Tag: as is bloodthirsty force sensitive warlord who talked the jedi order into teaching him only to be defeated by them

Maybe it’s just my “too good to be true” radar pinging, but I really hope this Tar Vizla guy turns out to be a legend that evolved out of control, or a loser with a knack for building lightsabers but no combat ability or something. There’s gotta be a twist. Every myth has a footnote or twelve attached to it, and there’s no way that little tall tale went down without some sort of catch, whether it was him getting assassinated by his own people, dying an undignified death, or being an actual monster, or what have you. At the very least existing in the middle of the Mandalorian/Jedi conflict opens up a lot of room for moral ambiguity and failure, and the fact that his sword ended up with the Order but his family stole it back is… telling.
