- Who were the Gray Jedi Orders That Sought True Balance In the Force?
As the Jedi and Sith understood it, the force was divided between the light side of the force and the dark side, with there being little room between these two extremes. However, as we’ve explored in past videos, other force groups such as the aing-tii monks saw the force more like a rainbow, with many different variations and varieties.
The so-called “grey Jedi” also viewed the force in a different way to the Jedi and sith, believing that it was possible to follow the light as well as the dark. Whatsmore, the beliefs of different grey Jedi orders were very varied. While these groups did not adhere strictly to the Sith or Jedi teachings, the variation between the different gray Jedi groups was almost as extreme as the opposing views of the Jedi and Sith.
This video will briefly explore the various groups that followed the middle path and how they differed from both the Jedi and the Sith as well as one another.
A common theme between many of the Gray Jedi groups is their devotion to some kind of utopian ideal of the greater good. Like the Sith they were often willing to allow innocents to die to achieve their goals but like the Jedi would also be willing to lay down their own lives for their higher purpose. This was certainly the case for the first group we will discuss today known as the imperial knights.
The imperial knights were an organisation that existed around 100 years after the events of the Galactic Civil War. The imperial knights served the Fel Empire, the successor state of the imperial remnant in the Legends timeline. However, unlike the Empire under Palpatine the Fel Empire rejected the dark side, believing it to be a corrupting influence. However, they also rejected the Jedis interpretation of the will of the force, maintaining the beliefs of centralized power, monarchy and above all stability.
The imperial knights were the elite fighting force of the empire, serving the Fel emperor rather than the force itself as the Jedi did. They believed that the will of the force was served through the will of the emperor, as he was the embodiment of order, the greater good and therefore the force. However, there were some caveats to this. If the Fel emperor was to fall to the dark side, it was their duty to bring him back to the light side of the force or remove him from power.
As previously stated though, this interpretation of the light side of the force was very different to the Jedi, who described them as a grey order. Unlike the Jedi, the Imperial knights believed the loss of innocent lives was sometimes necessary to achieve their goals. However, this was never to be done in the pursuit of selfish desires, only if the Fel Emperor's orders required it.
It was this strict adherence to orders and code of honour that prevented them from falling completely to the dark side. They did not contemplate on the will of the force or their own selfish desires, the force was a tool to be used in service of their emperor. While they did not drawing upon dark side abilities, they were also not considered adherents to the light side either as they did not follow the will of the force, placing them firmly in the gray.
Another similar order of gray Jedi that served an authoritarian government were the mandalorian knights. Like the imperial knights, they believed the will of the force was not served well by democracy which they saw as corrupt and irredeemable.
The Mandalorian Knights fought for Mandalore the Ultimate against the Republic, almost 4000 years before the events of the clone wars. These knights were led by Dorjander Kace, a Jedi master who had once sat on the Jedi high council.
Dorjander Kace had lost his wife and unborn child in a Republic bombing and this tragic experience soured his view of the Jedi and democracy. He came to believe that the Republic was corrupt beyond redemption and that a Mandalorian victory was inevitable. He believed that the Mandalorians philosophy of order, honour and self-sacrifice for the greater good of the Mandalorian people was more intune to the force than the self serving elite in the Galactic senate ever could be. However, this view also meant embracing the authority of Mandalore the Ultimate and turning a blind eye to the various atrocities that the Mandalorians were committing.
In this way, the Mandalorian Knights were similar to the imperial knights of the Fel Empire; embracing authoritarianism over democracy, believing this was more closely aligned to the will of the force and a better way of achieving stability in the galaxy.

14:15 “They viewed Revan as the perfect being” that just sounds like the internet
Wouldn't surprise me if this was a deliberate dig at Revan fanboys.
Yeah that was an exaggeration, but Revan looked at both sides of the force seeing their strengths and weaknesses. That was what made him great.
Replace Revan with ahsoka and it would be still make sense
That quote is an oxymoron
“Peace is a lie there is only passion
Through passion I gain strength
Through strength I gain power
Thrower power I gain victory
Through victory my chains are broken
The force shall free me”
“There is no emotion, there is peace
There is no ignorance, there is knowledge
There is no passion, there is serenity
There is no chaos, there is harmony
There is no death, there is the force”
“There is no light without the dark
Through passion I gain focus
Through knowledge I gain power
Through serenity I gain strength
Through victory I gain harmony
I am one with the force
The force is with me”
I always wanted to know more about the grey Jedi orders let's hope we see more of them in the future of star wars
I was hoping that's where ep. 8 was going but no they f'ed it up
@@dakodareid3807 to say they f*ed up is being kind
I mean, there’s no such thing, and this fan-made term applies to wildly different definitions, as this video exemplifies, so it wouldn’t be all that hard to have some different Force orders appear in the movies.
It is my headcannon that the lightsader duel video "to the DEATH" takes place thousands of years in the future of star wars where the grey jedi are the only jedi and it is taught that there is nothing bad about the force.
(For the contest)
My ideal lightsaber would be a sith Saber with a smaller handle with unique Zeffo type of designs on it, it would be a bronze color with white around it, the blade color would be red but it would have a short blade on the other side that is orange, (to represent energy and fire(it could also be black, to show darkness, hate, emptiness and aggression)). There would be handle guards around the emitter.
The design fits my personality, (not the colors seeing as I'm not a heartless killer) but because it kinda just feels right to me. Almost like a kyber. And mainly because I've had an attraction to the mysteries of energy, and darkness
My ideal lightsaber is:
A double bladed saber like Ventresses’ (can break in two or used as one*), one side purple and one side orange. Orange is a traditional shaped lightsaber and and purple is shaped like the Darksaber. The hilts are similar but the Violet-Violence end is smoother and contains small glowing Chanels which are constantly lit (even when the blade switched off (with a black-carbon finish) and the orange is more like Anakin’s but has a golden-bronze hilt and the grip is closer the the center.
Fuckin complicated
That sounds awesome!
The potentium had the most truthful philosophy and understanding of the force, imo. The intent is more important, and I think the new jedi order that Luke created in the EU reflects this. No matter the force ability used, what you use it for is really the determinate of whether light or dark side.
Intent and the projection of emotions when using a Force technique/ability will determine its effect and lethality. Someone using telekinesis to murder you is going to end you, one way or another. Someone trying to run away or just subdue you usually isn't trying to do harm in either of those situation.
