You're a Jedi who survived Order 66 what do?

talking about this lady? I couldn't find anything else.

Pitina Mar-Mas Voor

For we—we few! We cunning! We bold!—we are the Coalition for Progress! We—are public relations.Pitina Voor Pitina Mar-Mas Voor was a human female born in 44 BBY. Her family married her off to a senator when she was eighteen but she was able to later orchestrate his suicide and inherited his...

Yes, I was talking about her. While she isn't a "good" person, at least an Imperial government led by someone like her or thrawn could actually be stable and not a shitty nation. So that's why finding some way to kill Vader and Palpatine would be best.

Frankly the galaxy's best hope would have been a galaxy under an Organa dynasty

So...basically Legacy Era Star Wars? Because that's what the Fels were, matrilineal descendants of Leia and by adoption, House Organa.

I'd lay low, keep my lghtsaber hidden, and do just enough to keep myself fed, clothed, and housed while avoiding unwanted attention.

I'd also keep my eye out for anyone force sensitve. They're almost certainly either looking for me with bad intentions, a fellow survivor looking for an ally, or a potential Padawan.

 

[Hlaalu Agent]

I do what the Jedi should have done, and fully immerse myself in the Force and listen to its advice. I'd probably chill out and mediate, contemplate the meaning of life, the Force, and all those other deep and meaningful things. Become a wise hermit, and then when my chance comes...do something and help the next generation change the Galaxy...and then see if I can't help form the New Jedi Order.

Follow the wisdom of Master Yoda: GTFO and go hide somewhere.
A galaxy would have plenty of places where you'd be left alone if you didn't call attention to yourself.
Contrary to what some people seem to think, "The Empire" wasn't trying to conquer and rule everyone everywhere, just for the sake of doing so. At least, not trying very seriously or effectively. Palpatine was not Sauron.

I was under the impression that Yoda had just given up and decided to retire and live out his last few years in peace. Obi-Wan was at least still ready to teach pass on knowledge of the Force and jump back into the fight when the time was right.

Be like Obi-Wan, except actually remain relevant to the plot beyond doing ghost things.

You're a Jedi and Order 66 just happened. Luckily, you survived, but now the new Galactic Empire has declared you an enemy. What would you do to stay in one piece?



I'm going by Legends Cannon where some Jedi survivors survived all the way up to Luke's New Jedi Order. You're free to go by Disney Canon if you wish.

Well the first thing I do is get some regular civilian clothes. And hide my Jedi Robes. I put my Lightsaber in a backpack and find a freighter Captain not willing to ask to many questions and make my way to Tattooine. It is the one place I know Vader will never go. I find a small town in the desert and live out my life there.

You mean the elites in the Core World? There's a reason why the Republic was doomed long before Palpatine came to power. Bail liked to talk a lot about the "democratic process" but he was a monarch on his own planet. Most of the other Core worlds were rich while they often exploited and neglected the outer rim. Palapatine tapped into this already increasing resentment and accelerated the Republic's decline to its natural conclusion.

yeah, but the main reason people become sith in the starwars is that they are immature emotionally where they keep numbing themselves to the point that they make themselves vulnerable to negative emotions look at anakin after losing his mom since he wasnt train to handle negative emotions he was train to be numb to emotions , but the thing with that is that is nearly biologically impossible ,and by meaning i wont join sides means i wont fight for them unless im paid and stuff

I mean if I were a Jedi I'd probably try and learn as much as I could about both the Dark and Light sides of the Force. Its quite stupid that each side zealously restricts themselves to one aspect of it. The 'Mortis Gods' after demonstrated that both were equal components of the Force after all.

Even Sidious had to have used light side techniques to keep Vader Alive while the surgery was taking place to put him in his suit.

he collected as many Dark Jedi as he could, as part of his long-term plans to replace Imperial Governors across the galaxy with Dark Side Adepts.

Dark Empire Palapatine was quite insane after the Essence transfer essentially caused him to lose his mind. Pre-Endor Palpatine was actually quite sane and devoted to pragmatic governance. I honestly hate how Disney made operation Cinder a thing. Its honestly so dumb and pretty uncharacteristic of Palpatine the master schemer to do. Now if say it was Dark Empire Palpatine who created such a contingency, then this would be believable.

to be fair, Palpatine in legends was more practical than he was Disney canon (He was actually very angry and disturbed at Tarkan for blowing up Alderaan, because turned out many of the empire's best and brightest were from Alderaan and blowing it up spelled a PR disaster) if your a Jedi in legends the one you need to worry about is Vader. To say the guy had a hatred for anything related to the jedi was putting it lightly.

