Lore Watch: The weird similarities shared by the Kirin Tor and the Jedi Order

With the rigidity of the structure of the Kirin Tor and the Jedi Order, and their propensity for keeping secrets about power — and sometimes that power for themselves — there are a ton of parallels between these two organizations. Our hosts Matt and Joe dive deep into both the World of Warcraft universe and the Star Wars universe in order to compare and contrast the master light side wielders of the force and the best mages in Azeroth.

While this doesn’t imply that, for instance, Rhonin is a Jedi, it doesn’t not imply it, either.
