Description

Your first memory of arriving still stands clear in your mind's eye:

At or around the age of five galactic standard years, You were found to be force sensitive and given over to the Jedi Praxeum on Ossus for training to replenish the lost Jedi ranks. Planet Ossus is a rich, lush world with many varieties terrain. As you can see when you are flying around and down to the Praxeum. This praxeum is a place to meet away from the influence of the Galactic Alliance government on Coruscant. Luke and his wife, Mara Jade Skywalker, raised their son, Ben Skywalker, in a home on Ossus. Jobs were created on Ossus for the families of Jedi cadets. There are many huge cities around the planet and ancient ruins of past Jedi days, both are off limits to padawan and below.

The shuttle settles gently down and you are lined up with other children. A Jedi in a black robe and hood up, who look upon you all with kind but very old eyes from the shadows of the hood, opens the gangway and walks down motioning you children to follow. As you walk down the plank, you see ahead a beautifully manicured garden and a great arch 100 feet tall with these word going up one side and down the other in beautifully written script.

The Jedi Code There is no emotion; there is peace. There is no ignorance; there is knowledge. There is no passion; there is serenity. There is no chaos; there is harmony. There is no death; there is the Force.

The Pillars of Jedi Strength Knowledge The Force Self-Discipline

The Jedi stops under the arch turns and pulls his hood off and says: "Welcome to the Jedi Praxeum. I am Luke Skywalker. I will be your initiate trainer or Jedikademos. As you train, you will be selected by Jedi to be their padawan. If you don't get chosen, you will not become a Jedi. So train hard and do your very best. Your first lesson is to learn those words by heart. Now follow me to your new home."

Welcome to the game! Above is the commom background for the Jedi Trials game. Note: You can have more background. For example Annikin Skywalker, was a slave early in his life. You too could have some interesting beginnings.

This is where we will start all characters, yes, including Sith. If you wish to play something else, we can discuss that as well. The game will start with a email inviting your character to visit the jedi council on your 21st birthday to begin your trials... But first we have to create a character if your interested.
