1. What is going to happen in your plot?
My Jedi, Wyck, will lead a task force of Jedi Knights to Tython—amid dangerous Force storms and lingering Exile abominations—to recover lore, holocrons, and precious artifacts of the Jedi Order from the demolished Jedi temple. However, Wyck has also learned that Master Thalia Corliss of the Jedi Council lost contact with the Order while she herself was visiting Tython. As part of his mission, he intends to search out, locate, and rescue Master Corliss and bring her—along with the recovered Jedi artifacts—back safely to the Jedi Library on Ossus.

2. What other players will be a part of this?
@Lavi @Wit @1new6 @Brandon Rhea @Dakota @Bran @Rylan Morscül

3. Where are all the places (if more than one) that your plot will be taking place?
All of it will take place on the planet Tython. We will be visiting the ruins of the Jedi temple, as well as the immediate surroundings.

4. Please provide a basic in-character timeline of what you expect to happen.
  1. Arrival — The Jedi will arrive as a group, a mile or so away from the Jedi temple in the old training yards, and clear away any remaining Exile abominations that still wander through the area. From there, they will decide on two teams; one of which will pursue the lost lore of the Jedi in the temple, while the other goes to look for the missing Jedi Master.
  2. Search — In separate threads, both groups will venture to their goalposts: the Lore group to the temple, and the Search group to the mountainous wilderness surrounding the temple grounds where Master Corliss was known to have lost contact.
    The Lore group will face even more dangerous abominations within the bowels of the crippled Jedi temple, whilst the Search group will face temptations in the form of dark side hallucinations and illusions, a consequence of the imbalance in the Force on Tython. At the end, if both teams succeed, they will finish the thread having located their charge.
  3. One Last Test — Having found their charge, both teams will find that all is not what it seems. The Lore team will discover a monstrosity of some form—by far the worst of the Exile abominations still alive (i.e., some sort of creature, like a mutated rancor)—as they try to leave; their taking of the Force-powerful artifacts will have disturbed its slumber. Now they must find a way out! Meanwhile, the Search team will find that the strong imbalance on Tython has taken its toll on Master Corliss; as a result, she has become a danger to herself and the team! They must find a way to save her without seriously harming her, and bring her back to Ossus for treatment! If successful, both teams will make it out of their "adventure zones" safely and with their charges intact.
  4. Reunion and Escape — This thread will be a short one with all participants together again. They will reunite at their ship as another Force storm begins to whip up in the area, a result of all of the activity brought about by both groups. They must secure their charges aboard their ship and escape before the storm can strand them on Tython forever!

5. What do you or your character hope to achieve with this plot? What is the "end-game"?
Wyck hopes to promote more unity among Jedi. For this reason, Jedi other than Consulars (like him) have been invited to join. Furthermore, he hopes to recover things he thinks will make the Jedi strong again: a member of the Council and lost Jedi lore from the Tyhonian temple. The "end game" is that, as a result, he builds a reputation with those he has brought with him and it makes his journey towards Jedi Master all the more plausible.

7. Do you need any involvement of canon NPCs or faction leaders to be DMed by a staff member? If so, please detail who/what and for what purpose.
Yes. We will need Jedi Master Thalia Corliss. @Arclight has agreed to DM for this plot.

I just meant that the artifacts (tomes, books, old holocrons, etc.) might have residual Force energy attached to them as a result of being in a Jedi temple. There are examples of this in canon and such, but they won't actually have powers that can be used.
