comment
A Star Wars Legends comic book series from The '90s, about the adventures of the Jedi Knights thousands of years before the Star Wars films. It originated from ideas in two other separate series: backstory and Jedi lore in Tom Veitch's Dark Empire, and the origins of the Sith Lord Exar Kun after his appearance in Kevin J. Anderson's Jedi Academy Trilogy. Tales began as a collaboration between the authors, but the later parts ended up written by Anderson alone.The Tales of the Jedi series is split into two parts. The first (written by Anderson and Tom Veitch) deals with the fall to the dark side of the Jedi Knights Ulic Qel-Droma and Exar Kun and their subsequent war against the Old Republic, four thousand years before A New Hope. A prequel series (written exclusively by Anderson) was later published, taking place a further thousand years earlier and showing the fall of the Sith Empire during the Great Hyperspace War, explaining and elaborating upon several important points which formed the background of the first series.The importance of this series for Star Wars Legends is hard to understate, as it established many critical parts of the universe's lore. Moreover, it led directly to the critically acclaimed Knights of the Old Republic video games, which in turned paved the way for Star Wars: The Old Republic MMO. These games have spin-offs of their own, and they all owe that to the Tales of the Jedi.The main story arcs in chronological order are: The Golden Age of the Sith The Fall of the Sith Empire Knights of the Old Republic Ulic Qel-Droma and the Beast Wars of Onderon The Saga of Nomi Sunrider Freedon Nadd Uprising Dark Lords of the Sith The Sith War RedemptionTales of the Jedi is not to be confused with Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi, the 2022 Disney+ series of the same name, which is set before, during, and after the events of the Prequel Trilogy instead of in the distant past of the Star Wars galaxy.

Brainwashed and Crazy: Exar Kun's Sith converts, whom he poisons with shards of a broken holocron. Ulic Qel-Droma also suffers this, but to a lesser degree—mind-altering chemicals lower his resistance, but More than Mind Control is what really brings him down.

Royals Who Actually Do Something: Even after becoming ruler of Onderon, Oron Kira is the first Beast Rider in the air when the Mandalorian attack begins. Also Empress Teta, Lady of War par excellence who a) unifies the seven worlds of the Koros system b) always fights on the front lines, willing to lay down her life for her cause and unwilling to order the deaths of her people without the same possibility befalling her c) believes Odan-Urr and Memit Nadill despite not being Force-sensitive herself, to the point of risking her political clout by telling the Senate of the impending Sith invasion and d) leading the battles which not only save Koros and the Republic but take out the Sith Empire at Korriban. No wonder she got an entire system named after her!

Good Is Not Nice
 Tales of the Jedi (Comic Book) / int_21f3aa44
comment
Good Is Not Nice: A thousand years before the main story about Ulic and Exar Kun, the Jedi and Old Republic exterminated the Sith species, who at the time were a thriving interstellar civilization. Yes, it was during a war (that the Sith had started), and they were your average typical space-opera villains, but it's still a whole species of Human Aliens. And yes, it was said that they deliberately hunted down every last one of them (at least until Star Wars: The Old Republic rolled around...).

Early Adaptation Weirdness
 Tales of the Jedi (Comic Book) / int_26fd153
comment
Early Adaptation Weirdness: Sith used blue and green lightsabers. In the case of Jedi-turned-Sith, like Exar Kun, it was justified, since they simply continued used the same lightsabers they had as Jedi. There was also Warb Null, who was always a darksider (although not a Sith) and used a green lightsaber. It wasn't until The Phantom Menace where it was established that all Sith, not just Vader, use red lightsabers. Instead of the Force Lightning (which, oddly enough, had already been introduced before these comics were made), the Sith had another offensive power called Force Blast, which is the kind of attacks you'd see in a shonen anime/manga. At least once, multiple Jedi are referred to as "Jedis." As the earliest comics were made before the prequel trilogy films, there are many differences from later official canon. For example, no Sith uses the "Darth" title (at that point in the franchise only Vader had ever canonically used it) or an alias, instead retaining their real names. The Jedi were not prohibited from marrying or having families. Force-sensitive children like Vima were not automatically recruited into the Jedi Order. Adults like Nomi were considered legitimate candidates for apprenticeship. Jedi Masters could, and often did, have multiple apprentices at the same time (the term "Padawan" had also not been introduced yet). Quite a bit of later expanded universe content would go into explaining how these differences came about.

Spiritual Successor: The Knights of the Old Republic games and comics, which are set in the same era and contain various references to events and characters from this series. They were originally intended as a straighter sequel: KOTOR's Bastila Shan was even supposed to be Nomi Sunrider at first, but this floundered due to murky copyright claims.

