Title: Pellaeon
Post by: Meyer on October 13, 2007, 02:38:16 AM

Why did Pellaeon become such an written character? Did Zahn intend that Pellaeon would be in more books than his own T-Trilogy?

It was probably that he was just the most recognized highest ranking Imperial there was after Thrawn, so people chose him to lead the Empire

yeah. but it's interesting. First time I read the T-trilogy I wondered that will Pellaeon be in some other book. and he was.

Zahn's writing style makes his characters "real" and understandable, which makes them great for other authors to use, since they already have a defined persona..

All of Zahn's characters have been used in other books.

good point. but I think that it was likely that others would return as they were on the "good" side. Pellaeon was just an imperial officer.

But he was the main Imperial officer (apart from Thrawn), so it was quite likely that they would bring him back.

Pallaeon was the most fleshed out, he was practically always there with Thrawn.. The others mentioned, from the other Star Destroyers were really just named..

yeah. And I would like to know more about Pellaeon. about his time in the clone wars, early service in Empire and after his promotion to supreme commander of the Empire.
