Heck, the idea of an Imperial Inquisitor first originated in the WEG RPG source books. The books that provided the backbone of the EU itself.

Of course, the Inquisitors of the EU are far more interesting -- not to mention better designed -- than this boring corduroy-faced, third-rate Count Orlok-knockoff.

But I digress ... 

 Well that's a textbook case of judging a book by its cover if I've ever seen one.

He's a Pau'an as introduced in ROTS. They all look like that and that look was undoubtedly the reason why they chose that species for the character.

Yes, I know he's a Pau'an and that his race wasn't created for the show -- I still don't like his design (I don't think I need to go into detail on why.).

BUT, that doesn't say anything about how the character will actually be depicted. You nor I or anyone else not involved with the production really know anything about the character yet.

True, he may turn out to be an excellent character. If so, then perhaps I'll be able to forgive his horribly lame, unoriginal design -- at least in part.

He just might actually end up being like the Inquisitors as depicted in the EU. That's entirely a possibility. Heck, in the video where they talk about the character it's mentioned that he's not a Sith but that he does tap into the Darkside.

I'm sure he'll serve the same purpose as the EU Inquistors. However, he still won't dress as well as they do.
