Jacen Solo's Path: Good Bad or Ugly?
Jacen's History and Path

Jacen Solo: Jedi Knight, Pilot, Brother, Nephew,Son....Sith Lord!? That's right kiddos, Jacen has "fully embraced the Sith Teachings,walking in chin up,chest out". Like his Grandfather before him. He will stop at nothing to secure his galaxy for Tenel and Allana. So how did this happen? A great man, with powerful powers... turning into a Sith Lord...? Well, in a galaxy far...far away, there was the end of the Vong War. Jacen decided that he would go and study the "true nature" of the force.. Among the places and people he visited to see,and learn, were The Jensaari,The Aing-Ti,Witches Of Dathomir, and The Adepts Of The White Current. After visiting,and learning from each the Swarm War broke out. During this time, in which he fought, two major things happened in Jacen's life: The birth of Allana his daughter, with Tenel Ka, and he began Unofficially Training Ben at the end of the War.

Jacen was the only Force-user Ben would trust. In 4 years, Ben and Jacen went into a unnofficial partnership. In 40 ABY, The Second Corellian Insurection began. Ben and Jacen were pivotal in destroying CenterPoint Station. After doing so, Jacen meet Luiyma while trying to see the meaning of tassels. He and Ben went to her lair, where Jacen took his first step into the Sith by killing a fellow Jedi name Nellani. Ben was mind-wiped by Jacen,for the second time, the first time after going to Hapes with Jacen, and he knew nothing of what Jacen did.

Later that year, Jacen was unsure about becoming a Sith Lord,so, he Force Walk to when his GrandFather Purged the Order, and felt, he must bring peace to the galaxy like his grandfather. Jacen and Ben were given charge of The GA Special Guard, which took POWs for the GA. Jacen then convinced Ad.Nithal, New Supreme Commander, and Cal Omas, to Blockade Corellia. They did and Jacen ran a mission to destroy vital supplies with Rogue Squad. Now, after returning, he has a brief confrontation with Luke and Mara about Ben. He wants Luke to tell him he senses he is dark but, doesn't.

Then,while trying to learn information about the three main terrorist He,Ben and GAG caught, he he drives so deep into Ayiln's head, he kills her...and he got no information from her. This act of cold-blood rush,stuns, and scares Ben so much he starts to doubt his own hero. Jacen then meets with Lumyia,in which he is told he must double his training with her in case,because Luke now knows of her, she is found. He decides to go to The Jedi Temple to "time-walk" again to see his grandfather. He realizes that his grandfather was left alone,without anyone.

Going on another mission with Rogue Squadron, he ordered Jaina to finish off a civilian vessel that had be armed,but, she wouldn't. He suspended her. He felt bad about this,but, he knew it must be done. Leia called Jacen asking him about the bounty hunter he had captured because it was Fett's daughter, and he had helped them kill Sal-Solo. He only told them,then, that she died while being questioned. He brought the body to his Parents, where Han told him he was a monster and didn't know Jacen anymore.

He was hurt by this,but knew he must let go to improve the galaxy. He went back to Lumyia, who told him about his final test, the last tassel of the Sith Artifact: Immortalize The One You Love. Jacen isn't sure how,or if Lumyia knows about Tenel and Allana,but worries that its them he must kill.

Well, Tempest is now out- Here's Jacen's path now, as seen in the book.

Jacen Solo is still the Commander of GAG, and Ben his help and apprentice. While trying to discuss hidden locations of Terrorist with the World Brian, whom he be-friended in the Vong Wars, Alema Rar, who has been spying on him to get to Leia Solo for revenge, misses her attack on him, and critically hurts the World Brain. Had Lumiya not stopped him, he would have killed Alema, however, he swears revenge on herself, and the Bothans he believes were under the attack.

He strings Ben along while meeting with him. What he doesn't know is Alema and Tresina Lobi are watching him. His Master kills Master Lobi with Alema. Soon after, Jacen is given command of his own Star Destroyer- Anakin Solo. He fights in the Battle Of Hapes, and tricks Masters Skywalker to fighting Luyima. They almost die, and Jacen is force to strike a deal with Alema Rar. Jacen's parent's, leaving Hapes, are fired upon by Jacen's command.
As of Exile:

Jacen Solo has sent Ben Skywalker to Ziost. Meanwhile he's having a tough time with deciding who to sacrifice. His actions in leaving his parents and other family members showed who his loyalty lay to... along with the chilling last line of the book: " Good bye mom, good bye Dad." He now will take his mantle of Dark Lord Of The Sith with the name we picked for him!

New Powers ( As of 40 ABY)

Flow-Walking
Making himself disappear from the force
Force Lighting
Force Grip/Choke
Battle Meditation

I'll update her when the next book,Sacrifice, comes out. I'm looking forward to it!

Good summary on Jacen after the New Jedi Order :) It will be interesting to see how far he'll go in his Sith training and how Ben will react to it after some actions Jacen committed in Bloodlines (I'll wait until your finish to go there :D) Hope you enjoy the ending of Bloodlines and have the same impatient feeling I have for Tempest to come out!

Yes. Very true,Jacen, unlike most Sith is fully embracing the Teachings. I think I will use it.

Imortalize The One You Love.

It just sounds good coming out of the mouth you know....."Imortalize The One You Love."
doesn't sound bad at all.... of course it would be evil if he goes through with it... and then he would be a full sith and fully evil... but that doesn't have to make him off of his path of destiny. I for one am fully looking forward to him going all the way. I hope he can find a way other than this to do it.... so he doesn't have to kill them.... but we will find that out when the time comes... Maybe he will "try" to kill them but at the same time let them excape and run off somewhere... oh well we'll find out soon enough....

good summary SOS

Imortalize The One You Love.

I don't know if my last comment went through or not so I am going to say again in short form that I like the way "Imortalize The One You Love." sounds... I hope he doesn't have to kill them to reach full sith potential and finds another way... but if he must do it then he must do it... we will see...

Jacen is fast becoming a fave character of mine I have enjoyed watching him change from just a jedi to something far more interesting. And even tho he has embraced his destiny to follow the sith teachings I feel that we are just now only scratching the surface of his destiny by the way fantastic blog

thanks for the props but i feel it ages me. Oh well. I have a comment

In the book it reads immortalize the one you love. One as far as I know is still singular. Jacen assumes it means Tenel Ka and Allana but that would make no sense.
It would have to read immortalize the ones you love. What if he has to kill Jaina yes they are estranged from each other, but...... he still loves his sister. her death at his hands would be tragic. but it is just a thought.

Very nice detailed summary of Jacen! Another force power could be force phantom's if Lumiya teaches him.
