Character Romi Jade

PEny2qR.png




This is why the mantle of Grandmaster is and has always been meant to be passed on to you...
- Veiere Arenais

Romi had done a very neat piece of quiet manipulation to shift the focus away from her and onto the less-experienced Jedi. Very clever.
- Teynara Jarelyr


A beautiful planet that once stood as the capital of the Hapes Consortium - and now the home of one of the most renowned Jedi Masters in the last three hundred years.
- Wyatt Morga


Romi was powerful, and her education in the dark side would not be interrupted if she had any say in the matter...
- Taeli Raaf


Marveling Ador’s jaw nearly dropped agape. He was looking at Romi Jade, one of the most infamous or famous Jedi in the galaxy depending on who you asked. The Boy was shocked, unable to get out a sentence at her command instead snapping a salute. He’d never been in the military, but it had felt natural and the only thing the Corellian could think to do.
- Ador Horn

...the paragon of light burned with all the radiance of the sun rising at the dawn of a new day, he exuded courage and the will to fight on despite the odds, an implacable foe of the dark, a jedi among the living legends of the modern era alongside names like the late Veiere Arenais, Thurion Heavenshield, Coci Heavenshield, Romi Jade...
- Darth Prazutis

Of course Romi Jade was infamous in her own way yet their paths had seldom crossed back when the New Jedi Order's numbers were far greater.
- Zark San Tekka


Or think about Romi Jade. If it's evil, she's fought it. She could be a queen just on general principle. But she's right over that horizon living under an abandoned irrigation facility, because that's how she centers herself in the authentic.
- Jend-Ro Quill


Thurion Heavenshield was a household name among the modern Jedi. The actions of Jedi like him, Romi Jade, and Coren Starshaser shaped many who now called his actions into question.
- Ryv


She had heard stories of Romi Jade as a child. One of the brightest lights of the Galactic Alliance, a true Jedi Master. As deadly as she was beautiful, as kind as she was cunning. Romi could teach her everything she needed to know about being a Jedi...
- Thalia Senn

Romi Jade was one of Joza's, adopted into the Perl family. She was dutiful, courageous, and a wholly good person. A powerful Jedi, never straying from her intended path, and who had advocated cooperation amongst all Jedi for many years. To one who had outlived so many, finding such wisdom in one so young was always an absolute pleasure, for he knew the Jedi as a whole had a bright future.
- Thurion Heavenshield


His eyes lingered across and froze on a familiar blonde dressed in a ravishing white dress. The familiarity matched the face with a name every Jedi in the galaxy knew.

The legendary Jedi Master - here on Hapes.
- Dagon Kaze

Physicality...

"Master Jade might be the Order's top blademaster. She even knows Vaapad, the style that's only ever taught to high-level masters of multiple Forms, traditionally. Something to aspire to, eh?"
- Jend-Ro Quill

I've picked 10 names I think no one would wish to meet on a dark night without an army behind them.
- Kaine Australis, musing on a list that included Romi


Beginning her training under Veiere, and culminating with her ascension to Jedi Master, Jade continually proves her reputation as an accomplished lightsaber duelist. She learned theory first as her Master was a scholar before anything. However, a very quick study, her more casual and unorthodox approach allowed her to distinguish herself as a skilled duelist later down the line. Having bred and mastered her own hybrid form that includes the straightforward tactics of Shien, combined with the graceful, powerful, and energetic acrobatics of Ataru, and leveled out with the deceptive maneuvers of Trakata. She's also began to learn the basics of Vaapad, studying the lessons legendary Jedi Master Darron Wraith left behind. Jade has and continues to carve her way into the upper echelons of some of the greatest fighters -- many of which she's gone against.


The way the Jedi wielded her weapon would make the women of Midvinter proud for in Valkyri culture even the women could be great warriors, but what stood before Vili was his greatest challenge to date. His blue eyes taking in her movements, looking for potential flaws. None stood out as of yet, and despite her size the Jedi still possessed a great strength.
- Vili Ozouf

She was much stronger, both mentally and physically, than he had expected. The dark side granted her unnatural energy. His expression grew solemn. He barely had any time to recover from the sudden departure of his opponent.
- Rhane Varless

Good fighter—both with her fists and with her words.
- Cotan Sar'andor

She's got the nicest backside in the galaxy, she's one of the greatest duelist in the galaxy, and she saved my life

- Vaulkhar

He had fought against her in training, and later in live combat during her greatest of personal trials. Veiere understood her skill, her practice both in the Force and in the arts of the lightsaber had nearly ended his life once
- Veiere Arenais


