| == New Jedi Praxeum == | | == Responsibilities == |
| | |
| The New Jedi Praxeum is a training ground built and designed for the sole use of educating Padawans in the great mysteries surrounding the Force. The training gound itself is surrounded by large, stone walls that serve to defend the Praxeum from surrounding dangers, such as the indigenous creatures that inhabit the surrounding forests. The New Jedi Praxeum was originally commissioned by Rollmaster [[Morotheri|Morotheri Mithfaron]] to better serve new Acolytes of Odan-Urr. Located just east of Menat Ombo, the New Jedi Praxeum is a small area with many facilities to accommodate and inspire the learning of young individuals interested in tapping their full potential. This ground is considered sacred for the sake of the knowledge contained within the Praxeum. Many of the various structures located within are ancient buildings of unknown origin converted to libraries, classrooms and training halls built around a glade reserved for the practice of meditation. Regularly, the Rollmaster can be seen wandering the halls and grounds of the Praxeum as he oversees the training of Padawans.

| === Library ===
| |
|
| |
|
| Arguably the largest structure within the New Jedi Praxeum. Similar to Odan-Urr's Great Jedi Library on Ossus, the Library stands as a learning center filled with such things as tomes, scrolls and Holocrons gathered over the ages by Acolytes of Urr. Although only a fraction the size of the original Great Jedi Library while it is under construction, the library in the Praxeum is nearly a replica of the Great Jedi Library in that it is crowned by four large domes. Like the Great library on Ossus, this library also houses a Chamber of Antiquities, although much of the more dangerous artifacts are held at the Jedi Library in Menat Ombo, the Praxeum Library houses a small room of lesser artifacts devoted to the Dark Side. Currently, Morotheri Mithfaron serves as the Keeper of the Chamber of Antiquities. In this position, Morotheri is tasked with seeing to the preservation and acquirement of ancient texts, as well as protecting the Sith Artifacts forbidden to all but the most strong-willed against the Dark Side's temptation. Because of it's size while under construction, the Praxeum Library only currently houses learning materials essential to Padawans. Over time, collections are also swapped with those of the collections currently held in Menat Ombo's Library in order to maximize variety to learning Padawans. Currently, the Library is under construction as it begins to open new floors devoted to the keeping of tomes.
| | === Responsibilities of a Rollmaster === |
| | | *The [[Rollmaster]] oversees the progress of all Master/Padawan pairings, as well as masterless Padawans and develops projects for and with said Padawans. |
| === Classrooms ===
| | *If in a [[Battleteam]], the [[Battleteam Leader]] also assists with their respective Padawans. |
| | | *The Rollmaster also serves as a guide and example, seeking out flaws in the Master/Padawan Program where they can and will continuously update the program with improvements. |
| Dotted throughout the Praxeum are smaller structures devoted to the teaching of Padawans by a designated official. These officials are to instruct new members in such things as the Force as they rise towards knighthood. Each of these classrooms are designed with the tools necessary for each official to fully instruct each Padawan. These officials are often Masters granted permission to instruct newer Acolytes as they tend to the education of their assigned Padawan. Classrooms range from small stone structures to great halls surrounding the library. Here, new Padawans learn the importance of the Jedi Code, as well as the most essential virtues - Patience, Determination, among others.
| | *Duties of a Rollmaster include, but are not limited to: |
| | | **Welcoming all new members into the Clan. |
| === Glade of Meditation ===
| | **Overseeing the progress of all Padawans. |
| | | **Pairing Padawans to appropriate Masters. |
| The Glade of Meditation is situated in the center of the Praxeum. The Glade of Meditation is the centerpiece of the Praxeum, around which this massive training facility had been constructed from the ground up. Considered a wonder of New Tython, the Glade maximizes an Acolytes ability to meditate on the Force through a rare abundance of Force energy. Located in a valley created by a bombardment during the Tenth Great Jedi War, the Glade also stands as a symbol of rebuilding and regrowth. The Glade is essentially a round piece of dry, grassy land at the foot of a towering waterfall, creating a misty effect as a Padawan meditates on the Force. This effect creates a sense of peace within any who meditate at the Glade, enhancing their Meditation as they reflect on their pursuit of Knowledge, or difficult decisions.

| | == Policies and Practices == |
| | |
| == Master/Student Reports == | |
| | |
| Master/Student Reports are essentially emails sent out to all Masters and Students sent out in order for the Rollmaster to be updated on activity and gaining valuable feedback, which will be used in assuring that the Master/Student Program is kept entertaining, efficient, clear and concise. These Reports will often act as a 'guideline' illustrating what information should be sent to the Rollmaster. All Report emails should be replied to directly to the Rollmaster with the information asked regarding both the Program, and your respective Master or Padawan. The Rollmaster will ensure that these Reports are sent out every month to maximize communication with the Rollmaster.

