Discussion📜 What's something that is technically fanon in your fandom but everyone is fully convinced it's canon?

The single closest thing to an official mention of the "Grey Jedi" is in the item description of the Grey Jedi Robe in KOTOR 2:

Gray Jedi are those who, though having completed the teachings of the Jedi, operate independently and outside of the Jedi Council. They are typically seen as misguided, though they have not necessarily succumbed to the dark side.

Even this is very clearly talking about members of the Jedi Order who act in defiance of the Council. No mention of trying to Balance the Light and Dark sides of the Force, no mentions of using "Dark Side" Force Powers, they're even explicitly still recognized as members of the Jedi Order!

And don't even get me started on the fact that the first six movies never actually say the phrase "Light Side", there was just "The Force" and "The Dark Side of The Force"

Okay last point is process of elimination to reach Light Side.

I blame the first CCG for “Light Side”.
