===MENDICANTS (II)===
A cult of Force healers under the Republic, they were politically destroyed by the Empire and now seek to rebuild around their greatest remaining temple.
<br>Turf: The Temple on Amerath (HQ).
<br>NPCs: Ammon (physician, compassionate, changed). Kambree (researcher, cheerful, organized). Kairi (scarred, physician, somber). Tar Hakwson (elderly, ex-pirate, scheming, still secretly smuggling).
<br>Notable assets: A small but dedicated crew of Mendicant physicians capable of healing with science and mystic powers alike. A stash of ancient Mendicant teachings.
<br>Goals: Recover pre-Empire Mendicant teachings (repeat)
<br>Quirks: Each Mendicant takes a strict vow of pacifism, and the cult does not inquire as to the past of their members. As a result their groups can include scarred soldiers and pirates alongside devoted doctors and healers.
<br>Allies: 5th Fleet, Conclave 01, Cobalt Syndicate
<br>Enemies: Galactic News Network
<br>Situation: The Mendicants were an ancient cult of Ithorian Force healers. They refused to aid either side during the Clone Wars, citing strict vows of pacifism, and when the Empire rose they were attacked by Palpatine’s Inquisitors. Their elders were slaughtered and their oldest teachings were destroyed. What remains now is mostly acolytes who managed to escape and people seeking to leave their own pasts behind.
