Jedi Hunter (specialization)

Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

Jedi Hunters were a specialized group of Jedi Seekers who operated far from the civilized reaches of the galaxy, where dangerous predators threatened sentient life—ranging from wild beasts devouring anything in their path to twisted individuals who relished a bloodthirsty existence. In these untamed fringes, these uniquely gifted Force adepts tracked, confronted, and eliminated such malice. They moved unseen through treacherous terrains, maintained constant vigilance, and struck down their targets from afar with ranged weaponry.

Driven neither by glory nor a desire for slaughter, they relied on their deep connection to the Force to distinguish animals hunting out of survival from creatures acting out of pure cruelty. Though reluctant to disrupt the natural order, a Jedi Hunter stepped in without hesitation whenever a predator destroyed habitats or killed needlessly. Yet, the deadliest trials arose when these dark, animalistic instincts manifested in sentient beings, forcing the Hunter to pursue intelligent quarry in the most perilous game of all.
