Although I understand that this image of the Jedi Exile ws chosen because it is the promotional appearance. In the end I think the Jedi exile should be canonized as an androgynous mystery with appearance being blend of all possible faces from the game morph-melded into one, because it really disenfranchises players of the game to see this character that may have looked nothing like the one we might have played, replaced by this guy who likes like the archetypical white male. In fact He almost looks like a fascist. Also all pronouns should be replaced with the terms The Exile,Exile,or the Jedi Exile, this leaves it to remain an open question as to the exact nature of The Exile's gender. This I think keeps the force in balance as it leaves no room for the illusion of racial or gender superiority in human force sensitives. I say this because Much wieght in the game varies soley on the bases of gender. For this variation many actions and dialog differences there are. also the alignment path of the Exile was should be left to question, e.g. was the Exile striving to be a Jedi Consular, a Sith Assasin, or a force insensative altogether. Any story about the Jedi Exile should keep these ambiguities open this is my challenge to contributors of this Wiki. To me this also matters because The Exile is such a pivitol character in the galactic history of force almost as pivitol as Luke Skywalker is although in a much less celebrated role. I think The exile was in a position to initiate a new order of the force much like Luke Skywalker is abled to do in his own time! I say this because at the time the Exile came back to the force the other Jedi were dead or in no position to stop the the Exile's order! The Sith were scattered remnants or were destroyed trying to hunt the Exile. As I was playing I wound up with two apprentices under me (Visas and the Last of the Handmaidens) and I was still learning under Kreia. Admittedly I have yet to defeat the entire game dark, light or "gray" so obviously I don't know how this will turn out perhaps the two will try to kill each other, or even more likely one will abandon me as I commit to one side in an efort to enter the cave on Korriban or whatever, I've learned by constantly saving my game in different threads that it is generally unwise to have some members in your party at moments in the game that will cause you to commit acts that cause a major shift to the dark or light side of the force, as their principles are almost diametricaly opposite. I intend to use my influence upon them to errode thier principles to suit my purposes. perhaps in the end it should be said that this was the exiles ultimate fate, the informal initiation of a obscured or unofficial order of exiled jedi. That answer neither to the Sith or to the Jedi council, but have sank into obscurity or disappeared for their lack of force polarity. It should be during the time of the NEw order that they or their teachings are discovered again or revived..perhaps.
 * The only reason we here use masculine references is because it's much simpler. Having to say The Exile repeatedly can make sentances sound awkward. However, we include a disclaimer at the bottom, saying our only reason for using the male is because it's "Obsidian's" Exile (IE, the one they always use), which makes it a very handy reference point, otherwise making a picture or referring to the character is made that much more difficult. --Fade 15:11, 14 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Anyway, is it the Exile? I always assumed it was a Dark Jedi or another minor Jedi character. - Sikon 13:11, 29 Jun 2005 (UTC)

RE:I understand that it could be awkward but that is the challenge nonetheless. I think it will merely challenge authors to be more mindful of their writing..Leaving the character open could cause much potential for authors of the expanded universe, but at the same time it would be the single most controverial and unresolvable inconsistancy of the expanded universe the identity of the Jedi Exile yet still I don't see why it should be any other way..in the end it is Obsidians character (with permission of course from LucasArts to exist in the Star Wars Universe ) and not mine.
