Jedi Sentinel

"This Jedi ferrets out deceit and injustice, bringing it to light."

- Dorak

The Jedi Sentinels sought a balance between the two extremes of the Jedi, the Jedi Consulars and the Jedi Guardians. They possessed adequate combat skills and have some extensive knowledge of the Force. Along with this blended knowledge of both combat and the Force, they also had exceptional skills, whether they were in security, computers, stealth techniques, or medicine.

History
They also practiced a form of Force Immunity that crossed Force training with mental conditioning, allowing them to withstand outside mental influence. This allowed them protection from fear, stun and paralysis effects.

Sentinels were often dispatched to regions across the galaxy to root out the dark side and investigate unusual concentrations of the Force, similar to the Jedi Shadow and Jedi investigator.

The most notable Jedi Sentinel was Bastila Shan who, while still a Padawan, mastered the ancient and difficult art of battle meditation.

Traditionally, they wielded yellow bladed lightsabers, however in practise, this was not always the case.

Behind the scenes

 * The use of the term Jedi Sentinel, first introduced in Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic as one of the Jedi starting classes, was solely created for the game, and does not appear in the pen and paper version of the Star Wars Roleplaying Game. This class is mostly signified by a yellow lightsaber.
 * In Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords, the prestige class that corresponds to Jedi Sentinel is Jedi Watchman. The dark side counterpart is Sith Assassin.
 * The class presumably became canon in the Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic comic series along with Jedi Guardian and Consular.
 * In the Star Wars Miniatures set Champions of the Force the Jedi Sentinel class is represented by Visas Marr. Although she was the Sith apprentice to Darth Nihilus, she was still of the Sentinel class and later redeemed, becoming an apprentice to the Jedi Exile.
