Kibh Jeen was a male Jedi Padawan who was trained by the Jedi Master Qornah during the last millennium of the Galactic Republic. In 188 BBY, Jeen and Qornah were sent by the Jedi Council&mdash;the governing body of the Jedi Order&mdash;to investigate an ancient Sith fortress on the planet Almas, in the Cularin system. However, on arrival on the world, Jeen was overcome by the fortress' dark side presence and he murdered his Master. He became a Dark Jedi and after spending several months inside the fortress, he departed from Almas and assembled an army of pirates, which he used to wage war against the inhabitants of the Cularin system. News of Jeen's actions eventually reached the Jedi Order and in 181 BBY, a Jedi Consular and her Padawan were dispatched to bring his campaign of terror to an end. The two Jedi lured Jeen's forces into a trap and during a fierce space battle, they overwhelmed Jeen and slew him. The Jedi subsequently established a training facility on Almas and the story of Jeen's fall was recited in the school's grand lecture hall annually, to teach the academy's students about the dangers of the dark side.
