Species: Khawchaxlk

The Khawchaxlk are a near human species with chalk white skin and black markings. The black markings appear to be random. In general, the markings are black stripes which are most visible in the face, but they appear as shades as well. So far no genetic correlation has been found regarding the shapes and shades of the markings.

A Khawchaxlk is fully grown in 9 years, but mental development generally continues for another 20 years or so. Their lifespan is typically 50 to 60 years, but a rare individual is documented to have become over 85.

They are skinny and nimble, with a typical height of 1.5m making them not very strong but good at acrobatics and hard to catch.

Planet: Dawkeraah

The planet Dawkeraah has a strong connection with the force. It is mostly overgrown by thick forests and there are no mayor cities or space ports.

Society: Sangkmhpa Mí

The Sangkmhpa Mí are a society of forest villages spread across the forests of Dawkeraah. They live mostly isolated lives. Both from the universe as well from the other villages. The villages themselves from tight bonds though, with strong relationships and a great sense of groupthingy. Most of their culture revolves around old remnant pieces of jedi knowledge about the force. Eons ago, jedi established temples on the planet. In time due to reasons unknown the jedi disappeared or abandoned the planet temples, but their old teachings remained. Now the People from the Sangkmhpa Mí teach each other the old lessons from the jedi and try to live as close to the force as possible, although over time, due to the lack of actual jedi, many lessons might have been slowly shifted away from their original teachings.

In a village, the most important person is the eldest person, the Kèa Thisud. He or She has the most experience and therefore he teaches many lessons and gives direction to the course of the village.

An important part of the Sangk religion, is the maintenance and reverence of the old jedi temples. Entering a temple is an important aspect of the coming of age rituals. The young adult is given special mushrooms and hallucinating inducing tea and upon entering the temple he can experience all kinds of experiences, which are believed to be a display of person his destiny.

Jedi Character: Mira

At her coming of age ceremony, Mira experienced a great many things, easiest explained as: Space, fear and power. Upon continuing her lessons from her village, it was discovered that she could apply some of the lessons as she was force sensitive. Within a few years, she learned everything she could from her Kèa Thisud and she decided to follow her destiny. As she realized that there was so much more to learn about the force, Mira decided at the age of 11, that she wanted to become a jedi. Therefore she had to leave her village behind and seek out other worlds.

She gained one of the few starships from her people and set course for space. The starship was from an unlucky merchant who arrived at her village the day she was born. He got sick and died but the Kèa Thisud believed it to be destiny so she kept it for Mira for the day she would claim it. Mira didn’t know where to go or what to do, but let the force guide her actions as she set a course for hyperspace. Upon entering Union territory, hungry, dehydrated and tired Mira crash landed at the front door of the jedi temple where she was nursed back to health and adopted by the jedi.
