Continuity[]
- The book states that Anakin studied Form IV of lightsaber combat, while in all other sources, Anakin is a practitioner of Form V.
- Barriss Offee's tattoos are erroneusly stated to be from Chalactan nature. The MedStar Duology, however, correctly stated that her tattoos were from Mirialan nature.[2]
- Elan Sel'Sabagno is shown with ears while in the film he has antennapalps. While Sel'Sabagno originally had ears in the film, these were later removed by Industrial Light & Magic according to Pablo Hidalgo, thus retconing his appearance in the film. Anyway, the Sel'Sabagno toys were released with ears instead of antennapalps.[3]
- As in some early scripts for the film, Jamillia's name was spelled as "Jamilla".[4]
- Rune Haako is named Gilramos Libkath.
- Zam Wesell's gender, as with most other guidebooks, was listed as "unknown". However, her Databank entry confirmed that she was female.[5] Furthermore, the comic book one-shot Star Wars: Zam Wesell clarified that Wesell was "sometimes" female due her condition of Clawdite.[6]

The proper Elan has no ears. Reference photography didn't have this digital alteration. Toys had a running change to remove his ears." (screenshot)