Romi is a combatant that has the athleticism and endurance to outlast most people, forgoing the use of the force at all. She's tanked blaster wounds to the back and has stonewalled shards of rock and stone launched at her via the force. She's been on the front lines, going toe to toe with both Sith and Mandalorians while fighting a disease — she took on two Sith Lords, a Mandalorian A'lor, and the Sith Emperor simultaneously for a short amount of time. Romi is the type of opponent that you'd have to physically fight down in order to beat. Jade was also trained in espionage and infiltration by Alliance operatives which helped maximize her already natural aptitude for quickly analyzing situations for dangers and traps and then formulating a means to secure her objectives. Those skills alone made her highly useful and sought out by many factions, the Jedi and the Sith included.


Without warning, the pipeline above him shrieked loudly as the metal distorted and broke away spilling out in front of his path, fortunately missing him though provided enough of a distraction for Romi Jade to get the drop on him. She had appeared out of nowhere with such speed.
- Veiere Arenais

The Sith didn't want help with Master Jade? Cocky or confident?
- Kian Karr

He could see a orange lightsaber cutting into the skin and muscles of the being. A blur of a female happened to be holding it. I could only assume it to be Romi with my vision fading back and forth from being a mass of blurs, and clear concise vision.
- Kaleleon Seleare

He could never hope to block the wave of blaster bolts coming in their direction like his master was. It’d be suicide, frankly.
- Cassius Droma


If it weren't for Romi Jade, a lot less troopers in his platoon would be alive right now.
- Sol Stazi


A solid saber combatant, she was also trained in unarmed combat by Morgukai warriors, who were renown Jedi killers. Trained in their own form of martial arts, she's learned principles based in breaking the condition of the body losing equilibrium, and breaking her opponents to make them vulnerable. She's been trained to maintain her own personal balance and to destroy an opponents before putting them in positions where they can easily be dispatched. She's become keen on using her entire body in any way to bolster her fighting style whether it's with larger or smaller opponents. Sol Stazi dubbed her the Queen of Air & Darkness, recognizing her as a powerful trump card waiting to be played -- she's fast, she's observant, she dominates, and she perseveres.

The Force...

Romi was his childhood friend, a woman with whom he shared the kinship of youthful memories. Furthermore, she was a Jedi Knight, and one he had often considered far more skilled than himself.
- Cedric Grayson

He felt her body against his and the way the Force moved around her, through her, and around them. He felt like having her nearby could strengthen him. That was a feeling.

- Coren Starchaser

I also don't doubt your teaching ability, I mean -- your powers are beyond the entire New Jedi Order.
- Auteme


She'll humbly muse about being a moderate Force-user at best, placing somewhere in the middle for someone of her rank. However, her peers and Master have constantly noted her strength in the Force, regarding her as some sort of prodigy. She rose to Knighthood at a much faster rate than any one of her peers and was even made Grandmaster in place of the previous one over any other candidates. Accomplishing those feats at her rank is a testament to her potential. Like many other Force-sensitives she possess many basic applications that are generally understood and used across the board. Extremely crafty, she's able to make use of her abilities in unconventional ways. She has an extremely powerful Force persuasion, being able to enhance her voice and exert influence. Her skill in this area is enough to where she can easily affect the minds of some species with highly organized mental facilities with time and extreme effort.


...a terrible scream erupted from the woman, enhanced by the Force. She was pushed back from where she had been, the tables and chairs around them getting blown away to fall into the city or sea. Such power, even unconscious.
- Taeli Raaf

His former apprentice having broken through his mental defense with astonishing ease in her moment of desperation; the power that she could summon when everything was put on the line and nothing was restrained by her former doubts and insecurities of the past.
- Veiere Arenais

And just like that, Morbus felt his mind being assaulted. The pain that passed through his consciousness was excruciating, as though he was being torn apart by thousands of beasts, ripped to shreds and scattered on an open flame. It literally knocked the sense out of the Sith, as his yellow eyes lolled back into his head, his tongue hanging from his gaping mouth. Morbus almost toppled to the floor, were it not for the braced position he had been in.
- Darth Morbus, experiencing Romi's mental assault

She'd never actually met Romi Jade, but the name was one that she knew from the archives, from the stories told. Once a grandmaster, a paragon of the light who had fallen to the darkside and clawed her way back to the light. It was a harrowing journey, one that took a massive amount of personal willpower to pull off.
- Asaraa Vaashe


