In the years leading to the inevitable ignition of the Clone Wars, and the subsequent fall of the Galactic Republic, a sense of foreboding grew among the ranks of the Jedi. There was a whisper of unease that darkness was on the rise, a malevolent force potent enough to challenge the very fabric of the galaxy and threaten the existence of the Jedi Order itself. The Jedi High Council, found themselves wrestling with a growing fear amongst their ranks. Despite their efforts to quell these anxieties, individual Jedi felt compelled to seek out solutions to this impending crisis, to find a beacon of hope that might guide them through the encroaching shadows.

Some like Dooku, succumbed to fear and the dark side, hoping to stop the cancerous rot that had enveloped the Republic by aiding the Sith. Others managed their fear through faith alone, not only in the Jedi orders invinsibility but also in the deep-seated belief in the ancient prophecy of the Chosen One, a being destined to bring balance to the Force.

The most notable and significant endeavor to safeguard the future of the Jedi and the Republic was undertaken by Jedi Master Sifo-Dyas. Driven by visions of an impending conflict that threatened to engulf the galaxy in chaos, Sifo-Dyas took a bold step by commissioning the creation of the Clone Army on the distant world of Kamino. His aim was clear: to arm the Jedi Order with a fighting chance against the storm that was brewing on the horizon.

However,, there existed another plan to thrawt the dark sides coming rise, and it likely held the potential to seriously challenge Darth Sidious’ coming reign. That being said though, this scheme was highly morally questionable, skirting on the very edge of the dark side it wished to destory. This path was carved by Jedi Master Joris C'baoth, a Jedi who who was so sure of himself he granted himself the rank of master, with the council deeming it best not to argue with him. And Unlike Sifo-Dyas plan, whose actions inadvertently played into the hands of the Sith, C'baoth's strategy offered some hope, a chance to fortify the galaxy against the darkness with the strength and resilience of the Jedi.

In this detailed exploration, we delve into why Joris C'baoth stood as the lone Jedi who might have halted the insidious advance of Sidious and examine the ambitious plan he devised and we also explore how such a plan was hindered by yoda and Mace Windu and ultimately thwarted by Palpatine and a young Thrawn.

Early in his life, C'baoth chose to walk the way of the Jedi Consulars. These guardians of peace favored the mastery of diplomacy over the ways of combat, dedicating themselves to resolving conflicts not with lightsabers but with words and wisdom. C'baoth, with a steadfast belief in the principles of the Galactic Republic, offered his services in various capacities, most notably as a mediator and negotiator in disputes rife with speciesism.

His commitment to peace led him to a critical role within the Demilitarization Observation Group on the Mid Rim planet of Ando, a world abundant in mineral wealth yet plagued by ceaseless conflict among its Aqualish subspecies over mineral rights. It was on this tumultuous conflict that C'baoth's path crossed with an unremarkable senator from the relatively obscure world of Naboo named Palpatine. This meeting marked the beginning of a friendship and professional alliance that would span many years, rooted in a shared enthusiasm for the ExGal Project's bold mission to discover life beyond the confines of the known galaxy.

This collaboration saw C'baoth ascend to become an invaluable advisor to Palpatine on matters pertaining to the Jedi, leveraging his diplomatic acumen to aid the senator's career. Their partnership, however, was not destined to last. In the years leading up to the pivotal Battle of Naboo in 32 BBY, C'baoth was beset by troubling visions of the dark side's growing power. He saw dark clouds gathering over the future of the galaxy, foreseeing a conflict of galactic proportions that would overcome the Republic and the Jedi Order. He shared his forebodings with a young Obi-Wan Kenobi, with a stark warning: "The time is coming when all Jedi will be forced to take up arms against a great threat to the Republic." Disturbed by these premonitions and driven by a sense of duty to the Force, C'baoth made the difficult decision to leave Palpatine's side. He embarked once more on a solitary quest, determined to uncover the source of his ominous visions.
