10 More Star Wars Fan Theories That Became Fact
7. Barriss Offee Becomes An Inquisitor
Another popular theory being circulated in the lead-up to the live-action Ahsoka show's first season involved the titular character's one-time best bud.
Before that series debuted, former Padawan Barriss Offee (voiced by Meredith Salenger) infamously framed Tano for an attack on the Jedi Temple before eventually being imprisoned by the Jedi. The damage was done, though, as the whole ordeal understandably caused Ahsoka to lose faith in the Order and turn her back on it in the animated series.
And while we would eventually witness what was next for Tano in the years that followed, an Offee who had also grown disillusioned with the Jedi was never seen again.
In the wake of Order 66, Darth Vader would command a bunch of Force-sensitive dark side users known as the Inquisitors, with these individuals hunting down the last remaining Jedi in the galaxy. So, with Offee also not exactly being the biggest fan of the Jedi, it made sense that she would have eventually been recruited by the Empire.
It may not have ultimately occurred in Ahsoka - with Offee not actually being revealed as the person underneath Marrok's mask - but this fan theory was officially made part of the canon during the brilliant Tales of the Empire animated show.
Here, fans see Offee suit up as an Inquisitor, become disenchanted by the Empire, and then eventually find her place as a "healer" before being impaled by the Fourth Sister. It may have taken a while for this intriguing theory to blossom into a compelling three-episode tale, but it was certainly worth the wait.
