Phase #1

Restructure:

The Restructure and Preparation of Odan-Urr's Guardian Corps.

The Breakdown:

Often recruiting Knights whose first instinct is to protect those in need, reformed in 39 ABY, the Guardian Corps. were reborn in a prosperous age for Odan-Urr. Using their resources to protect those in need while mainly concentrating on martial training and combat, the Jedi Guardians engage in combat more than their compatriots in the Jedi Temple. Tracing their lineage back to the Order's founders on Tython, defenders of the weak who upheld the Galactic Republic through its fall, Guardians are seen as representatives of the Jedi, and well known for their use of the lightsaber.

The History of Odan-Urr's Guardian Corps. is storied, born of contention with their compatriots within the Temple, the Guardian Corps. initially began as a defensive force built between the O.E.F. (The Precursor to the modernized Odan-Urr Space Command Armed Force), Okami Mandalorians, and Tython Squadron, before peaceful times saw those without connections to the Temple return to their daily lives or to postings among the O.U.S.C. in the wake of their immediate urgency. Now, after years of peace time, the Guardian Corps. has trained a new generation of Guardians to rise to the occasion, and serve the Galaxy as their predecessors once had.

The Competition:

While the Guardian Corps. current emblem does lend well to their basis and role as Guardians, it isn't ours to claim. The Guardian Corps. are the primary protectors of The Praxeum and the interests of Odan-Urr's Jedi, directly. Their emblem should serve as an indicator of who and what they are, Jedi, Odanites, and Guardians.

As Jedi, their role is to protect life where possible and defend those weaker than themselves. Their actions and appearance should generally reflect this ideology. While Guardians are often regarded as the Enforcers and Combat-Ready of the Jedi, they also have some of the deepest history within the Jedi Order as a whole, commanding respect stretching through centuries.
