Jedi Order (Star Tards)

The Jedi Order is an ancient group of monastic warriors powerful in the light side of The Force. For thousands of years, it was the duty of the Jedi to maintain peace, order, and justice in the Galaxy, and too keep it safe from the Jedi's age-old nemesis: the Sith.

The Jedi were a powerful presence during the reign of the United Galactic Republic, but was fored into hiding when the Sith returned and created the Eeeevil Empire. the Jedi Academy, which had trained all of the Jedi in teh Order for centuries, was forced underground as well, becoming the official headquarters for the new Jedi Order in Exile. From that point on, the Academy became extremely selective in its admissions process (rejecting many applicants, most famously Nibira Serpo, who was rejected six times), but at the same time rutheless in its search for the supposed "Chosen One" meant to rid the Galaxy of the Dark Side of the Force.
