#woswaw: Day 1 – “Don’t look back”

-Tahl-

It’s day 3 already, but I had no time for anything yesterday or on Monday, and I just had to participate in this awesome event! The ladies of SW are to badass to miss :D

So here’s a Tahl for you… although I’m pretty sure she’s not canon anymore. Oh well.

When I read the JA series (well, part of it), I was really impressed by her. While trying to negotiate a peace between two opposing parties, Tahl gets captured, tortured and blinded. After her rescue and subsequent return to the temple, she has to adjust to a completely new way of of living and fighting, but she doesn’t allow herself to be crushed by her loss of sight.


Meet Tahl!

She’s from Jedi Apprentice. She’s disabled (she was blinded in battle) and obviously she’s a WoC, and she was Qui-Gon’s canonical One True Love.

She’s also really cool and snarky and badass, so I thought it would be nice if other Star Wars fans knew of her existence
