The Lost Jedi Temple Inclusion within the Moon of Galtea
PURPOSE:
Secretly Home to a Society of Gray Jedi, those who feel no other honorable option but to dwell as Separatists.
With the recent development surrounding the turbulent expulsion of Jedi Master Ebberla Daw as Grandmaster of the Jedi Council, and the blatant disrespect shown towards her as a fellow Jedi, or for her dedicated service, a number of Jedi of the New Order feel abruptly disconcerted.
Traditionally the elders and the Council should serve as prime examples of the Jedi Code, who stand out above all the rest. The Council meditates to lead the Jedi Order to fulfill the Will of the Force.
Gray Jedi are NOT Dark Jedi. We are not enemies to the Jedi or the Council. Gray Jedi have lost faith in the Council to lead for different personal reasons. Some fear the Jedi Code will become warped over time, and merely seek to preserve it.
It is the suspicion of some within this Separatist group that the inclusion of certain Jedi to the Council have been supported by Jedi of questionable intent, and such inclusion may be a deliberate act designed to cause an irreparable rift among members of the Order. Believing the future of the Jedi upon shaky foundation, these Separatists fear the loss of the Jedi Way altogether, and seek to preserve traditions. Likewise some Separatists associated with the Temple established on the Moon of Galtea adhere to more outrageous fears that the truly honorable members of the Order exalted to Council, may regrettably become exploited as Pawns for a possible hidden sinister agenda perpetrated by others. It is the intent of all involved to be watchful, and to preserve the honor of what it means to be Jedi, in the case that particular Jedi reveal a hidden agenda of our Order's destruction.
While not all involved possess the same suspicions, the Temple remnant also provides safe haven for those who wish to gather secretly, out from under the Council's expertly trained watchful eye. Some Separatists are directly involved in abetting recently organized vigilante groups that have sprung up after the Grandmaster’s overthrow for any number of personal reasons or events, which have encouraged Jedi dedicated to the old ways to act in conscience without current Council permission or awareness, to defend the Way and the Light as they see fit as Jedi.
We are Jedi, who live to adhere to the Jedi Code. We seek unity, preservation, truth, and above all trust.
DISCOVERY:
Jedi Master Lutomi Renelo first discovered the buried Temple established on this moon when approaching it for Science exploration.
LOCATION:
The location can be quite beneficial for those wanting to remain off the grid, as the Galtea System reaches far into the Outer Rim.
MOON DESCRIPTION:
Galtea's Moon has a Type III Atmosphere, and appears to be a hostile unstable planet marred by volcanic activity and tectonic tremors. Geological study of the planet does not entirely support this experience to the extreme it is witnessed. It is highly possible, that the Temple itself is at the root of drastically increasing one’s perception of these devastating anomalies. This discovery by Scientists was forbidden from being documented in any form, Master Renelo believing its hostile environment is a key factor in assuring the safety of the underground base, as many travelers who come across Galtea's Moon simply overlook it as too dangerous and therefore useless for habitation and move on without giving the Moon a second thought.
The area immediately surrounding the underground Temple is mostly barren volcanic rock and soot. Plant life is sporadic, with growth stunted.
Animal life of this area consists of poisonous, scaly, burrowing desert creatures. The total number of species dwelling here is not currently classified, many only venturing into the open during the night hours.
Certain insect species live in mass hordes and erect tall dirt mounds.
The majority of the Moon’s water basin is located near the equator. The year is 277 standard days. The temperature is typically hot, draught is common, with acid rain occurring during monsoons directly related to Volcanic venting. Hot Geysers are found near active Volcanoes. Acid lakes are also common.
There are areas of the Moon riddled with Sink Holes, Quick Sand, mounds of Sulfur and Salt.
TEMPLE SPECIFICS:
RPs concerning the Temple Presence were written with intent to reflect SW Rebels episode Path of the Jedi.
To date the underground Temple remnant is physically unexplored in its entirety by the Jedi who have entered. Scanning of Ship’s Sensors have revealed that the shape of the structure resembles that of the revered Jedi Symbol.
The main dome consists of numerous rooms, and extends out three main corridors. Two corridors on either side adjoin rooms to be used for individual housing or training, while the central corridor leads to a large Hangar. From the corridors and the Hangar, natural lava tubes vent to the surface and can be utilized as secondary launch shafts for spacecraft.
Entrance into the Temple has been achieved through approaching the eighty meter wide dome-shape protrusion, concealed under a thick layer of volcanic ash, then locating and unearthing an erosion covered stone inscribed with Jedi symbols. Immediately after placing a palm upon the slate, the Temple opened up under the Jedi's feet, closing behind them, casting them into complete darkness, while they plummeted down towards the cool stone foundation. A Presence in the Force quickly began evaluating their innermost needs, with intent to bring to light one's unrecognized fears, to be faced in order that one may grow stronger as an individual. It has since been concluded that this Presence does not interfere with every visitor. Perhaps its gone dormant.
After the initial entrance into a pitch-black room, Jedi have witnessed a Tablet of ancient inscription in an adjoining room to be the first to alight encouraging people to enter, the message one will read just happens to be different to each individual. Corridors extend just beyond.
The Temple harbors a working Oxygen Generator, wherein breathe masks are not required.
The Temple’s foundation is unstable, sections of the Temple foundation rest in a bed of rock next to find itself dislodged to someday possibly drop into the volcano. The entire structure should be incredibly hot, but remarkably it is not. Neither are there foundation cracks uncovered within the Temple anywhere.
SHIPS:
Brought from the evacuation of Lamaredd are:
Frigate Science Class-C Zephira
Gunship La Pharoan
Skeleton crew of Starfighters
GUIDELINES:
Acceptance into the Separatists is to be based on the fact that your character position is sincere and loyal, and not willing harm or breech of confidence.
Based on the nature of the Moon, no one will be able to claim to just discover and enter the Temple on their own. All members will have been personally discovered through observation and conversation, and brought to the Temple by the Master's in charge.
Separatists are respectable Jedi of the Order, encouraged to partake in Jedi Missions and make independent investigation into such Council requests. (This is of course is written only for flair, unless you truly suspect your character is being set up.)
The intentions at the creation of the Society are: 1) To protect those of the Council we trust, from being made scapegoats for the actions of those whom may have anterior motives wether true or imagined. 2) We also distrust the Council to be able to properly discern the Will of the Force. Neither do we presume to understand it as we once believed we had.
We open our doors as a safe haven for independent vigilante groups of our choosing, who seek refuge or a way station.
No training or classes take place on this Moon except between those who are Separatists.
ooc: OK, so I've never done this... Certainly need feedback!