I Can Rule Alone
 Tales of the Jedi (Comic Book) / int_3821b813
comment
I Can Rule Alone: Exar Kun isn't particularly interested in serving Freedon Nadd for the rest of his life, or in sharing power with Satal and Aleema. He doesn't seem to mind having Ulic as his ally/general, though—while he does eventually abandon him on Ossus, this is more to carry out his own plans on Yavin than not wanting to share power, and he had earlier come to Ulic's rescue at the Senate trial. Sith prophecies, amulets, and tattoos are far better motivators than being ordered around as a lackey, who knew?

"I Know You're in There Somewhere" Fight: Nomi's mission to retrieve Ulic quickly turns into this kind of fight. However, she calls a retreat before it gets too far, as it's clear he's too far gone and won't willingly come back with them. Cay confronts Ulic on Ossus, ending up in a defensive lightsaber fight while he tries to remind him that he used to be a good man. It has no effect and Ulic soon kills him. And then he awakens to the horror he's inflicted and returns to himself.

Fantastic Racism: Kun believes that human Jedi are inherently superior to Jedi from other species, though he has no problems with using alien Jedi as pawns he can control. There is a great deal of prejudice between the people of Iziz and the Beast-Riders (who, admittedly, are descended from exiled criminals). Naturally, the children of the ruling families fall in love.

Cats Are Mean
 Tales of the Jedi (Comic Book) / int_58e43f17
comment
Cats Are Mean: Played with for the Beastfolk Cathar. Crado and Sylvar start off as loyal, good-hearted, brave Jedi (albeit arrogant in Crado's case and a bit of a Blood Knight in Sylvar's). Once Crado becomes corrupted by Exar Kun, both of their flaws worsen, but Crado ends up becoming a fawning sycophant and loses pretty much all his badassery (and never gains any real menace) while Sylvar's quite justified resentment causes her to become fanatical about both hunting down her former mate and making Kun pay for corrupting him. In the end Crado is so pathetic that you can't help feeling sorry for him when Kun sends him on a suicide mission in Naga Sadow's ship, while Sylvar is able to let go of her hatred and blood lust thanks to Nomi and Vima and thus forgive Ulic. The Cathar themselves, in the scenes in Redemption when Sylvar goes home to try and purge herself of her anger, only come across as strongly noble Proud Warrior Race Guys in tune with the natural world but able to control their animal urges, quite in keeping with their appearance as saber-toothed Kings of the Beasts.

Token Heroic Orc: Aarrba the Hutt, who is a rare case of a Hutt that's not a greedy criminal. He's actually fairly generous, when Hok and Timar Daragon leave him their ship as collateral on a loan and die before paying it back, he forgives the debt and gives the ship to their children purely to do something nice for the siblings who just suffered a huge loss. Amusingly, he's aware of this and insists people keep his less than cutthroat deals secret. It wouldn't do for word to get out that a Hutt is doing things like extending credit.

Royal Blood: An important element of the power struggle among the lords of the Sith Empire. For example, Naga Sadow possesses minimal Sith blood and takes pride in the purity of his Jedi lineage, tracing his ancestry right back to the original Dark Jedi who fled the Republic and enslaved the Sith species.

Rebellious Princess: Galia is a positive example. She was opposed to her parents' evil ways and had secret dealings with the underground resistance movement, which is how she met and fell in love with Beast Rider noble Oron Kira. She conspired with him to have herself seemingly kidnapped from her palace chambers so that she could marry him. Together they would become the first rulers of Onderon in centuries who were not followers of the Dark Side.

Altar Diplomacy: Subverted. Princess Galia and Oron Kira Marry for Love first and foremost. However, they are keenly aware that their marriage can potentially end the centuries-long conflict between the city of Iziz and the Beast Riders of the wilderness. Indeed, despite her evil parents' overt hostility towards the union (expressed via The Dark Arts), when the Beast Riders and the Jedi defeat Queen Amanoa and King Ommin, Galia and Oron succeed in unifying Onderon and joining the Republic.

This, of course, makes him extremely vulnerable...

Protagonist-Centered Morality: Empress Teta, military dictator of the Koros system and anti-Sith crusader par excellence. She's supposed to be one of the good guys, but there are worrying little things in her portrayal. Like how the POWs from her victorious wars of unification for the greater good are still in hard labor camps a decade after the last war ended. Or how the system is renamed the Empress Teta System afterwards. Not to mention conquering other planets in wars which must have killed millions to begin with. which are explicitly described as quite brutal. The heroes don't seem to care since she's on their side. Granted, her enemies are also bad.

