Hero of Tython

"You embody what every Jedi strives to become."

- Grand Master Satele Shan, to the Jedi During the Cold War, a Jedi Knight trained on the planet Tython, in service to the Jedi Order and the Galactic Republic against the resurgent Sith Empire. The Jedi became a Knight under the tutelage of Jedi Master Orgus Din.

Training on Tython
"The Jedi Council will assign you a new Master to oversee you final trials. You'll be tested in ways you can't imagine. But when you leave Tython, you'll know what it means to be a Jedi Knight."

- Derrin Weller, to the Jedi Trained under several masters, this Jedi was eventually sent to Tython to learn from an official master during the time of the Cold War. Shortly after arriving on Tython, this Jedi was thrust into combat with the Flesh Raiders, the hostile natives of that world. After fighting off a number of attacks by the savages and defeating the Dark Jedi Callef, the Jedi was taken on officially by Council member Orgus Din as a Padawan. Not long after, the Padawan discovered a rogue Jedi named Bengel Morr, once Master Din's apprentice but presumed killed during the sacking of Coruscant, was leading the Flesh Raiders against the Jedi. Teaming up with an old astromech droid, T7-O1, the Padawan was able to defeat the Dark Jedi before he could do any true harm. Master Orgus congratulated the Jedi and instructed the Jedi to the Forge in order to craft a lightsaber. After creating a lightsaber the Jedi returned to the Jedi Temple and in recognition for stopping the Flesh Raiders and defeating Bengel, the Jedi Council granted this individual the rank of Jedi Knight.

The Planet Prison
The newly christened knight went with Master Orgus to the Republic capital of Coruscant. There they met with Master Bela Kiwiiks and her apprentice Kira Carsen. While there the Jedi learned of the Planet Prison, a Republic superweapon designed by Doctor Tarnis. After they believed Tarnis was kidnapped, the Jedi worked with Kira to rescue him. Over the course of their mission they learned that Tarnis was actually a Sith Lord and was building the superweapon in the ruins of the Jedi Temple. After fighting through Rogue droids and Imperial Agents in The Works, the Jedi made it to the Jedi Temple ruins. Within it the Jedi found Lord Tarnis with the Planet Prison communicating with several Sith Lords. The Jedi dueled Lord Tarnis, who refused to surrender, and killed the Sith Lord. One of the Sith overseeing the duel was Darth Angral, who happened to be Tarnis' father. Angral swore vengeance on the Knight and revealed that he had many superweapon plans, and that he would kill the Knight. After returning to the Senate Building the Jedi was contacted by Grand Master Satele Shan, who told the Jedi to go to Ord Mantell in relation to Darth Angral's work, and to take Kira Carsen on as his apprentice.
