Ossus[5] was a planet[3] located in the Auril sector[2] of the Outer Rim Territories[1] that was affiliated with the Jedi Order. Certain scholars surmised it was the location of the first Jedi Temple ever built, although Ahch-To, Coruscant, Jedha, and Tython were also candidates. At the very least, Ossus housed the Great Jedi Library and a temple at some point, from which a mosaic floor was later salvaged and transported to the Order's newer headquarters on Coruscant.[3]
According to the Qel-Droma Epics, Ossus was decimated during the Cron Supernova, when the Sith Lord Naga Sadow triggered stars in the Cron Cluster to become supernovae.[2] The Chronicles of Med'eeth were salvaged from the remains.[5] It was the homeworld of Veris Hydan, a scholar of Jedi and Sith lore who served as advisor to Emperor Palpatine during the time of the Galactic Empire.[4] At some point, Jedi Master Luke Skywalker explored the subterranean ruins of Ossus and discovered the original Rammahgon text, which was thought to have been destroyed over five thousand years beforehand.[6]
Behind the scenes[edit | edit source]
Ossus first appeared in the Star Wars Legends continuity as a planet that was used by the Jedi Order.[7]