Also just discovered you yesterday. Your content is amazing and so in depth. You earned my sub keep it up my man
My ideal lightsaber would be a cyberpunk style unstable peacemaker lightsaber with some mandalorian like ornaments and there should be some wood or leather elements in the handel.
I would use a lava or heart of the guardian Crystal.
i've been wanting this video thank you!
This is a very interesting video
Love the content as always!
My Ideal lightsaber is a red bladed lightsaber because I think that the sith are correct in their ways, as Qotsisajak says,
"Peace is a lie. There is only Passion.
Through Passion, I gain Strength.
Through Strength, I gain Power.
Through Power, I gain Victory.
Through Victory my chains are Broken.
The Force shall free me.”
I would like my lightsaber to have a curved and double sided hilt similar to Asajj Ventress’s lightsaber but with a gungan/under water feel to it. The gungans are probably my favorite sentient Star Wars species. It’s really a shame that not many are force sensitive. One side of the lightsaber would be powered by a dual phase ligninor crystal and the other would use the bifurcating cyclical-ignition pulse technique powered by two ultima pearls because in my Star Wars universe I am a gungan named Koff Zipps. Born 42BBY, I was sent away to Mon Cala as a child during the battle of Naboo because the council was worried about my force sensitivity being found out and exploited. I was eventually found hired and trained by the empire and became one of the most well known assassins of the rebellion era after killing 7 Jedi during Order 66. My lightsaber was given to me in 23BBY by the grand inquisitor and I used it for mostly underwater targets until I amounted enough credits for my ligninor crystal and started to bring in the big money. I died at the hands of Luke Skywalker in 12ABY in attempt of his assassination.
The Fulcrum sabers (Ahsoka's) I think are amazing. Lots of Jedi/Sith have dual sabered before but due to Ahsoka's being of two different lengths, each having its own speciality makes them unique and one of a kind.
100% agree i love her sabers i legitimately wonder where she got her purified crystals from
It also makes them more realistic to a usable dual wielding set up, very often folks have a main hand and a shorter offhand weapon
I love your content, great quality and really well researched (also very good collation of imagery). Please take this only as constructive critique but you need to work on the repetition in your inflection at the end of a statement.
My ideal lightsaber is a white crossguard with a white metal hilt and a gold trim. At the bottom of the hilt where a pommel would usually be i would have a loth wolf tooth since they are beings of the force and the force flows through everything and i am the force. In my other hand would be a large Beskar sheild with the symbol of the grey jedi engraved onto it. The sheild would allow greater defense against blasters and would provide a good wall of defense in a lightsaber fight. Idk the idea of kinda a jedi crusader would be awesome with full armor similar to temple guard armor, a crosguard Saber and large sheild. Like a traditional knight, it would be a very unique design
My lightsaber would have a cracked rainbow gem giving it a unstable cyan blade. The hilt would be have the curved approach made of Mustafarian copper with a smooth wood from the Brylark tree inlaid into it. The vent for the crystal coming out the back creating another small blade.
Hey VF2 what's up! Keep up the awesome great content dude here's for the giveaway.
My ideal lightsaber would actually be two different parts. First I would have a normal straight handle with a permafrost crystal and an amplifying crystal for more power. The main blade would be just a normal straight blade but there would be two vents in either side of the handle that come out at a 45 degree angle and point away from away from the handle. The vents would probably be around an inch long with the actual blades being around 3 inches long. And they were put on afterwards by me and with scraps so it wasn't expertly done and so they would be kind of like in a weeve pattern that you could see through. The top of the blade would be slanted and have two little cuts in it exactly across from each other. The design of the handle would be round and kind of workshopy because when it was built I had limited parts so it is kind of a little random. After the top the vents would be there about an inch or so down. It would have a switch then instead of a button around the switch is smooth metal. After the switch would be metal ingraved with and grip and pattern made with a blow torch of sorts just small. On the handle there would be 3 wraps of beast hide spaced about an inch away from eachother and would start at the top of the handle. The end would round into a sharp point made out of a small bit of beskar like I said a little random. The metal would be all be somewhat higher quality because my family had a good bit of money however it would all still be the same color only aftermarket and from paint. These blades would be green repersentingredients my connection to the spiritual part of the force.
The second part would be a lightsaber gauntlet with two gold/yellow blades on the left and right side. The gauntlet would be very round and smooth with all the components being hidden inside. The gauntlet would cover all of my forearm and slide on and then be strapped on for securness. The straps would be made out of beasthide or other types of leather. The front end would end with a very round curve down and back would just be straight down. The top layer of metal would all just be on peice and would be colored either a weatherd black or dark gray. The top would have a plate of beskar on it so it's able to block other light sabers in a dule. The gauntlet would have no switch or button because I would just use the force to ignite them. The gold/yellow represents the high level of my force connection and the position of my family in the jedi order as we were previously jedi temple guards. So where each blade of the saber is projected is actually a half of a jedi temple guards saber. The two halfs are set in place inside the gauntlet. The saber was damaged in an explosion that happend in my house after a ship hit it. The saber was damaged in the middle and so it was split to two for usage. In the middle of the gauntlet it would also have a built in balster in the middle of the two blades. The blaster would utilize the two crystals of the sabers to amplify the shots. It would use gas cartridges that u insert from the back. The balster would be for tactical and ranged attacks like how Ezrans saber functions.
Describing my ideal lightsaber:
• Wield: Jar'Kai. I would love to dual wield lightsabers like Ashoka, Ventress, Starkiller, Maul and Revan (in a vision) did.
• Hilt: The base of the hilt would be made out of the alloy of beskar and steel to make it shiny. The beskar would help to make it light but extremely strong at the same, even though the mandalorian Armorer would send me to Mandalore to get clean of my sins for using beskar to make a weapon. Anyways, the hilt would contain some black details to contrast the shininess of the base, after it's an elegant weapon for a more civilized age. The bottom would be curved downwards a little bit like it's on with the Defender hilt from the Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy game.
