Monk
Base Class: Monk

The Jedi are an ancient order of monks who refer to Ki as the Force. Unlike other monks the Jedi believe that Ki, or the Force, is an energy that not only exists within living things but within all matter that suffuses the multiverse. The Jedi often spend their lives in secluded meditation in order to hone their focus and broaden their minds so that they may become one with the Force. Jedi can use their affinity with the Force to attain powers both subtle and fantastical.

A Jedi's Lightsaber

Starting when you choose this tradition at 3rd level, you have learned the ancient Jedi method of crafting a lightsaber. By spending 8 hours and using rare material components including a light-focusing crystal, you can create a lightsaber which counts as a monk weapon for you. If your lightsaber is ever damaged or destroyed you can repeat this ritual to create a new one, provided you have the proper materials. Your lightsaber is a Sun Blade that lacks the versatile property. The lightsaber you create at this level gives no magical pluses to attack or damage rolls, but it will scale in power as you reach milestones in this subclass. Your lightsaber becomes a +1 weapon at level 6, +2 at level 11, and +3 at level 17. In addition, if your lightsaber is within 30 feet of you, you can use an action to summon it to your hand. At 11th level, your lightsaber gains the Thrown property with a range of (20/60), and your lightsaber will return to your hand immediately after the attack.

Jedi Leap

At 6th level, while not incapacitated both your jump height and distance are tripled.

Minor Force Abilities

At 6th level, you have begun to gain a small amount of control over the Force around you. As an action, you can spend 2 ki points to cast calm emotionscomprehend languages, or enhance ability, without providing material components. Additionally, you gain the mage hand cantrip if you don't already know it. When you cast mage hand, you can make the hand invisible and you can use your bonus action to control the hand.

Major Force Abilities

By 11th level, your understanding of the Force has deepened. By spending an hour in meditation, which can be done during a short rest, you can use one of your attunement slots to attune to an Aspect of the Force. You can only be attuned to two Aspects of the Force at any time, using an attunement slot for each Aspect. During a short rest, you can meditate for an hour to swap one Aspect you are attuned to for a different one.

Aspect of Control: As an action you can use telekinesis, as per the spell, at will without providing verbal or material components, but you can target only Objects that aren't being worn or carried. 

Aspect of the Mind: As an action you can use detect thoughts, as per the spell (save DC 13),  without providing verbal or material components. As long as you maintain concentration on this ability, you can use a bonus action to send a telepathic message to a creature you are focused on. It can reply -- using a bonus action to do so -- while your focus on it continues. While focusing on a creature with detect thoughts, you can use an action to issue a suggestion, as per the spell (save DC 13) without providing a material component. You can only use suggestion in this way once per long rest. 

Aspect of the Hermit: You are hidden from divination magic. You can't be targeted by such magic or perceived through magical scrying sensors.  

Jedi Master

At level 17, you have become a master of the mysterious and ethereal powers of the Force. You can project your own presence and senses through the Force to a distant location. You can use an action to use project image, as per the spell, without providing any components. You can use your Minor Force Abilities via your projected image as if you were in its space, but are otherwise limited in what you can do as per the normal restrictions of the spell description. You must finish a long rest before you use this feature again.
