  • Chapter 13 of Heir to the Empire, by Timothy Zahn. Adapted into a short fanfilm.
    The Rebel Alliance has destroyed the Death Star, defeated Darth Vader and the Emperor, and driven the remnants of the old Imperial Starfleet to a distant corner of the galaxy.
    Princess Leia and Han Solo are married and expecting Jedi twins. And Luke Skywalker has become the first in a long-awaited line of Jedi Knights.
    But thousands of light-years away, the last of the Emperor's warlords has taken command of the shattered Imperial fleet, readied it for war, and pointed it at the fragile heart of the New Republic....

    And here we once more see a facet of what makes Thrawn one of the greatest leaders of the Empire; he takes input from subordinates, and then adapts it into his own greater overall strategy. I'm looking forward to when he will met with the main heroes directly.
    May the 4th be with you all. And let the art of this continuing story project continue.

      One has to wonder if Thrawn already had that in mind and simply said what he said knowing Pellaeon would suggest keeping Skywalker alive temporarily just so he could boost his confidence and inspire loyalty by making it appear he was taking his suggestion when in fact he was intending to do that all along.

      He was adamant that his Empire was going to be different from Palpatine's Empire. His empire was not going to be so top heavy and could survive the death of its leaders. He would not rule through fear and would instill a spirit of cooperation. Subordinates would be killed only when necessary instead of at the whim of a Dark Lord.

      I wonder if Thrawn's Empire would have had use of what eventually became the Imperial Knights, or Imperial Jedi. Neither Light or Dark users, firm but not evil or overly indulgent, capable of handling themselves and devoted to their leader above all else.

A gifted, unique, & worthy adversary. It's a shame he was killed off in the Legends continuity. It's be awesome if we could see more of him in the Star Wars films or tv shows. He has a unique cunning habit of keeping you guessing on what he's gonna do next. That's Grand Admiral Thrawn for you!

      It’s easy to forget how eerie his eyes are when reading the books, and it’s an aspect I REALLY hope they include in live action. It did make me internally chuckle a little when he stood over Jorj Car’das in the dark in Outbound Flight. Oh that would give me a damned heart attack. Just imagining waking up to disembodied glowing red eyes looming over you (and who tf stands over someone in the dark in their sleep? This guy’s a weird one).

      He certainly… elicits a response, which I suppose is the sign of a good character. The last thing you want is for people to not care either way about the people you’ve created. That being said, he drove me absolutely nuts when I first encountered him in Outbound Flight, and if I were Thrawn, I’d be internally screaming the entire time I had to deal with him.

    It's been or feels like it has been years since this began. My dementia mind thought to see if things had been rolling out any more. This is fantastic

    Do you have a different voice for Captain Pellaeon? He seems...gruff. Also, shouldn't the ysalamir be in a harness?

      @DarthAngelus  3 года назад

      Yeah, that's not how I normally sound. I can't keep up his gruffness for long though. It should but it's easier to make Thrawn interact with the Ysalamiri when he's holding it.

      @@DarthAngelus Oh, that was YOU! When I said a different voice, I meant a different voice actor. I always imagine the Imperial Admirals to be stiff British voices (like in the movies)
