Well Zeroes never said if it was NuCanon or not anyway I was merely stating as at the start of the NJO anyway a temple exist on coruscant.

Yes but not used by Luke.... well at least not yet (damn canon). Yavin 4 is where Luke's academy was.

So my question is to Zeroes?

What's the time period and are you going with the new canon?

I am now losing interest in this era, like the wind.

It's nu canon and they're setting stuff up for Episode 7. That is what you gotta realise at the time that all the old books were written from the Thrawn Trilogy to Cruicible there was going to be no . So when selling LucasArts George Lucas wrote episode 7 to make the company more valuable.The problem was all the original actors were old and if you followed Legends(New name for EU) then you would have missed out lots of plot. You would likely be somewhere near the events of Darth Caedus and those events all link together with the Yuuzhan Vong war, the Dark Nest crisis and even the thrawn trilogy. That is why they decided to cast it all as Legends/Non-canon. If you actually read theres a nice paragraph where it explains why Palps is using the old Jedi Temple as the Palace and I think it's pretty good.Also don't get me started on Force Unleashed.... Starkiller suffers from a serious case of "Lol game character".

SOOOOOO ANGRY right now....

How are you not angered by that?

Well if he goes NuCanon the old Temple still exists.In Nucanon Palps makes it into Imperial Palace, just finished reading the NuCanon book "Tarkin".

Censored

This shit fucking pisses me off. I guess fuck all the authors and story writers. The freaking Temple was destroyed after Order 66, quarantined, and declared a no-fly zone off limits to anyone. The Force Unleashed clearly shows the temple in ruins also Imperial Palace is NOT the Old Temple.... IT WAS THE LARGEST PALACE EVER BUILT a grand palace that makes the wizard of Oz look like a weak ass. I'm pretty sure it was visible from orbit.... anyways that shit pisses me off...

I have not read Tarkin, though its on my list of books to read. I would love to send an angry letter to that author.

Then the New Jedi Temple has yet to be rebuilt, and Darth Caedus won't be showing up soon.

I suggest this gets clarified. Before or after the War?

Not reallly. If you're pre-yuuzhan vong war their order was big but Luke hadn't yet re-established the council and was actually only beginning to do the one-on-one training like the Old Order. It's one of the main points especially in the first book of the NJO.Though of course technically we're in not in canon so I won't dispute with you if you want to change stuff up :P

The setting is the "time frame before Darth Caedus" so this the after the Yuuzhan Vong War.

-Galactic Alliance, Imperial, and Jedi victory
-Reformation of the New Republic into the Galactic Alliance
-Massive civilian casualties and widespread devastation
-Self-exile of the Yuuzhan Vong species

Following the Yuuzhan Vong war (30ABY), the Jedi academy was moved to Ossus, while the High Council relocated to a newly-constructed Jedi Temple on Coruscant (35 ABY). During the Dark Nest Crisis they numbered over 200 Jedi.

This is our time period before 40 ABY (the time of Caedus) but after 35 ABY.

I'll add more later.

Soraya

Name: Soraya Reem
Gender: Female
Race: Human
Age: 17
Appearance: Slender, beautiful, fair skin, rosy cheeks, pink lips, long brown hair, hazel eyes. She usually dresses in the simple attire of the Mandalorian people, wearing pants, shirts, tunics, and dresses often white in color, though shades of blue. Though she has a wardrobe she may choose pink, red, purple, green, and yellow for formal situations. She dresses for occasion, though she can typically be found wearing her white cloak over her Mandalorian armor in keeping with traditions of her people. She doesn't always wear her helmet unless on missions.



Personality: Kind, caring, and respectful of others--Soraya has gained a significant amount of intelligence over the years due to her love of knowledge, providing her with an amazing vocabulary, active imagination, and an open mind. She is very confident and outspoken in her opinions, and seldom likes being told what to do. Despite all this, she does not have very many friends due to her smarts and being a free thinker. Soraya isn't concerned about hers or other's appearances, and is able to look past how people appear and into their hearts. Soraya is somewhat an independent spirit and refuses to be mistreated, undermined, humiliated, demeaned or controlled by any man. However, Soraya willingly listens to, looks up to and admires her father and master. She is quite obstinate when it comes to stating her points, upholding her opinions, and maintaining her ideas. She frequently dreams about a life of adventure and romance, not realizing that sometimes adventures might take a turn for the worst. Soraya realizes that having dreams is great, but sometimes you need to look beyond them and find what you're truly looking for.

Backstory/History: Soraya never knew her real parents. They were killed aboard a starship when pirates attacked, she was rescued by an old Mandalorian who took her into his clan. Mandalore rich with inhospitable deserts became the only home Soraya knew. Soraya grew up in the domed city of Sundari, learning the language and culture of the Mandalorian people. Her adopted father taught her how to defend herself and trained her to be strong. At the age of eight she began training in military and survival skills; also how to hunt, fish, shoot, and fight. Soraya learned loyalty to Clan Reem, discipline, courage, and respect for her bew heritage. Soraya always worked close with her father on missions and she grew a strong bond with him, teaching her how to be a proficient warrior. He trained her to be disciplined, physically and mentally tough. When she was thirteen, she passed the trial of the verd'goten, a test of acquired skills in fighting and surviving in tradtition of the Mandalorian rite of passage. Soraya loved her father, but she had dreams of being something more than a mercenary's daughter. She would spend her free nights in the city library reading about planets and places she had never traveled, she loved listening to stories of her father's adventures.

After a dangerous job, her father never returned after meeting a contact on the Bog moon of Bogden. Following her senses Soraya pursued after him alone and found him trapped by the moon's ruler. After much negotiation the king agreed to release her old father on one condition: that she must remain his personal slave. She agreed, and began a life filled with sadness until a Jedi came to her rescue after raiding the kingdom. Before suspending judgment on her captor, Soraya surprised the Jedi by defending the king. The king never harmed her and treated her well, though he was a dark man. The Jedi recognized this selfless act worthy of recognition, he discovered her hidden talents of being gifted with the Force, something Soraya knew nothing of. He offered to train her in the ways of the Jedi. She agreed, though she would miss her father, she gave up her life for her dreams to be able to defend the helpless and serve others. She dedicated her life to the ways of the Force.

Weakness: naive, lack of training Force and experience that others have
Strength: Intelligence, Courage, Selflessness
Abilities/Skills:
-Physical endurance, Soraya is a great runner. She loves sports and working out at the gym.
-Fluent in over a dozen languages (being able to read, write, and speak) including Mando'a, Concordian, Kerestese, Aqualish, Huttese, Ryl (Twi'leki), Shyriiwook (Wookiee, though she can't speak it)

Force sensitive cyborgs, like you already mentioned, are not uncommon. Anakin and Luke were cyborgs among the most powerful force-sensitives of their times.... Although Anakin was weakened after he became the cyborg we know as Vader, still a very powerful individual.

I don't think cyborgs have any less of an opportunity than any other force sensitive, they have strengths and weaknesses too.
