Message: <blockquote data-quote="Celebrim" data-source="post: 8826936" data-attributes="member: 4937">You know that scene in Clerks where they are discussing whether or not the destruction of the second Death Star is a morally clean act since the second Death Star still being under construction would have had millions of civilian contractors on board, and the contractor comes into the store and discusses the morality of his work and whether a civilian contractor is morally culpable for the contracts he takes.Well, we actually know that even the first Death Star had a very large number of civilian contractors aboard doing things as mundane as catering, so you could have a character who is the family member of one of those civilian contractors for whom the ax that forgets is Luke Skywalker.  Imagine there is like a teenager aboard the Death Star whose job it is to load lunches for the officers on to Mouse droids for delivery, and there is like this dad who is dead set on vengeance because, "Those terrorists killed my baby!" and he becomes this pro-Imperial vigilante that is out for vengeance - like a Charles Bronson Death Wish style character whose attacking the smugglers that make up the logistics backbone of the Rebellion, and unlike the ISB he's actually good at it because he does human intel well.  And then he could like on his journey meet an orphan from Alderaan and the two could heal together as the dad comes to realize that the world is not the morally simple universe he believed, and if anything as he learns the reality of the Empire's impact outside of the shelter of the Core Worlds, he's actually on the dark side of the spectrum.</blockquote>
