Darrin Arkanian

Darrin Arkanian: This sullustan Jedi Knight was an idealist and a dreamer. He loved the life over any other thing, and struggled to be a model of peace and contemplation. In the years previous to the Clone Wars, when the separatists had taken the Lahara sector, Darrin Arkanian led a group of jedis sent to rescue to the ship Iron Tie, that had been attacked by separatists near the border of Lahara and sent to the Crucible of the Hood, where the hyperspace effect left the ship stuck. Arkanian and the others jedis located the ship and discovered that the crew were still alive. When Emperor Palpatine began to hunt to the Jedi, Arkanian hid and took the human Corwin Shelvay as an apprentice. They were declared criminals and fugitives, and wandered around the Outer Rim looking for surviving Jedi Knights. When Corwin was captured by the High Inquisitor Tremayne, Arkanian infiltrated in Coruscant to rescue his student. He was discovered by Tremayne, and they faced in a duel of light sabers. Arkanian lost, and was fatally hurt before Shelvay could rescue him. Arkanian died few days after they escaped from Coruscant. Due to this and other reasons, Corwin would join the Alliance.
