Featuring loads of CharacterDevelopment and plenty of combat, both of the lightsaber and [[SnarkToSnarkCombat snark]] kind, they provide an intriguing possible view into another universe from the beginning of Obi-Wan’s apprenticeship to the [[Film/ThePhantomMenace early days of the prequel trilogy]]. |

29 | |
30 | * [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/9238842/1/Because-I-Said-So Because I Said So]]: An early story set just a couple of months after Lineage I, during which Obi-Wan goes on his first official mission, and learns obedience. |

34 | |
35 | !!''Lineage'' and ''Legacy'' contain examples of the following tropes: |
36 | * AbortedArc: Several. Aside from the obvious one in Legacy VI, Dooku's growing friendship with Palpatine and Zan Arbor's aims are cut off. |
37 | * AbsentMindedProfessor: Master Agrion Pertha, the Temple's resident botanist and a friend of Qui-Gon's. |
38 | * TheAce: Obi-Wan. MasterSwordsman, expert pilot ([[RunningGag who doesn't like to fly]]), wise scholar, and great diplomat. |
39 | * AcePilot: Garen Muln is very much this, as is Anakin. While Obi-Wan professes to hate flying, he's fairly good at it. |
40 | ** Saesee Tinn appears in Legacy III, and lives up to his reputation as this. |
41 | * AlternateUniverse: The basis of the story. |
42 | * BatmanGambit: The Council knows that Qui-Gon ought to take a Padawan, but he himself doesn't want to. So what does the Council do? [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments Explicitly forbid him to take a Padawan]]. It works like a charm. |
43 | ** In Lineage V, Dooku needs to know more about [[spoiler: Darth Maul and his Master]], so he uses a torture session to cover slipping a tracking device into the Zabrak's arm, then allows him to escape. |
44 | * BattleInTheRain: Obi-Wan engages in one during Legacy, against a dozen tanks at once. He wins. |
45 | * BoisterousBruiser: Feld Spruu, always laughing and cheerful, as well as a swordsman who can give Obi-Wan serious competition in the dojo. |
46 | * CloseKnitCommunity: The Jedi Temple seems to be one. |
47 | * CombatParkour: The lightsaber form Ataru. Dooku and Adi Gallia look down on it for this. |
48 | * CulturedBadass: Dooku and Obi-Wan bond over being this. While Yoda could be an example of this, he enjoys teasing them, feeling that the true measure of a person is on the inside, not their clothes or tea ceremony. |
49 | * DeadpanSnarker: Pretty much everyone, but Obi-Wan takes the cake. |
50 | * DarkerAndEdgier: The first five stories were fairly light, though they had their darker moments. Lineage VI contains a fairly brutal scene of [[spoiler: Obi-Wan being whipped by Qui-Gon]] (ItMakesSenseInContext), Lineage VII has [[spoiler: Siri dealing with the aftereffects of rape]], Lineage VIII takes a brutal look at the "justice" system of the Republic, and Lineage IX through XI get steadily darker, before the tone picks up towards the end of Lineage XI. |
51 | * EccentricMentor: Aside from Masters Jinn and Yoda, Master Pertha is an AbsentMindedProfessor, yet one very knowledgeable in regards to botany. And, it's heavily implied, one who's nearly as much of a maverick as Qui-Gon. |
52 | * ExactWords: Obi-Wan uses this in Lineage I to fool Qui-Gon. Both he and Qui-Gon often use this trope to deal with {{Obstructive Bureaucrat}}s. |
53 | * {{Foreshadowing}}: Obi-Wan is very interested in the Teth dynasty throughout all of the series, and then in Legacy VI, it turns out that it still exists. |
54 | ** Dooku's growing relationship with Palpatine is obviously meant to be this, but it ends up being an AbortedArc. |
