Jukre Star Sailors

The Jukre Star Sailors, often known only as the Jukre, are a Kotala Force tradition. Heavily oppressed by the Dark Jedi of the Isen Star Empire, very few Jukre openly follow their religion.

Jukre religious practices include long, sometimes convoluted voyages of exploration and pilgrimage through uninhabited portions of the Cyron system. Since first contact with the conquering ISE in 6 ABY, these voyages travel across far greater distances.

A few Jukre have joined the Patriots, but the majority avoid it, for two reasons: the inclusion of Darksiders, including Matthe'i Salphoris, who oppressed the Jukre on Shun's orders; and the Patriots' military leanings. The Jukre are pacifistic, concerned mainly with exploration and service. A devout Jukre Sailor will not touch a weapon. Their ships, solar sailers using propulsion technology similar to that of the Gree Enclave, are unarmed, and a devout Jukre will not travel on a military starship if it can be avoided.

Jukre Force techniques and religious rituals are one and the same, and very sacred to them. They seek insight from the Music, for example, to seek out routes for their travels, or places where they are needed. They refer to the Dark Side as 'Dissonance'.
