Here you go! The Fandom Reva Backstory Theory:

Why start the Kenobi show with a scene of Order 66 at the Temple focused on a group of younglings there? Obi-Wan isn’t there and everyone knows how Order 66 went down from RotS. We get that brief scene and then bam! we’re with sad Kenobi in the sand 10 years later. We don’t go back to that scene at all while spending the show so far with Kenobi. He has no personal connection to that scene itself.

That opening scene establishes that there were Jedi younglings at the Temple 10 years ago who managed to escape. We don’t get a really good look at the ones we see but they likely represent the idea Force-sensitive kids survived and escaped Order 66 even if the adults protecting them didn’t.

10 years later we see Reva, an Inquisitor who:

- the other Inquisitors say they “found in the gutter”

- seems very personally motivated by anger with the Jedi and Obi-Wan in particular

- looks upset and then furious when she runs across evidence of a clandestine rebel operation designed to protect Force-sensitive children from the Empire.

- says that the Jedi are cowards and that they “abandoned” everyone.

Theory: Reva was a youngling at the Temple during Order 66, fled into Coruscant homeless and orphaned, and after what was likely an awful year or longer living on the streets she was found by the Empire and trained (traumatized) into becoming a Sith/Inquisitor.

Reva wants revenge on Obi-Wan because she sees the destruction of the Jedi, and her own life, as 100% his fault because his Padawan fell and took everyone with him.

Oh this is very much what I had speculated in the case that she was part of the Order! It's only 10 years later though and those kids were around 10? She looks a little older than 20ish, but ages in star wars have always been whack and I am admittedly not an expert at estimating ages. But even so, this would be a cool back story for them to explore. 

She could also have been kidnapped or separated from the Order before the end of the war and maybe they weren’t able to find her or she wasn’t able to get back to them, and then suddenly they were gone.

I’m also intrigued by the possibility that she wasn’t part of the Order, that she was a force sensitive who was found elsewhere and trained, or that she was a force user not aligned with the Jedi specifically. Maybe she wasn’t found or chosen for Jedi training when she was a baby and resents that for some reason. Maybe she was aligned with a different group of force users, though that seems like a lot to explore and would distract from the show’s focus (as fascinating as I would find it). There’s also the possibility that she figured out ways to interact with the Force on her own before she was found by the Inquisitors. 

There are so many possibilities and I find it entertaining to explore them.

“the inquisitors are genuine threats and they all have rich, complex histories” “the inquisitors are a lesson in obsolescence because they’re flagrant and useless by the time of the OT” “the inquisitors are probably so cringefail because vader allows them to be to amuse himself” consider. three things can be true at once.

I can’t be mad that the Inquisitors seem to have figured out who Darth Vader really is because the show explains exactly how it happened:  They’re all vying to be the one to bring Obi-Wan Kenobi in, they’ll literally stab each other for the chance to be the one to impress Vader, which means that Vader is just as obsessed with Obi-Wan as he ever was, and no former Jedi turned Inquisitor can hear Darth Vader talk about Obi-Wan Kenobi, can hear him bring up Obi-Wan in every single goddamned conversation like he does in the movies despite that nobody was fucking talking about him, and not get smacked in the face with it like a giant wet dish rag like “ohhhhhh I have heard this monologue before, goddammit, that’s fucking Anakin Skywalker, isn’t it, isn’t it”.

Those takes about the Jedi Order requiring you to “forgo your heritage” never made actual sense; we ARE introduced to Jedi characters who do things according to their people’s cultural tradition to the point of dressing or tattooing themselves accordingly. Sometimes a combination of both. Being a Jedi doesn’t actually mean forgo those connections.

You literally see a whole-ass government that actually suppresses the very things they attempt to blame the Jedi for & see it in how they dress. The Empire actively stomped out cultural traditions & had people ESPECIALLY in their military to conform to certain dressing standards deliberately.

[apas-75]

So last night I finished reading Rise of the Red Blade for TotE Vibes Research purposes and the two Inquisitor characters in it really illustrate exactly why I think Barriss is going to survive and escape them.

Because the thing is that there are two kinds of Inquisitors! The ones who volunteered, and the ones who...didn’t. Iskat (RotRB’s focus character) perfectly exemplifies the first type: she had some traumatizing experiences at a young age, fell through a number of institutional cracks in the Order, had a really terrible master (meet me in the pit, Sember Vey), everyone was too busy to give her the follow-up they would under normal circumstances, Palpatine had an agent actively gathering information about her and pushing her to become Worse—she was a pre-selected candidate who was offered the choice to come quietly when Order 66 hit, and she took it. By that point all of her issues and doubts had been exacerbated to the point where it wasn’t hard for her to make herself hate the Jedi, and then she rationalized her way through any indication that her freedom was a lie and doubled her way down right into hell.

