Darth Vader's SECRET Apprentice Revealed - Star Wars Explained 

What do you guys think of Lumiya? I wonder if she'll (or a version of her) will show up in any of the films. Do you think Kylo Ren is based off Jacen Solo? Have a nice day and as always, may the force be with you!!

The Dark Side family Starkiller: the son Lumiya: the daughter Vader: Darth Daddy The Emperor: Grandpappy Palpatine

"The Star Wars Expanded Universe is a category for many stories some consider to be... non-canon." "Is it possible to learn these stories?" "Not from Mickey Mouse."

Damn, she was so secret even I didn't know about her!

How many secret apprentices did Vader have in Legends? "Yes"

"Imagine if she shows up and ends up fighting Rey.." No.. Rey would be annihilated.. we all know this.

What if Han died during Carbon freezing. Would Chewie have killed Lando? Luke pushed to dark side?

How is legends so different from the movies, the Sith and Jedi seem so much more extraordinary with their force powers. Why can't these feats be translated over to live action?

Skipped a major part: Prior to her crashing, She and Luke were in a mission where they used Tie Fighters to infiltrate the Empire. Luke git confused and shot her down.

Palpatine: you have an apprentice? Destroy him. Vader: there is another

Darth Sidious also broke that rule as well - He was already training Darth Maul as his apprentice when he himself was still apprentice to Darth Plageius.

How many secret apprentices did Vader have in legends???!!!

Recognize her, but not really that familiar with her. Seems like she's quite an underrated character

The MT-ST looks badass and seems way more practical than some of the other, more popular walkers.

All these strong and interesting female characters in the EU. Disney: Nope.

I expected starkiller

What if Luke defeated Vader on cloud city

1:45 By default, she becomes Luke's second sister

Loving the look of Lumiya & her Light whip! I'd love to see her in a movie someday! 😎🖤

Lumia survived the roku depot and Luke and Lumia dueled when she said she had killed Mara. She let Luke kill her. I’ve read the legacy of the force novels . She knew she would die.

What if Yoda had killed the Emperor? The Jedi were destroyed and hated by most of the galaxy, so a revival was unlikely

Wow this lore is way better then what Disney is doing with sw

Glad to have a video about Lumiya. She was such an interesting character, and her storyline was great.

trained with Vader at night :DDDD

Apart from Malgus, she's my favorite. Very interesting character, and like Malgus, deserved a better fate.

I bet she could return in the post-Return/Pre-Awakens period, or perhaps be recanonized into the periods between ANH to ESB or ESB to RotJ similar to how Thrawn was relocated when canonized

This is why legends is WAY better

that wasn't the end of Lumiya. Luke cuts her head off later on in anger

I always liked the character of Lumiya (although I pronounce it with a long 'I', Lu-MY-uh), cuz that's how I heard it read in the Legacy of the Force audiobooks. But I was aware of her in the Marvel comics and found her fascinating. In fact, it was her action figure release as part of a comic 2-pack that got me collecting figures again.

Thumbnail making it look like Vader gave his apprentice an extra credit opportunity

You know what got me fucked up? I can see Disney making her canon but not Starkiller.

Best Star Wars channel ever. May the Force be with you

Disney won't make anything new or unqiue for this canon version of Star Wars. Because all Disney does is copy and paste things from the originals. :(

Starkiller: Am I a joke to you?

*Trained with Vader at night* Bawwchicckybawwbaww! Giggity!

Damn, I miss Legends

*_What if the Ewok movies were considered "Canon"?_* I KEEP ASKING THE QUESTION NO ONE WANTS TO ANSWER!!

@Star Wars Theory - good job, but in the process to make this video quite short (and maybe easy to view that way), you ended with missing or messing up a bunch of stuff: Luke didn't learn Shira's true identity until after he shot her down (and taking all blame for shooting down an ally and fellow member of the Rebel Alliance, both outward and self-imposed). After she amassed the fleet and harrased New Republic, she was betrayed by one of her later apprentices, former imperial guardsman Carnor Jax, though the attempt was unsuccessful and Jax was killed by his former coleague. Then Lumiya went to Korriban and later to outer rim to learn more about the Sith. She found out about One Sith (a shadowy order at that time who wanted to rectify the mistakes of Rule of Two), but Yuuzhan Vong invasion stopped her from meeting with them. And it was only at that time when she met Vergere and made her plan to turn Jacen Solo to the Dark Side, starting with him being captured and broken by Yuuzhan Vong and manipulated by Vergere. Also, her story also didn't end at the Roqoo Depot, as she survived the duel and continued with her training of Jacen Solo. And after Jacen murdered (or killed in self-defence, depends on the point of view) Mara Jade Skywalker, she was for the final time confronted by Luke Skywalker, who thought she is one to blame for his wife's death.

