Biography
A human male, Ky Narec became a member of the Jedi Order some time before the galactic conflict known as the Clone Wars broke out. After becoming a Jedi Knight, Narec became stranded on the planet Rattatak and, during one encounter with Weequay raiders, witnessed a young Force-sensitive Dathomirian girl named Asajj Ventress use the Force to throw one of the raiders. Narec took Ventress under his wing and trained her in the ways of the Jedi. The two Jedi, now Master and apprentice, remained on Rattatak for the next ten years, aiding its people and being regarded as heroes by most. During another attack by Weequay raiders, Narec was defeated and killed by a single raider, shot in the back with a sniper rifle and subsequently died in Ventress's arms. Enraged by her Master's death, Ventress took Narec's lightsaber and struck down the sniper in a fit of rage, becoming the first step in her path to the dark side.

Behind the scenes
Ky Narec's first appearance in canon was in a flashback in the twelfth episode of the third season of the Star Wars: The Clone Wars television series, "Nightsisters." He was later mentioned with slightly more information given about him in the novel Dark Disciple, which was adapted from eight unaired episodes of Star Wars: The Clone Wars. Narec's first appearance in any piece of Star Wars media was in the Legends comic Republic 60: Hate and Fear, in which he appeared in a flashback.
