- Description:
Commenor, formerly a world under the reign of the One Sith, is no stranger to those versed in the Force, both Dark and Light. Since establishing it's independance under the leadership of Lady Kay and now in the absence of the Council of Elders, The Order of Commenor is to protect and to serve the monarchy and the people where typical military tactics are to fall short. Loyal, first and foremost to the leadership of the planet, the Order's primary goal is to deter violence both within and outside of the trade system.
Playing host to a great diversity of Allies, while the Order can be compared most closely to that of the Jedi upon first glance, the morales and integrity of it's foundation seek to define a balance between the lightside of the Force, and the Dark. Recognizing that without one, there cannot be the other, this desire to maintain a peaceful balance will also seek to compliment the affiliated worlds and difference of beliefs whom seek to work alongside the monarchy of Commenor in both trade and military essense.
SOCIAL INFORMATION
- Hierarchy:
The Monarchs of Commenor having final say in all decisions regarding the Order of Commenor, rather than holding a council per say, the Order has been structured to prioritize the people under Commenor's governance. Knights of Commenor are often sent out on diplomatic talks with other worlds, or to support allies in matters of conflict, wherever the residing leadership so decides they're best needed and can best serve their sector.
Master:
Masters of the Force and of themselves, they are scholars of life; truly experienced in their dedication to training, there are no more powerful members within the Order of Commenor than those few Masters. Once ascending from the rank of Knight, Masters are considered to be among the governing members of the Knights of Commenor, working to advise the Queen through collective and mutually agreed upon decisions, they oversee all things within the Praxeum ranging from training to the support they are giving Commenor and her neighboring worlds.
Knight:
The backbone of the Order of Commenor and the front line defense against others practiced in the Force that would seek to do harm or injustice against the Commenori People. Commenori Knights have proven their skill over the years to ascend to the rank of Knight, undergoing Trials to then become eligible to train students of their own whether class based or taking on a personal apprentice and moving the cycle forward. For a member of the Order of Commenor however training never ceases and even as a Knight, they continue to learn and grow in their power that they might stand-fast against the tides of war that pollute the galaxy.
Padawan/Apprentice:
The Apprentice years of life in the Order not signify your progress as a rising student of the Force but so too make you eligible for the private mentorship of a Knight or Master. The terms Padawan or Apprentice are decided based upon the type of mentor you're paired with (Dark or Light in Force Alignment), however the position remains the same where you will begin to take on more complex studies in the Force, learning abilities such as Force Lightening for example (Something we'd not teach younglings), and so too taking part in activities outside of the Praxeum grounds. Such roles include voluntary law enforcement service - Peace keeping duties and the like.
Initiate:
New Entrance members to the Order of Commenor undergo a short few years as Initiates where they are taught the basics while being resided over by the general Knighting Body of the Praxeum on Commenor. It's these crucial few years where the students form the basis of which their future in the Order will draw from. Their interests in subjects and their prowess within study of the Force itself. Gauging their capabilities, should the Initiate choose to remain with the Order and dedicate themselves, they will move to the rank of Apprentice next.
- Membership:
It is the hope that the Student years of learning can be paired together with a member of the Knight or Master body of the Order though to ascend to the rank of Jedi Knight, one is not restricted without the mentoring of such. In order to become eligible for Knighthood, they must first pass the five Trials: Skill, Courage, Spirit, Flesh, and Insight; the same procedure that the traditional Jedi Order once followed though unique to the individual given the Order of Commenor's inclusion of students wishing to follow in the alignment with the Darkside of the Force. Naturally upon completion of these trials it will fall to the Masters of the Order to come together with their fellow Knights and decide on the students future (an OOC vote taken by the Faction: Commenor as is typical for Chaos).
- Dogma/Doctrines:
The pursuit of Peace and fairness, democratic society is the end goal of the Order of Commenor, seeking to support the ruling Monarchy of the trade world and endeavor to see those other worlds within Commenori space protected and upheld by the standards set by government. Where the Jedi of the Republic sought to be distanced from the government there, the Order of Commenor has direct affiliation with all forms of government here, holding no power over the ministers or monarchy itself but rather serving them as a secondary defense and enforcement of law in the sector.
Beyond this is the study of the Force itself, for they like many others recognize that the Force is above all else, a power and presence to be respected yet too one to be practiced in the possible aid of the community, the members of the Order spend a great deal of their initial years within the Praxeum/Force Enclave learning to hone their abilities and seeking to establish themselves before being put out in-front of any potential threat to Commenor, made certain that they are experienced to hold their ground and stand with their heads held high for the Commenori people.
- Curios: N/A.
- Goals:
⦁ Create mission content for force users to partake in (ie. Faction threads - peacekeeping missions, faction progression threads etc).
⦁ Defend/Support Commenor.
⦁ Defend/Support Allies of Commenor.
Simply put, to establish a Force Order upon Commenor that will serve as the Planets aid should we be threatened by invading forces/factions. This Order is to compliment those of a nuetral stance, accepting of all backgrounds of Force Users provided they are willing to defend the World/Faction's independance and chosen direction.
Specifically, I hope to give Force Users more content to Rp across Commenor itself. Given a good number of interested parties, we can go ahead with the setting up of an Enclave (Training students, Knights etc) and then perhaps opening the door for further involvement with our allianced factions.

HISTORICAL INFORMATION
The Order of Commenor was founded by [member="Veiere Arenais"] during a time of expansion for the formerly smaller world of Commenor; once a world of which governed itself, the Queen and her ministers of office have since reached out to the other worlds within the sector and by doing so raised concerns in the attention they might gain from outside governments. It was during these months that Veiere Arenais, a former member of the Jedi Order of the Galactic Republic, holding contacts too within the Silver Jedi Order and having worked reluctantly alongside Sith and rogue force users in the past decided to attempt to bring about an Order focused not on the light nor the dark but to encompass the teachings of the Force as a whole presence, guided by morale character and virtue.