55 | * ForWantOfANail: Due to his experiences on [[spoiler: Melida-Daan, Obi-Wan is Knighted]] five years early. This also leads to him meeting [[spoiler: Anakin]] about a year early, as well. |
56 | * TheGhost: Chancellor Valorum. |
57 | * HeWhoFightsMonsters: Dooku says that this is what happened to [[spoiler: Sifo-Dyas]]. [[{{Foreshadowing}} There are signs]] [[OhCrap that it's starting to happen to Dooku...]] |
58 | * KungFuWizard: All Jedi are expected to have some unarmed as well as lightsaber combat skills. |
59 | * LighterAndSofter: The first few books of Lineage (see above), and in general, Legacy. |
60 | * MasterApprenticeChain: Dooku to Qui-Gon, Qui-Gon to Feemor, Xanatos, and Obi-Wan, Obi-Wan to Anakin. |
61 | * MasterSwordsman: Yoda, Dooku, and Mace Windu, naturally, are stand-out examples. |
62 | ** Qui-Gon is very nearly as good as Mace, and Obi-Wan and [[spoiler: Maul]] are pretty much equal (and more or less even with Qui-Gon). |
63 | * TheMole: In Lineage II, [[spoiler: Sifo-Dyas]]; in Lineage III, it's [[spoiler: Choollo]]. |
64 | * MythologyGag: Obi-Wan's Force visions occasionally contain references to the main films, such as seeing [[Film/ThePhantomMenace Qui-Gon on a funeral pyre and asking his Master what will become of him.]] |
65 | ** Obi-Wan has a dubiously canon brother named Owen. In Legacy II, it turns out that he has a cousin adopted as a brother, named Owen. |
66 | * PapaWolf: Qui-Gon is very protective of Obi-Wan, though his teaching methods are... unconventional, to say the least. |
67 | ** When Troon Palo hears that Qui-Gon has upset his precious charge, he swears to himself that he'll put the man in a headlock and throttle him with his own tunics. |
68 | * PosthumousCharacter: Chakora Seva, an {{OC}} from 400 years before, provides many quotes utilized by Obi-Wan and occasionally Qui-Gon. |
69 | * PsychicBlockDefense: Every trained (and even some untrained) Sensitive has this, to a greater or lesser extent. |
70 | * PurpleProse: There's ''lots'' of this. |
71 | * APupilOfMineUntilHeTurnedToEvil: Xanatos, whom Qui-Gon views as [[MyGreatestFailure his greatest failure]]. |
72 | * RageAgainstTheMentor: It's heavily implied that Qui-Gon did plenty of this to Dooku as a Padawan. Xanatos, naturally, has a far greater antagonistic relationship with Qui-Gon. |
73 | ** Obi-Wan has a moment of this towards the end of Lineage VII, when he calls Qui-Gon a hypocrite for [[spoiler: telling him to not get attached to Siri even though Qui-Gon's clearly done the same with regards to Tahl]]. |
74 | * ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Yoda and Mace, though they fall on the stricter end of the spectrum, are ultimately this, as is Qui-Gon, who's generally kinder. |
75 | * RefugeInAudacity: Obi-Wan pretends to be a Togorian demigod in order to settle a planetary conflict. |
76 | ** This is Qui-Gon's usual MO, such as in Legacy II, when his solution to the election dispute is to [[spoiler: make sure there's no election]]. ItMakesSenseInContext. |
77 | * ShipTease: ''Loads'' between Obi-Wan and Siri, and plenty between Qui-Gon and Tahl. |
78 | * SpacePolice: The Jedi are mostly a mix between this and {{Ambadassador}}. Some focus more on one, some on the other. |
79 | * ToBeLawfulOrGood: Qui-Gon will choose Good every time. Obi-Wan and Mace will, while irritated, usually choose Good if they can't TakeAThirdOption. |
80 | * VitriolicBestBuds: Qui-Gon and Mace, Qui-Gon and Plo Koon, Obi-Wan and Garen, and Obi-Wan and Feld all snark at each other regularly, but also care deeply for one another. |
81 | * WithGreatPower: Jedi are trained to believe this since childhood. |
