Thorpe was a Jedi Master of the Jedi Order who created the Unsolved Thorpe Theorem, a hyperspace plotting conundrum which was posed to Jedi Padawan learners. Their work was included in one of the sacred Jedi texts kept by Jedi Master Luke Skywalker during his exile on the planet Ahch-To. The books were eventually taken by the Jedi Rey[1] in 34 ABY.[2]
Behind the scenes
Thorpe was mentioned in the 2019 reference book Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: The Visual Dictionary, written by Pablo Hidalgo.[1] The name "Thorpe" dates back to the earliest iterations of what would eventually become the 1977 film Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope. In an outline titled Journal of the Whills (Part) I, written by George Lucas in 1973, mention of the character Chuiee Two Thorpe is included in the first sentence of the story.[3]
