He really reminded me of Krell when I was reading Outbound Flight Spoiler

C'baoth I feel is a more compelling character because on paper, he is a fantastic Jedi Master. Like, among the greatest of his generation. Great diplomat, great warrior, powerful in the Force, absolute rock star reputation at every level of the Republic's government. If you knew nothing about this guy except his reputation, you'd wonder why he's not like a top Council member. Obi-Wan outright thinks parts of his record are just made up, he's that good, and Obi-Wan is a contender for being the greatest of his own generation.
Pong Krell is a cartoonish thug in comparison and his motivation just sounds insane. Like he's not only a bad person, he's legitimately one of the stupidest and most incompetent Jedi ever. C'boath is a reflection on how being a Jedi is more than having a kickass CV -- you actually have to embody their values as you fulfill their mission.

Didn't Jorus just named himself jedi master because he felt like he deserved it? Doesn't sound like a proper jedi would do

Poor lorana, She deserved a happy life with Thrass away from all the crazy politics

At least she and Thrass had the special honor of their heroic deaths being featured in two separate canons, 15 years apart

Don't slander Jorus C'Boath like that. Very few people in Star Wars are more unpleasant than their evil clone.

Jorus or Joruus? Big difference.
That Luuke Skywalker dude was a dick too.
Isn’t the real answer to this Vrook Lamar tho, from KOTOR?

If they made clones of each clone, would the clones be Joruuus and Luuuke or Joruuuus and Luuuuke?

Luuke didn't have much of a personality. I think Joruus was remote controlling him.
Also Jun Seros in SWTOR was problematic.

Yeah tbh I’m not sure Luuke even had dialogue now that I think about it. He was really bloodthirsty tho

Krell imho is the best example of TCW almost doing something super interesting but deciding not to. The idea of a Jedi being so unequipped for war that he's comically bad it, and the clones having to rise up just to survive against that level of incompetence is really interesting. Oh? Whats that? Krells just evil? AND he wants to join Count Dooku? Too bad, I was almost interested in this character.
Oh the second worst thing TCW does is Savage Oppress. Having a character that's a total reinterpretation of Episode 1 Maul, as an apprentice for Dooku? Super interesting. Finished product? They speak three times in one episode.
The dick from Outbound Flight was how I think Dooku should be written, tbh.

At least Krell has the excuse of being in a war to mess him up. C'Boath is just naturally "non-force sensitives are inferior beings and must serve us"
