''Star Wars: Legacy'' is an American comic book series set in ''Franchise/StarWarsLegends''. The series, published by Dark Horse Comics, is written by John Ostrander and Jan Duursema, and illustrated by Duursema and others, with inks by Dan Parsons and color by Brad Anderson. Issue #0, which cost 25 cents and introduced the setting and major characters, was released on 7 June 2006. Despite being Dark Horse's second best-selling title (after the ''Buffy'' comics) the series was canceled for unknown reasons in early 2010. The final issue, ''Star Wars Legacy 50: Extremes, Part 3'', was released July 28, 2010, with a follow-up miniseries, ''Star Wars: Legacy-War'', released in December and concluding the following May concluding the series.
''Star Wars: Legacy'' begins 133 years after ''Film/ANewHope'', then immediately does a TimeSkip to 137 years before transitioning to 138 before the ''War'' arc. The comics feature Cade Skywalker, a descendant of Luke Skywalker, who was trained as a Jedi but has abandoned the order. He apprenticed himself to the pirate Rav and lives among bounty hunters, smugglers and pirates. Cade has also dropped his last name. The series begins with an attack on the Jedi Temple and the overthrow of the Galactic Empire by a newly created Sith order.
Its revival/sequel was announced on December 3, 2012, and its first issue was released March 20, 2013. Written by Gabriel Hardman and Corinna Bechko, ''Star Wars: Legacy'' Volume 2 shifts focus away from Cade and onto Ania Solo, the great-granddaughter of Han Solo and Leia Organa Solo.
Interestingly, both volumes are considered to serve as the GrandFinale to the Expanded Universe - no stories chronologically took place in the EU after these stories. Given that Creator/{{Disney}} now owns the franchise, and that they have declared the old EU to be an AlternateContinuity in respect to the new films they have planned, it is unlikely that any story taking place after these events will be published - though, thankfully, [[EarnYourHappyEnding the story ends on a conclusive and victorious note]].
Not to be confused with ''Literature/LegacyOfTheForce''.
Now with a [[Characters/StarWarsLegacy character sheet]] that NeedsWikiMagicLove.
----
!!The stories contain the following tropes:
!!!''Legacy'' volume one contains:
[[foldercontrol]]
[[folder: A-K]]
* ActionGirl: Several--Marasiah Fel, Deliah Blue, Morrigan Corde as an ActionMom, and any female Sith are Dark Action Girls.
* AllGirlsWantBadBoys: Despite having all kinds of problems. Cade Skywalker has scored with three very attractive women during the series, most of the other major female cast being related to him.
** Which could arguably mean that his sex appeal is InTheBlood, judging by [[ChickMagnet Luke]] before he married Mara, and Ben in ''Invincible''.
*** Or a subtle deconstruction of the trilogies, as Luke and Leia originally appear a couple, and Anakin and Amidala are, despite the male half of both parings being incredibly whiny and immature.
** And of course, at least one of those women (Darth Talon) likes him ''because'' he has issues, rather than in spite of it.
* AntiHero: Cade, so very much.
* AntiVillain: Some Imperials who serve the Sith-ruled Empire are actually honorable, if misguided, individuals.
* ArcWords: "We take what is given".
* ArtifactOfDoom: The Muur Talisman.
* AscendedExtra: Remember A'Sharad Hett, that Tusken Jedi who was a supporting character for 2-3 issues from the ''Republic'' series? [[spoiler:Turns out he's the BigBad Dark Lord of the entire series.]]
* AscendedMeme: Jedi Master K'Kruhk and his [[http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/K%27Kruhk#Cult_following Freakin' Sweet Hat]] make several appearances in the Legacy comic. In Issues #45 and #46, Roan Fel and the Imperial Knights also wear [[NiceHat Freakin' Sweet Hats]].
* AsLongAsThereIsEvil: [[spoiler:At the end of the series, [[DragonAscendant Nihl, succeeding Krayt as Dark Lord of the Sith after Krayt is killed]], orders all remaining Sith to go into hiding and infiltrate the governments so that the group may live on. Talon and Maladi are among the survivors.]]
* AuthorAppeal: Subverted, of all things. Delilah Blue comes from a polyamorous culture but she is very quick to be jealous when Cade gets attention from other women.
** Even when he gets in a MateOrDie with Darth Talon.
* AuthorityEqualsAsskicking: Roan Fel [[spoiler:Roan kills a Sith Lord by himself with ''his bare hands'' (and a hidden blaster) in a duel that's typically solved only by Force powers and a lightsaber.]]
** [[spoiler:Also, Roan Fel's gloves are made of cortosis, a metal that shorts out lightsabers.]]
* [[spoiler:BackFromTheDead: Darth Krayt]]
* BadassBoast: Jariah Syn on the topic of StuffBlowingUp "I am 'Boom's' daddy!"
* BadassLongcoat: Cade's trademark trenchcoat, of course.
* BadassNormal: Anson 'Noob' Trask manages to take out a Sith Lord.
* BandOfBrothers: Rogue Squadron, also Skull Squadron and Joker Squad.
* BatmanGambit [[spoiler:Hogrum Chalk getting Roan Fel to use Omega Red on the Sith. He knew that Fel would use it. He also knew that Fel would get killed off because he crossed a line. He wanted Fel killed off because he was getting too old, too controversial and had too many enemies. He knew Marasiah would be a much better ruler overall than her father at the end of the war.]]
* BecomingTheMask: [[spoiler:Morrigan Corde took on the Nyna Calixte identity for decades until Grand Moff Veed "kills" her.]]
