Progression within the order itself is different, while fundamentally a padawan can learn any of the courses to progress they need to be able to show understanding within the lessons taught. Construction of their own force based artifact from the materials supplied is the first step. Using knowledge gained from the different subsets of the order to teach them about the materials, the history and the knowledge how to craft it all together.
The leadership of the order is something else that is made simple compared. The heads of each division within, the forge, the knowledge and the sciences provide a department head. Those three work with the leader of the order chosen by skill and knowledge to lead. The protectors of the order are another part of it as all who join are tasked with the eventual construction of a knight saber.
Some of the other works the Jadeite go towards giving people is help and access to some of the more obscure groups within the galaxy.. Contacting with their Heralds the sects of the Jal Shey, the Jensaarai and the Zeison Sha as a means to allowing the skills of the sects to live and forge new ideas. Matsu's interactions with them attracting some of their members to teach survival, respect and knowledge over just combat.
The Gotai is one of the elite sects within the order that are acknowledged for their skill and works. Be it creating a new piece of force tech, a way to filter and handle information or improve the sciences of the jedi. It isn't just tied to masters, it does not require that they be masters of the force or blade. It is for their feats in creating something that will improve the lives of the jedi as an order. - Climate: Friendly and welcoming to those seeking knowledge of the lightside. They welcome non force users who are specifically looking for the sciences and utilize the service corps of the jedi. The advancement of knowledge and understanding as well as reaching the highest potential is paramount.
- Reputation: Largely unknown and ignored, they prefer keeping to themselves as it allows them to travel around and not make waves.
- Curios: Sasori Shadex, Sasori Kojie, Jedi Meditation Ship, Library Monolith, Kagami Mirror, Exis Temple Station, Veilstones
- Rules: Follow the lightside, do not abuse the knowledge discovered within the order.
- Goals: Advancement of force and scientific understanding, research into the past and shaping the future as well as understanding anomalies within the galaxy.

HISTORICAL INFORMATION
A small order formed by the jedi slightly outside the order. The Jadeite serve the purposes of furthering education and advancement or understanding both of the force as well as the mechanical marvels. While orders like the Silver watch develop to protect against the darkside, the Jadeite serve to construct the gear that they use should they so choose. The order is composed of the often considered lesser groups within the order.
Those who do not often fit in with the warrior classes of the jedi can find some purpose within the Jadeite to become different researchers, historians and collectors finding exotic technology to reverse engineer into new force crafted technology that serves the lightside of the force. Other working to collect history and lore to rebuild the knowledge base of the jedi into a truly grand archive and library.
The parts of the order itself are broken into three major groups, comprising three jedi groups that work together to organize everything. The artisan's and researchers who study, craft and collection rare and exotic artifacts, technology, samples throughout the galaxy. Working to create new equipment that can be used by their people. The ones who serve as lore keepers, collection information, organizing the library and recording jedi history.
The final sects within the order are the most skilled of them all, researchers of the different sciences. Uncovering, analyzing and unearthing the long forgotten secrets of the ancient worlds. The order finding much that can be done as they slowly work to rebuild and display their skills on the ancient world of Ahch-To at the First Jedi Temple. They have worked to restore it like the Citadel or other temples across the galaxy.
The order also provides something few others do, in terms of what it works towards building with jedi knowledge. an emphasis on generalists is given. Jedi able to duel but also know different force powers for different situations. Matsu herself priding herself on the skills for handling different situations as opposed to being in a single division or class as some like within the jedi order. It allows her to move freely and adapt.
Another key aspect of the Jadeite is an unwavering dedication to the lightside of the force, given how most of their focus is on strengthening the order through knowledge and defensive force based technology they have designed it to work for those who feel and follow the lightside actions. Incorporating all craftsmen and forge workers who know how to imbue materials with the energies.
Ideally interactions with and among the members hold a level of respect both IC and OOC but not everyone has to get along and story while important is not an excuse to harass others. The Jadeite would prefer drama to be kept as far away as it can be and hold itself to a higher standard for being open and accepting of members who want to see the lightside of the force prosper.
For outsiders within the Jadeite, non force users, non jedi force users it is different. On the one hand ideally the non jedi would be brought in and ojin the order to serve the light. Convincing them but as a force user they are at risk and in danger of being tempted. The Jadeite seek to teach them how to resist the evils and temptation of the darkside with education.
They don't see a need to only teach those who follow the jedi how to see and identify the darkside of the force. Hording the basics of knowledge to protect someone is selfish and ver unjedi like. Yes they might not be able to be taught how to move mountains but teaching them how to control their emotions and resist the temptation to try and make the galaxy how they want it is a very important thing.