• Crystal: - Color: My favourite lightsaber colors are red and yellow. My affiliation of the force would be on the middle but a little bit closer to the dark side. I always liked the sith better. But I would also use the force to help my loved ones by imposing my own will and desires on the force. Why not purpe you may ask? Because, for me using a red and a yellow lightsaber would be the mocking for both the jedi and sith too. - Type: I would use 2 in each to alter the length of the sabers. Dantari and Qixoni crystals in the red one. Meditation and Mantle of the Force crystals in the yellow one. Dantari to recycle the fury of the battle and also regain used force energies faster. Qixoni to increase the heat of the blade and enhance my force potential. Meditation crystal to have a better connection to the force and to regain spent force energies while in combat and the Mantle of the Force would help me to increase my force powers. The quiet similar but unique in a way.
But I think I would be just as happy with The Revanchist as with my dream lightsaber if I fortunately won the giveaway.
Ideal lightsaber:
I would have two sabers, one normal length, and one shoto in my off-hand, but they would both have thinner blades like in Rebels. They would also be able to work together as a dual-saber by latching them together, but the shoto would stay the same length. In the normal length saber, I would use the kyber crystal that burns cold to be able to inflict frostbite on my opponents. On the shoto I would use the ghost fire crystal in order to disorient my opponents. That way they would (literally) never see it coming. But, when attached to my main hand saber, the two would adopt the properties of each other’s crystals, making my lightsaber very devastating and hard to read. I would have the crystals be cracked in order to have the wild look. And they would be silver. The shoto only being visible when attached to the other, of course. The hilts would be very similar to Ashoka’s in rebels. Almost katana-like.
Dang this was an amazing video! I would have definitely joined either the Mandalorian Knights or the Potentium. I love the Mandalorians' focus on honor, technology, and militarism; but at the same time my views of the force more accurately line up with the Potentium. I've always thought it silly to view the force as having a Light and Dark moral side to it, as it's simply a natural phenomenon in the Star Wars universe. I don't think it has a "will" of any type, but that it is simply an energy field that flows through all things and binds them together. To me, there would be no harm in studying the "dark sided" abilities or techniques, as they would simply be unique facets of study. I would value knowledge in the Force, but also constantly work towards using the force to improve technology and further my own ends. I agree with the Sith in the idea of using the Force as a tool, but I disagree with there seemingly evil ideals and morality. I agree with the Jedi in using the Force to improve others' lives and help protect people, but I disagree heavily with their closemindedness towards any foreign ideas or thinking.
If the Force had no will Anakin Skywalker wouldn’t’ve been born and the prophecy of the chosen one wouldn’t come to pass
@@B31NG That's a good point. Alright so maybe it does have a will - but that still doesn't necessarily polarize it into a light and dark side. If anything, that strengthens the argument that the Force is one phenomenon, not separated into two distinct forces.
@@B31NG darth plageus made anakin
@@mcflyingfury I think that many who follow the "dark side" solely end up simply using it for their own gains and ends which goes against the will of the force. On the other hand the Jedi and other "light side" aligned groups were more open to the guidance of the Force. Not that any of them were perfect by any means.
@@azidal3755 I think people's actions are less caused by "dark side vs light side" and more so by their motivations and personal characters. I would agree that "dark siders" typically are evil or selfish, but to me that's more of a description of their morals, not anything to do with the force. For example, force lightning - which is generally known as a 'dark sided' power - was also used by Plo Koon and some other Jedi. Some force powers - telekinesis, mind tricks, healing - are commonly used by both Jedi and Sith, as well as other neutral force sensitives. Things like force crush and choke were typically used by selfish and evil people, sure, but mainly because they didn't mind killing others, whereas groups like the Jedi frowned upon such behavior as they would rather arrest or detain criminals. There's nothing inherently evil about using the force to crush a person's windpipe, rather the type of people more likely to do so had evil behaviors. As far as the will of the force goes, I'm not brave enough for politics so you'll have to decipher that without me.
My ideal lightsaber is a bit shorter in the hilt than a lightsaber pike. He had 2 lears of beskar at the side of the hilt and 3 at the bottom so it can be more balanced. The sides were painted black and red. The blade was short and it was a bit
curve. The color was red-orange and the lightsaber's name was flame. To activate the saber you need to use the force that was the only way to ignite the saber. It was really hard to learn to use it but tough to defend against. The blade was reacting as the user if the user gets mad the lightsaber becomes unstable. The lightsaber was very uniquе. The crystal was my idea and I even created his own character he's name was X and he was a Jedi-type warrior. He tried to use the force ability he read in the archives that luke and the sith used to create lightsaber crystal but he get unstable and the lightsaber crystal didn't come and X thought he didn't make it right. later he saw something weird and he get there and he find his lightsaber crystal but later he realize that as long he is in battle he get more and more powerful but when he stop fighting his powers come to normal but was very weak in water(crystal). That was my lightsaber good luck all :)
My ideal "lightsaber" is actually a lightsaber pike with a light blaster pistol integrated at the tip for surprise attacks and medium ranged fighting capabilities. The hilt design would be aesthetically simple but made of expensive materials such as Black Phrik and Chromium embellishment. I'm going to take inspiration from dark side warrior Warb Null in Legends and have the last section of my staff be a back up lightsaber. I'm not one to take caution lightly. Not all enemies will stay at a moderate distance for my pike to be most effective. My weapon is very disadvantageous if an opponent or enemies are located in cluttered or tight spaces like offices and hallways.
I've said all of this and didn't even describe the crystal/blade color and its properties.
I'd have 3 crystals in my pike's longer crystal chamber:
-1st is a haunted White Sapphire gemstone
- 2nd is a Damind focusing crystal for a wider and longer blade
- 3rd is a Rubat focusing crystal to define the blade's shape and sharpness.
These crystals in concert would give me a defined "phantom white" blade/spearhead that incessantly whispers while active and groans/shouts when making contact with an object.
For some lore aspect to this strange weapon, it exists to inspire fear and repentance in the presence of the mysterious and powerful leader of a dark side cult called "The Apostles of Onrai." The leader is a young Sephi man, who's clothing and personal objects predate modern Republic designs and fabrication by 10,000+ years.
Hope this wasn't too much detail.
My ideal lightsaber is a traditional Sith style hilt lightsaber using a dual phase blade. I would pick a Ghostfire crystal so I can take my enemies down stealthily and confuse them in a duel with my almost translucent blade. I would add a ninja katana style into the mix to my sith styled hilt because it would look good with the ninja/samurai theme I have in mind.
