Talk:Jaden Korr/Archive1

Notice how Star Wars canon always dictates these design them yourself heroes are always male. Lucas is so incredibly sexist.
 * Yes, and the Light Side ending is always the default! How dare they discriminate against Evil! And I've never seen a Star Wars game with a hero character with ten legs! How dare they be so anti-decapodian! &mdash;Darth Culator  23:33, 30 Sep 2005 (UTC)
 * Leland Chee is trying to have the Jedi Exile declared canonically female, though. &mdash; Silly Dan  23:42, 30 Sep 2005 (UTC)
 * Actually, Lucasfilm hasn't stated Korr's gender. We were the ones that said he was male. Also, how many Sauvax Jedi have you heard about? -- SFH 23:45, 30 Sep 2005 (UTC)
 * Since Jadens appearance and gender has yet to be determind, it cannot be "assumed" that Jaden was a green eyed, brown haired, human male.
 * Just to add some fuel to the fire, one potentially canon appearance for Jaden is in this Wizards article on Hoth. Here's the pic. Although that article already made one glaring mistake in that Kyle Katarn supposedly went on the mission with Jaden... Eyrezer 02:29, 5 Dec 2005 (UTC) [[Image:canon Jaden.jpeg|thumb|right|300px]]
 * A female Twi'lek? That's rich. I wouldn't be so quick in declaring this Jaden canon, though. Maybe someone should email Cory Herndon (cjh@hernco.net) and point at the mistake about Katarn? Although this article is so old that he has probably received thousands of these... - Sikon [ Talk ] 05:50, 5 Dec 2005 (UTC)
 * Yeah I think his mistake was quickly pointed out to him when the article first came out. He hadn't actually played the level which seems a rather poor excuse. I guess that is the way it goes sometimes. Eyrezer 07:04, 5 Dec 2005 (UTC)
 * How would thsi in any way be canon? A twi'lek?and a female Twi'Lek at that, it seems prety obvious that is not canon according to all that is stated about Jaden, why would you even suggest this to be canon, actually dont answer that, it is obvious you were just being stupid, a lot of people do that, except me of course. Try not to be stupid again!

Gender Update
The New Essential Chronology pins Jaden's gender down as male, although his species isn't yet specified.

I updated the vital stats box. I suppose I'll go through and replace some of the repetetive "Jaden"'s with "he" when I have time, if someone doesn't get to it before I do. --000 01:50, 3 Jan 2006 (UTC)

What about using the word "customizable" in the character box?