By contrast: Tualon, Iskat’s crechemate situationship guy. He had some issues but was not someone on Palpatine’s radar; Iskat left him to die in Order 66 and he survived getting shot by darksiding out about her betrayal. Because of that he was taken alive and they did some shit to him. When Iskat runs into him at the Inquisitor HQ after he’s freshly-inducted he can barely remember why he hates her, or anything else from before he was taken. He woke up in the room where you fight Trilla and they fully shattered him and glued a semblance of a person back together out of the wreckage, just COMPLETELY Winter Soldiered the guy, and the only way he had to cope with it is to lean into a weird codependent situationship with Iskat.

And that distinction’s always been there with the Inquisitors; you have the true believers who ended up hating the Jedi or wanted to go on a power trip (or had the kind of revenge plan only a 12 year old could come up with and then stick to for a decade, in one case) and didn’t need any additional coercion to volunteer, and you have the ones that they broke. In the former group you’ve got the Grand Inquisitor, Reva/Third, Lyn/Fourth*, Fifth, and Iskat/Thirteenth. For the most part they’re certified freaks, but they came by it naturally. (Reva’s a different flavor.) In the latter, you’ve got Trilla/Second, Seventh, Masana/Ninth, Tualon, and probably most of the others. They all got disassembled and reassembled without much care given to the process and are all Coping with it badly in different ways, whether by deciding it’s Empowering, Actually (Trilla & Seventh) or by becoming completely jaded about everything (Masana & Tualon).

(*We obviously don’t know a lot about Fourth yet, but the fact that she shows up to recruit Barriss while rocking yellow dark side eyes before ROTS is even over tells me she’s definitely a volunteer.)

All this is to say: The Grand Inquisitor is making a colossal mistake with Barriss from the drop, and it’s why I think she’s going to win their battle of wits and escape. Because he is treating her like she is an Iskat and she could not be any farther from it.

He sends Lyn to get her to come quietly! They actively withhold information from her about what happened to the Jedi and what her expected role in it is! That’s not how they recruit the ones they think will be a problem; if that were the case she would have been stunned out of hand and woken up on a rack.

Instead, he’s giving her special attention,, he’s training her—he doesn’t think they need to break her. She’s just got a few...pesky hang-ups from her time as a Jedi that need ironing out**. He’s projecting on her; he doesn’t just want an empty shell holding a lightsaber—he wants Barriss Offee, loyally kneeling at his side, fully believing in their mission. She’s his favorite.

(**That “mercy only breeds defeat” line isn’t just a generic darksidism; I’m pretty sure he’s directly critiquing how Barriss got caught because she showed mercy to Asajj Ventress.)

And surely that's something he can turn her into, right? Because she hates the Jedi, right? She attacked them, she outsmarted them, obviously she’d be down for wanting to wipe them out! He was there when she confessed and, like pretty much everyone else in the room save for Ahsoka, he didn’t hear a single word that she said—just what he wanted her to be saying. He’s got a deeply incorrect idea of her, and that idea is “she’s just like me for real.”

And he’s wrong, because the Inquisitorius is everything she feared the Jedi Order was becoming—literally, an army fighting for the dark side—and the Empire is everything she knew the Republic was becoming. She might be prone to despairing, it might in some hypothetical be possible to get her into the same resigned despair trap as Anakin, but she would never actually want to serve the Empire, and they don't think they'll have to try hard to convince her to.

She loves the Jedi, she loved being a Jedi, she wanted to save them. She wants to be one again more than anything even though right now she thinks she doesn’t deserve it, thinks that she’s already too broken to reclaim what she was. But I think being surrounded by actual fallen Jedi and being told over and over again that she’s like them is, in the end, going to be what reminds her that she never stopped being a Jedi in the first place.

And as long as she can make sure her captors don't realize that's true until it's too late, she'll be home free.

I was a bit stressed yesterday, who knew going over ideas for an "evil Kanan AU" would have such relaxing qualities 😭

Midnight ideas under the cut ~

I feel like it could go both ways, the Empire killing Kanan or converting him - killing certainly saves time, but I feel like at this point there aren't that many Inquisitors left, with Cal hanging around, and there is the connection to his crew - would throw them off focus when they see the man they left for dead - imagine the angst potential

Why Malachor well, everyone was kinda there at one point heh. Plus, I think this could very well end up with Kanan still being blinded- but that's for another day.

Also Ezra doesn't have his scars, he never went after Kanan = the Grand Inquisitor never got the drop on him.

Aight, that's it for my nerd out.

Okay but you want a really neat cinematic parallel?

Bare feet, stripped of any defence, in permanent danger of being electrocuted if they fight back, all of them in perfect uniform arrangement. Subjugated. And then we get the shot of the feet of the Ferrix citizens rioting to take back their home as a direct antithesis and I'm unhinged about it

Y'all are incredible at finding shit like this, my god
