|
| |
|
| The First Great Jedi War was a violent struggle between the Clans and Houses that broke out during the first reign of the Dark Lord Khyron.
| | Also known as ''Crystal Dreams'', the Second Great Jedi War erupted in [[11 ABY to 19 ABY|15 ABY]] when a valuable crystal was stolen from the Brotherhood. Thinking of it was one of their own, the clans erupted into a civil war, during which time Lord [[Khyron]] returned and replaced Stryker as Dark Lord. Eventually, it was revealed that the theft was actually orchestrated by Auroran pirates, who were quickly eliminated. The war was won by the then [[Clan Taldryan|Independent House Ektrosis]]. |

|
| |
|
| Known as Crystal Dreams, the Second Great Jedi War was sparked when the Clans received word of a mysterious artifact and signs pointed to having been stolen by one of the Clans.
| | When [[Thedek]] departed as Grand Master in [[11 ABY to 19 ABY|17 ABY]], loyalty to the [[Dark Council]] and [[Star Chamber]] crumbled, and the clans broke out in the Second Brotherhood Civil War. When [[Archibald Zoraan]] assumed the throne, he allowed the infighting to continue long enough to weaken the clans so that they could not challenge his power, at which point he and his Shadow Hand put an end to the fighting. Clan Taldryan emerged as the victor. |

|
| The third GJW was run under the reign of GM Zoraan by DGM Torquemada. Most of the details have been lost to history. Due to the lack of information it was previously confused with the vendetta run by GM Chi-Long, "The Quest".
| | Following the breakdown of the [[Star Chamber]] under Zoraan, Grand Master [[Chi-Long]] sent the clans on a quest in search of the Skin of Fire in [[11 ABY to 19 ABY|17 ABY]], an artifact he claimed had immense power, and hoped it would restore the Chamber's power. During ''The Quest'', as it is sometimes called, the Imperial Remnant attempted to seize control of the [[Dark Brotherhood]], but were disposed of when the Skin of Fire was retrieved, although Chi-Long failed to revive the Star Chamber. |

| | ==The [[Fifth Great Jedi War]]== |
| | |
| The fourth GJW ("The Quest") was hosted by GM Chi-Long. Its title derives from a powerful artifact of body armor which was the basis of the quest. It was previously confused with GJW3 due to the lack of details of that GJW and "The Quest" being documented simply as a "Vendetta" at the time of its release due to the term "Great Jedi War" having fallen out of fashion. The change was corrected in September 2007 and the numbering of the later GJWs updated to reflect this.

| | |
| ===The [[Fifth Great Jedi War]]===
| |
| | |
| The fifth GJW was prepared and hosted by [[Mairin Astoris]] in early 2003, just prior to the split. It remained unfinished after Mairin was demoted by the Emperor's Hammer High Court of Inquisitors and the results are lost.
| |
| | |
| ===The [[Sixth Great Jedi War]]===
| |
| | |
| The Sixth Great Jedi War was prepared by [[Trevarus Caerick]] and [[Jac Cotelin]]. It ran from June to October 2004. Its storyline revolved around an "hive mind" infecting the Brotherhood members. The source was in the end discovered to be related to the Star Chamber.
| |
| | |
| ===The [[Seventh Great Jedi War]]===
| |
| | |
| The seventh GJW ("The Enemy Within") took place from June 14 to August 30, 2006. Building from a mystery situation in which Clans seemed to randomly attack other Clans, even their allies, the plot unfolded to expose the Grand Master as having been split into two by a failed rite executed on him by an unknown source. Loyalties were questioned as the Brotherhood members decided their sides and ultimately split the Brotherhood in two. The warring factions were only stopped from mutual annihilation when Jac Cotelin managed to defeat his other self in a climactic lightsaber duel and a Force Storm. The war comprised 39 individual events.
| |
| | |
| This war was won by [[Clan Taldryan]] by a narrow margin in front of [[Clan Naga Sadow]]. The individual MVP (overall winner) category offered for the first time in a Great Jedi War was won by [[Lucius d'Tana]].
| |
| | |
| ===The [[Eighth Great Jedi War]]===
| |
| | |
| The eighth GJW occured during the summer of 2007 and dealt with the Yuuzhan Vong invasion of Antei.
| |
|
| |
|
| | When a large group of pirates and bounty hunter, thought possibly to be connected to the Auroran pirates who stole the crystal, besieged many clan systems in [[11 ABY to 19 ABY|18 ABY]], [[Shadow Hand]] Mairin Astoris brought the clans together and formed the Alliance of Seven. Together, the seven repelled the pirates, but in turn their growing power brought the attention of the Imperial Remnant, who attempted to court martial Mairin. She fled, an act that drove a wedge between the Seven and the Remnant that would continue until the [[Exodus]]. |

A Great Jedi War (GJW) is a club-wide vendetta comprised usually of several smaller events that tie together into an overall storyline. Clans battle against clans for awards decided by the Dark Council. In Brotherhood history, there has been eight Great Jedi Wars thus far.
The First Brotherhood Civil War marked the first outbreak of hostilities between the clans and houses of the Brotherhood. Under the reign of Khyron, Chancellor Morgoth brought the clans into direct conflict in 14 ABY, for reasons that have been lost to time, although it is suspected that it was due to the Star Chamber's initial intrusion into clan affairs. Clan Satal Keto narrowly emerged the victor, and was awarded the Orthanc for their valor.
Also known as Crystal Dreams, the Second Great Jedi War erupted in 15 ABY when a valuable crystal was stolen from the Brotherhood. Thinking of it was one of their own, the clans erupted into a civil war, during which time Lord Khyron returned and replaced Stryker as Dark Lord. Eventually, it was revealed that the theft was actually orchestrated by Auroran pirates, who were quickly eliminated. The war was won by the then Independent House Ektrosis.
When Thedek departed as Grand Master in 17 ABY, loyalty to the Dark Council and Star Chamber crumbled, and the clans broke out in the Second Brotherhood Civil War. When Archibald Zoraan assumed the throne, he allowed the infighting to continue long enough to weaken the clans so that they could not challenge his power, at which point he and his Shadow Hand put an end to the fighting. Clan Taldryan emerged as the victor.
