Star Wars VII: 10 Expanded Universe Characters Who Deserve To Appear

7. Kyp Durron

Kyp Durron One of the most powerful members of the New Jedi Order, Kyp Durron is also one of the most controversial. While training at Luke Skywalker's Jedi Academy, Durron was corrupted by the spirit of ancient Sith master Exar Kun who led him on a revenge mission that annihilated an entire planetary system. Although he was later rescued from Kun by his fellow Jedi, many in the New Republic branded Durron as a war criminal, making Durron work tirelessly to restore his image. He proved imperative in the fight against the Yuuzhan Vong and became one of the first Jedi masters of the New Jedi Order. Durron would allow Star Wars to portray a darker, more conflicted Jedi who knows from experience the dangers of the Dark Side. Who Should Play them: Christian Bale

I love movies, literature, history, music and the NBA. I love all things nerdy including but not limited to Star Wars, Star Trek, Lord of the Rings, and Firefly. My artistic idols are Dylan, Dostoevsky, and Malick and my goal in life is to become like Bernard Black from Black Books. When I die, I hope to turn into the space baby from 2001: A Space Odyssey.
