Description: With the fall of the Republic many of the standardized equipment typically used by the Jedi are no longer available. The JCI was designed and developed by the Correllian Confederacy to serve as a standardized interceptor to be used by members of the Green Jedi Order as well as any Jedi associated with the Jedi Alliance/Jedi Academy Network.

The JCI has many of the standard bells and whistles one would expect on a standard interceptor. However, the vessel also comes standard with a large number of armaments. Additionally, whereas other Jedi Interceptors (e.g., J-1 Interceptors) did not have shields to defend from attack, the JCI does. Including these armaments and shielding comes at the cost of only average speed, meaning it will be easily outpaced by many Interceptor models.

[Kian Karr]

OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION

• Intent: To progress an Soli Baris (NPC character) from Padawan to Knight to aid in story progression for Kian Karr and Gnost Karr's characters.
• ​Image Credit: From this artist.
• Role: One of the Jedi Shadows working under Kian Karr, apprenticed to Koras Qual.
• Links: Original NPC submission for Soli Baris, Some threads she has been involved in: Thread 1, Thread 2, Thread 3, Thread 4, Thread 5, Thread 6, Thread 7

PHYSICAL INFORMATION

• Age: 23 years old
• Force Sensitivity: Knight
• Species: Human
• Appearance: Soli is an athletically built, small framed human woman. See picture above for more detail.

SOCIAL INFORMATION

• Name: Soli Baris
• Loyalties: Jedi Shadows
• Wealth: Like many Jedi, she possesses very little personal wealth but is supported by the Jedi Order.
• Notable Possessions: Her lightsaber she constructed when a padawan, a Jocasta-Class Jedi Corvette, Jedi Shadow Robes.
• Skills: General Jedi skills - not overly powerful in the force. However, Soli is very skilled at stealth force techniques and is very skilled in covert work.
• Personality: Soli is a little rough around the edges - often responding to issues with sarcasm and jokes. She is slow to trust, but when she does her loyalty is unwavering. As is often the case with Jedi who specialize in Shadow work, she can be a bit paranoid.

COMBAT INFORMATION

• Weapon of Choice: Lightsaber
• Combat Function: Soli would not necessarily put herself in the thick of battle but would undermine the enemy more covertly. However, should she find herself in battle, Soli is a skilled warrior who is an expert in Ataru (the IV form of lightsaber combat).

Strengths:

• Stealthy
• Combat experienced

Weaknesses:

• Paranoid
• Specialized - her focus on Shadow training has left her weak in other areas of the force.

HISTORICAL INFORMATION
Soli Baris was a Jedi Padawan that was overlooked for many years due to her relative weakness in force abilities. Due to this, she was overlooked by many Jedi in the selection of apprentices. However, Kian Karr, seeing promise in her intelligence, took her under his wing to train her in the ways of the Jedi Shadows. For several years Soli shadowed Kian Karr learning the skills of a Jedi Shadow, such as force stealth and intelligence gathering. Eventually Soli met Jedi Knight Koras Qual and with some gentle pressure from Kian, the two became master and apprentice. The two worked well together and Soli began to excel in areas she had previously not done as well. While she is still not the most skilled Jedi in many of the force techniques, she has improved remarkably since coming under Koras's tutelage. Now that several years have passed, master and apprentice have agreed that it is time to step up from apprentice to knight.

 

[Gnost Karr]

OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION

• Intent: To create a secret enclave for Jedi to use as a safe house and training location.
• Image Credit: Image from this site.
• Canon: Based on the Eclipse Jedi location from Legends.
• Links: n/a

