Biography

Jedi TrainingEdit
Trained at the Coruscant Jedi Temple in the ways of the Force, Michael Tandre passed through the Temple academy and was elevated to the rank of Jedi Knight after completing his Trials of Knighthood. Selecting the teachings of the Jedi Consular to continue his journey down the Jedi Path, Tandre elected to pursue independent studies as a Jedi Researcher. Joining the Agricultural Corps as a geologist, Tandre worked with the Council of AgriCorps Masters and accepted missions as assigned to him.[1]
Crash landingEdit
Assigned to journey to the planet of Orellon II and make contact with the indigenous tribes there, Tandre piloted the Alpha Kentrum to the world but lost control of the ship and crash-landed on the surface. Surviving the crash, Tandre encountered the tribes he was searching for and was welcomed into their society. After ascending to the position of spiritual leader, Tandre accepted that he was stranded indefinitely and began to teach the natives the principles of Sword, Plow, and Spirit; a simplified version of Jedi principles. Crafting a series of computer programs from the Kentrum's wreckage, he hoped to preserve his message should he die or be rescued. His followers, calling themselves the Holy Order of the Je'ulajists, based on a mispronunciation of "geologist", tended to their spiritual guide throughout the rest of his life.[1]
LegacyEdit
While rescue never came for Tandre, the man remained true to his Jedi virtues and lived the rest of his days in peace. His followers eventually evolved into a group called the Kentra, preserving his powerless lightsaber as a holy relic called the "Sword of Honor".[1]