 * For species? Too OOU, I'd guess.--000 03:52, 9 Jan 2006 (UTC)
 * I hate to break it to you guys but I had a look at where Jaden is mentioned (only in reference to Disciples of Ragnos) and it only says his. His, him, he is a term that is used generally if the gender is unknown. Its still possible that Jaden is a female. --Redemption 20:54, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Unknown gender usually goes by "they" or "them" or "he/she"--DannyBoy7783 21:21, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
 * But didn't the Jaden page go by "he" for simplification purposes? "He" is used as a term as for the MALE or for either genders. The book saying "him" at the end of the paragraph isn't enough to say that Jaden is a male --Redemption 21:46, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
 * They are typically pretty careful about that sort of thing. I feel comfortable leaving the gender as male until indicated otherwise elsewhere. By the very nature of wiki, it can easily be altered if it is shown that the "he" did not indicate a male. Eyrezer 22:07, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Could you provide the passage where the term "he" is used, Redemption? I'm interested in seeing how the author phrased it. Something like this usually depends on the context in which it is appears. SM-716 06:18, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Jaden Korr's herorics brought an end to the crisis, as well as pride to his teacher. This is the only time when he/she/him/her is used in the paragraph about Jaden. --Redemption 23:22, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
 * "He" is only used gender-neutrally as an indefinite pronoun, as in "Everybody brought his dog." I've never heard it used as a gender-neutral definite pronoun.  You would never hear someone say "Mary was a good student, and he studied a lot" if they didn't know what sex Mary was, for example.  Or "I met a friend at the movies, and he bought a soda."  That really wouldn't be interpreted to mean that the friend could be female.  And in-universe, there's no reason Voren Na'al wouldn't know Jaden's sex, as he would still be alive at that time.  Basically, if "he" isn't enough to say someone is male, I don't know what is.  That's just what gender-specific pronouns are for in a language. - Lord Hydronium 23:36, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, obviously you wouldn't use it with a name like Mary...the way that the paragraph is written, how do you expect someone to say that? "as well as pride to it's teacher"? This is definitly neutral and nothing has can be established from this one snipit where it can be disputed on what is meant. --Redemption 00:23, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Which is exactly why I used "Mary" as an example. "Jaden" may not convey gender to us, but nothing indicates it doesn't in the GFFA.  As to what I'd use, I'd say "he" if Jaden was male and "she" if Jaden was female.  "He" certainly isn't neutral*.  It's specifically the male third person singular pronoun.  That's exactly the purpose of gender marking in language; if I say "I talked to my friend, and he was happy", no one would ever interpret that to mean my friend is female.  Language exists to express meaning, and the meaning of "he" is that the subject is male.  If "he" was gender-neutral, it would also be perfectly valid to say "He was a female" or use the Mary example.  I'll also ask that if someone being called "he" isn't enough proof that they're male, then what is?  Does every character exist in a state of confused gender ambiguity until someone says, "Hello Jaden, you male!" * Footnote: "He" as a definite pronoun, that is, a pronoun referring to one specific subject, is not gender-neutral.  As an indefinite pronoun, as in "Everybody and his brother", where there is no specific antecedent, it is.  In the NEC, it's used specifically to refer to Jaden, thus a definite pronoun and gender-marked. - Lord Hydronium 00:48, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
 * The author could have easily rephrased that without using any pronouns if he/she had truly wished for Jaden's gender to remain ambiguous. ("Jaden Korr's herorics brought an end to the crisis, as well as pride to Master Katarn.") "His" was used purposefully. I'm convinced he's male. SM-716 05:50, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
 * If someone was talking to you and they said, "Ggshsneix made his teacher very proud," would you seriously assume that Ggshsneix was a woman just because you had no idea about the name? Kuralyov 05:46, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
 * No...but I also wouldn't assume it was a man (with a name like that I would assume that he was some weird alien species without any real gender...) I stand by that "him" is ambiguous and you cannot just jump to this conclusion. --Redemption 06:02, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Are we going to have to take a vote on this? Because it looks like it's 7 (including me) to 1 in favor of taking the language literally. &mdash;Darth Culator   (talk)  06:07, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Do whatever your little heart disires. Can't blame anyone but yourselfs if the article assumes something that hasn't been made 100% fact. -Redemption 06:14, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I suspect we won't be surprised if/when they state Jaden's gender more explicitly. &mdash;Darth Culator   (talk)  06:22, 11 March 2006 (UTC)

