Story oriented thread summary

A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away...


DAWN OF THE REPUBLIC:
GHOSTS OF THE PAST


As war rages across the galaxy, the budding Republic and the Jedi Order have withstood harsh blows from the tyrannical Sith Empire. With Tython's destruction, the once warlike Jedi Army has been reformed, with the Jedi Lord retaking the mantle of the Grandmaster.

Meanwhile, Darth Malon, Emperor of the Sith and master of their Dark Order, has deployed her followers with the command to push forward against their weakened but ever persistent enemies.

Adding their might to the fray, the fearsome warriors of the Mandolorian Dominion now extend their hands across the galaxy, conquering what they can. A taciturn alliance has been formed between the Jedi and Dominion, to face a greater threat.

Now, Jedi Knight Cecil Espaa seeks to form a team of individuals highly trained in the arts of infiltration, deception, and subterfuge, to begin a long war against the Empire. These individuals will be trained and honed as weapons for the Order, the instruments with which the Dark Side will be purged from the Galaxy.


THREAD SUMMARY

"You will serve the Jedi Order by being a silent observer and, when action is necessary, a subtle hand. You will go unseen, employing Force techniques that cloud enemy minds to slip into hostile territory and, when necessary, striking enemies down with deadly efficiency. You will embrace the synergy between lightsaber and Force combat. All will use the Force to conceal yourselves and move invisibly behind enemy lines, as well as learn to use unique lightsaber styles in either an offensive or defensive capacity."

The Selection

A number of Jedi have received requests from Espaa to join him at the Lothal Temple. There, they find a mysterious and foreboding sparring chamber prepared for them...

I believe I would. Between Shadows that is.

I'm not sure what the canon equivalent is but we don't officially have "Jedi Shadows." It's probably just a Jedi who is skilled in Illusions and stealthy things.

I'm aware. But I'm still using the term, until canon provides me another answer.

I believe they were called Jedi Sentinels in Canon.

Hey guys! I really have been the crusher of dreams lately but, something like this needs to be run by the faction leadership team first. I don't want to give away any secrets but we are planning something that would give members an opportunity at this style of play. The way this is set up (after edits) is more like a sub-faction than a mission pack. Any mission pack, even "un-official" mission pack needs to be OK'ed by the faction leadership. We encourage members to write up packs for submission. I would suggest you guys all just have a thread together before walking down this path. You can PM any of us if you have additional questions. (@Wit, @Relent, and @Zenya).

In which case, you are free to borrow elements of this story-brainstorm and place them wherever you wish. I don't expect you'll need to, but just in case.

The way this currently reads is as a sub-faction or a mission pack. Both of those require approval from the faction leadership team, you will need to submit it before this goes ahead. Of course, the 4 of your of free to do a training thread together or any type of thread together. Go hunt some Sith, help some refugees, or have a party. Really anything! A typical Jedi Knight would not have the authority to summon other Knights or form such a group without permission from the Council.