* BeingTorturedMakesYouEvil: Krayt turned to the DarkSide after being captured and horribly tortured by a Yuuzhan Vong scout ship, whereupon he had his vision of the One Sith. Justified in that he'd been running dangerously close to the edge for decades already; this just knocked him off.
* BigBad: Darth Krayt.
** Played with. [[spoiler:Cade Skywalker and company (with a little help from Darth Wyyrlok) kill him, making it appear Wyyrlok will take the role, but Krayt comes back in a big way in the end]].
* BigBrotherMentor: Wolf Sazen.
* BlackAndGreyMorality: The protagonists are byronic, the Jedi are hiding away and focused on surviving, and the Empire is pretty grey, but none of them really equal the Sith.
** More accurately, this could be described as a GreyAndGrayMorality setting with clearly-defined villains. Eventually, it shifts closer to BlackAndWhiteMorality.
* BloodKnight: Darth Nihl, Darth Stryfe, Darth Maleval, Darth Rauder.
* BountyHunter: Azlyn Rae. Cade Skywalker and crew.
* TheCaptain: Gar Stazi is technically an Admiral but has all of these qualities.
* CardCarryingVillain: The One Sith are all fanatics who claim to be working for Order in the galaxy but occasionally act like total psychopaths for no reason except to inspire fear. One example is Darth Maleval trying to force a man to kill his own brother in an extreme test of loyalty.
** Justified because of the way Sith powers work- they literally draw their strength (or at least believe they do, which amounts to the same thing where the Force is concerned) from being [[{{Jerkass}} jerkasses]] of galactic proportions. And then there's the fact that [[WithGreatPowerComesGreatInsanity no one ever got saner from using the dark side their whole life,either]].
** And that's just one Sith, the other Sith are a lot "nicer" just insanely loyal to the cause, a lot of them even think [[spoiler:what Krayt did to the Mon Calamari is stupid and pointless]]
* CasanovaWannabe: Morlish Veed not only becomes lovers with another Moff's ex-wife but attempts to seduce his mistress' agent. [[spoiler:Unaware they're the same person.]]
* TheChosenOne: Nicely subverted. Everyone feels Cade Skywalker is when the entire point of his story arc seems to be to show how manifestly untrue this is. As does Cade himself, whenever pestered about the matter.
* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: Astraal Vao and to a lesser extent Rav.
* ColorCodedForYourConvenience: The Sith are almost all tattooed red like Darth Maul.
** This is subverted twice in the series, when people use this to pass themselves off as Sith to the Sith themselves. One of them's not even Force sensitive.
** Also, Galactic Alliance ships have green lasers and Imperial ships have red lasers. The GA Remnant apparently even has the resources to replace the lasers on ''Imperious'' with the appropriate color after stealing her.
* TheConsigliere: Darth Wyyrlok to Darth Krayt [[spoiler:until he becomes TheStarscream.]] Nyna Calixte to Morlish Veed [[spoiler:until he finds out she's TheMole.]] Hogrum Chalk to Emperor Fel [[spoiler:also, another example of TheMole]]
* ContinuityNod: In flashbacks, we see that Cade's [[PosthumousCharacter deceased]] father Kol Skywalker had red hair--just like Ben Skywalker and his mother Mara Jade.
* CoolOldGuy: "Bantha" Rawk [[spoiler:a.k.a. Nat Skywalker]]
** [[spoiler:It is too bad he had to die in a HeroicSacrifice]].
* [[CrapsackWorld Crapsack Galaxy]]: The Empire once again rules the galaxy but instead of two Sith, there are '''thousands''' of them.
* CrossThrough: ''Legacy'' is the final part of ''Star Wars: Vector''.
* CrystalDragonJesus - The Imperial Missionaries, at least before Darth Wrrylock decided to remake it into a ReligionOfEvil to spread Sith teachings.
* DarkActionGirl: Darth Talon. Darth Maladi is one too, but only when she has to- by inclination, she's more of a MadScientist. Darth Rauder also qualifies.
* DarkLord: Darth Krayt even has the armor.
* ADayInTheLimelight: Some supporting and minor characters get some issues focused on them.
** Issue 4 ''Noob'' focuses on the minor character Anson Trask, an imperial stormtrooper.
** Issue 13 ''Ready to Die'' focuses on Emperor Roan Fel.
** The ''Claws of the Dragon'' six-issue arc (issues 14-19) focuses on Darth Krayt and explains his backstory.
** The ''Indomitable'' two parter (issues 20-21) focuses on Admiral Gar Stazi.
** Issue 27 ''Into the Core'' focuses on Darth Wyyrlok III.
** The ''Fight Another Day'' two parter (issues 32-33) focuses on Imperial Knight Treis Sinde.
** Issue 41 ''Rogue's End'' focuses on Mandalorian turned Stormtrooper turned Alliance pilot turned Mandalorian ''again'' Hondo Karr.
* DeaderThanDead: [[spoiler:After Cade kills Darth Krayt for the second time, he flies his body into Coruscant's sun, just to be sure he can't come back again.]]
* DealWithTheDevil: [[spoiler:Roan Fel has Darth Maladi create the bio-weapon Omega Red (which is like Alpha Red, only much worse)so he can use this on Coruscant. In return, he has to promise her the head of Cade Skywalker. It comes back to bite him. Fel decides to use it on Coruscant regardless of collateral damage, and Antares Draco has to kill him to prevent that from happening.]]
* DeathByOriginStory: Kol Skywalker is introduced specifically to die at the hands of the Sith and ruin Cade's life.
