Dark Jedi or Fallen Sith?

[dwenrhod]

Are there any rules pertaining to playing these types of characters?

 

[Oncaro]

Fallen... Sith? Do you mean Fallen Jedi?

 

[Logan]

Fallen... Sith? Do you mean Fallen Jedi?

Isn't that what a dark Jedi is?

Could be. I think there might be some distinction in the terms. "Dark Jedi" is just a generic term for non-Sith Darksiders in most contexts if I recall.

Well, let's list the jedi/sith "groupings":

Jedi
Sith
Dark Jedi
Light Sith
Grey Jedi (Grey Paladins fall under this of course)

Dark Jedi and Light Sith would be classified as "fallen"

 

[Livgardist]

Wait...there are Light Siths? :O

How cool is that?! :shock:

 

[Gaja]

Yeah, they kill with kindness. :X

 

[Cainhurst Crow]

Wait...there are Light Siths? :O

How cool is that?! :shock:

Thank you swtor for showing it can be done. XD

Though a fallen sith, wouldn't that be a redeemed dark sider, via technicality?

Or does dwenrhod mean a sith, whose no longer part of the empire?

 

[Livgardist]

The plot thickens.... :suspeciouss:

 

[Joy Carleec]

This can be expanded further.

Jedi
Sith
Dark Jedi (not a Sith)
Light Sith (not accepted by the Jedi)
Redeemed Sith (fallen back with the Sith after a period of rejection)
Redeemed Jedi (back with the order after a one night stand with the dark side)
Independant Sith (left the empire/sith to be their own competitor to it or become a bounty hunter, etc.)
Grey Jedi (Grey Paladins fall under this of course)


Could even go as far as provide extras for Grey Jedi, too. Since i'm sure it's possible to go against their teachings.

But this is all moot point, the OP still hasn't been answered, lol.

The ruling for any jedi/sith of any type is the same: You have to start out as a padawan/acolyte (unless given permission by the jedi/sith FLs), you can only have a max of two lightsaber forms (can't be an expert in either), and can only know a few beginner/basic force powers (can't be a master in any of them).



Gray Jedi don't have a set of "laws" like the Jedi. Grey Paladins do, but that is because they are a specific group and (according to wiki) usually added the Jedi from time to time. The Grey Paladins actually stayed at the Jedi Temple with the Jedi. (I've done research on them and the Light Sith when I was considering making a force sensitive faction)
