“Jedi” must buy at least 1 rank of (parry or reflect), 1 rank of Lore, and 1 rank of Discipline

I did something similar for my son...much easier because it's only one PC, but still...

The setting is 800 BBY, so pretty much on par to Clone Wars for Jedi capabilities. Since the tone is investigative/murder mystery (and my son likes the sneaky types) I made him a Sentinel Shadow, granted for free the Investigator and Shien Expert trees, gave all career skills two ranks (except lightsaber), made sure he had 1 rank of Discipline and Lore, the first row of every spec tree, made sure he had at least one Reflect, gave base powers for Sense, Seek, Enhance (and included the base Leap), and Move. That was the base line I figured would be required for a Pawadan on his first independent mission. Then I gave him 150XP to spend as he saw fit.

This is a lot of base XP, and honestly I think it would be a nightmare with a one-trick pony, but as long as you're not dealing with min/maxers it does create a pretty well-rounded character. He took the 3/3/3/3/2/2 option, so he's definitely a jack of all trades, with a few points of focus. He's still FR1, but it's working pretty well.

If I had to set up a whole party for this I'd probably do something similar, though maybe offer only one extra tree for free instead of two. Sense, Enhance, and Move would be must-haves, with perhaps a choice between Influence and Seek for the party Jedi.

Like I said not fallen. But seriously corrupted.

Believe that Yoda even made mention of how far from their ideals the Jedi Order had fallen during his vision-chat with Ezra during the second trip to the Lothal temple, when Ezra was determined to find some way to defeat the Sith.

Granted, this was a Yoda that was 16 years removed from the Clone Wars, giving him plenty of time for reflection upon the actions of himself and of the Jedi Order as a whole during the time he served as its Grand Master. And may have played a role in why he didn't instill much of the Jedi Order's dogma into Luke during the boy's training period on Dagobah.
