Azkul
Edit
I've tried at least thrice to cite Azkul as belonging to Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords (this page currently mislabels him as appearing in the first game). Someone or some process, however, is "undoing" my change on every try... 69.88.228.158 05:01, May 8, 2010 (UTC)
Atton
Edit
Out of curiosity why is he mentioned under both Force Sensitive and Other ? Surely the fact his Force Sensitivity was the key to his ability to kill Jedi should be the defining aspect of him being a Jedi Hunter ? Going to remove if nobody has any objections. ZeitgeistGlee 10:57 30 August 2010
Wording of first sentence
Edit
Currently it says "A Jedi hunter was anyone who frequently killed Jedi...". Would it better to say "anyone who specialized in killing Jedi"? I can't decide. Any other suggestions would be welcome. – Aidje talk 21:19, 28 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- I agree, i've made the correction. Jasca Ducato 16:01, 23 January 2006 (UTC)
Uh...
Edit
Worst. Article. Idea. Ever. Seriously though, the connection between those three listed individuals, and any others who might pop-up, is a stretch. I'm failing to see the value of this article. --SparqMan 21:26, 28 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- I agree. There's no actual job, organization, group or title called 'Jedi hunter', and the three examples hunt Jedi for different reasons, at different times. There's not really enough of a connection to warrant an article, IMO - Kwenn
- I thought it would be an interesting idea to have a list of Jedi hunters. It is a relatively common term for a practice carried out by multiple individuals, and I didn't think there would be anything wrong with explaining the term to those not familiar with it, as well as providing a list of such individuals. I didn't put anything in the article to imply that the individuals had anything in common besides the fact that they killed Jedi. If everyone else thinks this is such a terrible idea, then whatever. I didn't think it was that bad... – Aidje talk 23:50, 28 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- I don't think it really has a purpose. Jedi hunter is pretty self-explanatory and not specific to a certain group of people. Plus, you could make an article called Rebel hunter and that could have been anyone in the Empire right? I don't think this is needed... --Shane613 18:00, 11 Jul 2005 (UTC)
- I agree this article isn't that good. I think it should be deleted. I mean a Jedi Hunter was really every Sith Lord that existed. Now that's a lot of Sith Lords. There were a lot.
- Not really. Jedi hunter is a term specific to people who hunt Jedi "whether it be for profit, revenge, pleasure or as a requirement". A random Sith Lord might never kill a Jedi but because he's a Sith he is a Jedi hunter? I dont think so. I admit most of the people on the list i don't know a lot about because i don't have access to a lot of the EU, the only ones i can vouch for are:

- 501st
- Darth Vader
- Dark Side Adepts
- HK-47
- Emperor's Hands
- Inquisitors
- Atton Rand
- Qymaen jai Sheelal (also known as General Grievous)
- Sherruk
- Darth Sion
- Terentateks
- Voxyn
- These people made a living out of killing Jedi. Vader certainly, HK-47 was built to hunt Jedi by Revan, Qymaen jal Sheelal certainly (just look at his article), Atton Rand from what info we have in KOTOR II, Darth Sion leads the Sith Assassins and the Terentateks were built to hunt Jedi by Exar Kun. Its not just a name for a person who kills one Jedi.
Boba Fett?
Edit
Would Boba Fett not be considered a Jedi hunter? If you look on his uniform there are the braids of the Jedi. And apparently Boba and Darth got along well (you can tell there is some previous relationship between them in ESB). I also think that the Databank on StarWars.com states that Darth and Boba had a quiet but mutual respect for each other. Episode II would also tell us why Boba would hunt Jedi, revenge for him witnessing a Jedi (Mace Windu) kill his beloved father Jango. Please tell me if I am wrong.
- First, every source I've seen says that those are Wookiee scalps. Second, judging Boba's character from what I've read, he would not worry himself about revenge. He tends to reject the kind of emotions that would lead one to seek revenge, saying that they are worthless and not profitable, nor beneficial to one's performance. However, if he was being paid by Vader to help execute the Purge, I'm sure he would have no qualms about hunting Jedi. – Aidje talk 20:38, 29 Sep 2005 (UTC)
- Well, he did seek vengeance on Mace Windu, finally confronting him shortly before Episode 3, in Boba Fett: Pursuit. In those books, I seem to recall him not liking Jedi. I guess he learns his lesson when Mace beats him. And it's not like anything could top Jango's death. Anyways, what's the source for him helping with the Purge?-LtNOWIS 23:52, 29 Sep 2005 (UTC)
- I'm not sure if there is any offical source (and if there is, Boba's activities during the Purge would only be implied). One of the Tales issues features Fett's lightsabre collection, and he remarks on his Jedi hunting prowess during a duel with Darth Vader (something about Vader not being the only Jedi hunter in the Purge) - though naturally this isn't part of the canon - Kwenn
- Until we've got 100% canonical proof, i'm removing his name from the list. Jasca Ducato 15:38, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

