Jedi Order (Jedi Renaissance)

The Jedi Order was an ancient monastic peacekeeping organization unified by its belief and observance of the Force. The Jedi were the guardians of peace and justice in the galaxy, serving both the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems. Led by a series of administrative Councils, the Order grew over the millennia despite facing many trials, most often threats from the Sith Empire, wielders of the dark side of the Force. With membership spanning thousands of species and drawing from every world within the Republic and the Confederacy, the Order was at its height in the decades proceeding the Clone Wars and the defeat of their ancient nemesis, the Sith. Based on Ossus, the Jedi had academies on a multitude of worlds where Force-sensitives trained and studied the ways of the Force.

During several Great Schisms dissident Jedi broke away from the Order, leading to several wars including the, after which the fallen Jedi fled, and founded the Sith Empire. The Sith were eventually found by the Republic and their discovery led to the and a Sith. The Jedi on Coruscant, led by Jedi Guardian and Jedi Grand Master Memit Nadill, successfully defended the planet and defeated the Sith. Their dark side brethren wouldn't stay defeated for long, however, and during the next several thousand years many wars would be fought. A millennium after the, the s saw their chance and the weakened Republic. After the war the Jedi that had led the Republic's military, and, disappeared. When they returned it became clear they had turned to the dark side, and during the many Jedi died. During the the Order was left numbering less than one-hundred Jedi, until it was rebuilt by  and the remaining active Jedi. Over a millennium later, the galaxy was again engulfed in a between the Republic and the Sith. Led by Lord, the Jedi were able to regroup and push back the Sith, who eventually withdrew to the planet. After seven long battles on Ruusan, the Sith were defeated and presumed wiped out. managed to survive and reorganize the defeated. Though Darth Bane and the Sith Lords that followed in his footsteps remained hidden; they were patient. Millennia later they revealed themselves, determined to have their revenge.

At the height of a separatist crisis, the Republic was split in two and a war once again engulfed the galaxy. During the Clone Wars, the Republic's armies were once again led by the Jedi. During the war's first battle, nearly two hundred Jedi died before Grand Master Yoda and a clone army arrived to assist them. However, nobody expected that the Supreme Chancellor of the Republic was, in fact, a Sith Lord. The Jedi eventually learned the truth, striking down the Sith in a vicious fight for survival. Reinvigorated from their near destruction, the Order entered into a decades long renaissance which sparked a Golden Age of expansion, growth and a deeper understanding of the Force.

Tython and the Force Wars
Birthed in the turmoil of a Force storm the Jedi Order's ancient forerunners, the Je'daii, came into existence on the lush planet Tython in the Deep Core. The galaxy's wisest philosophers, priests, scientists, and warriors were brought to Tython by the Celestials circa 36,428 BrS aboard mysterious, pyramidal ships called Tho Yor to discuss their discoveries involving the enigmatic and mystical energy known as the Force. These people, known as Tythans, eventually came to identify as the Je'daii Order, a group of Force-sensitives determined to keep an internal Balance between the light side, or Ashla and the dark side, called Bogan. For millennia the Je'daii Order flourished on Tython, erecting great temples and monuments to the Force and remaining ever vigilant to the lures of both the light and the dark. Ultimately around 25,793 BrS a conflict arose between the Je'daii and the extrasystem army of the Infinite Empire. While the Empire's fleet was destroyed within the first year of the invasion, the Je'daii were thrown out of Balance and a conflict known as the {{Sw|Force Wars]] erupted between the Followers of Ashla and the Knights of Bogan. For a decade the Je'daii suffered a terrible civil war, losing brilliant scholars, brave warriors, and wise mystics to the violence. As temples collapsed and storms engulfed the world, the Je'daii were all but destroyed when a climatic battle decimated the planet's ecosystem and left the world nearly barren of all life. While a small group of Je'daii survived on the moons of Tython, the other survivors fled the planet on colony ships and moved beyond the Deep Core to seek out a new home. Reforming as the Jedi Order, this small group of Force-users took with them the last surviving text of the Je'daii's great wealth of knowledge and few artifacts from their past. Believing that they were given command over the Force in order to assist those in need, the Jedi wished to defeat those who used the dark side and vanquish all evil doers.

Early interactions with the Republic
"You must remember that there are over a hundred thousand inhabited worlds in the Republic, and there are now only a few thousand of us. Billions of beings have never seen a Jedi. Millions have never even heard of our Order. Or of the Force. When we do appear, we can be killers, but also healers. Thank the Force for that."

- Master Obi-Wan Kenobi to Padawan Anakin Skywalker

Traveling between the stars, the fledgling Jedi Order fled the Deep Core in favor of Wild Space, a wide swath of the galaxy which had yet to be explored. Discovering a verdant planet much like Tython had once been, the Jedi colonized the world and named it Ossus. Founding a new academy on the world the Jedi Order remained in seclusion on Ossus, devoting their time to the study of the Ashla and warning against the evils of Bogan. Having purposely distanced themselves from the newly-formed Galactic Republic, the Jedi Order welcomed members of other Force traditions to Ossus, merging their philosophies and assimilating many other groups into their fold. Carrying over traditions from the old Je'daii Forge, the Great Temple of Vur Tepe, the Jedi continued to craft durasteel blades as part of initiation ceremonies and imbue them with the Force. While these Force-imbued blades were the primary weapon of choice, the Jedi continued to work in secret to enhance the usability of a new weapon called the lightsaber. Building off of the Rakatan weapon called the Forcesaber, the Jedi hoped that through the study of the weapon they would be able to reproduce it without Rakatan technology. By 24,953 BBY the Jedi agreed to join the Republic, remaining isolated on Ossus but supporting the Republic's goal of galactic peace.

As the Order welcomed others to Ossus, the leaders of the Jedi began to be influenced by other thinkers who had been involved in galactic affairs much longer than they had. The most prominent influence was a group of Caamasi who preached the principles of justice laid forth by ; these teachings would lay the framework for the Jedi Order's view of galactic justice and their role as peacekeepers. At the same time, the Jedi High Council began to assert its authority over the members of the Order, limiting individuality and crafting several exclusionary regulations. Around this time a Kashi Mer exile named Xendor gained a large following on Ossus, taking counsel from a Steel Hand of Palawa named Arden Lyn and eventually breaking peacefully from the Order to found his own academy on Lettow. As the Order witnessed a surge in renunciates following Xendor, the High Council deemed the so called a heretical group which strayed dangerously close to studies of the Bogan and the outflow of students was deemed the. Pushing Xendor and his band of schismatics into open conflict, the Jedi Order quickly formed an army with which to crush the Legions of Lettow. Xendor attacked first, landing ships on Ossus before being repelled and driven into the core. Xendor attempted to spread propaganda about the Jedi throughout the Republic as the war broke out, warning against the Jedi and their guise as peacekeepers. The Republic saw through Xendor's attempts to discredit the strange monks from Ossus and so began aiding the Jedi in the war effort. As conflict erupted on Chandrila, Brentaal, Metellos and Coruscant itself, the war dragged on and on. Finally, Jedi Master managed to confront Xendor at the battle of Columus and slay the leader of the Legions. In the following months, the rest of the Legions of Lettow were routed and the Great Schism finally ended.

Despite their brief allegiance with the Republic during the Great Schism, the Order was seldom thought of in the greater galaxy since their abandonment of Tython. Because of this the Order's warnings of impending war went unheeded by the Republic government until the Tionese were on their doorstep. As the Tionese War erupted across the Perlemian Trade Route, the Order's attempts to divide Tionese allegiances were abandoned and the Jedi withdrew again to Ossus to avoid involvement in the war. From their ancient fortress world, the Jedi contemplated the war, struggling to see how they fit into the galactic crisis at hand. After a long internal debate, the Jedi High Council declared for the Republic and entered into service as commanders in the Republic Army to crush the Tionese threat. As the war was all but won, the Republic sterilized the planet Desevro in an event which horrified the Order. Meeting above the ruined world, the Jedi struck a deal with the Republic that, while they could not serve the government, they would establish a network of Watchmen to protect the Perlemian from the Tionese and Hutts from a series of fortress worlds including Ossus, Falang Minor, and Haashimut. When the war with the Tionese had been resolved, the Republic decided to disband its military and rely on sector- and system-based defense fleets, earning back the trust and allegiance of the Jedi Order.

The beginning of the Sith
In 11,987 BBY Republic Chancellor Pers'lya was assassinated and replaced by Chancellor Contispex I, a member of the Pius Dea faith. During his reign, the fanatical Chancellor began a series of crusades which would come in the form of war, purges, and genocide. Officially known as the Recusal, the Jedi Order declared itself independent from the Republic in 11,933 BBY and completely withdrew back to Ossus. Throughout the next millennium, the Jedi Order fought an internal struggle regarding the correct response to the insanity of the Contispex dynasty and the Pius Dea rule it had established. While the majority of the Order refused to fight against the very government it had protected for millennia, some Jedi served as Knights errant, taking the fight to the cultists without the permission of the High Council. Others declared for the Pius Dea, forming a splinter group called the Order of the Terrible Glare. It wasn't until the 11,100s BBY that the Order was approached by the Caamasi and were finally convinced to end their period of isolationism and intervene. The Jedi High Council joined with the in seeding the cathedral ships of the Pius Dea with a crippling virus, and plotting to arrest the current Chancellor. In a stunning move, a Jedi strike team boarded Chancellor Contispex XIX's flagship, the  and arrested him on war crime charges. In accordance to the terms set forth by the Jedi Order at the start of their involvement, the Jedi High Council suspended the Galactic Senate and placed Grand Master Biel Ductavis in the position of Supreme Chancellor.

A few generations later, the Jedi Order had returned to their peaceful ways on Ossus upon seeing the Republic make a full recovery from the Pius Dea Era. However in 7,000 BBY the Jedi suffered a Second Great Schism, resulting in a time known to history as the Hundred-Year Darkness. The schism stemmed from the Order's reaction to a group of heretical Jedi experimenting with forbidden alchemy. The monstrosities which arose were deemed abominations to the Force by the High Council and war was begun to end the practice of these dark arts. By this time the Order had managed to develop the lightsaber in a way in which it was useful in hand-to-hand combat. Used before as a siege weapon due to its massive power pack, the Order's scientists were able to create a transportable power pack which could be worn on the belt of the user. Crossing blades with the heretics, the Jedi Order finally saw the end of the conflict with the victory at the battle of Corbos in 6,900 BBY. There the Jedi Order arrested the twelve surviving Dark Jedi, led by High General Ajunta Pall, and banished them to Wild Space. Unknown to the Jedi, these Exiles would land on the planet Korriban, homeworld of the Sith species, and conquer the natives, deeming themselves the Dark Lords of the Sith. Shortly after settling on Korriban, a splinter group of exiles, led by Remulus Dreypa, returned to Republic space to enact vengeance, but were intercepted by a Jedi patrol. The Jedi pursued those Sith across the galaxy, until both factions crash-landed on the planet Kesh. After a period of fighting, the two factions made peace and formed a new organization called the Doomed, striving to achieve balance between the light and the dark sides of the force. Meanwhile, the Korriban Sith would eventually move their headquarters to Ziost where they would form the massive Sith Empire, an Order of dark side warriors who would dream of crushing their Jedi oppressors.

The Great Hyperspace War and aftermath
"The Republic has grown and expanded for many generations, encountering no worse than a few interplanetary squabbles and civil wars&hellip;but if we should confront the fabled Sith Empire, we will experience a war so great, so devastating&hellip;it can cross the fabric of hyperspace, a conflagration spanning the Galaxy&hellip;"

- Master

In 5,000 BBY an attack on the Koros system by the Sith Empire introduced the Republic and the Jedi Order to the Sith and sparked the beginning of the Great Hyperspace War. The battle began shortly after a Jedi Knight named Odan-Urr had a nightmarish vision of the death of Sith Lord Marka Ragnos, and the war against the Republic that it would cause. He traveled to Coruscant with Jedi Master Memit Nadill and Teta, the empress of Koros, to voice his concerns in front of the Galactic Senate, though they did not take him seriously, and took no action. Returning to Koros, Jedi Nadill, Odan-Urr and Urr's master Ooroo were present when a young convict named Jori Daragon burst into Teta's chambers, telling the Jedi that she had seen the great Sith Empire, and that they were on their way to attack the Republic. Nadill learned as much as he could about the Sith Empire, then traveled to Coruscant to rally the support of the Jedi Knights. The newly christened Dark Lord of the Sith, Naga Sadow, deployed his fleets to invade numerous Republic worlds simultaneously while he left his eye-shaped Sith Meditation Sphere near Primus Goluud and used Sith magic to create thousands of illusory soldiers, which made the Sith army seem far larger than it actually was. The Jedi Order played a huge role in the defense of Coruscant, with Memit Nadill leading a team of Jedi Knights, including Tuknatan and Sonam-Ha'ar. Meanwhile, another battle was raging on the planet of Kirrek, where Jedi Master Ooroo and his apprentice Odan-Urr were stationed. However, when Naga Sadow's concentration was broken, the illusory Sith forces disappeared and the Republic's forces' morale was bolstered. On Coruscant, the Jedi realized what had happened and launched a massive counterattack, easily defeating the Sith. The Republic also emerged victorious on Kirrek, however only at the expense of the death of Master Ooroo, who sacrificed his life in defeating a large force of Massassi warriors. With the Sith forces routed, Supreme Chancellor Pultimo ordered the sacking of Sith Space, liberating the Sith from the Dark Lords and ultimately dissolving the Empire.

In 4,400 BBY, the ambitious Padawan Freedon Nadd was denied Knighthood by his Jedi Masters. In an attempt to find out why this had happened, Nadd went to Jedi Master Matta Tremayne, who challenged him to prove to her that he was indeed a Jedi Knight. Nadd saw this as a threat and decided to attack and kill Tremayne. Furious at the Jedi Masters for making him kill his teacher, Nadd went looking for the Sith, because he felt that they were the only ones who would readily accept his apprenticeship and teach him about the Force. During his travels, Nadd discovered the Sith Lord Naga Sadow who was serving out his exile on Yavin 4. Awakening from his status chamber, Sadow trained Freedon Nadd in the ways of the dark side only to be killed by Nadd when his training was complete. Following Sadow's death, Nadd abandoned Yavin 4 in favor of Onderon, located outside Republic space, with hopes of rebuilding a stronger Sith Empire. After Freedon Nadd had made himself the leader of the capital city of Iziz, the Sith Lord began to exile all criminals from the city; some of whom managed to survive in the deadly jungles surrounding the city and organize into a tribe of hunter-gatherers. The world of Onderon suffered through the legacy of Nadd even after his death as a cult devoted to his memory, known as the Naddists, wreaked havoc on the people of the planet. When Jedi Master Arca Jeth attempted to move Freedon Nadd's remains to Onderon's moon Dxun the Naddists, led by Onderonian King Ommin, attacked and managed to capture Nadd's remains as well as Jeth himself. Ommin then fled to the city of Iziz. The Republic's army converged on the planet and attacked Iziz, but was too strong and devastated the city. After the battle, Freedon Nadd's remains were taken to Dxun and sealed in an armored tomb.

In 4,250 BBY the Jedi experienced a third Great Schism on Coruscant following Nadd's death. After a brief civil war on Coruscant, the surviving group of Dark Jedi retreated to the Vultar system, where they discovered that the planets of the system were artificial. The Dark Jedi could not control the huge Cosmic Turbine that powered the system and quickly annihilated themselves and the entire system.

The Great Sith War
"Exar was a Jedi who was corrupted by ghosts of the old Sith, or so they say. He attempted to conquer the Republic and create a new Golden Age of the Sith."

- Jolee Bindo

Over the generations, Ossus had continued to thrive as a Jedi fortress world, holding many treasures and knowledge in Odan-Urr's massive archives known as the Great Jedi Library. The Jedi High Council began to take a more active role in the operations of the Order, and Four Masters oversaw the construction of a massive Temple on Coruscant to house members of the Order responsible for working directly with Republic representatives. At the height of Ossus' heyday in 3,996 BBY, the talented and curious Jedi Exar Kun, having learned about the Golden Age of the Sith, traveled from Ossus to Dxun where he found the tomb of Freedon Nadd. The spirit of Nadd corrupted Kun and the young Jedi surrendered to the dark side of the Force. After first traveling to Korriban, Kun then went to Yavin's fourth moon and took over Naga Sadow's ancient fortresses, enslaving the Massassi race to further his ambitious plans. Destroying Nadd's spirit for the last time, Exar Kun staked his claim as the true heir to the ancient Sith legacy, which was thought to have been destroyed. When word of this unsettling turn of events reached the Jedi High Council, a conclave was called on Deneba to discuss the growing foothold of the Sith. During the conclave, the secret dark side society called the Krath attacked the Jedi with war droids. Led by Aleema and Satal Keto, the Krath were able to kill the legendary Master Arca Jeth, who died while saving his student Ulic Qel-Droma's life. When the Krath were repelled, the Jedi regrouped and returned to Ossus.

