These other light side organizations sound really interesting. They each figured out how to understand and use the light side in ways that worked for them. The fact that some of them didn't like how the Jedi did things or even that the Jedi took Force sensitive children to train. I didn't know that there so many different light side organizations besides the Jedi. I think it makes sense that the others don't have light sabers, or even know how to build them. Great video.

[@yugioht42]

The kel-dor sages actually went underground so they weren’t rediscovered until Luke restarted the Jedi order. Though Luke didn’t exactly ask any of them to join a few did join the new order on their own terms and serve with distinction in the Vong war and the second civil war. Luke never gave them actual membership just saying if you would like to join but on your own.

I've always wondered if there were more "expressions," of the Force. Like you had the witches of Dathomir, and the way *they* used the Force was different from the Sith, and yet they were both Dark Side users. And then you had the magic used in the Ewok movies(yes, I know they're not regarded as canon, but it would be interesting if that one element be canon), where the Ewok elder showed an image of the giant beast. So I had figured there must be different ways in which different groups used the Force. I'd love to see more of that.

[@steved2719]

There was another organization that used both the Jedi and Sith, they were the Jensaarai. More like the Grey Jedi in outlook. They hoped to achieve a balance while using the Force. They created imbued Armor instead of building a Lightsaber.

[@The_winds_of_change]

They also sided woth the sith as they saw the jedi as evil. They canonical assisted the empire during the rebellion as they saw the sith as a by product of the jedi hoarding knowledge

[@Underworlddream]

@@The_winds_of_change They tried to sideing with the Sith but the Sith saw them as no different then Jedi so they were attack leading them to go back into hiding. Anyway all this was because they got access to a Sith Artifact that was telling them warped and altered history of the Jedi and Sith to trick them to joining the Dark Side but it was destroyed before it could fully corrupted them so that why they have element of Sith teaching but are not Dark Siders.

[@xxxhero7275]

Wait a second.... why didn’t anybody ever make forcefields out of kyber crystals? All you’d have to do is hit someone with the shield and they’d die, I don’t remember the name of those robot things that rolled around but they should have used light saber crystal for the force fields and had it cover the entire body, they’d practically be unstoppable, you don’t even need them to shoot or anything just have them roll into its enemy’s......

[@xxxhero7275]

Just asking because armor made of kyber crystal sounds a lot more useful than the saber itself. You could literally just walk through things at that point

Examining their code you can see that had they kept various aspects of their order than the Jedi order wouldn't have been destroyed by Vader.

There is at least one (possibly two) groups of force users I'd be curious to know more about, but I don't know how much information is available at this time (since I think they're fairly new additions to SW cannon). I really like the Chiss navigators (introduced in the new Thrawn trilogy), and they appear to be either a light-side or neutral group that focuses one or two specific powers. The other is whatever was going on with the Lassat in Rebels. The method Zeb used to find the new homeworld really looked like force-use to me, but I don't know if that's discussed anywhere else.

They were major rivals with the brotherhood without banners, the people's temple, the talamascans, the greybeards, space Australia, and scientologists.

[@rookiedrifter4273]

There's the Matukai too. They're my personal favorite; they don't really use the Force extrinsically, instead channeling it through their bodies and doing things like enhancing their speed, strength, agility, stamina, even their immunity to poisons. They were basically whirlwinds of melee combat that never got tired, and the most experienced of them could actually physically harden their own bodies so it'd be like you're punching Colossus from the X-Men. They could superheat their hands too and melt shit that they touched. Best part was that, unlike Jedi, they viewed martial arts as a form of meditation, so they'd probably be inherently good at Form 7 if they ever picked up a lightsaber. Though, their giant twirling Force halberds are probably just as effective of a weapon, so I'm sure they're fine without them. Not to mention, it kind of makes them the perfect Light Side Force-Users to actually fight in a war and not fall to the Dark Side. They'd basically just enter a meditative battle trance every time they got into combat. If anything, it might even strengthen their connection to the Light Side.

[@daz8172]

It's really cool that the lore is so rich. I didn't know there were so many organisations.

[@Cloofinder]

According to the Zeffo force vision Kal had on Bogano, the sage in the vison said that they have gathered all that was left of the Zeffo people and fled into unknown space (dunno if they meant the unknown regions or just outside their own galaxy). So I wouldn't say that they have been extinct. Unless there is anything to back that up in canon content.

I think my own favorite us the Aang-tii Monks, though I guess they really are a true neutral ground, so I can kind of see why they didn't make it into this video. Their "flow-walkng" ability is neat, as is their strange aversion to directly handling certain objects; they use TK, or they I occaaional ally, to do so. This seemed to be one of the best, yet most problematic, powers Jacen Solo picked up, trying to reacquire his kwisatsz hadarak status, after the Vong War. Barring them, I was always a fan of the incredibly stealthy Faalanasi. However, I think one of my overall favorite powers, which isn't really associated with any one tradition, wad Anya Kuro's teleporting ability. When I was playing Star Wars Saga Edition RPG, my Padawan specifically had the Dark Woman as his Master, so I could have that ability. He later did also learn flow-walking, which allowed him to go back to the point where she died, and sag good bye to his master, before the Dark Womab was slain.

Other dark sided orders would join in and Luke and his Jedi order find other groups to ally with, like the Guardians of the Breath, Imperial Knights, Order of Revan, ect. and they all have their own beliefs and agenda and it's up to the new Jedi order to unite the warring factions to combat the growing threat.

Yaddle used to have (and technically still has canonically) an orange lightsaber, and the color meant true pacifism and self-sacrifice. Yaddle died embodying these traits when she saved Anakin from a bio-bomb, if I'm remembering correctly.

@@maxxor-overworldhero6730 Sorry to catch your comment late. However, thank you for digging that up for me. I never went deep into SW except all the movies and tv shows including Clonewars, Rebels, Mando. I did read a short paperback about a crew tracking a distress beacon. Turns out it was an abandoned DeathStar. They explored, scavenged and had a run in with the garbage chute monster. It could not have been canon because the DeathStar(s) were either under construction, fully populated or entirely destroyed. Made no sense. It must of been a George Lucus approved fan fiction. Full colored cover and back. Just curious, what color saber would you wield? And would you be light side Jedi, dark side Sith...or a mix of both and then go your own way out into the galaxy with your force sensitivity?

I've used white lightning once or twice before. It's definitely pretty powerful.

It's interesting how many different groups, both light and dark, claims to speak for the force. What if the force could speak for itself for once? Maybe through a possessed medium? It would be funny if the force would school all those followers and told them the are all wrong 😆
