The Spacepiress of Chaos
Factions are never an easy thing, even with an idea as solid as the Order of the Righteous Flame. It has been brought up in the past and for a time was part of the original write up of the Faction. Though the Order of the Righteous Flame was kept as a purely Non-Force User group, due in part to how many other Factions were just inundated with Force Users of all kinds. I felt that in order to preserve the uniqueness of the Order of the Righteous Flame it had to remain completely Non-Force Users only, though as it was brought up once more recently, I began to question and think on that fact.
The Order of the Righteous Flame can remain unique, a Monastic Order focused on Non-Force Users fighting Force Users, whilst also permitting some Force Users within their ranks. However, this can provide for more story within the Order, even more so when those few Force Users permitted to join are held and leashed by the Non-Force Users of the Order. The Order of the Righteous Flame was heavily inspired by and taken from the Templars and other similar organizations from the Dragon Age Series. Thus, it is only fitting that it continues to draw from that inspiration. While instituting a "Circle of Magi" for Star Wars would be a bit out in left field, there are other organizations that can fit the need, specifically the Saarebas, and thus I present to you the following addition to the Order of the Righteous Flame.
In effect, the Saarebas are Force Users born into the Order of the Righteous Flame (A question that was brought up earlier as to how those Force Sensitive members born into the Order would be treated). They are seen as Dangerous, and thus are trained and treated in such a way to reflect their status as "Dangerous Things". They are viewed as the "Ultimate" weapons by the Order of the Righteous Flame and thus would be unleashed when a particularly strong or powerful Force User is overwhelming members of the Order.

Organizations:
- Saarebas: An ancient word whose literal translation means "Dangerous Thing". The cycle of life is one that continues at all times, and even with the Order of the Righteous Flame being a strictly Non-Force Users organization, the inevitability of birth will at times produce a Force Sensitive child to members of the Order. Thus they are known as Saarebas. They will be taught the ways of the Order of the Righteous Flame, though their Force Powers are not trained. Rather they are suppressed with the use of special armors and chains to prevent them from utilizing the Force. Each Saarebas is overseen by a member of the Order known as an Arvaarad, which literal translation means "Holds back Evil".
