What if leia turned to the dark side

The emotional impact of this discovery is explored in Claudia Gray's novel Bloodline. Set decades after Return of the Jedi , it sees Leia reflect back on how her life had been shaped by the Force. She came to recognize that the Force had always been with her, that it had subtly guided her all her life, and that there had been many occasions where she had unknowingly drawn upon it.

Disturbingly, Leia realized she had actually done so while rescuing Han from Jabba the Hutt ; she had channeled the dark side when she had attacked Jabba on his Sail Barge, using it to enhance her strength and allow her to choke the Hutt to death.

Luke was always concerned about the possibility he would fall to the dark side, but there is a sense in which Leia was the one most obviously vulnerable.

Fierce and independent, Leia had a furious temper, one fueled by her anger at the injustices she saw in the galaxy. As righteous as Leia's anger may have been, anger is still of the dark side. The idea she had been unknowingly drawing on the dark side terrified Leia, because it suggested she was truly her father's daughter, and she feared following in Darth Vader's footsteps.

In Bloodline , Leia was forced to admit to herself she had no idea why Anakin Skywalker fell to the dark side in the first place, and she dared wonder if he had done so for the very best of reasons — whether out of righteous anger or even out of love. She was not far from the truth. Ken Leung will throw her a towel and say, "Wipe yourself off man, you're bleeding. I want another Postcards from the Edge!!!! The pressure is too much.

Now his failure is complete. If you will not turn to the Dark Side Registered: Jan 1, It's not an appealing idea to me to be honest. Besides, and i'm not bashing Carrie her, i can't see her pulling it off.

Alien Vanguard , Nov 10, Well,yes,I would not like to see Leia on the dark side. But on the other hand,seeing Leia shooting some imba force lightning from her hands, would make the movie even more epic,than it is already.

Registered: Sep 2, That would be crazy! I really doubt it though. Registered: Nov 7, May be Leia still has the voice box off Boussh's helmet and uses it with a holographic alien face pretending to be this Snoke. Django Fett , Nov 11, Registered: Feb 14, Leia being a secret Sith lord is too much to swallow. Rumors do seem to hint that she is becoming more morally grey, but that will probably make her more of an 'ends justify the means character.

Just minor levitation. Registered: Nov 3, This is Star Wars. Prior to writing online, he worked in academia. He's currently trying to work his way through a pile of unread books that threatens to come crashing down, burying everything he loves and cares about, including his cat.
