Talk:Jaden Korr

Yuuzhan Vong War? What?
Where did this whole "Jaden looks for his former master after the Yuuzhan Vong War" stuff come from?
 * Here. Specifically, the paragraph directly to the left of the screen cap of Kyle and Jan. -- SM-716 [[File:716chiss.gif]] talk? 20:02, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

Two Lightsabers?
"In addition, he was a practitioner of the Jar'Kai with his two lightsabers, his childhood one and his Jedi Knight one."

Where does Jaden canonically use two lightsabers? I don't remember any outside sources saying that Jaden carried two lightsabers. In the game, Jaden's lightsaber is lost and he has to build a new one. Then the player chooses whether he builds a double-bladed lightsaber, a single-bladed lightsaber, or two lightsabers. I don't remember any instance where he uses his original lightsaber in conjunction with another one.74.185.193.66 19:26, January 2, 2010 (UTC)


 * In Crosscurrent he is described as carrying both a new lightsaber and his childhood one although it's not explained how he re-acquired the latter one. He does not use them together in it though. Regards  So Why  15:18, February 2, 2010 (UTC)


 * But in Jedi Academy you see his lightsaber get hit with the energy from the Scepter and it explodes. so how did he reclaim it? jedi_master425
 * I think he built a replica of the old one. Jedi Striker 21:54, March 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * Check the source on the page, the author confirms that he went back to Vjun and reclaimed his old lightsaber, likely having to make some repairs. &mdash;fodigg  (talk) | 15:12, March 12, 2010 (UTC)


 * Aw man... I wonder what good-for-nothing Lucas employee gets the authorization to approve crappy fan fiction like Crosscurrent as canon... I'd like to get my hands on that hick-ass of a writer and wring his untalented little neck. Guess nowadays you can buy almost any copyright with money. Such a smear of a good universe, no matter how minor. Same as the rest of the whole damn legacy era, if you ask me. SimonKTemplar 08:11, May 21, 2010 (UTC)

how do we know he is male?

 * It says under his gender that he is male. Anyone know how we know that? Miniman 16:59, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
 * The New Essential Chronology refers to him as male, AFAIK. --  I need a name  ( Complain here ) 17:01, 2 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Hasn't the New Essential Cronology been out for a long time? If it refers to Jaden as Male than why did it take this long to get into the article? 65.27.139.162 10:58, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
 * It's been in the article ever since it was confirmed that he was male, some people just keep changing it. --Jedimca0(Do or Do Not, There is No Try) 11:43, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Yea, but it's nothing like the way people keep trying to change the Jedi Exile to male. That's still going on. Xepeyon You Speak, I've Spoken 05:56, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
 * You know, I'm pretty sure Jaden is canonically female. If you go to the cheat console, type "sex ", with a space after it, which is the variable that determines the voice, it shows the value. For example, if you are male,it will say, "sex" is "m", default "f". The game default is undoubtedly female. Try it yourself. Somebody, however, keeps deleting any edits that say so. Probably just one guy with nothing better to do can't stand the idea of Jaden being female, and won't even allow for the POSSIBILITY in the article. Let's see how long it is before he deltes this post. Less technically and more personally, I think the story works better if Jaden is female. Not only is Jennifer Hale a much better voice actor than Phil Tanzini, (all due respect to Phil) but it would appear that Jeff Benett and Jason Marsden recorded their voices with the understanding that Jaden was female. At least, that's what I and all my friends say, based on their tone of voice. Telling me that Jaden is male is basically saying that Rosh and Kyle are both gay. Puhleeze, people!
 * Sourcebooks trump game settings. It doesn't matter what the default is if another source outranks it. Revan could be default female, the Jedi Exile could be default male, doesn't change a thing: Jaden Korr is a dude, and thus everyone should be undoing your edits. That being said, I do agree that Jen did a much better job voicing her. But, sadly, that doesn't matter either. (by the way, in the future, please sing your posts with four "~'s") Din&#39;s Fire 997 08:02, 28 November 2008 (UTC)
 * (I got an account!) Well, I guess you're probably right about the sourcebook trumping the game settings. (Although, if you think about it, doesn't that seem a bit backwards that we're trusting a book to tell us about a game instead of the game itself?) I'd like to see that book myself. I'm kinda wondering if some people might be reading more than is actually there. It says right there in the article on the New Essential Chronology that it conflicts in some areas with established canon, so I guess you have to decide for yourself what to believe when that happens. I'll give you, though, that Jaden is probably male. (In the unlikely event that with the release of Crosscurrent Jaden's gender is established as female, I'm gonna have a good laugh JK And since you mentioned it, both Revan and the Exile's game default gender is male, not that that has anything to do with anything.) So, Din's Fire Guy, I noticed you were the one who undid my edit. All I said was that Jaden was a female Twi'lek in the Planet Hoppers probably because that's the game default. You can't say that isn't true. And, you shouldn't say that such is thing is very likely non-canonical, because that's an opinion, not a fact, and encyclopedia entries are supposed to be impersonal. ( So, the four "~'s" automatically put in the date and time?) Jedi! 05:30, 29 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Its not backwords, its the right way. Otherwise we can say that the Dark Side ending is possible. The NEC conflicts with canon? Alot of stuff conflicts with canon. Look at the new Clone Wars series.Zakor1138 05:49, 29 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Yeah, that's exactly what I'm saying. The Dark Side ending is possible. It's a video game! It doesn't really have anything to do with the movies. It's not like say, Sid Meier's Gettysburg where you know the real ending is that the Union wins. The game is open-ended, so it depends on the player. I'm not saying that there's no such thing as canon, but some people put too much importance on it. Jedi! 06:32, 29 November 2008 (UTC)
 * But this is a wiki about all things Star Wars, and canon is taken very seriously here. The Jedi Exile's page is a result of that. Zakor1138 00:58, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