My Ideal Lightsabers, are for duel wielding, main saber in my right hand, shoto saber in my left. They would be straight hilts, how a simple saber would look, main saber about 10 - 11 inches in length and an identical shoto saber about 2 inches shorter. Both sabers coated in brushed gold from head to toe.
The body would have thin vertical indented lines along it for comfortable grip, spinning and flourishes.
There would be 4 thick black lines around the emitter with a column of horizontal windows in each line and a matching pommel with a milled grip detail. The windows would stand out the most when the sabers ignite a blue blade and would especially be an elegant contrast to the gold of the saber and be a nod to my college colors.
The primary blade length of my main saber would be 36 inches, while the shoto’s primary length would be 26, I say “primary” because both sabers would secretly have the dual-phase function, allowing the blade’s length to be adjusted between 20 - 37 inches during combat, completely throwing off an opponent if constantly switching sabers between hands.
The name of these Sabers is ‘Exodus’ & ‘Exodus’ Shoto, Exodus meaning a mass departure/retreat of people, so in this case, when you see me, it is time for your whole crew to leave.
My second constructed lightsaber would be a coming-of-age saber, one where I am no longer a young, prideful apprentice but a humble, newly found Knight understanding of the Force and on the verge of mastery.
The straight hilt would be about 12 - 13 inches in length, slightly longer than my first main saber.
Designed around a profile shape, with body features lathed and milled details with an indexing ring making gripping the saber effortless.
Featuring an angled emitter with horizontal oval windows on the flat sides of the saber, mirroring the details all down the saber's body, switch, and pommel section.
It will not be entirely gold this time, but a balance of brushed gold and black (Story wise: having used parts of my damaged shoto saber). The flat sides are black, the rest of the saber is gold.
The Krystal used for this saber would be a Danderi Crystal, where the blade color that would change based on the wielder’s connection to the Force, and In my case, I actually see myself with a silver/white blade, it would in fact contrast well with the black windows of the emitter, making the light from the saber especially pop at night.
Another ability as learned from the video is that the Danderi Crystal is also being able to recycle the energy from a battle and recharge the user’s energy to stay alert and keen to the Force.
And because of that, I would name this Saber ‘Rebirth’ for the essential replenish of energy the Krystal gives when ignited and the silver blade representing true balance of the force, allowing one to rise above most who only see conflict.
This saber will not have a shoto, but instead will be utilized alongside my ‘Exodus’ saber for dual wielding, due to losing my Exodus Shoto in battle, (story wise). My new ‘Rebirth’ Saber will go in my right hand, while my original ‘Exodus’ Saber will go in my left hand.
I've known about the Grey Jedi for a long time now and that the Grey side of the force is like a line between the Light side of the force/what the Jedis follow and the dark side of the force/what the sith follow. The Grey side is pretty much the force and what it is, that's what the Grey jedi draw from. But this video taught me the history, and more meaning of the Grey jedi and the Grey side of the force.
I have two ideal sabers. For my right hand I would use a tri phase single blade. The hilt would be made of an Ultrachrome-Beskar alloy similar in appearance to carbon fiber but with a solid metal feel. It would be black in color and there would be some [insert Star Wars equivalent for rubber here] grooves on the sides for grippiness. Look up the Praetor Hilt on wookieepedia - it would be similar to that but it wouldn’t be cylindrical, more like an oval stretched into three dimensions if that makes any sense. There wouldn’t be any switches or buttons on the hilt, as I would use the force to activate and direct the blade. The emitter would expand slightly from the hilt, and have sharp angles. It would redirect the basic form of the blade into a thin edge instead of the traditional cylinder, making it more sword-like. The emitter would also have a small barrier of sorts in place of a crossguard. I don’t want to be losing any hands, but would love for the saber to be relatively low profile and easy to transport on my person.
Building this saber would be a daunting task. I have designed it to include three kyber crystals, which is canonically possible, but is exceptionally complicated and takes a lot of effort and luck to align properly. My three crystals of choice would be: an indigo Mestare, a black Dantari, and a dark red Qixoni - in order from emitter to base. The middle crystal (Dantari) would form the core of the blade and my connection to it. It reflects the force alignment of the user, which for me would be warrior spirit and neutral politics, causing the predominant color of the blade to be black - although slightly more fuzzy and opaque than something like the darksaber which is pretty shiny. The Dantari crystal would also rechannel force energy lost in combat back to me, increasing my endurance, strength, and focus. The blade would have deep red crackles and streaks due to the bottom crystal (Qixoni), giving the illusion of electricity surging through the blade. This crystal would significantly increase the temperature and power of the blade while also enhancing my own force abilities. Finally, the top crystal (Mestare) would have an electrotropical indigo color, and would allow me to cut through cortosis by projecting a field resistant to energy feedback. This crystal also has the unique trait of reshaping the blade, causing it to curve very slightly - almost like a katana. The indigo color from the Mestare crystal would normally not be visible, only appearing when the blade projects its energy feedback resistance field (EFRF), where it would replace the deep red streaks temporarily.
These are the best renditions I could come up with using alt code characters. The vertical one is pointing downwards, while the horizontal one is pointing to the left. Try to merge these together in your mind.

For my left hand I would use a dual phase shoto with one crossguard. The crossguard and hilt would be made of Zillo beast hide with patterns engraved throughout. I would color the patterns different degrees of gray and black and leave the natural base color. This hilt would be a couple inches shorter than my primary lightsaber, and would be more smooth in its design. The shoto wouldn’t be cylindrical, but would have an oval shaped blade, emitter, and hilt. Once again, no switches or buttons on the hilt - the force exists for a reason. The shoto would have one crossguard pointing at an initial 55 degree angle from the main blade, and it would curve upwards as it traveled away from the hilt. Think of something like Maul’s lightsaber cane, but smaller. The emitter would be very simple and retain the smooth nature of the hilt. It wouldn’t be pronounced but would simply curve into the main blade. The base of the hilt (pommel?) would taper to a rounded point.