I'd honestly hope I was in Legends instead. Though Vader is not nigh unbeatable. If you have foreknowledge of his abilities you could probably come up with a contingency to beat him. His cybernetics and life support in legend is his greatest vulnerability. Just throw an EMP at him and then flee while flooding the room with Nerve gas (like what Daala did). There's no way Vader would come back from that. Plus in a canon comic Vader had Tarkin organize a hunt on Vader where they had to survive him. Tarkin was the last one standing and he nearly killed Vader without real knowledge of the Force and Vader's capabilities.

Yeah, for all that Leia claimed that Alderaan was a peaceful world with no weapons, that was only a polite fiction born of there being no 'Alderaanian' military. Instead, each Alderaanian noble family had its own standing military, and for all the facade of enlightened constitutionalism, Alderaan was for all intents and purposes, Westeros in Space. Hell, Bail's status as Viceroy of the Alderaan System resulted from a literal dynastic marriage with Breha of House Antilles.

Darth Vitiate: Get on my level, scrub.

@King Arts are we to assume that we have only the knowledge that a random jedi would, or do we keep our own knowledge of the setting? If it's the first, then heading out somewhere on the rim and doing a low key robin hood thing is probably the best bet that's not wildly OoC for a Jedi. Hopefully my jedi is smart enough to hang up the lightsaber, or at least reserve it only for emergencies.

If we keep our knowledge then I either do that until about the time of Luke re-establishing the jedi at which point I use years of preparation and resource accumulation to raid/infiltrate the maw to steal the sun crusher which I will absolutely use only for good. Alternatively, starting the same as in the first scenario but maybe even further out, I slowly build up resources from bringing down pirates and criminals, until such time as I can afford to design and build a small capital ship. With meta knowledge and some common sense it should be fairly simple to design a ship that is a huge improvement on what exists already. Combining that with knowledge of secret bases, what defence's are present where, real world tactics and some basic common sense you should be able to inflict damage on the empire disproportionate to the size of the group I'd build, whilst ever improving your own situation and building up a stronger force.

The second option you know everything you know about Star Wars.

Yeah it was a feudalistic system. Then again this wasn't known in 1979 when the movie came out. The lore about Alderaan was written well after the movies released.

Darth Vitiate: Get on my level, scrub.

I mean even Vitiate before he truly went insane, was interested in an actual functional government. The citizens in the Eternal Empire worshiped Vitiate (Valkorian). They supported his regime as they enjoyed quite high living standards under his rule. Meanwhile in Palpatine's empire he plunged the Empire into a galaxy-wide recession with his excessive and impractical military buildup.

Darth Vitiate: Get on my level, scrub.

When factoring in the EU, Palpatine is a knockoff Vitiate while Vader is a poor man's Darth Malgus. Then again Sidious was trying to get Vader to overcome his depression and PTSD to become his own version of Malgus.

Hopefully my jedi is smart enough to hang up the lightsaber, or at least reserve it only for emergencies.

The lightsaber is honestly quite an impractical weapon. Blasters are probably more effective anyway. Even sidious in the comics notes this stating how the Sith preferred to use the Force itself with them adopting the lightsaber to fight the Jedi.

The second option you know everything you know about Star Wars.

This is better as you have much more room to work with. If I were in Star Wars as a Jedi, I'd probably go the mercenary route and make a fortune as a bounty hunter. I might gamble a little and use the force like Qui-gon did to rig games in my favor allowing me to take home a sizeable, but not extremely large bit of cash my way. I'd probably recruit some other followers in the outer rim into my service forming a semi-professional para-military force of mercenaries for hire. Once we make enough of a fortune I might try to invest in getting a small base of my own on an asteroid or something getting some droids from the Clone Wars operational.

In terms of the force, I might probably have a run in with the Ghost Crew on Lothal and probably try to steal the Sith Holocron he had in his possession. Maybe I'm lucky enough to run into Thrawn and offer him the Ghost Crew fulfilling my duty as a "loyal servant of the Empire."

Then when the warlord era happens I'd probably have a decent sized amount of followers in my merry band. I'd probably sell my services to the various Imperial Warlords raking in boatloads of credits while they all kill each other. I'd try to take advantage of the power vacuum to probably setup my own fiefdom setting up my own little petty Kingdom somewhere.

Got to avoid looking at Palpatine since he can see inside

Adult, fully-trained-as-a-sith Palpatine can see inside. Kid Palpatine from before he met Darth Plagueis or Palpatine's grandparents presumably lack said defenses.

 

[Thors_Alumni]

If I was a Jedi and survived order 66, I would hide my lightsaber and find a transport somewhere into the outer parts of the galaxy and then find a YT2400 Freighter of my own to start a small transport business that will both keep me on the move and away from the empire until Luke shows up. Whether or not I join the Rebellion depends on what happens in the interim but mostly I would stay out of the way and wait until the time is right to return.
