New Jedi Order: The Old Masters
Purge Survivors, those who remember a time before the Empire, before the Dark Times. A lot of them are actually very hands off, content to let the new generation do their work.
Anakin Skywalker: Didn’t become Palpatine’s apprentice or slaughter the Jedi at the Temple, but did cut off Mace’s hand, and promptly passed out from shock. Has plastic surgery so he looks relatively normal, and honestly just hangs around and fixes the Order’s ships. Dies 21 ABY, becoming one with the Force to prevent Palpatine’s second attempted resurrection, saving his youngest granddaughter, Shmi, in the process.
Obi-Wan Kenobi: Unfortunately dies in 10 ABY, his adventures and various injuries (especially those caused by Palpatine & C’Boath) finally running him down. Sassmaster to the end. Proves ghosts can cry when Mara names her and Luke’s firstborn after him (Obi Wan, Ben is actually a nickname). Basically became Yoda in his last years.
Ahsoka Tano: Cool aunt, later cool grandma of the Order, and operates the Order’s unofficial intelligence network, which she later hands off to Mara Jade. Ben’s master alongside Cal Kestis. Joins the fighting during the Yuuzhan Vong War and might have to be physically restrained to keep her from fighting the First Order (though there’s a large section of the Jedi who think they shouldn’t bother).
Soaring Hawkbat Clan: Led by K’khruk and Chase Piru, a small community of Force more beholden to the old Jedi’s ways, and somewhat estranged from the much more reformed New Jedi Order. Comes back into the fold during the YZV War, with both K’khruk and Piru serving on the Naboo Council by 38 ABY.
T’ra Saa: A Neti Jedi, taken up exile on a remote world following her husband’s death, but returned to the wider galaxy after being discovered by her lineage descendant, Ezra Bridger. Embarrassing Grandma for Ezra, Pypey, Barratk’l, Jacen and Korto Vos. Sacrifices her life to allow the Jedi to escape the Yuuzhan Vong siege of Yavin 4 in 26 ABY.
Ikrit: A Jedi who served with the Order during the High Republic, who went into a state of prolonged Force Hibernation on Yavin 4, completely circumventing the Jedi Purge. Would be awoken in 20 ABY by Anakin Solo and Tahiri Veila, the former xey would take as xer official Padawan. Would give xer life to allow both xer pupils to escape the siege of Yavin 4, breaking a centuries long vow of pacifism to hold off a team of Slayer Vong and drawing fire from Peace Brigade.
Tallisibeth Enwandung-Esterhazy “Scout”: A member of the Fulcrum intelligence network in the Rebellion, who re-founds the Antarian Rangers following the foundation of the New Jedi Order, and would weather the YZV War before retiring to serve as a mentor and advisor at the Ossus Jedi Temple.
Cere Junda: Cal’s second master, gets in debates with Obi-Wan and Anakin. Forever grateful she lived long enough to new the Jedi born anew. Dies peacefully in 23 ABY. Tionne’s informal teacher and responsible for training new searchers.
-----Old Jedi who didn’t rejoin, yet still stayed close-----
Katooni Muwal: Lucky enough to have escaped Operation: Knightfall, unlucky to be the only escapee to have outlasted the Empire. She would find herself with her old friend Hondo Ohnaka, eventually becoming his right hand...up until she ousted him (he couldn’t be prouder). The Pirate Queen would eventually join the New Republic as a privateer against the Empire and the Yuuzhan Vong, and flirt with the idea, but never commit to, going straight, including trading an apprentice by the name of Sidon Ithano...
Oppo Rancisis: Laying low on the planet he was on during Order 66, by the time of the NJO’s foundation, had found a place in the re-established Church of the Whills, alongside people like Lor San Tekka. Would be a keystone member of the Great River underground refugee network during the YZV War, finally dying at peace on Zenoma Sekot in 32 ABY.
Barriss Offee: Jedi, Sith, healer, killer, damned, redeemed. Barriss’ journey has been a long and fraught one, and her journey to the Light has revealed ugly truths about herself. Yet she continues on, a wandering healer and holy woman, close with the NJO yet following her own path, her only desire to help the downtrodden and heal the sick.
Asajj Ventress: Ventress’ adventures during the reign of the Empire would remain unknown, but by 20 ABY, she would return to the valley of the Nightsisters, maintaining a solemn vigil over her dead people and exploring the Force. Such vigil would be broken, repeatedly, by members of the NJO, until she resigned herself to helping the next one before they began begging.

Peer into my muse’s memories!           Guilt.            Hm. Now wasn’t that a concept Rush was all too familiar with.           As a survivor, it was difficult to be the one that lives- to rationalise           that fate chose you over so many others. Being a soldier to the           Republic, and a survivor of the Great Jedi Purge left Rush with           much in the way of Survivor’s Guilt. It blurred out much of the true           guilt she possessed from the personal wrongdoings that littered           her past.            A specific memory of guilt was tricky for her to narrow down. With           all the bad habits she’d taken up over the years to cope, she had           disappointed many people close to her. Each look from them caused           a pang of guilt in her.                               She had let them down.                                                                                 Again.           Though despite all of that, there was one time she both felt           legitimately guilty, and was found legally guilty by a system she           actually cared about.                                            Poor Rodian bastard. 
          79′s, the night before Operation Knightfall. 
          Celebrating her recent promotion to General of the 3rd Divison,           Rush and her men rejoiced. Drinks, dancing, and humorous           tales from the frontlines.                                            A brilliant evening.           Spoiled by some drunk Rodian who thought that it might be           appropriate to insult Clone Troopers. In a bar that catered specifically           to Clone Troopers.           Safe to say fists and bottles began to fly fast. Rush, caught up in           the moment and the liquor, joined in, diving straight for the Rodian,           challenging him in hand-to-hand combat. The dumbass thought very           little of the buzzed teen before him.                                           Oh how wrong was he.            By the time the Coruscant Guard showed up, Rush was on top of           him, laying blow after blow into his stupid face. Fox just about tackled           her off of him. Only later, in her cell, waiting for her Mother Master,           Shaak Ti, to come and bail her out, did she truly feel the guilt set in           as the alcohol wore off.            Funny.           Her first fight, not on the battlefield, and its the one conflict she feels           the most guilt about.           Still, it was a good night.                                                  Even if there was a bit of guilt attached to it.
