Message: <blockquote data-quote="Daiymo" data-source="post: 1073546" data-attributes="member: 2539">(I just erased my reply-so this is take 2. Hopefully itll make sense)1.The  recent Sith War that  ended a year ago after a decisive space battle. These events I reference were potrayed in the Xbox rpg. The Exar Kun war took place about 40 years ago. About 4 years ago a war between the Mandalorians and the Republic ended, so the Republic is war weary. So technically speaking its maybe 3950 or so years before the Battle of Yavin.The most recent war was lead by rebellious Jedi who amassed a huge fleet and conquered many worlds. Many who followed the new Sith were former members of the Republic fleet and fallen Jedi. These new Sith were almost exclusively human, and like the future Empire, discriminated against non-humans.Ive been vague on this becasue I didnt want to spoil the video game for the others. As PCs you can chalk this up to being padawans and relativley isolated from the events. Ill try to go into more detail after the PC release of the game.2. For the most part the Jedi is less codified. Marriage is allowed, but it is frowned upon, because of the complications that could lead to the dark side. The Jedi code is still the same and Jedi are expected to follow this ancient code of conduct. I guess I sort of sped up construction of the Jedi temple-it exists and is considered the temporal and spiritual home of the Jedi, especially since the Ossus Libray has been destroyed. The Order isnt as centralized. There is no standarized method of training and no strict hiearchy. The Jedi Council on Coruscant is thought of as a senior advisory body, but a few other training centers and councils exist on other planets. Jedi of this era are also more involved in the day to day events of worlds, acting as troublshooters, problemsolvers and all around guardians of the Republic (although the Jedi are still not part of the Republic like say, the Armed Forces are and try to stay aloof of the political goings on of the republic). The Jedi Council on Coruscant acts as a "liason" with Republic organiztions like the Senate.The existence of the Temple and the Council may not be strictly canon, but are too good not to use. However, Ive tried to stay true to the Expanded Universe stuff as presented in the sourcebooks.</blockquote>