Lightsaber?
Is there a source that specifically states that Jaden constructed his own lightsaber without any instruction? Having played the game, the backstory for Jaden's lightsaber seems to have been intentionally left out. It's possible he got it some other way. Israi 17:16, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
 * From Jedi Academy's opening crawl: "JADEN KORR, a promising student from Coruscant, is en route to the Academy after achieving the impossible: creating a lightsaber without any formal Jedi training...." That's the only time I remember it being mentioned. -- SM-716 [[File:716chiss.gif]] talk? 22:46, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
 * Interesting. I always skip the opening crawl.... --Israi 00:28, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Canon Appearance
I think that that File:Jaden-hm.jpg is his canon appearance. In the multiplayer loading screen, you can see him looking like that fighting a Twi'lek jedi, the concept art looks just like it, his voice sounds human, and it's on the game disc.--1upD 20:15, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
 * The thing is that Jedi Academy has all sorts of appearances for different Jadens on loading screens, concept art, and game disc/manual illustrations. Besides, isn't that illustration on the game disc a blonde guy? And I think there are other different versions on the other discs as well. -BaronGrackle 21:06, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Nowhere does it say that's Jaden on the multiplayer loading screen. --  I need a name  ( Complain here ) 14:10, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
 * No, but the guy there looks just like the Human Male concept art and the pic printed on the disk. We know he's a human male.--1upD 20:18, 30 April 2007 (UTC)
 * We are only certain that he is a male, not necessarily Human. Let us pray and hope he's related to Vani Korr.  Stake black   msg 14:03, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
 * We know he's human from the voice, and Vani Korr.--1upD 20:13, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
 * No we don't. --  I need a name  ( Complain here ) 20:30, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
 * The voice may indicate something, but for now, nothing can be assured.  Stake black   msg 21:45, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Well, when will we know? Other sources indicate Rodians and Kel Dor sound different than humans. He has a human voice. His official human appearance is probably the one on the disc on the loading screen and in the concept art. Can I at least put something in "behind the scenes"?--1upD 00:35, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
 * So? That doesn't mean Jaden couldn't have learned Basic. He was born in Coruscant, so it's quite possible. I think the Bts section has enough info on that subject.  Stake black   msg 16:30, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
 * *SIGH* Yes, but if he was a Rodian or Kel Dor, he would have a MAJOR accent. Their vocal chords are probably TOTALLY different than Humans.--1upD 20:33, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Hmmm...on the LOTF page here, it says Jaden will appear in Fury. Maybe we'll see his species then.
 * You might be correct, but that's not enough to define anything =/ And that can't really be taken as the truth, since we've never seen Rodians or Kel Dorians speaking Basic, so...  Stake black   msg 22:05, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Plo Koon speaks Basic in Galactic Battlegrounds: Clone Campaigns. It's pretty much the same as a human, except his voice goes through that metal mask thing first. --  I need a name  ( Complain here ) 22:17, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
 * And Reelo Baruk, a Rodian, speaks Basic. Yes, Rodians and Kel Dor have typically sounded slightly different than humans... but that could just mean that the game developers didn't want to invest the time, money, or disk space to record all of the male Jaden's dialogue two more times. His voice seems to hint at him being human, but until that's inarguably confirmed, it's speculation. -- SM-716 [[File:716chiss.gif]] talk? 19:43, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Jaden Korr's dialog also came in French and German. I do not hear a clamor for those accents to be the canon voice. Some things just cannot be known. Karohalva 19:47, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
 * well, yea. the other languages are so people who don't speak English can play the game without using a dictionary. 69.118.103.231 17:43, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

