she'll be The Mother though. I think Abeloth will be a lovecraftian monster that feeds on Force energy which The Ones trapped in the Maw, that it was suppressed by all the force users drawing on the force and restricting its ability to feed, and that order 66 caused it to start awakening and trying to escape the Maw due to the massive reduction of force users - Similar to how the Rule Of Two increased the power of Sith by concentrating the dark side into 2 individuals, I think the loss of the Jedi resulted in the monster being able to draw on more of the force.

Abeloth should NOT be shown in any work of art, in movies or shows. She comes across like a force, not a being. Something of a malevolent spirit, forever haunting the Star Wars universe. A once genuine character, turned unbreakable evil. To give her form, is to limit her abilities. As I see it. Keeping her in the background, invisible but always there. The eternal threat of her becoming a physical embodiment. Worse than Darth Nihilus. More cunning than Darth Sidious. Never spoken of. Merely because of the association and fear that…if you even mention her to someone who doesn’t know she exists. She gains power…whether that’s accurate or not, is too troublesome to risk. We need more characters like Abeloth. Unspoken evils that leaves anyone who knows about her…about it. Terrified of what may happen, and those who don’t know about it…forever woefully ignorant…but better off. Like how in WH40K. You have the forces of Chaos, who grow stronger with every soul that knows about their existence. Spirit made physical, with every mention of them. The theory made flesh, which will tear you apart if you so much as visually acknowledge their potentiality.

Abeloth vs Anakin Skywalker (sith Anakin)

[@da_plug13]

In my opinion, having abeloth as the main villain of the sequel trilogy would have been much better than the return of palpatine

[@RamblingGreek]

They haven't even established thrawn as a proper main villain and they're already replacing him with this? Honestly I'm not surprised at anything at this point.

[@raycavazos8927]

Little known fact, there was also an adult holo net star named Abeloth Dengar. It's totally canon, Google it.

[@katarvitz4850]

I get the feeling writers are going to forget the difference between a villain with a tragic backstory and a tragic villain yet again. That and we'll see yet another "Jedi are evil and as bad as Sith, grey is the only good, m'kay" nonsense story.

[@apx1031]

considering they have been looking for someone to play her...shes gonna be canon in s2.

[@Scowleasy]

Abeloth will be the goddess of the Yuuzhan vong

[@TheWarmachine375]

Abeloth is gonna alter Baylon Skoll of his appearance with her phenomenal Force powers.

[@tedtalk9999]

I don’t think she has a place in Star Wars canon. Just like The acolyte controversy people are going to make a big deal about it. But this time it will be worse than the acolyte backlash because legends fans, and Canon fans will clash resulting in more division in the fanbase.

[@The_greysterofficial]

Have any else write her character, she’ll be the shell of the women she once was, but get Dave faloni on it, it’ll be straight from the source

I really liked 2/3rds of the Fate of the Jedi novels. unfortunately, one of the authors seemed to have their own ideas on what the plot should be, and was doing their own thing, which left a lot of.... not really resolved threads

[@AlexSteel-o9s]

I hope Disney does not use Abeloth that would just ruin her and the Disney Shills would try and defend the garbage that Disney shoves out. Not to mention the hypocrisy of said shills, they pretend the original canon/EU does not exist but when Disney takes a character out of legends, dumbs it down and destroys said character, the shills then act like it’s a gift sent from the heavens. Us regular fans then simply have to ‘be okay with it’ no matter how bad the show/movie is

[@forsakenFORCE45]

Welp. You’ve gone and done it. It’s time for another 41 book marathon on Audible. New Jedi Order through Fate plus Crucible.

[@Michael1777-1]

She just wanted to protect and love her family but here we go...

[@chrisclarke4665]

I never liked the idea of force gods in any form.
