It’s been a while since I last shared my personal Star Wars Canon with my old account, and my perspective has evolved since then. Currently, my Canon consists of three distinct timelines:
- First Timeline: This timeline includes the Original Trilogy, the Prequel Trilogy, and the entire Expanded Universe published between 1991 and 2014. However, it excludes the post-NJO novels, Dark Empire II, Empire’s Ens, the Crimson Empire Trilogy, The Force Unleashed II, the 2008 Clone Wars TV series, and any related comics or novels. Essentially, this timeline aligns with the one I previously shared with my old account here.
- Second Timeline: This timeline closely resembles the first, but omits The Old Republic MMO and its tie-in novels. Consequently, Revan’s turn to the Dark Side is explained solely through Kreia’s perspective — he made the choice himself rather than being manipulated by Vitiate.
- Third Timeline: Like the first timeline, this one excludes the post-NJO novels and The Force Unleashed II. However, in this version, the Chosen One is not a singular figure (Anakin) but rather the Skywalker family as a whole. This reinterpretation of the Prophecy allows the Sith to return after Anakin’s death without contradicting its terms, paving the way for Dark Empire II, Empire’s End, the Crimson Empire Trilogy, and the Legacy comics to take place.
I’ve also considered creating a fourth timeline centered on the pre-1999 Expanded Universe and a reimagined version of the Prequel Trilogy. However, I’m deeply attached to the Prequels and find it difficult to fully replace them.