Kor or Korr 2 - Electric Boogaloo
Almost a year ago, there was a discussion about how some JA game manuals listed Jaden's last name as "Kor." The guy who brought it up had seemed to be the only one who had this error in his manual, so it would appear that the consensus came to be to make note of it on the page as being a typo with his booklet. Now, I have a made a brilliant discovery. In my manual, it almost always states Jaden's last name as "Korr," except in the "Credits" section. Under the "Voice Cast" subsection, Jaden's last name is "Kor," as the guy had alleged. It also makes other spelling errors, like spelling Bob Bergen as "Bob Bergin". It is my assumption that this Credits section was added late in production and was done sloppily to get it in in time. So, I have to ask all of the members of Wookieepedia to join hands and sing to look in their manuals in the "Voice Cast" section to see if you have it as well. --FireV 17:44, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Just checked it, mine says "Kor" in the credits section too. --Jedimca0 (Do or Do Not, There is No Try) 17:49, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Mine too. And as far as I can tell, it's "Korr" EVERYWHERE else. So should we remove the section of the article about the discrepancy? Seems kinda silly to have all that for one typo. -- SM-716 [[File:716chiss.gif]] talk? 18:58, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
 * I think we should. Seeing as it is just one of the smallest of typos, it probably doesn't need its own section. Maybe it can be sneaked into the BTS section, if at all. --FireV 20:31, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
 * Done. It's gone. -- SM-716 [[File:716chiss.gif]] talk? 20:59, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

Dark Jedi Jaden Korr
Page??? Not really, offer alternate beginnings.
 * Kind of dumb that they offered alternate endings but choose one as cannon.
 * They kind of have to, if they want to make future games. jSarek 02:14, 19 August 2007 (UTC)
 * That might work for a following game, like at the beginning of KotOR II where you have your choice of Revan's alignment and gender from KotOR, however it would get too confusing when it gets referenced later. -- Reignfire (Holotranceiver) 04:54, 19 August 2007 (UTC)
 * it also allows for people to see how the game fits canonicaly without having to play the game also it allows players to choose how they want to play the game but still fits in with the rest of the star wars universe.

Fury appearance
The article mentions very briefly Jaden's participation in the Battle of Centerpoint Station. Can anyone with a copy of Fury tell me if there is anything more with relevance that could be added to the article?  Stake black   msg 01:01, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
 * There was nothing more than him being mentioned with other Jedi who were getting ready for the battle. Can't find the book to give you an exact quote though, sorry. Nighthawk Leader 04:42, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
 * I see. If his gender is also implyied in the novel, it would be great to know. Thanks.  Stake black   msg 01:21, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Nope sorry. All it says is in a section with Kyp looking around the shuttle Broadside, he saw "Jedi such as Valin Horn and Jaden Korr among them, anonymous behind their visors." Nighthawk Leader 02:53, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
 * Aw, I see. Thanks for the info ^^  Stake black   msg 18:20, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

"'He was still active in the Order as of 40 ABY. He assisted Jedi Master Kyp Durron, Valin Horn, Dr. Seyah, and several other Jedi on a mission to destroy Centerpoint Station during the Confederation-Galactic Alliance War. At this time, Jaden was still a Jedi Knight.'"
 * Where is this from? I know that he makes an appearance in the novel, and this is correctly cited in the article, but nowhere in the book does it specify his rank! As Nighthawk leader already posted, the only thing the book does says about him is that he was simply a Jedi among the strike team headed toward Centerpoint Station. You cannot read into something that isn't there. For all we know he may very well be a Jedi Master by this time. I'm not going to say he was, because we don't know. But evidence would point to its plausibility. One such example: the fact that he began (and completed) his training in 14 ABY, three years before Master Sebatyne's own master began hers (in 17 ABY).--Master Dakari 03:52, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

What page is he mentioned on in Fury?????

Hey, Rash could have been a girl, and u put male.. i demand change

Infobox image
I've been gone awhile, so please correct me if my information isn't up to date. But while it is known that Jaden is a male (given the choice of pronoun used to describe him in The New Essential Chronology), we're still unsure of his species. And that's the problem with the current infobox File:He has obviously human hands.