SETTING INFORMATION

• Base Name: The Eclipse Enclave
• Classification: Outpost
• Location: Eclipse asteroid belt
• Affiliation: Jedi of the Jedi Academy Network/Jedi Alliance
• Population: Moderate
• Demographics: The demographics of the outpost is always in flux given that it serves as a way station and specialized training facility. However, the outpost is manned entirely by Jedi and Jedi droids so as to keep the location secret to all but the Jedi. This outpost could only handle a moderate population and would not be able to serve as a main base of operations given its diminished size.
• Accessibility: Access to the facility is restricted to Jedi and it's location and existence is kept secret. Eclipse as a planet is not often visited, but should it be, it would be very, very difficult to find the base hidden within the asteroid field surrounding the planet. The base is in the most dangerous section of the belt which is very difficult to navigate without instructions from the base itself. The exact location of this base is restricted to those of Jedi Knight or higher, though padawans can be brought there by their masters. There are also security measures in place to try and maintain the secrecy of the location (e.g., no non-Jedi personnel, encrypted communications bounced off multiple relays to scramble where they are coming from, and so forth).
• Description: From the outside the base looks like nothing more than a large asteroid. As one gets closer to the asteroid, you will begin to see a few signs of life there, such as towers and landing pads, though the main structure is located within a depression in the asteroid making it hard to spot until you are right on top of it. The outside is designed to look like a research outpost, in the off chance that anyone unauthorized were to get to that point.

POINTS OF INTEREST

Hangar entrance: located on the underside of the asteroid is the entrance to the hangar. Gravity fields help hide it behind smaller asteroids, but these are moved aside when ships transmit the proper codes on arrival. This is designed to fit Jedi Fighters, with the largest vehicles able to be docked within the hangars being the Jocasta-Class Light Corvette. Vessels larger than this would need to land their vessels on asteroids near by and commute over via shuttle.


Outpost Interior Halls: The halls on the inside of the facility are also designed to look like the typical halls of an asteroid based research facility. This is deliberately done to ensure that should the exterior of the facility be seen or non-Jedi require temporary shelter within the facility, they would be greeted with a typical appearance. Only when entrance to the secured lower levels is granted does the outpost appear like a typical Jedi structure.


Jedi Enclave Interior: Once you progress from the Outpost interior deeper beneath the surface of the asteroid, you come to the Jedi Enclave. Here it is unmistakably Jedi. There are communal rooms with multiple beds for Jedi Padawan to share when at the Enclave as well as individual rooms for Knights and Masters.


Jedi Training Room: Within the Jedi Enclave there is a large training room capable of having multiple Jedi train at the same time. Only one room was deemed necessary, as the number of Jedi on the Enclave at any given time is not high enough to warrant further training facilities.


Conference Rooms: There are also conference rooms within the Enclave that would allow for high ranking Jedi to hold meetings. The could even house a formal or informal Jedi Council should the necessity arise for them to meet in secret.


Archives Access: There is a scaled down Jedi Archives present at the Enclave that allows for Jedi to access many of the needed resources - though it is certainly not as robust as those at the Jedi Temples.

SECURITY
Maximum:

• Ion cannons x 4: These 4 large Ion cannons are stationed around the base to allow for defense from aerial assault. Their housing is built directly into the rock face, allowing them to blend somewhat seamlessly with the surround environment.
• Jedi Fighter squadrons x 2: While the number of Jedi present is always in flux, there is typically enough at the Enclave to scramble two Jedi fighter squadrons in the event of danger. The Enclave itself is typically used to train Jedi Fighter Pilots given the hazards of the surrounding asteroid belt making an ideal obstacle course.
• Asteroid field: The asteroid field itself provides natural protection from many attacks, as the field is large and dense making it difficult for enemy ships to navigate into a position capable of striking the facility.
• Jedi: The Enclave itself is entirely manned by Jedi. Even the outer facility that is designed to look like a research facility houses Jedi Researchers exploring various aspects of the force. Given the high number of Jedi concentrated in a single location, it makes the interior defenses very high.
• Jedi Training & Security Droids: These droids, recently commissioned to aid in the security and training at the various Jedi Temples, are present on the station to provide training as well as defense.

HISTORICAL INFORMATION
With the Jedi of the various Orders united under the banner of the Jedi Academy Network/Jedi Alliance, it was deemed important to establish locations that could serve as safe-havens for Jedi of all factions. To this end, Kian Karr requested resources to construct a secret enclave to provide protection and a resting place for Jedi on missions. Located within the Galactic Core, it was a good way-point for many regions of space. Additionally, given its location within an asteroid belt, it was deemed a valuable resource for specialized Jedi training (such as piloting and combat in low gravity).