Although easier to construct than my primary Tri-Phase lightsaber, this dual phase shoto would still require a considerable amount of effort, simply due to the unique crystals chosen. First I’d travel to the planet M’haeli and search the mountains for a Nextor crystal. These crystals naturally produce extremely volatile and unpredictable, yet devastatingly powerful blades. Only by developing a deep personal connection to the crystal itself over the course of several years can one hope to master the blade. The Nextor crystal only naturally comes in one color, a creamy gold-white, which gives a lightsaber’s plasma blade a shimmery gold appearance. In my opinion, this shimmering gold color would compliment the Zillo beast hide on the hilt. The second crystal I would introduce into my shoto would be a Ghostfire. Although these crystals are notorious for growing inside of invisible rock formations in the Outer Rim, they are in actuality quite common in the galaxy compared to many other kyber crystals. I would simply use the force to call out to them and hopefully that would work lol. The Ghostfire, as its name implies, produces an invisible and completely silent blade. Using this in conjunction with the Nextor, the Ghostfire would be the dominant crystal as far as appearance goes. The only time the shimmering gold blade would ever be visible, is if I decided it would look cool. The Ghostfire also has the ability to produce glitchy and laggy afterimages of the blade and user - this would be very beneficial to confuse and disorient enemies in combat situations. Also, after gathering a Stygium crystal and implanting it into some powered Duraplast armor, I could go full stealth mode with the shoto if the situation required.
I think it would be a decent idea for a series of Disney just wanted some filler or maybe some kind of pre-prequel stuff to establish their own canon but I doubt they’d really stick to the ideas that legends had for everything
My ideal lightsaber would probably be a mix of a double blade and a cross guard, with the cross guard only on the side, that points backeards most of the time. For the colours I would choose dark blue for the one blade and orange for the second blade. For better carriing and hiding under a coat, I would also add a "flipp" mechanism like the one that Pong Krell used on his lightsabers.
My ideal lightsaber would have to be a knight hilt that looks like arogorns sword hilt and looks like obi wans padawan lightsaber hilt and has a guard that closes and has a single lava blade. The reason why I chose this combo is a knight sword is already heavy and a lava blade is heavy too so if you combine the two it would be a perfect fit
My ideal lightsaber is a Praetor type hilt. I would use strength along with my connection with the force in battles by using a cryte dragon pearl. This crystal would not be for the power the crystal holds, but as more of a trophy because I would get the pearl myself to make my blade.. My bade would either purple or white because I would use dark and light, but I would not be a part a jedi or sith. With this being said, I would be more like a grey jedi than anything else.
I am the keeper of the flame
Soldier of balance
Guardian of balance
I am a grey Jedi...
Even if I don't get picked for the giveaway I just want to say I really enjoy your content and you explaining every aspect of Star Wars. May the force be with you.
My ideal lightsaber is a mostly straight hilt except for the bottom side which is a curved vented point, it would have a small hook on 2 sides of the emitter, and gold secondary colors, the crystal would be a krait (or however it’s spelled) dragon pearl, it would emit an odd yellow and would have a greenish aura, I would have a second shoto saber using a purified kyber crystal, with a gold hilt, the two sabers would connect similar to cal kestis’s connectable and disconnectable sabers

My ideal lightsaber would be a curved hilt with a cutlass hand guard on the front of the hilt made entirely of phrik. The color of the hilt would be a light purple, (in memory of my unborn children) a blue blade, (the color of my wife’s eyes), and with a white handle.
The kyber crystal’s I would use is a Pontite Crystal and a Ankarres Crystal. The Pontite is known for its calming powers and its subzero burning touch from the blade itself. As described in Star Wars lore, the Pontite crystal was also known to hold the power of turning dark side users back to the light and calming them of their negative emotions.
The ankarres crystal is well known for its healing abilities to others and to its wielder , so having a combination of both in my eyes is a very powerful lightsaber for a Jedi.
For the blade I would have a dual phase blade in order to hold both crystals and for fighting purposes. As an avid fencer and champion of my club, having the ability of changing my blade length is not only effective but also efficient. Plus having a hand guard is a definite bonus.
My ideal lightsaber would be silver colored like the cyber, with ghost fire crystals, I uses these rare crystals in my saber because they are near invisible and silent making it hard for my enemies to discern wether or not I’ve tricked them mid fight by turning off my saber and turning it back on, and for surprise attacks
My most ideal lightsaber is a lightsaber with a normal hilt and a grey blade. On the hilt there is a small button that will change the blade from a normal solid blade into something like a flamethrower that can pass through other lightsabers. The other thing on the hilt is a power controller that when dialed to max lets out ghostly screams designed to disorient the enemy when hitting something.
Hey I don’t know if you are still doing this but…
My ideal lightsaber would be a double bladed one with a kyber that boosts my force ability’s and agility. The sabre looks like Mauls but with less buttons and can fold and or split to make 2 sabres. It’s blade is purple and the hilt is a dark grey.
Thanks! Still a few vids to go until I announce a winner 😊
That’s actually sick
That sounds so cool
Well I'm glad I came across this giveaway because I've had a lot of thought on my dream lightsaber and I'm gonna use every excuse to talk about it.
Design:
So my ideal lightsaber would be a double ended lightsaber with the same proportions on Maul's blade. The idea is it's functional as a sword staff when just one end is turned on and then obviously as a double ended, although I'd make some changes.
First of all the saber will separate into two BUT not in the middle of it making two equally sized lightsabers, but instead about 2/3s of the way down the handle producing one saber with a longer handle and one with a shorter handle. The longer saber of the two would be best utilised in fights where power and leverage is desired while the shorter one would be useful for tactical reasons, very close/confined quarters combat and for quick attacks and movements (and also stealth if you could call a lightsaber stealthy). And then of course having the option of two sabers means you can attack and defend at the same time.
The hilt of the blade would be coated in Cortosis, the conductive properties of which would cause lightsabers to temporarily short out upon contact. Baiting an opponent into hitting the larger handle part of the staff/weapon would effectively disarm them creating an opening and for a window of time, I could guarantee the upper hand.
Crystals:
The lager half of the saber would use Dantari Crystals as they allow the user a better focus on recovering spent Force energies, occasionally recycling the fierce, wild energy of combat to the wielder to fuel their Force power.
The smaller half of the saber would use Hurrikaine Crystals as when used in lightsabers, they created blades that were very good at penetrating defenses as they better ones reactions and reflexes.
Colour:
You may have already guessed from my choice of crystal but the blades will both be purple mirroring my connection to both sides of the force, because it looks very pretty, and purple is my colour. The hilt will be jet black with some subtle red detailing along the body in some places in a circuit like design.
