It’s been a while since I have published my personal Canon list with my old account, and my personal Canon has changed since then. Right now, my Canon consists of three different timelines:

  • First timeline: This timeline contains the Original Trilogy, the Prequel Trilogy, and everything published in the old Expanded Universe from 1991 to 2014, minus the post-NJO novels, Dark Empire, Crimson Empire, The Force Unleashed II, the 2008 Clone Wars TV show, and every comic and novel that was related to the show. Basically, this timeline is the one I have published with my old account here.
  • Second timeline: This timeline is very similar to the first timeline. However, the Old Republic MMO and its tie-in novels are eliminated, which means that Revan’s motivations for turning to the Dark Side are exactly the ones that were described by Kreia. He was not manipulated by Vitiate, he turned to the Dark Side by his own choice.
  • Third timeline: This timeline is also similar to the first timeline, just like the previous one. The Force Unleashed II and the post-NJO novels don’t exist in this timeline, too. However, in this timeline the Chosen One is not a single person (Anakin), but rather it is the Skywalker family who are the Chosen One as a whole. Therefore, the Sith are able to return after Anakin’s death without contradicting the Prophecy, which means that the Dark Empire Trilogy, the Crimson Empire Trilogy and the Legacy comics happen.

I would also like to create a fourth timeline with the pre-1999 Expanded Universe and a rewritten version of the Prequels. But the truth is, I’m too attached to the Prequels, so I could never replace them entirely.
