Star Wars: Jedi vs. Sith: The Essential Guide to the Force - Exar Kun kills Odan Urr by Tommy Lee Edwards

[sweetmaniax]

"When a Jedi behaves badly in public, an observer might think, 'If this Jedi is a representative of the whole Order, then plainly no Jedi is worth respect.' On meeting a second Jedi, who behaves better than the first, that same person might think, 'Does this say that half the Jedi are good, and half bad?' On meeting a third Jedi, who behaves as well as the second, the person thinks, 'Was the first Jedi an exception, then?' In this way, only by the good behavior of several Jedi can the public be certain that the poor behavior of one Jedi was unusual. Thus, it takes many Jedi to undo the mistakes of one." ―Odan-Urr

The Code Forbids It

STAR WARS EPISODE I: The Phantom Menace 01:33:52

Odan-Urr's authorship of the Jedi Code was revealed in Canon in the Nexus of Power RPG guidebook, in the "Vault of Justice" encounter on page 128.

More of my own Star Wars AU. Here are the Grand Masters of the Jedi Order throughout its history.

-Awdrysta Pina: aka the Green Blade, Grand Master during the First Great Schism.

-Beil Ductivis: Grand Master during the Pius Dea Crusades, later Supreme Chancellor of the Galactic Republic.

-Odan Urr: Founder of the Great Jedi Library of Ossus.

-Nomi Sunrider: Hero of the Great Sith War.

-Vrook Lamar*: Leading figure during the Mandalorian Wars and the Jedi Civil War.

-Meetra Surik: Rebuilder of the Jedi Order following the First Jedi Purge and the Dark War.

-Satele Shan: Hero of the Great Galactic War, Grand Master during the Cold and Eternal Wars.

-Genarra: Gand master and Supreme Chancellor during the early New Sith Wars.

-Yoda: Final Grand Master of the Old Jedi Order, from the High Republic to the Clone Wars.

-Ahsoka Tano*: Unoffical Grand Master in the early years of the New Jedi Order, representative to the New Republic Senate.

-Luke Skywalker: First official Grand Master of the New Jedi Order.

-Rey Strom*: Hero of the Sith'ari War, former Padawan of Grand Master Skywalker.

-Kol Skywalker: Leader of the Ossus Project.

-K'Kruhk: Member of the Galactic Federation Triumvirate.

*NOTES UNDER THE CUT:

Vrook, Ahsoka and Rey are all exclusively fanon for the purposes of my AU.

The GM of the KOTOR era is unconfirmed, though Vrook is arguably the most outspoken and influential member of the body.

Ahsoka is the most senior Jedi in the Rebellion with the strongest connections to the NR leadership per her Fulcrum days, though she does make a point of her only being a placeholder until Luke gets the NJO built up enough to formally take over.

My plans for adapting the Sequel Trilogy and its characters are kept to myself at the moment, but Rey does grow into a very powerful and prominent Jedi regardless.

All the others are from official continuity. Xo Lahru, Pra-Te Veter, and Ry Ki-Sakka of the High Republic are also in my AU, I just haven't made micros for them yet. Grand Master Zym does not exist in this AU since...well, he sucks. That's all I'm gonna say.

Also, while Odan, Nomi, Meetra, Genarra, Kol and K'Kruhk were never officially called Grand Master in their respective stories, Odan presided over all the Jedi assemblies in TotJ, Nomi was the one spearheading the Order's operations during the Redemtion arc, Meetra was the one who rebuilt the Order following the Sith Triumvirate's purge (and the Revan novel does not happen here), Genarra was specifically stated to be the Order's leader as well as Chancellor in the Knight Errant Gazzetter, Kol is all but stated to be the leader of the Jedi Council before the Ossus Massacre, K'Kruhk was the Jedi's elected rep to the Triumvirate, and frankly all of them are clearly leading the Order at their respective times, so I'm including them.

“What have you done to him?”

“Something Master Odan-Urr taught me. A Force-blocking technique to neutralize an enemy without violence...but I never thought it would be so strong... so complete. And I have no idea how to undo what I have done!” [Star Wars Tales of the Jedi: The Sith War #6)

Deleted Concept For My Time Travel Fix it AU

Okay, so even though this concept is kind of fun, what would be less fun for the Galaxy is a full scale Grysk invasion. And because I wanted a happy ending for my story, I scrapped the concept of said Grysk invasion entirely.

A few weeks before the Grysk War starts, Jedi Masters Sifo-Dyas and Yan Dooku are expelled from the Jedi Order in absentia, because they abducted Masters Vokara Che and Jocasta Nu, Initiates Sabine Wren, Ezra Bridger, Kiren Der, Kyle Katarn, Shira Elan Colla Brie, Wee Dunn, Mara Jade, Hedala Fardi, Galen Marek, Tash Arranda, Belandi Feearr, Reva Sevander, Sors Bandeam, Jeswi Ele, Shia Letap, Lagan Ismaren, Roganda Ismaren, Ana Tathis, Dhara Leonis, Jai Kell, Roo-Roo Page, Katsuni Tamm, Looca B’Nash, Shin Hati, Jarea Kaela, Nonia Daal, Shaskaa Vis, Zoni Arziass, Chatra Varrors, and Sekal Vlahiel, and Padawan Mill Alibeth.  

