Imperial Assault characters in Destiny?

Discuss...

Do you mean the art or the literal characters? I think we have/will see art from IA in Destiny without fail. FFG loves recycling art assets! As for a character named after them, I don't see it. Maybe we'll get a generic, I already think Padawan evokes the Jedi character from the core game.

I'm talking actual characters. Like Fenn Signis, a red hero with an ability like "if Fenn is equipped with a weapon, deal 2 indirect damage when that die is resolved" and/or a power action like " if Fenn is your only character, ready him".

Or Gaarkhan with an ability like " when Gaarkhan takes more than 6 damage in a single turn he deals half that damage to a character".

Well the point is really to get some different characters out there on the public conscious.

Gonna be late into the games lifespan

Xwing miniatures has started pulling characters from the ffg RPG books to fill out the ranks of scum and villianry

So the question is really: when will we see more obscure EU characters or minor off screen characters?

We have a fair few already... Quinlan Vos etc.

Plus for those who don't watch or give a stuff about Rebels theres all those characters.

They gotta pad it out somehow. Only so many Vaders and Lukes out there.

I don't think Destiny wants to tap into Legends characters, ever. As much as I'd want a Kotor set or a Mara Jade & Kyle Katarn, I don't think they are gonna end up in the game.

So yeah, I guess eventually FFG characters can probably sneak in. Depends on how quickly Destiny' s release schedule out paces the new Canon material.

Are the Imperial Assault characters Legends? I was assuming that they'd be canon since Disney is so "hands on" with their IP.

*edit - I should have done my homework, according to wookiepedia these characters are not canon. So pleaee disregard this post. I doubt Legends will see print.