I don't mean this to come across as a whiny bid to get the old picture restored... but the hands were purposefully obscured in the last one. If there are no objections, I'd like to replace the current image with that old black-and-white picture of Jaden's back that everybody hated. -- SM-716 talk? 23:20, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
 * The previous image was indeed much better. This one hasn't the "epic" feeling that was in the other, in my opinion, a big loss for a jedi main picture. Kaal 13:18, 2 February 2008 (UTC)


 * I'm going to remove the image from the infobox because, to put it simply, its has no use being there. All we know about Korr is that he was a male, which is already clearly stated in the infobox in the gender field, so having a picture of a torse is totally pointless and a waste of space. No-one wants to know what a Hoth warm suit look likes, if they did, they would look it up under an apparel article or something.


 * There is no reason that thisarticle needs such astupid main image. It will be just as informative without the distraction. And I hope no-one ocomes back with "it's better than nothing", because it is nothing, so it's not better than anything. So, once again, it's gone.  Jasca Ducato Sith Council 22:31, 3 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Please refrain from removing information (that is, the infobox image) from the article. Thanks. --Imperialles 22:37, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

 * Jasca, rather than unilaterally removing something you think is stupid, why don't you just fix it? I'm sure you could find a better image if you tried. It worked well enough for the Jedi Exile article. -- AdmirableAckbar (Talk) 22:42, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Ah, that was my bad, SM-716. I didn't know about the different hand models for the Hoth jumpsuit - I thought they were just the same gloved models. A quick check revealed I was wrong. In that, a revert back to the old image would probably be best, unless a frontal view could be snapped where the hands could be cropped out without a problem.

Hey Jaden! Hang on, the camera is a bit messed up.
Just wanted to know: What happened to the colourless image with Jaden holding a lightsaber vs snowtroopers?

May I see some response or action, please? Mathos Rin 11:07, 27 April 2008 (UTC)

LS/DS Ending
As far as I know, no source has actually confirmed a Light Side ending for Jedi Academy. All we know is that Jaden is Light Side as of the events of the Yuuzhan Vong War, years after the events of Jedi Academy. Considering that a Dark Side Jaden would be far from the first NJO member to commit atrocities and be redeemed to the Light, and that the Dark Side ending *explicitly references this possibility* (Luke telling Kyle "There is still good in him...", we have no reason to say that the LS ending is canon, as opposed to Jaden killing Rosh, stealing the Scepter and eventually being stopped by Kyle.

Unless we have a source specifically saying that Rosh Penin lives to become a Jedi, that Jaden heroically defeated Tavion and the ghost of Marka Ragnos, that Jaden never turned to the Dark Side, or flat-out "The Light Side ending of Jedi Academy is canon", this should be marked as uncertain and the DS ending should be given equal canonicity as the LS one. The sources given in this article certainly say nothing of the kind; I'm changing this unless anyone has any objections.

DarthUr 11:23, 8 October 2008 (UTC)


 * I want to agree with you. I really, really want to agree with you. But I can't. The New Essential Chronology states: "Jaden Korr's heroics brought an end to the [Disciples of Ragnos] crisis, as well as pride to his teacher." and the Essential Guide to the Force states:  "The spirit of Sith Lord Marka Ragnos inspires a Sith cult, but is defeated by Jedi trainee Jaden Korr, a student of Kyle Katarn."  and most importantly,  "Tavion resurrected and was quickly possessed by Ragnos's spirit, but Jaden Korr defeated them and brought an end to the cult." So yeah. The light side ending is totally canon. Heck, when I went to look up those sources, even I didn't think there'd be that much evidense, but sadly, there is.

Paul S. Kemp to write Jaden Korr SW novel
It has been approved by Lucasarts et al. But according to Paul's website, he has gotten the go ahead to write a novel with Jaden as his lead character.

If you are unfamiliar with Kemp, he writes in the Forgotten Realms universe and is quite talented. Every bit as good as RA Salvatore. Anyway, I just thought you lot would like to know.

 * It's my understanding that with the exception of George Lucas (and to a smaller extent, Leland Chee), statements given by an author or other creator outside of the publication itself is not included within the SW canon hierarchy, and therefore should not be included in the in-universe section of an article. While I have no doubt that Mr. Kemp plans to make Jaden a human in Crosscurrent, at most we should keep that information in the BTS until it appears in a preview, Crosscurrent itself, or another licensed source, after which we can incorporate it in the in-universe section. --Muuuuuurgh 02:30, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Since we now know (until official release of the novel) that Jaden is a human male, I've done this pic (using Raven Software's model viewer), representing three of the possible appearances. Maybe it could fit in the article, I don't know. Anyway, here it is. -- Kaal 13:43, 7 January 2009 (UTC)

 * 1) Some claim to have witnessed him using others during his career. Any sources to confirm that?

