Gantoris

Gantoris was a human male native to Eol Sha. A Force-sensitive desecended from a Jedi Knight, his powers led to him becoming the natural leader of the planet. He used his powers to save the world's inhabitants from natural disasters such as earthquakes and avalanches. Gantoris had repeated dreams of being killed by a "Dark Man." When Luke Skywalker came to Eol Sha to recruit Gantoris to jojn his Jedi Praxeum, Gantoris believed that Luke, in his black robes, might be the "Dark Man." Gantoris tested Luke by making him cross a lava pit and confront the deadly fireworm within. Gantoris followed Luke off Eol Sha on the condition the other inhabitants of the hostile world be relocated by the New Republic. On Bespin, Gantoris attempted to help Luke Skywalker show Streen the potential of the Force: he did so by manipulating rawwks, much to Streen's dismay. At the Jedi Praxeum on Yavin 4, Gantoris was a arrogant student and quickly became a rival of Corran Horn. Under the tutelage of the spirt of Exar Kun, Gantoris contructed a dual-phase lightsabre using corusca gems, which he used to challenge Luke to a duel. Exar Kun continually attempted to turn Gantoris to the Dark Side. Ultimately, Gantoris resisted Kun, and Kun proved himself to be the "Dark Man" and killed Gantoris. Following Gantoris's death, Exar Kun began to corrupt Kyp Durron.
