Xaart

A veteran of the Mandalorian Wars, in later years serving as a covert diplomatic operative under the orders of the Old Republic Senate. Xaart was one of the ground troops under the command of the Jedi Exile during the Battle of Dagary Minor, which was a significant loss for the Republic during the early years of the Mandalorian Wars. Afterward, Xaart lost contact with the Exile until after the Jedi Civil War, resurfacing on Onderon in 3,951 BBY as a secret Republic fact-finder in the capital city of Iziz.

Xaart's mission is far more important to the fate of the galaxy than is first realized by the Exile; his determination that -- if Onderon were to successfully secede from the Old Republic -- enough surrounding systems would join with it, eventually spelling the doom of the Republic. His critical information is successfully passed along to the Exile, who in turn managed to vouchsafe Onderon's place in the Republic, preventing a massive civil war.
