History
Force Guardians began as a place for neutral force users to seek sanctuary and to practice the healing arts, offering such healing to the galaxy for free. Originally founded by renowned Jedi Master Davik Kaisho, also known as Vamps, the organization changed ownership many times. At times long past it was also allegedly owned by Eshaar Gnor and Crowe.
Over time the enclave changed. With the ascension of Hondo Walker as leader, the organization became more militaristic in nature and emphasized less its medical aspects. Eventually, Walker formed a spin-off organization known as the Guardian Security Force taking his military crew with him, and handed the organization over to Jason Con without prior discussion.
Circa Year 13, Con attempted to aid a sentient in need of medical care and was captured by Fleur`De Rouge. Refusing to handover his Namana starship, Con was executed. As a result, ownership of the Force Guardians was transferred to Xanxus Drol and the organization became a formal subsidiary of The Guild Bank. Its personnel likewise became paid Guild Members and its operations are now one in the same with the Guilds.
Description
The Medical Corps (or MedCorps) was one of the four branches of the Service Corps of the Jedi Order. Along with the Educational Corps, the MedCorps was one of the smallest parts of the larger Service Corps due to the already widespread teaching of the healing arts. Serving in the Jedi Temple's Halls of Healing, the MedCorps maintained an infirmary there which rivaled the finest medical institutes in the galaxy. At the Temple, the infirmary was especially equipped to heal anyone with severe injuries or in need of specialized healing. Membership within the MedCorps included those Jedi who did not pass the Trials given to Initiates and were no longer eligible to walk the path of the Jedi Knights. Serving mainly as medical technicians or assistants to the healers who roamed the Halls, these individuals were often deployed onto the battlefield during conflicts within the Galactic Republic to serve as triage surgeons. Jedi Medical members are both Jedi and non Force sensitive individuals, all dedicated to bring affordable health care to the galaxy.