Thanks for listening to my Ted Talk 😂
My ideal lightsaber would have a black hilt and white blade, it would have a split guard similar to Cal Kestis’ and Ahsoka Tano’s. It would also have an exposed kyber crystal, and the bottom would be shaped like Darth Vaders head.
My ideal light Saber would have a 9 inch hilt of a black chrome color, a crossgard that resembles an old knights sword, the blade would be white and in shape of the dark saber, and the style that would be used with light Saber would be a custom form that is a combination of tangsodo style sword fighting and old knight style fighting.
I would dual wield. First, an ordinary blade made of song steel with a solari-kyber fused with a piece of the sunriders destiny crystal so that i have a wide blade suited to form three (my preferred form) that only I can use and cannot be destroyed by lightsabers.
My second blade would be light dagger, also made out of song steel, with a ghostfire crystal
Paired with a concentration crystal to improve my use of my ordinary blade and assist my use of form three. This would also give me an almost invisible secondary blade that would would be near impossible to parry
Love you
My ideal light sabor is a double bladed staff sabor. Black leather wrapped with fangs from beasts hanging off like a tasle. The metal is a worn black or gunmetal with two exposed crystal chamber. The switches have a etched hash pattern for a bit of a grip or texture and the emmitter has something similair to the claws on starkillers sith assassin lightsabor but since its a double blade its on both sides. The crystals are vextal crystals with katar crystal so my blades would use the force drain slowly weakening my enemies and making me stronger while also using force plague clouding their mind and also slowly killing them when struck
The blade would be in syraight legends and have both sides color being black like the black sabor color in force unleashed but the blade would also have a unstable effect like kylo rens
Dude the description
Man wrote us a book 😂
My ideal lightsaber would be two yellow lightsabers with a ability to link together like a double bladed one and also have a guard that would be parallel to the blade and when the saber is linked they would be on opposite sides I have searched but I can't seem to find out what kyber crystal jedi temple guards used but that one please
My lightsaber would be double bladed lightsaber than can be separated into two sabers with a open hilt showing my golden yellow kyber crystal and my intense purple kyber crystal
The saber hilt as a color palette of gold silver and black
Color: a golden yellow one blade and a intense purple the other
Emitter: A jaro tapal type emitter with gold tips and outlines, silver exterior and black interior
Switch: a black with gold wheel switch like rey's with an opening below in the hilt similar to star killer's hilt exposing my kyber crystal and the different saber electronics
Sleeve: a silver sleeve with a carved golden republic symbol on one side and a black star symbol carved out on the other side
The saber would also have a ring attached below the bottom emitter to attach it to a belt
And my blades will be unstable due to my kyber crystals being cracked due to a battle with a powerful sith
And I am a gray jedi
My saber forms would be form V djem so for singular blade form lll soresu for double blade and form Vl niman from two saber
Lightsaber Giveaway:
this may sound weird, but I would have a very short blade. Maybe 20 inches or less. I would do this so that I could do moves and spins that others couldn’t do. For example: I could do a spin in between my torso and arm without cutting my shoulder off.
I would have a white blade just because they’re cool and have a nice sound 😌
First group you go over, rejects the dark side.... Just another group of light side force users, been many in the time line.
I noticed this too. This video is great for learning about miscellaneous Force orders, but it’s a misleading look into what “grey Jedi” means. To be fair, this is mostly because it has no meaning, and is mostly a fan term to refer to various Force orders.
My ideal lightsaber would be: Darth Vader hilt, doubled blade, red and green + inquisitor ring
My ideal lightsaber would be a War Dragon Rider lightsaber with a Firkraan crystal alongside an Etaan crystal. My lightaber blade would be bright orange with a deep crimson outline to show my compassionate nature while also conveying my willingness to do whatever it takes to protect those I love. While this lightsaber wouldn't improve my force abilities in any way it would give me a major advantage in battle. Every attack dealt or received by my lightsaber would cause the opponent's weapon to fly backwards while also dealing out an electric shock.
Will you ever do the infinite empire
My ideal lightsaber: jaro tapal emitter, brown bandage wrapped around the sleeve of the hilt for comfort, the blade’s would be a bright blue, the hilt would be able to eject another saber, making it double-bladed.
My goal is to be like Cal Kestis. He is the perfect jedi. He also has very powerful force powers. Although I would probably use other abilities too.
My ideal lightsaber would be a double bladed one that didn't have to many knobs or buttons so it would be easy to swing and could also break apart and allow me to weild it like Ahsoka does. The color would be be a flame blade or unstable royal blue. I would use a Danderi Krystal because I think that it would be OP to recycle your force energy and while your opponent can't use the force, you can. If not that Krystal, than the Katak Krystal, because it would be OP to train your opponents abilities and then from there you can use the force and they can't.
my ideal lightsaber would be a double-sided split saber much like cal kestis’ hilt but with a more sleek model. The crystal would be cyan and would be unstable (cracked).
CONTEST ENTRY
--------------------
Hello Vaders Fortress 2. My ideal lightsaber will be explained in every specific part and design that I would want to have on my lightsaber. Starting off with the activation stud. My stud would definitely be a button for an easy turn on and off system. Me personally I wouldn’t really need a bifurcating cyclical ignition pulse just because I wouldn’t be fighting under water. Blade drain is overpowered but also extremely dangerous to have attached to your lightsaber so I’m not having that on my saber. Obviously I would have a blade emitter because otherwise it wouldn’t work. I would not have a power adjustment knob simply because I could slip up and make it to weak and also if I make it to powerful bad things could happen to the blade itself and drain energy. Obviously the cycling field energizer is always needed in every lightsaber so of course I’d have one. The diatium power cell would be real nice on my lightsaber for that extra bit of strength with each strike inflicted upon my opponent. I don’t think that the discharge nervy cell is canon but if so let me know in comments. I don’t think that a emitter matrix would be necessary because the clone wars has ended but I would still have one on just in case. In order for the lightsaber to even work I’d need an energy modulation circuit. An enhancement jewel and a extended hilt are not a part of what my lightsaber would be. A field energizer, flux aperture, stabilizing ring, and power cell are easy to obtain and will be on my lightsaber. A focusing lens is needed because other wise my lightsaber would not be in a fixated spot. It will be force activated just because if it’s far away and I need it activated I can do so. A hilt masking kit is just not necessary at all. I wouldn’t need it to like another object. Inert power insulator is always a necessary component in forging a lightsaber. I want the same amount of power always being distributed so I don’t need an ion energy cell. I don’t want a jolt cell so that settles that. Lightsaber auxiliary is only for the sith so can’t use that part. Everybody has a lightsaber lens and i want a fragile lens because it is controlled but gives off extra power with each blow. No need for a locking activator on my saber. Pressure grip is just so wonderful and completely necessary in every way, it’s on my lightsaber. I don’t know much about the radiator but I guess I should have it. And last but not least my favorite attachment is the trapped grip because I can’t have some random dude picking up my lightsaber and using it. The design of my lightsaber would be pretty much exactly like Kenobis lightsaber because of how easy it is to hold except the kyber crystal color would be purple because it is my favorite color.
