Ascendant Record Keeper

Ascendant Record Keeper was a position in the Ascendant cult that were active centuries before 3 BBY, specifically within the Bar'leth Group that operated out of the cult's main temple, the Tomb of the Spark Eternal, on the Core Worlds planetStar Wars: Galaxy's Edge: Traveler's Guide to Batuu Bar'leth. The Trandoshan GhessDoctor Aphra (2020) 22 held the position and was tasked with the cult's documentation, which they wanted to sound mysterious and exciting to ensure that it would be read. Ghess was also allowed by Miril—a Chadra-Fan co-founder of the Ascendant—to come up with names for everything within the group. Eventually, the Darkseekers—a group of Sith that hunted threats to themselves—wiped out the Ascendant at the temple on Bar'leth, including Ghess and the position they held.
