So I'm browsing Wookipedia, and something a little surprising strikes me - there aren't any Jawa Jedi! What's up with that? I mean, if I got the chance to write an official Star Wars novel or comic or something, the first thing I'd do would be to stick a Jawa Jedi knight in the background or something. I mean, hell, they're already wearing the robes, and being short's no drawback when it comes to being a Jedi master! What's not to love about Jawas? They have giant transports and repair droids and have a language which apparently consists entirely of shouting "Utini!"
So, OK, granted, maybe most people aren't as fond of Jawas as I am - but surely someone would have written one by now! Damnit, we've got canon Hutt Jedi but no Jawas! Granted, the only Hutt Jedi we've seen was in the cracktastic Planet of Twilight, which also features a rogue appetizer as the main villain, and I'm pretty fond of the idea of Hutt Jedi too, but still...
Is there a conspiracy? Does Lucas reject any proposal for a story containing Jawas with lightsabers? Is he anti-Jawa? Damnit, where's my Jedi Jawas?!
