Darth Maul. He was the teaser that was thrown out there before the prequels to make you think they might actually be good. Too bad it didn’t pan out that way. He was bad-ass though. A one man Sith killing machine. It made you think that Palpatine actually knew what he was doing at one time. ---

The “Hold your fire, there’s no life forms” guy. Single handedly destroyed the Empire to save a few megajoules of turbolaser energy, and avoid an extra line in his after action report. ---

Either Boba Fett or Darth Maul. I notice no one has chosen Jar Jar Binks. ---

> [@silenus](#): > > Grand Admiral Thrawn. Or maybe Captain Pellaeon. Oh, definitely. The only reason I didn’t put those two is because there’s so much competition between the characters I like for being awesome (hell, the _Lusankya_, a completely nonsentient spaceship is also on that list) while Lorana is the only one I can think of that’s one of my favourites simply because I empathise with the character. ---
