The idea that you can be a grey jedi and casually flirt with the dark side is so deeply contrary to everything we see in the movies.
Azzreal69
They don't flirt with the dark side cause technically there is no light or dark side, its all just the Force. It all comes from the same -1
Azzreal69
thing, life. Its how its used and the path by which you draw it from that changes it. Seriously though this is all made up stuff, but -2
Azzreal69
all this hate on there even being a Grey jedi is whats really stupid. Go back to your D & D roots you filthy fucking animals. <3. - 3
Hobohead
That grey code is super edgey
Itouchthefishy
That's the thing, they really don't have a code. They just do whatever they believe in without being inherently good or evil.

There is passion AND emotion. Well shit. Guess grays are bipolar

Revan also believed in balancing both sides of the force, which he did trying to defeat the sith emperor.

Also no longer canon. He may have used light and dark but right up until the end of KOTOR he was a Jedi.
Troteus
Damn, I thought the new republic books were still considered canon

No longer canon. Trained by a Jedi Knight. Grey Jedi were just Jedi who didn't always color within the lines. Same order same code.

Grey Jedi are canon. The idea that there's a 'Code' associated with them is fandom nonsense. Also, terrible OC insert art in the middle
Kitakita
Gray is basically that edgelord in an anime that's actually a good guy.
ChronologicalMyopia
You actually can't be a grey, see the Jedi and the Force are the default balanced natural way of things, darkside is corruption of it.
ChronologicalMyopia
Any silliness about how force users can't love, or heavy handedness about balance to the force is due to bad storytelling.
ChronologicalMyopia
See, the ban on love thing was Lucas' clumsily shoe-horning this in, love literally brings balance to the force...
ChronologicalMyopia
Anakin's love for his son is his redemption, saving himself, Luke and the Jedi, while finally destroying the Sith.
Skyisblue92
Shoehorned or not, it is there so it is canon. That's what makes the jedi order unbalance. They tell people what is wrong and right. (1/?)
ChronologicalMyopia
They were never unbalanced and you could leave the order any time you wanted. Being a Knight or Master was a position of power.
Azzreal69
Well in the end he did bring balance to the force like it was foretold, and technically, he ended up being a grey.
ChronologicalMyopia
No, he was a jedi. Also balance always meant no sith, not 1 jedi 1 sith like aome people thought.
Skyisblue92
Actually the game Kotor deals with this exact situation whilst on dantooine (5/5)
Skyisblue92
Is made there is room for redemption. I believe this is why most people turn to the dark side at a quite early age mostly during training4/5
Skyisblue92
Disagree with the order and don't realise that it's suppose to be a guideline, not a thing that's set in stone and even after a mistake(3/?)
Skyisblue92
And then when they do something that is believed to be wrong (falling in love) they convince themselves that they are a lost cause or (2/?)
DwarvenDesign
Grey doesn't actually exist
CheesyPoofsWithSomeFavaBeansAndANiceChianti
Grey is cockamamie bullshit invented by EU fans and doesn't exist. People just made this shit up out of nowhere starting in the early 90s.
lexx416
"Grey Jedi" are dumb. And in the EU books, it's well demonstrated that humans are mostly only capable of a dualistic view of the force.
skelitor120
Grey as a personal ideal exists, but likening them to the other sects and giving them a "code" goes against the very idea of it.
Skyisblue92
Like atheism, a personal ideology shared amongst many people but without a group/order and code of ethics.
skelitor120
Being grey is more like being agnostic; it's the absence of two extremes, not a third equal-extreme
Skyisblue92
I'm not equating the beliefs of the two as similar. Just that it's not a sect or following. Just a personal ideal, set apart from others.
Skyisblue92
Also I wouldn't say atheism is an extreme. It's the natural standing point, you aren't born with belief, it is learned.
skelitor120
i'd say it's pretty extreme in terms of belief. "I suppose there may be higher power" vs "I am absolutely positive there's no higher power."
JamesBluntThatSmartassCunt
New Rebels episode has one such "grey" being. The Bendu.

Grey Jedi is the stupidest thing I've ever heard. Too scared to be Sith to lazy to be Jedi.
CheesyPoofsWithSomeFavaBeansAndANiceChianti
Not only is it stupid, it's simply fan fiction based on the early Zahn works which predate a more fleshed out canon.
MrHaynies
"more fleshed out canon" he says, like the hundreds o expanded universe stuff that was considered canon wasnt fleshed out....
CheesyPoofsWithSomeFavaBeansAndANiceChianti
MOST of what was written wasn't considered canon; Lucas simply didn't expressly call it thus, so people took a lot of liberties. And yes, 1/
CheesyPoofsWithSomeFavaBeansAndANiceChianti
2/ the Zahn works very much predate the vast majority of EU books etc.
Dontrespectmahauthoritah
Sith are idiots with their constant backstabbing and jedi teach apathy. Gray is simply not belonging in either order.