Seeking retribution for his masters death Qel'Droma planned an unsanctioned mission to infiltrate the Krath in an attempt to destroy them from within. The Krath, suspecting he was a spy, injected him with a Sith poison and eventually Qel'Droma fell to the dark side and became a Krath general. Concurrently Sith acolyte Exar Kun traveled to Cinnagar to find and destroy Ulic Qel-Droma. However, their duel was interrupted by the spirit of Marka Ragnos, who commanded them to stop fighting each other and form an alliance, declaring them Dark Lords of the Sith. United, the Dark Lords waged war on the Republic, luring young Jedi from Ossus and subverting them to the dark side while in a stunning move, Exar Kun raided the Great Jedi Library and stole the Dark Holocron after murdering the legendary Master Odan-Urr. Elsewhere, Qel-Droma defeated Mandalore the Indomitable, the leader of the Mandalorians, and with their leader defeated the Mandalorian Crusaders agreed to join the Sith.

Qel-Droma's Krath and Mandalorian forces laid siege to Coruscant in an all out attack at the heart of the Republic. Jedi forces on the capital were few as their temple remained as just a small hermitage but infighting between Qel-Droma and Aleema Keto allowed for the Republic to score a victory through the capture of Qel-Droma and the retreat of his forces. In the custody of the Republic, Qel-Droma was tried before the Galactic Senate on Coruscant for war crimes. During the hearing, Dark Lord Exar Kun walked into the Senate Hall and executed the Chancellor before a shocked audience and later struck down the wise Master Vodo-Siosk Baas. Freeing Qel-Droma, Kun contacted his acolytes within the Jedi Order to assassinate their former Masters in a successful pogrom which left many Jedi dead. At the culmination of their attack on the Order, the Sith Lords made the suns of the Cron Cluster go supernova using Naga Sadow's Sith flagship, which they had discovered on Yavin 4; the exploding stars sent a devastating shock wave through space directly towards Ossus. Aware of their impending doom, the Jedi desperately tried to save as many of the artifacts stored on the world while a mass evacuation took place. In a stunning move, Exar Kun and Ulic Qel-Droma arrived on Ossus as the Jedi scattered in an effort to loot the Great Jedi Library. In the upper levels, Master Ood Bnar buried several priceless artifacts just before the Sith arrived. As the Sith attempted to strike him down, Bnar called on the Force to transform his body into that of a tree, a technique which came natural to the Neti. Meanwhile Qel-Droma dueled his brother Cay and killed him in his anger. When confronted with the finality of his actions, Qel-Droma's will was shattered and was then cut off from the Force by the Jedi Nomi Sunrider. A broken shell, Qel-Droma surrendered to the Republic and was escorted off of Ossus as it was swept clean by the supernova's shock wave.

With Qel-Droma in the hands of the Jedi Order, Exar Kun knew that his secret forces on Yavin 4 were in peril. To prevent his ultimate defeat, Kun committed a ritual which took the life from every Massassi on the planet to separate his spirit from his body and bind it to his temple. When Jedi forces arrived on the planet they unleashed a Force-assault on the world, trapping Kun's spirit within his temple indefinitely. With both Sith Lords defeated and the Mandalorian Crusaders defeated on Onderon, the Jedi Order had finally brought an end to the Great Sith War. With many great Masters dead and the fortress world of Ossus uninhabitable, Master Nomi Sunrider called a conclave on Exis Station to formally address the Order and begin the healing process. With the entire Order in attendance, Sunrider accepted the leadership role within the Order and set to rebuild the High Council. Additionally, the headquarters of the Jedi was to be relocated to Coruscant, with major expansions on the existing enclave there to accommodate the entire Order. Relics and texts which had been stored at Exis Station after the destruction of Ossus would be transported to Coruscant as a new Jedi Archives was compiled within the Temple. In addition to her work in rebuilding the Order, Master Sunrider ordered the creation of an underground city on the planet Yavin 4 to aide the recovery of the planet's ecology as well as to ensure that Kun's spirit never returned again.

The Mandalorian Wars
"It was not your ships or your men or your vaunted 'fight for freedom' that won this, the final battle of the war. It was by the actions of one person&mdash;the Jedi Revan&mdash;that you prevailed. Revan's strategies and tactics defeated the best of us. Even Mandalore himself was taken aback by the ferocity of his attacks, the tenacity of his defenses, and the subtlety of his plans. Revan fought us to a standstill and then began pushing us back. We didn't really have a chance."

- Canderous Ordo

As the Order settled in on Coruscant, the renowned Jedi Seer Krynda Draay saw it as her duty to prevent another war like the one that had just plagued the galaxy and taken so many lives, including that of her husband, Barrison Draay. Resigning from the Order and holing herself away within her late husband's massive Galactic City Estate, Draay began the length process of training an army of Seers without the knowledge of the High Council. As the Order grew complacent in the eyes of Draay, the respected Master created the Covenant, a shadowy organization devoted to spotting and dealing with any shatterpoints that could cause the Sith to emerge again. With her own son, Lucien Draay, as head of the First WatchCircle, Draay and her faithful retainer Haazen guided their movements on Taris as they sought a dangerous weapon of the Sith called the Muur Talisman.

The events of the Mandalorian Wars would begin the decline of the Jedi Order. They coincided with a vision seen by four Jedi Masters—the Consular members of the First WatchCircle of the Draay's Covenant—who saw visions of chaos in the Jedi Order and the Republic as well as signs that the responsible party could be one of their Padawans. The Masters decided to strike, but only succeeded in murdering four of their own Padawans who were near Knighthood. Their actions also caused massive civil disorder on Taris—which later made the planet easy prey for the Mandalorians—alienated Padawan Zayne Carrick from the Order, and inadvertently dissolved even their own group, being split up by the High Council and assigned to different postings around the galaxy. As each of the WatchCircle members began to die through mysterious circumstance which resembled their vision of impending doom, one of their number, Master Xamar, revealed the truth of the Covenant to the High Council and confessed his crime. As the High Council moved to secure the Draay Estate, it became clear that the venerated Master Krynda Draay was no longer in command; Haazen, her retainer and secret Sith Acolyte, had taken over and descended into madness. Sending members of the Covenant against the Jedi Temple and hijacking ships from the Republic Navy, Haazen ultimately and inadvertently destroyed the estate and himself through an orbital bombardment.

The Mandalorians, led by Mandalore the Ultimate, began to conquer planets that were left defenseless after the Sith War. By adding the weapons and technology of their victims to their own the Mandalorians soon built a large army, and their territory grew fast. The Republic's efforts to stop the Mandalorians were ineffective, and soon Mandalore took advantage of this weakness by directly attacking Republic space. The Jedi High Council refused to help the Republic, believing that caution was necessary and unwilling to bloody their hands after the last war. The Council's decision set poorly with many young Jedi who, under the leadership of Jedi Knight Revan and his friend Alek, openly defied the Council and leading the Republic's forces in battle. Revan used Mandalorian tactics against his enemies: he was willing to sacrifice one planet if it meant securing victory at a more important one. Under the leadership of Revan and Alek the Republic liberated many planets, and the final battle of the war was fought at Malachor V.

During the battle, Revan killed Mandalore in hand-to-hand combat and obliterated the remaining Mandalorian forces. The war with the Mandalorians was over. The Mandalorians had been defeated by a worthy opponent, and destroyed their armor and weapons as a sign of respect. While the Republic failed Revan and Alek, who went by the name Malak, as heroes the High Council was deeply enraged. Ordering all so called Revanchists back to the Coruscant Temple for judgement, the High Council's summons were only respected by General Meetra Surik. Appearing before the Council to await judgement, the Council stripped Surik of her titles and banished her for her role in the destruction of Malachor V. In addition, Jedi Master Kreia, Revan's former mentor, was exiled as the Council felt her 'gray' stance on the Force had led her students, most notably Revan, down the path of the dark side.

The Jedi Civil War
"The reason the Jedi Civil War was named such was because few in the galaxy can recognize the difference between the Sith and the Jedi. To them, they are both Jedi&mdash;with different philosophies."

- Mical

At the close of the Mandalorian Wars, the Jedi Revan and Malak mysteriously disappeared into the Unknown Regions, supposedly pursuing the last remnants of the Mandalorian fleet. Unknown to the Order or the High Council, the two Jedi had traced clues to the planet Dromund Kaas where they discovered that the Sith Empire lived on in secret and was ruled by the mysterious and incredibly powerful Sith Emperor. Unable to stop him, the Emperor reprogrammed the Jedi and sent them back to the Republic as the Sith Lords Darth Revan and Darth Malak. Returning to the Republic with their loyal followers in tow, the newly christened Sith Lords began to wage a second war, preying on a Republic already weakened by the Mandalorians and taking full advantage of the immense number of Jedi who were still willing to follow the pair.

This Jedi Civil War pitted masters against students, fathers against sons, and friends against best friends, making it one of the most emotionally powerful wars in galactic history. While the early stages of the war were indecisive, it soon became apparent that Revan's Sith armada was growing at a steady rate, and in a short time the Republic was overwhelmed with the seemingly limitless forces of the enemy. World after world fell to Revan's vast fleets and masterful strategies. Determined not to make the same mistakes they had in the Mandalorian Wars, the High Council devised a plan to eliminate the enemy at its source: Revan. During one fateful battle a small Jedi strike team led by Bastila Shan, a young Jedi Padawan with the remarkable gift of battle meditation, infiltrated Darth Revan's command ship to capture the Dark Lord. During the confrontation, Darth Malak, who was stationed aboard a different ship, realized that Revan could be easily defeated and that he could then assume the title of Dark Lord of the Sith, fired upon his own master's vessel in the hope of killing both Revan and the Jedi fighting him. The Jedi managed to escape with Revan's body, but Malak had achieved a crucial victory, for he was now the Dark Lord of the Sith and commander of the entire Sith armada.

Malak continued to wage war against the Republic, relying exclusively on brute force as opposed to subtle strategies. Following the Sith tradition, he took an apprentice of his own: former Jedi Darth Bandon. As the situation for the Republic and the Jedi became more desperate, they began to rely more and more on the battle meditation of Bastila Shan to gain an advantage over the ever-growing Sith Empire. Consequently, Darth Malak began to target Jedi Shan specifically, hoping to crush the Republic's last chance of standing against his armies. During one battle in orbit above the world of Taris, Jedi Shan's vessel, the Endar Spire, was crippled beyond recovery, and the young Jedi was forced to evacuate to the planet below. As fate would have it, two other survivors eventually caught up with Jedi Shan on Taris: Carth Onasi, a decorated soldier and war hero of the Republic, and another lowly officer who Shan recently had transferred to her command. The key to the rest of the war, however, lay in the identity of this single, seemingly insignificant foot soldier.

Onasi and Shan continued to gain more companions, managed to escape the destruction of Taris, and fled to Dantooine's secret Jedi Enclave, where their third companion was inducted into the Order and they discovered the existence of the Star Forge. The Jedi Council commissioned their small band to seek out Star Maps from various planets in order to discover the location of the Star Forge, which they believed was the key to Malak's power. During their quest, the group encountered and defeated many Sith minions, including Darth Bandon. The biggest interruption to their mission was the groups capture by one of the Sith fleet's command ships. After a frantic escape attempt, Onasi, Shan, and the new Jedi Padawan encountered Darth Malak himself. This confrontation revealed a startling truth: that Darth Revan had not been killed, but had instead been rendered comatose by Malak's attack and saved by the Jedi, specifically Shan. The Jedi Council had inserted over his destroyed mind a new identity, that of a lowly officer who was now a Jedi Padawan. Darth Revan had been traveling with Shan and Onasi the entire time.

Upon escaping Malak and realizing his true identity, Revan was determined to complete his mission and destroy his old apprentice. Eventually, he and his companions discovered the location of the Star Forge and launched an attack in collaboration with the Republic against it. Revan managed to infiltrate the giant factory, which was the source of the Sith's limitless armada, and defeated his old apprentice Malak once and for all. Despite the victory over Malak and the apparent defeat of the Sith, the High Council and the Order in general kept Revan and his wife, Bastila Shan, at a distance. Regarded as outsiders, Revan and Shan remained outside of the walls of the Jedi Temple on Coruscant while an increasingly strained relationship with the Order wore on them. Revan, suffering from crippling Force visions, eventually left for the Unknown Regions in search of answers.

First Jedi Purge and aftermath
The Jedi Civil War took a huge toll on the Jedi and the Republic, leaving them incredibly vulnerable to attack. In the wake of the war, the High Council called a conclave on the planet Katarr to regroup and refocus the Order. It was at this conclave that Darth Nihilus, a member of the Sith Triumvirate, attacked the world and wiped all life from the planet's surface. The attack on the conclave would see the near-destruction and death of the Order, with all but a hundred individual Jedi surviving throughout the galaxy. Immediately after, Triumvir Darth Sion committed his legions of Sith assassins to hunting down the surviving Jedi in the first Jedi Purge. Realizing that the threat was greater when Jedi gathered in numbers, the surviving members of the High Council disbanded the Order, with the remaining Jedi Masters going into hiding on planets across the galaxy in the hopes that this would allow them to discover the true origins of the new Sith threat without endangering everyone around them. The Jedi Temple on Coruscant was completely abandoned, and the badly damaged Jedi Enclave on Dantooine was left nothing but a hollow shell.

A former Jedi, Meetra Surik, also known as the Jedi Exile who had been cut off from the Force and exiled by the High Council years earlier, sought out the remaining Councilors who were in hiding, in an attempt to form a group to defeat the threat of the Sith Triumvirate, who were threatening to annihilate the Jedi completely. As she traveled the galaxy in search of the hidden Jedi, Surik trained several of her companions in the ways of the Force. She found Vrook Lamar on Dantooine, Zez-Kai Ell on Nar Shaddaa and Kavar on Onderon. The three former Councilors then met with Surik once again in the rebuilt Jedi Enclave on Dantooine. They decided to once again exile her, as well as sever her completely from the Force, as they felt she was a threat to all living beings around her. As they attempted to carry out their plan, Kreia, Surik's mentor, killed them, and after revealing herself as the third Sith Lord, Darth Traya, she left Surik on Dantooine. Surik's revival corresponded with the Sith attack on the Republic, and she traveled to Telos IV to fight the Sith Lord Darth Nihilus. Surik defeated Nihilus on his flagship above Telos, before traveling to Malachor V to kill Darths Traya and Sion, the two remaining Sith Lords.

Eventually, the group of individuals Surik trained, known as the Lost Jedi, would, as Darth Traya prophesied, come together to re-establish another Jedi Order. As the Order was slowly reformed, Surik was able to convince Masters Shan and Atris to return to Coruscant and the abandoned Jedi Temple there and slowly rebuild. Training a new generation of Jedi, Surik reestablished the High Council with the assistance of her companions from the war and the Order and the Galactic Republic began the long, slow process of rebuilding. Within time, Surik saw the Jedi Order flourish once more, but was haunted by reoccurring dreams and a beckoning from beyond known space. Leaving the Republic and the Order behind, Surik departed Coruscant to search for Master Revan and the darkness he had sought to find beyond the galactic rim.

Resurgence of the Sith Empire
"Our time has come. For 300 years, we prepared. We grew stronger. While you rested in your cradle of power, believing your people were safe&hellip; protected. You were trusted to lead the Republic but you were deceived, as our powers over the dark side had blinded you. You assumed no force could challenge you and now&hellip; finally&hellip; we have returned."

- Darth Malgus

Great Galactic War
"The Great Galactic War dragged on for decades. Thousands of Jedi and Sith were slain. Countless star systems were ravaged."

- Jedi Master Gnost-Dural

The Republic and the Order had thought that the Sith Empire had been completely destroyed in the aftermath of the Great Hyperspace War; unknown to them a single Sith Lord managed to escape Chancellor Pultimo's attack on Korriban and established himself as the new Sith Emperor and continued the rule of the Sith Empire in the Unknown Regions. It was this Emperor who had corrupted Revan and Malak, the same Emperor who would imprison Revan for a second time after his return to Dromuund Kaas following the Jedi Civil War. In 3,681 BBY the Sith Empire came out of hiding and attacked the Republic and the Jedi, taking both by complete surprise. Unknown to the Republic, the Sith had already infiltrated several planetary governments, the Republic and the Order itself, allowing it several victories. As Jedi and Republic forces fought back, the Mandalorians, under the leader ship of Mandalore the Lesser, entered the conflict on the side of the Empire. The war would eventually last 28 standard years. In 3,653 BBY with peace talks commencing on Alderaan, the Sith launched a surprise attack on Coruscant, devastating the planet, killing the Chancellor and nearly destroying the Jedi Temple. With Coruscant in their hands, the Sith presented the Republic with the Treaty of Coruscant. The Treaty sued for peace but was heavily biased towards the Sith, demanding that the Republic turn over several long time territories and Republic forces had to withdraw from current battlefields leaving the planets defenseless to Imperial occupation. With little choice, the Republic accepted ending the Great War.