Imagery
Would anyone object to the addition of a few images of Jaden's possible likenesses to the Behind the Scenes section? This is a pretty solid article that just seems kinda bare without any imagery to accompany it. If it's agreed that the New Essential Chronology identifies Jaden as male, I'll limit the pictures to the Kel Dor, Rodian, and human male player models from the game. I'm also kinda wondering if there's some way to add a main image at the top of the article... like something that describes Jaden's character without actually revealing his appearance.... SM-716 20:20, 4 March 2006 (UTC) It hints at a green saber. Not canon. Can't use it.--DannyBoy7783 09:05, 12 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I agree with SM-716. If someone can come up with something, please let us know!--DannyBoy7783 15:45, 9 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Here's what I came up with as a candidate for the main image... what does everybody think? Would this be acceptable as Jaden's main profile picture? Does it seem like a good solution to the problem, or does it just seem hokey like Nanny from the Muppet Babies? Is it acceptably official and canonical? Is the green lightsaber blade permissable? Does it seem precise enough to be identifiable as the player character from Jedi Academy, while remaining ambiguous enough about his species (or his/her gender, even)? Input is greatly appreciated. But the way I see it is this: male or female, human or alien, one thing is for certain. At one point in his/her life, Jaden definitely wore that puffy Hoth vest. SM-716 06:35, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I think the green blade kills it. I think you are on the right track though.--DannyBoy7783 21:57, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
 * An argument in defense of the green blade:Saber color was definitely something that crossed my mind, but I didn't think the green blade would be wholly objectionable. It seems to me that lightsaber color, particularly in the Expanded Universe, is a minor and negligible detail. Several EU Jedi (most of whom are far more canonical than Jaden Korr) have been portrayed with varying lightsaber colors without any explanation. Adi Gallia's saber is either red, orange, or blue depending on who you ask; Corran Horn has been seen with green, blue, and red sabers; Yun's saber was yellow in Jedi Knight, blue in the novelization, and orange in Mysteries of the Sith. And yet each source is still considered canon. My point is that the offical stance on lightsaber color seems to be about as rigid as it is on pictures of Han Solo with no scar on his chin: it's close enough. If the green saber image is still unacceptable, though, I can try getting a similar picture without the saber, or I could desaturate the existing image to black-and-white. Thoughts? SM-716 05:44, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I see your point SM-716 but we can't go and make up canon just because the current precedent is very loose. If we put that in the article it is saying he had a green saber which isn't the official fact. I would desaturate the image (good idea!). That solves the problem.--DannyBoy7783 20:01, 11 March 2006 (UTC)
 * The thing I was getting at in my argument was that a green saber in a character's picture doesn't necessarily seem to imply that a his saber was canonically green, so pictures aren't always viewed as definitive canonical fact. Still, desaturating the image takes care of the problem either way. So here's where the nit-picky art school dork in me comes out: which image do people prefer, the fully-grayscale one, or the ALMOST grayscale one? I don't think you can tell what color the saber is supposed to be in either one, but I think the slightly-color one is a little more interesting to look at. I'm adding one to Jaden's info box. If anyone disapproves of this, by all means switch 'em or remove it completely or whatever. Exercise your Wikibilities. SM-716 03:14, 12 March 2006 (UTC)
 * We shouldn't imply his saber is green so I'd go with full desaturation for it. Imp removed your image though I noticed.--DannyBoy7783 05:47, 12 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I like the almost grey one better. Eyrezer 08:42, 12 March 2006 (UTC)
 * The saber still looks green to you in the second picture? Wow, you have INCREDIBLE chroma perception-- the world must look like an acid trip to you. Either that, or you have your monitor's color level cranked WAY up.... All kidding aside, though, I thought the saber in the second pic was pretty gray. I took extra care to actually make it grayer than the rest of the image. You can SERIOUSLY still tell it's green? SM-716 21:29, 12 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Perhaps it is because I know the original image is green and it isn't totally desaturated but yes, it does still look a little green to me. also, the jacket looks brown still as well.--DannyBoy7783 04:10, 13 March 2006 (UTC)
 * The jacket can be brown. As was pointed out, the brown jacket is independant of gender and speceis. Eyrezer 08:25, 13 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I never said the brown jacket was a problem. I was just letting him know I could tell it was brown.--DannyBoy7783 22:57, 16 March 2006 (UTC)

Canon
I'd like to know where it is specified that the canonical Jaden Korr is Light-side male, because if it is the ending "Light" who is canon, I'll be a little disappointed because: SPOILER

1.Jaden doesn't ressurect Marka Ragnos 2.Kyle quit the academy to find Jaden with the hope that there's still light in him. I think it is perfect for a sequel ! plus it is the first time that I prefer the bad end to the good end.
 * Check the BTS section : 'However, Jaden is referred to as a "his" in The New Essential Chronology, and is often portrayed in promotional art as a male human. Whether he has a canonical species or appearance is yet to be revealed.' Canon Jaden is male, wether you like it or not.--Petiflo 16:46, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

And in "The new essential chronology" it is also specified that the canon ending is Light side ?
 * I haven't read it. I don't know which source specifie this, but please man... Make you complains to LucasArts, not us. There's nothing we can do about canonicity. And please sig your comments. --Petiflo 19:34, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

Imagery, round two
Okay, I'm gonna try again here. The saber is now completely grayed, so as not to suggest one color over another. The image is also cropped a bit closer on Jaden, making it less about the scene and more about the main figure.

