[edit] Survival

Does any source mention how he survived the destruction of his gunship? —Unsigned comment by 69.164.73.66 (talk • contribs).

[edit] Battle of Geonosis (Dutch)

Dit is een weequay jedi die aanwezig is bij de eerste aanvalsgolf op Geonosis. Hij vecht met vele Jedi's te samen in de Arena of Death totdat ze volledig omsingeld zijn. Sora Bulq houdt het tot het einde vol. —Unsigned comment by 82.95.250.185 (talk • contribs).

[edit] Sora and Ti dueled but after the ensuing duel Sora escaped knowing that he was no match for the powerful Jedi.

When did this happen? Looking at Sora's list of appearances, I have read every single one of them and can't remember this. There is nothing of this on Shaak Ti's page, either. —Unsigned comment by 204.169.61.247 (talk • contribs).

[edit] Sora Bulq Using Force Lightning

Havac banned me because I kept changing the article and saying that Bulq used lightning during his final duel with Vos. He called me "Anon", so now I've logged in with to account so he can stop that "anon" nonsense that officials around here seem to always want to use as a dis. Now, he also locked the article so it can't be changed again. Here are the links to where Sora uses lightning:

[1]

As we see later on, "Sith Lord Quinlan" is really Sora Bulq.

[2]

AT least people will know that he can use lightning now, which is all that matters. I only want people to know everything about Sora. Again, if you look at the panels, it is Vos's dark side that uses lightning, but Sora Bulq and Quin's dark side are the same person. --Darthsith19 22:22, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

• That's not Bulq. That's a visual representation of Quin's dark side. Why is so difficult to understand that the one is not the other? If Quin has a dream where a flying monster attacks him and he wakes up and it's Tholme shaking him in the same position as the monster was, does that mean Tholme can fly? Havac 22:54, 7 December 2007 (UTC)
  • Gotta agree with Havac. It's all in Quin's mind. QuentinGeorge 23:07, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

• If one is not the other, how come as soon as Quin clears his head, his dark side version turns into Bulq? If all that was was a vision, then where was Bulq, just standing there for all that time just waiting and not killing Vos? Because that wouldn't make any sense. And when Vos's head clears, Sora is exactly where dark Quin was, that's way to unlikely to be a coincidence. And if dark Quin was simply a vision, how could he physically hurt the real Vos with lightning? Visions of the mind can't hurt you physically. The only person in the room capable of doing that would have been Sora Bulq. The bird analogy is bad, because Vos didn't fall asleep. Have either of you ever read the comic Star Wars Republic 59: Enemy Lines it's more like what happens to Anakin in that comic. A whole bunch of battle droids show up and attack Anakin. He is with A'Sharad Hett on that mission, and is having trouble coping with the fact that A'Sharad is a Tusken Raider (or so it seems). So when the Battle Droids arrive, to him they look like Tusken Raiders because he is so messed up, and he slaughters them all in anger. Does that mean he is just cutting down visions of Tuskens, and the Battle Droids are just standing there watching him swing his lightsaber at thin air? No, because when they are all dead it shows all the battle droids laying around. But he was seeing Tuskens, which is just like what happens with Quin, he is messed up, too, and sees dark Quin when he looks at Sora Bulq. --Darthsith19 00:19, 8 December 2007 (UTC)
  • I'd have to agree with Havac and QG. A little advice for your, Darthsith19, I'd stop trolling the issue if I were you. Greyman^(Paratus) 00:35, 8 December 2007 (UTC)
  • Darthsith, your argument would be more effective if you were actually correct...Anakin isn't fighting battledroids in that comic. He's fighting Yuzzem. Regardless, it has no bearing on this argument. QuentinGeorge 00:46, 8 December 2007 (UTC)
• Greyman:

Trolling: Being a prick on the internet because you can. Typically unleashing one or more cynical or sarcastic remarks on an innocent by-stander, because it's the internet and, hey, you can.

How is that what I'm doing? I'm trying to prove a point, and am in no way being mean about it.

Okay, I remember it being Battle Droids but I guess I'm wrong, but that's an understandable mistake, since it was the Clone Wars and the opposition is almost always battle droids. That's an understandable mistake to make, and the fact that I knew what happened shows that I did read that comic. And how doesn't it have any bearing? Both Anakin and Vos were in the same state of mind, and were having the same kind of "visions". You said before that dark side Quin and Sora couldn't be toe same person, but that is proof that they could be. And did you read the rest of my comment? How could Sora and Dark Quin be in the very exact same place at the very exact same time without being the same, and if they were different "people" then where was Sora while dark Quin was there? And how did a vision hurt Vos physically?

• Darth Sith, I agree with you. Quinlan is hallucinating and what his eyes see are being interpreted in his head as different than what they really are, but he is able to react to what his eyes see and have a duel with Bulq (instead of being chopped to pieces reacting to a phantom Quinlan that moved independantly from the real Bulq).

However, it's possible that Bulq did something else in that panel, like a force push, and Quinlan's diseased mind interpreted the pain as force lightning. I think that maybe Bulq did use lightning, but that's only one interpretation of what's going on there, so does not belong in the article.

I'm not sure, though, that that bit about not seeing Bulq using any dark side powers should be there, because by making note of it, it suggests that the editor believes he can't use dark side powers. Bulq's schtick is that he is the dark sider who knows Vaapad, so it should be no surprise that he's focused on using the lightsaber instead of powers. I don't recall Ventress using force lightning either, and I'm sure somebody can point out instances where she did, but she has appeared something like three times more often than Bulq, and my point is that I believe that you could randomly choose a number of Ventress appearances equal to the number of Bulq appearances, and chances are good that she wouldn't be using force lightning or force choke in any of them, either.

[edit] Lightsaber Training

Mostly this is in regards to the mention that Bulq practises all known forms of lightsaber combat when there is no source that says that, it's only infered in his databank article, while here it's explicitly stated. We should say something that's more in the vein of what was stated on his databank article, that he mastered many of the known forms of lightsaber combat, not all of them.

I also say this with concern for new Wookieepedia members who take what's stated on articles at face value, edit another page with that fact and get hell from the Administration (no offense to the administration, I know your just doing your jobs), like what happened to me a few months ago when the Serra Keto article stated she used Ataru when that has yet to be confirmed.

[edit] New source

I'd like to add The New Essential Guide to Alien Species to the Sources-section, but the page is locked. Could one of the administrators please do this for me? Thank you. --Borsk Fey'lya ^Talk 13:25, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Error in Schism Section

It states that Bulq sent the other Jedi to support Windu. The volume 1 clone wars graphic novel states that Tarn suspected Windu and decided to follow him, then Bulq sent K'kruhk and Jeisel to support Tarn against either Windu or Ventress, whomever he would end up fighting. I would fix this but it is protected. Micah Giett 18:27, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Rank in the CIS

Did Bulq held a rank in the CIS military command structure?--Gonzalo84 18:02, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Sora Bulq gender and race

In one of the Star Wars Visual Dictionaries (for "The Phantom Menace" or "Attack Of The Clones", I don't remember exactly which right now) I saw a picture of a young Human female Jedi Master; she was short, had straight black hair and slightly Chinese features. That picture was sighned: "SORA BULQ"...

And now I find this article which says that not only is Sora NOT female, he (she?) isn't even HUMAN... Could someone please shed some light on this issue? I'm a bit confused here... Darth Silvarion 11:50, 24 August 2008 (UTC)
