If it is, then its not a recorded one anywhere I see.

Now Mando-Sith/Jedi I can get, but there is nothing wrong with a Jedi or Force Sensitive Wookie. They canonically exist. Several of them in fact. In core mythos.

Almost in the same vein as playing a Chiss military commander

They're also canonically rare; no more than one every 400 years at best. Kinda like hutt jedi. Yeah, it exists. Yeah, it's canon. And yeah, it's an idea which sounds cool... for about five minutes.

Canonically, anakin had an apprentice too. Several in fact. Doesn't make it a good idea though. <-counterarguement

But after CotGCW, and the guild got smarter, we kind of cracked down on "attention whore" characters. Mando Jedi, chosen one this, and wookiee jedi all kind of fell into that category of "it's been overdone to death by noobs" slot.

I really don't see how its an attention calling character really. And I really don't care who thinks that the character as a whole is a 'bad idea'. Nor if its cool.
Most concepts eventually break down from the 'cool factor' unless its flames are fanned through the game its being run in.
I'm not remembering any particularly difficult and horribly game changing concepts. Besides EK's cyber-Mandos. That one comes to mind.
Not counting my Jawa Jedi. But that was meant as a 'novel concept really'. I wasn't really expecting it to be taken serious.

And I was under the assumption that Hutt could not be Force Users?

Let's see:

Ashoka
Starkiller
Mara Jade

That's off the top of my head. Ashoka (I hope) dies. Starkiller was killed and then used as an assassin. Mara Jade was turned over to become the Emperor's Hand.

I know there were other Emperor's Hands and Dark Jedi, but I don't think any of them were apprentices

You assume much these days.

Oh, that one. Hrm... neutral

Although the topic does give me a conceptual idea for the profiling. "Exotic species" as a trait to be picked up, for people wanting to play the more rare things. If exotic weapons, odd defenses, and starships all are limited somewhat, i can see how something like durge or feeorins could be taken that way. Maybe time to discuss with the mod squad...

-shrugs-

Durge himself as depicted in The Clone Wars suggested a extreme example of his species. Realistically, even as Star Wars goes, he could not have been 'that' tough and powerful. I tend to write off most of the Clone Wars cartoon series as BS, I don't care if Lucas states its canon is more meaningful than the books.

While I would agree that most of The Clone Wars is bull, I'll contest that, when he was initially released, Durge was pretty cool. Course, that was back when Gendy was doing his miniseries

Cale, if you want a chance for it, have Cinn somehow intercept the Jedi and their pals. Danika will pull the whole, " You guys go ahead. I'll take care of this. " routine. That'll give Cinn the chance to fight a Jedi, and Danika the chance to do something Jedi-wise.

No, this is not how Jian deflects blasterbolts. For those who don't get the reference...

Okay, so Jian's got an option for clothing to be less obvious than Jedi robes.

However, the clothes came from a dancer, so that means the shirt's gonna be a little loose.

[insert flat-chested joke here]
