Jedi Master Aar'be Simara would have been considered a Gray Jedi by the Jedi of the Old Republic, just as his master, Zahn, was. While a master of the Jedi arts, he did not hold to all the tenets of the Jedi code. He did not believe anger & hatred to be definitively of the dark side. His belief was, "If it does not drive you to act out of vengeance, it is not wrong to hate evil, injustice, or cruelty." He also employed force powers the Jedi code forbid as being dark, such as Force lightning & Force choke; using these powers to incapacitate an opponent, not kill them.



He weilded a green-bladed lightsaber of unique design. The upper housing was made of transparent material through which the blade energy could be seen before exiting the hilt through the emitter.

Personal Info
My real name is Aaron. I'm 31 and live in Washington State with my wife and resident demon, who masquerades as a cat. I have been a Star Wars fan since my dad took me to see Star Wars as a kid. I would always watch ANH, ESB and ROTJ on laserdisk at least a couple times a year growing up (so much that I have all three movies virtually memorized line by line).

I fell in love with the Star Wars universe all over again when Timothy Zahn wrote the Thrawn Trilogy. I have read and own practically every novel written since then.

I have been fortunate enough to have three of my submissions chosen for the (semi-) weekly Photo Caption Contest at starwars.com. My most recent "win" was chosen as one of the Best of 2006. My other two entries are here and here. All were submitted under the name "JediMasterAramis."
