Prologue

The Jedi Council had summoned all Jedi Knights and Masters to the Great Hall in the Jedi Temple for an announcement.  As Rael Zorah milled about in the crowd, he espied his friend Daric Rae, his scarred face making him stand out even among the plethora of Human Jedi.  Daric was 10 years Rael's junior and ever since Daric had been discovered at age 10 had looked up to Rael as an example.  Now he waved Rael over.  When Rael approached Daric, Daric asked, "So, what do you think this big announcement is about?"

"It's interesting they'd call the entire order in for it," Rael responded.  "What grave news could they have to announce?"

Prologue

"Well not everyone," Daric pointed out.  "Notice there are no Padawans or students here."

Before their conversation could continue, the crowd's low murmur died down.  As Rael looked up he could see the Jedi Council appear on the landing halfway up the main staircase.  Foremost of the council were Master Oteg, a small, green tridactyl non-Human that was 300 years old and the current Jedi Grand Master.  Next to him was Rael's former master, Mander Zuma, a 78-year-old Human Jedi archivist.  Standing just a few steps below the Jedi Council on the stairs was Master Phanius, a 58-year-old male Umbaran highly regarded for his intellect and charisma.  Phanius had a smug grin on his face.

Despite the relative quiet in the Hall, Master Zuma waved his hands in the air to draw attention to himself before he started speaking.  "Masters and Knights, we are gathered together to discuss Master Phanius's position within the Jedi Order."  At these words, Phanius's smile grew.  "We need all present to disregard any teaching that Master Phanius espouses and to protect all those not present, especially Padawans and students, from those teachings."  At this point in the pronouncement Phanius's face turned to shock.  As a murmur started to build in the crowd, Master Zuma continued, "We are also permanently denying Master Phanius the privilege of training a Padawan."  At this conclusion Phanius's face had contorted into a sneer and the murmur in the crowd built into a dull roar.

The Masters from the Jedi Council turned and began to walk away, but before they got more than two steps up the staircase, Phanius had an announcement of his own.  "If you will treat me with such contempt," he snarled with venom in his voice.  "Then I abandon the Jedi Order."  The Council had turned back around for this rebuke and Rael noticed that Master Zuma's face was not surprised, but rather etched with sadness.  When Phanius saw that the Council would not change their minds even in the face of his resignation, he stormed down the steps.

OOC: What does Rael do?

"Short and to the point!" Rael whispered in shock to Daric.  "Master Phanius' teachings have been controversial, yet it's surprising they would openly sanction him."

"Well, I think it's because they want to make sure he doesn't pass on those teachings to the Padawans and younglings," Daric pointed out.  "What did he teach that was so dangerous anyway?" Daric asked.

OOC: Master Phanius had exhibited solipsistic traits.  He believed in the idea that his very will superseded everything in existence.

"Master Phanius believed that one's will superseded all.  An extension of our ability to manipulate the Force, all of reality was or at least could, bend to one's own will.  Most importantly, his."  Rael began to slowly move away from the crowd.

“I can see why that would be dangerous to teach. Utterly insane!  Why would anyone follow him?” Daric wondered rhetorically. He followed Rael, briefly looking over his shoulder as Master Phanius stormed out of the Great Hall.
