Father (Shogun)

This article is non-canon within the canon continuity. This article covers a subject from a Star Wars: Visions story that Lucasfilm declared is set in an alternate history within a reimagined galaxy.

The Father was a male^[1] god^[2] who appeared to the Jedi known as Shogun in a vision. Near the end of a war^[1] between the Jedi clans and the Sith,^[3] Shogun was struck by what seemed like lightning while standing on the top of a tower. The impact caused them to fall from the tower, and they then saw a vision of the Father, who told them to visit the temple Elujoji on the planet Sukalan. When Shogun asked what awaited there, the Father told them they would find "truth." Later, when Shogun met^[1] the former Sith^[3] known as the Ronin, they told him about their vision of the Father and how they were still searching for the temple. The Ronin had heard of the temple but did not know its location.^[1]

In Shogun's vision, the Father appeared massive in size. The Father wore large earrings and a crown and had a long beard.^[1]