Since I haven't gotten a reply yet to my defense of the image on Imp's talk page, I'll lay out a quick breakdown of why I think the Jaden Korr article SHOULD have a profile pic. If anyone has any reasons why the image to the right should not be added to the info box, Now's the time to say so. But it's got MY vote, at least. SM-716 08:03, 16 March 2006 (UTC) "Just rediculous. Can't we just pick some saber color and species until a canon source confirms it? It's stupid to have a 'picture' of Jaden which doesn't even show his head." -MPK
 * It presents canonical information about his appearance. Jaden wields a lightsaber in a style reminiscent of Djem So-- fact. He wore that outfit when he infiltrated Echo Base in 14 ABY-- fact. He faced more than a few Snowtroopers along the way-- fact. This IS Jaden Korr, just like this is Luke Skywalker.
 * It does not suggest any non-canonical information. We are unable to determine Jaden's species from this picture, the color of his saber is unclear, and despite the generally agreed-upon notion that he is canonically male, it cannot be said with 100-percent certainty that the figure in this image is NOT a female in bulky winter clothing.
 * It represents Jaden's current ambiguity. A big part of what makes Jaden intriguing at the moment is the fact that he has no definite species yet. The fact that details such as face and hands are omitted in this image conveys the right sense of interest in the unknown. For contrast, the image over at the Jedi Exile's page kills the sense of intrigue in an otherwise mysterious character.
 * Images simply make an article more interesting to look at. 'Nuff said.
 * I like the pic and agree with your reasoning. I say put it up! Eyrezer 22:06, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
 * If Jaden's really canonically male, then the image is fine and I'll support using it as a profile pic. KEJ 22:22, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I was with you before and I'm still with you now. I vote for it!--DannyBoy7783 22:59, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Added it. Thanks for the feedback, all. SM-716 06:55, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
 * I LOVE this. One of my favorite images in the site. Very clever and the color was handled brilliantly. Great idea and good job, I was pleasantly surprised. --Master Starkeiller 12:42, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * If it were in color and cropped a little higher, you could see that Jaden is now blushing.... But I'm glad people like the picture. It was a fun challenge to do, and I'm pretty proud of how it turned out. I wish my PC weren't so old that it can't even run KOTOR II, otherwise I would do a similar image for the Jedi Exile. But hopefully I've inspired someone else to take a crack at it. SM-716 22:00, 19 March 2006 (UTC)
 * The image is non-canon. White lightsabers??? :) MoffRebus 09:52, 25 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Wow........it's grey-scale.--DannyBoy7783 17:12, 25 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Speaking of non-canon.... SM-716 23:40, 25 March 2006 (UTC)
 * It's a good pic and everything...but is there any point to it? We don't have images of character's backs on other pages, so why here? If there's no definitive image for Jaden, we don't put an image on the page - Kwenn 17:20, 25 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Jaden's a special case, so I think it's okay to have a "special image" (the closest thing we get is Revan, but at least Revan has his mask allowing us to use more conventional images of him) KEJ 17:38, 25 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Kwenn: the point was to provide as much definitive information about Jaden's appearance without revealing anything that has yet to be confirmed as canon. Regardless of his species, gender, or saber color, he looked like this on Hoth. Think of it in terms of Nanny from the Muppet Babies: you never needed to see her face to be able to recognize the character, particularly because an official likeness of her face never existed. The picture is as much as can be shown without revealing too much. SM-716 23:40, 25 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Just FYI, I'm pretty sure white lightsabers are canon. Sa Cuis used one. -LtNOWIS 18:17, 25 March 2006 (UTC)
 * About Jaden's species: If Jaden was any of the four species besides human, (in terms of practicality) why would he speak in Galactic Basic Standard in cut scenes where he is talking to himself (i.e. in short monologues)? anon 23:02, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
 * About Jaden's gender: I think there is now enough canonical foundation to stipulate Jaden's gender as male. I think female would have been a better choice though, considering the eminence of female characters in the Dark Forces saga in the past (Jan Ors, Mara Jade Skywalker, Tavion); perhaps Kyle Katarn works best when paired up with a female (in terms of storylines). A female Jaden makes more sense to me than a female Jedi Exile. Oh well, que sera, sera. anon 23:08, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
 * no MPK, like your comments on the exile you are wrong, it is not riduculus its the best way at showing the canon info we know without disrupting or assuming anythin. I wish you would stop slating other peoples work and make some positive comments for once...or at least constructive critisim not stupid etc. sign ur posts proberly as well..Jedi Dude 18:32, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

