Ki Adi Mundi over Fisto this is outragous

[@rowanpierce9508]

Thats a good list

[@juicebox9465]

Depa fought grievous twice, and managed to walk away with her life. She also trained and sacrificed her life for her padawan, who would manage to evade the empire for decades in part because of her mentoring. She was very humble and strongly believed that Jedi did not belong on the battlefield, and was one of the youngest Jedi in history to get a seat on the high council. She at least deserves 11 or higher.

[@cerebli]

Shaak Ti's face is always "I just wanna go home"

[@TJthetroodon]

I always believed Coleman Kcaj replaced Even Piell and not Oppo Rancisis, because both Kcaj and Rancisis appear together in the council in season 6 of The Clone Wars. Also why would the Jedi wait almost a year to replace Piell's seat?

[@Compucles]

Adding on to that, are we sure Anakin's appointment was a replacement? From the way Palpatine described the appointment, I had always assumed Anakin was an extra 13th member of the Council. Then again, they did have a seat already ready for Anakin in the Council Chambers, so I could very easily be wrong.

[@kimberlyborrelli1993]

That's because Even Piell died in the clone wars series when Anakin obi wan and ahsoka with clones tried to bust him out of a jail he got mauled to death by some type of creature don't know the name looks like a wolf and dog mixed together

[@Iceskyguy]

I'm torn between Yoda, Obi-Wan, Plo Koon and Kit Fisto as my favorite council members because I just think all four are awesome characters in unique ways but I would agree with a notion Qui-Gon lived by: that the Jedi Council was wise but not infallible or perfect by any means.

[@AaronPharaoh]

Question for the Q&A. Do Jedi Knights usually get Padawans, or is it only Masters who receive Padawans? Exceptions being Obi-Wan taking on Anakin and Anakin with Ahsoka.

[@Samlalo170]

as far as I know from legends material (still canon maybe) Jedi Knights do recieve Padawans. If their Padawans get the Knight title, then de Jedi Knights get the Master title... that´s why Anakin never get the rank of master, Ahsoka left the order before the trials... so that made Anakin to take a sit.

[@anderskjrjrgensen8152]

If I'm not mistaken, the most common way of becoming a jedi master was to train a padawan, so yes knights would usually get Padawans, but masters would aswell. Many masters (and probably also some knight) trained multiple padawans. i would think Obi-Wan taking Anakin as a padawan immediately after becoming a knight would be uncommon

[@AaronPharaoh]

@@anderskjrjrgensen8152 that's what I thought, but I can't recall actually seeing anyone who wasn't already a master training a padawan except for Obi-Wan and later Anakin. I guess I'm just looking for another specific cannon example.

[@anderskjrjrgensen8152]

Neither can I, except if you want to count Ezra/Kanan from Star Wars Rebels, but that is definitely not under normal circumstances.

[@jeeshadow1]

@@AaronPharaoh Not confirmed but MAYBE Kit Fisto when he first took his padawan that Grevious killed? Fisto seems like one of the younger Jedi and may not have been a Master when he took a Padawan. Unknown when Dooku trained Qui-Gon but considering the age of Qui-Gon (becoming a Master before taking on Obi-Wan I think) it is possible Dooku was only a Knight. Honestly we know more Masters than Knights, so that might be why we are having such a time trying to come up with examples.
