Does DK give him a free and immediate use of the targeted power? Also, it should probably be limited to 6 squares or at least LoS. The abilities look good though he feels a bit plain.

He didn't spend a lot of time on the Lightside so there really isn't a lot you can put on an OR version The biggest thing was his ambition to unravel the secrets of the Sith, hence Dark Knowledge. With GMA + Niman he's a fairly skilled with the LS, and DK makes him a potential Force Threat as well. Strong willed is an abstraction(very loose in this case) of how he resisted the Dark Side until it was a matter of life and death for him, and also adds a little sense of his arrogance.

DK isn't exactly free though - it's semi-free to activate (he already spent the FP when using DK), but it still requires him to meet all other conditions of the power chosen (such as replace attacks/turn, etc.). With the potential to join the enemy squad I think it's best off as a "rangeless" power (plus it's only rangeless to steal not necessarily the actual function). I will clarify things in the glossary entry for it.

I like this piece a lot. You picked a spot in the Exar Kun time line and honed in on it. I thing the DK wording could be cleared up a bit though. I nice modest set of stats making him a very usable everyday OR piece. The only thing I would change is MotF2. I don't like that he can block twice for 40 points. I really like version. Another excellent CCC build. Nice work.

I'd hesitate to remove MOTF2 as it entices the use of Dark Knowledge (plus he was thought to be quite powerful in the Force). Would this wording for Dark Knowledge make it easier "choose an enemy Force Power with a Force point cost of 2 or less, this character gains an immediate use of the chosen power. At the end..."

Would DK allow immediate attacks if used on Lightsaber Assault?

not exactly he'd still have to replace his attacks to use the power, as the intent is to allow access to a wide range of Force Powers (since he was strong in the force, with the downside being "falling to the Darkside") and bypasses the Force Point cost only, the other requirements of the chosen power are still necessary to use it.