Chiss fan-made
Do we really need those fan-made modifications? They aren't official or canon. -Stake black 16:48, 13 April 2006 (UTC)
 * No fanon here, I'll get rid of them. Kuralyov 16:57, 13 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Thanks! -Stake black 17:41, 13 April 2006 (UTC)
 * It's not fanon pretending to be canon! It's an example of a very popular mod and the purpose of the images was to illustrate the text. Did you guys read the text at all? Note also that the images were placed in 'Behind the Scenes'.KEJ 12:15, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
 * It's not even that much of a popular mod, man. I think that if it isn't a Raven-made model/skin, then there is no reason to put on the article. -Stake black 15:54, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

His VOICE when Rodian
If the player chooses for him to be Rodian, how does he still have a human male voice? Have we ever heard of vocal implants in the SWG? Why would he want a vocal implant though? --68.102.193.78 14:46, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Yup, that's a bit of a blooper, innit? I know theer's a mod floating around on the internet in which Korr has a real Rodian voice. KEJ 09:07, 22 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Yes, there is that mod... However his voice still sounds humanly in cutscenes =P
 * What about the Kel Dor? Can they even speak Basic? I mean... right now we are almost certain that Jaden is male, but we state he could be human, rodian, or kel dor. Well, the rodians don't sound anything like male Jaden does (though Reelo Baruk shows us that they can speak basic), and nothing Jaden says sounds like it could come from beneath the helium mask Kel Dors have to wear. Is that enough to assume that Jaden's a boring male, light-sided human? If only Jaden were female... that voice could apply to human, twi'lek, or zabrak. But rodian, or kel dor? The guy has to be human. BaronGrackle 09:13, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

Why was the LS Ending canon?
I'm a little confused as to why they made the LS ending canon, when the DS ending is better for a two reasons:
 * 1) Marka Ragnos isn't made to look like a tool who gets his ghost-ass handed to him by a fledgling Jedi
 * 2) Kyle's quest to find and defeat his failed student would have been the perfect Jedi Knight III

It's not like Jaden couldn't still have appeared in the books or whenever later after having been redeemed. Sheesh. LucasFilm are so friggin weird. And why did they have to canonify him as male? It's not like there's any great demand to see Jaden appear fully in books, novels or comics. Referencing his name here and there would be enough.

If LucasFilm want every little choice you're given in a videogame to be canonized, then they should stop having LucasArts publish games that give you a friggin choice. I'm getting really tired of it. "Oh Revan's a light side male", "Oh, we're going to make the Exile a female", "Jaden's a male" etc etc etc.

Dear LucasFilm/Arts, If you don't like ambigious characters in the EU, then make every character set in stone from the getgo! RARGGH! Love, Ulicus.

