Telos Academy Council (Jedi Renaissance)

The Telos Academy Council was a satellite administrative body subservient to the Council of First Knowledge. A seven member Council, these Jedi Masters were appointed to govern the Jedi Academy located on the planet in the  of the Outer Rim. The academy itself was housed within an old irrigation compound deep beneath the sheet ice which covered the polar region of the planet. The structure had been converted into an academy in the wake of the Jedi Civil War in 3,924 BrS by Vierra Atris, a leading member of the Jedi High Council. The academy never opened however, as Atris descended into the dark side when she was corrupted by the Sith holocrons she stored in the academy's vaults.

The academy was eventually opened as an isolated place of study, and a refuge for artifacts that the Order hoped to preserve against a Sith assault. When the Sith ceased to be a threat in the wake of the, the Order slowly began to close the facility, with the last of the holocrons removed a few decades prior to the Clone Wars. After the war concluded, a new Jedi High Council decided to reopen all of its former locations across the galaxy as a means of extending the Order's presence into every star system. Reopening the Telos location as a Ranger Academy, the school was dedicated to the study of data storage methods, becoming a hub for Jedi archivists and researchers searching for new ways to encrypt, store, and collect data.

Organization
Founded in Year 20, the Telos Council was convened to guide the curriculum at the Academy and oversee the operation of Jedi Rangers in the Telos system. Comprised of six of the leading instructors and the Headmaster, the Council met in a circular chamber at the heart of the facility. The Council met regularly to discuss curriculum, teaching methods, and new discoveries, and created a space for communal meditation and reflection. Members of the Council were the highest ranking member of their discipline within the Academy's staff; as a Ranger academy, the Telos Academy was not strictly educational as it also served as a base of operations for Jedi Rangers. The leader of the Council was the Headmaster, who served as the chief administrator of the academy facility and the steward of all of its students. The Headmaster was the executor of academy business and interacted with local governments and maintained the academy's supplies. Jointly serving as the Watchman of the Telos system, the Headmaster met with the local governments and assisted in the political and social discussions as they related to the planets across the system.

The Master Ranger sat on this Council, and was appointed to oversee the assignments of each Ranger at the facility. Maintaining a communications center and Operations Planning Center, the Master Ranger trained, educated and evaluated the Rangers assigned to the system. Aside from guiding the other instructors, the Council's Chief Instructor was specialized in ensuring that the quality of the work conducted in the labs met the standard of the Order's archivist arm. Because systems developed by the academy had the potential for use on both Ossus and Tython, as well as at other academies, precision and perfection were invaluable.

Like all academies a Master of Lightsabers was appointed to ensure all students and teachers maintained a certain level of physical activity and lightsaber skill. The most martial of the academy's staff, they not only oversaw daily training and sparring bouts, but whoever held this title was responsible for the facility's defense and security. The Master of Lightsabers was appointed by the Order's battlemaster, who served at the Grand Academy on Ossus. Likewise, the Master of Visions was the academy's most respected, and typically only, Seer. The Master of Visions probed the Force to ensure that the academy's mission was fulfilling the Order's mandate to maintain Balance, and that the activities conducted by its students and teachers did not tip the scales in anyway. The Master of Wisdom sat the Council and was tasked with organizing and updating the Academy Archives. Any and all progress in the pursuit of knowledge was recorded in the Archives, as well as personal journals, experiment logs and test results. Ensuring the quality of the data collected, the Master of Wisdom compiled annual data updates to be reviewed by the Librarians' Assembly. The Master of Medicine, a member of the Circle of Healers, was assigned to each academy to serve as the primary healer and physician for all of the academy's students and staff. An alchemist in their own right, the Master of Medicine often took on a role as an instructor within the academy as well.