I played Galaxies. I collected a metric assload of resources. Moisture was one of them.
IllegalDuckling
I'm not quite up to date on my metrics.. Is a metric assload bigger or smaller than a metric fuckton? How do you convert it?
TurquoiseTortoise
You just move the decimal. 1 metric fuckton would be 100 assloads, as the assload unit of measure is based on Michael Moore's rear end.
Cosmogonic
i concur. 1 fuckload=1 metric fuckton=100 assloads=1000 cupwanks.

icameinlikeafeckingball
The concept of a Gray Jedi is (or was) canon, essentially it meant anyone who didn’t follow the Jedi Code but wasn’t dark side either. (1)
icameinlikeafeckingball
They were never a centralised organisation tho nor did they have a specific code, seeing as not having a code was sorta the point of them.
lemonsherbet
Several grey jedi codes and they make me cringe.
TheReturnedLordLucifer
Why? Don't let these wankers control your facial expressions. Just mock them.
EmileLewis
Grey Jedi ARE canonical in both the old EU and the new canon. But the notion that there's ANY codification of it is just fan faffery
Disenfranchised
Eh, they kinda hinted that Ahsoka was a Gray Jedi after she left the Order
BillyMaysHereWithOxiClean
I think they referring to the 'code' rather than Gray Jedi as a concept.
Disenfranchised
I think the codes okay, the whole part about it saying the Force isn't evil or good, that it exists is just fine. The rest of it is crap.
BillyMaysHereWithOxiClean
That I agree with, it's the implication that Gray Jedi have some higher purpose that I take issue with.
Nirvash80
If Rebels is canon, could be that The Bendu isn't a character name, but a grey Force discipline.
ICantstopbrowsing
No the gray jedi exist. The code is prolly made up. But there have been several grey jedi proven in canon

LetumComplexo
Actually, the most recent episode of Star Wars Rebels pulls a good bit of it into the canon.
LetumComplexo
Not so much the title grey jedi but the concept of a force wielder who is balanced between light and dark without commitment to either.
fartmagizewarth09
Most of Star Wars is, frankly thats the fun part about Star Wars is creating your own stories in that universe.
SnoopDoggAttending
because having emotions for those you love and those who love you is human, and that its more of how you use the force than what you use (2)
SnoopDoggAttending
Most of the other fan stuff stems from books. Grey jedi is just a conned term for jedi like luke, who beleive there is no true sides (1/2)

Makes sense, since there are Grey jedi in KOTOR. Jolee Bindo is (self?-)exiled from the Order, but is often cited as an example of a Grey.

actually, it was canon before Disney decided all of the books and stuff from the Extended Universe wasn't canon anymore. the grey 1/2

originate in the novels.
GuitarWolf365

FinValkyria
The code doesn't, that's what people are taking issue with. It's just bullshit someone made up to be edgy.
ClockworkArchangel13
oh, yeah. The Grey Jedi existed, but they had no true code. Essentially, "Maintain the balance and don't be a dick." was the only real 1/2
ClockworkArchangel13
2/2 code they had, and the second part was optional bordering on ignored.
Eleda
I actually read that Anakin's Padawan from the Clone Wars animated series chose neither Sith nor Jedi and went off on her own (1/2)
Meloncov
She left the Jedi Order, but definitely not the light side of the force.
Eleda
and that series is now part of the same official canon as the live action movies (if it ever wasn't) so perhaps the Grey does exist

Eleda
8D *gasp* OP noticed me! (thanks for the link! very cool!)
Goldenbeer
That may be true, but there is no order or code. They pretty much don't fully agree with either side. Qui Gon Jinn was thought to be grey.
Eleda
hmm I disagree. he bucked at the rules, not so much the tenets of the code (the ones in this pic anyway; this is the first time ive seen it)
samsonguy920
Exactly. He had different ideas but they still aligned with the light side. One has to wonder if he would have figured out >
hidoikenshi
Gray Jedi exist plenty, but there is no Gray Jedi "code" in any official Star Wars Media.
Eleda
not yet! Disney has the rest of forever for that so...
hidoikenshi
True, and I'm sure they'd handle it well. "Codes" in general have only appeared in the KotOR game series though.

