  • Atris kept a record of the day Meetra Surik came before the Jedi council and was exiled for following Revan to the mandalorian wars. This record however shines a light on the fact that following Revan wasn't only reason she was exiled.

    1:36 "guardians of peace" - Were the Mandalorians being peaceful in their campaign?
    2:03 "You refuse to hear us" "shut yourself from the galaxy" - Wasn't the galaxy asking for help against the Mandalorians?
    I can see the hypocrisy Revan was so critical of

      I think the Jedi here aren't as hypocritical as that. In their eyes, the mandalorians were simply the false front for the real threat, which they weren't wrong about. Plus, when they did go to war, they created more problems like Revan, Malak and the Sith Triumvirate.
      The ideal course would have been to give partial support of the order and let Revan go out while keeping him under a semblance of control.
      This is where they erred. They proved to be uncompromising and chose secrecy rather than openness. They weren't bad or even hypocritical, just wrong in their approach and very afraid of change. And reasonably speaking, the biggest jedi turned dark sider names in history all had been revolutionary style jedi. So soon after Exar Kun, the order sensed something was wrong.
      They changed their hideboundness when they helped Revan again, but Nhilus killing them off changed all that.
      I'd say that Revan never particularly hated the order. He just disliked the fact that they were choosing too much prudence over helping people immediately.
      These jedi are victims of tragedy rather than fools. It's worth remembering how, for the most part, they would be willing to sacrifice themselves to just help others.

      But with all due respect, the Jedi had no idea the Sith were involved with the Mandalorian Wars. If they did, they wouldn't have been so apathetic, or at least not as much. It was Revan who discovered the Sith's plot and determined that the Jedi as they were weren't ready to fight them
      Also even though the Jedi were being cautious to not make more fallen Jedi, they're inaction still drew the ire of victims of the Mandalorian Wars, including the former Republic soldiers who would follow Darth Revan

      @@TerminatorGundam300 I think they realised something was involved. Not particularly the sith, but something out there that was puppeting the events.
      I think that that was less about inaction drawing ire compared to just Revan being super charismatic and popular to the extent where he as a concept became greater than the republic.
      Again, I don't think they took the right approach. Just that they weren't really hypocritical or even strictly wrong about the consequences. They understood one bad result but didn't understand the consequences of their own.

      They were blind to the Sith because of their hypocrisy. The Jedi Masters were distant from the people of the galaxy they claim to be protecting, which allowed Malak and Revan to turn the opinions of the galaxy against the Jedi, even after Malak had fallen and Revan disappeared. And when Nihilus consumed Katar along with many of the Jedi Masters, the remaining Jedi Masters could not see him, Sion, or their former master because they were too dependent on the Force. They ignored people who needed their help while they waited for their enemies to reveal themselves, and countless died while the masters stood by and did nothing. While the Masters waited, the Mandalorians, Malak, and Nihilus destroyed entire planets and slaughtered countless. While the Jedi Masters refused to act until they were the ones being threatened. They were not protectors of anything but the Jedi Order itself. The apathy of the Jedi caused deaths because they chose to stand by and do nothing while people were dying, and that in turn drove others away from the Jedi and towards the Sith. Which in turn caused even more deaths when the next threat arrives and they ignore it until they are forced into action yet again. This cycle is why the Sith continue to exist and will continue to cause death and destruction throughout the galaxy while greater threats keep rising, until eventually one succeeds in destroying the Jedi and the Republic.
      It's the core flaw of their teachings, that they rely too much on the Force and disconnect themselves from the people they're supposed to be protecting. How many planets suffered because the Jedi Masters waited too long to act? How many turned to the Dark Side because they learned to hate the Jedi? How many times has the galaxy been threatened because the Jedi allowed the Sith to rise to power? Much like how the Sith destroys themselves constantly through their own teachings, the Jedi teachings were ensuring that new Sith would continue to exist until they succeed in destroying the Jedi.

      @@twinodoom It's easy to claim they were blind to the atrocities, but what's the way to avoid them? Would you rather all the Jedi fell like Revan and Malak due to the war?
      They could not sense nihilus or sion because of the force? Non force users can't really sense them till it's too late either.
      Malak and Revan didn't convince many but the military, they regularly glassed planets too.
      If the Jedi all participated, they would all fall. Only their inaction saved the galaxy from a brutal reign. But since nearsightedness shows that they didn't help people, they didn't help people. It's due to their inaction that eventually, Malak, Sion Nihilus would all be beaten, and the jedi would rise again. They had their errors, but there was no clear alternative to their actions like people love to claim.