Her mental abilities are such that she was able to Force meld over 10 plus Force-sensitives and maintain the link while in the midst of a duel and while the temple was collapsing around her. She demonstrated this ability again when she melded a group of Jedi together in order to erect a Force shield large enough to save her allies from orbital bombardment. On numerous occasions she's demonstrated the ability to break through someones mental barriers with relative ease, somethings she'd done to both a Jedi Master and Sith Lord. Her natural talents for melding eventually grew into Battle Meditation; she's employed the ability to break through illusions in the invasion of Pantora, and used it to effectively turn the tides during the battle of Balmorra. Notably, it was the ability she used to break herself free from the darkside and Sith sorcery used to enslave her -- she accomplished this by effectively pulling the dark side itself away from her being.


Saying that Romi wasn't a master of her craft, would bring a distaste to one's mouth. I didn't know of how she could perform such feats.
- Kaleleon Seleare

Romi had demonstrated envious athletics and what looked to Amon as the Force to subdue completely the near-immortal Gen'dai.
- Amon Vizsla

He saw the battlefield with clarity he didn't know existed. His eyes flicked from display to display and ship to ship, the fatigue he'd expected to set in a long time ago still vacant from his mind, the storm never rolling in. Since their first loss they hadn't lost any other capital ships and fighters were performing far above expected levels of efficiency in the field. His eyes fell on the Jedi Knight and he wondered if this was her doing.
- Dracken Pryce

...she let out a fething Force Scream strong enough to crack the earth. Dax almost missed it, almost didn't react till it was too late. But he felt the Force shift, and the Dark nature it promised. The Rogue turned and Force Pushed those nearest, Yula and Cotan among them, away from the immediate range of the attack. Unfortunately, that left his own defenses weakened. Although the meager barrier of the Force took the brunt of Romi's attack, he still felt its impact, knocking him onto the ground, and leaving his ears ringing terribly.

- Dax Fyre


Her magnitude in the Force alone is such that she was able to go three years of keeping the Sith poison pumping through her veins from corrupting her or interfering with her positions on the battlefield. It wasn't until she was caught unaware by sorcery that she would succumb to the poisons effects. She was trained by the Bendu on Eadu, a Force sensitive entity who claimed to represent the center of the Force, learning the basics of Bendu warding and how to be empty. She'd also been trained in very ominous abilities as well during her time as a Shadow Hand, Taeli Raaf instructed her in how to deaden her body to pain and in some sorcery -- which she only vaguely has an understanding of really; at the most she'll be able to identify it. She'd even been trained to channel the force in withering blasts of light by Veiere Arenais and Coren Starchaser, combining the ability with her battle meditation to produce the unique effect of combating a dark siders use of the Force by pulling the users' powers away from them, essentially weakening their grasp on, or cutting them off from the Force; she employed this during the battle of Bimmissari when she dueled the Sith Emperor, Darth Carnifex. She learned to share and recall memories from Master Quill, and how to allow others to draw upon her force energy, no matter the distance, from the Golden Sun. But, one unique ability she is noted for is her power to amplify her voice to produce an highly pitched sonic scream capable of damaging and stunning her opponents. She has demonstrated maximum control to where she can play with pitch and power. She's almost made several people deaf, ripped off and launched previously attached public scenery into the ocean on Dac, and has reformed the ability to make use of echolocation to snuff out assassins.

GENERAL INFORMATION
  • Media Name: The Heightened Influence of Luminous Beings: Notes on Battle Meditation
  • Format: Pages (Book)
  • Distribution: Rare (also backed up to a memory crystal in her possession which only a select people know exist)
  • Length: Medium
  • Description: A page of notes detailing Jade's path to discovering her natural affinity for the art of Battle Meditation, and the things she's been capable of and how to do it.

SOCIAL INFORMATION
  • Author: Jedi Master Romi Jade
  • Publisher: Self
  • Reception: These are thoughts, observations, experiences, and lessons that Romi has learned over time. She decided to muse and document in her private time with the intention of it helping those who wanted to learn more about a very important, rare, and difficult Force skill to master, even for the most experienced Jedi Masters. It's a piece of a larger book she is writing. It's not widely known or available anywhere else for there to be tons of reception. Beyond the pages she authored and spare memory crystal she keeps, this is flying under the radar.

