Marvel had a couple what if scenarios a bit ago. One was what Peter Parker would be like as the King In Black.
Another was what if Eddie rejected the King In Black powers after he killed Knull and instead stayed as Captain Universe.
I kinda dig these designs and hope they return.

I’m not giving up.
How much slower do Force Users age than non-force members of their species?
I suppose question has a few parts:
  1. Current Canon vs Legends.
  2. Jedi and Sith.
  3. Force users not part of any major light/general or dark side leaning orders.
————
Different topic but still Star Wars related.
Apparently in Canon, Echo Base was set up just a month before the battle of Hoth.
In Legends?
It was steadily built up for over a period of 3 YEARS before the Empire caught wind of it.

@CaptainXtra
I’m no star wars expert, so your question actually brings up a follow-up question from me.
Can Force-Users heal ? I think it’s an important question that is actually key to your question of aging.
Assuming that aging in Star Wars works similarly to ours (assuming their universe is literally OUR universe, but taking place a long time ago in a place far away) then for humans, aging would normally be associated with cellular damage or irreversible changes over time.
For example, telomere shortening. Long story short: telomere, a layer of protein and dna at the ends of a chromosome, is shorter in adults than in children.
So if Force Users DOES age much slower than non-users, is it because they can heal or manipulate their body at a cellular level, or do they age much slowly due to better diet, regular exercise, good managing stress level etc?
…Stress-related aging kinda explains why DarkSide users seem to age forty years, tbh. I mean, Palp and Vader got old real quick–and we KNOW they’re always stressed out.

@tehwatever
Force Heal is a thing but only with the most well trained Jedi.
Sith can’t really do it, except Plaugey according to some Legends material but even then it took way too much effort to pull it off.
IDK if other Force users have found some alternate methods of doing so.

You know…I have to appreciate WH40K for its attention to its technobabble lore stuff.
I love that they explained that their laser gun is basically a beefed up microwave that cooks the target. the laser carries no weight, and it’s hitscan so unlike ballistic projectiles, you don’t have to compensate for bullet drop or air resistance or none of that.
However it being a radiation emitter, it also means anything that interferes with emission like a strong electromagnetic field or passing through a medium like a dense fog, water, areas of heavy particle, anything that reflects or refracts or diminishes the radiation strength, will make the laser less potent.
It also doesn’t have stopping power like a handheld violent mini-rocket-launchers would. The laser gun melts stuff you point at, near instantaneously. That’s how it works.
I like it.

I actually got around to watching the second season of Beastars recently.
I liked it overall, but that ending felt EXTREMELY abrupt and rushed. Apparently, they crammed like 9 chapters worth of material into the episode, and if that’s the case then IT SHOWS. The epic confrontation between Legoshi and Riz barely lasts 3 minutes, Legoshi having to eat Louis’ leg sorta just happens, and they pretty much gloss over all the consequences of this encounter. It’s such a bizzare way to end it, and I can’t for the life of me understand why they’d do it like that.
Really hoping that this isn’t an bad omen for how the final season will turn out.