 * 3) Kyle Katarn, who also displays similar feats and believes that no force skill is inherently good or bad, its how you use it. Should be in past tense, and could use a rewrite, it doesn't need to look exactly with what he said in the game.  Stake black   msg 11:38, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

ok and so why didnt you edit my version wrather then reverting back to that old trash version and then try to doctor that up? You listed the few things that were "wrong" and then didnt bother to edit out those few things? It still reads as a huge run on sentance. What the fuck ever--Jlryan 15:13, 14 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Well, I'm open to suggestions, but I didn't think your edit made it less of a run-on sentence.  Stake black   msg 11:47, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

Well it did. I deleted a ton of crap and put the huge section listing all the possible force powers in one line and all o fhis duels in one line. Sorry I didnt realise my edits were subject to your direct approval oh grand gate keeper. Likie I said WTF everJlryan 12:53, 15 May 2009 (UTC)
 * We all have the same goal here, guys. Here are a few issues I have with the section's current edit:


 * 1) By the time he had reached Knighthood, Jaden could even sense Humanoid life fatigue and dodged a sniper shot from behind. This is describing the effects of Force Sense, yes? Let's take it out. That kind of information belongs in the Force Sense article, as it applies to any character with a Knight level of Force Sense.
 * 2) But perhaps the most incredible of his abilities, was his capacity for mastering both light and dark-side oriented Force powers, including Force Absorb and even the ancient dark side power Force Drain. We don't know that Jaden learned these. Let's add them with the other powers, changing the paragraph to something like: "But perhaps the most incredible of his abilities was his capacity for mastering both light and dark side oriented Force powers. This can be in part attributed to the teachings of his master, Kyle Katarn, who also displayed similar feats. Throughout his lifetime, Jaden may have learned Force powers ranging from Force Protection, Force Healing, Mind Trick, and Force Absorb to Force Drain, Dark Rage, Force Choke, and Force Lightning." -BaronGrackle 20:09, 15 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Looks nice.  Stake black   msg 03:19, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

 * I've edited it, anything else should be changed?  Stake black   msg 11:36, 29 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Just wondering, shouldn't there be something about Jaden's facility with explosives? He is called upon on several missions to disarm bombs, so I was thinking it might be something someone could add. 74.185.193.66 02:28, January 2, 2010 (UTC)

Action VI transport


In this article it says that Jaden used a Praxeum owned Action VI transport, but in the game, the ship looks nothing like this transport. Is there a source affirming that it really is an Action VI?  Stake black   msg 14:42, 29 May 2009 (UTC)
 * I edited the article. Someone misunderstood.  The Action VI Transport was the one that Jaden crashed next to when investigating Blenjeel.  He used parts from that Action VI to repair his own ship, which I don't believe has its own page but appears at least twice in the game (once in the intro and again in the Mission to Blenjeel. Taral, Dark Lord of the Sith 17:14, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
 * The ship on Yavin IV is the same as the one in Blenjeel, and it's not an Action IV Transport, I think.  Stake black   msg 23:21, 26 June 2009 (UTC)

Jaden Korr's secondary weapons.
Korr had costructed a lightsaber with no Force aid, but, maybe taking after Master Katarn, did use and rely on other weapons. This was apparent after the encounter with Rax Joris, but Jaden particularly favored one blaster. This was his trusty DL-44, which he kept concealed on his person at all times. Korr used many other weapons, including a Stouker conc rifle, Imperial Heavy Repeater, and others.

Jaden's Secondary Weapons
Jaden Korr relied on other weapons apart from his lightsaber. He may have took after Kyle Katarn to do this. The most noted was his DL-44 heavy blaster pistol, which he usually concealed somewhere easily accessible.

Crosscurrent Cover

 * Jaden is on the cover. Human Male. Thank god they didn't choose one of the faces from the game. He's white, shoulder length brunette hair greased back into a ponytail. Will someone use the cover to finally make a decent main picture for the article? --Black Jack Scarron 22:48, 16 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Actually, that is an old republic jedi, not jaden.Meesa yoda 22:50, 16 August 2009 (UTC)

Abyss (novel) appearance
Jaden Korr guards the a door to the jedi council from Han and Leia in Abyss (novel). It portrays Korr as a male. Is this even worth mention? // fodigg 16:36, 24 August 2009 (UTC)

I believe not, because he was already established as a human male. --Revan, Prodigal Knight 19:13, 29 August 2009 (UTC)


