First off: If you want to be iconic Jedi, I'd say emphasize your lightsaber prowess. Problem is, with that 7 crippling you, it won't be easy as Jedi more-or-less need all stats.

However, here's another idea: Keep the 7 STR, and instead, become a Force-focused Jedi.

The Force powers can be massively powerful, and you should take full advantage of them. I suggest changing your stats to the following:

STR 7 DEX 12 COM 10 INT 12 WIS 16 CHA 16

Now, at levels 1 and 3, take Force Training as your feats. Bonus feat should be Skill Focus (Use The Force), maybe more skill trainings, or Force Boon (extra force point) Also talk with your GM about making Diplomacy a class skill for Jedi, since I see no good reason why it isn't. Be trained in that.

Next, talents. Force Focus is AMAZING. As a full-round action, recover a spent force power. So useful, both in and out of combat. Skilled Advisor grants any ally a +5 on a skill check, if you spend a full-round action. Very useful. The Telekinetic tree (telekinetic Power, TK Savant, TK Prodigy, etc) are also pretty good.

Alternatively: Dip noble for a level, pick Exceptional Skill for UTF. If you ever roll between 2 and 7 on a UTF check, it's now treated as an 8. Every time. It's stupid useful.

Powers: Move Object is a must. Negate Energy is a must. Force Grip restricts enemies to a minor action. Useful. Force Shield is wonderful in a pinch. Enlighten is maybe the most useful thing of all. Roll a UTF check. Congrats, you or an ally can use that roll in the place of something - attack roll, skill check, or defense, as a one-time switch. If your UTF modifier is high, it's a godsend. Sensitive, one-time thing, such as a diplomacy check, or disarming a bomb? Roll Enlighten, and give it to the person. If they roll better, great. If not, they use your result. Combine this with the above mentioned Force Focus and you are immediately one of the most useful party members.

With this, you've got a pretty damn powerful Jedi. Iconic? Not as much. But useful to the party? Hell. Yes.

As an alternate idea, but you'll need to start it now. Renew Vision + lots of Farseeing uses + Prepared for Danger. Prep For Danger lets you spend a Farseeing use and regain any already used power as a swift action. Renew Vision lets you regain all spent uses of Farseeing. The other WatchCircle talents (see the Knights of the Old Republic Campaign Guide) are also immensely useful, but that combo right there? you can't do it until level 8 at the earlier (as Prepared For Danger is a Jedi Knight talent), but when you can...hooo boy.

Also, if you reeeeally wanna optimize? Drop Zabrak, become a Miraluka. Free Force Training at first level if you're trained in UTF, which you will be as a Jedi.

Also also: Someone on the Wizards forums went and made indicies. So, so, SO very helpful. Here's the link: http://www.mediafire.com/?w7mlg0lq70gnd90

Wizards hasn't shut down the thread yet, so they seem okay with it, as the indicies don't contain all the specifics - just general stuff and tags.

I hope this helps! I've made lots of Force Users in Saga Edition, so this is my area of expertise.

EDIT: Since you asked, here you go:

Iconic Jedi are proficient in both Force Powers and Lightsaber ability - Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi were both accomplished duelists as well as Force masters.

The problem here is that without being very high level, your character cannot be good at both, especially with those stats.

If you want to maximize your ability for both, however, here's what I suggest. Assuming level 4 Jedi, with the stat build I gave you.

Talents: Deflect & Force Focus. Deflect will protect you from ranged fire, and you can work your way to the Praetoria Ishu talent which is from the Imperial Knight prestige class in the Legacy book. That talent lets you use it on others.

Force Focus has many uses outside of combat, and is a good emergency talent to have in combat in case you really need is.

Feats: Force Training, twice. This gives you 8 Force powers to choose from.
Bonus feats: Skill Focus (Use The Force) and Weapon Finesse, if you want. Take advantage of your DEX mod for your lightsaber, if or when you need it.

Poderes:
- Move Object - no brainer
- Vital Transfer - good for healing, but have medpacs on hand as well
- Enlighten - the ultimate in helping the party. Use it often, recover as a full round when outside of combat (or in combat).
- Negate Energy - just in case.
- Mind Trick - Another classic Jedi power.
- Force Grip - can more-or-less disable on enemy in a round, plus decent damage at lower levels.
- Force Slam - a good area effect power.
- Surge - the movement bonuses can be very, very handy to have

Okay so here is what you want to do for starters:

• Take move object, it is the most versatile power in the entire game.

• If you haven't already take skill focus: Use the Force, this at your level should bring you up to +15 on those checks.

• At some point take one level of Scoundrel to take the talent Fool's Luck which allows you to get +5 to any one skill for an encounter if you spend a force point.
• When you take your first prestige class that allows you to have a force technique choose Force Point Recovery to give you back the force point you will use every encounter.

All of that is in the main book for guidance. Do also take Force Training whenever you can, and increase your Wisdom as well when possible, and there you go, you have turned yourself into an unstoppable embodiment of the Force.

One thing you can do is not worry so much about Cha

STR 7 DEX 16 CON 10 INT 12 WIS 16 CHA 12

your UTF checks should be bolstered by skill focus and eventually other things.

weapon finesse is a must here and you may look into battle strike or lightsbaer combat force powers to make up for the low strength.

Really, if you can get up on a pillar using surge or levitate you should eb able to fight off enemies from a distance.

Do not overlook adept negotiator for instance as a means to just talk an enemy down.

also if you level dip look into weapon proficiency pistols as your free proficiency. You should be able to hold a lightsaber in one hand to take advantage of deflect while shooting with a pistol at enemies.

If you're willing to hold out for a few levels, get Weapon Finesse, and then once you become a Knight, use your first Knight talent take the Ataru form- this allows you to utilize your Dex bonus instead of your Str bonus for damage; it also this doubles your Dex bonus to damage if you're using two hands on a saber.

Until then, worry about Foco da Arma e Especialização em armas in lightsabers. As for force powers, I'd suggest Mover Objeto, Ballistikinesis (A partir do Knights of the Old Republic sourcebook) and Negate Energy. Curar e Heal Another are also really useful in a sticky situation.

Something I haven't seen anyone else mention yet:

Saga Edition is muito multi-class friendly. You could dip into Scout for Evasion, and flavor it as your deflect skill (it'll only help you against auto-fire, but that's common enough). If your concept involves more of a force-wizard or diplomat type, you could level dip and get a nice talent from the Noble.

The low strength isn't that much of a hindrance. By 4th level, your level bonus to damage will compensate for that, and as others have mentioned, there are feat/talent/prestige class combinations that will let you overcome it completely.

Rest assured, you'll get to pick from plenty of talents through your character's career.

Block and deflect are good. Deflect, especially since all sorts of people have blasters. Weapon finesse would be good, as that would offset the str penalty. Skill focus UTF would be nice too.