- Does any body know how many Jedi Darth Vader killed?
- Vader killed as many as 35 jedi and seems to have killed about 1/4 of all order 66 survivors as well. To see his kills, just go to the order 66 page.
- As for Boba Fett, there was a comic where he was commented by one of his bounties as having been a help to the empire in killing jedi. He wouldn't necessarily be killing for revenge, more for the high price tag.
Isn't there also a quote where he comments about his hatred of jedi in general? The Brades are from Wookies and theres no movie tv show comic book book or novel or anything where he kills a Jedi although its mentioned multible times in novels books and comic books that he s killed Jedi but never shown im hopeing to get some proof out of some where oh and does it constantly saying it but it never being shown mean he did or did int--Tomahawk23 23:28, October 9, 2011 (UTC)
Re-Organization
Edit
I think this page is workable, but I think it could do with some more organization. I think the list should be divided up into seperate categories; indeviduals who hunt jedi (Durge, Grievous), groups who hunt Jedi (501st, Emperor's Hands), creatures bred to hunt Jedi (Voxyn, Tarentatek), and maybe one or two more. As it is, though, the list is too random.Darth Ceratis 19:47, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
- No. I think it's fine as it is atm. Darth Abeonis Sith Council (Sith campaign) 07:45, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
It's too much of a mish-mash. I think it needs to be more categoricalDarth Ceratis 03:04, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
- They are listed alphabeticalally. That is fine. Darth Abeonis Sith Council (Sith campaign) 08:49, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
Jango Fett
Edit
Lets sort this out, Jango Fett was not a Jedi hunter. So don't add him! Jasca Ducato 17:50, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
- The beginning of the article says "A Jedi hunter was anyone who specialized in killing Jedi, whether it be for profit, revenge, pleasure or as a requirement." Jango killed quite a few Jedi for all those reasons, for profit (Komari Vosa), revenge (the Jedi he killed at Galidraan), pleasure (he disliked Jedi for wiping out the Mandalorians), and as a requirement (Coleman Trebor at the Batttle of Geonosis). Seems like he would be considered a Jedi hunter to me. The whole reason he was selected as the template for the clone army was because he was so skilled at killing Jedi, which he proved by killing Komari Vosa. Also, in the Star Wars Miniatures game by Wizards of the Coast, Jango is considered a Jedi hunter. Just a little side note. Beisdes, I don't see why he isn't considered a Jedi hunter in this article when his son, whose Jedi hunter status hasn't been proven, is. Jango Fett107 13:29, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
- He killed Komari Vosa because it was a bounty. He may have disliked the Jedi but he didn't go out for revenge. He was chosen as the template for the Clone Army because he was a skilled soldier, not a good Jedi killer. And as for Boba, he did kill many Jedi, we even have an image on this article which proves it. Jasca Ducato 14:12, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
- Yes, it was a bounty meaning he killed her (a Jedi) as a requirement (and for profit), which doesn't disprove that he was a Jedi hunter, it actually makes him fit the discription of what a Jedi hunter is. You're right that he didn't go out for revenge, however his killing of Jedi at Galidraan was his revenge for what they were doing in a way, which also makes him fit the discription as a Jedi hunter. And actually, the reason he was selected as the template for the clone army wasn't wasn't just that he was a skilled soldier, it actually had everything to do with him being a good Jedi killer. As the article of Jango Fett can tell you, the bounty against Komari Vosa was a test to see if Jango's skills against Jedi were true. If so, clones trained under his supervision would be very effective once Order 66 was issued. Dooku knew, that while Jango had personally killed many Jedi on Galidraan (some with his bare hands), his former padawan aprrentice would be a more challenging test, a test which he passed. So he was chosen as the template because he was a good Jedi killer. So I think he should be considered a Jedi hunter, especially when a officially Lucasfilmed licenced source like Wizards of the Coast says he is. As for Boba, I don't know what image you are talking about. I don't see any images on this artcile that proves he killed Jedi. If you are talking about the image in Boba's article where he is wielding a Jedi's lightsaber that he says he took from a Jedi he killed, that image is noncanon, along with the story. So Boba never really killed any Jedi. Jango Fett107 14:50, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
- I don't think Jango belongs. I went over his whole article and didn't see much Jedi hunting. The battle of Galidraan was just that, a battle. It was between two relatively large groups and it wasn't for revenge. The Jedi showed up to stop his Mandalorian group and Jango refused to back down. Was that the first time Jango had even met a Jedi? He killed Coleman Trebor to defend Dooku, that's not really hunting. But I'll give you that one. The only real Jedi hunting he did was to collect the bounty on Komari Vosa, but she wasn't even a Jedi at that point. Still, I'll give you that one too. A quick skirmish with Kenobi to facilitate his escape from Kamino. Jumping into the arena on Geonosis to attack Windu only to get decapitated in like two seconds. Does two kills, one not even a Jedi, really make you a Jedi hunter? Sorry for bumping an old subject, I just don't think Jango belongs on the list.71.227.40.49 22:48, November 28, 2010 (UTC)

Sourcing
Edit
- I've added lots of {{Fact}} to the article. If they're not updates soon, I shall be removing them from the list. Jasca Ducato Sith Council 00:04, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

Aurra Sing
Edit
Aurra Sing was a former jedi, so she is force-sensitive?!--Dajasj 17:09, May 25, 2010 (UTC)
- Yes, she is. 71.140.201.21 05:11, June 29, 2010 (UTC)
- Then shouldn't she be put in the Force Sensitive list? jedi_master425
Bossk Boushh Dengar Zuckuss and IG-88?
Edit
I don't think that any of these people have ever killed Jedi in canon. Nor do I think that they have ever claimed to have killed Jedi have they, ever claimed to have killed Jedi killed Jedi or has anyone ever said they have killed Jedi. Have any of these people ever killed Jedi?--Tomahawk23 01:42, December 19, 2011 (UTC)
