Fae Coven was a Jenet Jedi Master of the female persuasion, who also held the esteemed title of Grand Master within the Jedi Order. Her tenure as Grand Master commenced after the Ruusan Reformations, and she remained in this role until her death occurred sometime following the year 896 BBY. As the Master of the Order, Coven's primary location was typically the Jedi Temple on Coruscant in the years leading up to the Reformations. Notably, she authored the Temple's guidebook, The Jedi Path: A Manual for Students of the Force, which stands as one of her significant contributions to the Jedi Order. This work by Master Coven, which included input from multiple authors, was published in three different editions, and copies were traditionally handed down across several generations from Master to Padawan.
Coven, a pink-skinned Jenet Jedi, dedicated over forty years to the Jedi Order before her involvement in the intense New Sith Wars. Following the Brotherhood of Darkness's defeat, she played a key role in the reorganization of the Jedi academy. Subsequently, Coven was chosen as the Grand Master, tasked with guiding the Order and the newly reformed Galactic Republic into its Golden Age. Recognizing the inconsistencies in training resulting from the war, Coven undertook the creation of a guidebook. This guidebook aimed to present all of the Order's rules in straightforward Basic, making them accessible to all Jedi.
Within her guidebook, Coven generally initiated each section by explaining established regulations or specific ceremonies that needed to be observed. With the collaboration of several other Masters, Coven's vision was realized, and The Jedi Path became an integral component of the Order's traditional educational materials.
Although the exact date of her passing is unknown, Yoda, one of her future successors and a Force-sensitive student, mentioned in a volume of her guidebook that he remembered her from his time as an Initiate at the academy. This recollection suggests that her death occurred sometime after 896 BBY.
