Is Zule really a Falleen?

She sure doesn't look green and scaly...was there a reason for that in the comics?Kuralyov 05:45, 12 Aug 2005 (UTC)

  • Not all Falleen are green and scaly. QuentinGeorge 05:55, 12 Aug 2005 (UTC)
  • There is an excellent reason: she is not green nor reptilian because she is not a Falleen :-) User:Zarken 04:43, 25 Aug 2005
    • To QuentinGeorge:

Examples of non-official sites: Zule is a Zeltron - http://users.pandora.be/iradonian/jedi-archives/xiss_zule.html Zule is a Falleen - http://users.pandora.be/iradonian/jedi-archives/xiss_zule.html I've only seen that she is a Falleen on non-official forums, so I might be wrong, but she is not a Falleen. It seems there is no official source about the character Zule Xiss' race. The comic Jedi Shaak Ti features a similar character, a female Zeltron (Lyshaa). Old Marvel comics show Zeltron characters too. Finally, Star Wars d20 (Alien guide) describe Falleen and Zeltrons. The same way the official source, http://www.starwars.com/databank/species/falleen/eu.html "The Falleen are exotic, reptilian humanoids with scaled skin, cold blood, and pigmentation that alters according to mood." She looks like a Zeltron according to canon material. Star Wars is not a science, anyway, sorry if I'm wrong ;-) User:Zarken 27 Aug 2005

  • Unofficial sites aren't canon. And it doesn't matter what *you* think she looks like. She's nothing in personality like a Zeltron, anyway. QuentinGeorge 23:20, 27 Aug 2005 (UTC)
  • I think it was the inside cover which identified her species. QuentinGeorge 23:33, 27 Aug 2005 (UTC)
  • For Pete's sake, people, couldn't you finally try to decide what she is? Surely there are more productive things to do in this wiki than change Zule's species from Zeltron to Fallen and back. If her species isn't specified by any official source, then we should just let it be "Unknown." "I think it was..." isn't good enough source (no offence QuentinGeorge). Zule sure doesn't look like any of the female Falleen I've seen in the comics, so I'd put my credits on Zeltron, but hey, you never know. --Tinwe 18:38, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
    • I do remember Xizor turning a shade of red in the Shadows comic, but at the time, he was shotting out a lot of pheremones at Leia. That could give some credence to her being a Falleen, but it also raises a question of what she was doing in her off time. -- SFH 05:32, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
    • Well she is not scaley, and never green I think Fallen is pretty much out. Unsigned comment by Purpilian (talk • contribs)
    • Dude she is definatly a Zeltron look at her skin--CHIMES 20:47, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
      • Well maybe a Cross-Breed?? Inherited Zeltron Skin?? but for the moment i'll leave it as a Faleen. Unsigned comment by Ruffles (talk • contribs)
        • For her to be a crossbreed is biologically unlikely, since Zeltrons are mammals and Faleen are reptiles who just look like mammals. More likely, some Faleen just have red skin. — Silly Dan 13:01, 9 February 2006 (UTC)
          • I know.. but anyway maybe Zule is from another Race of Faleen?? Unsigned comment by Ruffles (talk • contribs)
            • Faleen can be green or red, but Zule posseses none of the traits that would identify her as Falleen. Falleen have small scales all over their bodies, slightly clawed fingers and toes, and prominent facial and spinal ridges. She looks a lot like the Zeltron, Lyshaa.--Darth Oblivion 12:20, 18 June 2006 (UTC)

Her arms

Why are her arms covered in warts or something in the 2nd picture? Is it because of swamp gas or something? -Aiddat 12:27, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

  • thats exactly why, yes she does look more like a Zeltron...even authors, artists make mistakes? canon error :P Jedi Dude 12:33, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

Falleen?

She?! A falleen? Dont think so! LOL! Unsigned comment by 90.227.198.212 (talk • contribs)

  • It sure would be nice to have a citation for that Falleen thing. How serious should it be taken, it sounds more like a mistake than hard canon. Exactly what issue was it in? There are well over a hundred. Evir Daal 10:50, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Comparing Falleen and Zeltron

Ok, I will Leave This Information here. While I am not sure What Zulu's species is, she deviates Greatly from the Normal Falleen. Below I compare Zulu withe baseline Falleen, and baseline Zeltron:

  • Skincolor: Zulu-Red, Falleen-Red possable(changes color), Zeltron-Red
  • Pheromone Ability: Zulu-Not Displayed, Falleen-Yes, Zeltron-Yes
  • Fingers: Zulu-5, Falleen-4(clawed), Zeltron-5
  • Scales: Zulu-None, Falleen-Small Scales, Zeltron-None
  • Ears: Zulu-Yes, Falleen-None, Zeltron-Yes
  • Scales: Zulu-None, Falleen-Small Scales, Zeltron-None
  • Hair: Zulu-Full Hair, Falleen-Yes(possably huge bald but yes), Zeltron-Full Hair
  • Backbone Ridge: Zulu-None, Falleen-Yes(at least Xizor has it), Zeltron-None
  • Personality: This varies in a species, not much use to compare this with nything.
  • In Short: Either the source makes a mistake, or she is a Offshoot/sub-species of some kind with severe deviation. Granted, offshoot happens, as with the Arkanion case. Unsigned comment by PoiuyWired (talk • contribs)

Fact File

In which issue of the Fact Files is her species mentioned? I just read every single one of them, but couldn't find the reference. All I found about her species is this comment by Leland Chee from the DarkHorse.com Forums. --Borsk Fey'lya Talk 10:58, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

  • It does sound a little strange. Should we change species to "unknown" until someone can provide a citation? Apart from that article (if it even exists), there's nothing to suggest she'd be Falleen. Commander Daal Imperial Emblem 14:30, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

Her species

OK, I don't want to start an edit war here. But once again, author intent isn't the same as canon. I e, script may have it she's Falleen, but she isn't if portrayed as something else IU and never referred to as such. The Chee entry didn't really clear anything up. Her species should be listed as unknown. Commander Daal Imperial Emblem 13:47, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

Fallen Jedi

Should she not be in the list of "fallen jedi", because she was slipping close to the darkness? Like Depa Billaba before she felt into coma.
