The allakhazam.com Star Wars Galaxies Community Pages state: 'Monika T'Sarn of the PA Combine on the Intrepid Server unlocked her force sensitive slot today. Akinom T'Sarn (her FS character) is the first player confirmed Jedi Initiate in all of Star Wars Galaxies.' Here is a pic of the new Jedi." We recently ran a story on lack of player Jedi in SWG.

    "And who's going to pay for an Ewok character auction on Ebay? ;)"

    Are you kidding? A single Ewok with a sling can take down legions of Stormtroopers: you'd be the most feared character in the Empire.

    Actually, I'm surprised that in the Star Wars films that Jedi, in general, are not hated or at least disliked due to their elevated, god-like status. The Jedi in films one and two also display a certain amount of arrogance.

    Maybe that has something to do with the fact that by episode IV, there are only three left. One is a vicious psychopath who maintains his existence by throttling anyone who bothers him, the other two are reclusive hermits.

    Oops, forgot the Emperor. Four, then, two of them vicious psychopaths.

    Nahh, that reasoning gives Lucas far too much credit.

    Well now we have the first Jedi, in SWG, they are supposed to be UBER-character in the game right?

    *BBBZZZZTTT*

    The first jedi has turned into a freak show, everyone wants watch and follow them around. Look at this! Would you want to be a Jedi with this mob around you? No wonder all the Jedi are hermits hiding in the farthest reaches from everyone. Or maybe she will go to the dark side and start killing everyone. At least we know why they become so EVIL!