curved hilt, dual phase blade, crossguard. Best saber for dueling period
my ieal lightsaber would be a dual phase lightclub with a hilt almost as long as a double bladed saber but with
only one very long blade using the mantle of the force along with a demind crystal to make the blade even bigger,
and a corusan crystal to make the blade burn hotter, the blade would be yellow
First important detail about my ideal lightsaber is the color of the kyber crystal. My ideal lightsaber would have a white kyber crystal. I think this best suits me, because I’ve done a lot of bad things in my past; things I regret so so much, but I’ve managed to turn myself around and put myself on a better path. I think this is fitting of the white crystal then, because white kyber crystals are the result of healing a red kyber crystal. The color would be white, but the crystal itself would be a Hurrikaine crystal similar to Mace Windu, since again, Mace Windu only received the crystal after regretting and making amends for a terrible action he committed. The crystal would be held in a retractable pike. The specific style of pike would have a longer blade than some other pikes do, and would be made of dark gray (almost black) metal. The pike’s ending pommel cap would extend wider than the rest of the hilt and in a round shape but sharply cut off at the end. An area extending along the middle of the pike, but a little closer to the bottom would be a battle-worn light gray wrapping. It’d be as long as a standard lightsaber hilt, and would show me where the pike retracts down to. The wrappings would go around the activator, and when retracted the pike could be used as a standard lightsaber. That would be my ideal lightsaber.
Hands down existing in three forms, dark/light/gray, & ability to use each or a combo of all is far better & more powerful than one.
my ideal lightsaber would have katana like hilt blade and blade length adjuster
See I’ve always been a fan of high risk high reward, I’d want a lightsaber that it’s very difficult to master but if done is a very powerful weapon. I’d want a lightsaber that can switch between a traditional lightsaber and a light whip, essentially the whip will tighten and straighten forming a blade. Switching between these modes in combat would be very difficult to master but if you managed it you’d be very hard to predict. You could swing at them with the whip covering long range attacks and then charge towards them confusing them, they’d be prepared ti guard against the whip and would not be ready for an attack from a blade. So yeah that’s my idea, hopefully I can win the lightsaber
My ideal lightsaber would be a double bladed lightsaber with Cal Kestis’ emitter but with Luke Skywalker’s body of the lightsaber with a purple blade. The colours of the lightsaber body would be bronze with white details and the emitter would be gold.
Here is a question to anyone in the comments and this question is especially dedicated to Vader‘s fortress do you all think that the galactic republic and the Jedi order considered the eternal Empire is being aligned with the light side of the force or aligned to the Darkside of the force because archon and Valen used the force but in the same manner as Jedi and Sith but the light saber blades were yellow on like Jedi or Sith that had red blue or green light saber blades and do you think that the eternal empire alongside the eternal fleet is even more powerful than the imperial Navy at the height of the Galactic Empire to rain
My ideal lightsaber:
would be shaped like my masters, palpatine 😂. It would have a cut out window to show the Hurrikane Crystal (like Starkillers), and the Emitter would be like Darth Tyranus’, with a sharp black blade on the end to sometimes k!ll my enemies quietly. And the entirety of the hilt would be made of beskar to prevent any damage or destruction (like what happened to Ezra’s). For the switches, the blade length and power adjuster would be gold and the activation lever black. The purple crystal (Hurrikane Crystal) signifying that I have a deep knowledge of the Dark side, as well as the light.
My ideal lightsaber:
Single flicker phase blade with crossguard
Hilt made of beskar and plated with a dark blue metal
Ghosfire + impact crystals so invisible blade of course
Force lightning shield to electrify the blade
My ideal lightsaber would be mace windu’s lightsaber. I feel like as one of the few main black characters in stars it always gave me someone I could see myself in when I was younger look up to. he is portrayed as powerful, intelligent and has a dark side that that he controls with discipline. #giveaway #myfirstsaber #macewindu
I would use a shoto saber with a ghostfire crystal, color would be yellow.
Ghost fire Crystals produce a near invisible blade with a tracer effect that follows the translucent blade
@@DixieCrusader-X- I'd be a Mandalorian bounty hunter who uses Mandalorian tools similar to how Sabine does, and I'd also use the Takata technique. I'd be unstoppable.
This video was amazing. There's not just 2 sides of the force, the light side/Jedis and the dark side/sith. There's only the force, that's what the Grey jedi believe in
well Jedi grey do believe in light and dark side of the force. just that do not fallow the Jedi council. Gary orders are light side leaning but do not focus on the will of the force. dark side order focus on doing things that not natural or against the will of the force.
I like how none Jedi force users are like
*I am no jedi*
Everyone else
*gray Jedi it is*
I would be training every single day and try to make up my own move. So I can be the best. Then go to planet and help people out with there problem. While gathering technology an army and credit
My ideal lightsaber is a green blade with a cracked crystal from battle to get the cracked effect the hilt would have a small vibroblade inside the hilt would be a combination of obi-wans Luke’s second saber and anakins the emitter would be obi-wans the middle grip would be Luke’s and the bottom grip is anakins it’s simple and I like it
If I was force sensitive I think I go with the blackgaurd of mustafar
Seems like a gray area
Wait is the mandos the good guys or bad?
I think imperial knight where largest gray order because of need of force sensitives use their power to protect the emperor and citizens form those who would do harm. They are gray because they are loyal to a government first and not the force.
I am so happy someone actually talked about the grey Jedi
No such thing, he outright said each groups affiliation. I don't mind other groups, but call a duck a duck and a goose a goose.