* DeconReconSwitch: Initially a complete flip of the usual ''Franchise/StarWars'' structure, with good Imperials, a jerkass Skywalker who refuses to be the hero or the villain, and The Jedi are arguably better off without him. And despite StarWars having always been about "Light side vs Dark side", Legacy has MANY shades of Grey. The series pivots at the ''Vector'' sub-series, and by the end ''Legacy'' pretty much reconstructs ''Franchise/StarWars'' after ''decades'' of {{Deconstruction}}. [[spoiler:Cade Skywalker rejects the DarkSide and becomes a better man, Krayt is overthrown and meets an ignominious end, and the Alliance, made up of genuine believers in the restoration of democratic government, score a magnificent final victory.]]
* DemonicPossession: [[spoiler:Darth Krayt's spirit reveals that he'll simply possess Cade Skywalker when he launched Krayt's remains into the sun, which resulted in Cade's attempted HeroicSacrifice until Luke intervened.]]
* DisproportionateRetribution: Darth Krayt, upon finding that the Mon Calamari shipyards have lost 1/3rd of their operating capacity [[spoiler:he orders the entire Mon Calamari race to be put into work camps until they're dead. He also orders the immediate execution of 1/10th of the race]].
* DividedWeFall: In the backstory, the Galactic Alliance was made of this trope - worlds were breaking away to be neutral during the war, because of disagreements over the failure of the Ossus Project, and sabotage from the Sith. In a more personal example, the schism between the Galactic Empire and the Jedi Order is also indicative of a rift in the Skywalker family; Cade Skywalker and Emperor Roan Fel are actually distant cousins (Cade is a direct descendant of Luke, Roan is a direct descendent of Leia), but they end up on opposite sides of the new Galactic Civil War.
* DoggedNiceGuy: Azlyn Rae's relationship with Ganner Krieg. Krieg, unfortunately, is utterly ignored for Cade right up until Rae becomes [[spoiler:a Vader-esque cyborg monstrosity due to Cade's unwillingness to honor her wish to let her die.]]
* TheDragon: Darth Nihl, Darth Talon, and Darth Stryfe all fulfill this function for Darth Krayt. Interesting, a rare non-evil example is Antares Draco for Roan Fel.
** While Nihl, Talon, and Stryfe fill the "enforcer" role of TheDragon, Wyyrlok is a better fit for the "most powerful and loyal servant" part [[spoiler:until a little incident on Had Abaddon... in which Wyyrlok pulls a TheStarscream]]
** [[spoiler:Lord Nihl shortly became Wyyrlok's Dragon. He ended up as Krayt's co-Dragon with Darth Talon.]]
* DragonAscendant : [[spoiler:When Krayt is defeated and near death, his loyal dragon, Darth Wyyrlok, finishes him and sought take up his role.]]
** [[spoiler:After Darth Krayt's final death at the end of the series, Darth Nihl becomes the new leader of the now forced-into-hiding One Sith.]]
* DrunkOnTheDarkSide: Darth Krayt during the Massacre of the Mon Calamari Council.
* DuringTheWar: The '''Sith-Imperial War''' is what started this entire thing. We only see it in flashbacks.
* EarnYourHappyEnding: It certainly does not come without cost, but this series ends on a high note - and, fittingly, it's also the last chronological story told in the original Expanded Universe/Legends continuity.
* EnemyCivilWar: Cade hopes that the Sith will fall into this after Krayt dies. Subverted in that they ''don't''- not only are these Sith at least somewhat loyal to each other, Wyyrlok keeps the secret of Krayt's death from getting out (his habit of routinely going into stasis to prolong his life helps).
** Subverted: [[spoiler:While Darth Maladi takes some moves to possibly support Nihl against Wyyrlok, the true reckoning comes when Krayt himself returns. Even then, the two leaders, Krayt and Wyyrlok, soon face each other face to face with winner take all rather than tearing the Sith apart in a long struggle.]]
* EnemyMine: Cade and [[spoiler:his half-sister]] Gunner team up very grudgingly against a gang of Black Sun assassins in the Tattooine arc.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: A lot of the One Sith members were disgusted with Darth Krayt's decision to [[spoiler:commit genocide against the planet Dac.]]
* EverythingsBetterWithPrincesses: Marasiah Fel.
* [[EvilCannotComprehendGood Evil Cannot Comprehend Jerkass Neutral]]: The Sith have a spectacularly poor track record when it comes to tempting Cade, not because he has no vices ([[AntiHero boy does he ever have those]]), but because he has no real interest in power, which is completely alien to the Sith mindset.
** Cade's complete disinterest in the usual Jedi versus Sith nonsense is best exemplified during this exchange, where a Force-user finally takes the logical third route when confronted with this situation:
-->'''Darth Krayt''': "Now Skywalker, strike your father's killer down! Give into your anger and feel the power of the Dark Side!"
-->*Cade knocks him out, stops fighting.*
-->'''Cade''': "No."
-->'''Krayt''': "Why?!?"
-->'''Cade''': "Because YOU want me to!!"
* EvilChancellor: Darth Wyyrlok, Nyna Calixte.
* EvilOldFolks: Darth Krayt.
* EvilSorcerer: All Sith qualify to a degree, but Darth Wyyrlok in particular is very much into the more esoteric powers of TheDarkSide.
* {{Expy}}: Darth Azard is an unusual case of being an Expy of a character in the same series. He seems to be remake of the one-shot villain Darth Maleval who died after one issue.
* FateWorseThanDeath: [[spoiler:Azlyn Rae becomes another Darth Vader, gets better when she's given new armour that leaves her head uncovered]].