This base's existence is known only to the Jedi, even the governments who fund them are unaware of its existence. Money was obtained from each of the Jedi Orders allowing for the dollar amounts provided from each order to be small enough to fall under the radar of politicians. As the facility is manned by Jedi and droids, there is no non-Jedi personnel to be concerned about. Supplies for the base are supplied by the handful of Jedi who constantly cycle in and out of the base to ensure its smooth operation.

The exterior of the base appears to be a research facility, on the off chance that people wander into the asteroid belt to investigate. If you were to enter the base, that impression would be maintained by the entire first level of the base, as it is full of labs and quarters for scientists and researchers (who are present in the form of Jedi researchers). The Verpine Jedi Researcher Pra'ct was placed in charge of the base by Jedi Master Karr who had long worked with the talented scientist.

Once you progress below the first level of the base and into the underground structure of the facility, you discover that it is in fact a Jedi Enclave. Here the facility halls open up into large ornate structures meant to provide a similar feel to a Jedi Temple. There are rooms, both communal and private, to house Jedi on their travels or for those seeking refuge and rest. There are meditative locations throughout and training facilities to provide the Jedi with everything they would need to recuperate from time in the field.

However, given its location, the facility is not only a way-point for weary Jedi, but also a hub of intelligence gathering and specialize training. While not a Jedi Shadow enclave, the illusive group makes use of the base often, using it as a launching point for mission within the core with The Sha Koon often making stops there to provide supplies as well. Additionally, Jedi Pilots enjoy using the facility to train, as the asteroid belt provides an excellent obstacle course and its location is good for low-gravity training.

Jedi Master Shree O'Bal - Force Training

Jedi Weapon Master Zenar - Weapons Training

Jedi Archivist Verona Marst - Archives Help

Jedi Healer Alisse - Healing Training

Jedi Battlemaster Magnus Magnusson - Head of Security

OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION

• Intent: To provide Jedi to serve specific roles at the Jedi Temple of the Green Jedi Order.
• Image Credit: Images came from these websites: website 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
• Role: Support roles that do not leave the Jedi Temple of the Green Jedi - they are instructors, healers, and security.
• Links: These Jedi were previously stationed on Ciomia prior to the fall of the Republic Remnant.

GENERAL INFORMATION

• Unit Name: Jedi of the Green Jedi Temple
• Affiliation: The Green Jedi Order - Correllian Confederation
• Classification: Jedi
• Equipment: They wear typical Jedi robes and carry lightsabers of various forms (e.g., traditional lightsaber, saberstaff).
• Description: Once serving as instructors for the Republic Remnant, these Jedi were left aimless when that faction fell. Kian Karr, who had served with the Republic Remnant for a time, tracked down each of the Jedi through his Shadow contacts and brought them together on the world of Correllia, where they joined The Green Jedi Order. Each of these Jedi have spent years honing their trades, some training pupils in force techniques, others in combat - but they all have seen to much of conflict and war to continue on away from the temple. Now they spend there time teaching and protecting the Jedi younglings and padawans who live or visit the Jedi Temple of the Green Jedi Order.

COMBAT INFORMATION:

• Unit Size: Small - there are only 5 Jedi who are included as part of this submission.
• Unit Availability: Unique (only one)
• Unit Experience: Elite
• Combat Function: Security - this unit does not leave the Jedi Temple of the Green Jedi Order. As such they are not used in combat, least the temple itself is attacked. Should the temple come under attack, these Jedi would use their considerable skills and experience to defend the temple and those who inhabit it.

