Friday Update: Jedi Knight Video Dissection
Drawing inspiration from our friends at Darthhater I’ve decided to start my own dissections of videos and provide my own speculations about potential unannounced features such as playable species, new companions and other odds an in’s about Star Wars:  The Old Republic.  In the new Jedi Knight Video posted by BioWare today there was a notable scene at 38-seconds in with a round table resembling the Jedi Council.  At the table are several different unannounced species including Duros, Togruta, Kel Dorian and a Rodian.
Speculation: Playable Species Duros, Togruta, Kel Dorian

As part of our ongoing class updates, we are thrilled to confirm the Advanced Classes for the valiant Jedi Knight Guardian and Sentinel! Whether you want to defend the weak and inspire your allies to amazing feats as a Guardian or learn the art of using two Lightsabers simultaneously to create an intricate web of damage as a Sentinel, the Advanced Class system in Star Wars: The Old Republic will help you customize your character. Check out the Jedi Knight section on the HoloNet for more information! Check out the media section to see a new video of the Jedi Knight in action, and download some never-before-seen screenshots!Weve also updated the Biography section with someone indispensable to the Jedi Knight Astromech T7-01! Visit the HoloNet to learn about this known associate from the Jedi Knight holorecord, or by accessing the T7-O1 biography.
So after much speculation with the release of the PC Gamer article they confirm in this weeks update about companion characters and advanced classes with an update to the Jedi Knight holonet page.  In addition to the Jedi Knight information we also received the latest web-comic issue 9 of the Blood of the Empire.

It’s the beginning of the end in the ninth issue of Blood of the Empire. Teneb Kel awakens from his vision with a new understanding of the danger he faces–but is there still time to stop Exal Kressh’s plot against the Emperor from coming to fruition? And meanwhile, what’s going on with Maggot and the Jedi Padawan…?
The Inhabitants page was also quietly updated to include the Miraluka (playable) species.  Could this also speculate that the other labeled “Humanoid” species in the Inhabitants section are also playable?  That would make the Gormak and Trandoshan two unannounced playable species!