Sorry for the rant.(Ulicus 21:19, 13 June 2006 (UTC))
 * Canon is canon and gameplay is gameplay. MoffRebus 21:47, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
 * I do agree with the two points that Ulicus listed at the beginning of his lovely rant. My problem isn't that the EU authors are specifying canon in customizable games; I just wish they wouldn't be so vanilla about it. Revan? Oh, he's a light side male. Jaden? He's a light side male human, of course (listen to that voice; it's NOT rodian or kel dor). From what I gathered, there's some sort of personal crusade going on to make the Jedi Exile a light side FEMALE instead of light side male, but that battle is far from won. The thing with Jaden's dark side ending, though, is that the Star Wars universe flows so nicely with it. The Republic isn't destroyed, a single Sith doesn't take absolute power, etc. Life goes on. It would be wonderful, someday, if an EU author decides to mention that Jaden killed Rosh and was later redeemed by Kyle. It's still possible, and things would be oh so much more interesting. -BaronGrackle 19:20, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Then I hope that someone retcons that Rosh wasn't killed and they healed him well. MoffRebus 22:38, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Hey, the retcon dance is mighty popular in a universe with so many sources of canon. Whatever works, right? :-) -BaronGrackle 03:51, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

Quote

 * Erm, can we find a better quote? Because that quote from Rosh Penin is just, well, crap. Jasca Ducato 18:25, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
 * I concur. Any suggestions? Maybe Kyle's quote from the end of the game... or a quote from Alora when Jaden stays to the light, or from Tavion even. I don't remember what all's out there. -BaronGrackle 18:27, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

I hope this is a better quote. Taken from a line Kyle tells Jaden at the end of the game. I made three different quotes. choose one. Xepeyon 16:53, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

Name
His name is officially "Jaden Korr". Stop changing it - Kwenn 18:29, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

"Officially" by who? You, or LucasArts? That is not official, I'm going to work hard to change it back to how the makers wrote it.
 * Check the sources listed on the article. They trump what the manual says. OFFICIALLY, according to Lucas Licensing, Wizards and LucasArts, it is JADEN KORR - Kwenn 18:35, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

Show Me. If I'm wrong, I have no problem admitting it. But then that would mean the entire game misspelled something they created. Hey, It's happened. But seriously, show me. If it's convincing, I promise I'll stop.
 * Check the sources listed at the bottom of the article. The Dark Forces page says "Korr"; the New Essential Chronology says "Korr". Two sources beat one - Kwenn 18:41, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
 * And I suggest you check the game itself. The opening crawl states "JADEN KORR" - Kwenn 18:42, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

The wizards has old quotes form wikipedia or wookiepedia. I've seen them before. If The New Essential Chronology says a NON-WIKI line, I'll stop unless another official site says otherwise. And My X-Box Shows ONE R, not 2.
 * No it doesn't. I have the XBox version. It says JADEN KORR. And the Wizards page does not use quotes from Wookieepedia. We have used quotes from there; it's an official source, as is the NEC - Kwenn 18:47, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

I'm not blind. Mine is showing ONE R, and I'm going by that one.
 * Are you sure that the manual didn't make a spelling error? -- SFH 18:52, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
 * The 3rd paragraph of the opening text crawl has "JADEN KORR" in big letters - Kwenn 18:53, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

How many times do I have to say it? My is showing ONE R. ONE, NOT TWO, or THREE, BUT ONE.

BTW, it's possible, but they wrote it that way twice. I found another "Korr" at lucasfiles.com anyways. Not sure if it's cannon, but it was linked from the official site. I still Beleive It's KOR, but I'll stop.
 * Mine is showing two. Why would you have a different version? Can anyone else check the spelling on their copy? - Kwenn 18:58, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

Mine has 2 R's. Maybe it depends on PAL and NSTC versions of the game. --FireV 18:59, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

My full version and the demo version both have the normal, KORR spelling. Tellur 19:00, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

PAL and NSTC??
 * UK or US/Japan - Kwenn 19:03, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

I'm in the US.


