Empatojayos Brand

His Royal Eminence, King Empatojayos Brand (?- 11 ABY) was a Jedi knight and a survivor of the Great Jedi Purge.

Biography
Brand was a padawan of Master Yaddle and a friend of Bultar Swan, and a veteran of the Clone Wars, fighting at the Battle of Geonosis and other engagements. A survivor of the Great Jedi Purge, Brand fled for his life from the forces of the newly-established Galactic Empire after the Clone Wars ended. Though he was maimed in a space battle with Darth Vader's cruiser and left for dead, he survived long enough for a Ganathan scout to pick him up. His torso was placed into a bulbous metal shell that moved via repulsorlifts. Lightsaber blades were integrated into at least one of his arm protheses. He became king of Ganath, and proved to be an enlightened ruler.

Later he joined Luke Skywalker in his campaign against the resurrected Emperor Palpatine. He was mortally wounded by a gout of Palpatine's Force lightning. Upon death, he took the Sith Master's malevolent spirit with him, never to return again.
