It was quite a blowout for Grand Admiral Thrawn. The blue-skinned wonder goes on to the semi-finals along with:
Anakin Solo
Captain Gilad Pellaeon
Since some of you missed the descriptions from round one, I'll summarize this round's contestants:
Talon Karrde--(Heir to the Empire) The galaxy's favorite know-it-all with a penchant for puns involving his name.
Tahiri Veila--(Junior Jedi Knights) Anakin Solo's true love, this bubbly blonde loves to talk and hates wearing shoes. Then she became half Yuuzhan Vong and she's been confused ever since.
Exar Kun--(Tales of the Jedi) The first guy in the SW universe to wield a Sith's double-bladed lightsaber.
Siri Tachi--(Jedi Apprentice) The closest Obi-Wan ever got to a girlfriend, this gifted Jedi could kick all kinds of butt.
Aayla Secura--(Republic) If Anakin was the Jedi Order's poster boy, then Aayla was its pinup girl. Did anybody ever talk to her about her sexpot outfits? Aayla's special because she made the transition from EU character to bona fide movie character, and therefore unquestionably part of the SW canon.
Xanatos--(Jedi Apprentice) Qui-Gon's failed pre-Obi-Wan apprentice, Xanatos turned to a life of eeeville and revenge, making him great fodder for all of those Q/O hurt-comfort fics.
A'Sharad Hett/Darth Krayt--(Republic) Half-Tusken Raider, half-human Jedi, Hett eventually became 100% trouble. At first, Hett was a hero of the Jedi Order. Then after Order 66, he felt he had to eliminate the Skywalker lineage by taking out Baby Luke. Obi-Wan kicked his you-know-what, and it all went downhill from there. After a torture session with Vergere, Darth Krayt was born.

Oh, the son of a bitch, pardon my Portuguese, but that *really* bloody well pisses me off....oh, how *dare* he?!
*smack* Bad A'Sharad Hett, bad, completely unacceptable, how dare you, no!! *repeated smacking* *promptly and vengefully punts him over a particularly tall, vast and endless cliff with some very sharp and jagged rocks waiting at the bottom* Grrrrrr, argh....oh, how *dare* he even try to mess with Anakin's own dear children, his precious progeny and flesh-and-blood, and his and Padme's too, after all.... *growling heatedly, all fired-up like at even the mere thought of it*
