Today the Dark Lord reveals the greatest Jedi/Sith ever to live and explains why in an in depth description. So without further adu, I give you the nominees...

*NOTE: QUEL-DROM SAV IS THE CHARACTER FROM KOTOR II THAT YOU PLAY AS WHEN YOU ARE GOOD (I NAMED HIM QUEL-DROM SAV BECAUSE THAT WAS WHAT I NAMED MY CHARACTER IN THE GAME SO WHEN YOU SEE HIS NAME IT MEANS THE CHARACTER YOU PLAY AS IN KOTOR II WHEN PLAYING IT GOOD).

1. Luke- redeemed his father. Was able to look Sidious in the face and deny all the power in the galaxy and surrender himself to be executed rather than submit to the Dark Side. This resistance and show of love for his father, friends, principles, and the galaxy itself is well more than enough to nominate him.

2. Kreia/Darth Traya- trained Quel-Drom Sav (see bottom). Taught one of the most valuable lessons, which is that even though you are more powerful when you are pure evil or pure good, true power lies in the ability to defect from/deny that power, as Luke and Quel-Drom Sav did. She could not do this herself, but because she knew this was the key to the ultimate power, she is a candidate.

Kreia-"Never doubt what you have done. All your decisions have brought you to this point."-(anyone see a reference to Qui-gon?)

3. Revan- brought the Republic to its knees well within range of being conquered by sheer force- something no one has ever been able to do since the formation of the Republic, but was able to turn away and leave for unknown regions of space. The fact that he was able to amount a force and nearly take over the Republic was enough to make him a candidate, but then he chooses to walk away from that power in order to accomplish something even greater that is still unknown, which gives him an extra boost.

4. Dooku- fell from respected Jedi Master to powerful Sith Lord. This alone makes him very powerful and a worth nominee. In addition to that, however, he also aided Sidious in his scheme to conquer the Republic and is responsible for almost the same number of atrocities and casualties as Sidious is. Many, including myself, would not classify him as evil, however.

5. Anakin- the Chosen One who destroyed the Sith and Sidious- enough said. But just to elaborate, he was able to fall so far from the light and then return to it like only one other person in the galaxy has ever done.

6. Sidious- killed Plaguies, his master, destroyed the Republic; turned the Chosen One into a Sith; responsible for millions of civilian, trooper, and Jedi casualties; all in secrecy exactly as he had planned. Noted by most as possibly the greatest Sith ever to grace the galaxy. It is also possible that he created Anakin.

7. Plaguies- possibly discovered the Sith equivalent of Shamon of the Whills, which is to prolong life. It is also possible that he created Sidious or Anakin.

8. Quel-Drom Sav- like Luke was able to look the Dark Side in the face and say no. Unlike Luke, however, he defeated 3 powerful Sith Lords, and fell to the Dark Side, before becoming good and pure once again. It is this fact that he was able to fall so far and return to the light that makes him a top nominee.

9. Yoda- one of the oldest and wisest Jedi Masters of all time. His wisdom is surpassed by almost no one. He is the greatest duelist of all time and the strongest Jedi of all time.

10. Obi-wan Kenobi- was able to raise the man who redeemed the Chosen One. He also trained the Chosen one and had Qui-gon Jinn as a teacher. Because of his connections with these people and how strong he was in the Force, makes him a candidate. Not to mention the fact that he sacrificed himself so others could escape the same fate.

11. Qui-gon Jinn- discovered the Shammon of the Whills. Although unorthodox at times, he always used the Force as a guide and trusted it in everything he did and was rewarded for his loyalty. This makes him a perfect candidate for this award.

12. Mace Windu- although radical and unable to control his anger at times, he is nearly pure good, with little trace of evil in him. He is a master duelist and strong in the Force, using it as a guide to help the general good of the people.

Unfortunately we have a three-way tie... the winners are... [drumroll]

Luke, for denying almost endless power.

Quel-Drom Sav and Anakin, for falling so far from the light and being able to return to it.

Kreia/Darth Traya was a close 2nd (er or I guess that would be a 4th), and was going to be included because she was the one who realized why Quel-Drom Sav was so powerful and discovered that secret, but was not chosen for the winner because she herself could not turn back to the light.

Revan was also a close choice because he denied having control over the Republic, instead choosing to search for a greater cause/fight, but his motives were unclear and we don't know what happened to him yet, so he was not chosen.

Summary: Luke, Quel-Drom Sav, and Anakin are the three most powerful Jedi for the following reasons:

Luke, for denying almost endless power.

Quel-Drom Sav and Anakin, for falling so far from the light and being able to return to it.

These two things the three of them did, is what true power is all about and that's why they are the most powerful.

"I am a Jedi, like my father before me..."-Luke
