GENERAL INFORMATION

• Holocron Name: Grand Tour Holocron
• Alignment: Light
• Origin: Created by Jend-Ro Quill
• Affiliation: Order of the Selab
• Gatekeeper: Tilon Quill, a colorful, contrarian, anti-establishment Jedi Knight and explorer. Most traditions represented are 'in their own words,' and while the Tilon persona is the most interactive, it is more of an index rather than the main event. Most interaction with the holocron involves recordings of teachings and demonstrations.
• Description: A standard holocron containing the records of the 'Grand Tour,' a voyage of connection and community-building between many enclaves and traditions.

DEFENSES

• Accessibility: Will open to the Force-attuned or Force-sensitive.

CONTENT INFORMATION

• A wide range of Light-oriented Dathomiri Witch practices, teachings, skills, and perspectives.
• Characteristic skills of Force-sensitives among the Temple of the Beatific Razor insurgency tradition, including self-healing, increasing a body's acceptance of cybernetic implants, and stealth, particularly silence.
• Extensive knowledge of the interaction between plants and the Force.
• Characteristic skills of the Order of Shasa: perceiving deception, Progenitor's Call (channelling weird whalesong to interrupt focus or strengthen oneself), Waveform (enhanced Force pushes and waves, especially in water), fira blade combat, and underwater combat.
• Basic knowledge of the White Current, a Light-oriented Force tradition that has none of the standard abilities but creates strong illusions.

HISTORICAL INFORMATION
The Wake of Balmorra set out from Jend-Ro Quill's house at Ferryman's Reach on Pagodon. It went back and forth between the Kattadan Enclave and a Barabel Jedi enclave, then visited the Order of Shasa in Ahto City, multiple locations in the Kyrikal system (the Temple of the Beatific Razor on Hundred Hundred Hab; a secret site inhabited by Fallanassi and Ithorian nature priests; and the Levant Watchtower); the Outer Rim Judges' office, the Jadeite Retreat, the Vonnuvi Jedi Enclave, two locations on Dathomir (the Enclave of Magick and the Force and a village of the Blue Coral Divers Clan), a witch enclave on Chandrila just before the Imperial invasion, and the Ashlanti Elysium.

At each stop, the ship brought on or disbursed supplies, trade goods, instructors, and junior and senior students. With only five passenger berths, most of the ship's complement spent the voyage on short-term cots in the cargo holds. Jend-Ro Quill created the holocron during the voyage and added to it as the voyage progressed, with the aid of passengers and the communities visited.

Over two hundred unique passengers set foot on the Wake of Balmorra over the course of the voyage. It would have gone longer than fourteen stops and around a hundred thousand light-years if not for the Galactic Empire's conquest of the Core Worlds; the Wake then transitioned into service as a refugee and evacuation ship.