 * so... this is how Jaden looks like? everyone okay with it? the uploader of thie picture says "This is Jaden Korr. TROY DENNING HAS SPOKEN. Abyss, page 126, bitches." i don't have Abyss so i'm not sure. (i did not upload this image.) –MuanN 11:51, 30 August 2009 (UTC)

Abyss only says that Jaden is a tall male with brown hair and dark eyes. I don't think the picture is an offical one, just a representation of what he looks like, but I'm not totally sure because I didn't upload it or anything.--Red haired jedi 17:43, 30 August 2009 (UTC) Well this is nice, finally we can put a face in his article --Revan, Prodigal Knight 10:01, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Troy Denning calls him a brown-haired male. Process of elimination rules out every other depiction. In one sentence, Denning wiped out years of ambiguity. Probably by accident, based on what Sue Rostoni has said, but there it is. -- Darth Culator  (Talk) 17:49, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Are we sure he's not dark-skinned? Because the current image looks like he's got red hair.--Jedi Kasra (talk) 16:53, September 10, 2009 (UTC)

If I recall correctly, Abyss indirectly states that Jaden's lightsaber was single-bladed, as well (though I'm not sure it said anything about the color). I think the statement was made when Jaden attempts to help the heroes apprehend Bazel Warv; It mentions that he switched to a backhand grip on his saber so he could strike with the weapon's hilt easier. -MPK 23:05, September 15, 2009 (UTC)

MPK, could you make a quote from this, please?--Revan, Prodigal Knight 03:24, September 17, 2009 (UTC)


 * Page 226: "Han pointed his blaster pistol at the Ramoan's back, and Jaden and Avinoam flipped their lightsabers around so they could use the hilts like clubs." To me, this implies that his lightsaber is single-bladed. Anyone else have thoughts? Also, are we still going to have all screenshots of Korr only show him in his Hoth gear? -MPK 22:23, September 18, 2009 (UTC)


 * When it comes to lightsabers, whatever he's using in Abyss needn't necessarily be the same as he used during the game. He could've changed preference in the intervening 30 years. Nick Fel 15:30, September 24, 2009 (UTC)


 * Although I'd like to have as much closure on Jaden's character as possible, that statement is not necessarily concrete enough to assume it's a single blade (could be a DB with one end deactivated - who knows). I agree the single-blade is indeed implied, but I think we should probably wait on it. --Xepeyon You Speak, I've Spoken 04:53, September 25, 2009 (UTC)

Uh, if Jaden Korr was described as having dark or brown hair with dark/brown eyes, then that picture is not representative. The dark-skinned Jaden would better fit the profile with his dark hair, eyes, and skin. I guess this won't be cleared up until Crosscurrent is released, but that picture is misleading. Unless, however, Jaden was not referred to as having dark eyes. I haven't read Abyss, so I wouldn't possibly know. Just saying.97.90.19.187 00:42, October 1, 2009 (UTC)


 * Crosscurrent repeatedly mentions Jaden's "gray eyes", so the given picture is the most accurate. &mdash;fodigg  (talk) | 19:40, February 22, 2010 (UTC)

Jaden being described as having dark/brown hair was what led to the claim that the earlier picture was his canon face? Jaden. Seriously? Isn't that jumping the gun? Why are we to assume that one of the in game portraits must be canon anyway? Also since he was apparently described as having dark or grey eyes the image which depicts him with sky blue eyes clearly contradicts that. Andreou 15:32, August 19, 2010 (UTC)

Taspir/Light Ending: Alora?!
In chapter Biography/Jedi Knight it says: "[…] Alora was eventually left dangling for dear life over a ledge. Jaden offered to help her and take her back to the academy for help, but Alora lost her grip and her life. […]"

- Someone

I do like the idea of Jaden offering to save Alora, but I always end up hacking her to pieces (In the Light ending, too). So the question is if this information is actually correct. 91.23.87.90 12:10, 25 August 2009 (UTC) Kg. Madee II.

In the beginning of the level Taspir III(second part) Jaden talks with Alora about this. --Revan, Prodigal Knight 19:04, 29 August 2009 (UTC)

Jedi Master ??
After 29 years of service in the Order( 14 ABY - 43 ABY ) and two wars, Jaden is always a knight? Maxattac 13:50, October 2, 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes, until a source comes out that makes him a Master. As of Abyss, he is definitely still a Knight. - Cavalier One FarStar Logo.jpg( Squadron channel ) 13:53, October 2, 2009 (UTC)

It's impossible, the authors have forgotten the date of his entry into the New Jedi Order. If he had 20 years old in Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy, he is 49 years old in Abyss. Maxattac 14:08, October 2, 2009 (UTC)
 * It's not impossible. No canon source to date has stated that he is a Master, therefore he is not one. - Cavalier One FarStar Logo.jpg( Squadron channel )

