The Crimson Ember was established by the former Acclivis Draco Quaestor Mune Metsukai Isradia, during the Seventh Great Jedi War. It was formed to give the Obelisks formal training for the battle that was sure to come. | |||
Shortly before the Seventh Great Jedi War began, Mune Metsukai Isradia called together his Summit and they briefly discussed the condition of the house, and how each order were to be utilized in the imminent war. It came up that the Obelisks had no real ‘leader’ within the House; no one who was an experienced Obelisk put into a position to help the newer comrades. This was a problem, the Obelisks were the soldier class of the brotherhood, and needed to be battle ready when the time came. It was decided that a battle team for the order should be built. The matter of who should lead it was troublesome. It finally fell to Korbin to lead it. | |||
Korbin, while unsteady at first, rose to fulfill his position with brilliant precision. He would become a leader that could lead his subordinates with military accuracy. During The Seventh Great Jedi War, the Crimson Ember would fight with the tenacity of a frenzied rancor. No one would say they won the war single handedly, but no one would say that they didn’t deliver when duty called. | |||
Unfortunately, the Battle Team closed soon after the war ended. Many believe it was because the team had served its purpose in the war and was no longer needed. Wrong. The Crimson Ember had behaved admirably in the war. So why close it? | |||

It was the test that proved a bit more challenging. | |||
No one knows how the initiations were conducted, for this was a secret. And as no one who was in The Crimson Ember still walks the halls of Acclivis Draco, fact is hard to come by. It is known, however, that prospects had to ‘walk the path of fire’ to join the ranks. There are many theories as to what this could have meant, but one stands above most others and is more widely believed. It is well known that the Obelisks were exceptionally skilled at physical augmentation through the force. It is believed by many that the phrase ‘walk the path of fire’ means literally to walk on fire by channeling the force to your feet to harden them, thereby nullifying the burns.

- History
The Crimson Ember was established by the former Acclivis Draco Quaestor Mune Metsukai Isradia, during the Seventh Great Jedi War. It was formed to give the Obelisks formal training for the battle that was sure to come. Shortly before the Seventh Great Jedi War began, Mune Metsukai Isradia called together his Summit and they briefly discussed the condition of the house, and how each order were to be utilized in the imminent war. It came up that the Obelisks had no real ‘leader’ within the House; no one who was an experienced Obelisk put into a position to help the newer comrades. This was a problem, the Obelisks were the soldier class of the brotherhood, and needed to be battle ready when the time came. It was decided that a battle team for the order should be built. The matter of who should lead it was troublesome. It finally fell to Korbin to lead it. Korbin, while unsteady at first, rose to fulfill his position with brilliant precision. He would become a leader that could lead his subordinates with military accuracy. During The Seventh Great Jedi War, the Crimson Ember would fight with the tenacity of a frenzied rancor. No one would say they won the war single handedly, but no one would say that they didn’t deliver when duty called. Unfortunately, the Battle Team closed soon after the war ended. Many believe it was because the team had served its purpose in the war and was no longer needed. Wrong. The Crimson Ember had behaved admirably in the war. So why close it?
