    I was just watching TCW on Netflix and Ventrrss has a vision on Dathomir when she's being revived about how she learned of her force powers and was taken in by a Jedi and taught her how the ways of the force and even gave her a green LIGHTSABER (!) so this made me think about the possibilities of her having been a Jedi briefly since Count Dooku was also A Jedi and one of the "Fallen Twenty" Jedi...any thoughts ?

    She was trained by the Jedi Knight Ky Narec for approximately 10 years. Ventress stayed on the planet the whole time, assisting her master in fighting the Weequay warlords. Shortly after Narec's death, Ventress turned to the dark side for the first time. So whilst she learnt the ways of the Jedi, she never officially was one.

    Assaj Ventress a jedi? Doubtful being Count Dooku's apprentice. Although Count Dooku once was a Jedi and Quoi Gon Jin was his apprentice!!!

    Ventress he starts off as the padawan of a jedi knight but being unable to complete her training (due to his death)....then of course, she is a sith apprentice and subsequently a nightsister.

    But after the extermination of the nightsisters, she builds a yellow bladed lightsaber and is not affiliated to any side....so she is like Ahsoka in some respects.

    Yes she does...I have never seen her as “evil,” just a broken person with no real support from anyone until the nightsisters, and even then, she had that taken away

    >The episodes of Ahsoka's trial and her interactions with Ventress were good.

    Ventress was just doing what she was taught to do when she was a sith apprentice. She looked gifted as a padawan.

    Near the end of the Clone Wars, she encountered Quinlan Vos, a Jedi Master tasked with assassinating Count Dooku to end the war. Vos partnered with Ventress under the guise of a fellow bounty hunter but ultimately revealed his identity and purpose after the two fell in love. Ventress trained Vos in Nightsister culture and dark side skills to prepare for a strike against Dooku, but their attempt to kill the Count failed and she was forced to flee while he was taken into Confederate custody. She eventually worked with Kenobi and Skywalker to rescue Vos, but months of torture at Dooku’s hand had turned him to the dark side. Although Ventress sensed his fall, Vos refused to believe his own darkness and was again sent to kill Dooku by the Jedi Council. She joined him on this final mission, but it was met with failure when Vos gave himself fully to the dark side. Ventress reluctantly helped Vos and Dooku in fleeing from Jedi pursuit but refused to embrace the dark side once more. Instead, she sacrificed herself when Dooku attempted to kill Vos with Force lightning by absorbing the blast to protect her lover. Her death finally motivated Vos to renounce the dark side and she was honored for her sacrifice by the Jedi Council. Ventress' body was later laid to rest in the waters of her clan’s village on Dathomir.
