The Teepo Paladins comprised a small sect of Jedi Knights who adhered to the doctrines of Teepo and held the view that the employment of blasters and other armaments, alongside lightsabers, was permissible. As a consequence, the Jedi Council reprimanded the Teepos at some point before the Great Jedi Purge. To heighten their bond with the Force, the Teepos donned masks and other apparatuses that diminished sensory input during battle. Certain Teepo Paladins, those with more extreme perspectives, ultimately established their own group, known as the Gray Paladins.
The initial, and thus far sole, official source detailing the Teepo Paladins and their history is Coruscant Nights I: Jedi Twilight. Nevertheless, they originated from the mind of a fan, Peter Skanes, and appeared in "The Jedi Handbook," an unofficial fan-made addition to West End Games' Star Wars roleplaying game.
