First Appearance of Melis Shryke In Shadows of Starlight #3

There's a new character introduced in Star Wars: The High Republic Shadows of Starlight #3. Who is Melis Shryke?

Hello there my wookiee brothers and sisters! I’ve been posting a bit less over the last week or so due to work getting nuts and personal obligations but I did want to take a few minutes to point out a few things related to this week’s issue of Star Wars: The High Republic – Shadows of Starlight #3 that came out on December 13, 2024. Including a first appearance of a new character who I believe…

all the "unknowns" in character infoboxes in the High Republic Character Encyclopedia:

Ru-ru's height (why???)

Thaddeus Wolk's allegiance (the Gungan scientist in Out of the Shadows) - fair enough

Saretha von Beel’s allegiance (a prospector in a Tales of Enlightenment story)

Serj Ukkarian’s allegiance (the boy in Light of the Jedi) - i guess? he's a child

and the species of:

Barbatash (tall ancient Path Elder)

Coromont Vizzle (member of Maz’s crew)

Dietrix Jago (Silandra and Rooper’s rainbow-haired pilot)

Elris Florent (Disciple of the Whills that looks pretty human to me idk)

First pilgrim (guy in The Blade)

Griswal (tiny Jedi grandma rescued by Kantam)

Kaktorf (Sav’s master)

Maz Kanata

Melis Shryke (Eye of Darkness Nihil lady)

Sachar Rold (Path of the Open Hand founder)

Yacome delegate

Yaddle, Yoda

oh so the Nihil don't have the lightsaber disrupting tech anymore. thank you Melis Shryke?

Eye of Darkness chapters 4 to 6 reaction (spoilers)

gotta say, i question the decision to name a character working with Bell Pel. sounds kinda funny, especially read aloud

Viess mention! i assume she was intended for phase iii since her introduction. Is that the source of long mirialan lifespans in canon? i don't think i ever heard about that before vernestra was announced for the acolyte show.

i love Melis Shryke. what a fun new Nihil character. opportunistic aristocrat who learns she just loves mindless violence.

patricide ftw!

oh my god the Nihil do actually have and use mantessa's lightsaber-disrupting tech. i wondered if that would come back.

Bryn is bryn-ging back the Path of the Open Hand style blue forehead markings i see.

Forever War mention!! let's goo!
