Ranges within the Jedi Order of Star Wars have always been more or less clear for fans of the Expanded Universe, but certainly have changed more over time than Padme Amidala of modelito (and hairstyle). In 2020 the hierarchy of the Jedi Order was unified in order to have a clear pattern when it comes to knowing the ranks of the Order, clearly establishing that the Grand Masters were the highest position within their ranks, the chiefs of the Jedi Order. , almost similar to the Pope, to put a simile in the real world.
The Grand Master Yoda was the only Grand Master Jedi known within new Star Wars canon (In Legends were a few). This fact has changed since the arrival of Star Wars: The High Republic, which has introduced two new Jedi Grand Masters.
Set a few centuries before Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace, Star Wars The High Republic will feature Yoda before he was Grand Master, which will imply that other people will occupy the honorable position within the Jedi Order.
Lucasfilm Publishing (via ScreenRant) has revealed the names of two of those Jedi Grand Masters: Lahru and Vete. The Light of the Jedi novel will see Lahru rise to the rank of Grand Master. For its part, The High Republic # 1 comic mentions that Veter is a Grand Master of the Jedi Order. Of course, we still do not know much about these characters beyond their presence in the plot that will wrap the theme of Star Wars: The High Republic.
What do you think of the new additions to the rank of Jedi Grand Master that Star Wars: The High Republic will bring us?