The Cold War
The Cold War officially was only border skirmishes between rogue elements of the Republic and Sith Empire, yet all across the galaxy both sides were supporting coups, revolutions, assassinations and even all out civil war. Without the Temple on Coruscant, the Order drifted homeless for a short period before Jedi Knight Satele Shan returned from the Deep Core with coordinates to the lost planet Tython. As Jedi scouts prepared the planet for recolonization, the Order dealt with the loss of Grand Master Zym over the ruins of the Coruscant Temple and the defection of Master Dar'Nala to terrorism. As a new Temple emerged on Tython, the Jedi resettled their ancient homeworld and began to slowly rebuild. As Shan was appointed Grand Master, Jedi explored Tython forests and ruins, reconnecting with their roots and growing stronger in the Force. Elsewhere in the Republic, planets like Balmorra and Alderaan were major battlegrounds where both sides suffered from treaty-breaking, but unofficial backing; all across the galaxy the Great Galactic War was igniting a second time.

Several new heroes emerged in this time period; these heroes were both of the Republic and the Sith Empire, and they grew more powerful and significant over time, eventually becoming the main fighters for their respective sides, as many significant ones fell in the Cold War. Members of the Jedi Order who remained on Coruscant made up a special Jedi delegation within the Senate, while others tried to protect the ruins of the Jedi Temple and protect any of its remaining treasures. The new heroes which emerged were believed to be the ones that would lead the Republic and Sith Empire to an all-out war that would be more devastating and dangerous than any other in the past.

A more sinister threat
"We are at war! The Dark Council has placed me in charge and battles are being waged across the galaxy."

- Darth Baras

The sham known as the Cold War came to an inevitable end and the Galactic War erupted on galactic scale, but was even more brutal than any other war in the past. The Jedi Order quickly mobilized to compete with the Sith Empire and various third parties, all of whom where at their peak and with many mighty heroes. Engaging each other in full-scale war once again, Sith and Republic forces clashed, while the constant specter of betrayal loomed over everyone. Yet despite the copious amounts of traitors and third parties, they did little to stop the Republic and Empire from continuing their war. The Great War saw some of the Republic and Empire's bravest and mightiest heroes emerge, and this only created more tension and alarm, adding to the chaos already generated by the Great War.

The immense clash would lead to the defeat of various third parties and their leaders, such as Darth Malgus, leader of his own rebellion, and Bouris Ulgo, leader of House of Ulgo of Alderaan. The Dread Masters of the Sith Empire would be freed, and the destructive nature of this new war would radiate throughout the galaxy, slowly ravaging it.

The New Sith Wars
The horrors of the Old Sith Wars and the near extinction of the Jedi Order that had resulted from the conflict were remembered in the Republic for generations. Few could have guessed, however, that a much larger conflict would soon engulf the galaxy. From within the Order's ranks Jedi Master Phanius, one of the Order's brightest members, became entranced with the forbidden knowledge of the Sith and, defying the High Council, absconded into deep space with a Sith holocron stolen from the Jedi Archives. Phanius took up the long vacant title of Dark Lord of the Sith as well as a new name and identity: Darth Ruin. In the ensuing years, Ruin gathered together a large number of dark side followers and surviving Sith clans and founded the New Sith Empire. With this army Ruin planned to bring the Republic, and the Jedi who served it, to their knees. Beginning what would be a thousand year war, Ruin's empire quickly became fractured, tearing down the Republic and the Jedi Order while ravaging itself from the inside out. The Order was plagued by ineffectual leadership throughout the conflict, constantly held back by a politically-minded High Council. To counter the poor management of Order, several Jedi left Coruscant to establish baronies and kingdoms on the Rim, protecting their subjects while demanding fealty and military service. These so-called Jedi Lords established a loose confederation under the guidance of a Jedi Grand Council made up of the most powerful Lords, waging wars against the Sith Empire and killing any Sith minions who intruded on Jedi space.

In 1,010 BBY975 BrS]], the High Council raised their protege Skere Kaan to the rank of Master, dispatching him into the galaxy to cripple the Sith Empire; the High Council did this despite their knowledge of Kaan's extremist views and his belief that the Order and the Republic were responsible for the state of the galaxy. Taking with him a group of like-minded Jedi, Kaan declared himself Dark Lord and organized a Brotherhood of Darkness, issuing a warning to all surviving Sith: join the Brotherhood and bend the knee or die. Holding true to his promise of death to all who did not join the Brotherhood, the High Council sent their congratulations to Kaan for his swift work of the worst of the Sith Lords. Kaan openly mocked the Order and the thanks, declaring war on them and promising to burn their Temple to the ground. Furious at the Council ineptitude, Lord Hoth rallied the banners of those loyal to him and raised a great host called the Army of Light. Gaining the support of the last Grand Council of the Jedi and every last lord, Hoth harried the Brotherhood along its flank until the Army of Light had enough practice at warfare to strike at the Brotherhood's heart. Meeting the Brotherhood in open combat during a series of campaigns at the planet Ruusan, the conflict ground on for seven fierce battles costing many lives on both sides. At the conclusion of the seventh battle, Lord Kaan—near defeat and driven insane by the power of the dark side—unleashed the horrors of the thought bomb in a cave system, engulfing every single Force-user on the world.

The New Sith Wars were over. The Jedi Order had survived once again despite the deaths of nearly every member of the Army of Light on Ruusan, and the Sith were presumed wiped out to the last individual. One, however, had survived: Darth Bane. He and his successors would hide from the Republic and the Jedi, planning revenge in utter secrecy under the Rule of Two.

Ruusan Reformation
With the Sith presumed extinct, the Jedi believed that they had at last forged a long-lasting peace in the galaxy. With the Ruusan Reformation passing the Senate and receiving the High Council's blessings, both the Jedi Order and the Republic renounced militarism, disbanding their vast armies and navies. From that point on, the galaxy would rely on smaller Planetary Security Forces and the Judicial Department to help the Jedi keep the peace.

The wave of change sweeping the Republic enabled forward-thinking Jedi to make vast strides in the Order' setup during the first years of peace. Under the leadership of Grand Master Fae Coven, the Jedi High Council became more influential, and many loose rules were codified. Adults were banned from entering into the Order after Ruusan proved them to be too volatile and susceptible to the dark side's sway. They would renounce all ties to the outside world—to wealth, material possessions, and even family. Training would now be undertaken on a strict one-to-one basis and centralized on Coruscant. With the far-flung academies of the past, the temptation of delving into forbidden knowledge was considered too great for members of the order. Many far-flung, satellite training facilities were closed and the Temple on Coruscant became the heart of the Order. The Trials of Knighthood were firmly put in place to ensure all Knights were tested on a fair and equal scale. Coven was also ensured that her changes would be known by every Jedi by drafting and putting into circulation throughout the Order personal copies of The Jedi Path: A Manual for Students of the Force, a guidebook given to each and every member of the Order.

Along with Master Coven's quest to set the Order on a firm footing, Caretaker of First Knowledge Restelly Quist and the other members of the Council of First Knowledge were determined to completely eradicate all memory of the Sith to ensure they never returned. Dispatching Shadows to find and locate all Sith artifacts, relics, and even history books detailing past Jedi-Sith conflicts; the Order essentially erased all memory of the Sith in under five decades.

A phantom menace
"At last we will reveal ourselves to the Jedi. At last we will have revenge."

- Darth Maul

Over the ensuing millennium, the Jedi Order enjoyed a Golden Age in which training flourished and the Galactic Republic enjoyed peace. Following the disaster on Almas involving fallen Padawan Kibh Jeen, the Order was made aware that a Sith had survived Ruusan and a new Rule of Two had been established. Believing the Sith to be a minor threat, it wasn't until the machinations of Darth Tenebrous and his apprentice Darth Plagueis in the Fobosi District that the Jedi Order felt the dark side of the Force on Coruscant for the first time in nearly one thousand years. Under Darth Plagueis, the Sith grew emboldened and set their insidious plan in motion against the Jedi and the Republic. Working from the shadows, Plagueis' apprentice Darth Sidious revived the Dark Masters in the Outer Rim, a group of Sith that had been imprisoned since the New Sith Wars. Following the interception of a coded message from the long-since forgotten Command Center on, the Jedi High Council was made aware of the threat of the Dark Masters, though assumed the group to be upstart dark side scholars and warriors. At the counsel of Master, the High Council secretly dispatched an army of Jedi Shadows to Ansion to investigate the growing threat out on the Outer Rim. Upon arrival at Ansion, the Jedi discovered that the threat was much greater than the High Council realized, and the host of the Dark Masters threatened to invade several systems and establish a strangle hold on several Republic trading routes. Determined to stop them, the Shadows were forced to use all of their skills to survive without the aid of the Republic as the Dark Masters plunged regions of space into communications black out. Battling for four long years against an army that could not be diminished, the war seemed to be one of attrition against the Jedi. Spread thin across many worlds, the Jedi appeared to be defeated after the death of ancient Jedi Master Zordon, but ultimately his death caused a wave of pure Force energy to wash across the embroiled worlds and destroy the armies of the Dark Masters. With the threat vanquished, the Jedi Shadows limped home, their numbers thinned and their deeds unnoticed by the rest of the Order and the galaxy at large. Blaming the communications disruption on antiquated systems and the fighting on local gangs and warlords, the Order ensured that mention of the Sith never reached the public domain. Unwittingly, the Order played into the plans of the Sith. While the Sith host was formidable, Darth Plagueis' vision of a reborn Sith Empire had no room for ancient Sith stuck in the past. Additionally, the Sith's plan was twofold. The instability the fighting caused in the Rim sectors, coupled with the secrecy around the events ensured that faith in the Jedi and the Republic would waver.

Within the following decades, the Order became more and more disillusioned as the dark side of the Force continued to cloud their vision. The Order failed to sense the betrayal of one of their former members: the esteemed Jedi Master-turned Senator Dooku who fell under the sway of the Dark Lords of the Sith. Secretly contacting members of the Trade Federation, Darth Sidious saw to it that Nute Gunray was made Viceroy of the Federation by using a special battle droid to kill the members of the Federation Ruling Council. Along with a series of other devious plots, Sidious was responsible for manipulating Gunray to show the Republic that they could not bully him with trade embargoes by blockading the remote planet of Naboo. The Supreme Chancellor dispatched Master Qui-Gon Jinn and his apprentice, Obi-Wan Kenobi, to negotiate a Trade Federation withdrawal. Meanwhile in the Senate, Senator Dooku became a voice for the industrialist seats and members of the Rim Faction that felt that the Republic had abandoned them. Growing resentment for Chancellor Valorum and his lackluster politic performance, and for the Jedi Order which appeared to be meddlesome and withdrawn from the people of the Republic, saw Dooku's political weight grow. When the Trade Federation launched their blockade of Naboo, the Senate was divided on how to react: military might to assert the Republic's dominance over the Federation, or succession from a government that sought to stymied businesses and corporations from collecting their fair share. When Sidious' apprentice, Darth Maul murdered the planet's Queen, the Senate overwhelmingly elected Naboo's own Senator Palpatine to the Chancellorship after ousting Valorum. Watching from the sidelines, the Order was wary of Palpatine's moves of aggression against the Federation, and feared all-out warfare was on the horizon. While the Federation as driven off of Naboo, Dooku withdrew from the Senate and formed the Confederacy of Independent Systems to contest the Republic's corruption. Declaring war, Chancellor Palpatine resisted raising a federal army, relying on planetary defense fleets to protect individual worlds. For four long years the Republic fought small skirmishes across the Outer Rim as the Jedi Order offered military assistance and counsel. When the Chancellor accepted the clone army mysteriously grown by the Kaminoans in Year 7, the Jedi had no choice but to lead the Grand Army to war against the growing Separatist threat.

The Clone Wars
"Victory? Victory, you say? Master Obi-Wan, not victory. The shroud of the dark side has fallen. Begun, the Clone War has."

- Master Yoda after the Battle of Geonosis As the Clone Wars ravaged the galaxy, the Order sustained terrible losses as its members died on the fields of battle or in space above worlds they hoped to protect. While the clones fought valiantly against the droid terrors of the Confederacy, the Jedi were evenly matched against the Dark Acolytes of the Shadow Collective, warriors trained in the ways of the Force by their Sith Masters. Leading the Collective was Darth Maul, the only Sith visible to the Order. Believing him to be a lone agent, the Order was shocked to discover that Confederate Head of State Dooku was actually a Sith Lord too. Uncovering the truth at the Battle of Geonosis, the Order laid waste to the Confederacy's main droid foundry and forced Dooku into revealing himself as Darth Tyranus. Following this revelation, the Clone Wars escalated further as Tyranus unleashed the full power of the Confederate Army on undefended Republic worlds. As more and more Jedi Generals lost their lives, more dissidents turned their cloaks and joined the Shadow Collective. While Tyranus was the worst of the Jedi traitors, Sora Bulq, Pong Krell, and Quinlan Vos were terrible reminders that the Jedi were not infallible. Four months after Geonosis, the Jedi Order faced their biggest threat in the war against the Confederacy: General Grievous. On Hypori, Grievous was revealed to the Republic and the Order as a killing machine, slaying several Jedi and wounding several other high ranking members of the Order. On Jabiim, the Jedi suffered heavy losses, and although they managed to evacuate the planet, all except one of the Padawan Pack, a group of Padawans orphaned when their Masters either were killed or disappeared, perished. The sole survivor was the famed Jedi Knight and war hero Anakin Skywalker, whose flame seemed inextinguishable.

Towards the end of the war, the Separatists retreated from many of their bases in the Core Worlds and the Colonies, to Fortress worlds in the Mid and Outer Rim, after being defeated by the Republic in a series of battles. This boosted the morale of the Republic, and Chancellor Palpatine and the Jedi deployed almost every fleet available to CIS worlds in the Outer Rim, laying siege to the Separatist strongholds in an attempt to force the Confederacy to surrender; however, the Sieges left many senior Jedi dead. On Boz Pity, the Order lost several members but were able to remove Asajj Ventress from the war while Sora Bulq and his Morgukai Shadow Army were defeated on Saleucami. The citizens of the Core were led to believe that the end of the war was near, and that the Confederacy would be brought to justice in the near future. In truth, the Sieges were the work of Darth Sidious, intended to lure forces away from Coruscant

In 19 BBY, with most of the Republic's army and the Jedi fighting in the Outer Rim Sieges, the Separatist fleet, led by Grievous and Dooku, launched a week-long siege against Coruscant. Thousands of Vulture droids and Droid tri-fighters rained down on the capital, and Confederacy C-9979 landing craft unleashed hundreds of millions of battle droids and tank droids on the capital's streets, causing much damage to lives and property. In response, the Republic deployed its clone forces against the CIS droids. With the battle raging on in space, Grievous and his IG-100 MagnaGuards kidnapped the Supreme Chancellor, after defeating several Jedi and wounding Council member Shaak Ti. Grievous then transported Palpatine to his flagship, the Invisible Hand. Several Jedi piloting starfighters attempted to intercept Grievous on his way to the flagship, but they failed. After realizing that they had been lured away from Coruscant, Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi returned from Tythe to join in the attempt to rescue Palpatine, who was being held aboard Grievous' flagship, the Invisible Hand. Although Dooku injured Kenobi, Skywalker disarmed him, and at the Chancellor's command, the young Jedi Knight ruthlessly beheaded the Dark Lord, and released Palpatine, dealing a tremendous blow to the Confederacy.

Igniting a fire
"In the name of the Galactic Senate of the Republic, you're under arrest, Chancellor." "Are you threatening me, Master Jedi?" "The Senate will decide your fate." "I am the Senate!" "Not yet." "It's treason then."