Honestly I'd be a Jedi, especially in Luke's new order. But dat Force Storm tho...
NCStormer

Honestly I'd just be a light side force user, try not to be a dick, and not worry about the sillier aspects of the Jedi code. Seems easier.
SlipperyJ
That's what Qui Gon Jinn did. I'd have to agree - be "chaotic good".
SnarkyScience
Kyle Katarn is basically grey. He uses "dark side" powers because no powers are inherently dark.
PhilbertPhrog
I'd probably be a chef. A damn good one too.
Efreeti
In Luke's New Jedi Order (fucking why did they kill it goddamn) a lot of grey jedi philosophies were accepted.

IMadeThisOnlyForDestinyCodeBegging
Mnyeah in the new order it would probably be a lot more sensible. I never understood the rule of love being a bad thing.
PhotogenicHemorrhoid
They equated love with obsession. Obsession leads to bad things.
IMadeThisOnlyForDestinyCodeBegging
I can see where you're coming with that and it makes sense, but it could have been worded better in that case.
SquirtleSquad420
Thing is Jedi could leave the order if they wanted to. They weren't forced to stay in if they fell in love.
Velina
Because love can lead to betrayal which can lead to hate
KyleBeach
Prime example is annaken and padme. He initially loved her to the point of doing anything for her, that anything turned into serving sidious
KyleBeach
which led him to becoming vader, and at that point i guess he felt so far gone, why stop now.
Dontrespectmahauthoritah
There was also the jedi doing nothing when they should have acted and constantly putting Anakin down which frustrated him a great deal.
ShouTuckersGhost
If you're tied down with too much emotional baggage, that's fine, but you have to stop being a space wizard cop. It seems reasonable
bhaail
Giving up attachments. Strong emotions lead to problems. Like Vader and his mom. If he was taken at a younger age he would have had

I can tell you from experience that life without strong emotions is pretty shit.

Mace Windu is actually considered Jedi, he is an extremely aggressive fighter. LS Jedi aren't necessarily "good". DS Sith aren't (1/2)
GuitarWolf365
necessarily bad. I recall there being a sith who said it was their duty to be evil, rather than be evil for evil sake or personal gain (2/2)

Starkillers parents were Grey Jedi who fled from war between the empire and rebels fight to try to live in peace with wookies

No they were exiles. They left the order to pursue a forbidden relationship. That doesn't make them Grey Jedi.

They're in the Coruscant Nights series. They're about Jax Pavan, Private I, a Jedi that escaped order 66 to become a Private investigator.

AfroSamuraiRM
I can use the force and lightsabers? And I don't have to pick a side? Neat-o

wasnt a game made about a Grey? I dont remember his name but Vader was teaching him and he became the middle between Sith and Jedi
BoozeHound001
Yes and no, The game is force unleashed but he does become a jedi Knight in the first game DLC.

So just like life then, eh?
TheFantasticJurassic
Yeah "Chaos, but Order" seems a liiitle contradictory
TheWanderingBard
Organized chaos and chaotical order. Yep. That's the point: life isnt black and white. It is both and neither at the same time.
Azzreal69
So is life for that matter.

I feel like I remember reading it in a book from the '00s. There was a nomadic tribe of jedi who embraced marriage and love and such
SunBrolem
It is, you can tell because its absolutely stupid.
GuitarWolf365
Well Pre-Disney Canon I believe orig there was no Dark Side/Light Side. Could be wrong though.
Platymus
There is no mention of that code in the books I have read but there is a code by the predecessors of both the jedi and the sith that 1/2
Platymus
Describes balance between the light and the Dark side as that order (called je'daii) had to keep the balance between both to be a part 2/3
Platymus
Of the orderhttp://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Je'daii_Code 3/3