 * my uk version, both manual and in game say Jaden Korr. Jedi Dude 19:10, 26 July 2006 (UTC)


 * French version says Jaden Korr as well. Petiflo 19:17, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

 * and to be honest your CAPS is starting to irritate, theres really no need for any of it. Calm down, its not just convienent its not like were ganging up against you or anything its simple so far it appears your version may be incorrect compared to the


 * Okay, sorry. It just seems...to odd that I'm the only one with whose copy looks the way it does. Guess I've been spending too much time around k.m.f. Xepeyon 15:44, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

Just out of curiousity, could we have a scan-in from your manual? (Not the whole thing, just the part where it has Jaden's name) --FireV 22:10, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
 * For what it's worth, my PC game manual also says the single-r "Kor" in the credits section. The opening crawl, however, has "Korr". -BaronGrackle 08:55, 27 July 2006 (UTC)


 * I'll add a section at the bottom of the article incase someone has a copy like mine, and notices this like I did. Xepeyon 17:38, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

Renegade saber on Vjun
I see that someone has recently edited the article to clarify that, instead of Tavion using Jaden's saber to make the roof collapse, it was in fact Jaden who used his own saber to make the roof collapse. Are we sure about this? I don't have a game saved at the specific area, but I was thinking that Tavion engineered the escape while Kyle and Jaden had to struggle with the collapsed ceiling to make it out alive. I want to be certain before reverting it. -BaronGrackle 20:52, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Positive. We can see Jaden on his knees, raises his hand and his saber floats up to the ceiling, slices through it. A beam from the scepter can be seen destroying it and then Tavion and Rosh run. -- Redemption Talk [[Image:Oldrepublic.jpg|15px]] 20:55, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

picture/stats
Could someone change the picture? you know, picture of the main character with his back turned on the camera looks realy dumb :D Also I would change the unknown ibfo in the specie tab to, dunno..let´s say Varibable(Selectible by the player) What do you say? Hominid 21:48, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
 * The picture's like that so that it's ambiguous with the gender, species and lightsabre colour as none of these have been canonically decided yet. -- I need a name

Image canonicity
Don´t kill me, but it seems illogical to specify ony one choice from multiple opitions as canonical(such as canoniacly specifying e.g. Jaden as only male/or Famale) don´t you think? Becasuse that would essencially kill the caracter customising, if onle one on the options it ,,true", woulden´t it? (and putting dumb pictures beause of it) Sorry if I offended anybody,. It´s just my opinion. Hominid 20:29, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Jaden has been "confirmed" (though I don't think it's adequete evidence since "his" is a pretty vague term these days but that's beside the point) and thankfully, all of the male bodies are the same on Hoth so it's pretty much okay and completly staying within canon. -- Redemption Talk [[Image:Oldrepublic.jpg|15px]] 20:36, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
 * Wouldnt Jaden be the Brown haired, blue eyed one, as the game creators showed, not that I like him most out of the others, (which I do) but its because the game creators show him as that, like in the promational artwork, the back of the case for the game, and the other stuff, wouldnt that be him, the brown haired one.

Does anyone have a close idea to who the real Jaden is? And is that first Jaden pic really necessesary in the article

 * Wouldnt the cannonicle Jaden be the one that the creators showed with the double bladed orange lightsaber and brown hair in front of the rancor monster. and also, what is with that terrible Jaden picture in the begining of the article? it is really bad and wapred, cant someone make a better in there, maybe one with jaden standing, but so that you cant see his head? Not that I have a right to judge what is bad or good, but I mean it is warped and "stretched" and not even in front of Jaden but is at his ass and looking at his back, that seems bad to me.


