Is Kreia even a Jedi?

[GhostofAnakin]

We assumed that Kreia is a Jedi, but is she really?

 

Take a look at some of the newer screenshots closely and you'll notice that Kreia is wielding a double-bladed vibroblade, NOT a lightsaber.

 

In a couple of the early screenshots, she was using a double-bladed lightsaber, but since then the screenshots show her with the double-bladed vibroblade.

 

Perhaps she's just some crazy old woman who thinks she has Force abilities, but in fact doesn't.

 

Food for thought.

She's going to take us to Atris, who will be the Jedi Master for the LS player.

[Chemix]

heh? take u to atris? jedi master? what?

 

from what I heard she was the jedi mentor for the player

[Sabahattin Dere]

this should make it a little clearer:

:D :D

[Astatine]

Nah... Kreia is doomed... The PC will become the master... Atris is the apprentice... :ph34r: :ph34r: :ph34r:

Ah. So the awesome old chick has a name? She looks cool; she seems like she may be a party regular, Jedi or not. So long as she's a nice old lady (well, nice to good guys, anyway; I wanna see her trash-talk the Sith) and not a bitter old bat, she seems to rule.

 

And Bastila used a double-ended vibroblade at one point too, remember? Anyway, maybe they decided to un-Jedi her, and instead make her a normal character. Very feasible, methinks.

[kumquatq3]

I thought it was made clear, more than once, that Kreia is NOT a full Jedi.

[Chemix]

still wasn't she said to be the mentor figure for the character. Sort of like Jolee, but offering guidence rather then constant indifference to subjects (IE Jolee didn't care what u were doing aslong as u weren't turning ur back on ur allies and trying to destroy the republic)

[Grand_Commander13]

That's entirely possible. I was hoping she'd be all mentorish (kinda like Bastila warning you against the darkside, but not in such an annoying way).

 

And when I said party regular, I meant person who will be in my party a lot.

 

Where are you getting all this info from? The ask the devs and weekend programmer threads?

[nightcleaver]

She's not technically a jedi, is what has been said. That doesn't mean she can't be your Force mentor, nor that she can't use a lightsaber. In fact, I remember mention of her having dialogues every now and then to confront you about certain decisions, along the lines of telepathy.

Did you say telepathy! That could be Kreia's special ablity since one of the devs said every party memeber will have a special ability in TSL.

[Sabahattin Dere]

Perhaps she is more of a 'guide', rather than a 'mentor'....

 

'Guiding' is indeed what she does with the telephatic ability at the beginning of the game.

[Meshugger]

Maybe she's just hiding her Jedi capabilities as much as possible in order to avoid getting the Sith's attention. It would fit to the story pretty well, considering how the Jedi are being hunted in TSL.

[nightcleaver]

Let me put it this way: She has Jedi abilities, just not a Jedi. See? A jedi is just a title; there are countless forms of force users out there, the only similarity is that they all use the force.

 

That's how I interpreted it, anyway.

^I like the idea of an incognito Jedi. And just because

for these particular screenshots they decided to equip Kreia

with a vibro-blade doesn't mean she's not a Jedi.

 

Maybe she was letting Atton Rand borrow her lightsaber so he

could have a night-light. B)

[ampulator00]

Maybe she's like Jolee. A former member of the Order, who only went up to rank of Padawan, but still kicks ass.

[Rubber Ducky]

Precisely what I was thinking. Remember one of Jolee's dialogues?

 

"From now on, I want you to consider me just another non-jedi. With a lightsaber. And Force powers."