    Rating this council from good to evil:
    Kavar: I honestly kinda liked this guy. He shared the rest of the council's flawed beliefs, but I think he was the most polite in expressing his beliefs. "Forgive us, but it is necessary" is what he said when they tried to cut her off from the force. And his actions post-war were commendable and seemed to line up with the Jedi code. He helped win on Onderon by defending the queen rather than fight on enemy territory. I dare say he had much potential. He would have become Meetra's mentor if not for his duties to the council? If he were born in the Clone Wars era and been a part of that council, maybe his potential would have been put to better use. Which would have been awesome!
    Vash: I commend her for sticking up for our Meetra and assuring she was not of the dark side, despite being part of the council's decision and informing her of such a conclusion. I'm not too sure she liked being the bearer of bad news. She also believes that Meetra should have been told what happened to her. Kinda glad they didn't though, since I really enjoyed the game that became of it. Too bad she went to Korriban and fell to the Sith before more could be learned about her... Wait, that sounds a bit like Revan, does it?
    Zez Kai Ell: Among the more soft-spoken in the Jedi council, he even retired after the Exile was... well, you know by now. My problem with him is that he's quite the coward. He's by far the Jedi who has done the least for the world he has gone to... or at least for us. But just as well, he does admit to how the Jedi do have their weaknesses. He seemed to understand what Revan believed in. In the end, however, he thought Meetra had to be exiled and that the council had to prepare against the Sith. But considering she used the Mass Shadow Generator, which is kind of the Outer Rim equivalent to mega white phosphorus, I suppose he has a bit of a point.
    Vrook: How did this codger escape the destruction of the Dantooine academy?? He's got to be an even bigger coward than Zez Kai Ell! Or maybe he was out getting groceries when it happened, who knows? But seriously, what bothers me about him is that he is overly harsh. Sure he admits that it's because he thinks the Jedi need to step up their game since the Republic is teetering on the edge of collapse, fair enough. But come on, guy! You thought that stepping up your game meant being intentionally captured?? Not to mention, you criticized Revan and the Exile for going into enemy territory, WHEN THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT YOU DID TO PROTECT KHOONDA! If not for you and Atris, which we'll soon get to, maybe less Jedi would have joined Revan in his path to the darkside, and maybe Zez Kai Ell would've had a tougher time leaving. At least Vash and Kavar were compassionate! Hell, Vrook already told Meetra she didn't have much potential as a jedi LONG before her involvement with the Mandalorian Wars. Man, you're a dick. Then again, you are voiced by Ed Asner. And to be fair, he's a pretty awesome voice actor. If I were judging by voice acting alone, I think he'd be at the top. But in terms of bad morality, only one beats him out by a landslide, because at least Vrook did admit Meetra has potential after all...
    Atris: I already did a mini-essay on why this bint is such a hypocrite in Papito's video A Darth Traya is Born, but to recap some of it, she is both the biggest coward and the biggest hypocrite among this council. Calling for death? Malak did just that. Going to war? Revan did just that. Hording Sith holocrons in a stupid attempt to use such knowledge against them? Not only is it insane, but your actions connected to them are very cowardly, because you made Echani handmaidens into pawns who couldn't feel the force and notice you were turning to darkside. And the Exile? You used her as bait, which you yourself admitted and felt no shame for. The sole saving grace is that in the end, she encouraged Meetra to save Telos, and finally realized the error of her rashness. But since the council never even went as far as she did in the first place, that's enough to consider her the most evil of this council.

      @Haljordan4life It was a lose lose situation. If they did nothing they would be seen as letting the galaxy burn. Acting unfortunately had them play into the Emperor's plans. The Jedi certainly did have some hypocritical issues but I wouldn't say that made them corrupt really. They did try to put the needs of the galaxy first every time and even then I would say it was mainly the council that had those hypocritical problems. The majority of the Jedi actually were putting others ahead of themselves or trying to. Even the Jedi in the old republic games are still good, they're just so set in their ways.
      I do think it's strange that people like to say the Jedi are as bad as the Sith.

      Agree so much with this. Atris is a really underrated character in my opinion. When you meet her, she comes across as the sanctimonious bitch. But there's so much more to her, and her arc than say Bastila, and in the end she had meaningful reasons for why she regarded the Exile the way she did - that envy and a feeling of betrayal toward someone she admired greatly for doing something she was afraid of doing herself. And in the end she came to terms with everything she'd done, and made peace with the Exile. While the rest of the council who came across as more reasonable than Atris, where just blind to the truth, and unwilling to open their eyes as Atris had.
      The Council die because Kreia cuts them off from the force, and they are unable to survive such a shock. Would be interesting to know whether Atris could have survived it, as the Exile and Kreia did.

    Its an ideal being turned into a culture. The Jedi believed they were true guardians of the peace. But they didn’t fully comprehend what they condemned. Kavar, Atris, and Vrook jumped the gun. And didn’t see how their own part was played by their own arrogance.

The jedi literally were corrupted long before the jedi civil war, and long long long before the rise Darth Bane. The old republic is a pure example of jedi who always believed they were correct. To the point where corruption lay rampant and it was on their doorstep and they died realizing their own kind, “Kriea was a jedi” destroyed their foundations because. “She knew they were wrong.”

      At that time, the Jedi were not as centralized and organized order as during the late old republic. The story of KotOR is based upon the Knights of the Old Republic comics from the 90s which predate Episode 1. The expanded universe authors imagined the Jedi more like individualistic champions than a religious order of monks. They were more "knights". They could start learning at a later age (like Luke), could marry and have children sometimes (e. g. story of Nomi Sunrider). They had multiple academies like Ossus, Dantooine.