Unit Information:

• Jedi Master Shree O'Ball: Jedi Headmaster Shree O'Ball is a Jedi Master at the Jedi Temple of the Green Jedi Order. An Ithorian, Shree was born on Takobo and identified as force sensitive at a relatively young age. Seeking out training, Shree was one of the last generations of Jedi to be trained as a Jedi by the Galactic Republic before it fell and scattered into the Republic Remnant. Shree made a name for himself as a Jedi Diplomat, successfully negotiate disputes across the galaxy for many years and on several occasions averted wars. His work bringing peace to warring factions elevated him to his Master status. Kian Karr, who had worked with Shree previously, approached him about joining The Green Jedi. Shree, seeking peace after so many years of conflict resolution, took on the role without hesitation. Shree is known for his calm, steady presence and his ability to see to the heart of social interactions.
• Jedi Weapon Master Zenar: Jedi Weapon Master Zenar is a Cathar Jedi hailing from the planet Cathar. Zenar did not follow a very traditional path for a Jedi. He was sold into slavery at a young age and until his late teens was an assassin for the Hutt Cartels. One day, sent to kill Jedi Master Shree in order to destabilize two warring factions that Shree was in the process of pacifying through negotiations, Zenar was freed from his servitude both to the Hutts and the darkside by the Ithorian. Zenar went on to train, excelling as a Jedi Guardian, his years as an assassin having taught him a great deal of fighting techniques. Upon reaching Master, Zenar requested to stay at the Temple as an instructor, having experienced enough of battle in his days as an assassin and wanting to enjoy the peace and tranquility of the temple.
• Jedi Archivist Verona Marst: Jedi Archivist Verona Marst was a padawan under the tutelage of Jedi Researcher Pra'ct. Jedi Pra'ct, as a friend of Jedi Master Kian Karr, suggested Marst for the role of archivist at the Jedi Temple having never met a more focused researcher previously. Marst is renown among scholars for her insights and knowledge of the various force organizations of different cultures (e.g., Baran Do) as well as for her complete and utter lack of interest in anything outside of her books.
• Jedi Master Alisse: Jedi Master Alisse is a Togruta Jedi Consular who functions as the Jedi Healer at the Jedi Temple on Correlli. Alisse walked the traditional path of a Jedi Consular but was noted early on in her training as having an especially strong aptitude in healing. More importantly, she also has the empathy and understanding so important in those who care for the sick, injured, and dying. Alisse served on numerous missions as a Jedi Knight often in the worst of places. Years of healing and seeing the devastation of war has driven her back to the temple to seek peace.
• Jedi Master Magnus Magnusson: Magnus Magnusson is a large, imposing Corellian male who served on the front lines of many battles from the time of the Galactic Republic, through the early wars of the Galactic Alliance, before making his way to the Green Jedi Order. Wherever a major engagement was, Magnus Magnusson would not be far behind. He is a Jedi Master who bares the scars of many engagements. He is also noted for his grasp of strategy and tactics. Magnus was adamantly opposed to taking on the role of Head of Security for the Jedi Temple, but pressure from Jedi Master Kian Karr, who he served with in several engagements, and the insight that the younger generation of Jedi would learn a great deal from his wisdom and protection, changed his mind.

Strengths:

• Powerful force users
• Powerful warriors

Weaknesses:

• Landlocked - they do not leave the Temple
• Specialized - they are highly specialized (e.g., the force instructor would be very poor with a lightsaber in combat).

HISTORICAL INFORMATION
To ensure that the Jedi Temple of the Green Jedi Order has adequate instructors for their students and security to protect the most vulnerable of them, The Green Jedi sought out Jedi who would serve just this purpose. Kian Karr, having worked with several Jedi instructors in the past, sought them out once more. Each of the Masters were more than happy to take up their roles as instructors and guardians of the Jedi Temple. Their primary function is to ensure that Jedi younglings and padawans receive the training that they need and their secondary function is to ensure the safety of those at the Temple.

