Star Wars Legacy which has often been reviewed here on ShowMeScifi is one of the best comic books today and likely the best Star Wars comic book series ever created.
Set far beyond any other Star Wars series -the only lineage connection we’ve had so far is Cade Skywalker – a descendant of Luke.
But what about other Star Wars family trees? Dark Horse Editor Randy Stradley recently tackled that topic in a letter to the editor q&a.
1. Are we going to learn what happened to the Solo family of this time?
There are no plans for an exploration of the Solo lineage for the forseeable future. We’re not in denial about them, it’s just that there isn’t a place for them in the story. Yet.
2. Any chance of running into any other descendents of of any other Star Wars Characters?
Oh yes my friend. Oh, yes.
4. How long are we going to have to wait until we learn who Darth Krayt is under the mask?
The answer will be revealed in issue 15.
Jacen Solo is set to become a to be named Sith in the upcoming Star Wars Legacy of the Force Sacrifice book .
My guess is that Darth Krayt is a descendant of Jacen Solo.
Anyone want to take that bet?

AAAh george – but did Ben actually pass the test on Ziost?
Lumiya tested him sure ..but remember he didn’t kill the girl and thus he’s not really Sith material ..at least not in Exile.
A brother of Kol could be cool…or maybe even Kol’s father?
im pretty sure Krayt is going to have taken the title of Dark Lord in 30 ABY or earlier because thats when they said he started his new sith order. Im pretty sure he fought in the Vong war as well. Ben was only a baby in 30 ABY and i doubt its a clone of Luke or Kol’s brother. Also clones have those short life spans and DK has lived a very long time so I doubt he is a clone. He seems way to powerful to be a clone. However in Bloodlines Boba Fett is dying and he needs to find a clone that is over 100 years old. This clone though is said to be an ARC who fought at Geonisis so I doubt he is DK. The technology he would of used as well to extend his life span probably only works on Jango Fett clones.
showmescifi i have a problem with your theory that would be stupid if krayt was kol’;s father then they would just be repeating the whole darth vadar and luke things and just because jacen didn’t prove to be sith material then doesn’t mean he wont i firmly beleive that jacen solo is or is the master of what we know is darth krayt
Consider the timeline, he can’t be Kol’s father or sibling or any such thing. He was rebuilding his Sith Order as of 30ABY. IF he is not Jacen, then he is somebody who is at LEAST Jacen’s age.. that rules out Ben (this is somebody who fought in the Vong War). Consider that he fought the Vong, is starting the Sith Order at roughly the time of the LOTF book series, and the key.. THE CYBERNETIC EYE as well as THE YUUZHAN VONG CONNECTION. Those are too unique and specific to be random details.
It’s Daye. Gotta be. Captured by Vong, fought them in the war, turned to the dark side at one point, same age as Luke with as much experience with the Empire, Jedi, and Yuuzhan Vong as anybody of that generation.
Gotta be.
Either that or they are making redundant characters… which is just bad writing, and I like to give them more credit than that.
kols dad wasnt born in 30aby…why wouldnt a kaminoan be able to do it for others?mandolorians are human.has jacen been to koriban?
i really dont know.THRAWN perfected cloning technology by using the salamanders from mykyr. that could explain old clones too. this is star wars and clones are a major part of it.
if not a clone then maybe its brakiss (hope not).. maybe its one of the failures luke had early on.. i dont know names .not dolph though hes dead as grievous.i still think it could be an unknown son of luke and callista.
Daye Azur-Jamin… by turning to the dark side.. IS one of the failures that Luke had early on.
I say no chance that it is an unknown child of Callista, because the publishers are essentially trying to ignore that Callista ever existed. She was an embarassing storyline from a time when StarWars writers didnt coordinate what they were writing. The writer that invented Callista (Barbara Hambly) intended for Luke and Callista to live happily ever after etc… but her story was lame and nobody bought it. Besides which, Luke and Callista were only together for a few months, and since StarWars is first and foremost a morality tale directed at children and young adults, I doubt that they will say that Luke (the ultimate poster boy for being a good lil farm boy) had premarital sex or conceived a child out of wedlock.
My HOPE (although now that I see how well that Daye-Azur Jamin fits I doubt that they will go this way), is that the ‘Darth Who’ contest to name Jacen is just a bluff, that he IS Darth Krayt. Darth Krayt being a skywalker is the best for me in keeping with the Legacy Theme.. but I doubt that they will go there as 1) They are saying pretty strongly that Jacen is NOT krayt. B) Daye Azur-Jamin fits the profile perfectly and C) If Jacen was Krayt, it takes away any suspense that Jacen may die in his new stories, and since we will be finding out who Krayt is in the next couple of issues, I doubt it.
=(
On the other hand… keep an eye out for Jedi who lose an eye and have a Vong connection. So far just Daye (its even the same eye).
i bet another thrawn clone(who cares if its a clone he’s the best written character and should have been in ep 3)took a sample of luke and crossed it with vaders dna to make krayt in case he was at some point needed. maybe by crossing the two of them he hoped to keep krayt from going crazy like anakin.it was done in a ong cloning facility because their cloning tech surpasses the kaminoan tech.maybe a kaminoan helped thrawn. when krayt came out he killed evryone in the lab and went aboutfinding sith accolytes.this is crazy but it would be awesome.
Thanks everyone for saying how much of a good choice Daye is. I do not think Krayt is a clone. He seems to powerful and also his quotes sound like someone who is not a clone. I know that kinda sounds wierd. Other good choices for him I would say are Quilan Vos, a person who met Revan some time and realized he needed to make the galxy strong still because Revan had failed in trying to destroy the True Sith, Revan himself, or Daye.
Or what if Krayt is someone who was a familiar with the Vong like Verrege. DK could of been a Jedi padawan on a mission in the outer rim who was captured by the Vong. He probably did what Vererege did and acted like he was on their side and also proabbly went with Vong scouts and played close attention to events going on in the galaxy. Then some time during the Vong war he went renegade from them and maybe he was their when Vererge and Lumiya met and they came up with there plot of breaking Jacen Solo. When that failed and they both died(yes I am guessing they both die and the end of LFL) Krayt came in and used the Sith Order he Vererge and Lumiya had built to bring order to the galaxy.
you people are all upsest with gaye sci fi shit screw all of you?
