Paladin of Light
Author's Note: This is a special setting in the Star Wars universe, mixing stories, mysticism, and chivalry. It focuses on the Order of the Sunstar, similar to the Jedi but with its own unique beliefs.
The Order of the Sunstar explores good vs. evil and character growth, with ancient prophecies, magical artifacts, and rituals. The key Temple of the Sun and Moon has tests for members to face their challenges and temptations.
The order's strict rules and rituals make it feel exclusive and dedicated, causing both unity and conflict within the group due to different beliefs.
Setting and Environment:
Centerra, with its oxygen-rich air, is home to giant life forms and vibrant landscapes. Its dramatic storms and unique nature attract various groups from the Star Wars universe, thanks to recent advancements in space travel. This setting promises exciting adventures and encounters in a visually stunning world.
Important Note / Disclaimer:
In Centerra, various groups see the Force as connections or cosmic energies, echoing the Ewoks' mystical view. Considered magical, the Force significantly shapes the planet's cultures. Force anomalies reveal Centerra's close ties to the Force. Elements like the Stellar Convergence emphasize the balance between the Force and life, adding a distinct touch to this fictional setting.

HISTORICAL INFORMATION
Every 100 years, the "Stellar Convergence" occurs, aligning celestial bodies, creating vivid skies, tidal waves, and temporary portals. This event is awe-inspiring but can be dangerous, offering great power or causing chaos. The Sun Star Order plays a key role in guiding and protecting Centerra during this time, reinforcing the planet's deep cosmic connections and the importance of balance.
Centerra was found by Galactic Republic explorers during the Expansion Era and became home to different groups seeking a new start. Conflicts between these groups led to instability. The Sunstar Order helped bring peace, and the Oligarchy, with representatives from all groups, was set up to govern and keep peace. The Council of Elders aids in decision-making, with the Lord Protector leading. Despite ups and downs, Centerra stands as a symbol of unity.