It's basically a way for a character to have cool dark lord powers and the okay to beat people up without being a douche bag (aka mary sue).
GuitarWolf365
Ehh, yes and no. Depends on a lot of things. I'm a Tabletop RPG dude so if I recall there were 2 things in pre-FFG SW stuff that was OP(1/2)
GuitarWolf365
Maybe more, but outside of Ttop RPG, There seems to be a lot of talk about the force just being a thing, neither good or bad.
TheCommissar
Yes. There is no canonical basis for a "grey side" of the Force. Thinking you're walking the line is called dark side in denial.
Azzreal69
Sith = chaotic evil, jedi = lawful good, grey = neutral alignments.
ClassyTavi
it's brought up in the rebels series
KnifeKnut
Found the Jedi :)
Aerolfoz
There are some grey jedi, grey sith, and force users completely idnependent of Light or Dark (Father from Clone Wars comes to mind)
JerreyRough
The "grey side" stuff is being touched on in Star Wars: Rebels right now actually. So we might see the new canon basis for the "grey side".
bleekosa
okay first, there was a metric Fuck ton of canonical Grey Jedi before Disney came along and took a massive shit on the EU, and quite 1/
bleekosa
honestly, fuck what Disney says. They came in at the end like a bunch of hipster plebs and were too lazy to build upon what was already 2/
bleekosa
there, moreover the fact that they kept Clone wars, rebels, and Old Republis Cannon means that most if not all of the EU is still 3/
bleekosa
Canon because soooo much of the EU ties in with events in those series that those series would be totally different if not for EU. 4/
TheCommissar
There were no grey Jedi in the old canon, either. All examples of grey Jedi were still on the light side, they just weren't traditional Jedi
bleekosa
Well grey Jedi have always been more light side inclined anyways, they just don't mind using dark side powers and think Jedi are hypocrits.
hrondleman
What does the European union have any thing to do with star wars/Disney?
bleekosa
*Facepalm, it stands for Expanded Universe. Jeezus its like no one knows anything about Star Wars anymore other then Disney crap.
PhilbertPhrog
Mace Windu
ThatDiceGuy
He was still a Jedi he just mastered a fighting style that used anger like the dark side but never strayed from the light.
PhilbertPhrog
I'm talking about the walking the line part.
ThatDiceGuy
But there was no line to walk with Mace. He was a Jedi who mastered Form VII, Joyu or Vaapad.
TheCommissar
Those Jedi labelled as grey that have existed, like Qui-Gonn and Jolee Bindo, were still on the light side.
DongSayaDae
While Light fights the dark, the light strives for balance, without sith there wouldnt be a balance. But its a necesary evil as Dark aims
DongSayaDae
For complete domination. Ergo this "Grey" is already a part of the light side. Thats how i see it all at least, but ive only seen the movies
ClassyTavi
Tera Sinube also seems like a perfect example
HeironymousLex
So, like a Bernie Sanders of the force?
Sertoma
I mean if you're calling democrats the Jedi and the republicans the siths.
EtherealRune
sounds accurate
vipe650r
There is NO Gray Jedi code. They do not fit to a code. They find varying truth in each and neither, and cover a spectrum.
comicbookSAM1995
https://youtu.be/mup7aH5LK_Y and rebels is canon
YokoHasReturnedTheyCry
All that does is show that there is something in the middle, that much was already known. It is the "grey code" itself that is made up.
brainplay
It's a force wielder with no code. That doesn't make him grey. That makes him unaligned. I doubt he will seek to keep things balanced.
thedudeman519
This reminds me of LotR when they hobbits meet Tom Bombadil in the Old Forest.
beardedheathen
Welp now I have to watch rebels. But hte grey jedi code is retarded.

There is no such thing as grey jedi CODE. Grey jedi yes. But they don't have a code. "I have morals to guide my amorality" sounds dumb, no?
MOTHERFUCKINGBOBROSS
Too bad it's shit
Ivegotitallmost
Some old-timers like me still judge things by the EU books and not the newer TV shows. Jacen Solo was grey before being a Sith.
Ivegotitallmost
Plus there are tons of Force-users who don't identify as Sith or Jedi
brainplay
None of which are Grey Jedi. Jedi and Sith live by a code. The pic above shows a Grey Jedi code that they must live by but generics do not.
ThatDiceGuy
There were tons of Gray Jedi before and after the Empire. Most notable was the Imperial Knights, who have a code & served the Emperor.
brainplay
Calling an Imperial Knight a Grey Jedi would get you chopped up. Sith and Jedi have a code. There was no Grey Jedi code.
brainplay
Being a light side force user doesn't make you a Jedi any more than being untrained or exiled makes you a Grey Jedi.
Jmankjp
I disagree, the most powerful force users were grey, look up the story of Revan, he literally became immortal
brainplay
Revan was never a Grey Jedi. Being conflicted over the two sides doesn't make you one. It just means you're conflicted.
bleekosa
Dude, lern 2 Revan. He was the most grey Jedi there ever was.
Jmankjp
If you think the path of the grey Jedi doesnt literally scream the definition of what Revan was then you dont know what he was
GuitarWolf365
I wouldn't call him Grey, I'd go as far as saying Revan was his own Force Line (Seperating himself from all other force users)
