I like to play as characters who at least share a bit of my own perspective on things. I've never really agreed on some of the ideals of the Jedi Order from a real-life perspective, and was more in agreement with people like Jinn and even Skywalker. I wouldn't outright turn on them and slaughter the younglings like Anakin did.Therefore, my Jedi would have been in the Order but once he became a Knight he 'resigned' from it because he couldn't bring himself to fight for something he did not agree with, nor could the Jedi Order allow someone in their ranks who would not abide by their code. Thus, he becomes a Gray Jedi - someone who walks the line between both sides of the Force. I suppose the Republic/Empire would be hunting down any Jedi who posed a threat, yes? My Gray Jedi would be in the records at the Jedi Temple, and I am sure Palpatine would send someone to find him.Also, I have questions in A Grim Hope if you're interested in answering those.

Being outside of the Jedi Order doesn't really help. We are literally at the raid of the Jedi Temple lead by Anakin and the 501st. Also quite a few Jedi didn't believe fully in the code but parts of it they accepted. Not to mention there were very few members of the Order that ever walked away. I mean its kinda like turning your back on a family that has never abused you, hurt you and has always looked after and nurtured you. It doesn't make sense. 

The grey Jedi were kinda a more active offshoot. Like Qui-Gon and later Anakin they were on the border as they let their feelings influence some decisions and felt that the nansy pants skirting around the problem method of the Jedi wasn't really effective. They believed in the ideals, just not the method. They were slapped on the wrist but they were never outright extradited.