** [[spoiler:Darth Havok threatens Princess Sia with this.]]
* FeudingFamilies: Though it's only made clear in the [[AllThereInTheManual supplementary materials]], the Fel family and the Skywalker family are actually two different branches of the Skywalker-Solo clan that split off and took two vastly different paths. It's implied that Roan Fel's grandmother Jaina Solo turned her back on the Jedi Order when she married Jagged Fel and decided to help him establish a new Galactic Empire, while her cousin Ben Skywalker stayed loyal to the legacy of the Old Republic. By the time of this series, they're on opposite sides of a new Galactic Civil War, and they're only willing to cooperate when [[EnemyMine they have the Sith as a common enemy]].
* FinalSolution: The Genocide on Dac is the Star Wars equivalent of this. It's even called the "Final Protocol."
* FiveBadBand: The initial group of "main" Sith fit rather well into this categorization, though things get shaken up a bit later on.
** BigBad: Darth Krayt
** TheDragon: Darth Wyyrlok
** EvilGenius: Darth Maladi
** TheBrute: Darth Nihl, Darth Stryfe
** DarkChick: Darth Talon
** New FiveBadBand:
*** BigBad: Darth Wyyrlok
*** TheDragon: Darth Nihl [[spoiler:possibly TheStarscream]]
*** EvilGenius: Vul Isen
*** TheBrute: Darth Stryfe
*** DarkChick: Saarai, Wyyrlok's daughter
*** SixthRangerTraitor: Darth Maladi [[spoiler:and Darth Talon once Krayt pulled an UnexplainedRecovery]]
** And the new new FiveBadBand:
*** BigBad: Darth Krayt
*** TheDragon: Darth Nihl
*** EvilGenius: Darth Havok
*** TheBrute: Darth Stryfe
*** DarkChick: Darth Talon
** And don't believe for a second that [[spoiler:Darth Krayt's final death]] put a stop to the Sith! Here's the newest FiveBadBand at the end of things:
*** BigBad: Darth Nihl
*** TheDragon: Darth Havok
*** EvilGenius: Darth Maladi
*** TheBrute: They don't have one just yet
*** DarkChick: Darth Talon, or possibly Saarai
* FoeRomanceSubtext: Darth Talon and Cade have this. [[spoiler:They even sleep together at one point.]]
* ForTheEvulz: Darth Krayt's actions against [[spoiler:Mon Calamari]] are viewed as excessive even by some other Sith, and then Wyyrlok completely tops them.
** Somewhat ironically, Krayt warns [[MadScientist Maladi]] against falling into this after she masterminded a failed assassination attempt on Roan Fel. Apparently he failed to take his own advice...
** Vul Isen is the embodiment of this trope
* FourStarBadass: Admiral Stazi, General Jaeger
* FromNobodyToNightmare: Even before the Sith came back out of the woodwork, the Fel Dynasty had already rebuilt the small, isolated [[TheRemnant Imperial Remnant]] of [[Literature/NewJediOrder Grand Admiral]] [[LegacyOfTheForce Pellaeon's era]] back into a galactic superpower.
* GainaxEnding: Enforced twice. Firstly, Dark Horse insisted that this series end roughly concurrently with Knights of the Old Republic, with the ''War'' arc was a subversion, being a partially successful attempt at defying this. The second was caused by the Disney buyout, and unfortunately also served as one for the entire EU.
* GambitPileup: Everyone has a plan for the Sith's new Star Destroyer prototype, but nobody's on the same page for it. This leads to a suicide, an exile, a genocide, and one of the three factions twice nearly losing its key member.
* GenreSavvy: Cade Skywalker points out that every time the Jedi help people, the galaxy just abandons them when they are needed in return.
** He also demonstrates this trope when he rejects Darth Krayt's typical offer of power - not taking the Dark Side temptation simply because "you want me to." At last, a Jedi who's realized that if any BigBad wants anything of them down, you turn them down solely because they want you to do it, their intentions are always bad.
* GiantSpaceFleaFromNowhere: [[spoiler:Darth Krayt's Sith Troopers are an entire ''army'' of them, suddenly appearing and being hypercompetent, and yet are easily disposed of at the end of the series.]]
* GoodIsNotNice: While Cade certainly isn't good, Gar Stazi and Roan Fel both are willing to break a few eggs to make an omelet.
** There is a critical difference between Gar Stazi and Roan Fel. Gar Stazi acts mean at times because he is trying to save the Galactic Alliance, as well as try to help as many people outside the group as he can. Roan Fel acts mean at times because he is trying to save his portion of the Empire, and he is also a KnightTemplar combined with an ItsAllAboutMe attitude. [[spoiler:Gar Stazi not only survives the war, but he becomes a member of the Galactic Federation Triumvirate. Roan Fel crosses the MoralEventHorizon and gets killed off.]]
* TheGoodTheBadAndTheEvil: Now in ''Star Wars''. The Empire is split into Darth Krayt's empire (the evil) and Roan Fel's empire (dictatorial but not really evil).
** For that matter, although they're definitely the most "good" faction in the series (save perhaps for the Jedi) it's hard to see many traces of a functional democracy left in Admiral Stazi's [[TheRemnant Galactic Alliance Remnant]] (by way of comparison, even in the days of the Rebellion, Admiral Ackbar was subordinate to civilian leaders such as Mon Mothma).
* GrandFinale: As mentioned above, this series is the last hurrah of the old Expanded Universe.
** The six-issue miniseries ''Legacy: War''. Also, AnyoneCanDie. [[spoiler:Darth Wyyrlok, Sgt. Harkas, Moff Geist, presumably Anson Trask, Darth Rauder, Master T'ra Saa, Nat Skywalker, Andurgo, Sigel Dare, Morlish Veed, Darth Stryfe, Wolf Sazen, and in the final issue even Roan Fel and Krayt!]]
** ''Star Wars: Legacy Volume 2 18'' serves as such for the entire series.
* HairTriggerTemper: Andurgo, a Dug Rogue Squadron pilot.
