Talk:Obi-Wan Kenobi/Legends

Where does this planets of Obi-Wan's youth come from? Hopefully not Supershadow... QuentinGeorge 06:23, 18 May 2005 (UTC)


 * Upon further inspection, it did come from SS. Removed. Imperialles 21:20, 18 May 2005 (UTC)

What's the proof that Obi-Wan was born 57 BBY? I remember that the timeline of Behind the Magic put Obi-Wan's birth to 60 BBY. - TopAce
 * But that was a program made before the prequel trilogy, and more recent figures are supposely more accurate. -- Riffsyphon1024 20:40, 17 Jul 2005 (UTC)
 * Obi-Wan is 25 in TPM. (as the official databank states). Alec Guinness was 62 during the filming of ANH, so the figure isn't that far off. (and as a sidenote, McGregor was 26 when they filmed TPM it's AOTC and ROTS which have the greatest actor-character age discrepancy). QuentinGeorge 04:35, 20 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Improvement Drive

I'm not sure in what piece of "Young Obi-Wan literature" it's featured, but isn't Obi-Wan's relationship with Siri Tachi worthy of more than a simple mentioning of her name in his page?
 * Definately. It's mentioned in the Legacy of the Jedi/Secrets of the Jedi duology. 59.167.63.130 21:05, 23 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Accent
Where is it mentioned he spoke with a coruscanti accent? - TopAce 23:23 (GMT +1), 23rd August
 * ROTS novel. QuentinGeorge 21:32, 23 Aug 2005 (UTC)
 * Basically, anyone who speaks with a "British" accent (ie Palpatine, Ki-Adi-Mundi, etc) is considered in the GFFA to have a Coruscanti accent. QuentinGeorge 21:32, 23 Aug 2005 (UTC)
 * The novel mentions his 'clipped Coruscanti accent' a couple of times, and I think other sources have mentioned it too - Kwenn

Born on Tatooine

 * The Star Wars Timeline Gold, which cites the Star Wars Roleplaying Game Core Rulebook, claims Obi-Wan was born on Tatooine, though this article says he was born on a planet of "plains and grasslands." I was just getting ready to add Tatooine to the template when I noticed it. So is there an explanation for this or is it just a simple contradiction among sources? MarcK 05:13, 1 Sep 2005 (UTC)
 * The Tatooine is from outdated pre-TPM EU Material. The "grassy plains" is the only description of his homeworld. You might retcon the Tatooine "homeworld" reference as being his post-ROTS "adopted" home. QuentinGeorge 05:49, 1 Sep 2005 (UTC)
 * The planet of "plains and grasslands" is from his memories in the Jedi Apprentice series. QuentinGeorge 10:05, 1 Sep 2005 (UTC)

Kenobi's Blade

 * In the YJA book with the above name, didn't Anakin Solo recover Obi-Wan's lightsaber? Can anyone confirm? QuentinGeorge 07:05, 7 Sep 2005 (UTC)
