abstract
  • Seeking a suitable place to establish a training center for his students, Jedi Master Vodo-Siosk Baas settled on the Khoonda Plains of Dantooine with the permission of the Galactic Senate. While the Republic oversaw colonization efforts on the world, Master Baas agreed to serve as the Watchman for the system to alleviate the Republic's military obligations. Establishing a small enclave with above-ground facilities as well as an extensive below-ground academy, Baas began taking on students who were selected for their deep connection to the Force and advanced abilities. Strategically placed near the opening of an extensive cave systems filled with naturally occurring crystals essential to the construction of lightsabers, the Enclave was not the first time Jedi had been present on the world. Indeed, in the centuries before the Jedi had established their seat of power on Ossus, members of the Order had erected a temple on the grassy world after their expedition away from Tython. Fully equipped to run independently of the main academy on Ossus, Baas administered the Enclave and oversaw the training of young Exar Kun and several of his peers. As a Jedi Shadow, Baas saw that the Enclave was fully stocked with weapons, armor and other tools used in the pursuit of Sith artifacts and dark side practitioners. Baas' small classes would meet out in the Ancient Grove just southeast of the Enclave and engage in lightsaber practice amid the grassy plains. Alongside Kun, the Cathar Padawans Crado and Sylvar were considered to have the most potential among their peers and thus received the greatest amount of attention from Master Baas. Despite Baas' attentiveness, he failed to detect the darkness growing inside Kun. Attacking his master and disarming, he left Dantooine and later declared himself Dark Lord of the Sith. As war broke out between Kun's armies and the Republic, Baas departed Dantooine never to return as he was cut down on Coruscant by his former student.