- Mace Windu and Palpatine

In the aftermath of the and the death of General Grievous on, the High Council learned from Anakin Skywalker that Supreme Chancellor Palpatine was in fact Darth Sidious, the Dark Lord of the Sith, and had been responsible for the war to begin with. Shocked by this knowledge, Master Mace Windu led a group of Jedi Masters to arrest Sidious and take control of the Senate until new leadership could arrive. Alerting Master Yoda on Kashyyyk as to his mission, Windu and three High Councilors stormed the Chancellor's office in the Senate district. Upon entering the suite of offices, Darth Sidious quickly slew Masters Saesee Tiin, Kit Fisto and Agen Kolar before engaging Windu in a fierce duel to the death. Exerting all of his skill and knowledge of the Force, Windu overpowered the Sith Lord and disarmed him. Beating back the Sith lightning Sidious attacked with, Windu watched warily as Jedi Skywalker entered the office and approached the window where he stood over top the Sith Lord. While combating the lightning strikes, Windu urged Skywalker to help him and strike down the Sith Lord and end the war; all the while Sidious goaded young Skywalker into believing that Windu was attacking a weak old man. Skywalker made his decision and attacked Windu with his lightsaber but was deftly rebuffed, giving Windu enough time to send his lightsaber through Sidious' heart, killing him. As the balance in the Force shifted violently, Skywalker tackled Windu and the pair fell through the open window to a landing platform below. Filled with rage over losing the knowledge Sidious had promised him, Skywalker attacked Windu in a fierce duel which ultimately ended with the superior skill of Master Windu rendering Skywalker catatonic.

With Skywalker no longer a threat and Sidious dead, Windu realized quick action was needed to save the Republic and the Order. Using his beacon device, Windu issued an order to all Jedi in the field to avoid contact with Republic personnel for fear that the Sith plot ran deep in the military and report beck to Coruscant as soon as possible. Closing down the Chancellor's suite as he awaited the arrival of Jedi tech experts and investigators, Windu began to compile a list of all of the Chancellor's strongest supporters and allies. When a contingent of Jedi Shadows arrived at the suite he dispatched them to arrest those politicians, aides and associates of the Chancellor who may have been involved in the conspiracy to destroy the Republic and the Order. As the investigations took off, Windu contacted Senator Bail Organa and Admiral Wilhuff Tarkin and named them members of the new Republic Triumvirate to lead the Republic out of such a treacherous situation. Forming the temporary government with a representative from the Order, the Senate and the Grand Army, Windu hoped to gain legitimacy in the eyes of the public and ensure a smooth transition out of war. By the fifth day of the Triumvirate's reign, the Republic had successfully disabled the Confederacy's droid army and arrested their war council on Mustafar, calling for a ceasefire with the Confederate Parliament. Meanwhile, Jedi investigators were searching out Sidious' contacts and seizing his assets, with a large group of Jedi and Republic forces blockading the world of Byss and releasing prisoners held there by the Sith's minions.

As the battlefields quieted and more and more Jedi poured into the Jedi Temple, the remnants of the Jedi High Council gathered to discuss the future of the Order. Because of Master Windu's duties to the Triumvirate he would be unable to fulfill his role on the Council; to top this, Grand Master Yoda felt that his time as leader of the Order had resulted in the near destruction of the Order and imposed exile upon himself. In need of filling six seats to replace those Jedi who had died in the Chancellor's office, Skywalker, Triumvir Windu and the departing Grand Master, the High Council appointed Tomac Moorcé to the position of Grand Master and followed his guidance in picking new members. Ten days after the Sith's defeat, Moorcé led the Council in a secret conference for five days, going over reform measures and expansive ideas on the new direction of the Order. On the sixth day, all Jedi were summoned to the Great Hall of the Temple to participate in the historic Conclave where Moorcé's new appointment was announced and he would first greet the entire assembled Order. Within his speech, Moorcé outlined three major changes: first, the Order would no longer serve a government, but work with all governments to fulfill the will of the Force. Secondly, the Order would move its base of operations to the historic Jedi fortress worlds of Ossus and Tython to better connect with their roots and assert autonomy. Thirdly, the Jedi would embrace a view of the Force which encouraged a focus on the Balance, as well as opening its doors to other Force traditions so as to ensure all Forceful individuals had a place in the Order.

The last stand of the Sith
During the ensuing years, the Order grew in size and strength as more and more star systems allowed the Order to take Forceful children from their planets to train as Jedi. Nineteen years after the death of Darth Sidious, a new threat arose which promised to destroy the Republic if not controlled effectively. Unleashed on the distant moon, Yavin IV, was the restless spirit of the long-dead Sith Lord Exar Kun. Capable of raising entire armies from the wilderness of the moon, Kun and his Massassi warriors threatened to leave the confines of the moon and spread like a plague across the galaxy. While Kun's spirit was confined to his Temple, his call was felt by five Force-sensitives who sought him out through the compulsion of the dark side. Arriving on the world, these five Humans were imbued with the strength and power of Kun's dark side spirit and were sent out into the galaxy to decimate the Republic and return with the body of the Supreme Chancellor and the Order's Grand Master so that the Sith could possess both and conquer the galaxy. Before the ships could launch from the moon, the Order had received word of the imminent attack and the High Council dispatched a strike team to crush the Sith forces before the plan could be carried out. Arriving in the system before the Sith ships jumped to hyperspace, the Jedi mustered a fighting force from both the Republic and the Confederacy which quickly engaged the Massassi-manned starships.

Taking a ship down to the moon, Moorcé and his strike team fought their way into the Temple proper before heading straight to the burial chamber to confront Kun's spirit. Accompanied by Masters Ki-Adi-Mundi and Plo Koon, Moorcé left Padawans Marek and Carlye in the exterior chamber to defend against the onslaught of Massassi defenders. Upon entering Kun's chambers Massassi warrior attacked Mundi and Koon, decapitating them as Grand Master Moorcé strode forward unabated to confront the spirit of Kun. Requesting that Kun willingly let go of the dark side and become one with the Force, Moorcé met the specter's refusal with a show of force. Brandishing his staff and lightsaber, Moorcé unleashed a wave of pure Force energy upon Kun's spirit, vanquishing it once and for all. With out their Master's mind to guide them the Massassi fled into the jungle and his five generals were killed simultaneously as a result of psychic backlash. As the Republic and the Confederacy recognized how severe the consequences of not backing the Jedi could have been at this critical juncture, both governments approved to resynchronize the galactic calender deeming the year of the Battle of Yavin Year 0 and thrusting full support to the Order's effort to destroy the Hutts and their criminal and slave empire.

The end of the Hutts
Having ensured that the Republic and the Confederacy now saw the Hutt Empire as a problem that could no longer be pacified or ignored, the Jedi High Council decided to strike at the Hutts in Year 43. The Jedi led armies attacked the fringe worlds of Hutt Space, quickly regaining old territory and pushing the lightly-defended borders back towards the central Bootana Hutta. Forcing a hard drive into the heart of Hutt Space, the Republic-Confederate forces were initially met in battle by the combined forces of the Zygerrian Slavers' Guild, the Thalassians, the markets of Orvax IV and the Karazak Slavers Cooperative. However, thanks to the foresight of the Jedi High Council, these slave rings were destroyed internally by slaves who had received weapons secretly smuggled to them by the Jedi. Crippling the bulk of the slavers' fleet, these slave revolts allowed the Republic-Confederate Army to penetrate further into Hutt Space.

Fearful that more uprisings may occur, the Hutt Council purchased a massive droid army off the Invisible Market from Vigo Lannik Racto, a member of Black Sun's elite. The Hutts, happy to call upon the Black Sun and the homeless Shadow Collective, made generals out of the Vigos, Lom Pyke, and several ranking members of Death Watch. While this seemed to be a major setback to the Republic-Confederate war effort, the Jedi High Council was secretly pleased that the Hutts had brought the Shadow Collective out of hiding; while the group had been chased out of the Mandalorian system decades ago, it continued to be a problem along the Outer Rim. Black Sun too was a continued annoyance, especially under the leadership of Prince Xizor and his insistence on remaining in the Core Worlds despite attempts to drive him and his thugs out. The Jedi were also invested in Lannik Racto's involvement; the Order had long ago bought Racto's compliance by promising him a pardon at the end of the war. In exchange for his life and his freedom to live out the rest of his days on Ossus, he promised to sell the Hutts assassin droids with faulty programming. In order to make the sale however, the droids needed to be free of a centralized droid brain. To make this work, the Vigo simply installed a fail safe program which would activate after receiving a set verbal command: "Execute Order 66." The order name, a defunct contingency code from the Republic military, was originally Darth Sidious' secret weapon against the Jedi Order; the Jedi Council found the infamous order's use to be a way to redeem it of the taint of the failed Sith plot.

As the war ground on, the Hutts surrounded themselves with the droids that had been mass-produced for them by Racto's benefactors in the Tion Hegemony. Jedi and military soldiers fought valiantly through Hutt Space, taking planet after planet though unable to strike at the Hutt Council's Palace Worlds. Despite the loss of Tatooine decades ago and the constant border wars, the Hutts had maintained most of their holdings until losing several planets in Year 43. As the skirmishes seemed to drag on into the following year, it wasn't until the third year that the Jedi pushed inward and took Nal Hutta, the "Glorious Jewel" of Hutt Space. Having fled deep into the Bootana Hutta months prior to the taking of their capital world, the Hutt Council was sealed off from the invaders for the time being. Decimating the Hutts' holdings on Nal Hutta, Republic and Confederate soldiers claimed the world for the Evocii people, the race who had long since been enslaved by the Hutts of Nal Hutta, originally called Evocar, the Evocii homeworld. With the Hutt Council withdrawn into the Bootana Hutta, or the Garden of Hutts, Hutt Space collapsed. Hutt warships and droids quickly retreated from their masters' former holdings to defend the throne worlds. The Hutts who remained outside the protected region of the Garden were arrested and tried; those found not guilty of slaving were ordered to make way for elections on longtime slave worlds. Those who were found guilty of slaving were stripped of their wealth and put to death. While the Jedi avoided these trials, the Grand Master did not personally object to the removal of the slavers as he believed that if allowed to regroup they would definitely pose a threat to any fledgling government attempting to establish itself. As the Jedi Service Corps and reconstruction organizations descended upon the newly freed systems, the Jedi and Galactic Armies regrouped to mount a final assault on Bootana Hutta. Moorcé understood that the cluster of star systems was the most heavily fortified area of the Hutt Holdings and would be the most difficult to take. Thankfully, when the Hutt Council withdrew within the Garden they brought with them their allies in Black Sun and the Shadow Collective. As the Jedi and the Galactic Armies began to lay siege to Mulatan and Gos Hutta, the Hutts fired back with all of their strength. While casualties existed in their ranks, the Jedi and their troops held strong, with Jedi High Councilors fighting on the front lines beside Confederate and Republic troops.

After nearly a year of fighting at the borders of the Bootana Hutta, the Jedi cracked into the Garden when Mulatan fell to the Jedi Order's might. The defense platforms and Hutt Cartel warrior ships were left in ruins surrounding the world; Death Watch generals were hunted down and killed while their troops scattered. Black Sun was nearly bankrupted and only five of its Vigos remained. The Shadow Collective, weakened severely after leading the frontal assault on the Jedi, slowly began to disengage itself from the fighting and fled silently into space with its few surviving members. The Hutt Council, each of its members remaining separate on their throne world, cowered in their palaces behind lines and lines of assassin droids. As Jedi and Galactic troops flooded the Garden, the Hutts were confused as the Jedi rushed first to the aid of the slaves on the market planet of Bootana Shagwell. In one final move, the Hutt Council prepared to launch an assault on the planet and kill off the slaves and the Jedi in one final blow. During the Council meeting, Grand Master Moorcé infiltrated the palace of Gorga the Hutt on his throne world of Kor Desilijic. While the holoconference was in session, Gorga ordered his assassin droids to open fire on the Grand Master. As they raised their weapons however, Moorcé shouted out the phrase "Execute Order 66" and the droids quickly reversed their position and slaughtered Gorga. As the holoconference comm was still open, the droids surrounding the other Hutt kajidii obeyed the verbal command as well, slaying the Hutt Council in one brief instant. By the hand of the Grand Master, the final threat had been removed, and the war concluded. When the fighting ended in Year 47, the Jedi remaining long enough to ensure the former slave species could hold fair elections and establish the government of their choosing. Jedi and diplomats from both the Republic and the Confederacy assisted in the process, with the Order ensuring that new planetary constitutions outlawed slavery and declared proudly universal rights of sentients. Petitioning planets were given representation in the Galactic Senate or the Confederate Parliament, while those systems which wished to remain neutral were given the well-wishes of the Republic Chancellor and Confederate Chief of State. The end of the Hutt Empire had finally come to an end, and the surviving Hutts were permitted to live in peace and equality with their former slaves.

War with the Golems
In the wake of the conquest of Hutt Space, the Shadow Collective retreated into the Outer Rim and began plotting new ways to attack the Jedi. Sending out their agents, the Collective was approached by a group calling itself the Peace Brigade. This organization consisted of many members of different species from across the galaxy who all possessed an anti-Jedi sentiment. Originating during the Separatist Crisis that led into the Clone Wars, the Brigade was originally known as the People's Inquest before transforming into a militarized terrorist organization. Planning a major attack, the Brigade hoped to lead a campaign of terror from the planet. When the Shadow Collective agreed to help, the Forceful Collective agents gained control over the Gutretee species through mind manipulation and led them into space. The assault on the neighboring worlds across the Anoat sector was violent and savage; and garnered the attention of both the Republic and the Confederacy. With the assistance of the Shadow Collective, the Brigade swept over the world of Garnib and conquered the Vaathkree colony there. Targeting worlds with mineral-based species due to their generally simple minds and brute strength, the Acolytes within the Collective found it easy to control both the Gutretee and Vaathkree people and pit them against their neighbors. Additionally, the Peace Brigade forcibly indoctrinated the youth of the invaded worlds and forced them to join their campaign of terror, spreading anti-Jedi propaganda and destroying all communication relays in the systems they conquered.

When the Shadow Collective took and enslaved the B'rknaa, they inherited an even larger fleet of ships capable of withstanding the blasts from Republic-Confederate warships. Together, their client species were known as the Golems and were considered to be prisoners of war by the Jedi who sought to liberate them from their state of compulsion. When the Jedi joined the campaign, the fighting flared up and only further compelled those under the sway of the Peace Brigade of the righteousness of their mission to wipe out the Jedi. The Republic Senate was divided over how to further proceed with the war, not wanting to drag the entire galaxy into another great conflict. This angered some Jedi, who hoped to see the destruction of the Shadow Collective and the eradication of the Peace Brigade and other groups who supported their anti-Jedi message. To the horror of the galaxy, Peace Brigade members began publicly executing any Force-sensitives they found, including children, and mutilating the bodies of captured Jedi. When the High Council committed the full strength of the Jedi Order into bringing an end to the scourge of the dark side, several dozen Shadows were dispatched and tasked with infiltrating the ranks of the Peace Brigade and the Shadow Collective. It was not long before the Jedi Shadows discovered just how corrupt the Brigade was, as its top commanders were planning to betray the Shadow Collective at the end of the war in their bid to rid the galaxy of all Force-users. Leaking this information to the Collective's Acolytes, the Jedi sat back and allowed infighting to erupt. The Collective's leadership swept into the Peace Brigade's base and executed the commanders-in-chief and took control of the non-Forceful recruits and pushed on with their savage agenda.

The war dragged on for two decades as the Jedi struggled to curb the indoctrination of new members of their anti-Jedi foes. Planets were quickly swept up in a war of ideology and neither the Republic or the Confederacy could reach whole sections of the southern arm of the galaxy. When the Shadow Collective's leadership showed themselves at last on the front lines in Year 70, Jedi Tesar Sebatyne infiltrated their ranks and slew their leader. Taking out five of the most important members of the Collective's leadership, Sebatyne was eventually cut down, but left a bleeding wound in the heart of the Collective. As Acolytes fought to fill the power vacuum, the Collective crumbled like all other dark side organizations before it: defeated by their own lust for power. With the Force-sensitive members hunted down or killed by their own allies, the Peace Brigade's army collapsed. The Golem species broke free of their compulsion and retreated back to their homeworlds and the galactic governments were free to restore communications to all of their lost systems. With the communications relays working again, the Republic quickly undid the indoctrination effort by crippling the propaganda machine of the Brigade. In a final assault, the Brigade's chief leaders instructed all surviving members to sacrifice themselves for the glory of their cause. A string to suicide attacks spread out across the systems with a Peace Brigade presence, including the destruction of several historic government buildings, capitals, palace and places of worship. Two Jedi temples were similarly bombed, with an attack on the Coruscant Temple foiled. Apart from blowing themselves up, the Brigaders flew starfighters into skyscrapers, capital ships began bombarding the planets they orbited before launching to hyperspace and targeting planets to ram. This caused cataclysms on, , , and. Despite these atrocities, the war ended and the remaining members of the Peace Brigade were detained by their fellow citizens and military personnel. Several surviving Acolytes were hunted down and destroyed or taken into custody by the Jedi Order. The remaining criminal elements of the Shadow Collective were effectively disbanded and their fortunes and properties seized and auctioned off. The Republic and the Confederacy declared an end to the fighting and the Jedi were honored as the true saviors of the day.