| | |
| == Master/Student RunOns ==
| |
|
| |
|
| Master/Student RunOns were originally planned by the Rollmaster as an activity for both Masters and Padawans to participate in. These RunOns may be anything from the Padawan's training to a mission. The 'theme' of the RunOn may be either discussed by the Master and Student or created by the Master. Depending on length, Master/Student RunOns may be used as Major House Summit Tasks. Master/Student RunOns should also run until the Padawan is promoted fully as a Jedi Knight. If there is interest by both parties, the RunOns will be allowed to continue after a member obtains the rank of Jedi Knight. Should the Master or Padawan be unable to come up with a theme, the Rollmaster may create a basic theme, from which the Master and Student may decide how their story unfolds. | | ===Joining the Master/Padawan Program=== |
| | * New members wishing to join the program must be of the rank '''Novice (NOV)''' or higher. |
| | * Potential Masters must be of the rank '''Jedi Knight (JK)''' or higher. |
|

|
| == Current Pairings ==
| | Applying for the program: The Rollmaster will then provide the member with either a Master Survey or a Student Survey (as appropriate). This will enable the Rollmaster to find a good match for a master/student pairing relevant to interests and availabilities in order to provide a new member a mentor they can relate to. The Rollmaster will contact a potential pairing, introduce them to each other, and confirm that they are both okay with this pairing; the Master will then take responsibility for their new Padawan. |

| |
|
| Padawan [[Revak Kur|Revak Kur]] Master [[Guinevere Deschain]]
| | For pre-arranged pairings (for example, a member wishes to be the mentor for someone they recruited or a real-life friend), both members should email the Rollmaster and express this interest. |
|
| |
|
| Padawan [[Lelila|Lelila]] is currently the student of Master [[Jonuss Rai Sadow|Jonuss Rai]]
| | ===General Rules=== |
| | [[File:Lightsaber construction.jpg|200px|right|thumb|Constructing ones lightsaber is the final step in the [[The Book of Trials|Trials of Knighthood.]]]] |
| | *A Master may have several active students at a time, however this is done on a case-to-case basis and is privy to the Rollmaster's judgment. |
|
| |
|
| Padawan [[Alexander DelGotto|Alexander DelGotto]] is currently the student of Master [[Sa Ool|Sa Ool]]
| | *If a Journeyman does not have a Master but is in a Battleteam, their Battleteam Leader assumes the responsibilities of the position of Master, with the assistance of the Rollmaster. Should a Journeyman not be in a Battleteam and have no Master, the Rollmaster assumes sole responsibility as interim Master. |
|
| |
|
| Padawan [[Zeon|Zeon Blacktooth]] is currently the student of Master [[Kaira Rohana|Kaira Rohana]] | | *General policy for contact is that if a Padawan has not responded for one month with at least four attempts at contact on the Master's part, or if a Master has not responded to multiple contact attempts for two weeks, the member should contact the Rollmaster and discuss their options. |
|
| |
|
| Padawan [[Caleb Sal|Caleb Sal]] is currently the student of Master [[VanWyck|VanWyck]] | | *The Rollmaster has final say over all pairings. Should the Rollmaster find that without dispute a Master is not performing (e.g. failing to respond to student in a timely fashion, treating Padawan unfairly, etc.) the Rollmaster reserves the right to reassign the Padawan to a new Master. |
| | **Training a student is a privilege, not a right. If problems arise with a pairing, attempt to resolve the dispute amicably first, then take it to the Rollmaster if no solution can be found. |
|
| |
|
| Padawan '''Lividius''' is currently the student of Master [[Drodik|Drodik]]
| | '''Remember: The primary aim of the Master/Padawan Program is to have fun!''' |
|
| |
|
| Padawan '''Vladziu Zan''' is currently the student of Master [[Krandon Rowella|Krandon Rowella]] | | === Master/Padawan Reports === |
| | *Master/Padawan Reports are to be completed by the Master and emailed to the Rollmaster '''every 1st and 15th''' of each month, with the Padawan CCed in the email. This ensures that the Rollmaster is kept up to date on any progress a student may be making on tasks (for instance they may be working on a Dark Council project, or halfway through a piece of fiction). This also ensures transparent, consistent contact between student and teacher. Finally, this is a good time for both Master and Padawan to provide feedback to the Rollmaster about the Master/Padawan program and its effectiveness; this feedback will be used to improve the program. The Rollmaster may also provide suggestions based on Promotheus reports as to what a Master or Padawan could be able to do. |