* HeelFaceTurn: A large portion of the '''Galactic Empire''' are now joining the ranks of the good guys.
** Would you believe the Hutts get this treatment?
* HeelRealization: Cade Skywalker finally begins to reconsider his actions when [[spoiler:Luke Skywalker's ghost tells him that he is already nearly a Sith, and shows a vision of him, dressed in full Sith regalia, standing over the corpses of all his friends.]]
** Strengthened by the fact that Cade had MANY chances to turn back fully into the light up until his encounter with Luke's ghost on Tatooine. Realistically takes a lot to get through to a hardened Force-using death stick junkie.
* HeroicNeutral: Cade just wants to be left alone. Though the Sith have a good reason for bothering him.
* HeroicSacrifice: Kol Skywalker in the first issue
** [[spoiler:Jaius Yorub pulls one to save Admiral Stazi AND cripple the Mon Calamari Shipyards.]]
** [[spoiler:"Bantha" Rawk a.k.a. Nat Skywalker and T'ra Saa during the Fall of the Hidden Temple.]]
** [[spoiler:Subverted with Cade Skywalker. He planned to have himself die when having his ship launched into the sun with Darth Krayt's remains in order to ensure that Krayt never returns to haunt the Galaxy again (Krayt had earlier revealed that he would possess Cade Skywalker should he succeed in launching Krayt's remains into the sun). However, Luke Skywalker's ghost eventually talks him out of it, and suggests he live and not worry about Krayt's return.]]
* HypercompetentSidekick: Nyna Calixte is ''much'' smarter than her boyfriend and puppet, Morlish Veed. Wyyrlok is also one for Krayt- Krayt provides the vision and the charisma, but it is Wyyrlok's calm, careful planning that keeps the Sith Empire afloat.
** Both fall apart when Veed takes on the position of Regent Emperor from Darth Wyyrlok out of greed and stops listening to Calixte as much, and Wyyrlok becomes boss himself and ends up more extreme than Krayt.
* [[IfYouKillHimYouWillBeJustLikeHim If You Kill Me You Will Be Just Like The Sith]]: Moff Calixte uses this successfully on Roan Fel.
** Which is rather amusing, because if any non-Sith character justifiably deserves a blade to the gut, it's her.
* IJustWantToBeNormal: Cade Skywalker's refrain. Nat [[spoiler:Skywalker]] actually succeeds in doing this and largely just blasts Cade for claiming he wants to be normal but using his Force powers whenever he feels like it.
* InformedAbility: Morlish Veed is a military genius. We never get to see this.
* InsistentTerminology: Imperial Knights get quite annoyed when they're mistaken for Jedi, which happens quite often. To be fair, the Imperial Knights and the Jedi Knights are in fact two separate orders. But alas, [[IconicItem they both use lightsabers.]]
* JerkassHasAPoint: Cade, in a conversation with Luke's Force ghost, points out that the Jedi always help the galaxy to protect it from evil, but they get screwed over every time the Sith manage to maintain a position of influence and they just keep coming back.
* KarmaHoudini: By the end of Legacy-War, [[spoiler:[[DragonAscendant Darth Nihl]], [[FakingTheDead Darth Talon]], [[YouKilledMyFather Darth Havoc]], [[HeelFaceMole Darth Maladi]], many other Sith, and [[TheMole Hogrum Chalk]]]].
* KickTheDog: Darth Krayt seems to be a DesignatedAntagonist with his mainly menacing only Cade Skywalker and Imperials. Then he orders the wholesale genocide of all Mon Calamari.
** Cade also has a number of these, most notably [[spoiler:turning captive Jedi Hosk Trey'lis over to the Sith]], in addition to generally acts of jerkiness.
*** Not to mention talking Blue into scamming the Imperial Misson aka the group that turned Jabba's palace ''into a homeless shelter''
* TheKingdom: The newest incarnation of the Galactic Empire is--somewhat ironically--much more an example of this trope than it is of TheEmpire. It's still not democratic, and it's still ruled by a monarch, but said monarch is actually an intelligent, cultured man who genuinely cares about his people, tries to rule them with an even hand, and has no [[FantasticRacism prejudice towards non-humans]] (he allows women and aliens to serve as Stormtroopers, unlike his predecessors). Just to drive the point home, his private force of Jedi (the Imperial Knights) actually wear full suits of armor, just like the medieval knights of yore.
* KnightTemplar: Roan Fel will do some pretty questionable deeds to get his throne back from the Dark Lords of the Sith.
** Toned down by a scene in the current Monster arc where BadassGrandpa of the Imperial Knights, Treis Sinde, has a refreshing chat about the importance of keeping to the Light after Emperor Fel suggested acquiring the dark Muur Talisman to use as a weapon.
*** Played straight [[spoiler:in the final issue, in which he plans to unleash Maladi's toxin on Coruscant. Unbeknowst to him, Sith are immune to it by design. Luckily, Antares stops his Master by killing him.]]
** Admiral Edouard Fenel, who serves the ''rightful'' Emperor, but is not above commiting war crimes against the ''disloyal'' officers of Krayt's Empire.
[[/folder]]
[[folder: L-Z]]
* LargeHam: Darth Krayt announcing on '''interstellar television''' that he's going to exterminate an entire race after working them to death.
** And then cut down their Senator on the stage floor with the camera droids looking on. His subordinates slaughtered the rest of the room's members of the targeted race.
* LegacyCharacter: The "Darth Wyyrlok" name has been employed by three generations of the same Chagrian family line. The original Darth Wyyrlok, his daughter, and his grandson (the current Darth Wyyrlok). The latter's daughter, Saarai, is meant to be the fourth Wyyrlok.
