It’s tough not to associate Star Wars with movies, as they have always been interconnected. The iconic phrase, “A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away…,” has graced our screens year after year. However, these days, Lucasfilm is producing more TV series than films, capitalizing on the potential of the Disney+ streaming platform. Star Wars: Andor, for instance, has garnered widespread acclaim and even Emmy nominations. Interestingly, this series doesn’t focus on traditional elements like lightsaber battles or Force duels, which some viewers anticipate in Star Wars productions.
Luckily, you’ll find numerous Star Wars series that boast their share of prominent figures. Intriguingly, some of Star Wars’ strongest characters make their debut on television shows. Let me list a few standouts for you.
7) Baylan Skoll
Ahsoka Tano’s pursuit of Grand Admiral Thrawn catches the attention of Morgan Elsbeth, a Nightsister. To protect herself from intruders, she enlists the help of Baylan Skoll, a former Jedi, and his apprentice Shin Hati. Despite not identifying as a Sith, Baylan possesses immense power, overpowering Ahsoka in a lightsaber duel that comes close to defeating her completely. However, he isn’t primarily interested in winning battles; instead, he seeks to uncover the secrets hidden within Peridea.
6) Kanan Jarrus
Similar to Skoll, Kanan Jarrus manages to live through Order 66 and chooses to leave his days as a Jedi in the past. Yet, upon encountering a young Force user named Ezra Bridger, he decides to tap into his power once more and contributes significantly to the growth of the Rebellion. Though not the greatest Jedi duelist in Star Wars lore, Kanan is capable of standing his ground against adversaries such as the Grand Inquisitor and Maul. Moreover, his powerful connection with the Force enables him to return from death as a loth-wolf, providing ongoing guidance for Ezra.
5) The Stranger
As a devoted fan, I can’t help but notice Star Wars’ intriguing narrative about ex-Jedi venturing into the dark side of the Force. In the case of The Stranger, his journey to master Sith arts commences post his departure from the Order, under the tutelage of the wise Darth Plagueis. When he unveils himself in Star Wars: The Acolyte, the Jedi attempt to eliminate him, but his power proves overwhelming. Admittedly, their lack of experience fighting Sith when he emerges may cast a slight doubt on them, yet his swordsmanship skills are undeniably remarkable even in this context.
4) Ahsoka Tano
The TV series based on Star Wars provide a detailed account of Ahsoka’s life, commencing with her time within the Jedi Order during Star Wars: The Clone Wars. As she progresses under Anakin Skywalker’s tutelage, she becomes a skilled fighter. However, after being falsely accused of attacking the Jedi Temple, Ahsoka parts ways with her master. This solitary period enables her to gain deeper insights into the Force and her role in the galaxy, ultimately readying her for battles against formidable adversaries like Maul, Darth Vader, and Grand Admiral Thrawn.
3) Darth Plagueis
In “Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith,” Chancellor Palpatine discloses some details about his past master, hinting that the man was fixated on defying death. This character, Plagueis, gets introduced in the series “The Acolyte.” Although he doesn’t exhibit any typical Sith abilities at this point, there’s an undeniable presence about him. While Plagueis may not have left a significant mark thus far, his role in training both the Stranger and Palpatine earns him a notable place among the ranks.
2) Mother Talzin
On the planet Dathomir, renowned for its prolific creation of influential “Star Wars” figures like Maul, Asajj Ventress, and the formidable group known as the Nightsisters, led by Mother Talzin. This witch gathers all the Nightsisters on Dathomir, elevating them to one of the galaxy’s most potent forces. It required the combined efforts of Palpatine and Grievous to defeat her, as she possessed the ability to summon the deceased and wield powerful magic.
1) The Ones
It might seem like an easy way out to rank all three Mortis deities at the highest level, but they typically appear together. They make their debut in “Star Wars: The Clone Wars,” with the Father attempting to persuade Anakin to replace him. Although his scheme fails, during their time on Mortis, Anakin and his companions discover the extraordinary abilities of these entities. Notably, Mortis has a significant relationship with the Force, and the gods who govern this planet leverage this connection.
