The Eos Holocron was a master holocron created by Justinian Khyron after the Second Great Jedi War. It has contained the knowledge and teachings of each Dark Lord of the Sith to walk the halls of the Star Chamber since his time. Some Brotherhood Historians believe that Grand Master Khyron found a long lost Sith Holocron, possible the Dark Holocron and after studying from it he created a palimpsest that he would later use to make the Eos Holocron. This Lost Holocron’s connection to both Dark Lord Naga Sadow and Jedi Master Odan-Urr along with the coincidences, like House Naga Sadow being founded in the same year Khyron took the Iron Throne or Grand Master Muz Ashen allowing the Acolytes of Odan-Urr to live under the shroud of the Brotherhood, are evidence it may have been the Dark Holocron that Khyron obtained. Unlike most holocrons the Eos Holocron has many Gatekeepers, each Grand Master that has placed his knowledge or teachings into it has become a Gatekeeper for future Grand Masters to learn from. Engraved along the top of the holocron is the phrase “Ipsa scientia potestas est” meaning “Knowledge itself is power” in Aurebesh.
Physical Appearance
- "Let all who gaze upon this Holocron remember our creed... and tremble in fear."
- ―Justinian Khyron
The Eos Holocron was forged from a rare black Adegan crystal matrix, which was unnaturally treated by Sith alchemy and sorcerous powers and forced to grow far beyond its natural limits. It is pyramidal in shape, resembling other Sith holocrons, and is adorned with a solid cap of electrum, with further strands of electrum worked up the sides of the Holocron to act as a golden framework. The design was intentionally chosen by Justinian Khyron to be a subtle reminder of the true owners of the Holocron; the black and gold trim marks the Eos Holocron as a possession of the Grand Masters of the Brotherhood. The Holocron is unnaturally heavy for its size; it weighs substantially more than a normal human being could possibly lift without the aid of the Force. Stars and galaxies swirl across the smooth surface of the black crystal, moving with a perverse life of their own- an outward sign of the power and knowledge contained within. The overall effect gives the impression that the user is staring into a dark mirror of the galaxy, tainted and twisted by the dark knowledge encapsulated within the Holocron.
When it is being used, the Holocron's appearance changes; the stars swirling across the obsidian surface blaze brightly enough to cast a whitish-blue aura around the user. As they continue to access the Holocron, the stars leap out into the aura to surround the user with slowly drifting holographic galaxies, and the secrets of the Holocron are projected before the user's eyes.
Characteristics
Created by a combination of Krath sorcery, Sith alchemy and the technological knowledge of Justinian Khyron, the Holocron divulges information differently to most other Sith holocrons. Each Grand Master to possess the Holocron after Khyron added the distilled essence of their own knowledge to the Holocron, treating it as a repository for the most sensitive and classified information that the Brotherhood holds. As such the Holocron, unusually, contains more than one Gatekeeper- the knowledge of each Grand Master is guarded by an artifical consciousness of that particular Grand Master, who can choose whether to pass on their teachings to the current holder of the Holocron. One of the first tasks that a new Grand Master, upon assuming the role, must undertake is asserting his dominance over the gatekeepers inside the Holocron, in order to access the secret knowledge of those who came before him and better prepare himself for the challenges of becoming Grand Master.
The teachings vary according to the particular interests and ruling style of each Grand Master; current Grand Master Muz Ashen's contribution to the Eos Holocron details ruling through raw power and his own development of his powers to that end, for example, while the teachings passed down by former Grand Master Aristan Dantes focus on the advantages of stealth and secrecy and the benefits of deception.