The way to Balance
During the Hutt Offensive, exiled Grand Master Yoda secretly returned to the Order, revealing himself only to the Jedi High Council on Ossus. Having spent the past three decades traveling the galaxy in solitude, Yoda had discovered the ancient race known as the Celestials, or Ainur. Tracing them to a forgotten world at the center of the galaxy, Yoda had returned with a greater perception of the Force and a stronger idea of the will of the Force. Searching for answers on Tython, Grand Masters Yoda and Moorcé sailed to the continent of Arda and sought counsel with the Valar there. sending them into the forests of Srednata Zemya, the two Jedi met with the aloof forester called Bombadil. He wove a tale of nine Tho Yor, the same ships which had transported the ancestors of the Je'daii to Tython long in the distant past. These same ships, he said, would return to Tython with more Forceful beings who would attempt to fulfill the ancient goal of the Tho Yor: to return the Force to Balance and initiate the end times of all non-Forceful species. Determined to see that the Force could be restored to Balance and the galaxy set back into harmony, Moorcé ordered that all non-Forceful inhabitants of the planet be evacuated to the other world of the system in preparation for the return of the Tho Yor. Patiently waiting for the arrival of the new Force-sensitives, the Order began constructing a new acolyte on Tython to accommodate those Forceful beings who would need training in the Jedi ways.

When the Tho Yor arrived in Year 100, the Jedi Order gathered in droves to welcome the new Force-sensitives. Made up of nearly a hundred different species, some of which had never been encountered by the Jedi, they two groups were initially unsure of how to proceed. Some Tho Yor passengers joined instantly in the training at the Acolyte academy while others wished to find their own way and fled deep into the forests and mountain passes of the vast planet's many continents.

Government

 * Jedi High Council – Based on Ossus, the twelve members of the High Council were given the highest ranking members of the Order and charged with governing the entire Jedi Order. Three types of membership existed: life-term, long-term, and limited-term. During the Golden Age of the Jedi, Grand Master Tomac Moorcé greatly dispersed the authority of the High Council into smaller Councils to insure proper attention could be given to specific matters out of the scope of the High Council's greater perspective.
 * Council of First Knowledge – Charged with maintaining the Order's knowledge banks and academies, the First Knowledge Council was directly responsible for the coordination of the Order's numerous satellite Councils charged with governing the Order's many academies and chapter houses.
 * Jedi Grand Council – The executive council of Tython, the Grand Council was made up of the Order's nine Temple Masters and Tython's Headmaster. Charged with the administration of the Great Journey and Trials of Knighthood, the Grand Council was also the keeper of the nine Noetikons and the Codex of Tython.

Jedi Code
Members of the Jedi Order from Jedi Masters to Padawans lived by a simple mantra, often the first thing a member of the Order was taught, which guided their thoughts, their bodies and their actions as practicing Jedi. Influenced by the writings of great Jedi Masters and the Je'daii Order's teachings, these principles were put simply yet effectively in the Jedi Code:


 * I am the heart of the Force.
 * I am the revealing fire of light.
 * I am the mystery of darkness
 * In balance with light and dark,
 * There is no emotion, there is peace.
 * There is no ignorance, there is knowledge.
 * There is no fear; there is strength.
 * There is no passion, there is serenity.
 * There is no chaos, there is harmony.
 * There is no death, there is immortality in the Force.

-The Jedi Code of the Golden Age of the Jedi-era Order.

Jedi ranks
As the Jedi instructed their members in the ways of the Jedi Code and the Force, each member progressed through five basic levels of rank with additional honorary titles handed down by the Jedi High Council on occasion.

Hierarchy

 * Jedi Initiate – The youngest members of the Order, these Force-sensitive children were given the rank of Initiate when they began their communal training in clans. Recruited from every inhabited world within the civilized galaxy where blood testing was required upon birth, Initiates were removed from their families and brought to the Grand Academy on Ossus for formal training. During the Jedi Renaissance era, every Jedi in the Order was required to begin their training on Ossus with no exception. Studying within the Academy's walls until they reached adolescence, Intiates took a final test before participating in a weeks-long series of trials known as the Academy Apprentice Tournament where Jedi Knights and Masters sought out potential Padawans.
 * Jedi Acolyte – Throughout the Order's history, the High Council has wavered on the age limits which restricted entry into the Order. Following the Clone Wars the High Council declared that all Forceful individuals could find a home in the Order, though they would enter into the Academy as an Acolyte. Given over to an accelerated yet intensive course structure within the Acolyte Academy. Like all Initiates in the Order, Acolytes took a final test before participating in the Annual Academy Acolyte Tournament to demonstrate their abilities for a potential master.
 * Padawan – After being selected for individual tutelage under a single Jedi Knight or Jedi Master, Initiates and Acolytes were given the title of Padawan. Eligible for this rank following the successful completion of the Initiate Trials]]and Acolyte Trials respectively, Padawans were typically taken at adolescence and completed their training away from the academy and Ossus. Per tradition, Padawans of a hair-growing species would wear a long braid of hair behind their ear; non-haired Padawans were encouraged to wear a type of jewelry, a tattoo, or other body modification. A Jedi Knight or Jedi Master could have only one apprentice at a time, and the Padawan had to be promoted to the rank of Jedi Knight before another apprentice could be chosen; a practice that was formalized following the Great Sith War and continued through the Renaissance era.
 * ''Service Corps member – Following several unsuccessful attempts at the Initiate Trials or if a student is not chosen by a Master, the Council of Reconciliation would place the student within the Service Corps. Depending on where the student's talents lay, this might be the Agricultural Corps, the Medical Corps, the Educational Corps Builder Corps, Security Corps or the Exploration Corps. The Service Corps were also open to ranking Jedi and non-Forceful individuals after the Clone Wars; allowing for those not generally allowed into the Order to serve the will of the Force. If this role did not suit a particular student, they could choose to leave the Order entirely.
 * Jedi Journeyer – Following a period of nearly a decade of one-on-one training with a master, a disciplined Padawan was eligible to attempt the Great Journey and the Trials of Knighthood on Tython. A title resurrected from the ancient Je'daii Order, Journeyers were tasked with travelling across the dangerous terrain of Tython to each of the nine Great Temples for specialized training in different fields of education including, science, metallurgy, Force skills, healing, martial arts, research, the arts and philosophy before traveling to Padawan Kesh to face the formal Trials of Knighthood. Once completed successfully, each Journeyer underwent the knighting ceremony and ascended to the next rank in the Order's hierarchy.
 * Jedi Knight – Upon successfully ascending to the rank of Knight, the Jedi is no longer attached to a master. Knights were free to accept missions from the Council, pursue specialized training on one of the three branches of Knighthood, or take their own Padawan. Many attached themselves to an academy somewhere across the galaxy to pursue further knowledge and skills at specialized facilities. Upon taking a student, a Knight was free to take them on missions or into the wilderness and train them survival skills as well as the traditional Jedi skills.
 * Jedi Ranger– Some Knights of the Order could elect to be assigned to a Ranger Academy where they would serve as a protector of the star system the academy watched over. As Rangers, the Jedi would patrol the system, become familiar with its planets and the beings that lived there. They collected the histories and tales of the inhabitants and assisted in expanding the Academy Libraries. Rangers could serve indefinitely, but typically remained in their designated system of 15 years before accepting reassignment. Rangers often became well known by the public, giving the Order a public face and a reliable champion of justice.
 * Jedi Master – A Knight who showed great understanding of the Force and managed to instruct a Padawan and train them successfully to the level of a Jedi Knight was elevated to the rank of Master by the High Council. Self-declaration of the title was frowned upon and rare practice in the latter days of the Order and increasingly rare after the Renaissance era. Among the Order's Masters, only a select few were appointed to one of the Jedi Councils which governed the Order's academies, institutions and knowledge banks. Made up exclusively of wise, experienced Masters, the Councils of the Order had different levels of membership, ensuring fresh perspectives were expressed as new events occurred. The High Council was made up of 12 masters, five of them holding life terms, four holding long-terms, and three holding short-terms.
 * Master of the Order – This position was the elected leader of the High Council and was tasked with guiding Council discussions and directing its members' attention to specific matters. Charged with calling the Council into session, the Master of the Order was the guiding hand of the High Council but was still considered an equal among the other Councilors.
 * Grand Master – The recognized leader of the entire Order, only a single Grand Master was appointed at a time during the modern era and was seen as giving direction to the Order.
 * Temple Master – During the Golden Age of the Jedi, each of the nine Great Temples of Tython were headed by a Temple Master who was tasked with not only overseeing the Temple's day-to-day operation, but with sitting on the Grand Council and maintaining each Temple's Noetikon.
 * Academy Headmaster – Approved by the Council of First Knowledge, each academy was placed under the stewardship of a single headmaster who was guided by a five member Council. Reporting to the First Knowledge Council for major decisions, the headmaster was charged with overseeing the appointment of knew instructors and the crafting of new classes. As Ranger academies opened across the galaxy, the headmasters of these facilities also served as the planet's or system's Watchman.
 * Barsen'thor – The Warden of the Order, this Jedi was charged with running the Security Corps and overseeing the parole of each of the Order's prisoners.
 * Caretaker of First Knowledge – Custodian of the Order's holocrons and leader of the First Knowledge Council, the Caretaker's was considered one of the wisest Jedi in the Order in terms of historical knowledge.

Specialization
Upon a ascending to Knighthood, each Jedi faced the choice of continuing down one of three branches of Jedi training. Choosing based on preference and personal talents and skills, the opportunity to join the ranks of the Guardians, Consulars, or Sentinels was open to all who passed the Trials of Knighthood. In addition to their specialization, the High Council could demand that the members of the Order assume military ranks in order to defend civilization.

Jedi Guardian
Practitioners of the school of teaching that stressed physicality, strength, and defense were known as Guardians. The public, lightsaber-wielding face of the Order to many across the galaxy, the Guardians were the archetypal Jedi that roamed the galaxy enforcing laws and putting an end to corruption. The original Jedi that departed Tython took on the classic traits of the Guardian as they roamed the galaxy and meted out justice between the stars, defending the weak and meeting violence with swift action. When the Order settled on Ossus, the Jedi continued to practice their martial skills but only the most devoted fighters took up the mantle of Guardian for several millennia as the Order built great temples and libraries and focused on study, healing, and peace. When the lightsaber was created, the Guardians once more flourished, taking a more active role in the fledgling Republic and building strong ties with the greater galaxy as its defenders. Aiding in military actions and leading troops, the Jedi Guardians were often times the only members of the Order to be seen actively about in the galaxy, distinguished by their exotic weapon and stunning feats. Following the Sith Empire's appearance on the galactic scene, the need for Guardians was inflated and many more Jedi began receiving military and combat training. More and more Padawans took up their lightsaber for defense and war then in eras past when the greatest threats were pirates or planetary militias. As time passed and the galaxy became accustomed to the threat of the Sith flaring up and diminishing, the Jedi Guardian became a permanent and prominent symbol within the Order and across the galaxy. Many Jedi counted themselves among the ranks of the Guardian school of Force training and made lightsaber combat practice a daily routine throughout their active years. Their martial training tended to focus almost exclusively on defense and resilience, leaving a Guardian as hard as granite. Hordes of opponents would break upon a Guardian like waves upon shoreline rocks, leaving themselves exhausted and open to devastating counter-attacks. Alone, their combat prowess would have been impressive, but a Guardian coupled their abilities with their connection to the Force. This combination made the Guardians far more powerful then a mere soldier; inspiring hope in those they defended. A Guardian's defensive combat style matches his concern for life. Rather than make aggressive moves, they gave their opposition every chance to relent and choose a peaceful resolution. Because Guardians frequently and deliberately put themselves in harm's way in order to aid others, many took to mastering Form III of lightsaber combat. Known as Soresu, the Resilience Form, Form III was a style of lightsaber combat which focused on defensive maneuvers. Spending an equal amount of time in the sparring arena as in a meditation chamber, Soresu defenders were the calm eye of the attacking storm from which they could deflect any incoming attacks. Soresu was adept at intercepting blaster fire as well as the lightsabers of multiple opponents. When practicing this technique at the highest level of competence, the Jedi could enter into a precognitive state, knowing the precise move required to deflect each attack. Depending on the Force to guide them through dangers, Guardians practicing Soresu rested their skill almost entirely on knowing how best to use their weapons fore defensive purposes. Adherents of the Guardian school of thought were driven by a strong sense of responsibility and compassion; they recognized that their affinity for the Force gives them the power and responsibility to help the helpless and aid the oppressed. Guardians tended to be blunt and forthright, using their prodigious combat prowess and natural leadership skills to directly intercede where they were needed the most. Most Guardians, while tempered by Jedi strictures, maintained a swagger about themselves, a cool confidence coupled with an air of nobility and authority. This poise was often well deserved, as Guardians were capable of surviving and winning battles against overwhelming odds. Guardians have a strong sense of justice, practice selflessness, feel powerful wanderlust, and are driven by a great amount of zeal and enthusiasm.

While garbed in the traditional robes of the Order like almost all Jedi, the Guardians could sometimes be distinguished by certain aesthetic choices. Training to fight in their long-flowing robes, Guardians during wartime would also train in heavy armor, donning it during combat or when necessitated by their assignment. Some Jedi preferred simple tunics when fighting, or only minimal coverage, allowing for a greater range of motion that could never be achieved while wearing heavy plating or inflexible steel. Many Guardians chose a blue crystal to power their lightsaber as a symbol of fraternity, but this was by no means required. Others wore flight suits when they were often times in the cockpit of a starfighter, and many more would garb themselves in a combination of armor and robes. Like other Jedi schools, the Guardians had many specializations amid their ranks. These specializations focused on particular form of combat or a specified role one might play in armed conflict. When a Padawan begins their training as Guardian, they are encouraged to perfect their physical prowess before learning to combine it with stronger applications of the Force. After they have crafted their own lightsaber, Padawans are obligated to defend themselves along with their master and all bystanders that may be in the vicinity of danger.

