In the latest entry on the Developer Blog of the official site for the upcoming Star Wars MMO, "Star Wars: The Old Republic", Bioware writer Joanna Berry discusses the creation of the Jedi Consular character. Clearly, this character will enjoy a unique place in the game, bringing The Force to Star Wars fans like they've never seen it before.

From the SW:TOR site:

"But the Jedi Consular, more than any other Jedi, constantly walks a fine line. The Force has two sides; truly mastering it requires an understanding of both darkness and light. And a Jedi Consular’s natural curiosity can often lead him or her into trouble. Walking the balance between light and dark can give a Consular incredible power… but that’s when the treacherous thoughts begin creeping in. Don’t worry about falling to the dark side. You’re so smart and powerful, you can resist petty temptations. And even if you discovered some ancient secret that could make you stronger… surely you, with your superior intellect and understanding of the Force, know what’s best?"