Jaina and her peers have been in the order much longer and they aren't Masters. The new order doesn't seem to be quite so free and easy with the rank. Nick Fel 16:00, October 2, 2009 (UTC)
 * How have Jaina and her peers been in the New Jedi Order longer than Jaden? Jaden joined up when he was older, certainly, but he's been a Jedi Knight from 14 ABY to 43 ABY = 29 years.  Jaina only became a Knight in about 27 or 28 ABY (15-16 years) and was an apprentice since 23 BBY (20-21 years).  Perhaps the Force isn't as strong in him as it is in Jaina or Lowie or whoever else, but Jaden did defeat the Disciples of Ragnos and has been a strong Knight for almost 30 years. Taral, Dark Lord of the Sith  -Just shy, not antisocial: You can talk to me!- 17:46, November 10, 2009 (UTC)
 * Uh, yeah. Somebody clearly lost track of when Jedi Academy was set or something. Nick Fel 18:02, November 10, 2009 (UTC)


 * Maybe this will be explained in Crosscurrent --Revan, Prodigal Knight 01:17, November 15, 2009 (UTC)


 * The number of years you serve the order doesn't decide your rank. There are plenty of old aged jedi knights that never achieve the rank of master. You either achieve the rank by doing something special or by training a padawan to the level of knight hood. And he himself personally may not feel that he is ready to be a master. jedi_master425

Age
does anyone know how old jaden is exactly?
 * Khedryn eyeballs him to be in his forties in Crosscurrent, but that doesn't take into account Force-slowed aging. Dangerdan97 00:27, February 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * I see him in his fifties in Crosscurrent, but the authors of both Crosscurrent and Abyss (novel) don't even want to give a small hint as to Jaden's age. They think it will hurt the reader's imagination. I would've added a hint as to Jaden's age if I were in the authors' shoes. Wouldn't you? Obi-Wan Kenobody  [[Image:Era-njo.png|20px]](Cone of Silence) 20:10, July 31, 2010 (UTC)
 * I believe that Jaden Korr is at least 49 years old tops. He would be 45 at the least. What say you peoples? Obi-Wan Kenobody  [[Image:Era-njo.png|20px]](Cone of Silence) 20:11, February 4, 2011 (UTC)

Crosscurrent events not listed
Why haven't you put the events of crosscurrent on jaden korr's page??? I mean are they canonical, because if they are I think they should be put.Ultimate card maker 23:31, January 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * Relax. The book was just released two days ago. Someone will update it eventually. Wookieepedia is run entirely by volunteers, so sometimes it takes a while for someone to find the free time to do the update. As for me, I don't have the book, so I can't do anything. And yes, Crosscurrent is canonical. By the way, if you have the book, be bold and update it yourself, but make sure to read through the links in the welcome message on your talk page first so that you know how to format it. &mdash;Master Jonathan(Jedi Council Chambers) 23:36, January 28, 2010 (UTC)

Crosscurrent continuity error (maybe)
I've read that in Crosscurrent that Jaden still has the lightsaber he built on Coruscant. Obviously this contradicts the events of "Jedi Academy" so what should be written about it?


 * Not really. If I remember JA correctly, he just lost it, it was not destroyed, was it? So Crosscurrent just does not explain how he re-acquired it. Regards  So Why  15:24, February 2, 2010 (UTC)


 * Nope, Tavion blew it up with the Scepter of Ragnos.--Xepeyon You Speak, I've Spoken 20:19, February 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * Maybe he reconstructed it? It obviously had a lot of sentimental value for him. Dangerdan97 22:12, February 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * but in JA Luke said " You're going to need to build a new lightsaber to replace the one you lost."
 * Tavion didn't blew it up. Jaden lost his lightsaber on the explosion. 85.241.106.243 19:25, February 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * Sorry, but that's incorrect. The explosion you're speaking of (I assume, as in the event being discussed, there was only one explosion) was Jaden's lightsaber blowing up. Tavion telekinetically used Jaden's saber to cause the ceiling to collapse, then fired a beam from Ragnos' Scepter to destroy the lightsaber. Unless it's rectoned that at some point Jaden found the remains of his first lightsaber and rebuilt it (which it probably will be), it is indeed a continuity error. --Xepeyon You Speak, I've Spoken 00:37, February 14, 2010 (UTC)


 * The author clarified that Jaden recovered the saber from Vjun at some unspecified time. I have added the ref to the article. See here for details. &mdash;fodigg  (talk) | 19:42, February 22, 2010 (UTC)