FORMAT INFORMATION
To be included in a larger book Romi is authoring, this reads from left to right on two pages. Handwritten notes and marks that outline her experiences and her reflections on them, along with pointers, and tips for the studier. The information contained in the crystal could only be accessed when placed in a holocron which, in turn, could only be opened with the Force. Once opened, the three-dimensional appearance and cognitive networks of Master Jade, that could sense the ability and level of a Jedi, would appear to begin explaining Battle Meditation and related techniques.


CONTENT INFORMATION
These pages cover the art of Battle Meditation -- prerequisite skills -- advanced techniques -- drawbacks -- and variants
  • Force Meld, an ability that allowed users to join their minds together through the Force, drawing strength from each other. Helps coordination for users who are on the same side. The demand is smaller than that of Battle Meditation, smaller number of sentient minds influenced -- relatively easier to master gets easier with those your close with or meld with often. [pre-req]

  • Battle Meditation, an ability that considerably boosted the morale, stamina, and overall battle prowess of an individual's allies while simultaneously reducing the opposition's combat-effectiveness by eroding their will to fight. Done by visualizing the outcome you want -- takes time to refine and master.
    • Drawbacks
      • Often requires being stationary to maintain focus
      • Can be draining after constant use
      • Can't be used on self in early stages
      • Might require build up

  • Advanced techniques for those with dedicated training, and reserves, and precise control. [Master Level]:
    • Combating Sith Magic & Illusions - Here - Here
    • Control and influence minds - Here - Here
    • Psionic shields & disruption (which causes pain) - Here - Here - Here
    • Battlemind - internalized, and hyper focused sustained use can put you on route to learning and utilizing it.
    • Dampen Force / Sever Force-
      • Romi scribbled on the side: "Darksiders drew power from raw emotions and feelings such as anger, hatred, greed, jealousy, fear, aggression, megalomania, and unrestrained passion. You could combate a dark siders use of the Force by pulling the their powers (negative emotions) away from them, essentially cutting them off from the Force. This is a very taxing technique usable only by those with experience in battle meditation." - Here - Here
      • She scribbled some more: "This saved my life, brought me back from the grip of the Dark Side. With Coren's help in weakening the dark magics hold on me with Force Light, I was able to free myself completely using this technique to pull the dark influence away from me...expelling Taeli's influence completely" - Here

  • Sith Battle Coordination, this perversion of battle meditation allowed users to twist the wills of their commanded armies not through subtle influence, but with total domination. However, beings are not always easily subjugated and can react with hostility to psychic intrusion. [Dark Side]

HISTORICAL INFORMATION

This Force power was first made famous by the ancient Jedi Masters Odan-Urr, Arca Jeth, and Nomi Sunrider. Odan-Urr used it during the Unification Wars, while Arca Jeth used it with great success during the Beast Wars of Onderon. Being naturally adept, Nomi Sunrider applied battle meditation in nearly every conflict she participated in, such as the Freedon Nadd Uprising, and the Battle of Koros Major. It was also practiced by Bastila Shan during the Jedi Civil War and the Battle of Rakata Prime, with impressive results.

In 855 ABY, Romi Jade's latent mental abilities grew, as she was the only Jedi at the Deneba Enclave who could Force Meld, a rare ability that saved hundred of refugees at the Battle of Hoylin. She went on to do this during the Battle of Coruscant when she melded over 10 plus Force-sensitives and maintained the link while in the midst of a duel and while the temple was collapsing around her. She demonstrated this ability again when she melded a group of Jedi together in order to erect a Force shield large enough to save her allies from orbital bombardment.

By 860 ABY, she was demonstrating the ability and power to break through someones mental barriers with relative ease, something she'd done to Veiere Arenais, a Jedi Master and Darth Morbus, a Sith Lord. Her natural talents for melding eventually grew into Battle Meditation; She broke through illusions in the Invasion of Pantora, and then carried on two telepathic/mental battles with Sith while influencing the strike team below -- she did the same during the Battle of Balmorra with Dracken Pryce.

Notably, it was the ability she used to break herself free from the darkside and Sith sorcery used to enslave her -- by effectively pulling the dark side itself away from her being.

It wasn't until recently that she decided to document and record her personal history and experiences using the ability. Becoming Headmaster of an Enclave, and a bunch of near-death experiences made her want to author some sort of tome and record data for her Holocron one day. As of now she's only shared her notes with Jend-Ro Quill as they often muse of such things along with him being an instructor, and Coren Starchaser a close friend of hers. The tome once complete will be used to teach the next generations.