* LongLostSibling: Cade Skywalker and [[spoiler:Gunn Yage]].
* LukeIAmYourFather: [[spoiler:Nyna Calixte is the mother of both Cade Skywalker and Gunn Yage. Cade doesn't know the former]]
* MadScientist: Darth Maladi is a Sith Alchemist, which is basically MadScientist + EvilSorcerer + TortureTechnician. Her laboratory is a scary, scary place.
** Also, Vul Isen, who puts Maladi to shame in the mad department, though not so much the science department.
** And the Sith-aligned Yuuzhan Vong Shaper Xenoc Quad
* MakeWayForTheNewVillains: [[spoiler:Darth Wyyrlok kills Darth Krayt and takes control over the Sith, all in the name of "better realizing Krayt's own philosophy. This isn't played straight however, as Krayt was not actually killed and comes back to return the favor and take back control of his empire]]
* MauveShirt: Stormtrooper [=NCOs=] Sergeant Harkas and Coporal Trask show up a few times after their first appearance in a stormie-centric issue.
* MeaningfulName: Darth Krayt is roughly the equivalent of "Darth Dragon" and is turning into a creature very much like it, [[spoiler:in addition to being the dominant predator on his home planet of Tatooine]], and Darth Wyyrlok is an eldritch wizard.
** Darth Maladi spreads disease and maladies, Darth Talon strikes swiftly, Darth Kruhl is a brutal assassin.
** Roan Fel, the morally ambiguous leader of the Empire; Deliah Blue, who has blue hair and blue lips
* MissingMom: No one ever talks about Empress Elliah Fel, the wife of Emperor Roan and the mother of Princess Sia. [[spoiler:Nyna Calixte/Morrigan Corde could qualify as this too, as she abandoned Cade and had almost nothing to do with Gunn.]]
** The final issue reveals that Darth Havok murdered her. Antares calls him out on it and Havok states that it was "regrettable, but necessary."
* MoralityKitchenSink: You've got the One Sith, the Jedi, the Fel Imperials, the Alliance Remnant, the Crew of the Mynok...
* MouthOfSauron: One of the roles of the line of Darth Wyyrloks is to serve as the "Voice" for Darth Krayt whenever he goes into stasis.
%% * MsFanservice: Deliah Blue and Darth Talon
* [[MyCountryRightOrWrong My Empire, Right or Wrong]]: Several Imperial officers of Krayt's Empire, who are actually honorable men. They serve the ''throne'', regardless of who is sitting upon it. Examples of this are Captain Vaclen Tor, Admiral Peto Kelsan, and Chief Mechanic Bor Alsek.
* MythologyGag: Let's say this isn't the first time a Skywalker hits on a girl who turns out to be his sister (well, half-sister in this case).
* ANaziByAnyOtherName: If you thought the Galactic Empire was the Star Wars equivalent of UsefulNotes/NaziGermany, wait till you see what the One Sith did.
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Cade Skywalker destroys the life of his girlfriend, gets a Jedi Master killed, and generally wrecks everything he touches.
** Also creates an even more dangerous BigBad in Darth Wyyrlok by giving said Darth a chance to finish off his master, the current BigBad - only because his master Darth Krayt had been stabbed, fried with lightning and thrown off a cliff in Cade Skywalker's trap.
** The Galactic Alliance (or what's left of it) gets one after stealing a Sith SuperPrototype Star Destroyer, turns out [[spoiler:the Empire already set it to blow up making it look like a malfunction thus preventing any blame on the Mon Calamari]]
*** [[spoiler:Though the Alliance managed to disarm said explosives after putting a team on the ship BEFORE attacking the planet that went after the explosives beforehand.]]
* NotMeThisTime: A variation pertaining to an entire race: Before the events of the series took place, the Galactic Republic became angered when the Yuuzhan Vong's terraforming project resulted in various bone-like deformities occuring on the wildlife and on the people, thinking they deliberately botched the terraforming (it doesn't help that they were still sore with the Yuuzhan Vong from their atrocities during the Yuuzhan Vong war). However, they insisted that they didn't intentionally botch the project, and they are just as shocked at what happened, with only the Jedi believing them. [[spoiler:It was the One Sith who sabotaged the Yuuzahn Vong terraforming project.]]
* NotSoOmniscientCouncilOfBickering: Subverted the Moff Council actually has no real power anymore and mostly just gets together in order to b*tch about the galaxy's present situation.
* OlderThanTheyLook: Both Darth Krayt and Celeste Morne. Specially Celeste Morne, who is ReallySevenHundredYearsOld (actually thousands years old). Considering she was active around 3964 BBY (The Padawan Massacre), one can assume Celeste was between 20 and 40 years old at the time. Giving her an upper bound of having been born around 4004 BBY. Legacy occurs around 138 ABY, so she has been alive for a bit under 4200 years. And she was up and conscious for well over a century of that time, and fighting a Sith Lord for control of her mind for most of those years.
* OmnicidalManiac: [[spoiler:Basically, Krayt's new plan for the Galaxy is to become this so the Galaxy will undergo what he did: the pain of death and the rapture of rebirth.]]
* OutWithABang: Darth Nihl implies that if he and Darth Maladi were to ever hook up, they'd shag each other to death.
* PetTheDog: Cade's {{Mercy Kill}}ing of Celeste.
* {{Phlegmings}}: Quite common with the Sith. Protagonist Cade will get this too at the times he's leaning more towards the dark.
* ThePoliticalOfficer: The Sith Lords fill a similar role in the Imperial Military, ensuring that Admirals and Generals do not defect and follow the will of Darth Krayt.
** Complete with an [[TabletopGame/{{Warhammer 40000}} "oops, sorry sir" style]] fragging of Darth Maleval when he acts a little overzealous.
