Houses or Chapters?!

So the idea of Space Hogwarts is there!

Now the question is how do we fine tune this.


Do we want Jedi Clans?

Jedi Chapters?

Or Jedi Houses?

Please post your ideas!

^ pretend that is me.


Anyways. I love the idea of Houses But can be interchangeable with Chapters.


I'd love the ability to use a banner with a sigil of each house/chapter in it.

Obviously, one doesn't have to be stuck in one house/chapter forever ( they are optional) but for those who feel so more inclined to one house can certainly use them as a venue to perhaps Chapter/house spars between one another.

I think if it ends up going to where each "house/ chapter" has an area of focus or general area of focus, it would work well.

Kinda like this, but doesn't need to go by this format. Just an idea.


The Je'daii Temples were the nine temple-cities that were erected across the many continents of Tython by the Je'daii Order around the landing points of the mysterious and ancient Tho Yor. Central to the training of each member of the Order, each young Je'daii Journeyer was tasked with undertaking a Great Journey to each of the nine temples in order to learn from the masters and instructors there before ascending to the rank ofRanger.

The most sacred Temple was that of Akar Kesh which was located in and atop a great monolith which rose out of the earth and was marked by eight great rivers which flowed from its summit and down its sides. Hovering above the monolith was the largest of the Tho Yor, and the Temple of Balance sat beneath it.

On the continent of Talss there were at least three Temples; Kaleth, Anil Kesh and Vur Tepe. Straddling the Chasm was the Temple of Anil Kesh, the Temple of Science, which was located several kilometers east of the Old City, which was located in the southern Red Desert. The Je'daii temples of Kaleth, the Temple of Knowledge and Vur Tepe, and the Forge were located on the same continent and separated by the vastTythos Ridge.

On the continent of Thyr, rocky plains and the strange Stark Forest separated the Thyrian Ocean from the Silent Desertwhich housed the expansive Temple of Force Skills, Qigong Kesh. The Temple of Martial Arts, Stav Kesh was located on a continent south of Thyr known as Kato Zakar high in the Ice Giant Range.

The island of Masara was located south of Thyr and was home to Bodhi, the Temple of the Arts which was located along the southern coast beyond the Edge Forest. The Je'daii Academy of Padawan Kesh was located some distance from Bodhi on the same continent. In the midst of the Deep Ocean stood the Temple of Healing, Mahara Kesh which boasted the finest medical facilities on the planet.
 
Alright - also discussed:

Within every House/Chapter there may be a certain focus of academia. For instance, at the Cato Temple the focuses are Healing Arts and Archival Studies. Upon taking X number of classes and participating in X number of missions for this House, a Jedi will receive a talisman of the House. This talisman is a symbolic piece that denotes the graduate's degree of the base level of studies gained within the House.

Every House may have different standards or requirements for gaining the House Talisman. A First Talisman would likely, in ranking terms, signify a base-Knight-level knowledge of the skills learned.

Should a Jedi choose to remain within the same house to continue those same Focus, after completing X and doing Y, they will receive a House Amulet, which offers prestige and some power relative to the House. (a meditation crystal or what have you, each House can hash this out on their own). This Amulet denotes what would equate to a Master-level knowledge and use of the skills learned.


The Great Journey
A Jedi's journey to train within all the Houses, collecting all the Talismans, similar to the Maester's chains from Game of Thrones. Upon completion they get bragging rights, a really cool thing, and a hat.

That's pretty much exactly in line with my preference, which would be that each satellite temple develops its own culture and specialties, like you've already done with Cato.

I'm just here to look like I know something and agree with the rest of you. Please continue, you're doing great. *goes back to the garden*

Stop watering the headmaster. This place is PG-13.
But she needs her twice a week!!!

Lol

Anywho. I think "Houses" seems to be the more inclined term.

So from our current database of academies, what do you guys believe each would focus on? I figure Shule would be heamaster of one with dantooine.

What about the one on Rhen val?

We also hopefully will get yavin as potentially the main site.

Any others? Will they be headmastered by npcs or pcs?

For main site, there's a few options.
  • Yavin IV - renovation thread is well underway, and Mando leaders have signed off OOC and IC. Main draws include movie imagery and nostalgia value for those who loved how the Order operated in Jedi Outcast/Jedi Academy and associated books.
  • Praxeum ship - less partisan/beholden to a major faction, mobility is good.
  • Deneba - neutral space, site of a major ancient Jedi convocation
  • Theed or Corellia - OP has signed off IC on building a very secure Jedi temple; Theed on Naboo has been discussed, and so has Corellia
  • Dantooine - Great history, good aesthetics, smallish facility, Shule would happily cede it to the NPC headmaster

I should note that there's also a Light Side temple on Sabarene, at the edges of Fringe space, but Fringe leadership is currently in IC discussion over how to handle it. I'll keep folks posted.

I'm also working on Rhen Var as maybe a satellite location or just a waypoint in the Jedi Great Journey idea. I don't know. Made sense at the time.
 
I personally like the Praxeum as the main meeting place. We can HIDE it, we can MOVE it, we can DEFEND it, we can call it our own. We Jedi don't hold territory, but maybe we can hold a ship?

It's really my favorite place and it gets my vote, but I'll work with whatever is decided.

Could have it sponsored through a company of tier 4 or higher, if we can consider it non-combat, or tier 5 or higher if it's considered a combat-ready ship. I don't remember the stats exactly.

Yeah, that's a combat-rated loadout. Two hundred forty quad lasers, a main gun equivalent to forty turbolasers, and a serious carrier complement - that's a combat ship.
