Luke Skywalker and the Shadows of Mindor (+1)
"Lando Calrissian walked down the ramp of his personal command shuttle looking every inch the general he was, from the millimetrically level brim of his gleaming cap to the subtly iridescent uppers of his similarly gleaming boots. The elegantly close-fitting jumpsuit he wore was also subtly iridescent, so that its powder-blue sheen could pick up complementary highlights from whatever environment he might find himself in—because a gentleman and an officer must never, ever clash—and it fit as if it had been designed for him, which, of course, it had. He'd designed it himself. Thrown over one shoulder he carried his custom belt-length uniform jacket—jet black, naturally, because black goes with everything—which he'd commissioned after being reliably informed that Ackbar and Republic Command would absolutely draw the line at an opera cape."

- The initial description of Lando Calrissian in Luke Skywalker and the Shadows of Mindor

For

 * 1) Classic Lando; gotta love the guy.--Darth Praxus- Stover Lover 21:23, September 21, 2009 (UTC)