* ThePowerOfLove: [[spoiler:helps Cade heal Blue from a Vong biot implanted on her by Darth Maladi without falling into the Dark Side. Later, the Power of Love helps him heal his mother after he forgives her.]]
* PowerTrio: The Crew of the ''Mynock''
** Cade Skywalker
** Deliah Blue
** Jariah Syn
* ProudWarriorRaceGuy: Hondo Karr, bordering on WarriorPoet
* RasputinianDeath: [[spoiler:Darth Krayt]] is fried by Force lightning, stabbed in the back of the neck with a lightsaber, tossed off a cliff, and finally fried by Force lightning ''again''.
** [[spoiler:And he ''still doesn't die!'']]
*** [[spoiler:Finally seems to be destroyed at the series end when Cade stabs him though the chest then [[NoKillLikeOverkill FLIES HIS BODY INTO THE SUN.]]]]
* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Roan Fel, leader of the Fel Empire and Gar Stazi, leader of the Galactic Alliance Remnant.
* ReassignedToAntarctica: Moff Nieve Gromia was reassigned to the Tatooine after a corruption scandal on Coruscant.
* RebelLeader: Gar Stazi
* RecurringLocation: Unsurprisingly, there's a four chapter arc that takes place at Tatooine. [[ShapedLikeItself It's simply titled "Tatooine".]]
* RedemptionEqualsDeath: [[spoiler:Celeste Morne]] finds peace in the Force before being executed by Cade. Note that unlike his many other dubious actions, [[spoiler:this is NOT a KickTheDog moment for Cade. Celeste unambiguously wants it, and there is no alternative way to prevent an ancient sith spirit from taking over her body]].
** Cade's also not a dick about it. He says "I know" rather gently, instead of in his snarky jokey way; might have been one of the most compassionate things he's ever done.
* RedShirt: Particularly in the One Sith:
** Darth Maleval
** Darth Kruhl
** Darth Reave
** Darth Yuln
** Darth Brokar
* ReligionOfEvil: As mentioned elsewhere, the Sith are a bit better at teamwork now, but they're still one of the quintessential examples of this trope.
* TheRemnant: The Galactic Alliance Remnant is a [[LaResistance good version]] and slowly gaining ground again. Though forced to make morally ambiguous decisions for tactical reasons, they still embody the TheRevolutionWillNotBeVilified trope.
** The Sith in the end.
* TheReveal: Darth Krayt is [[spoiler:Jedi Master A'Sharad Hett, a supporting character in the Clone Wars-era Expanded Universe and a friend of Anakin, Obi-Wan and other famous Jedi.]]
* SaintlyChurch: The Imperial Mission, pretty much the only group left that actually wants to (and does) help people because its the right thing to do.
** [[spoiler:Not for much longer, if Wryylok has his way, it will soon be a ReligionOfEvil and PathOfInspiration.]]
* ScrewDestiny: Cade may as well be the embodiment of this trope, and he tries ''really'' hard to keep it that way, too.
* SecretIdentity: [[spoiler:Nyna Calixte is Morrigan Cade in one of the Woah moments of the series]].
** [[spoiler:Also, Darth Krayt is A'sharad Hett, the Tusken Jedi from earlier comic series.]]
* SequelHook: [[spoiler:The One Sith are beaten and scattered at the end of the series, but far from destroyed. Numerous high ranking named Sith survive and plan to wage a shadow war on the Triumvirate, in an eerily similar callback to Darth Bane's Rule of Two Order.]]
* ShoutOut: Plenty, but a notable example is the rich and varied vocabulary of [[PardonMyKlingon alien profanity]] peppering the dialogue of Cade and his foul-mouthed associates, which draws from sources including ''Series/{{Battlestar Galactica|2003}}'', ''Series/{{Farscape}}'', and ''WesternAnimation/ThePiratesOfDarkWater''.
** A possible shoutout to Terminator 2 occurs in volume Nine: Monster with Calixte's "I need your hat, your cloak, and your beast" line
* ShutUpHannibal: Cade Skywalker basically gets his one CrowningMomentOfAwesome when he says that he finds all of Darth Krayt's nerfshavit to be....well nerfshavit. Darth Wyyrlok also does this to an ancient Sith Lord.
* SmugSnake: Morlish Veed thinks he's a villainous mastermind. Unfortunately, he's pretty much clueless about everything.
* TheSpymaster: Moff Nyna Calixte
* TheStarscream: Morlish Veed is plotting to take over the Empire. It seems to be obvious to everyone that he is, yet he still has his job. Also, [[spoiler:Darth Wyyrlok turns out to be one, but only to further his master's plans.]]. Also [[spoiler:Darth Nihl might have his own agenda, specially after being warned by Maladi that Wyyrlok might get rid of the two for not having been born Sith]]
** During the late stages of the Second Imperial Civil War [[spoiler:Hogrum Chalk becomes this to Emperor Fel, apparently goading him into falling to the dark side so the Imperial Knights will be forced to kill him.]]
* {{Stripperiffic}}: Pretty much every female chracter in the comic wears a stripperiffic outfit at some point.
** Darth Talon's costume is basically a leather bikini and opera gloves.
** Morrigan Corde's outfit is like that for very good reason, as revealed when [[spoiler:she meets Calixte's ex-husband, who comes on to her without recognizing his own wife.]] The less people look at the face, the better.
** Except Darth Maladi, whose original costume was redesigned because it looked ''too'' stripperiffic.
* TakeAThirdOption: Common like you wouldn't believe.
* TookALevelInBadass: [[spoiler:The resurrected and rejuvenated Darth Krayt.]]