The greatest among the Jedi Guardians were known by the honorific Warrior Master. Though the lightsaber was an iconic weapon of the Guardian, few dedicated themselves as wholly to becoming paragons of strife as the Warrior Master. Whether flying in the pilot's seat of a starfighter or wielding a lightsaber on the field of battle, Warrior Masters excelled in combat of all types. The greatest among the Je'daii worked to integrate Force techniques into their physical training, imbuing their weapons with the Force and striking with cold precision against those who stood against the will of the Force. Becoming a physical manifestation of the Force when deep in battle, Warrior Masters of the modern Jedi Order were willing and ready to overcome those who would inflict harm, even if it meant laying down their own lives. Wise and aware of the taint of aggression, Warrior Masters transformed aggression into a tool and recognized that violence was not the only possible answer. Warrior Masters typically favored the Shii-Cho form of lightsaber combat, one which was said to be there first form developed by the Je'daii Order. Focusing on the essentials of saber fighting and borrowing heavily from other sword fighting techniques, Shii-Cho practitioners focused on perfecting the core tenants of combat, recognizing the strength of simplicity. Eschewing fancy maneuvers, Warrior Masters preferred to focus on the fundamentals of block, parry, and strike. Raw and simplistic, Shii-Cho's movements are deliberate and logical, intended to methodically eliminate an enemy's options before eliminating the enemy with a solid, powerful final attack. Warrior Masters often served as resources for young Jedi seeking wisdom and guidance in the Guardian school of training and were stationed at temples and academies as a member of the local Jedi Council or staff.
 * Ace – Members of the Starfighter Corps were known as Aces and specialized in using starfighters as an extension of their being, combining piloting skills with mastery of the Force. Pilots had been an important part of the Order from its beginning on Tython, navigating the stars as the Tythonian Jedi flew sleeper ships out of the Deep Core and into the greater galaxy. Using the Force to help navigate, control their craft, and target enemy ships, Aces had a strong connection to the Unifying Force and were highly attuned to spatial realities. Enthusiastically engaging in one of the most dangerous forms of battle imaginable, they place their trust in the Force to protect them as they launch into daring assaults. Those who embraced the risks of space combat were also skilled at astrogation, mechanical work, and working the complex equipment aboard their starfighters. These skills provided the essentials needed to successfully pilot a ship in combat, and their skill in the Force did the rest.
 * Aggressor – Members of the SecurCorps, Aggressors specialized in wielding double-bladed lightsabers against the enemies of the Order. Stationed at a Jedi temple, enclave, or academy, Aggressors were tough and dangerous combatants that often used fear to make their foes surrender or retreat in order to avoid a fight. Many Aggressors relied on brute strength or an imposing bulk to intimidate or scare an opponent, but were also willing to use their powers of coercion to end a fight. When working in the field, Aggressors were often assigned to serve as bodyguards in a hostile environment where diplomacy was certain to fail. Aggressors would defend a target first and foremost, not allowing anyone threw their shield of protection.
 * Armorer – Throughout the Order's history, armor served an important role in a Guardian's life. Realizing early on the need to protect oneself in order to protect others, the Je'daii built the massive Forges of Vur Tepe on Tython where they forged armor and swords. While some chose to make their own armor, throughout the galaxy's history of war and conflict many Jedi have taken on the role of armorer and assisted in mass-producing strong armor for comrades. Talented craftsbeings, they could wield their lightsabers with deadly precision and retrofit materials with their bare hands even in the middle of battle. Guardian Armorers used the Force to enhance their skills when they lacked proper repair equipment or needed to quickly comprehend foreign technology. The most skilled armorers could imbue an item that they made with the Force, granting that item qualities far beyond those that could be produced through mere physical manufacturing. In the modern era, all Jedi temples and enclaves had at least one armorer on staff serving as the quartermaster for the facility, arming each Jedi going into the field with the latest tech and equipment.
 * Combat instructor – While field agents were important to the Order's public mission, it was also necessary for some of the Order's finest swordsman to pass on their knowledge to the next generation in a classroom setting. The combat instructors stationed at Jedi temples or academies were battle-scarred Masters who had served in the field for years perfecting their art and growing deeply in the Force. While Knights were permitted to take on a single Padawan as they built their own resume of accomplishments, the rank of Master was required in order to teach many young Initiates at a time at an academy. Hand picked and vetted by the Order's Battlemaster, each combat instructor had a specialization they had mastered and were permitted to train others in. While each instructor might have a specific field of study, the Order's Battlemaster was proficient in all seven forms of lightsaber combat and was considered the leader of the combat training program within the Order. Stationed at the Order's primary academy and elected by the Council of First Knowledge, the Battlemaster appointed a proxy at each academy and enclave to serve as leader of combat training in the Battlemaster's stead. These individuals were known as the Master or Mistress of Lightsabers after the Clone Wars, and they sat upon the academy's governing Council.
 * Gatemaster – Guardians who attached themselves to the Order's SecurCorps could choose to serve the Order as a Gatemaster. Stationed at one of the Order's many academies, temples, or chapter houses, Gatemasters oversaw security at the facility and were tasked with the appointment of Padawan guards or the distribution of other SecurCorps members. Gatemasters were appointed by the Security Council and were proficient swordsbeings. Trusted with a facility's keycodes and passwords, a Gatemaster always possessed a staunch belief in honor and duty.
 * Peacekeeper – Across the galaxy there have always been tyrants, murderers, criminals, and the corrupt who cause untold suffering upon those to weak or unable to oppose them. Wars ravaged worlds, conflict spread from business affairs to turf wars. A Guardian who pursues a path in which they choose not to limit their activities to a single region take on the specialization of Peacekeeper. The most common of the Guardian specializations, Peacekeepers often act as special police or military personnel and take on assignments that extend beyond the abilities of the average police officer. Helping to quell riots and capture terrorists; organize resistance fighters and clear out gangs, the Peacekeepers were the most wildly seen Jedi. These Peacekeepers are protectors of the needy on a large scale; acting as bodyguards when needed but also serving as rescue workers, sheltering refugees, and holding the line until the innocents had escaped to safety. Peacekeepers enter war-torn regions and intercede to fight for freedom, protect the innocent, or enforce treaties and justice after conflict ends. They are capable leaders and steeled fighters, able to command entire armies or spearhead an underground insurgency.
 * Sniper – Members of the SecurCorps, Jedi Snipers were received advanced training in the use of throwing lightsabers. Requiring preternatural skill with telekinesis, Snipers stood on the battlements of fortresses, temples, and enclaves ready to defend with deadly precision. When time for negotiations had passed, Snipers threw their lightsaber with deadly accuracy to take down enemies that threatened the Order. Snipers were nimble and swift, capable of great leaps and amazing speed. When assigned to a particular facility, Snipers were answerable to the Gatemaster and took their postings at their command.
 * Warden – Wardens were adept, disciplined hand-to-hand fighters, but were even better at convincing potential attackers not to fight at all. They knew the underworld inside and out, and their talents allowed Wardens to intimidate adversaries and prevent them from getting away, or launch into scathing verbal tirades that cause evil-doers to suffer strain as they were forced to hear their own cruel deeds cataloged. To remain in Balance with the Force, Wardens balanced their coercive talents with their sense of justice. The empowering practice of intimidating or threatening an opponent could corrupt a Warden’s sense of right and wrong, drawing him towards the dark side he originally set out to fight against. Wardens often found work with the SecurCorps or were stationed at detention facilities maintained by the Order. While they were tasked with the detention of wrong-doers, their primary objective was rehabilitation rather than eternal punishment.
 * Warleader – To establish a beneficent order, the Jedi often had to engage in the brutalities of war. Warleaders were common during periods of galactic strife, and unlike Peacekeepers, focused on military tactics and strategy rather then the more typical police work. Warleaders relied on foresight, tactical acumen, and their lightsaber to win necessary battles with minimal bloodshed. Warleaders were trained to anticipate the enemy’s approach, command their own troops, take up arms, and keep fighting in the worst of circumstances. Warleaders only retired after the fighting was done, either dying in war or surviving the crisis and assisting in the clean up. Veteran Warleaders usually took up combat instruction in their retirement, passing on their knowledge and experience to the next generation.
 * Weapon Master – While all Guardians studied combat and undertook weapons training, some preferred to focus all of their energy on learning to master a single weapon or technique. These Jedi were known as Weapon Masters, and were considered the premiere wielder of exotic weaponry. Among the greatest physical fighters in the Oder, Weapon Masters wielded their weapon with grace and precision. While some mastered a specific lightsaber combat style, or used a uniquely-bladed lightsaber, others specialized in wielding blasters, quarterstaves or more exotic weaponry from individual cultures.

Jedi Consular
Those who pursued the way of the Consular focused on the goal of achieving peace and harmony through positive discourse. Followers of this path tried to avoid physical conflict whenever possible; instead they had faith in the Force to fuel basic compassion in all sentient beings. They believed that it was always more effective to have an intelligent discussion about a problem and then solve it through negotiations and other peaceful means than to engage in conflict to resolve it. They were opposed to needless violence but knew that when confronting true evil, they would be willing to take decisive action. A Consular would train to see the difference and to know when to speak words of peace, and when the time for words was over. The Consulars wore lightsabers, typically with a green crystal inside, but preferred to keep their weapons on their belt rather then to wield them. Many Consulars were diplomats, scientists, or scholars and were therefore not often seen among the stars by the common people of the galaxy. Jedi Consulars were most numerous during times of peace or renaissance, wherein the Jedi devoted themselves fully to the study of the Force and learning its secrets. In the wake of great galactic strife, the Order generally saw an uptick of individuals interested in the sciences and greater mysteries, and it is during these times when adjustments to the Order's teachings were made to reorient the Jedi away from violence and warfare and ground it once more in the study of the Force. Consulars knew the universal truth: knowledge is power, and understanding a situation can give one a decisive advantage. This held just as true when resolving disputes or negotiations as it did on the battlefield. A Consular focused on studying the world around them, recognizing that information offered tremendous advantages to themselves and their allies. They could then use that power to help change the hearts and minds of others to achieve their goals. Equal parts scholar and diplomat, Consulars see knowledge and understanding as the basis for long-term peace and harmony. It was their belief that hatred often sprang from ignorance and when a sentient comes to appreciate the backgrounds of another being's beliefs and practices, it became far easier not only to accept that being but to feel compassionate for them. As with all paths, a Consular risked falling out of Balance if not wary. Some researchers might become lost in their academic pursuits, obsessing over dry facts while blind to the plight of the weak and helpless. A Consular who maintains connections to those around themselves via the Living Force would not fall into these traps, as the Force provides a means of grounding a Consular's studies so that they kept what they learned in perspective. By remaining always mindful of how they could use their knowledge to help others, a Consular would remain in Balance with the Force. A Knight studying the path of the Consular would spend hours each day in a meditation chamber or wandering the halls of temple or enclave seeking inner Balance. Those inclined to research would feel at home within the Order's vast halls of knowledge or deep within the holocron vaults; others might find themselves drawn to the Halls of Healing where they might help others with through their own personal sacrifices through the Force. While not excessively physical, Consulars still trained in the art of lightsaber combat, with many becoming disciples of Form VI lightsaber combat: Niman. Because the Consulars usually lacked the time or passion to focus all of their energies toward mastering combat techniques, Niman was developed by those who chose to focus their careers in areas other than combat. While less physically demanding and precise as other forms, Niman was extremely effective due to its integration with other Force techniques. Niman practitioners learned to use their telekinetic abilities to push or pull opponents into range of their lightsabers. This worked particularly well against groups of enemies. Similarly, some who chose to study Niman also learned to fight with two lightsabers, enabling them to defend themselves against multiple opponents more effectively. Focused on survival and defense instead of attack, Niman disciples developed their defensive measures in concert with their negotiating techniques.

Consulars typically dressed themselves in the Order's traditional earth-toned robes, but would also don specialized robes necessary to their work or to distinguish themselves as part of a specialized field. Healers or members of the Medical Corps often dressed in soft robes of blue while Lore Keepers adorned themselves in green and yellows. The five schools of Seers denoted themselves by the use of colored robes including black, white, brown, blue, and grey. As students of culture and tradition, many Consulars adopted some traditional garb from their species' homeworld or belief systems: they would then incorporate this dress into their robes to remind them of their heritage beyond the Jedi Order. As all other Jedi schools, the Consulars had many specializations amid their ranks. These specializations focused on particular form of study or a research into the nature of the Force and the way it interacted with the galaxy. When a Padawan began their training as a Consular, they were taught to balance their lives between studying he theoretical uses of the Force in the Temple's libraries, and understanding the practical uses of its nature within a dojo. As with all Jedi, once they crafted their own lightsaber, Padawans were obligated to defend themselves along with their master and all bystanders that may be in the vicinity of danger. All Consulars shared a strong sense of duty, a compassion for others, a willingness to understand differences, and a hope that the Force would see the galaxy through.

The wisest among the Jedi Consulars were known by the honorific Sage Master. From the time they awoke, and even into their dreams, a strong connection to the Force colored their perception of the world surrounding them. They constantly perceived the ebb and flow of the Force's energies between all living things. Within the Force their instincts were shown to be true, more so then any training or instruction as those instincts came from the Force. Because Sages dwelt so deeply in the Force, they often learned to master a broad range of Force powers. Training and practice could enhance their aptitude, but not all required hours of study to become proficient in particular arts. Many Sages had reached such a level of connection to the Force they could intuit their powers through experience, accepting this as the natural way. They strongly believed that the Force guides and provides for them as long as they remembered to remain open and aware of its presence. When wielding a lightsaber, Sages typically became Makashi duelists. The presence and showmanship that could come naturally to all Sages reflected itself in the way of the duelist. For practitioners of Makashi, Form II of lightsaber combat, dominating a combat through one's presence was just as important as dominating it through martial prowess. A true Sage would always fight with poise and grace, never showing the slightest strain and keeping complete control over their facial expressions and the body's most minute movements. Developed by the early Jedi to fight against other lightsaber wielders, the style largely fell out of favor after the defeat of the Sith Empire as it was considered largely unnecessary. A combination of stylistic choices and a focus on precision caused most to view the form as the most refined and elegant of the combat forms. Using a single lightsaber, Sages sometimes used as off-hand shoto to encourage balance and precision. Sage Masters often served as resources for young Jedi seeking wisdom and guidance in the Consular school of training and were stationed at temples and academies as a member of the local Jedi Council or staff.


 * Advisor – Not everyone who was skilled in the ways of the Force sought to hold a position of tremendous authority, In fact, many Consulars believed that would find it too easy to abuse their unique abilities if they placed themselves in a position of leadership. Instead, some Consulars choose to accept the Advisor's role to ensure they could not be corrupted by the lure of power. The Order's advisors served the DiploCorps and were led by the Council of Reconciliation from the Coruscant academy after the Clone Wars. Assigned by a Chief Diplomat, advisors were either placed within the office of a planetary leader, or were tasked with roaming between sectors of space. These roaming advisors felt their advice too valuable to limit to one planet or region and wandered the stars by the will of the Force, sowing their guidance wherever it was needed. Those attached to a planetary leader or government helped to shape the rule of law and ensure fairness and justice for the citizenry. Many popular rulers had been assisted by Jedi advisors throughout history, as they helped ensure their policies did the most good for the greatest number. Socially adept, advisors took a very pragmatic approach in working with others and offering them the guidance of the Force. An accomplished advisor quickly analyzed the risks of a situation and then, using the necessary tools, would influence the involved parties so that a desired outcome could rapidly be achieved. Advisors also found themselves in less glamorous roles as they sought to assist the poor and the desperate. Among the common folk, they tried to counsel and guide individuals in dire straits, sometimes providing salvation to those who had lost all hope.
 * Ambassador – The Jedi Consular does battle using words and ideas. Nowhere is this more apparent than in the specialization of ambassador. Ever since the Jedi learned and adapted the principles of justice from ancient Caamasi philosophers such as Hespecia Tik'kla, the Order had been known for its impartiality. It is this attitude that makes Ambassadors the preferred representatives of the Republic and the Confederacy as new worlds are scouted and encountered. Working closely with government officials, the Ambassadors serve as the face of galactic civilization to those they meet. Working aboard ExplorCorps vessels and diplomatic cruisers, it is preferred that a Jedi ambassador be the first boots on the ground when encountering newly discovered civilizations as they represent the highest example of civilized behavior. Ambassadors are given nearly limitless powers of negotiations by the galactic governments, as they are tasked with bringing new worlds into the civilized galaxy. Ambassadors have a strong sense of respect for traditions and cultural purity, aiming to keep a world's culture intact as they transition into joining the greater galaxy. Ambassadors educate world governments on galactic norms, history, culture, language, and morals as they prepare to develop a strong bond that could ease transition into either the Republic or Confederacy.
 * Diplomat – Always right in the middle of a dispute, Jedi Diplomats were given the authority to hammer out a compromise or treaty during tense negotiations, backed by the full support of the Republic Senate, Confederate Parliament and the Jedi Order. Jedi were often called upon to act as impartial diplomats due to the Order's traditions of detachment from secular society and the phenomenon of Force-guided intuition. They would serve as moderators and negotiators during disputes, and their judgments were recognized as just and binding. When acting as diplomats, Jedi took the utmost care to be impartial and fair-minded. Some species who respected the Jedi – for example, the Barabel – retained a tradition of calling upon a Jedi's impartial judgment even for minor interpersonal disputes.
 * Healer – Consulars are often drawn to their career by a strong sense of compassion. In many, this is expressed by a desire to mitigate bodily harm and cure the sick. A healer trains to do so, recognizing that helping the individual can be just as important as helping the entirety of galactic civilization. For a healer, the power to mend other's through the Force is innate and a wellspring of power that must be augmented with training. Using their compassion and affinity with the Force, a healer took a holistic approach toward medicine. Mandy healers learn techniques that use the Force to fuel the body's natural recuperative abilities--sometimes transforming a potentially lethal injury into one that is survivable. They also sought to calm and heal the wounded spirit just as thoroughly as healing the wounded physical form. Many healers held a very strong philosophical compunction against physical violence. As they spent so much of their lives attempting to heal injuries, they could be extremely reluctant to inflict them. Consequently, those who studied this specialization developed defensive techniques, believing that dangerous situations are often the ones in which they are most needed. Led by the Circle of Healers, healers were deployed to serve aboard MedStar frigates or to medical facilities across the galaxy to practice their arts. The Jedi Medical Corps (Jedi Renaissance)MedCorps operated across the galaxy and staffed each Jedi enclave and temple's medical facilities. While the Circle was led by the Order's Chief Healer who was stationed on Tython as the Temple Master of Mahara Kesh, a Master or Mistress of Medicine was appointed to each of the Order's academies in the wake of the Clone Wars and oversaw the facilities there. These individuals held a seat on the academy's governing council and spoke with the voice of the Chief Healer.
 * Lore Keeper – Typically members of the EduCorps or attached to a specific academy or temple, Lore Keepers were Jedi that actively contributed to the preservation of the Order's collective knowledge. Separated into three distinct groups, Lore Keepers could either specialize as archivists, librarians, or historians. Each group worked for the proliferation of knowledge and preservation of the past, acting in conjunction with researchers and the ExplorCorps to catalog their work and discoveries to be presented to others. A Jedi historian was an individual who specialized in the history of the Order, its members, locations, philosophies, and deeds. Highly knowledgeable on past events and constantly kept up to date on new discoveries, the historians ensured that the Order remembered its past and protected the collective memory of the Jedi. Archivists worked exclusively with information communicated to their assigned facility by the ExplorCorps or other Jedi making new discoveries in the field. Cataloging, copying, and translating all new information that comes their way, the archivists work behind the scenes of the maintaining all of the Order's knowledge. The Librarians on the other hand, assist visiting scholars by helping them interface with the Archives directly. Members of all three groups make up the Librarians' Assembly, responsible for the oversight of each library around the galaxy. The Assembly was led jointly by the Chief Librarian of Ossus and the Temple Master of Kaleth in the wake of the Clone Wars. These two individuals oversaw the appointment of a Master or Mistress of Wisdom at each satellite academy. These individuals were the stewards of the academy library and directed the library's staff.
 * Researcher – A broad title that could apply to many of the Order's Consulars and other members, a Jedi researcher more specifically was a Jedi that employed their exceptional minds to solve theoretical problems and improve the quality of data in the Order's Archives. Researchers specialized in all matter of study, including mathematicians, linguists, archaeologists, alchemists, geologists, hyperspatial physicists, astronomers, and biologists. Researchers generally operated alongside the ExplorCorps and went on long journey missions to uncover new truths among the stars. Using the vast resources of the ExplorCorps, researchers worked in the field as well as in the lab alongside specialists from across the galaxy. Where non-Forceful individuals could also pursue a successful career in these fields, a Jedi researcher was bolstered by their ability to use the Force to uncover secrets others could not hope to detect.
 * Seer – Some individuals are able to remain constantly aware of the Force's presence, even as they go about their daily tasks. They recognize its influence in the subtlest of ways. For them, minor ripples in the Force reveal deep meanings and forewarn of critical events far in the future. Among Force-users, Seers were arguably the ones who felt the strongest sense of guidance from the Force. Dwelling within the Force at all times, they could recognize even minor ripples and follow them to their source to stop a small problem from turning into a major crisis. Similarly, they might recognize an even that occurs far away and advise those nearby to take action so they can be prepared well in advanced of a future crisis. Seer's abilities often gave them insights into the future, guiding them to places and people who most needed their wisdom and advice. However, this quantity of information--particularly in environments filled with others--can become overwhelming. For this reason, the Jedi Order sought to identify those with a knack for foresight early on and give them specialized training. Throughout the Order's history, the number of Seers has remained low, fluctuating each generation. Following the Clone Wars Seers were given great attention and respect, and granted a home at the isolated retreat of Orthanc on Tython. Here, the wisest of the Seers were known as Prophets, and each led one of the five schools of Force Seers, each garbed in their own color. The Nataph school was led by the White Prophet and visions of this kind came as revelation. The Nabi School was oversaw by the Black Prophet and they learned how to control their visions, which erupted as violent vocalizations. The Shamar school was represented by the Grey Prophet, who saw the future as if viewing the time stream from a distance. The Blue Prophet of the Roeh School focused on discernment of facts through people or objects such as fire or crystals; the Chozeh School's Brown Prophet engaged in trances. The Prophets formed the Council of Five and spoke directly to the Jedi Councils to provide them with only the most accurate visions. The Council also appointed a Chief Seer to the Order's Grand Academy, and each satellite academy's Council had a Master or Mistress of Visions as a member.
 * Watchman – Throughout the history of the Jedi, many have understood the need to have a presence in trouble spots even when trouble is not apparent. Rather than wait at a temple or enclave until an emergency is noted, the Order preempts these events by placing a Watchman on individual planets to monitor the situation throughout the system. Generally tasked with maintaining the welfare of an entire region of space at a time, the Watchman position has evolved through the millennia. During the war with the Sith, many Jedi took it upon themselves to build academies or training centers in troubled regions of space from which they educated Padawans and monitored the system for threats. During the New Sith Wars, these Watchmen evolved into Jedi Lords, taking a political interest in the system and declaring themselves as the protector and regent of a planet or system to defend against the Sith. During the modern era, the Watchman position has changed once more. As old and new academy are reopened and serve as a place for Jedi Rangers to train, Watchmen are appointed as the Headmaster of each academy. From the academy, a Watchman oversees the missions of each Ranger assigned to the system and communicates with local officials either directly or through advisors. Each Watchman is responsible for dispatching a Ranger to quell problems before they begin and to anticipate any cultural, social, political, or economic ramifications of their actions.