Katarine was born on a planet in the Unknown regions but she does not know a lot about her past. As a child she had a spell placed upon her by a Dathomiri Witch, causing her to have long standing amnesia in relation to her past. The spell replaced some of Kat's memories with false ones so that the woman believes she grew up in the Jedi Order. It remains a mystery why the Witch chose to place the spell upon Kat.

During her training Kat excelled at stealth and espionage and was offered a seat on a group called the Jedi Investigators. This specialized group investigated crime in the Underworld, meaning Kat spent most of her training life undercover. When she was informed she would be taken on as a Jedi Padawan she left the Investigators and traveled to Ossus to begin her training at the rank of Jedi Padawan.

Part 1: Shadows of the Force

"A Jedi accused, a galaxy deceived, and a cult determined to unleash darkness."
In the hidden corners of the galaxy, the Twilight Fist, an extremist cult, emerges as a formidable adversary to the Jakku Jedi Enclave. Forged from the remnants of the Path of the Open Hand & Closed Fist, this clandestine group, led by the enigmatic Lady Tenebrae, operates in the shadows, orchestrating events to undermine the Jedi Order. Driven by a belief that the Force should remain dormant to prevent impending calamity, the Twilight Fist seeks to reclaim a weapon from centuries past, one that Jedi have long feared—the Nameless.

Jedi Master Romi Jade, accused and betrayed, stands at the epicenter of a conspiracy. As the Jakku Jedi Enclave faces one of its darkest hours, the enigmatic Twilight Fist emerges from the shadows, threatening to unleash a power that could shatter the very fabric of the Force. Employing subtle manipulation and misinformation, the Twilight Fist's influence spreads, infiltrating key organizations and governments. As the guardians of the Jakku Jedi Enclave navigate a landscape of intrigue, espionage, and uncertainty, the Twilight Fist, ever watchful, waits for the opportune moment to strike

The galaxy is on the verge of turmoil as the recent restored Jakku Jedi Enclave, led by Master Romi Jade, faces an ancient threat: the Twilight Fist. This extremist cult, led by the mysterious Lady Tenebrae, seeks to unleash the Nameless, creatures capable of devouring the Living Force, upon the galaxy in their crusade to rid it of Force users. Romi Jade, charged with war crimes and facing a public trial, becomes a pawn in their game. As the Enclave is thrown into chaos, two of Romi's senior students and the rest of the Enclave and its associates must navigate political intrigue, betrayal, and a looming darkness that threatens to consume the galaxy.​


gYrU8Wk.png

Against the sprawling backdrop of the Jakku Jedi Enclave, this collaborative narrative unfolds as threads of destiny intertwine in a planned, multi-plot, ongoing saga known as "Shadows of the Force." This faction-based storyline weaves together the diverse perspectives, voices, and contributions of participating characters, creating a rich dynamic that breathes life into the overarching narrative of the Jakku Jedi Enclave faction.

The story centers around the resurgence of the Jakku Jedi Enclave, once abandoned after a Sith raid, now restored under the guidance of Jedi Master Romi Jade. However, the resurgence is met with challenges as Romi Jade faces a public trial orchestrated by the elusive Twilight Fist, a shadowy cult with a vendetta against the Jedi Order.

As the trial unfolds, various threads delve into the intricate layers of the Jakku Jedi Enclave's history and climate, exploring the academy's role as a bastion of advanced Jedi training and the dynamics of its characters in relation to each other, and in response to the scenarios that spawn from the narrative. The narrative expands further with the mystery of Lady Tenebrae's true identity, weaving in the intricate web of political intrigue, familial ties, and personal vendettas.

The central plot pivots on the Twilight Fist's nefarious plot to rid the galaxy of Force users by unleashing the Nameless, creatures that prey on the Living Force, posing a dire threat to Force-sensitive beings. The narrative unfolds through multiple perspectives, written organically, following characters like Jend-Ro Quill 's investigation into Romi Jade's trial, Lossa Darcuhl and Briana Sal-Soren having to suddenly lead the Enclave in Romi's absence, the Prophecy of the Four and the resurrection of old enemies, and the journey of padawan learners studying the ways of the Jedi against the harsh backdrop of the Jakku desert landscape along with much much more -- this all being concurrent and interwoven into the larger stories being written on the board.

"Shadows of the Force" invites participants to contribute to the faction's narrative in any way they feel, each thread and character adding a layer to the evolving story -- it could take a twist or turn at any moment. The immersive setting of Jakku, with its vast desert landscapes and canon history, serves as a canvas for the unfolding drama, providing a backdrop that resonates with the essence of the Star Wars universe.

