Legend

this ancient Jedi artifact was created by the Cthol race. Resembling a small, metallic pyramid, the Codex was designed to measure and manipulate the Force. It is a dull gold color, and is covered with mystic engravings and small crystal-studded patterns. When used by a properly trained Jedi, the Codex glows slightly and hums. Among its many uses, the Codex can locate disturbances in the Force. It can also augment a Jedi's ability to call upon and use the Force. Continued use of the Codex makes the user susceptible to the Dark Side of the Force. When used, however, the Codex sends tremendous shock waves throught the Force. This is what first attracted the Dark Jedi Halbret to it. When it was later found by Pann, the Codex had become brittle and easily damaged.