They also raided all the most important holobooks, holocrons, and relics from the Archives.  The items they stole were the Healing Crystals of Fire, the Great Holocron, the Tedryn Holocron, the Holocron of Destiny, the Heart of the Universe, the Codex of Tython, the Dakshee Holocron, the Holocron of Odan-Urr, the Holocron of Prophecy, Revan’s Mask, Exar Kun’s Lightsaber, the Darksaber, Darth Bane’s Holocron, the Holocron of King Adas, the Dark Holocron, the holobooks containing the Jedi Code, all the Memory Crystals, and a map of the Galaxy.

Learning from the Best

Work created by Shellsweet, please see her creations in the link. Celevon is owned by Celevon.

Celevon stopped and listened. There was something out of place, something that he had not picked up before. Like someone carefully trying to hide among the background noise of the world. It had been on the edge of his senses for some time; as if someone had been trying to hide their movements amid every clank of his beskar armour or creak of aging floorboards under his weight. Yet as he stood in the doorway to his family household, listening to the whine of starship engines powering up on the distant courtyard, he could hear it now. There was a specific pitch, a specific absence, now filled by the careful breathing of someone trying not to be heard. Behind his visor, Celevon closed his eyes and reached out with the Force, probing the nearby environment. He waited, calmly testing the nearby area for oddities before turning and looking directly down at a spot just behind him. "You're not coming." In response, the air seemed to bulge outward. Warping the environment out of proportion, it promptly re-asserted itself, revealing a surprised looking Kiffar child staring up at him. A feeling of uncertainty brushed across Celevon's mind, conveyed through her telepathy. She was asking how he had found her and to clarify his words. "Simple, you did too good of a job hiding in plain sight," Celevon answered, citing the second point first. "And you're not coming." He underlined each word with visuals that she could more easily follow. Through their telepathic link he sent memories to emphasize his point, along with imagery that could be more closely associated with the meaning behind his words. It was by no means a perfect system but, as she was still struggling to understand even simple phrases, it was the easiest way to help Sirra keep track of any conversation. Upon seeing an image of her waiting in the house as Celevon departed, she responded with a flurry of heightened emotions. "You're not coming, because this is dangerous." Celevon continued, pressing through the myriad of retorts that threatened to flood his mind. "This isn't a rescue operation or scouting mission. People have gone missing. If I find those responsible, we'll end end up shooting at one another." He spent a few long moments outlining this point, reiterating it several times when Sirra's uncertainty made it clear she couldn't understand. Inwardly, he was doing his best not to sigh at her. Celevon had accepted her as an Apprentice after her actual mentor, Ka Tarvitz, had struggled to teach the girl any finer point in telepathy. That had been a mere few weeks ago, and on a few occasions, Celevon had even found excuses to have her follow him during safer operations. Given how numerous Clan Odan-Urr's enemies were, the last thing that he needed was to walk headlong into a bloodbath with an inexperienced trainee in tow.  "Sirra," Celevon said, interrupting a half-formed argument as she tried to justify her presence. "Be honest here. If we ran into trouble, what could you do to help?" The world warped, and she disappeared from sight. "Besides that," he sighed. In response, an image entered his mind, of a green and silver armoured figure standing and looking down toward something. It was himself, as Sirra was seeing him in that moment, through her own eyes. "Useful," Celevon admitted, blinking as he tried to suppress the contradiction of visuals threatening to bring on a headache. "But what else-" Before he could finish, she popped back into existence. Both arms were outstretched. One was holding a metal cylinder. A lightsaber of his own design. One which had been hooked onto his belt mere seconds ago. The other held a black metal square that looked oddly familiar. He reached down, feeling for the blaster holstered at his thigh. Celevon's fingers brushed over the open hole where its power pack had been a second ago. He looked down in surprise and then back up at Sirra. She grinned broadly in response. "Smart," Celevon said, chuckling despite himself as he accepted both items. "What the hell, grab your gear. We leave in five minutes."

I need to make my blog less recognizable.

Odan-Urr Disrespect Zone is right in the sweet spot in terms of “makes me chuckle every time I have to find something on my own blog” but it’s also something that *literally anyone* I know would spot as me instantly, while I don’t make jokes about obscure Star Wars lore on here enough for it to be relevant.

Help.

Only like 3 of these are serious options. The trick is finding which ones I hate.

[oh-no-eu-didnt]

The Great Jedi Library was a building located on Ossus, and was the main repository of knowledge for the Jedi Order for millennia. Founded by Jedi Master Odan-Urr, inspired by the peaceful nature of the planet, it contained many scrolls, holocrons, lightsabers, and other artifacts, and doubled as a training center.

It’s T minus 6 days to Halloween! Do you have a costume yet? If not, read on – every day this week, I will provide a guide for how to dress up as an obscure character from Star Wars comics!

