- "Certainly a Jedi should know the Code, by word and by heart. But every Jedi is in some fashion negligent, from the lowest Padawan to the highest Master. Consequently, were some to demand, 'What is the true meaning of the Jedi Code?' the Jedi who promptly answered would be rare indeed."

Odan-Urr History
This section is currently under construction.
Founded in 3x ABY, House Odan-Urr became the first Light-side oriented House of the Dark Brotherhood. Needs a little more blurb.
Founding
The Disciples of Odan-Urr established themselves on New Tython under the leadership of Ji, a Gand Jedi, and welcomed into the fold of the Dark Jedi Brotherhood with support from the Dark Council and Darth Ashen, who asserted his influence over the House through his pawn Solari. Under Ji's guidance, House Odan-Urr focused on domestic affairs on New Tython, with particular emphasis towards the Harakoan tribesmen and their plight against the human colonists that had settled on the planet. The Jedi functioned more as diplomats, advisors and mediators, smoothing over the troubles of these times.
Invasion of New Tython
Michael Halcyon, a very powerful Light Jedi Master, felt that his place in the Light Side of the Force lay with House Odan-Urr and he influenced Ji to oppose the Dark Jedi Brotherhood with a Mandalorian army, the Ordo clan. The Brotherhood retaliated in full force, crushing Clan Ordo and House Odan-Urr with all its might, and Michael Halcyon was slain by his brother, Halcyon Rokir Taldrya. Recognizing that the Jedi of Odan-Urr had only a small involvement with Michael Halcyon, Darth Ashen made the decision to spare the House, believing that the Jedi had learnt a valuable lesson: the Brotherhood could not be defeated.
The orbital space station Sanctuary was constructed by Clan Arcona, controlled by a computer system designed by the Seneschal Orv Dessr'x.
Pillars of Menat
The Jedi of Odan-Urr were widely blamed for the destruction wrought upon New Tython by the Dark Jedi Brotherhood. Agreeing to step back from politics, control of the planet was returned to the common people, who elected their own ruling council of representatives. Cy Thuron, whom many viewed as a crazy hermit, rose up as a political dissident, using his charisma to build a strong following and create the People's New Dawn, a political party opposed to the Jedi and the ruling council.
Cy Thuron focused on pro-human sentiment amongst the colonists, and opposed the ruling council whom he viewed as Jedi sponsored puppets. Matters escalated with the bombing of the Ooroo Abbey, resulting in the death of Ji.
Gideon Varos rose up in the aftermath of this as a champion of human rights, leading the ruling council towards
Cy Thuron then led an expedition through the wilderness to an area saturated with the Dark Side, and the human Gideon Varos rises up as a champion of human rights to the human colonists. High Councillor Ji is killed in the terrorist bombing, though recent-ish rumours strongly suggest he survived and has been healing for years, and Drodik then became the new High Councillor.
Bastions of Knowledge
Authored by our own talented Morotheri/A'lora, the Jedi of Odan-Urr were displaced by the terrorist attack. We formed a school of learning, the Arca Praxeum, and took up a role as guardians and advisors - not politicians. A powerful Dark Side artefact was secreted inside the Praxeum, but was stolen by mercenaries who were believed - but never proven - to be under the employ of Cy Thuron. The Jedi managed to defeat the mercenary group and learn hints of a much greater plan.
Horizons
Dark Crusade
Fall of New Tython
The Dark Jedi Brotherhood unleashed war against the forces of the One Sith, and under the guidance of High Councillor Liam Torun, the Jedi opposed the DJB through guerrilla warfare and other non-direct options. During the campaign the Jedi were responsible for saving many lives before we returned home to New Tython. During our absence, however, Cy Thuron employed a large army of mercenaries and decimated Menat Ombo and the main populated continent, Owyhyee, all in one night. Upon our return, the Jedi of Odan-Urr infiltrated the planet and recognized that we could not stop the mercenary army. We tried to rescue civilians instead, evacuating many people including Kaira Rohana's daughter to the Ordain Vonoro Spaceport. There, the young Jedi Knight Elleron Morakei made his last stand against our enemies.
With the refugees and Jedi of Odan-Urr in danger, Elleron tapped into the dark parts of his mind, where a Dark Jedi Master named Denath Ciarus resided (Denath had possessed Elleron years before). Elleron unleashed the wrath and hatred of Denath against the mercenary army, terrorizing them and buying enough time to ensure Liam and Morotheri would survive to lead the House. Elleron was then shot and killed by the mercenary forces - or so we assume.
With his rule now more or less unopposed, the Mad King imprisoned Gideon Varos and Whenua, the free leaders of the human and Harakoan groups, within the newly-formed death camp of Purity Rock along with any other dissidents and Harakoans the Mad King laid his hands on.
Renewal of Hope
Recognizing that the Jedi could not liberate New Tython from Cy Thuron's tyrannical grasp on their own, the Jedi of Odan-Urr infiltrated Talus and seized control of a small army of ships and droids. Repurposed to suit our own purposes, the Jedi of Odan-Urr continued to gather their strength, forming an alliance with the Bothan crew of the Nebulus-class Star Destroyer Fey'lya's Last Stand. Guiding by the Force, Liam Torun found a hidden planet on the edges of known space. Naming the new planet Haven, the refugees of New Tython settled there in a makeshift town called New Menat, and the planet was used as an assembly point and stash for the trophies of war which the Jedi of Odan-Urr would win, both through our infiltration of Talus and through our guerrilla actions in the Dark Crusade. Finally, after months of preparation, we were ready to take back our home.
Tides of Freedom
The Knights of Allusis were captured by a band of mercenaries on the planet Varonat, and imprisoned within Purity Rock. Leaping to action, Strike Team Ooroo infiltrated Purity Rock and freed the Knights of Allusis.
Return of the Light
With the might of the NSD Fey'lya's Last Stand and the conviction of the righteous, the Jedi of Odan-Urr invaded New Tython. Strike Team Ooroo disabled the Sanctuary space station and the Knights of Allusis invaded the planet. Liberating one city after another, the Jedi relentlessly assaulted the Mad King Cy Thuron's armies, freeing city after city until finally, only Menat Ombo remained. Fuelled by the deaths of Jonuss Rai and Tur'el Sokar, Liam Torun defeated Cy Thuron in a duel and Cy fell to his demise. Crippled and dying on the street, he finally came to his senses in his last moments before the Titan of New Tython stomped him into oblivion. The factions that had joined the Jedi, and the Jedi themselves, drafted the Treaty of New Tython and became signatories to it, pledging that each group would operate as a sovereign nation under their own jurisdiction, and that each would work towards the future of New Tython.