* TrojanPrisoner: Cade Skywalker in the Sith Temple.
** [[spoiler:Ganner Kreig and Shado Vao to aid Antares Draco's infiltration of the Korriban Sith Temple]]
* UhOhEyes: As is typical with other StarWars works, characters will exhibit SupernaturalGoldEyes whenever they channel TheDarkSide. Notably, this happens to Celeste Morne's eyes, combined with BlackEyesOfEvil, perhaps as an indication of [[DemonicPossession Muur's influence]] on her during her battle with Darth Krayt. Cade's eyes turn red when he uses his healing power for too long.
* UndyingLoyalty
* UngratefulBastard: Cade calls the entire galaxy out on this during a conversation with Luke's Force-ghost, pointing out that the Jedi sacrifice everything to protect the galaxy from evil, and when the galaxy spits in their faces and turns them over to the Sith, after the Sith are defeated they just keep coming back.
* VagueAge: It's difficult to say whether [[MasterOfDisguise Morrigan Corde]] is too old or too young for their age.
* VillainDecay: Siths in general, in a way. Since Darth Bane established the Rule of Two, there were always two Siths- the Master and the Apprentice, both exceptionally skilled, and also the unspecified number of Dark Side users outside the Order, mostly without Sith training. After Darth Krayt took over, he enforced his own rule (which, ironically, was truer to original Sith ideology, as it came from XoXann, who lived millenias before Bane). Results? There's peerless Krayt, his few powerful henchmen (Nihl, Wyyrlok, Stryfe, Talon) and plently of wannabe Sith Lords, who get their asses kicked by non-Force sensitives, which was unthinkable during earlier eras. Granted, the entire reason that Bane created the Rule of Two in the first place was because the Dark Side's power was diluted when spread out among so many.
* TheVirus: The Rakghoul plague is used effectively in this series.
* WellIntentionedExtremist: The Sith are overall a lot nicer now, loyalty to one another and put behind there old habits [[spoiler:which proves to be a bit hard to break]].
** [[spoiler:Roan Fel in the final issue]].
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: Hondo Karr, Rav, Moffs Konrad Rus and Fehlauur. The most infamous example is Astraal Vao.
* WhatMeasureIsANonhuman: Averted and deconstructed. The Galactic Alliance's key protagonists are almost entirely aliens, and they're generally also the most compassionate and thoughtful characters in the series, far more so than DesignatedHero Cade.
* WideEyedIdealist: Anj Dahl walks the line into such territory at times.
* WildCard: Calixte/[[spoiler:Corde]] has helped and hindered just about every major faction in the series at one point or another. Her long-term goals remain a mystery.
** Try Hogrum Chalk. He seems to work for Roan Fel, but he actually passes on secrets to Morlish Veed. He crafts the armour worn by the Imperial Knights. He revealed to Veed that Calixte works for Roan Fel. He constructed armour for Azlyn Rae that did not even need a helmet. He manipulated Roan Fel into having Omega Red made to be used to kill the Sith - [[spoiler:and this eventually resulted in Roan Fel's death]]. He delivered the eulogy at [[spoiler:Roan Fel's]] funeral. He announced the formation of [[spoiler:a Galactic Federation Triumvirate, led by Gar Stazi, Jedi Master K'Kruhk, and Empress Marasiah]]. He is close to his niece, Marasiah Fel. Why? Because she reminds him very much of his dead little sister, Elliah Fel. No one even knows that he betrayed Roan Fel, and his motivations for betraying Roan Fel have not been explained.
* YouHaveFailedMe: Averted a number of times with the Sith, as shocking as this seems.
** Darth Talon spared after her failure in the Broken arc (methinks Krayt would never throw away something that hot); Darth Maladi after Roan Fel's decoy plor is discovered in Broken; Darth Nihl after Cade's escape from the Sith Temple (although he gets a demotion and a Mutant arm instead of his normal one that was severed).
* YouKeepUsingThatWord: The Triumvirate seems a touch large for its name. While it presumably refers to its three factions (Jedi, Alliance, and Imperial), the name itself implies only three leaders at a table that has many more.
* YouKilledMyFather: Cade Skywalker has this with Darth Nihl. It's revealed Nihl talked his involvement up a lot and really only got a quick blast of lightning in.
** Jariah Syn has this with Rasi Tuum. [[spoiler:It's subverted with Rasi Tuum revealing, to no one's surprise, that Jariah Syn's father probably deserved to die]].
* YouShallNotPass: Kol Skywalker does this.

!!!''Legacy'' volume two contains:
[[folder: A-Z]]
* ActionGirl: Ania Solo.
* BadassNormal: Ania Solo absolutely, completely does not have the Force.
* BecauseDestinySaysSo: Ania says this is a dumb attitude to have and she's successfully avoided it her entire life.
* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: Darth Wredd hijacks the galaxy's equivalent of the internet in order to project the beheading of an Imperial Knight.
* GiantSpaceFleaFromNowhere: Marasiah Fel has a somewhat understated reaction to this as does the rest of the galaxy. ''Who the hell is Ania Solo?'' Given the way the Skywalker-Solo clan has affected the galaxy, this may not be an exaggerated attitude to discovering there's another Skywalker-Solo.
* KickTheDog: Marasiah Fel has inherited some of her father's darker qualities.
* KlingonPromotion: Darth Wredd has made this an art, planning on exterminating every other Sith in the galaxy until he can re-institute the Rule of Two.
* LargeHam: Darth Wredd.
* PragmaticVillainy: The Triumvirate (ostensibly good guys) argues this is the best answer to Darth Wredd since he's primarily interested in murdering his fellow Sith.
* ScrewDestiny: Ania does it much-much better than Cade.
