Pyranius Dookoria

"At this time of celebration of the Great Dawn, I welcome the Jedi Order to join the senate and bring about peace and justice to all. Some may regret this union into the political arena that we have maintained without any involvement from them, but I say that the time has come to put away any misconceptions and embrace their wisdom and unique ability into the governing of the Republic."

- Pyranius Dookoria during the Great Dawn Celebration address to the senate.

Pyranius Dookoria was the most well respected Supreme Chancellor of his day, from humble beginnings in the senate to being the firstSupreme Chancellor of the Galactic Republic to allow the Jedi Order to join in political affairs. He was often thought of as "a man of peace and reason". The Jedi considered him a great ally in the beginning, he was constantly approving actions they took to maintain peace and safety in the Galactic Republic. He also made other senators feel they were important to the stability of the galaxy as he tried to involve them all in any matter of state.

The Great Dawn Celebration was his creation as a means to boost the inter-planetary hope of peace and friendship. Some called it his greatest achievement in office, others called it the greatest failure in creating a new holiday a Supreme Chancellor could possible create. The real reason was that Pyranius wanted to end his career by making a mark for himself in history. Even though he was very well liked, he was in fact a very unremarkable, boring and selfish. When he finally stepped down, it was mired in controversy over the events that brought about The Hyperspace Wars.

Early life
Pyranius Dookoria was born on starwars:Alderaan before the Battle of Corbos, some of the Dark Jedi brethren tried to hide on his home world during this time. His parents (Soobius and Leiavana Dookoria) were mere council members of the government who created policies and diplomatic documents for the elected representatives.

His youth was normal, average and full of political influences. He tried to join the military when he grew to age, but his lack of skill and physical strength for combat showed he was meant for something less exciting. Having been around politics all his life, he enrolled into off world affairs and concentrated on becoming more pro-active in peaceful solutions to hostile worlds.

The Jedi visited his world many times, the Dark Jedi were still hiding amongst the Alderaan people and outer regions. Pyranius took it upon himself to help the Jedi locate and expose those who were influenced by them. An underlying corruption was occurring on his planet and he swore to end it by any means. Unknown to the Jedi, the young affairs minister was only doing this to get his foot hold into the Galactic Republic. Helping to drive off the Dark Jedi put him in good standing with the senate and other powerful elite.

By the time he had reached a full active representative of Alderaan, he soon created bonds with various worlds and organizations. He also was responsible for bringing in new systems to join the Republic, although that bit of history is questionable as the lack of documentation cannot confirm that. Having won several terms of office over his rivals, Pyranius Dookoria managed to hold on to being Supreme Chancellor till his retirement. He credited it to having no enemies, no bias judgements and maintaining a good standing with the Jedi Order.

Supreme Chancellor and Death
His time in office is full of historical uncertainty. While he was a great supporter of the Jedi Order and a man of peace, it is recorded that he had some involvement into the downfall of multiple senators in the Galactic Republic. He was questioned before a committee about the deaths and attack on the senate building from the Dark Jedi and bounty hunter, Ro'Jal. The documents from the committee findings are still sealed to this day, only the Jedi and Supreme Chancellor are allowed access to it. Before the controversy, Pyranius was a steady leader, he kept the peace for a lengthy span. Whatever anyone thinks of his character, he was a good man trying to keep order in the galaxy. His death is still a medical mystery to this day. There is no way of knowing how he died because there is no evidence of any ailments or foul play documented. Rumours say he was killed by the Sith upon their return, but this is of course impossible, because the former Chancellor died well before their arrival. In the Jedi archives, his death is marked by only one word: Unknown.

Legacy
A fair and just man. Perhaps the only legacy he truly deserved in history. He will not be remembered as the most significant Supreme Chancellor of the Old Republic, but he was the most liked one to exist in that era. His real legacy is actually marred from his link to the Hyperspace Wars. Not only did he help bring the Jedi Order into politics of the senate, but he also aided Senator Argus Pella Gorth in a matter that led to that war and the The Hundred Years of Darkness.

Talents
A man of the people and knew exactly how to make the senate conform to his wishes. A skilled politician and conversationalist, he had a knack for listening and solving problems of other systems, worlds and corporations. Some feared he might have been a Jedi himself or perhaps a "force sensitive' seeing how he could manipulate others so easily. There is no history in his entire family line of having the Force powers. He was, in essence, a very magnificent politician.
