Summary
|
The Chu'unthor (the Cerean word for "academy") was a praxeum ship designed by Cerean Jedi Fin-So-Rowan and Human Jedi Ivixa Delbaeth. The ship was built in orbit around the planet Abhean by Republic Fleet Systems circa 400 BBY. Its primary function was as a spacefaring academy for groups of Jedi apprentices, and it operated under the command of a number of Jedi Masters before crashing on the planet Dathomir in 230 BBY. The Academy aboard the Chu'unthor produced several powerful Jedi, including Easal Mar and Ainvar ul-Esca—the latter later pursued a mission of diplomacy and exploration, negotiating a truce on Qualtrough, and making first contact with the Elathan. The ship was quite large: it measured two kilometers long, one kilometer wide, and at least forty meters tall. A command pinnacle in the center of the ship housed the majority of the non-Jedi crew, with the sublight and hyperdrive engine array mounted directly aft. The Chu'unthor could accommodate 10,000 Jedi students, and contained hundreds of exercise and lightsaber-sparring rooms to hone each student's concentration, form, and body. Workshops were provided for the construction and maintenance of lightsabers, while meditation chambers gave students and masters alike a place to contemplate the nature of the Force and further their mental discipline. A medical wing contained hundreds of rooms used to teach Jedi healing arts to young students, both for use in the aftermath of battle or accident and to aid the physically or mentally impaired. The ship contained its own extensive library with texts covering the myriad of Jedi teachings, advanced and theoretical science tomes, historical annals, literature from across the galaxy, and encyclopedias covering the galaxy's languages, art, and culture.