Jedi Sentinel
Knights that sought a balance between the intensive combat training of the Guardians and the wider philosophical views and teaching responsibilities of the Consulars fill out the ranks of the Sentinels. These Jedi ferreted out deceit and injustice, bringing it to light through a combination of the two disciplines and civilian expertise. Because Sentinels don't focus all of their time on lightsaber exercises or Force meditation, Sentinels acquired a host of skills that didn't require Force sensitivity. Every city has its secrets, and every shining beacon of civilization has its seedy underworlds. Whithin these shadowy depths, miscreants and malcontents prey on the helpless, committing heinous crimes and leaving misery and chaos in their wake. Most law enforcement agencies try to combat criminals without violating the very laws the agencies exist to uphold; thus their agents must be abide by strict regulations that restrain their behavior. A Sentinel, however, plays by their own rules. Blending combat expertise and training in the Force with a more pragmatic approach to their duties, Sentinels embraced practical technologies and utilized techniques borrowed from police forces, skip tracers, spies, and even law-breakers. Sentinels relied on quick thinking an cunning to accomplish their tasks, and they quickly found their calling in the depths of urban environments. On the streets, Sentinels could fight criminals by using their own tactics against them. Such an approach was not without risk. Even as Sentinels skirted the law to enforce justice, they skirted the dark side of their own morality as well. A Sentinel had to maintain constant vigilance over their own actions, analyzing each choice they made to ensure it was the right one. The most devout Sentinels avoided falling out of Balance with the Force by cultivating a fierce intellect and a brilliant cunning--to see all sides of a no-win situation and find the unexpected solution.

Of all of the Jedi specializations, Sentinels were most likely to be garbed in street clothes, rugged disguises, or all black robes. In an attempt to blend in, Sentinels in the field eschewed the simple brown robes that represented the Jedi Order. While most still adorned their belts with a lightsaber, they also might travel with a blaster or vibroblade during their missions. Rarely igniting their lightsaber, Sentinels often utilized rare amber crystals in their lightsabers, producing a brilliant yellow blade. When they did wield their weapons, Sentinels were often experts in Form V of lightsaber combat. Called Shien, this combat style relied on power tempered by cunning. Jedi who used this form were often strong, but quick wits were the mark of a true master of this style. Shien depended on striking an opponent where they least expect the blow. When dealing with ranged blaster fire, Sentinels learned not to block incoming bolts, but to redirect them. In this way, an opponent's weapon became the tool of the Sentinel. It took clever precision to reflect a ranged attack back toward an adversary, but just as much shrewd brilliance to recognize the right time to overpower adversaries through raw force. Whenever possible, a Shien expert prepared a battleground well in advance of a conflict. Often, these individuals took the time to study a range of different locations soon after they arrived in a city or spaceport. Once combat began, they could carefully exploit the environment and trigger any traps they were able to prepare to unleash upon their opponents. Typically sent out to undertake missions that Guardians or Consulars were not optimized to complete, Sentinels often were sent on scouting missions and were skilled in security, computers, or stealth techniques, and also had diplomatic skills.

While many Sentinels avoided the pomp and circumstance they believed surrounded titles and promotions, those who excelled in their duties could achieve the rank of Inquisitor Master. Feeling a strong compulsion to travel throughout the galaxy to aid those in need and to oppose those who used the dark side, Inquisitors were willing and able to travel and work in any environment to help ease crushing poverty or crippling plagues of hunger and disease. The could also discover new Force techniques, find sensitives in need of training, and at times halt dangerous threats that could otherwise fester in isolation. An Inquisitor was capable of doing all these things, while traveling far from any meaningful support network. While some might focus their attentions in cities and urban centers, the need could be just as great far from the heart of galactic civilization. Inquisitors generally took a very pragmatic view toward the Force. Operating independently, they considered it to be one of the tools in their arsenal, but not the only one. For an Inquisitor, preparedness and adaptability were paramount. They could not count on finding the right tools for the job in the isolated areas in which they traveled and, as such, they learned to be flexible and adapt quickly to find the best equipment from what was available. In some environments, this might mean discovering information about flora and fauna that was previously undocumented. In such situations, the Force could be the most reliable asset, and its flexibility could aid them in selecting and using whatever else was at hand. This flexibility was vital for the Inquisitor, as their primary task was to hunt down secret knowledge, solve the great mysteries of the galaxy, and to combat sinister threats in whatever form they materialized. Most Inquisitors traveled at the direction of the Force, allowing fortune and chance to select their destinations and their traveling companions. Most operated far from temples or enclaves, preferring to make their own way rather than to rely on official transport. Others worked within the confines of larger groups, when the Order organized an inquisition or needed to eradicate a Sith Lord. Inquisitors often wielded a lightsaber and used the Ataru form of combat in fighting. When working alone in a hostile environment, every physical conflict would need to be resolved quickly and decisively. Frequently, an uncivilized planet completely lacked any sort of medical facilities. In fact, at times, an Inquisitor could be the only sentient being on a particular world. In such a situation, a minor injury could be deadly. If a conflict is necessary, it is better that it be resolved quickly, taking whatever risks are involved, that to might more conservatively and prolong the risk of injury. Known as the Aggression form, Ataru appeared as a blur of leaps and lunges to the uninitiated. This style of lightsaber combat was exhausting, even for those who could enhance their speed and stamina through the Force. Inquisitors tended to be found aboard praxeum ships as members of the ExplorCorps when not on assignment. They were the most nomadic of the Jedi, disappearing for long stretches as they conducted an inquisition on uncharted worlds.


 * Artisan – Some Jedi had an innate skill with tools and machines. There skilled artificers can use their skill with the Force to enhance their abilities, and even intuitively understand a machine's form and function. After all, while tools and machines may not be alive, the Force envelopes everything in the galaxy. Artisans fell the Force that surrounds their tools and the items they work on, using this connection to build creations of wondrous beauty and precision. An Artisan does not create scores of the same item for sale or distribution; instead each of their creations was individual and iconic, a true work of art. The act of creation was central to the artisan, since it represented a union of the creator and the created. In order to fully integrate their Force abilities with the devices they manipulate, Artisans would first have to have a solid understanding of how those tools worked. This required a fundamental educational grounding in the principles of technology. When faced with a broken machine, Sentinels can often identify the problem in an intuitive way. Some Artisans lived up to the stereotype of the messy inventor, while others remained meticulously neat or even took pains to disguise their craftsmanship from casual observers. Artisans sought to understand creativity as a central aspect of the will of the Force. Most regard the construction of their personal lightsabers as their primary creative activity during their early years in the Jedi Order. An Artisan might create a half-dozen truly exceptional works in a lifetime. Some of these would be given to other Jedi and some would become part of the Jedi archives. Artisans were innately skilled artificers and engineers that felt the Force surrounding the tools, items, and materials they worked with. They used that connection to solve mechanical problems in intuitive ways and, above all, to build wondrous, powerful technological artifacts and objects.
 * Beast Master – Beast Masters were gritty Jedi that strove to restore natural Balance to the wilderness. These rugged individuals could forge deep bonds with animals and withstand the most hostile environments. Possessing a natural understanding of nature, Beast Masters could commune with the wild beasts of the galaxy and bring them under their control. Because they were able to bond with companion animals through the Force, they could communicate with them mentally, seeing through their senses, and even directing their actions. Beast Masters could enter into a deep meditative trance and send out their will to possess entire packs of animals. Beast Masters chose their specific career out of a preference for the company of animals over that of sentient beings. Enjoying a symbiotic relationship with the galaxy's fauna, Beast Masters occasionally engaged in alchemical alterations to species, particularly those that had been tainted by the touch of the dark side. Beast Masters would alter an abomination's chemical make-up to restore their Balance within the Force and breed out the twisted taint of ancient Sith machinations. This led many Beast Hunters to be hunters as well as the tamer of wild things. Armed with vigilance and ranged weaponry, they used their powers to track, confront, and slay malicious creatures--sentient or otherwise--that needlessly preyed upon innocent life. Far from the civilized parts of the galaxy, there were many predators that could endanger sentient life. Some of these threats were animals that preyed upon anything digestible; others were malicious and twisted individuals who enjoyed a savage and bloodthirsty existence. Beast Masters were uniquely capable of tracking, confronting and slaying these creatures, particularly those who hid in the wilds. Beast Masters needed to be able to sneak up on their targets, move through difficult terrain, and be constantly alert to their surroundings. Many Beast Masters trained with ranged weapons so that they could strike their targets from far away. Most Beast Masters initially embark upon a hunt focused on animal prey. Because their connection to the Force often lets them differentiate between predators that hunt out of necessity from those that are actively malicious. A Beast Hunter does not normally interfere in the natural cycle of life, but they are more than willing to restore Balance by eliminating a predator that kills needlessly and destroys natural habitats. Sadly, these foul and twisted animalistic intelligences also have their parallels with sentient beings. All too often, a Beast Master found themselves hunting intelligent quarry.
 * Investigator – Jedi specially appointed by the SecurCorps to uncover hidden and obscure threats to the galaxy such as powerful criminal syndicates, corruption, and conspiracy against the galactic governments and other shady menaces served as investigators. The Jedi investigator would often work in teams or form networks of informants, spies, and moles within the superstructure of the cities they operated in. Forming good relations with local law enforcement, Investigators often had a vast knowledge of all active criminals and built up a database of serial criminals to better identify patterns, criminal behavior, and terrorism. Tasked with infiltrating suspicious organizations on occasion, Investigators preferred to work on the sidelines and watch as events unfold and mysteries unravel with gentle prodding through the Force. Skilled saboteurs, investigators were stoic members of the Order and studied crime with a strong sense of justice. Based out of the Institute for Jedi Criminology on Coruscant after the Clone Wars, Investigators brought their Forceful suspects back to headquarters for trial by the Council of Judgment.
 * Pathfinder – Pathfinders united survival skills and Force powers to live off the land and scout uncharted territory. They often worked to support small tribes, pave the way for nascent colonies, or simply discover the natural secrets of unexplored worlds. Few were as capable of exploring a planet and discovering its secrets as a Pathfinder. The combination of Pathfinder's Force talents and their training enabled them to quickly and precisely complete a search, even under the most adverse conditions. A Pathfinder could survive in a hostile wilderness for weeks or months, living off the land with minimal supplies. Some Pathfinders followed this career because they discovered they have a knack for independent survival. Jedi with the unique ability to project battle meditation to ease hyperspace tangles and direct ships through the dangers of hyperspace became Pathfinders for the ExplorCorps. Navigating their ships through space, Pathfinders were responsible for taking the ExplorCorps to new worlds and discover new species. More advanced Pathfinders could create hyperspace wormholes that allowed ships to travel to different points in space instantaneously.
 * Recruiter – Members of the Acquisition Division were known as Recruiters, Jedi skilled at tracking down Forceful individuals across the galaxy and bringing them into the Order's fold. Many began their careers as Investigators, they later developed their skills to hone in on a young Force-sensitive. While technology had been limited to blood-samples for much of the Order's history, Master Callista Masana headed the construction of a machine which, when augmented by a Force-sensitive's brain, could allow the user to perceive and identify all Forceful beings in the galaxy. Known as the Moshtnost-otkrivane, the machine formed a clandestine telepathic connection between the Master Recruiter and an anonymous Forceful individual. The job of each individual Recruiter was to tap into this link and follow it to the source of the connection. Once found, a Recruiter's job became much more complicated, as they had to convince a family of the necessity of handing over their child to the Order. Recruiters had to have diplomatic training, in order to convince a family that their child was safest growing up in the controlled environment of the Order's academy, rather than developing their Force talents on their own.
 * Security expert – Members of the SecuCorps, security experts were known for their ability to disarm traps and silence alarms. Where Jedi snipers, aggressors, and Gatemasters kept intruders out, security experts were called upon to break in. Security experts recognized the Force's limitations when it came to technological countermeasures, and were known to have saved many missions and lives by studying how to disrupt them. A security expert was often the difference between a successful infiltration and a lifelong prison sentence.
 * Shadow – The secret police of the Order, Shadows worked under the supervision of the Council of First Knowledge and were dispatched to destroy all agents of the dark side. In the ancient days of the Jedi Order, Shadows worked tirelessly to police the galaxy's criminal underbelly. A small subset of the Order's investigation arm, Shadows focused their attention on the great and dangerous threat of the Sith and those who sought their evil artifacts. Training tirelessly to find and eliminate those who had fallen to the dark side of the Force and willingly embraced corruption, the Shadows hunted Sith and their creations with the goal of eradicating their evil from the galaxy. Heavily employed after the New Sith Wars and the Clone Wars, the Shadows were responsible for erasing the word "Sith" from the minds of the majority of galactic citizens and eradicating their ancient strongholds. Recognizing that stealth and deception were integral to finding the targets they hunted, Shadows worked from the darkest places of the planet's they operated out of. Criminal organizations were often mired in secrecy, and uncovering these secrets required underhanded methods. While their techniques were frequently of questionable moral character, Shadows firmly believed their ultimate accomplishments more than justified the tools that they must use. Shadows could often become fanatical, and therefore were required to spend time under the guidance of Jedi Masters after a mission to ensure they remained in Balance with the Force.
 * Slicer – Jedi slicers were computer specialists who were able to infiltrate networks while leaving no trace of their manipulation. As with many Sentinel specializations, this skill was notable due to the fact that the Force doesn't often offer a shortcut. While one might use a mind trick to get past the guard, once a slicer was seated at a terminal only their data skill mattered.
 * Tech Specialist – The tech specialist carved out a unique talent among the ranks of Jedi, who often sunned leading edge technology. They had broader skill sets than slicers, and were able to disassemble, juice up, and rebuild any piece of equipment from a hyperdrive engine to an electronic deck of sabacc cards. Due to a prevalence of maintenance and repair droids, these abilities were rare among the members of the Jedi Order. Some tech specialists had cultivated a gift for the Force ability mechu-deru, which bestowed on the user an intuitive understanding of how complicated structures, including machinery and circuity, fir together. Many tech specialists served in the Order's Technical Division, wherein they worked on starships, droids, and oversaw maintenance within temples and enclaves.