Ultimately, the collaborative efforts of contributing writers drive the narrative towards a collective outcome, the culmination of shared creativity and storytelling, that makes sure they all leave with something in the end. "Shadows of the Force" isn't just a story; it's a dynamic, living entity shaped by the community's passion for new and old Star Wars lore, where the fate of the Jakku Jedi Enclave hangs in the balance, waiting to be shaped by the voices of those who dare to wield the Force of their imagination.​

Romi Jade's Public Address
The Jakku Jedi Enclave
Regarding Jedi, Understanding, & A Step Forward

e6dOMbo.png

There is no doubt that there's been a quite a bit of unease lately, we've been through a lot in a short amount of time -- tons of unnecessary tension, violence towards one another, raiders attacking and kidnapping the locals, the ongoing war, rapidly expanding the campus... I understand a lot of you feel torn, but I want to ensure you that however you're feeling is alright; this is a safe space to do so.

I've said this before, and I mean it, there's no one here I don't think believes in our sacred and overarching mission as Jedi. And with that, however you see fitting to assist is fine. Your contributions in each way is super important to the work we have to do. Despite what some people may think or not, that's why I found this Enclave. This is meant to be a space to safely find and explore the routes you want to take as it pertains to the Jedi way and how to go about dealing with the issues that plague the Galaxy.

In these walls, that will always be honored, regardless of congregational affiliation; You won't face any judgement. You're all welcome here.

Now, this is a place of learning. Not just about the Force and the Jedi way, but about the Galaxy. Respect for civilization, your brethren, and the inhabitants of this Galaxy force-sensitive and non-force sensitive alike, will be expected of you and should be the basis of education here. Control of your abilities, and the safety of those around you is of paramount importance. That requires understanding, and how do we get understanding? Trying things new to us, seeking guidance, examining the past, and absorbing the traditions around us among many things.

You all know I am a woman of action. In that spirit, I'd like to announce the launch of a few new programs.

Enclave leaders across the galaxy have come together with an acknowledgement that existing structures and allegiances are more or less important to different Jedi, but that regardless of pique, opinions, or prevailing political and strategic winds, there should always be a cooperative connection between Jedi academies, and that the Jedi principles need to be protected as well as freely discussed in independent and non-political spaces. We'll be working together to create new Jedi who can make moral judgments on their own and have options of different environments that prioritize different skills, Code interpretations, and degrees of allegiance, but all within the bounds of Jedi tradition.

This new mechanism, will be implemented immediately across several active academies with access to a vast array of knowledge found all across the Galaxy.

You all will be provided stipends from a generic diversified investment fund founded by House Arenais which Jedi of any affiliation may withdraw credits for the purchasing of resources or payment of temporary residence, travel or any other services required.

And you all will be provided the opportunity to register for a new exchange study abroad program with the Levantine Astronautical Academy. In collaboration with the Rimward Trade League, Spacers Guild, and Commonwealth of Worlds, students will learn the finer points of navigation, exploration, starship engineering, command, tactics, diplomacy and the sciences. Enrollment is set to begin soon.

These programs are effective immediately.

"I think we all know that Tarrlok isn't easily swayed from his convictions, and his views on anyone who challenges his beliefs are low."
― Unknown





Tarrlok is a Force-sensitive Chagrian Jedi Master who serves as a senior member at the Jakku Jedi Enclave since its restoration. A Jedi recruiter, probably one of the most unpopular positions in the Jedi Order throughout its history, garnering the bulk of the anti-Jedi sentiment that plagued the citizenship of the Galaxy, Tarrlok studied data and used his abilities and skills to locate potential students; He helped administer and oversee the Aptitude Test students needed to take for admission. During his tenure as a Jedi Master, he's generally characterized by his brusque manner, stern demeanor, cautious disposition, suspicious nature, and enigmatic ambition. Though he was pessimistic and cynical, Tarrlok strongly believed in the program at the Enclave, he wished for all his students to be strong, capable Jedi.

    Chapter I

    Tarrlok, emerged from the mysterious depths of the Unknown Regions, where he spent his early years exploring the uncharted territories of the galaxy with his Master, who was an archaeologist. His encounters with various species and cultures fueled a sense of caution and suspicion that would later shape his character. The traveling in his youth made him use to conducting his training at various outposts, and wayward facilities.