You Have Outlived Your Usefulness: Exar Kun arranges the death of Aleema because she betrayed Ulic Qel-Droma and left him to be arrested by the Jedi, and Crado because he finds him annoying. Kun also turns on the spirit of Freedon Nadd once he has learned all he can from him (though to be fair this is also due to Nadd's continued attempts to manipulate him, including into making him a body so he can be restored to life). Karmically fitting, considering Nadd had done the same thing himself to Naga Sadow.

Training the Gift of Magic
 Tales of the Jedi (Comic Book) / int_93b39134
comment
Training the Gift of Magic: Much of the story is driven by this trope. Nomi is initially Force-sensitive but considers herself too timid to become a Jedi until her husband is killed and Master Thon takes her as an apprentice. The royal family of Onderon has been receiving Dark Side guidance from the ghost of their ancestor Freedon Nadd for centuries. Satal and Aleema steal an ancient Sith spellbook from a museum and gain the means to read it from King Ommin. They also get some help from Freedon Nadd's ghost, who is even more interested in guiding Exar Kun to the ancient Sith knowledge hidden on Yavin IV for his own purposes. Vima Sunrider eventually ends up seeking out Ulic Qel-Droma because her mother and the other Jedi are too busy to train her even after years of commenting on her great potential.

Rich Boredom: Unlike most people who turn to the Dark Side, Satal and Aleema Keto did not start out with any great ambitions to fulfill, enemies to defeat or needs that had to be addressed. They were simply spoiled young members of the royalty of the Empress Teta system with time on their hands who developed an interest in Sith lore while visiting a museum and decided that it would be interesting to learn more. Things went downhill from there.

Knights Of The Old Republic: Ulic Qel-Droma and the Beast Wars of Onderon: Queen Amanoa, secretly a Sith Sorceress who ruled Onderon with an iron fist through the power of the Dark Side. The Saga of Nomi Sunrider: Bogga the Hutt, a crime lord responsible for the death of Nomi's husband Andur in order to steal the valuable Adegan crystals he was carrying, and later tried to have Nomi killed when his minions failed to get the crystals. Freedon Nadd Uprising: King Ommin, Queen Amanoa's husband and fellow Sith Sorcerer, who attempted to reclaim Onderon for the Dark Side after her wife's defeat at the hand of the Jedi. Dark Lords of the Sith: Satal and Aleema Keto, a couple of Force-sensitive Spoiled Brats cousins beloging to the Empress Teta system royal family, who began to study the Dark Side purely out of boredom. Sith War: Exar Kun and Ulic Qel-Droma, newly minted Dark Lords of the Sith who, alongisde the Mandalorians, launched a campaign of conquest against the Republic. Redemption: None. The story is about Ulic Qel-Droma trying to atone for his crimes during the previous arc, and training Vima Sunrider as a Jedi.

Foreshadowing: Every master that encounters Vima Sunrider says she'll become a great Jedi. Vima's actions in Redemption certainly put her on this path, although copyright nonsense prevented the EU from taking it further. Jedi in general do a lot of this consciously (what with being vaguely precognitive and all), such as when Cay tells Ulic he feels like they'll never see each other again.

Action Mom: Nomi Sunrider starts out as an Action Survivor, but gradually becomes a more proactive heroine in her own right. One of the sequel comics shows that this comes at a price, however, as her time is eaten up by the Jedi and she can't raise her daughter the way she would want to.

Also to a lesser extent this is the original state of affairs between the different members of Freedon Nadd's followers (the Krath/Ulic vs. Exar Kun) until Nadd is killed (again) and the spirit of Dark Lord Marka Ragnos enforces an alliance between Ulic and Kun, and later still another version could be said to apply to their treatment of Aleema and Crado, although this falls more under You Have Outlived Your Usefulness, No Honor Among Thieves, and Treachery Is a Special Kind of Evil.

Hope Spot: When Exar Kun is overwhelmed by the Dark Side power of the ancient Sith temple he's exploring on Korriban, he begins to have second thoughts about his search of forbidden Sith knowledge, wonders if his master's warnings had some merit, and decides to return to his ship in order to reconsider if he should continue on his endeavor. Too bad the spirit of Freedon Nadd causes a rock slide, blocking the temple's exit, and forcing Kun to explore the rest of the temple, which would ensure his fall to the Dark Side. Nomi and Cay think that they have a chance to get Ulic back when they sense him over Ossus. They really don't.

Sorcerous Overlord: Very common. Freedon Nadd became this on Onderon centuries in the past and his descendants continued the tradition until Princess Galia rebelled. Satal and Aleema Keto become this in the Empress Teta system after learning Sith magic. Exar Kun makes a serious play to become this for the entire galaxy, which is what causes the Great Sith War.

