A lot of core concepts from 7 and 8 episodes were taking directly from early Lucas ideas: Rey was called Kira and she was a junker. Finn was called Sam / Skylar and he was white stormtrooper who crashed on Kira's planet and befriended her. There was a black character, who was more or less "teacher figure", he was supposed to die at the end of the Lucas's episode 7. Kira and Sam / Skylar met Han and at some point possibly explored ruins of Death Star 2 at Endor. The main villain was "Jedi killer", who could have been working for someone else and also could have been Ben Solo corrupted by twi'lek sith, based on Darth Talon.
