Jedi Outcasts

The Force has a will of its own. It cannot be contained in halls, walls, and the council chambers. The Force is everywhere, it surrounds all life and binds it. The teachings of Jedi Masters are noble, and worthy of contemplation, however, each Jedi must find their own path. The traditions of the Jedi Order and its interpretations can hinder the path, like stones that no longer are steps, but blocks in the path. The Grey Jedi Order is closer, harboring fewer stones, they too are an organization. Jedi Outcasts reject the need for temples, an organization, and order. We are pilgrims seeking the Will of Force wherever it may lead.

The way of Jedi Outcast is hard. It can be lonely, being exiled from the Orders. But in wilderness we find peace, and the path hidden to our brothers in the Light. As Master Yoda on Degobah, and Master Obi-Wan Kenobi discovered on Tatooine, the isolation can lend perspective and communion with the Force not found on Courscant, Yavin IV, or Dantooine with their magnificent temples. We are the Jedi that wander and seek Ashla in arid and quiet places. We become closer to the Force through the unorthodox, and through our search we discover the Light is shining even in the most unlikely corners of the Galaxy.

Welcome to Jedi Outcasts, we are not an Order. We are community of wanders, who pitch our tents and huts here and there. We do not fit into rank and file Jedi, though we offer them support in times of need. We reject Bogan, The Dark Side. We believe Dark Siders are redeemable, that they too can rejoin the Light.

We have no official Creed, only what we compare and find in the Force as beneficial:

The Outcast Code (Guidelines, rather than Laws)

• Love, each being we encounter was formed by the Will of the Force.
• Joy, our joy comes from the Light.
• Peace, we are not peacekeepers, but we endeavor to meet each trial with a inner peace.
• Patience, for those we encounter, even Dark Siders, we must be patient with them.
• Kindness, treat all sentient life as if it were the Force itself.
• Goodness, be good to those who both are good to you and harm you.
• Faithfulness, our loyalty is to the Force and to the good of all sentient life, not just an Order and political entities.
• Gentleness, as wanderers we seldom are met with gentile feelings, so we remember this.
• Self Control, our aim is not to control empires, Republics, and civilizations, but to control ourselves.

We are a community that meets like the caravans of Tuskans and other sentient life on desolate planets. We are pilgrims, wanderers, and outcasts. Communication with the Jedi Order in its many forms is encouraged. Communication with the Sith Orders is encouraged, although remember the Outcast Code, and do not violate their regulations.

Some famous Jedi Outcasts:

Ulic Qel Droma, the Jedi who defeated the Sith Lord Exar-Kun and lead a life of penance and exile as Jedi Outcast.

Kyle Katarn, a Jedi who was part of Jedi Order, but then fled into exile for a time, and then rejoined the New Jedi Order.

Obi-Wan Kenobi, Kenobi was forced into the life of an Outcast during the Jedi Purge.

Yoda, the Jedi Master was forced into exile and life of an outcast on Degobah to preserve the teachings of Jedi for a new generation of Force Users.

 

There is no need for another, redundant, Jedi fanclub. We already have the GoL and the Grey Jedi and the fanclub for various other force using sects.
