GATEKEEPER UPON BEING ACCESSED BY A YOUNGLING:
"Pay attention, young one. The Knowledge within contains the essential tools you will need for the Light to guide you properly." (The only time it's voice is less harsh is when a Youngling accesses it.)
GATEKEEPER UPON BEING ACCESSED BY A NOVICE: (Statement alters if accessed by a Novice that has built up their discipline by accessing it's contents previously. Statements continue to alter if accessed from youngling to master with a single user)
"Another of the unsculpted. Pay attention. My patience for your sort is NOT infinite."
OR
"Speak. Perhaps you are closer to answers than you realize."
GATEKEEPER UPON BEING ACCESSED BY A KNIGHT:
"Access my secrets if you must but know this: You will never master them if you remain on the grounds of a temple and nowhere else."
OR:
"Yet again, you return. Yet again, I am at your access."
GATEKEEPER UPON BEING ACCESSED BY A MASTER:
"Ask away, Master. Your questions will quickly give away whether you ARE a Master or just a Politician with a Lightsaber that survived long enough to be declared one."
OR:
"For your eyes only. Only for you. You see what no one else can see."
Note: The following are excerpts and description of its contents.
SECTION ONE: THE LIGHT SIDE
Security Level: Youngling to Padawan
GATEKEEPER'S INTRODUCTION:
"The full power of the Light Side is only for those who place their unwavering faith in it. Only in this can one achieve true enlightenment and their full potential. Steel yourself and sneer at any notion of 'Potentium'. The path is harsh. Brutal. It judges. It will leave you bitter and empty and full of questions along the way. No journey is perfect. But you must adhere to it. Only a true Jedi is fit to combat the Darkness of the Sith properly."
OR:
"When you were young, and your heart was an open book..." (Very rarely plays for repeat users, and never more than once)

(This section details basic philosophies of Light Side practitioners, why the Light is better than the Dark, and how to achieve clarity with it. Unsurprisingly, for such a harsh gatekeeper, it does not resort to the sentimental, feel good language used by other Gatekeepers in other Jedi Holocrons that talk about the Light Side. Here it is discussed in terms of harsh, cold assessments of its benefits and costs, and the risks someone has to take in order to achieve enlightenment, and seems to subtly espouse the belief that the Light can and does go out of its way to punish the particularly recalcitrant, treacherous, and exploitive with ironic punishments. Secondary interests seem to include ancient history and poems, along with journals)

HISTORICAL INFORMATION
This Holocron was discovered in the mountain ranges of Kara-Shehr, hidden in a cave. It is the Holocron Nathan created in his old Jedi Identity, not that he would willingly admit it in his current state of mind. A powerful Light Side Relic, It's Gatekeeper is infamously strict as it is enigmatic. The knowledge within is described in coldly rational formal language, stripped of sentimental musing. Donated by Mirialan Natives, The Holocron's power quickly drew enough attention to put it into the highest security possible within the Enclave, all but ensuring Nathan will never see it without strict supervision...or unless he throws caution to the wind and just takes it.
One thing is clear to any Jedi just from casual study of the device: The one who created it possessed a terrifyingly high esoteric Knowledge of the Force and Strength to back it up...
- Intent: To create a Holocron for Jakku Enclave Members to access and to build up story lore around Nathan
- Image Credit: https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Tedryn_Holocron
- Canon: N/A
- Permissions: N/A
- Links: De Lifte Family Jedi Order
- Holocron Name: The Kara-Shehr Holocron
- Alignment: Light Side
- Origin: Created by Nathan Bloodscrawl when he still went by the alias Morris Crownwraithe, this was crafted during his original life, quite some years before he would lose everyone he cared about, hidden away on Kara-Shehr .
- Affiliation: Recently discovered and kept in the vaults of the Jakku Jedi Enclave
- Gatekeeper: The Gatekeeper appears as nothing more than a floating version of the Jedi Order's classic Symbol, with a harsh, electronic voice that gives no hints about the person who made it. Even back then, Nathan was exceptionally cautious, to the point the Gatekeeper outright refuses to identify it's creator, or give any personal recollections of its creator's experiences except in the most basic, vague descriptions of certain incidences. It is also an unusually harsh and unfriendly Gatekeeper for a Jedi Holocron, and while it doubtless knows it's subject, it has no tolerance for whatever shortcomings it's user possesses, harshly rebuking them for any perceived cockiness, stupidity (It responds to perceived stupid questions with truly vicious sarcasm), or unjustified self righteousness in their responses to it. Because of this, it is considered one of the most frustrating Gatekeepers of a Holocron that any Jedi Archivist or Council Member could interact with. It demands nothing less than the most serious dedication to the subject matter, and it will lock out the user for any perceived lapse in morals or judgement, remaining locked until a Jedi of sufficient purity touches and "resets" it's security parameters
- Description: Contains a vast, encyclopedic knowledge of particular offensive and defensive Light Side Force Powers as well as the secrets of Imbuement of Items with the Light Side. Morris was seemingly uninterested in communicating the secrets of combat by Lightsaber
DEFENSES
- Accessibility: You need only touch it to access it
- Security: The Gatekeeper does not suffer fools gladly. It will lock a user out if it's asked what is interpreted as a foolish question. It senses greed, and lust for power, and refuses to show such users anything, unless it judges them as a candidate to be turned. Active Dark Side Users who it deems a sufficient threat, it emits a highly destructive blast of Electric Judgement that's capable of possibly destroying Extremely Powerful Dark Side Users. It's aura is so powerful it could disrupt the connection to the dark side of any user who holds it. Long term proximity, could result in a form of "Reverse Corruption" for such users. It even affects Light Side Users in a similar manner, it's aura powerful enough to potentially influence how a Jedi thinks and behaves for hours after access, influencing them more and more the more they Access it. To top it off, the Holocron has been so heavily imbued it is nearly indestructible, even to the most extensive attacks from the Dark Side.
