    Star Wars without the expanded universe would be just another movie franchise. The expanded universe writers created a universe full of wonders with passion and enthusiasm, into their work they put their soul and in doing so they gave a soul to star wars. The expanded universe is exciting, fascinating and full of wonder and that's why it is superior to Disney's mediocrity. We have Grandmaster Luke Skywalker!

      @@Zeb0101 Taken from the EU and twisted to provide marketing in a time of society where inclusiveness and female representation is at an all time high, although the way they went about doing this was all wrong and if they had thought about it more with a detailed story, than it would've been liked more.
      Rey is extremely powerful for no reason, Finn should be paralyzed at worst or dead at best, Kylo Ren is a stupid character that might have killed the New Republics Jedi Temple, yet wields a lightsaber as if it were heavy as a sledgehammer (I know lightsabers are heavy, but if you go toe to toe with an entire fledgling jedi temple and win, you've gotta be quicker), absolutely terrible lightsaber duels that displayed no skill, and much much more.

    I knew the Charon existed (thanks to the RPG sourcebook "The Ultimate Alien Anthology") but most of the details were new. The Sorcerers of Rhand I knew from "Luke Skywalker and the Shadows of Mindor", and from the "Jedi Academy Training Manual" RPG sourcebook. The Jeby was news to me, though as you described it I was thinking "That sounds like it was made by a small child", which turned out to be more or less exactly true (although 7 is probably a little older than what most would class as "small child" )

    That was definitely a lot more obscure stuff than most "obscure SW lore" videos & lists, which tend to cover stuff from old WEG-Era source books, bad novels from the 90's (Waru seldom fails to get a mention), and crap from the Droids and Ewoks cartoons (and sometimes other 80's media too).
    And of these, I was aware of the Charon and the Sorcerers of Rhand, but not in detail.

Another is the two droid species that destroyed the Yuuzhan Vong galaxy both appear in legends, one IN Dorids and the other in the Lando trilogy

    Ive liked the story in which a Tusckan raider became a jedi and of course everything within the E.U. after return of the jedi. The war with the vong along with Jason's fall to the dark side was an amazing arc. Also events after that like Luke and his journey with his son Ben when the Mother returns and jedi start going insane.

    1.) The Jerby: It's cool that there were other contests and the like where fans got to create something to become canon. The closest thing I ever heard of before this video was that contest to pick that Jedi to be in the 2003 Clone Wars Mirco series, where the Wolf Jedi won.
    2.) The Charon: Huh, I'm guessing Brother Eye was a big fan of these guys. Now it makes so much sense why in the DC comic Future's End he converted most of Humanity into cyber spider people. LOL.
    Also, as for the obscure lore I know, compared to you Geetsly and your great network, I don't know much. The most I know are a few obscure characters here and there. Such as the Grand Moff Naomi Ddargon, who I only know of because I looked up Grand Moffs on Wookiepedia looking for a decently obscure ruthless one for a fanfic I made, and also Clone Trooper Wildfire a member of the Wolfpack that fought against the Empire, because I looked up as many Clones that either disobeyed Order 66 or we're forced to do it but realized later it was wrong and joined the fight against the Empire because I'm very interested in that stuff.

    TYVM for all your hard work. You all fill in the blanks and keep me going back to Audible to listen again for things I missed, completely. I just finished up the Fate of the Jedi series and overall I must say I am impressed with the story as a whole. Not really sure how Obi Wan was able to archive his account of the monolith encounter when they were all mind wiped. Back to you guys! However, it opened up the possibilities of furthering the spreading threat of the Sith as well as keeping the Imperial Remnants skulking about the galaxy. MOSTLY I really dig the Hapan Consortium. If you care to make a video on that story that would be cool. Telling the tragedy of the death of that great story line could help the fan base to keep the pressure on Dis to revitalize it. Spin off it. Mash it up in a blender and serve it over ice....what ever. The Jacyn-Ben-Rey conjunction by way of rape focused inbreeding of characters by Disney was shameful. Not to mention the complete exclusion of several clan Solo members. It is all cannon now so, oh well. I just really like Tenniael Ka Jo and her Rancor tooth light saber. A FING RANCOR TOOTH for a handle lightsaber with a teal colored blade got me. I mean she had to kill the thing first, right? Allana (Hapan Princess) is a seriously cool little powerhouse of a character with tons of potential, and she has a pet Nexu. (the creature that went after Padme in the pit on Geonosis in E.2). Their ships are interesting. I like the cruiser design.

    In a legends star wars book called the crystal star there was a a star circling a blackhole. The star was dead and had turned to crystal.

Only when he was far enough away could he use the force again.

    The second and the third I knew. First I didn't.
    Recognized the two I did from WEG star wars ttrpg sourcebooks. They are, imho, criminally underappreciated as lore sources considering their impact behind the scenes and their thoroughness.
    Example, when Zahn was tasked with revitalizing the brand with The Thrawn Trilogy, the company sent the rpg in response to the author's request for setting information.
    He had access to everything else, but the rpg books were laid out in a way and we're so detailed in the minutiae that they were even mentioned by the author in interviews.
    Also, random shit from them have shown up in the TV series on Disney so, I mean they're still getting referenced.

    Yeah the weird polka dot sentient from rainbow is quite a new one to me. Never heard of them. Must be annoying to have to suck your dots up everytime you laughed too hard. the kid in me chuckled a bit there.

    1st one, no I've never heard of. The latter 2, yes I have. I think it's brilliant that an 8 year old contributed to the Starwars Legendarium!! 🖖😁🤘🇨🇦
