    Greetings, Master Jedi. I wish to join your ranks and learn the ways of The Force and become a Jedi. The light side of The Force has always called out to me. I never really saw the appeal of the dark side. I'm one of those people who can't bring themselves to do a complete dark side playthrough on games like KOTOR. As you can probably tell, Obi-Wan Kenobi is my favorite Jedi. His character left an impression on me when I first saw TPM, as a youngling. I thought he was really cool and looked up to him as a role model. I wanted to emulate him and go on adventures with Qui-Gon. Luke Skywalker; especially in ROTJ, is also one of my favorites - particularly during his confrontation with Darth Vader and The Emperor inside The Emperor's throne room. He was so selfless, so giving. I aspire to be like that.

    Welcome! I feel pretty much the same way. I'm glad you're joining us here.

    I think ConservativeJedi321 will be pleased at your arrival.

    I award you five force points for your first post here that detailed why you came to be a Jedi, and who your favorite Jedi is. Bardan_Jusik (pts)

    Please add your membership of the GoL and the amount of points you have earned to your signature. (It doesn't have to be fancy.)

    There is no emotion, there is peace.
    A Jedi does not let their emotions overtake them and interfere with their goal of achieving a peaceful state of being.
    There is no ignorance, there is knowledge.
    A Jedi never stops learning. Do not wallow in ignorance. Seek knowledge and wisdom from great tomes containing sources of hidden knowledge and the experiences of others.
    There is no passion, there is serenity.
    A Jedi does not give in to their base passions or acts in a rash manner. A Jedi must always keep a calm, clear, and collected state of mind.
    There is no chaos, there is harmony.
    A Jedi must always be mindful of their actions and maintain balance in the Force, a Jedi must not sow disorder and discord through their actions.
    There is no death, there is the Force.
    A Jedi does not truly die. They become one with the Force and live on through their deeds and the legacy they left behind in this plane of existence.

    I made the same ouchy mistake of double posting. I see why the mods don't want it. There's that old risk of posting too much without waiting for others to respond. On some boards, the user traffic is so slow, the conversations get viewers but no posters.

    Nice introduction to this order for you! Such humility....(I'm saying that as a fellow Jedi and not a Sith). A Sith could talk about someone's humility with their fingers crossed behind their back while they dream up their machinizations of evil deeds. Ability to detect evil goes a long way......


    @BookExogorth

    @Tython Awakening - were you ever assigned a task?

    Nope, I'm open to being assiged one.​

    Sorry, I was in class. Welcome Blade Of Kenobi:cool::greensaber:

    You did well in introductions BookExogorth :)

    As for Tython Awakening's task, I asked him to explain why he wants to join our order in my first post to him. I intended that to be his first task.

    Thank you for welcoming me. I'm going to put together a proper introduction for your order when there is a chance. I'm not delaying, just need to get more familiar! I think Blade of Kenobi is more familiar than me on what to expect at Jedi Council Forums.

    I have always dreamed of standing before a real life Jedi Council like that in the Prequels and communicating through hologram projections! http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Jedi_High_Council/Legends
    A simulation with other SW fans is probably the best I can do.

    Feel free to take all the time you need Tython Awakening, we will be here when you are ready.
    And I too would love to be able to stand beside the actual jedi council.
    Or maybe even be a member.[face_whistling]
    But that is what I as a Knight am working towards.;)

    Hello and welcome. :)

    PS: why hasn't anyone told me everyone can assign tasks and write intros to the new victims followers of the light side? :p

    I got a task for you, Blade Of Kenobi, who's your favourite Jedi and why? :)

    While meditating this morning I possibly had a vision of your pending padawan-hood. Blade Of Kenobi
    :p

    You will have to forgive Jedi Master Kenobiwan above. She's a medical student and in the middle of exams so seems she missed that you had already replied to that question. I am sure another Knight will be along soon enough for your next initiate task. ;)

    Welcome to both you and Tython Awakening to the Guardians of Light. We are pleased you found us. :ben:

    Thank you, Master! :p I'm glad to have found you, as well.:yoda: Ah, no worries.

    Sorry, I didn't get to you sooner. I just woke up.

    Compassion is an essential quality in a Jedi. It is an act of unconditional love. By showing compassion towards others, you are steering clear off the path of selfishness. Compassion instills an active desire in you to ease the pain and and suffering in others. When we show compassion towards those less fortunate than us or those who seek our guidance, it instills in them the resolve to do better and improve their lives.

    Blade Of Kenobi there's no rush on any of these tasks, please take your time. I once took 6 months to do a task