The Sha Koon - Location Submission​

​

​

​

OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION

• Intent: To establish the layout, locations, and crew present on The Sha Koon.
• Image Credit: Image is from here.
• Canon: n/a
• Links: The Sha Koon

SETTING INFORMATION

• Starship Name: The Sha Koon
• Starship Model: The Sha Koon
• Classification: Cruiser
• Homeport: None - for security sake the vessel is often not at port and location kept known only to the Jedi Shadows across the various Jedi Orders. As it is a vessel tied to the Jedi Academy Network, it makes use of any JAN affiliated faction ports when resupplying.
• Travel Route: N/A - ship avoids falling into predictable patterns.
• Affiliation: Jedi Shadows of the Jedi Alliance (e.g., The Green Jedi, The Silver Jedi)
• Crew Complement: Moderately Manned
• Notable Crew Members:
  [member="Kian Karr"] - Jedi Master with the Green Jedi Order. Kian has long been a Master within the Jedi Shadows and oversaw the commissioning of The Gnost Dural as well as The Sha Koon, which replaced The Gnost Dural, after the fall of the Republic.
• [member="Jyoti Nooran"] - A Jedi Master among the Silver Shadows, Jyoti is renowned for her skills as a Jedi Shadow.
• [member="Allyson Locke"] - A Jedi Knight, and skilled pilot, Allyson was trained by Jyoti Nooran in the ways of the Jedi Shadows.
• [member="Romi Jade"] - Romi is a Jedi Master who often works with the Jedi Shadows and is the official Shadow liaison for the Jedi Covenant.
• Jedi Master Eliza Ricon - A Miralukan Jedi Master who often oversees the day-to-day operations of The Sha Koon. Acts as an un-offical headmaster of the Shadows training on the ship.
• Jedi Knight Koras Qual - A Selkath Jedi Shadow who often assists in Shadow missions and who spends time between missions aboard The Sha Koon.
• Jedi Knight Soli Baris - A recently appointed Jedi Knight who often accompanies Jedi Qual on missions - The Sha Koon is practically her home and she has a close relationship with Kian Karr and Koras Qual, who both served as her masters throughout her training.

[*]Accessibility: The Sha Koon is a member of the Jedi Academy Network, as such it is accessible to all members of Jedi Orders associated with that partnership. However, access to the vessel is very regulated - with significant security protocols in place making it often tedious to gain access to the vessel. Jedi who wish to train there often connect first with a member of the Shadows to allow them to gain access much easier. The ship also maintains an air of secrecy around where it is located at any given time and where it is going - alternating and randomizing routes to keep it hidden.
[*]Description: From the outside, the ship is large, sharp, and angular. It is designed to maintain as much stealth as possible. It is not designed for combat, but rather not being seen and getting away when under attack. Inside the vessel it is very much arrayed like a Jedi temple, with training rooms and quarters for Jedi to stay in. While all Jedi Temples have security, however, the security aboard The Sha Koon is extreme and, according to some, excessive.
POINTS OF INTEREST

​

• Lower hangars: On the underside of the ship is the entrance to the main hangars. There are four hangars that are used for all typical traffic to and from the ship. These are heavily fortified hangars with only two exits and entrances going out of each into the interior of the ship. Each of these have heavy security checkpoints where vetting and screening is done. This is typically done by both security droids and personnel as well as Jedi Shadows padawans who are on duty to learn about security protocols and using the force to detect deceit.

​

• Top-Level Security Hangar: There is a single hangar located atop The Sha Koon that is used for only the top ranking Jedi (in terms of security clearance; e.g., Kian Karr, Jyoti Nooran). This hangar is only accessible with the proper access codes which open the blast doors. Despite it being used for those with top-level security clearance, there is still a security checkpoint maned by experienced security personnel, droids, and, typically, a Jedi Knight. This hangar is smaller in size, only capable of handling a handful of Jedi fighters or shuttles. This hangar is used as it has access to the Council of First Knowledge Conference Chamber, allowing for the Jedi Masters of the Shadows to meet quickly to discuss Shadow business.