 * No, that image is not canonicle unless stated as such by an official source. As for the one in the article, we are trying to avoid showing any features that would identify him as one specific species.-- Lord Oblivion Comlink[[Image:Oldsith.png|30px]] 00:11, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
 * And lightsabre colour and clothes. --  I need a name  ( Complain here ) [[Image:Sithempire2.png|20px]] 00:16, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
 * But what about the one I was talking about, the one at the bottom of the article with the Rancor, it shows him, the back of the case, it shows him, advertisements, they show him too, all as the same one jedi, but the only difference in all those is the lightsaber Jaden is using.
 * Advertisements for KotorII often included a male Exile.-- Lord Oblivion Comlink[[Image:Oldsith.png|30px]] 00:27, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
 * So therefore, he should be a male, but you people dont consider him a male, thats STUPID, no offense, but you should take the advertisements more seriously.
 * There's no consistent representation of Jaden. Install Jedi Academy on your computer (or uninstall and re-install). You'll notice in the installation screen that it uses several different possible Jaden's in the backgrounds, ranging from female Twi'leks to male Rodians with double-bladed lightsabres. Also, gameplay footage from adverts features different Jadens and Exiles. --  I need a name  ( Complain here ) [[Image:Sithempire2.png|20px]] 00:31, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
 * And we didn't decide the Exile was female. It was stated in an official source.-- Lord Oblivion Comlink[[Image:Oldsith.png|30px]] 01:12, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Yeah yeah, offcial source call it what youy want, I think the advertisements are good enough for me, maybe not for you, but for me it is, they are the truth because they show what the creators of the games intended the main characters to look like, and those rodians in this game, dont look much like the rodians Lucas created, they dont have HUGE HUGE, red eyes that are flat and take up the entire face.
 * If the creators of the games "intended" the characters to look like anything, then they wouldn't have given you the choice to make them how you want. -  Angel Blue [[Image:Jedi_Order.jpg|20px]](Holonet) 01:25, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Please end your pointless argument, anon.-- Lord Oblivion Comlink[[Image:Oldsith.png|30px]] 01:29, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
 * *sigh* This guy is just a troll trying to stir up some debate. Been doing it for the past week...-- Redemption Talk [[Image:Oldrepublic.jpg|15px]] 01:30, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
 * What I meant by it was that Jaden is not a female twi'lek, but a human male due to his voice, it makes no sense for a Kel Dor to speak perfect english with his breath mask, or a Rodian to speak perfect english with it's weird shaped mouth in a exact human voice, thats what I meant, Jaden is a human due to the voice in the game, I mean no argument, just disscusion.
 * And then once someone disagrees, it's back to vandalism, isn't it? Anyway, the voice is just game mechanics. Should just be ignored. -- Redemption Talk [[Image:Oldrepublic.jpg|15px]] 01:39, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Should be ignored? thats a little stupid, maybe we should ignore the fact that you go to Korriban and that Jaden even exist, I mean, its just the game mechanics.
 * There is a big difference between game plot and game mechanics. Mechanics are simply things that go with the overall gameplay and somethings are simply restricted by it, like the useage of multiple voices for male. The mechanics prevent it from splitting male into species. And also, notice that Reelo Baruk in JK1 speaks basic so, treat it like that. -- Redemption Talk [[Image:Oldrepublic.jpg|15px]] 20:10, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Also Reelo Baruk doesnt have a screwed up mouth, so treat it like that, because he is fat, his mouth is formed differently, allowing him to speak Galactic Basic, SO TREAT IT LIKE THAT. Game Mechanics my ass, I guess that you dont really fight dark jedi with a lightsaber, its just game mechanincs, its the players choice to use a lightsaber bla bla bla, its game mechanics my ass, you have no back up on the game mechanincs, Jaden is Human.
 * Since humans, Rodians, and Kel Dor can all speak basic (play Jedi Outcast and Jedi Power Battles if you don't believe me), one set of male dialogue works fine. Re-recording every spoken line in alien voices would have cost LucasArts more money, would have pushed back the release date, and would have eaten up a lot more space on your hard drive. So treat it like that. -- SM-716 [[Image:716chiss.gif]] talk? 06:44, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Im ending this now, anon stop trolling or you will be reported. And remember alot of things are game mechanics and such. Jedi Dude 13:59, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Jedi Power Battles is NOT cannonicle! so do not follow ANYTHING from it.
 * Whats Trolling? Is thhat answering a response, because Im allowed to do that, fool.