Lumiya is interesting like you said Star Wars Theory and I think they should have her and other book characters like Darth Reven and my favourite Janek Sunber should appear in future TV shows instead of making TV OCs also I think Lumiya is a worthy ally of Lord Vader.

Starkiller was also an apprentice of Darth Vader, he was the more well known appreciate

lol I'm putting money on Snoke being Ray's Mom and Luke her Father

Like even felt bad because he killed her for thinking she killed Mara when it was actually Jacen

Would have been nice if Disney could have used this to create the sequel trilogy. It kind of already matches up with all that was created. She could have taken the mantle as the main Sith with Kylo Ren under her and built the first order from the Empire. A secret apprentice of Darth Vader that would rise up to continue the fight would be a great story. Seems all the pieces for that are here with this storyline.

Few things wrong here,Luke is the one that shot her down when she was with the alliance,because the force warned him he was in danger.and she did not die at the point in the cantina,Luke hunted her down and killed her after Mara was killed,that was the reason he would not go after cadus,because he was tainted by the dark side for hunting her down and killing her in anger

Starkiller: "you guys know that I'm still here, right?"

*S T A R K I L L E R*

What if Darth Maul killed Anakin Skywalker in episode 1 on Tatooine?

Never heard of this character and I read many of the novels up through the Yuuzan Vong series and remember Jacen Solo begin to embrace both light an dark side which is a concept now part of the new series. Much of the art shown in this clip looks like it came from a comic book.

Bruh we all know Darth Vader's apprentice is Starkiller, stop playing wit my boy

Luke “How are you not dead?” Lumiya“Nanomachines son”

What if the Seperatists won The Clone Wars? First Request ^^

What if Darth Maul defeated Sidious? Make this happen

Thanks for this. I had completely forgotten about Lumia.

You were wrong about how lumiya died, she didn't die in the explosion. Instead she escaped and after Mara died by Jacen's hand, lumiya took credit and had one final duel with luke where he decapitated her in a brutal revenge kill which emotionally wrecked luke and pushed him closer to the dark side.

yay she came back!

But instead of Lumiya, we got a cheeky Praetorian Guard with a retractable blade trying to put up a fight against Rey Got to love TLJ😂

What have we learned today? Don't mess with Luke.

Lumiya would be a good match for Starkiller. I would like to see an analysis fight between these two.

''I'm Itching to see that new trailer'' Oh god..yeah I remember being pretty hyped for the last jedi too...but then I saw it.

Well someone had a whip-like weapon in Episode VIII...

Haven't watched the video yet but Galen Marek. Oh wait thumbnails a chick

What about starkiller 🤧

That Saw Guerrera pic cracks me up. XD

Actually Shira Brie's injuries were caused by Luke shooting her down. She, Luke and and a few other pilots were were flying modified TIE fighters. In a battle with imperial forces where friend or foe could not be established, Luke used the force. The trip to Shalyvane was to find evidence to clear Luke's name.

Galen Marek will always be Vader's apprentice to me.

This is actually incorrect about her death she survive the blast and Luke actually killed her later on.

SPOILERS FOR EPISODE 8 BELOW (REGARDING MY COMPARISONS TO THIS CHARACTER) After Snokes death, Kylo Ren and Rey square off against Snokes royal guards (Red guys can't remember what they're called). The Guards feature armor similar to samurai warriors and we never see their faces or really know anything about them (since they all die in that fight scene). Anyway, alothough none of them are force sensitive, they are strong in combat, specifically with weapons. One of them is even seen with a lightsaber-like chain weapon, similar to what this character uses. Anyway, the character that uses that weapon was the only guard able to get an upper hand on rey, another female force user. C O N S P I R A C Y ?

Lol "space panties!" The thumbnail reminded me of the episode of American Dad where Stan couldn't do anything in space without his signature Sigourney Weaver/ aliens space panties on

Man I love your videos. They give me knowledge.

