Telos Holocron

The Telos Holocron was a holocron of a typical design crafted by adherents to the Sith Order at some point prior to the Golden Age of the Sith. Intended to be a repository of the lore and wisdom that defined their philosophy, the holocron was passed down through generations of Sith Lords after its creation, many of whom imbued their knowledge within the device. A number of the Lords became gatekeepers of the Telos Holocron, lending their image and voice to the repository as a simulacrum that future users could interface with. In 40 ABY, the New Jedi Order discovered the Sith holocron and quarantined it within their academy on the Outer Rim world of Ossus. While investigating the device, Jedi Master Tionne Solusar learned that its most recent gatekeeper was Darth Sidious, former Dark Lord of the Sith and Galactic Emperor.

The Sith holocron contained testimonials from numerous Sith Lords from varying points in galactic history, including Ajunta Pall of the Dark Jedi Exiles, Naga Sadow of the Sith Empire, Darth Bane, founder of the Order of the Sith Lords, Darth Revan and Sidious himself. While a number of the entries were in regards to the history and plight of the Sith, others were more focused on dark side practices and teachings of the arcane powers that could be accessed through the Force. While it was in his possession, Sidious made several additions to the repository based on his own experiences, and contributed addenda to the entries of past users in order to update the holocron with more modern references. In the year of its discovery, Master Solusar was able to unlock the device and transcribe its contents into a manual on the Force that she was crafting for future generations of Jedi.
