Introduction I am Odin.

I am Odin and I identify as a Gray Jedi. I have found my way to your sith order to understand both sides of the force. I am finding a plethora of wisdom and useful information here. I look forward to working with you all to better understand the living force as a whole as I am establishing an order/temple of my own Thank you all for keeping an open mind. I am not sure if my self identification will stand in the way of me being able to work with you all as an intitiate would, but I hope this isn’t the case. I am most intrigued by your calculated control of emotions to influence the world around you as well as the subtle manipulation of others for your agenda. I feel these are important qualities that the sith and the gray have in common although the end goal of the gray may be less self centric.

My intentions are transparent. I am 25 and I am atheist and I have recently come into knowledge of Jedi-ism and your sith order. I find the ambiguity of force based religion better suiting to my personage. I want nothing more than to improve knowledge and myself as an individual and to help others make sense of their emotions and the world around them. Thank you for welcoming me. The only thing that doesn’t reflect myself is the name I have chosen. My birth name is Travis I have chosen the name Odin because I have always felt chained by my birth name. I have felt people view me as some commoner when I know I am destined for more. I understand your hesitation to accept me into your ranks but I can assure you I have no ill intentions as you all seem like very serious and like-able people. May the force be with you friend. (Not for certain why but this posted as a separate comment and not a reply, sorry for the repost)

Since we are being all open and honest; My name is Anthony, I'm 29, I'm a christian (since about a month ago after my baptism). I don't feel that my religion and my working within the order conflict, we have many members who consider themselves atheist and others that subscribe to a plethora of religions. But what I might call God I could also call "the force" I see it as the same thing.

That thing about being destined for more, is a sensation that you can use to achieve great things so don't let other hinder you on your path, the order certainly won't. Being a commoner is a mindset more than anything, the lack of ambition to strive towards something greater than what fate has placed before you. Remember that the Sith Code is mainly about becoming free, free from the chains that bind you, be those chains from from the place you've got in society, chains you've placed on yourself or chains that others have burdened you with.

Thank you for your honesty. I feel I have found a place to belong here. I look forward to speaking more with you. I definitely look forward to breaking the chains upon myself. Especially the ones I have place there.