Wasn't Galen Marek Vader's secret apprentice?

What about Starkiller??????

Me: *reads title* Also me: so uh.......................starkiller?

I seem to remember Lumiya being shot down by Luke when they were flying stolen TIE Fighters in a mission. Luke used the Force to see if the occupant of another TIE was an enemy or not and the Force told him the pilot was. This TIE was piloted by Lumiya and got shot down. Luke was put on trial when the occupant was revealed. It wasnt due to a fighter crash Luke even describes this in a panel you show at 4:06. So yeah, you're wrong.

The Light Whip holy fuck that's awesome

Im glad that story is legends...

What happened to jabbas palace after his death?

You skipped her actual death!

The lightwhip is a horrific weapon. If you mess up even once, you risk death or dismemberment.

So many of these stories would be amazing as a movie!

I want a video about Kyle Katarn... Just for nostalgia sake!

She was Vader's SECOND apprentice.

Lumiya needs to be in episode 10 as a new sith, I would really enjoy seeing her character.

TheEmperors ace at 2:58 xD

Awesome dude. You are going places.

Star wars theory. She died because Jason killed Mara so like went crazy and killed her

What if Anakin had the high ground?

What if Luke never met Yoda??

I always loved the light whip, my choice of SW weapon is a greenish yellow light whip that is extra long.

How fitting! The name of Luke's short red lightsaber ("shoto") is actually the traditional Japanese word for the short companion sword that samurai carried along with a daito (aka tachi or katana) killing sword. The two words (daito & shoto) are combined into a new word 'daisho' to describe the combination of the samurai's long killing sword & the shorter companion sword; as carrying the two swords or 'daisho' was a right reserved only for bushi nobility - also known as the samurai class. The word 'shoto' (for short sword) is from the oldschool of bushi culture, circa 1200 ad or so. Later on, as daito & tachi long swords evolved into katana as we know them today, the short sword became more commonly known as the 'wakizashi'. However, the term 'daisho' is still commonly used to refer to the killing sword & short companion sword combination - which remains the distinguishing mark of the samurai. The two sword fighting style is a form of koryu kenjutsu known as ryotojutsu. One of the most famous ryuha of ryotojutsu was formulated by the great Miyamoto Musashi, and is his signature style known as Niten Ichi Ryu (Two swords, one heaven). As any well versed star wars fan knows, this is not even the tip of the iceberg when it comes to star wars universe borrowing from samurai culture. The plot of episode four is basically lifted off the Kurosawa jidaigeki film 'The Hidden Fortress' and indeed even the word 'jedi' is borrowed from the samurai film genre (jidaigeki). Not to mention Lucas stealing characteristics of Kambei Shimada from 7 Samurai to inspire his Yoda character, and Lucas stealing all of Kurosawa's signature screen-wipe transitions and many of his signature shot compositions. If you aren't familiar with the Tokyo classics of the 50s & 60s that much of the original trilogy is inspired by (or blatantly ripped off from), i strongly recommend it!

SO WE AREN'T GONNA TALK BOUT MY MAN GALEN MAREK?

What if Han solo didn't die in episode 7

What if rogue one survived?

Its 2020 now and hearing how excited you were to see episode 8 with rey and Luke. How the future really didnt world out for you :/

This might be where the inspiration for Phasma comes from. Can't imagine her with a basic blaster

Galen Malek is Darth Vader's apprentice, and he became stronger than we could ever know.

1:40 My boy, Luke, gettin’ it on. 😏

George Lucas even confirmed Starkiller, calling it canon.

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!! Finally a story about one of the greatest Characters in Star Wars, she would've been epic onscreen! I do have a couple questions though regarding her history from what I've read. I read that she was accidentally shot down by Luke in a training exercise as Luke mistook her ship as Imperial thus causing her hatred of Luke and vowing to to hurt Luke as much as possible. Also in the Legacy Books Luke blamed Lumiya for Mara's death and out of anger he destroyed her after Mara's death not knowing it was Jacen who killed Mara with a poison dart. Can you please review and possibly elaborate? Nevertheless thank you as her story was waaaay overdue.

Wow, this one slipped right under my radar. I am hoping for ladyvillain in Episode 9, but I assumed this would be more of a Mara Jade type than anyone else.

He def hit that 😏
