@shootingnova@amethystgravity@azronger@zapan871@darthfallax@emperordmb@ricochicomalico@radioactivehaggis New RT... Next up is Sedriss.

Nice. He seems to be one of the strongest ancient Jedi, tbh.

Just out of curiosity, who's else on your list.. I'm curious as to who else you have in mind doing. I'd love to see possibly some TOR Sith or New Era Sith.

Awesome thread! I'm not sure how else to describe a guy who takes a supernova and tells Exar Kun to go bother someone else.

Nice. Him, Thon and Vodo were the most interesting Jedi of the time imo.

Thanks. And when he's drawing on the power of Ossus, yeah... he is.

Sedriss is on there, definitely. Tenel Ka, Tahiri Vaila, (scratch that, someone is making those, already) Lord Nyax, UnuThul are also possible candidates. Also something special regarding the Vong :)

Thanks. And he did that by drawing on the power of Ossus itself, but still pretty badass.

Thanks, and I very much agree. Thon, in particular, fascinated me.

@wollfmyth209: I'm still trying to figure out how he became a master of lightsaber combat, probably through telekinesis like Traya.

How would you rank him in comparison to Jedi of later era, like the PT trilogy?

Thon or Ood? Thon, I'd rank, probably within the ranks of the B-team, at least. Above Jinn, as well, overall.

Ood is hard to rank since all of his showings are due to drawing on Ossus' core, but he's pretty up there as well, or is implied to be... So not quire sure.

@wollfmyth209: Damn, was hoping you say: Darth Nox/Empire's Wrath/Lumina/Darth Caedus/Darth Krayt. Maybe even Naga Shadow. :)

Hopefully you come around. Lo!

Nice, just one thing to add. His fight with Sedriss was described as great which is further proof they're at least close to each other.

I meant Thon, and really? That low? I think his knowledge alone deserves him a spot comparable to Mace being capable of creating Force Storms and draining life along with containing all the dark side energies on Ambria which was greater than that of Naga Sadow's ship.

All of dem fuggs have an RT, though... Besides Caedus, who's RT is in the making.

Was gonna add that, actually. Should be useful, thanks.

@juiceboks: I meant Thon, and really? That low? I think his knowledge alone deserves him a spot comparable to Mace being capable of creating Force Storms and draining life along with containing all the dark side energies on Ambria which was greater than that of Naga Sadow's ship.

Since when is he capable of creating Storms? I think the accolade of "knowing every power" refers to the Jedi powers. Force Storms are exclusively Dark Side. Draining life even Quinlan Vos can do, and he subdued Ambria over the course of decades and it was still a potent nexus.

And was Ambria greater than Naga Sadow's ship, because that thing can amplify anyone "a thousand fold", or something...

In any case, fodder Council members like Yarael Poof are containing planetary level explosion and sh!t, so... yeah as an overall combatant, Thon doesn't strike me as comparable to Mace. There is a fine distinction between raw power and combative skill, as well, I would say.

Nice stuff dude.

@wollfmyth209:

And was Ambria greater than Naga Sadow's ship, because that thing can amplify anyone "a thousand fold", or something...

No, but it was greater than the energy of solar flares. Btw, that was the fallible opinion of scholars, albeit written in an objective context.

Wow....More Hype for this era that I am potentially going to adopt......Love it!

Good.

Very well done good sir! Gotta love a good Tales from the Jedi RT!

Thanks, and yes, respectively.

Thank you. :)

Incredible!

Thank you.

Neato.

Thank you.

Good work.