But the healing she gains (from Force bonds) is a threat to them since they literally try to cut her off from the Force and say that she is "siphoning energy. The path she uses to heal herself clearly wasn't the one they were thinking because they are mystified when they see her; they even mention they STILL don't feel the Force with her even though she wields it. Thematically, it's fascinating, because she is clearly an outlier. I'm just curious what their conventional healing path back to the Force would have been, what they would've explained to her.

    The Jedi Council fooled themselves. They wanted to believe they were just, and that they made hard choices from the war against the Sith that ensured the survival of the Order, even at the cost of some compromises. But we see the truth here in front of us, that they were always like this, long before the Sith wars came. Closed-minded, judgmental, resentful, and some of them even full of hatred. And the ones that tried to do right, like Masters Vandar and Vash, died for their efforts because the rest of the Order would not stand with them. The cowards, the worms like Vrook, Zez-Kai Ell and Kavar survived by abandoning the Jedi Code and desperately clinging to a selfish and bitter existence, even as they deluded themselves into believing they were still Jedi - the only TRUE Jedi.

    Well, they were wrong and right at the same time. Revan and jedi who followed him all died or turned to the dark side. Something similar happened during Yuuzhan-Vong War when 2/3 of Luke's Order led by Kyp Durron followed path, similar to Revan's, however, Luke was wiser and less passive than this council, he fought Yuuzhan-Vongs as well and his leadership prevent most of the jedi from turning to the dark side. Eventually, Luke and Kyp both learnt from each other.

    The original Sith teachings were created by fallen Jedi. Intentional or not, their arrogance time and time again that only the light was the true nature of the force brought nothing but destruction. These fallen Jedi fled, becoming enemies of the order and returned to wage war against the republic throughout the ages.
    Depending on the Lore, the Jedi themselves don't view themselves as followers of Absolutism.
    If you want a comparison to how ignorant orders and civilizations become by forgetting or losing knowledge and believing in an all encompassing truth. Look to the following three.
    Spoilers ahead.
    The Elves of Dragon Age who believed that Humanity destroyed their civilization and enslaved them. In truth the Elven fought and destroyed themselves and Humanity simply took slaves from a weakened people. Their own kind treated them as slaves in ways far worse than Humanity and knowledge of their facial tattoos and their meaning became lost to time. Slave Markings, not Marks of Adulthood.
    Legends: A lightsaber is the weapon of a Jedi. The original lightsaber technology came from the first force users that relied exclusively on the Dark side. The Rakata of the Infinite Empire. The blades that could only activated by channeling negative emotions. The Jedai'ii order who promoted balance between the two, not a single viewpoint.
    The Forerunners of Halo who believed they had inherited their ideology and purpose as caretakers and custodians from the Precursors. The truth was that Humanity and the Forerunners were created and the Precursors decided Humanity was to inherit the Mantle. The forerunners after wiping out their ancient creators down thousands of generations forgot that they were not given anything. They stole it, and they brought ruin upon the galaxy from the reanimated amalgam hordes of the Flood.
    So moral of the story?

If they had joined the war, then there would be no jedi to fight Darth Revan and then Darth Malak.

      I checked Wookieepedia, and it doesn't say who was Grand Master at the time. However the most recent person to hold the position was Nomi Sunrider, a veteran of the Great Sith War and a main character in the "Tales of the Jedi" comic book series. She became Grand Master c. 3986 BBY, but it is never established when her term ended. Surik's trial occurred in 3959 BBY, and the events of the game occur eight years later in 3951 BBY. It is possible, although unlikely, that Sunrider was Grand Master at the time of the trial, but she likely would have perished in the Sith's purge of the Jedi. Satele Shan became Grand Master at some point between 3653 BBY, when the Treaty of Coruscant was signed, and 3645 BBY. She was given the honor due to her heroics in the Great Galactic War and her rediscovery of Tython, the birthplace of the Jedi Order. Fae Coven became Grand Master after the conclusion of the New Sith Wars and the Ruusan Reformations in 1000 BBY, and would serve until sometime after 896 BBY. The next known Grand Master after her is Yoda, and we all know about him.

      I would argue that even taking the middle ground is flawed. The Force simply is and the Jedi and Sith have sought to categorise it, to take the middle ground between the two extremes is to acknowledge those dogmas still. The wielders of the Force should shy away from joining these massive organisations, as they lose their individuality to the Jedi or Sith code, and form their own individual philosophies.
      It's like in reality, you can choose to be Left Wing, Right Wing, a Centrist, a Christian, a Hindu a Muslim etc...these different philosophies can help you find yourself but many simply pick a team that shares most of their values and instead of questioning the values they don't hold they simply adopt them because that's the team they've chosen. That's how you get endlessly repeating conflicts, both in reality and in Star Wars. Learn from existing philosophies, but don't surrender your individuality to them.