@@TheBearInTheChair Right? It’s a mostly fan-made term that can apply to anything from someone who’s unaligned, a non-Jedi lightsider, or someone who dabbles in both sides and hasn’t been corrupted by the dark side yet. The term is functionally meaningless other than being “kinda different”.
The video starts by labeling them as groups that use both the light and dark side, but then starts off with the Imperial Knights, who are firmly anti-dark side. It also leaves out the end of the Jensaarai, where in 130 ABY, the One Sith came to their planet and gave them a join-or-die ultimatum. Despite their dabbling in the dark side that was allegedly careful enough to not corrupt them, many Jensaarai joined the Sith willingly at the drop of a hat, and aided them in eradicating their former order.
The dark side corrupts. Intent only partially matters. The Potentium was a ticking time bomb in this regard.
Btw this video was AMAZING. I love gray Jedi and their whole philosophy. Abandoning the absolutes of just Light and Dark, and just being one with the force as a whole. P.S. paired with my ideal lightsaber, I would have a character that is like a wandering nomad, being one with the force as a whole, hunting Jedi and Sith that give in to the ideologies of their orders. Like a ronin from ancient Japan. Hence the style of my sabers.
However!
Lol yeah old script. It is the best word in the English language but way too tempting to use it too often in these kinda scripts
Hello how’s life
My ideal Disney lightsaber would actually be the very first ever Lightsaber Shield. The handle/arm brace made from Beskar and the actual circular 🛡️ made from complete lightsaber energons. I could throw it and control it's path using Teh Force/telikenesis, allowing it to repeatedly strike targets and then come safely back to my arm.
*TM* DISNEY DO NOT STEAL
Grey jedi is my fav group in all of star wars
Is it? Are they even a group? Do all of these groups in the video have anything in common other than being Force users?
Was Anakin always meant to be a grey Jedi then?
Mandalorian knight, every, single, time, all the toys and cool powers plus beimg able to have kids and family because duh, this is the way
Excellent video . I often tell people grey jedi are real and they always say im full of it . Ty
He is not proving anything, he just talking about what groups "we" consider "Grey". While I don't mind other schools existing, but they are neither labeled as such in Legends nor Canon. It's either light or dark, with groups that try to embody both going on to splintering or falling.
@@TheBearInTheChair thats true . There is a but. But if you were to learn to use both aspects thats makrs you grey even if youre not darkside . Ezra bridger and Maul teaching him how to help him in the temple.
@@TheBearInTheChair imo mace windoo is a grey jedi. Shatterpoint can be anything. Combined with Vapod he was perfect for defeating sith.
@@wickedsbane, Maul was only using what he was taught (the dark side) to help coach Ezra, while it is not always moral to strike down a defenseless opponent in combat it is always ethical to take the upper hand wherever you can.
@@TheBearInTheChair sure but that doesnt change what the definition of a grey jedi is and what is required in morality and philosophy and use of the force in both ways. To far to one side is a pure jedi or sith . Someone who only sees morality through the force may not see morality as the most beings who ise it. Unafraid to use a supposedly taboo use of the force to the jedi , when you are sure of balance anything that brings victory or balance will be used to attain that end as a vessel for the will of the force.
Please let me have the dooku lightsaber it's the coolest thing in all of star wars
May the X- Force be with you.
Draw out the last words
My ideal lightsaber would be a thin white katana with je’daii markings making up the blade’s hamon (markings across the blade). It would also contain multiple crystals, as to change from a katana to a 3 stringed whip. The hilt would be light, tactical looking, and easy to handle, being a gold color and having small markings along the hilt. Other crystals give the blade flexibility, making it easier to slice through giant opponents and tough meat. The hilt would also be flat, like a katana’s hilt.
Love this video. Thankfully you're not like Geetsly. I vehemently disagree with his stance on the Force.
My ideal light saber would be the design of the dark saber. Modified to hold two crystals one would be the crystal that warps perspective, and a ghost fire crystal. My lightsaber would have a smaller lightsaber that detaches, with a - crystal
Wooooooo!!! Grey Jedi!!!!
Honestly I would be some kind of Grey Jedi if I was in that universe and had access to the force
I would follow a philosophy similar to the Jedi, but way less strict and more open to use the dark side to achieve Justice, including killing bad people that could cause harm in the future
My ideology is similar to the Jensaarai (Post Empire), actually...they sound very cool and fitting for me...nice
That's why Qui is probably my favorite Jedi
BuT tHeyRe nOt reAl
Wait..... Aren't sith lightning, and force judgment... Literally the exact same thing? Maybe they're not just both biggots and we shoulda been following kreya all along
first lol 55 seconds
Ben1054 was before u mate
There can’t be light without dark, there can’t be dark without light, and there can’t be the force without both.
If Star Wars was real I would definitely want to be a gray Jedi over Sith or normal Jedi.they’re more powerful than most Jedi and Sith and I agree that the force should be used as a balance between light and dark
Imagine talking about authoritarianism and democracy, as if democracy doesn't fall into the category of authoritarianism.
Wouldn't the knights of Ren be considerd grey jedi's?
nope, a dark side order is what they are.
@@TheBearInTheChair Most of the gray jedi orders that are known do heavily emrace the dark side, so where does the line draw for the knights of Ren?
@@ursatzotschew7541, you have orders that embrace the light and those that embrace the dark, then you have orders that try to embrace both and they either splinter to their respective views or fall to the dark side. All that said, there is no such thing as a grey jedi in Legends or Canon, just Jedi, Sith, their splinter cells, or unaffiliated groups that have their own light side/dark side doctrine.
@@ursatzotschew7541 Most of the grey Jedi orders heavily embrace the dark side, and some are staunchly against it, so the real question is where does this video draw the line on what counts as this fan-made term. To be clear, grey Jedi don’t exist.
I read the title and thought it said gay jedi
Equal light and dark true balance
Nope, you missed the parts where he talked about the fall of groups that tried.
Nope. That’s saving a puppy from drowning and then murdering a puppy later to counteract the good with the bad. It’s nonsense as a start, and it gets worse when the puppy-murder was done with Force Lightning, which corrupts the mind and makes the user want to use the Force for more evil.
A balanced diet of light and dark side is not perfect balance, it’s chaos for a small window of time before it inevitably becomes a future Sith lord’s origin story. This is how it always starts.
at first i was who where the gay jedis lmao
