Talk:Jacen Solo

message: Yes folks! It turns out that Tenel Ka had given birth to his daughter in the newly released Star Wars Dark Nest book, The Unseen Queen. People around the internet are now talking about it! However, that child is still unnamed. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 219.94.62.3 (talk • contribs) .
Hmm... can anyone say dark side? Jacen is ashamed of his daughter, and erases his cousin's memory to keep her a secret... tsk tsk. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.236.250.141 (talk • contribs) .

replies: text: Awhile ago, that may have been proper; however, the books themselves are now explicitly raising the issue. Stilgar135 02:25, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Addendum- the section isn't just about whether or not he's stronger than Luke. It's about his entire character, how it's changed and Jacen's relationship with the rest of the Jedi order. The title was presumably chosen because it sounds snazzy and is one of the central questions raised in the section, though not the only one. Stilgar135 05:37, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Why don't we change the title to something like "Abilities" or something? Mwsilvabreen 22:17, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I think the current title encapsulates the section as well as anything could. The crux of much of the Star Wars story post-Traitor is Jacen's disillusionment with Jedi tradition and his conviction that he can do better. His belief that he will be stronger than Luke and that he will finally save the galaxy is one of the driving forces behind his character, perhaps the most important one. Further, the section also talks about fan controversy over Jacen, much of which is based in power comparisons. Stilgar135 02:48, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

text: I have to agree with stilgar. The books are starting to explicitly state the case that Jacen is rivaling Luke in power and will soon surpass him. Even Mara is becoming aware of this in the second half of "Tempest". I'm looking for the legacy series to really shake some things up seeing that the Original Characters are getting too old to have any realistic impact. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.11.132.221 (talk) 05:42, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

text: There is a part that blatantly states that Luke Skywalker is as powerful as Anakin Skyalker would have become had he not lost most of his flesh on Mustafar. This can't be correct purely because before his ascension to Sith Mastery (in Sacrifice), Lumiya stated that he could not best Luke in a fight (albeit a lightsaber duel... but regardless...) Yet at the same time we have someone stating that Jacen as a Sith Lord will be ALMOST as strong as Vader should have been... it just seems like some bad roundabout thinking... and really speculatory, as well. I reccomend getting rid of most of it. While it is irrefutable that Luke Skywalker is currently the strongest Jedi, there has been little said for or against Jacen's own power... ps. I hate his Sith name... I was hoping it would have meaning, but it turns out that it was just junk.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.69.176.163 (talk • contribs) 
I found this statement in here: 
"It should be further noted that in Lucas' version of The Star Wars Universe that The Sith were destroyed when Darth Vader saved the life of his son Luke Skywalker thus fulfilling The Prophecy of The Chosen One, therefore the Sith never truly returned and Jacen is actually a Dark Jedi."
This is wrong. Anakin did destroy the Sith line that he and the Emperor were part of, but the Sith are not a hereditary lineage, but followers of an idea, and ideas cannot be destroyed. The Prophecy of the Chosen One involved bringing balance to the Force. It has been favoring the Dark Side at that point, and Anakin brought it back to a light or neutral slant with his sacrifice. So I removed that incorrect statment. Simon Beavis
did anyone read Inferno? Luke practically destroyed Jacen in a lightsaber duel on the Anikan Solo while saving Ben Skywalker
I read it. Jacen had basically defeated Luke and was about to deliver the death blow when Ben stabbed Jacen in the back. The "practically destroyed" part of your statement should be rephrased "practically lost".  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.79.11.122 (talk) 23:12, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

message: How is he a time traveler? As far as I've seen, time travel seems impossible in the galaxy Mwsilvabreen 01:35, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm assuming it's because he's able to project back through time and observe historical events as they're happening. Stilgar135 03:21, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Must have missed that part. When does he do that? Mwsilvabreen 01:39, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: In the first Dark Nest book, he sees Raynar crashing the Tachyon Flyer and pulling Lomi and Welk from the wreckage. In the second LoTF book, he sees the massacre at the temple through Anakin's eyes, and appears to gain some sort of empathy from it- though I'm not sure if this is a direct effect of the time travel or just indicative of his fucked-up mindset. As far as we know, this can only be done when he's at the location where the event happened and needs to have a very specific idea of what he wants to do. Still, the category doesn't define time travel, so I'd say that this qualifies by default. Stilgar135 03:22, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Length of Later Sections 

message: I suggest merging the article into Solo family, since it doesn't really have enough independent notability to stand out on its own. I had a quick look, but I didn't get that many sources:
*IGN's "Top 100 Star Wars Characters". Comes out #17.
*Also from IGN, "Top Star Wars Villains: Fan Favorites".
*UGO this time, "Top 50 Star Wars Expanded Universe Characters". Comes out #1, which is nice.
There's some potential there, but I don't think that's really enough for an article. – Bellum  (talk) 02:39, 23 February 2013 (UTC)

This implies Jacen is Luke's son.