    Despite being a student of ancient history and an explorer at heart, something fostered by his Master, he still pursued the path of a guardian. He was drawn to its tenets, finding clarity in a path that skirted the edge between discipline and enlightenment. His exceptional Force sensitivity and unwavering commitment propelled him quicky through the ranks, eventually earning him the title of Jedi Master; in his seniority, he grew more ambitious.

    Tarrlok's journey was marked by encounters with ancient artifacts and forbidden knowledge. The whispers of the Force guided him to the Jakku Jedi Enclave, where he sensed both opportunity and unrest. Using his skills and abilities to work in administration as a recruiter, the eventual sudden disappearance of Master Romi Jade presented a vacuum that Tarrlok, with his calculating mind and ambitious nature, aimed to fill. The duality of his demeanor, characterized by a stern exterior and a cautious disposition, masked the complexity of his motives. As the shadows deepened within the enclave, Tarrlok's background remained enigmatic, a canvas painted with experiences from the uncharted corners of the galaxy.

The Levantine Astronautical Academy was the board's very first NFU-skill-based academy drawing inspirations from Ender's Game, Starfleet Academy, Saganami Islan. It's re-introduction and facilitation will be managed by the collaborative efforts of the Jakku Jedi Enclave, Rimward Trade league, Spacers Guild, and Commonwealth of Worlds.

Students enrolled learn the finer points of navigation, exploration, starship engineering, command, tactics, diplomacy and the sciences. The Academy has been under reconstruction for several years until it was finally re-opened with several donations and volunteers from several organizations who formed and make up the Synergism Star Compact.

Several competitive exchange programs have been developed with the Jedi Enclave Network and many accredited military institutes across the Galaxy. Visiting professors and exchange programs expose students to the finest starfaring traditions from across known space. A semester in the Levantine Astronautical Academy uniform is an achievement; graduation is a hallmark of true success. Our graduates can serve in the Frontier Corps, Outer Rim Development Corps in conjunction with the Rimward Trade League, and various other naval and exploratory forces throughout the galaxy.

The Academy works as a sub-group and is based on Dac in partnership with the Commonwealth of Worlds, and you don't have to be joined with the Jedi Enclave, or any other faction if you want a character to enroll in the school. Program running is done by various NPC's, with class activities and adventures initiated by students and PC instructors. If you want to learn Levant patroller skills, without having to fully subscribe? Then the Astronautical Academy is just the thing.

This is a way to:
  • Bring diversified learning to several groups IC
  • Provide creative spaces for unaffiliated/affiliated characters, especially of the NFU variety
  • Encourage collaborative RP between several minor factions and groups
  • Bring past creative works back into live RP
  • Train and provide an IC answer to the destruction in Wild Space as a outlined in the Synergism Star Compact



FAQ:
  • Do I have to be a Jedi at the Jakku Jedi Enclave or a members of the other factions mentioned above to join the Academy?
    • You do not have to have write a Jedi to participate. factionless characters, members of other factions, or the ones mentioned above are welcome to participate in all public threads and events related to the Academy. Your IC rationale can often be an exchange program etc. While this is a sub-group of the Jakku Jedi Enclave, the Academy is located elsewhere (see below) and is an open, collaborative effort between the factions/organizations mentioned above to bring about an inclusive space for RP.

  • Where is the Academy located?
    • The Academy will be based on Dac for now until the space station is built.

  • Does my character have to wear the uniform?
    • Yes, when in class and on training missions. Free time, like in the Blind Jump Cantina, is yours to do with as you wish, so long as you don't disgrace yourself. The edge of the chest patch is color-coded to your status. Green edge is new recruit, red edge is junior, blue edge is senior, no colored edge means instructor or staff. If you're an exchange student or guest teacher from another faction, feel free to wear your other uniform.

  • Is this a Force academy?
    • No. This is a lot closer to Starfleet Academy than to a Jedi Academy. We're focused on 'NFU skills' like command, tactics, science, engineering, diplomacy and navigation. Force-sensitive students often work with private tutors on their own time, learn to use their talents to augment the skills they study here, or spend a 'semester abroad' at various Jedi training centers if they are interested. We offer no classes in Force abilities or lightsabre combat, though our students learn how to react to enemy battle meditation and other Force-related hazards. Using the Force to give yourself an edge in class competitions is cheating, and we have Force detectors.

  • Who teaches, PCs or NPCs?
    • A variety of NPC and PC teachers will be available. Feel free to invent your own NPC teachers, so long as they're plausible. Oswaft Station and cadet field missions are primarily setting for the stories you want to write. Though you're encouraged to keep your Academy-related thread trackers up to date, and your progress is noted, the primary focus of this faction is writing engaging stories as students and starships' crewmembers.