Quest for Certainty
It says that Jaden didn't find the answer he was looking for, but I think it's clear that he did find his answer. Instead of alleviating his doubt, he realizes that he needs to embrace his doubt, as that is the kind of Jedi he is. That's pretty much the answer to his question, thoughts? SilverBlade 16:57, February 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * Unless Jaden himself comes to that conclusion and voices it to the reader, it's supposition on our part. I agree though, for what it's worth. &mdash;fodigg  (talk) | 19:44, February 22, 2010 (UTC)

Missing Fingers
So I'm guessing that since he lost three fingers that he got them replaced before Abyss? jedi_master425
 * When did he lose digits? &mdash;fodigg  (talk) | 19:43, February 22, 2010 (UTC) I guess in the next chapter. Good question!  &mdash;fodigg  (talk) | 20:08, February 22, 2010 (UTC)

Character customization: Human Male image
The current image for the gallery is Jaden's canonical appearance. As this is a behind-the-scenes section meant to show player options (and since we already have his canonical appearance as the main image), can we replace this image with the dark-skinned human male or blonde human male images? I think it would be better to show non-canon variety in the behind-the-scenes section. &mdash;fodigg (talk) | 19:48, February 22, 2010 (UTC)
 * So far the evidence that I've seen that "proves" what is Jaden's canonical appearance is flimsy at best. Apparently brown hair is enough to jump to the conclusion that his existing profile picture is canon. Nevermind that there is no mention of skin color or the fact that his eye color actually contradicts previous descriptions Andreou 15:44, August 19, 2010 (UTC)
 * Flimsy? It's the only one that matches his physical descriptions in the books. &mdash;fodigg  BlackRebelStarbird.png (talk) | 17:35, December 22, 2010 (UTC)

Lightsaber colors
How do we know that his first lightsaber was purple and his second was green did a source come out and say they were? jedi_master425
 * It's in Crosscurrent. Nick Fel 15:53, March 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * Does this mean that screenshots that aren't in black-and-white can be used to show Jaden with his lightsaber now, or are we not allowed to make assumptions of which outfit from JKA he wore during the game's events? -204.42.31.251 20:51, March 25, 2010 (UTC)

Relationship with clones in Crosscurrent
I think it would be worth noting that Jaden found he had some things in common with the clones, like building his own lightaber and having some sort of telepathic connection with them. I am not saying Jaden is a clone and it certainly can't be put in an encyclopedic article because it would be speculation at this point, but the parallel of rare abilities is clearly stated in Crosscurrent. If it's appropriate to note that his lightsaber style resembles Kyle's, it's appropriate to note this as well.--216.45.228.131 22:16, March 25, 2010 (UTC)nameless one

Taspir III raven claw/ farwanderer
didnt jaden and kyle arive on taspir in the ravens claw. shouldnt it be noted that kyle went back to the academy with rosh and jaden went right to korriban. how the heck could he get to korriban in his z 95 if he went to taspir in the ravens claw!!!--76.216.249.175 14:06, March 29, 2010 (UTC)

Jaden Korr's duel with Kam Solusar's clone Alpha
When Jaden lost three fingers from his right hand, he obviously would have been forced to duel left handed with his first lightsaber. That would mean Jaden would have learned Jar'Kai during his Jedi career. Otherwise, Jaden would have been outrightly defeated. Anyone agree with me? Obi-Wan Kenobody   (Cone of Silence) 08:25, July 25, 2010 (UTC)
 * Heck no. That's a lotta supposition. We would need a confirming statement for something like that. &mdash;fodigg  BlackRebelStarbird.png (talk) | 17:34, December 22, 2010 (UTC)

Jaden Korr will be returning in Paul S. Kemp's new Star Wars novel "Riptide".

Jedi Master potential for the Senior Jedi Knight Jaden Korr
As Qui-Gon Jinn once said, "I forsee you become a great Jedi Knight.", in which case I, Obi-Wan Kenobody forsee that, once Marr Idi-Shael makes it to the rank of Jedi Knight, then Jaden will be rewarded the rank of Jedi Master for the 29+ years of service plus Marr's Knighthood. Now, fellow Wookieepedians, do you agree with me that Jaden deserves such an honor if he worked hard with Marr? Obi-Wan Kenobody (Cone of Silence) 10:34, September 30, 2010 (UTC)

Quote: "He was also able to hold his own against famed bounty hunter Boba Fett (who was an experienced Jedi killer)."

Yellow lightsaber?
So it seems that he has a yellow lightsaber on the coverart of Riptide, but there is no mention of it in the article?