Day 2: Odan-Urr, the Librarian Jedi (Sexy Version)

Odan-Urr is the founder of the Jedi Library on Ossus, and therefore a perfect opportunity to objectify the noble profession of librarians. If you can manage to get your nose out of your book, here’s what you’ll need for this creepy-cute look:

1. a skull mask (top half only; there are no jaws in space) 2. sexy librarian costume (teeny skirt, thigh-high socks, unbuttoned vest, etc.) 3. purple robe 4. accessorize to the gods (Jedi jewelry game was on point in this era: tiara, bangles, giant earrings, chains, chunky necklace, the limit does not exist) 5. the original Sith holocron (draw a triforce and cut it out; fold the outer triangles up and tape them together; paint it pink) 6. books (bonus: book cart, the better for Satal to steal from)

Star Wars Netflix series concept

So there’s been some talk in the fandom about a possible Old Republic era based series made by Netflix. Of course, it’d be hard to make a story that wouldn’t be awesome based on the Old Republic, but I want to throw my hat into the ring.

First, let each season tell the stories of a different part of the era. First season can be the conflicts between the Hundred-Year Darkness and the Great Hyperspace War. The Freedon Nadd Uprising, the Beast Wars of Onderon, etc. Season 2 is then about the fall of Exar Kun and the Great Sith War. Season 3 can be Revan’s story (unless we want to make that a movie, which we absolutely do), as well as possibly Zayne Carrick’s problems during the Mandalorian Wars. Possibly can a fourth season be about the events of SWTOR, preferably from the POV of the Hero of Tython and Barsen’thor.

Second, I propose a sort of connecting tissue between the seasons, a narrative element, if you will. Some time after the new movies or during the Rise of the Sith era, a Jedi master seeks to learn of the order’s past, and each season starts with them finding and activating holocrons that relay the story:

I am what remains of Odan-Urr. I will tell you the story of the Hundred-Year Darkness, the conflicts to follow, and the Great Hyperspace War.

I am Nomi Sunrider. I saw the fall of Exar Kun, and lived through the Great Sith War. I will tell you of these events, if you so desire.

I am Bastilla Shan (or Zayne Carrick). I redeemed the fallen Jedi Revan, and I shall tell you his story, and the story of the wars to follow.

I am <Insert name here>, Barsen’thor of the Jedi Order. I fought along side my fellow masters in the Great Galactic War, the Cold War, and the Eternal Conflict. I can tell these stories, so that the order may learn from them.

(Possible bonus: I am Jedi Lord Valenthyne Farfalla. I served with the great lord Hoth in the last days of the New Sith Wars. If you so desire, I will relay the story of this conflict.)

[badger-writes]

Remember kids, a bunch of monks living simply in their temple and not displaying their emotions quite as vibrantly as I would expect because of my extremely narrow and literalist interpretations of one of their mantras are “hopelessly decadent” and this justifies a state pogrom against them which I will now attribute the blame/need for on some librarian from 5000 years ago instead of the evil wizard who subverted the government for the purposes of committing genocide

Star Wars Alien Species - Draethos

Thosa, known to the rest of the galaxy as Draethos, was the home planet of the Draethos species, located in the Wyl sector of the Outer Rim Territories. It had jagged, windswept mountains and deep caves. It was an isolated world of xenophobic people. During the Jedi Civil War, Thosa was located within the space controlled by the Sith Empire, returning to its isolation after Darth Malak's death.

Partly due to their long lives, Draethos society was slow to evolve and relied heavily on tradition. The Draethos was a warrior culture. Those living on the homeworld were expected to demonstrate their martial or hunting prowess. Life on Draethos was harsh, with arrogant aristocrats squabbling among one another for social standing and wealth. Warriors were perpetually in high demand as gladiators, mercenaries, hunters, and soldiers.

Pacifistic philosophies were despised on Draethos. Those who made a conscious decision to abandon the way of the warrior were exiled to seek a new life among aliens. Therefore, paradoxically, despite their reputation as fierce combatants, most Draethos encountered offworld were peaceful and intellectual.

Draethos possessed large teeth, which grew outside of their mouths in what appeared to be an overbite. They also had no lips, further exaggerating the appearance of an overbite. Their scaly skin ranged in color from blue to purple to black. Their hands retained an interstitial web between the fingers. Their fingers ended in narrow tips which resembled claws. They possessed low-light vision, springing from their cave-dwelling ancestors.

A typical Draethos stands 1.8 meters or 5.9 feet tall and weighs 70 kilograms or 154 pounds.

Draethos, warrior and intellectual alike, possessed telepathy, including the ability to communicate with any sentient being in a radius of approximately five hundred meters. The ability was limited to communication; a Draethos could not invade the thoughts of others.

Draethos age at the following stages:

1 - 12 Child

13 - 17 Young Adult

18 - 399 Adult

400 - 699 Middle Age

700 - 780 Old

Examples of Names: Odan-Urr, Omal-Zan, Uval-Nor, Shal-Orl, Tyan-Ruu

Languages: Draethos is an erratic-sounding language full of harsh clicks and sighs. Exiled Draethos also quickly learn Basic and any other languages common to the region.
