nonono a dark jedi outcast. kindof like kyle katarn but so much more badass than kyle, and i wouldnt be no sissy and turn to the light side, darkside is where its at.
if you think about it mandolorian comando armor is actually realy flexible. Plus mandolorian armor is supossedly able to block lightsaber attacks. i wouldnt ware the hemet unless i was hunting down a bounty, but i would have a black jedi robe over top of the armor so no one would notice it.
Mandelorian armor is heavy, it may be able to block attacks but it will restrict your movements. Mandelorians didn't care for that because they couldn't move as fast as a Jedi anyways so the armor would protect them in a fight.
Echani didn't wear armor because they were all about moving fast, some people say they had Jedi like reflexes and could move faster then even some Jedi could.
Being able to block an attack is great, but against a Jedi you are going to need speed, otherwise you wouldn't even be able to hit them... A Jedi wearing armor is foolish, light is possible it offers more protection then a robe and still allows you to move really fast but heavy armor? It just makes everything harder and makes you move slower
