    Sentinels were the Jedi equivalent of covert operatives and the twins seemed to use blitzkrieg tactics designed to eliminate Republic and Sith forces before the wider galaxy could be informed of what was going on. So maybe yellow symbolizes those with a mind for subtlety.

    Personally I actually wouldn't agree here, as all of Valkorion's children were trained in a manner entirely divorced from Jedi traditions. Stupendous probably has a point here with them desiring to stand out. Also, keep in mind the ways in which both Arcann and later on Vaylin ruled: they were iron-fisted tyrants who bombared planets into rubble with minimal provocation. At least from the player's perspective in SWTOR, they're both a lot of things, but certainly not subtle in their approach.

    The Knights of Zakuul have the same view of the force that I would have if I made a Force order. Expect maybe the view on lightsaber colors, but I figured the yellow/gold color lightsabers simply meant they where the prince/princess while purple would have meant king, I wasn’t far off it seems.

  • @mrvwbug4423
    @mrvwbug44233 ай бұрын

    Another oddity of Zakuul, the serpent icon they wore on their armor was symbolic of Zildrog, the Iokath machine god that could destroy the force entirely. That was how Tenebrae destroyed all traces of the force on Nathema, he had control of Zildrog and the gravestone which was Zildrog's "delivery system" and used it to consume all traces of the force on the planet, and imbued himself with it. That was why Nathema was literally a dead hole in the force.

    It may well be that, like other Simian species on Earth, like say anything from a Monkey to a Great Ape, they simply don't have the physical ability in their throats and oesophagus, to be able to form words in the same manner that you or I do. And also, the reverse is true. We couldn't even attempt to speak their language because of the physical structures of our own oesophagus and throats, although none of these limitations on either species has stopped up from learning one another's languages!!

(spoiler, I guess?) ... ... even when you take on the form of Valkorion in your character's mind, he doesn't have a lightsaber - all the powers you get to use are Force abilities. Is Valkorion with a yellow lightsaber - or, really, a lightsaber at all - in a novel/comic?
