RoS - Visual Dictionary

A few interesting tidbits...

*It does seem to make the distinction that Snoke was independent from Palpatine to an extent, but was still, obviously, a puppet:
"Snoke has tested Kylo Ren's worthiness as a disciple, and unbeknownst to all, his capacity to inherit the Sith legacy. Snoke is no Sith, but his role has been designed by the Sith Eternal cultists to act as a final crucible, to groom and mold Kylo Ren into a master not only of attack, but also cunning."

*It mentions multiple times that Palpatine(as we know him) was in fact killed at the battle of Endor, and implies that he was resurrected by the Sith loyalists through "a mixture of technology and the occult." Palpatine himself was not given his own entry in this, however.

*It mentions a few ancient Sith worlds, including:
-Moraband/Korriban
-Malachor
-Ziost
-Jaguada
-Rhelg

*It mentions a few ancient Sith Lords, including:
-Revan
-Andeddu
-Tanis
-Tenebrous
-Phobos
-Desolous

*It mentions a few factoids from the ancient Jedi texts(written by Jedi Master Odan-Urr), which describe the "Chain Worlds Theorem", also known as The World Between Worlds, or Vergence Scatter. Has a "Phases of Mortis" solution, which solves Master Thorpe's "unsolvable" Hyperspace plotting conundrum. Etc.

I'm sure there's more I'll come across, but that's what stood out after my first skim through...

So Ziost and Revan are canon again? I guess a KOTOR trilogy is inevitable now. Can't wait to see how they'll ruin it.

They really can't just come up with anything new can they? I mean sure, I guess they're banking on nostalgia...though with how everything else has turned out thus far, I doubt that's gonna ride for very long.

Probably would have been better off of just making new characters and locations, either way they would be blank slates, so it's not like anything is gonna be the same other than names.

I really can't see them matching Kotor storyline or character wise...I don't know why people keep asking for some live action movie series about it...

I wonder if they're going to make Revan a woman, or if Bastila is going to be changed from a gifted, but brash, arrogant, easily corruptable padawan to Rey 2.0. Maybe Bastilla will solo Malak and give Revan slap on the bum in the Disney version.

I really like these Visual Guides as I have I think all of them. I ordered my Rise of Skywalker one on Amazon this morning.

The have a lot of neat info not found anywhere else.

Whatever they do with them, they can never be a match for Prime Palpatine.

Spoiler:
He had ALL of Their Power

I was just surprised by the amount of Legends material it canonized... And it also mentions events from Vader Immortal, and Battlefront II.

Very strange for a Visual Dictionary. ..

Interesting. Thanks for sharing

^Really? That’s be cool, I love the actor. Aniway, interesting, they canonized a lot of stuff. I’m glad that cool characters like Revan aren’t lost in the Legends Continuity

No way. Keanu is great but he's too old. Revan is supposed to be 38 during the events of KOTOR. Keanu is 55.

That's kinda what I inferred from the movie. Nice to finally have an actual explanation though. Ridiculous that they had to explain it in a book

In fact, that first battle was supposed to be taking place on the grounds of Vader's Castle, as one Wayfinder was Vader's, and the other was(obviously) Palpatine's.

Also, the entry for the Knights of Ren fleshes out every member(and their weaponry) quite a bit.

Also mentions that they would have been prime candidates for Inquisitors back in the Imperial days.