Horrible Judge of Character: Vodo-Siosk Baas's failure to realize that his prized student Exar Kun was already one foot in the dark side, even though Kun was openly racist, injured his peers in training duels, and kept asking questions about Sith knowledge. It's to the extent that the authors of other Expanded Universe works have had their characters use Baas as an example of Jedi blindness.

Reasonable Authority Figure: Despite the above points regarding her somewhat questionable actions during and after the Unification Wars, Empress Teta not only believes the vision related to her by Odan-Urr and tries to warn the Senate of the impending invasion (even though this risks her own political credit she's earned thus far), she also believes Jori Daragon when she sneaks into her chamber in the palace of Cinnagar rather than having her summarily executed as a spy and assassin (or for the crimes she and her brother had committed against Aarrba). And in the end, in gratitude for what she had done for the Republic and the brother she had lost, Teta grants Jori's request to take over Aarrba's repair dock. Modon Kira, the head of the Beast-riders, takes it in stride when three Jedi crash into his son's wedding banquet and invites them to join. He tells them that he's ready for peace, but also for war.

 Tales of the Jedi (Comic Book) / int_eba6a077
comment
Cain and Abel: Ulic Qel-Droma, who falls to the Dark Side, and Cay Qel-Droma, who stays with the Jedi. It matches with Cay's golden hair and Ulic's darker shade. It's driven home especially hard when Ulic kills Cay in a duel.

Redemption Equals Death
 Tales of the Jedi (Comic Book) / int_f1492605
comment
Redemption Equals Death: Somewhat of a subversion in Ulic's case. He's been turned back for some time and at the end, none of the Jedi are interested in punishing him anymore. His death is a result of a Jedi-worshipping pilot wanting a place in history.

 Tales of the Jedi (Comic Book) / int_f226207f
comment
Conveniently Close Planet: As conveniently close as you can possibly get without them crashing into one another - according to this series, Onderon and its largest moon Dxun share much of the same fauna because they are so close to each other that their atmospheres merge for a brief time every summer, allowing beasts from Dxun to literally fly over to Onderon.

Brain in a Jar
 Tales of the Jedi (Comic Book) / int_f3fac450
comment
Brain in a Jar: In Golden Age of the Sith we are introduced to the Jedi Master Ooroo and the Sith Lord Simus. Whereas the former appears to be an actual alien brain living in a giant crystal, the latter was defeated in combat by another Sith Lord and developed a means of keeping his head alive in a jar.

Enemy Civil War
 Tales of the Jedi (Comic Book) / int_f52ae5d8
comment
Enemy Civil War: In the Great Hyperspace War, the Sith were united under Naga Sadow in their war against the Republic, but halfway into the war the Sith turned on Naga Sadow and civil war broke out while they were still fighting the Republic; by the time Naga Sadow had put down the usurpers, the Republic was able to finish off the weakened Sith Empire. Also to a lesser extent this is the original state of affairs between the different members of Freedon Nadd's followers (the Krath/Ulic vs. Exar Kun) until Nadd is killed (again) and the spirit of Dark Lord Marka Ragnos enforces an alliance between Ulic and Kun, and later still another version could be said to apply to their treatment of Aleema and Crado, although this falls more under You Have Outlived Your Usefulness, No Honor Among Thieves, and Treachery Is a Special Kind of Evil.

Depending on the Writer
 Tales of the Jedi (Comic Book) / int_fdc4fab4
comment
Depending on the Writer: After Tom Veitch left, Kevin J. Anderson authored (roughly) the last two-thirds of the series. He had some input on previous material as well, so the shift isn't quite as jarring as with, say, Darksaber, but still detectable. All the main characters become noticeably stupider and more violent, there are a few subplots that go nowhere, and suddenly superweapons (which did not feature previously) are major plot devices.

Lady of War
 Tales of the Jedi (Comic Book) / int_fe48cea2
comment
Also Empress Teta, Lady of War par excellence who a) unifies the seven worlds of the Koros system b) always fights on the front lines, willing to lay down her life for her cause and unwilling to order the deaths of her people without the same possibility befalling her c) believes Odan-Urr and Memit Nadill despite not being Force-sensitive herself, to the point of risking her political clout by telling the Senate of the impending Sith invasion and d) leading the battles which not only save Koros and the Republic but take out the Sith Empire at Korriban. No wonder she got an entire system named after her!

Interrupted Cooldown Hug: At the end of Redemption, the estranged Nomi and Ulic embrace after she accepts the sincerity of his regret and he stops Sylvar from falling completely to the dark side. Then, Hoggan shoots him in the back and kills him. Then he gloats about it. He's quite shocked when none of the Jedi in the vicinity are pleased with him.