  • Can I be an instructor?
    • Absolutely, within reason. If your character has some relevant experience and a good reason for being involved, feel free to play a visiting professor, either in core subjects or specialty seminars. If you enjoy it, stick around and we'll work something out.

  • Who sets the missions? Will I be able to go off on my own adventures?
    • Our approach here is very freeform. Create and execute whatever training missions you see fit, within reason. (The Academy is not going to send a ship commanded by cadets to go tackle a major Sith incursion.) We'll also run group training missions, short-term or ongoing classroom threads, and/or location-based threads depending on demand.

(Credit to Jorus, Jaxton, Seydon and co for the original idea. This was a product of their creativity, and I am only using the blueprint they left behind)

"For a quarter of a standard century, the Jade family has
had a role in galactic affairs of all kinds."​
― Unknown​





The House of Jade was a Force-sensitive Human bloodline whose first known member was High Republic Era Jedi Master Avar Kriss. With strong familial ties to organizations like the Jedi Order and Hapan Royal House, the clan likely contributed members to both the Old and New Jedi Orders and likely the ranks of Sith Lords. The House of Jade rose to prominence on a galactic scale starting in 852 ABY, and several upon several generations later has remained prominent in galactic affairs, having impact or a part in major historical events for the next 50 years.


HISTORICAL INFORMATION

"He was looking at Romi Jade, one of the most infamous or
famous Jedi in the galaxy depending on who you asked."​
― Ador Horn​

Born around 262 BBY, during the time of the High Republic, Avar Kriss was taken into the Jedi Order as a child, brought to the Jedi Temple on the Republic capital world of Coruscant. As a Padawan she developed a strong connection with fellow trainees Stellan Gios and Elzar Mann. During her time as a Jedi, Kriss worked within the frontier of the galaxy; she accomplished many great deeds in her career. During their time as Padawans, Kriss and Mann had an intimate relationship that Kriss later grew out of; Gios was also said to be involved in the intimate side of the friendship as well. It was speculated that Kriss may have returned to one of these previous relationships, conceiving a child with either Mann or Gios, birthing what would become the House of Jade.

Several thousand years later, Romi Jade, a descendant of Kriss was born into poverty on the Core World Corellia. She was the daughter of a shipyards worker, and Hapan entertainer. She was the product of a volatile relationship, it was full of infidelity and violence, and both of her parents were functioning spice addicts. This ultimately created an unsafe environment for Jade, ending with her being taken by Joza Perl who recognized the child's force-sensitivity. Though, despite the rough start to her life, Romi went on to become a legendary Jedi Master and celebrated hero in her own right.

Romi married Johannes Inkari, Duch'a to House Inkari, and the former Chume'da to the Hapes Consortium. Their daughter, Cortana, was born soon thereafter. Cortana is Force-sensitive, having inherited the raw strength of the Jade family bloodline through her mother. As a result of its members already-legendary accomplishments and royal bloodline, the Inkari-Jade clan became a notably popular grouping in some circles at the time of their union.


LEGACY

"She was much stronger, both mentally and physically,
than he had expected. "​
― Rhane Varless​

A defining trait of the House of Jade bloodline was its deep and profound connection to the Force, they were naturally gifted with extraordinary psychic strength and clarity. They had the natural psionic potential to read and control the minds and thoughts of humans, animals, and other sentient beings and excelled when it came to disciplines of the mind.

For some the Force manifested as music, like hearing the song of life and death and able to sing to it in return. Kriss possessed the rare ability to detect the natural bonds between other Force-users and strengthen the

connections through a network, similarly to a communications network. Her descendants would also manifest the rare Force power that was an application of telepathy to allow a user to detect the natural bonds between Force-sensitives and connect the individuals' minds through the Force. The ability was inexact in its connection, able to transmit mostly only sensations along its system. Nevertheless, it was faster than speaking, as an effected Force-sensitive could feel the opinions and emotions of others after suggesting a strategy. With a great amount of concentration, a user could employ a version of this network that allowed them to have a much deeper connection with the beings around the individual. This was known as the Song of the Force.

Members of this bloodline also naturally possess strong life-forces, enabling them to survive and endure much more while likewise able to recover from injuries and exhaustion with much better efficiency in shorter periods of time. General abled-bodiness, and good stamina reserves are highlights in their genetic code.
