Four thousand years before the battle of Naboo and the Clone Wars, the Jedi Revan and Malak, heroes of the Mandalorian War (a bloody conflict instigated by an unidentified group within the Unknown Regions known only as the "True Sith"), fell to the dark side and founded a new Sith Empire. Using the ancient Rakatan Star Forge factory, they built a massive war fleet and began attacking the Old Republic. Thus began the second Sith War, later called the Jedi Civil War (and, still later, the War of the Star Forge), a conflict that proved even more devastating than Exar Kun's war as more Jedi fell to the dark side, were killed in battle, or were murderered by Sith Assassins.
Revan was the greatest military genius the Jedi had ever seen. It was through her cunning alone that the Mandalorian Wars had been won, as the Old Republic soon discovered. During the Mandalorian Wars, Revan and Malak had discovered a mysterious force called the so-called True Sith in the Unknown Regions, and were therefore careful to preserve the Republic's shipyards to use against this threat once they had conquered the galaxy.
After an attempted coup by Malak, however, Revan's mind was destroyed and she was captured by the Jedi. She was re-trained in their ways and sent against his traitorous apprentice. Taking up the mantle of Dark Lord, Malak redoubled his empire's offenses against the Old Republic, no longer caring about preserving his enemy's resources. Following a long and arduous quest for the five Star Maps that would lead her to the Sith's stronghold, the new Revan led a frontal assault on the Star Forge. She battled her way through the Forge's droid army and legions of Sith and Dark Jedi. After redeeming Malak's apprentice, Bastila Shan, she slew Malak herself in a final confrontation between the two old friends, allowing the Old Republic to destroy the Star Forge and win the day.
Sadness grew, as Revan told her fellows that she must go to destroy the Sith threat once and for all, leaving no whereabouts of where he went.
Despite this great victory won for the Old Republic by Revan, the galaxy soon grew even darker. Barely a hundred Jedi remained after the Jedi Civil War, and those who did soon found their ranks thinning at an alarming rate. Everywhere Jedi congregated, they were murdered, struck down by an invisible enemy who, incredibly enough, was somehow attacking them through the Force itself. Darth Nihilus, the Lord of Hunger, and Darth Sion, Lord of Pain, were students of Revan's former Jedi Master, Kreia (now a Sith called Darth Traya, Lady of Betrayal), had begun a shadow war against the surviving Jedi. Despite their incredible powers, they did not believe themselves strong enough to defeat the Jedi in the same kind of open warfare employed by Revan and Malak. (Revan himself had disappeared into the Unknown Regions a year after the destruction of the Star Forge, hoping to put an end to the ever-present threat posed by the mysterious True Sith, and has not been heard from since.)
Five years after Malak's defeat on the Star Forge, a Jedi exile who had served Revan as a general during the Mandalorian Wars returned from the Outer Rim to find the Jedi Order virtually extinct. Thought to be the last of the Jedi by Nihilus and Sion, the exile was hunted mercilessly by Sith Assassins from planet to planet as the "last of the Jedi" tracked down the surviving members of the Jedi Council. In the end, several of these Jedi were killed, but the exile managed to turn the tide against the shadow Sith, killing Nihilus, Sion, and Traya in battle, thereby ending their Jedi purge and giving the Jedi Order a chance to rebuild.
Twenty years have now passed and the Jedi Order has rebuilt somewhat. The training center on Dantooine has been rebuilt, and the students of the Exile along with the few remaining masters have trained a whole new generation of Jedi Knights.
But now there is a new threat...
The Republic and the Jedi Order are once more under siege. Convoys have gone missing, entire fleets have vanished, and whole worlds seem to have disappeared from the Force itself.
The Jedi can feel the Force dying all around them. Meanwhile, the Republic has discovered a massive fleet of warships, forming at the Outer Rim. Raiding parties have revealed it to be the coming invasion of the True Sith.
To combat this threat, a small detachment of Jedi and Republic troops have been dispatched to beyond the Outer Rim in a desperate attempt to locate the Prodigal Knight Revan, and bring her back to save the Republic once more.
*takes a deep breath*
Okay, everyone clear? No? Good, then I'll continue.
I need Jedi, I need normal people, I need whatever. The basic set up will be a group of us on a ship for first bit at least, and then we'll see where we go from there.

Name: Delken Brom
Homeworld: Corellia
Species: Human
Age: 25
Height: 6'1
Weight: 180
Hair: Brown
Eyes: Blue
Biography: Born in rural sections of Corellia, Delken lived a short but peaceful life before being sent to the Jedi Academy on Dantooine at the age of 5. Raised since then by the masters, Delken saw little of the galaxy outside of his training. Delken proved to have a natural gift with the lightsaber, reinforced by countless hours of extensive training all resulting in his mastery of the complex Form V. It was for this talent that he was chosen for the mission to retrieve Revan along with his longtime friend and brother-in-arms Ramzu Orlandau.
Delken is sometimes headstrong and prefers action to talk. Determined and confident, Delken remains humble to the Order and the masters who raised him. He is however, very much conflicted on the Jedi Order's stance of inaction and discussion when faced with threats. His readings of the Mandalorian War as well as the Jedi Civil War have shown him times in which the Order has failed the galaxy by being so slow to act. With this new threat, Delken worries that the Order will once again shy away from conflict and once more place the galaxy's fate in the hands of Jedi like Revan.
