Curious why you gave the Jedi Force Choke, Force Lightning and other traditionally Dark Side powers? Seems to me like they should have gotten different Saber styles and divination abilities. Or make the Force Lightning instead like a Telekinetic thrust of sorts that instead of dealing damage bull rushes enemies back based on jedi level and Reflex save vs being knocked prone. Maybe make it a small aoe like a 10 ft square or something. Force Choke is a little more neutral I guess.Races: Any race can become a Jedi.
Jedi
Alignment: Any Lawful.
Starting Gold: 6d4x10 gp (120 gp).
Starting Age: As a monk.
Hit Die: d10.
Jedi Code:
Although the Jedi have no real code of conduct, they must follow the principles of the origin of their powers: the pure control of their emotions and detachment from others. A Jedi who gains an inappropriate alignment or transgresses the Jedi code (lose control of his emotion) loses his powers: he loses access to all of his Jedi class features except his weapon proficiency. Only through hard work or an atonement spell offered by a lawful creature he can regain his powers.
There is no emotion, there is peace.
There is no ignorance, there is knowledge.
There is no passion, there is serenity.
There is no chaos, there is harmony.
There is no death, there is the Force.
The Jedi’s class skills (and the key ability modifier for each skill) are Acrobatics (Dex), Climb (Str), Diplomacy (Cha), Disguise (Cha), Escape Artist (Dex), Intimidate (Cha), Heal (Wis), Knowledge (history) (Int), Knowledge (nature) (Int), Knowledge (planes) (Int), Perception (Wis), Sense Motive (Wis), Sleight of Hand (Dex), Stealth (Dex), and Swim (Str).
Skill Ranks per Level: 4 + Int modifier.

All of the following are class features of the Jedi.
Weapon and Armor Proficiency
Jedi are proficient with all simple weapons, the lightsaber (see below) and light armor. However, they are not proficient with any shields.
Access to the Force
Jedi, like Kineticist and Mesmerist is an occult class and gains access to the occult skill unlocks.
Clear Mind (Ex)
A Jedi add ½ his level (minimum 1) as a bonus against effects with the emotion descriptor like the spell rage.
Force Block (Su)
At 1st level, a Jedi can make a concentration check as an immediate action, using is Jedi level plus is Wisdom modifier, versus a DC of 10 + rounds concentrating + any damage taken in this round, for block any airborne object coming his way. In case of projectile the DC is instead equal to the result of the attack roll. A Jedi can block 10 pounds of matter per Jedi level. This ability can only affect objects within 30 ft. from the Jedi.
Lightsaber
The Lightsaber is made from a unique crystal that is unbreakable and emits a glow. Different crystals can be used to achieve different color glows. The hilt is also unique in sturdiness and can come in many designs. A Jedi can choose whatever design for a hilt and whatever color of a crystal he wishes. His Lightsabers is a one-handed exotic weapon, belongs to the heavy blades weapon group, deal force damage, score a critical hit on a natural 20/x2 and scaling like a monk unarmed strike, using his Jedi level in place of a monk level. The Lightsaber count as a light weapon for the Weapon Finess feat. This weapon can only be used by those who have access to occult power (see Pathfinder Roleplaying Game Occult Adventures) and they too have a -8 penalty to attack rolls with the weapon and treat their occult level as equivalent to half a monk level (minimum 1) for calculating the damage of the lightsaber if they don’t have the Lightsaber class feature. Occult level from multiple source (ex: Jedi 4/Mesmerist 2, Occultist 3/Kyneticist 6) stack when calculating the lightsaber final damage. If the Jedi or another class with the lightsaber class feature take level in a non-occult class, that level stack with the Jedi level for calculating the final damage of the lightsaber but those levels count as half when calculated in monk levels. Occult character who do not have the lightsaber class feature can’t use non-occult level when calculating the lightsaber final damage damage.
A lightsaber cost 2,000 gp and require the Craft Technological Item and Technologist feats and the Lightsaber class feature to be crafted.

If the target does not succeed a Reflex save (10+ ½ Jedi level + Jedi’s Wisdom modifier) he is knocked prone. A Jedi can use this ability a number of times per day equal to 3 + Wisdom modifier. [Setting info: if set in the universe of star wars, the Jedi, even if they can use the lightning of force, they do not do it except in the most extreme of circumstances because they are associated with the release of emotions, the Dark Side and the Sith. If a Jedi abuses it too often, the GM can estimate that it slips to the Dark Side and becomes a Sith, just like abusing spells with the evil descriptor brings you down to evil alignment].