Jedi sub-sects
The Jedi Order during its history has often been confronted with schisms regarding the interpretation of the Jedi Code, which sometimes created new thinking minority within the Order. Following the Jedi Renaissance, the High Council welcomed different ways of interpreting the Code and viewing the Force under the mantra that it is better to have Forceful beings under the umbrella of the Order then out in the galaxy without oversight. Following the Clone Wars, the High Council undertook a massive search for Force groups with the intent of bringing them under control of the High Council. Widely successful, these groups were permitted to maintain their individuality while required to submit their teachings to the Council of First Knowledge for review. Any new students had to have completed training at the Grand Academy before training at an academy of a sub-sect of the Order. This allowed for a more unified, diverse Order where all views were tolerated and given a voice.

Altisian Jedi Founded by the Jedi Master Djinn Altis, the Altisian faction held several precepts frowned upon by the orthodox Jedi Order, including the taking of multiple apprentices by one master, initiating adult Padawans, and allowing families. Leaving the Jedi Temple three decades before the Clone Wars, Altis and his followers moved about the galaxy serving as relief workers on underdeveloped worlds and backwaters. When Altis took a seat on the High Council, the Altisian Jedi were brought back into the fold of the Order proper. Taking up a permanent settlement in the small city of Talla, located in the mountains overlooking the city of Knossa on Ossus, the Talla Jedi as they became known welcomed Jedi who sought marriage ceremonies but agreed to allow their children to be trained at the Grand Academy.

Corellian Jedi Faithful to the reputation of rebels of their people, Corellian Jedi were strongly attached to their natal star system and unwilling to respect the rules of emotional detachment of the Order. So, a waiver was granted to them allowing them to remain in the Corellian system, to raise families and take their own children as Padawans. They soon developed their own cultural identity within the Jedi Order, with traditional green robes, commemorative medals and famous dynasties Halcyon family. Under the guidance of Kessar Jedd, the Corellians united with the Order more formally after high tensions during the Clone Wars. Allowing their young to train on Ossus, Corellian Jedi kept their traditions but respected the will of the High Council and the Corellian Academy's administrative Council.

Paladins Founded by the Jedi Master during the, the Teepo Paladins and later Falon Gray's Paladins acknowledged that a Jedi could be no more independent of the Force than of nourishment or air; nevertheless, they had developed skills and techniques that did not utilize the Force's "flashier" aspects. They didn't eschew the use of lightsabers completely, they simply believed that a Jedi should use which ever weapon he or she felt the most comfortable with, but many chose instead to rely on proficiency with blasters and other forms of combat, both armed, and unarmed. They became Masters in various forms of martial arts like Teräs Käsi, as well as esoteric weaponry such as spinsticks, rather than rely on Force-augmented gymnastics and speed. Teepo and his followers were ostracized as potential dark siders. Though not a formal part of the Order, some still maintained residence at the Jedi Temple. Under the guidance of Grand Master Tomac Moorcé the Paladins were brought to Ossus to undergo formal training inside the Order so that they might take up their appropriate place within the Order. Many of the Paladin Weapons Masters went on to teach their specialized skills at Stav Kesh on Tython.

Iron Knights Founded by the Jedi Master Aqinos, the Iron Knights were Force-sensitive crystalline trained as Jedi, who required droid bodies as their hosts to interact with the world. The High Council, however, was horrified that Aqinos had taught inorganic crystals about the Force, and felt that they could not truly understand the Force. Aqinos was excommunicated, and the Iron Knights went with him. Joining with the Altisian Jedi, Aqinos and his Iron Knights were invited back into the Order by the new Grand Master following the Clone Wars and were given ranks within the Order. Aqinos' Knights went on to encourage the proliferation of droid rights across the galaxy.

Baran Do sages The Force-based tradition of the Kel Dor, many Jedi native to Dorin studied ancient texts from this order during their time with the Jedi. Meditative and secrerative, the Baran Do possessed weather-related abilities which allowed them to sense the coming of storms and harness Force electricity. Long resisting the invitation of the High Council to declare full affiliation with the Order, the Master of the Baran Do Order was finally convinced to ally with the Jedi after being informed about the Sith plot that almost wiped out the Jedi in the Clone Wars. Constructing a Temple in the city of Knossa on Ossus, the Baran Do maintained their temple on Dorin as a Jedi chapter house. Many Baran Do Jedi made their way to Tython where they studied the bizarre Force storms which occasionally ravaged the world.

Believers The Believers cult was a dark side sect which fed off of the Sith fortress located on the planet Almas. Drawing many Jedi to their cause, the Believers were recognized as a true threat to the Order by the end of the Clone Wars. Tasking Almas Headmaster Worma Triblen with taking control of the Sith fortress on Almas and exterminating the Believers, the Almas Rangers finally captured the last members of the group in 15 BBY. Detained on Ossus, the Believers were systematically brought into Balance either through solitary meditation detention or exile to Bogan above Tython. After assimilating into the Order, the Believers were no more.

Blazing Chain Based out in the Unknown Regions, the Blazing Chain used the Force to augment their pirating careers and raid unsuspecting ships along the fringes of the galaxy. After the Clone Wars, members of the Jedi Order began to hear whispers of Force-sensitive pirates aligned with the Shadow Collective and quickly reported this to the High Council. It was not until the Hutt Offensive was in full-swing that the Order finally confronted members of the Blazing Chain as they fought alongside the Hutts in the war for control of Hutt Space. What members that could be taken prisoner were brought into Balance and allowed to live on a Jedi fortress world, while others were either destroyed or disappeared into obscurity. Due to the Order's strengthened recruitment policies, the Blazing Chain disappeared due to attrition as Forceful children were identified and brought into the Order's academy.

Boughtine A group of gentle hermits who make their living through the crafting of paper dolls and toys, the Boughtine study the Force as it manifests in the arts. Living in isolation on the mountain planet of Brosi, these individuals were encountered by Jedi Master during his travels. Making note of their existence, his former apprentice, Obi-Wan Kenobi sought them out during his search for Force-based groups and invited them to join the Order. Agreeing to send representatives to train with the Jedi, most Boughtine Jedi resided either in Knossa expressing themselves in the public square or cloistered away within the halls of Bodhi, Temple of the Arts on Tython.

Ner Yan While not an organization, practitioners of Ner Yan were based on Cerea and suffered great decline as Cereans constantly attempted to fight off the encroachment of technology on their homeworld. As more and more corporate entities attempted to entice the younger generations to allow offworld innovations into the Cerean society, interest in Ner Yan diminished. After the Clone Wars, Jedi Master Ki-Adi-Mundi offered Ner Yan adherents a place of worship on Ossus where they might preserve their traditions and pass it on to others. While reluctant to leave their homeworld, Mundi convinced them that by recording their knowledge in the Great Library of the Jedi they would ensure that their teachings would be passed down to the next generation of Cerean Jedi who could one day assist in revitalizing the tradition on Cerea.

Cruthauses

The Cruthauses, native to the planet Talor, were farmers and pacifists, encouraging plant growth through the Force. Born out of the Agricultural Corps of the Jedi Order, the Cruthauses developed after Jedi Cruthaus crash-landed on the planet and taught the native Talorons the ways of farming with the Force. These individuals were encountered by Jedi Master during his travels into the Unknown Regions during his long career. Making note of their existence, his former apprentice, Obi-Wan Kenobi sought them out during his search for Force-based groups and invited them to join the Order. Agreeing to send representatives to train with the Jedi, most Cruthaus Jedi resided joined the AgriCorps and spread their knowledge of farming to disadvantaged peoples across the Outer Rim. Others went on to join Master Stass Allie's community of wanderers out in the wilds of Ossus.

Disciples of Shaa At the height of their society, the Seylotts maintained a rich culture which spanned their entire planet. Worshiping the Mother and the Infant of Shaa, the Seylotts built massive temples devoted to the worship of the duality of life as personified in the Mother and Infant. When their society declined, those primitive groups which remained slowly began to die out. Dwindling down to a small population, only Force-sensitive Seylotts managed to survive. Unable to call for help due to a regression in technology, the Seylotts were saved from extinction when Jedi scouts discovered the world and opened negotiations to bring the Seylotts to Ossus. Taking refuge deep within the jungle continent of the Jedi fortress world, the Seylotts built new temples to Shaa and saw their society reinvigorated. As all offspring were Forceful, the Seylotts allowed their youth to be trained in the Jedi arts, making them a largely Jedi species.

Disciples of Twilight Native to the shadowy world of Dyspeth, the Disciples of Twilight were founded by a former Jedi Knight and a group of Forceful colonists. Protecting the weak with their ability to use the Force to bend light, the Disciples were able to render themselves invisible and cloak themselves in shadow. When rumor of their existence reached the ear of the High Council, Grand Master Moorcé wished to learn of their abilities so that the Jedi Shadows might learn the art of light bending. Sending an envoy to Dyspeth, the Disciples were intrigued by the idea of joining the Order and expanding their customs. Agreeing to establish a Temple on Ossus, Moorcé also suggested they build a training academy in the Shadowlands of Tython so as to study the strange light effects which had long baffled Jedi scientists. Jedi Disciples often served as Shadows, researchers or Peacekeepers.

Ela b'Yentarr A name given to Bosph Force-sensitives, the ela b'Yentarr were treated as mystics by their fellow Bosph. Located outside both Republic and Confederate space, the Bosph were not subject to laws regarding the custody of Forceful individuals and was therefore the target of Jedi ambassadors interested in bringing the species into the Order. Dispatching Master Beyghor Sahdett in 4 BBY, the High Council hoped to win the species over and receive several children a year. Successfully negotiating a deal, Sahdett managed to convince the Bosph to send ten Forceful infants to the Order annually and encourage older Bosph versed in the ela b'Yentarr tradition to travel to Ossus to share their collected histories and traditions with the Order.

Fallanasi Known as the Adepts of the White Current, the Fallanasi were an all-female group who focused solely on the mystical aspects of the Force, teaching nothing the way of telekinesis, or abilities which manipulated the physical world. Based on Lucazec, the Fallanasi did not believe that authority was a truth to be observed and therefore rejected the overtures of the Jedi High Council to join their Order. Despite this, the Fallanasi constructed a temple in the Free Cities of Tython where they continued to practice their arts of illusion in private. Over time the Adepts began to connect more and more with the Order, allowing for their religious texts to be stored in the Great Library and even sending representatives to the Ossus to give lectures on the White Current. By 98 ABY, the entire order was comprised of Fallanasi Jedi, as all Force-sensitive candidates were inducted into the Jedi Order and new Fallanasi were members of the Order who sought out the Adepts' Temple of the Infinite Spirit in the Free City of Braavos. The Fallanasi Jedi, while still exclusively female and refusing to recognize the High Council's authority, maintained their Jedi ways and introduced martial skills into their teachings of illusions. Remaining a small, isolated group in the Free Cities, the Fallanasi did move around freely on Jedi worlds and their teachings on illusions became readily available, especially after several Fallanasi adepts began teaching at Qigong Kesh.

Far Seekers

Fellowship of Kooroo A fringe group of pilgrims who traveled the Outer Rim visiting ancient shrines to the supposed historic being called Kooroo, the history of the Fellowship was plagued with allegations of corruption and fraud. In an attempt to discover the realities of the group and if they could be inducted into the Order, Master Obi-Wan Kenobi and his Padawan, Ahsoka Tano tracked down the group during their 16 BBY pilgrimage to Branteez. While observing the shrine from a distance, the Jedi were able to detect that it was closely guarded and that its sentries were Weequay. Approaching the shrine on foot, the Jedi convinced the guards to let the inside and they were greeted by an assorted group of Shriners. welcoming them to their Shrine, the members of the Fellowship gave a detailed account of their experiences at other Shrines and encouraged the Jedi to feel for themselves the true nature of the group. Feeling a definitive echo of their own Force abilities in the Shrine's walls, the Jedi were willing to entertain the notion of the group's legitimacy. All belief in the group diminished however after interacting with the group's leader, an Elomin priest who showed no knowledge of the Force or having any connection to it. Exposing the fraud for what it was, the group quickly disbanded in an awkward silence and departed the Shrine. As the Jedi prepared to leave a lone Shriner, the young Glovan Thule, approached the Jedi and asked them to take him with them back to Ossus. Revealing that he was once a Padawan but was abandoned on Gelgelar prior to the war, Thule revealed that some members of the Fellowship were legitimate and their shrines were fabled to hold ancient Force-based machinery. Intrigued, Kenobi took Thule along with him to the main shrine on Vaynai to speak with the Shriners there. After much debate the leaders of the Fellowship agreed to disband the group of pilgrims if the Jedi Order in turn guaranteed that they would protect the Shrines. Agreeing, the Order used its political backing to declare the Shrines as Jedi facilities and used them as chapter houses as the Order's membership increased enough to staff them.

H'Drachi Seers

Inner Seers A monastic religion native to the planet of Uyter, the Inner Seers resided in massive, mountain-straddling monasteries and sat in meditative repose while taking vows of silence which sometimes span decades. A common feature of their monasteries and temples were massive belfries used to ward off malignant spirits as well as prayer wheels spun to send positive energy into the Force. As the planetary governments attempted to win the favor of the Jedi Order, the Inner Seers were used as a bargaining chip by one of their own, Senator Male-Dee, as he attempted to appease the anti-Seer government of Uyter in exchange for Jedi protection of their interests in the post-war era. Learning of Male-Dee's less-then-admirable tactics, Grand Master Moorcé approached the leader of the Inner Seers and offered them refuge on Ossus should they wish to join the Order and shirk off the oppressive government sanctions of the Uyterian government. The leaders of the Seers confided in the Grand Master that Senator Male-Dee had been appointed as the Inner Seers' last chance of survival, that the planetary government had effectively waged a war against the monastic order, destroying two hundred monasteries and diminishing the order to a mere one hundred members. Appalled by the allegations against the Uyter government, Moorcé requested that the Order's newly developed ark ship be deployed to transport the Inner Seers off of Uyter and to Ossus. Packing away ancient artifacts, emptying massive libraries of histories etched in stone tablets, and gathering their prayer wheels and bells, the Inner Seers departed their homeworld to make their new home deep in the mountainous jungles west of Knossa on the planet Ossus. Erecting a massive palace on a hill completely enshrouded by jungle, the Inner Seers dressed in maroon and gold and refused to wield a lightsaber in favor of the quarterstaff. After the Republic began a crackdown against the Uyterian government, the Inner Seers who remained behind on their world ensured that all Forceful children born on the planet made their way to Ossus for training.

Witches of Dathomir Founded in 600 BBY by the exiled Jedi, the matriarchal society of Humans and Human/Zabrak hybrids thrived on Dathomir; developing in isolation from the rest of the galaxy. Focusing on arcane uses of the Force, specifically magicks learned from grimoires and oral traditions. Led by a Clan Mother, several clans coexisted on the sparsely populated world, taming rancors and using the Force for healing and the pursuit of knowledge. A sect of Witches known as the Nightsisters focused on dark arts and drew upon the Spirits for guidance in the pursuit of strength and power. Selling their arts to pirates and crime bosses, some Nightsisters found employ in Black Sun or the Shadow Collective. Following the Clone Wars the planet was seized by the Jedi Order who sought to form a lasting truce with the Witches and bring them into the Order. Eradicating the Nightsister sect, those who survived fled into Hutt Space. Those who joined the Order passed on their knowledge of natural remedies and magicks lost to the Order; combining these skill sets with Jedi dogma allowed both groups to evolve their teachings and add clarity to their pursuit of knowledge.