​

• Council of First Knowledge Conference Chamber: the Council of First Knowledge was historically a governing body of the Jedi who oversaw the duties of the Jedi Shadows and who sought to destroy the Sith. The Council of First Knowledge no longer operates in this capacity given the diversity of Jedi Orders across the various governments of the galaxy. While the ultimate goal of the Council of First Knowledge is still to wipe out the Sith threat - they no longer have the authority of a governing body. Instead, they are a group of Jedi Shadows who have obtained Master-rank and who represent the Jedi Shadows of the various Jedi Orders - often acting as liaisons between the Orders and helping to guide joint operations of the Shadows. The Council of First Knowledge Conference Chambers is a secure location from which these Jedi Masters can meet and discuss missions as well as share intelligence. This chamber has significant security measures, such as constantly updated security sweeps that seek out bugging devices as well as Stone Guardians (x2) placed at the entrance of the chamber. These are designed to activate when intruders or those with malevolent intentions pass between them. The Chamber is decorated fairly typically for a Jedi conference room. The only unique characteristic is the transparisteel domed ceiling that allows the Jedi a view of space outside the ship.

​

• Jedi Training Rooms: As The Sha Koon is ultimately serving as a Praxeum vessel for the Jedi Shadows, the vessel comes fully equipped with the training rooms typically needed by the Jedi. However, in addition to dueling arenas and force training facilities, the vessel also has training room dedicated to training the Jedi in stealth, espionage, slicing, and various other techniques that will aid a Jedi Shadow in their duties.

​

• Jedi Meditation Rooms: The duties of the Jedi Shadows often force a Jedi to think and behave in ways that are typically not thought of as Jedi-like behavior (e.g., spying, deceit, assassination of Sith). As such, there is an ever present concern for the well-being of the Jedi who pursue that path. As such, The Sha Koon is home to some wonderfully peaceful and tranquil meditation chambers. These are numerous - with Jedi having access to private rooms as well as larger rooms full of Flora and Fauna that are taken care of by the Jedi and staff of the vessel.

​

• Intelligence Centers: While The Sha Koon's primary goal is in training the next generation of Jedi Shadows, it still serves as a mobile base. As one of the epicenters of what the Jedi Shadows do, there are numerous intelligence operations running at any given time, monitoring communications and reports from all over the galaxy. On a daily basis reports are being poured over and flagged.

SECURITY
Maximum

• Deflector Shields (Ray & Particle) - internal and external
• Advanced Detention Cells
• Advanced Encryption Network
• Stygium Cloaking Device
• Thrust Trace Dampers
• Cystal Gravfield Trap
• Security Personnel
• Jedi Shadows
• Jedi Training & Security Droids
• Stone Guardians x 2

HISTORICAL INFORMATION
With concern over the vulnerability of a Jedi training facility that was tethered to a specific location - Kian Karr commissioned the development of a mobile base of operations and training center for the Jedi Shadows of the Galactic Republic, The Gnost-Dural. When the Republic fell, however, so too did the Jedi Shadows loose access to this valuable resource. To overcome this, Kian Karr - with the aid of the Jedi Academy Network - once more commissioned a mobile Jedi Shadow base of operations. Unlike The Gnost-Dural, The Sha Koon has ties to all Jedi Shadow associated with the Jedi Academy Network.

Like The Gnost-Dural, The Sha Koon is a secretive and secure training center for the Jedi Shadows. Designed to optimize security above combat, the vessel has limited offensive capabilities but has extensive defensive measures, most centered on stealth. A new arrival to the ship might consider the security overkill. There are checkpoints stationed throughout the vessel and a general sense of paranoia is sometimes pervasive on the vessel. As Jedi Shadow are often noted as having this as a personality characteristic, the larger presence of them there helps to amplify this environment. In an attempt to counteract this, the vessel makes extensive use of beautiful and peaceful meditation chambers - both private and public.

Just where The Sha Koon​ is at any time is hard to pin down. The vessel maintains a randomized course, only targeting specific sectors of space when required to do so. Jedi Shadows across the Jedi Academy Network are provided with access to a secure network that is updated with the trajectory of the vessel to allow it to be located when needed. The Sha Koon also acts as a meeting location for Jedi Masters of the Jedi Shadows (the Council of First Knowledge) to meet and discuss missions as well as the sharing of information between Jedi Orders.
