Their role often involves making choices, in an effort to establish balance to ensure order and maintain a natural course across the Force's energy - preventing chaos from overtaking it.

They were first seen in the "Mortis" arc in The Clone Wars (which highlights The Clone Wars Mortis Arc , a central part to Star Wars Canon), with three major beings: The Son - who embodies the Dark Side of the Force, The Daughter - who stands as a beacon for the Light Side of the Force and the Father who attempts to preserve balance in order to keep peace and ensure that The Son and The Daughter, both wielding enormous powers, can find a way to refrain from destroying the world with those forces.
