Tython/Legends

Tython was a planet in the Outer Rim. It was the dawn world of the Jedi Order.

It was here that the brightest and best philosophers, priests, and warriors came together long ago to discuss their discoveries involving the enigmatic, mystical Ashla. Dissidents whom used the Bogan eventually arose, sparking the Force Wars of Tython. From the ashes of these wars arose the early Jedi, whose Jedi Forge initiation ceremony led to the invention of lightsabers after they faced threats from beyond Tython. A proactive group left Tython to liberate other worlds, becoming the Jedi Knights. They founded a philosophy school on Ossus, defining the light side and dark side of the Force (equivalent, respectively, to the ancient Ashla and Bogan), and the living Force and unifying Force.

Tython was cleansed of terentateks by the Great Hunt 3,993 BBY.
