Evolution of Vernestra Rwoh art
April 2020: concept art reveal (art by who? i haven't been able to find out).
Tumblr media
Notably, her lightsaber is blue in this art. Her hair is ambiguously black/purple and tied in a bun.
January 2021: first appearance (cameo in Light of the Jedi and main cast in A Test of Courage) - pictured on AToC cover and interior art by Petur Antonsson.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Vernestra is wearing her concept art clothing but her lightsaber has her final purple color. Her hair is purple as well and in a distinctive long ponytail.
February to May 2021: The High Republic comic appearances as a minor character, with art by Ario Anindito.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Her tattoos are present in the previous art but more visible here. She is wearing her hair similar to her original concept art. This is also the first time we've seen Vernestra in the brown outer robes.
June 2021: variant cover of The High Republic issue 6 by Marco Turini.
Tumblr media
July 2021: cover of Out of the Shadows by Ario Anindito and Grzegorz Krysiński.
Tumblr media
Vernestra's hair seems pinker here, though it's probably because of her lightsaber's reflection.
December 2021: Vernestra's story in The High Republic Adventures Annual 2021. Cover by Stefano Simeone and variant by Derek Charm, art by Yael Nathan.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
This story takes place an undefined number of years before the main book plot, and lets us see Vernestra's Padawan braid. Her hair is a lot purpler on the covers and blacker in the comic. She is also wearing a Stellan-style white cloak over her robes.
January 2022: Mission to Disaster with art by Petur Antonsson.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
She looks similar to the illustrator's previous work on A Test of Courage, though we get a good look at her outer robes this time.
February 2023: the reference book Chronicles of the Jedi with art by Yihyoung Li.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Here we see Vernestra in ceremonial Jedi robes, standing next to her taller student, having a hyperspace vision, and wielding her lightwhip. All iconic aspects of her character.
April 2023: new concept art at Star Wars Celebration.
Tumblr media
The colors are a lot more vibrant than in the original art. It is also one of the very few times we see her smiling instead of calmly focused or in combat.
April 2023: YA boxset cover art by Tara Phillips.
Tumblr media
This is the closest close-up we've seen of Vernestra, showing her tattoos in detail.
October 2023: Japanese edition of Out of the Shadows, with art by 5Health.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The cover art especially makes her eyes look blue-ish.
November 2023: phase 3 concept art by Ario Anindito.
Tumblr media
Big change! First time we've seen her outside of Jedi clothing. Her hair is very purple, and obviously shorter.
March 2024: cover art for Defy the Storm by Corey Brickley.
Tumblr media
First canon appearance of her phase 3 look, closely following the concept art.

Young Jedi Adventures could have been set pretty much at any point over literal centuries but lucasfilm picked the era immediately preceding several years full of some of the most tragic star wars events. multiple mass casualty terrorist attacks, galaxy-wide infestation of huge telepathic carnivorous plants, protracted open war, refugee crises, famine, whole worlds occupied and held hostage, jedi dying all over the place, creatures that inflict a fate worse than death on force-sensitives. why? because they knew the heroes needed to be relatable to 2020s preschoolers. in this essay i will-

I need these two to reunite asap.
I started Eye of Darkness recently and every chapter from these two has a chokehold on me. This piece was inspired by their reunion at the end of Fallen Star!
