--- ''The force has no Light side The force has no Dark side The force is the force The force is my guide'' -Auron Katarn to Revan

Life at the Jedi Temple
''He is strong in the force, and learns things quickly, but I fear he does not fully comprehend the dangers of the dark side. I am afraid I must disagree, I feel a strong sense of balance in that one.'' Master Vrook and Master Vandar speaking about Auron as a Padawan. After being brought to the Jedi Council at the age of 5 Auron Katarn began learning the ways of the Jedi and mastering their techniques and abilities along side other padawans such as Atris and Kavar (who was also his closest friend) until the day he was given the title of Jedi Knight and Consular. Several years later he chose to train a padawan of his own the Jedi Exile.

Teaching the Exile
''If you truly believe that your path lies on the mandalorian battlefields then I wish you a safe return. Thank you Master Katarn I hope I will see you again.'' Auron and the Exile before she leaves for the war. Auron decided to teach the ways of the Grey Jedi unlike most of the other members of the order who often criticised him for this. But he believed that to truly understand the ways of the force the Jedi's mind must be a neutral one like the force itself.

Before the Exile's training was complete the mandalorian's began there conquest of the outer rim worlds and she went with Revan to fight them for the Republic.

Revan's teacher
Auron Katarn was one of Revan's lesser known masters. Revan sought him out not long before leaving to fight the mandalorians wanting to learn the deeper mysteries of the force because of Auron's extensive knowledge of both Jedi and Sith as well as his reputation as a powerful consular and renowned Jedi Weapons Master. He was Revan's last master before he returned to Kreia. Master Katarn not only taught Revan in the ways of the force but also an Echani technique known as battle precognition which Revan used during the Mandalorian wars to predict his enemies tactics in the war as well as in close combat. Like the Jedi council Master Katarn believed there was a hidden threat behind the mandalorians and after speaking of his concerns to his trusted friend Kavar they devised a plan to bring out the Sith threat. Kavar would watch and wait for any sign of them while Auron decided to take a more practical approach and followed Revan to war in the hopes of finding them by any means necessary, before they had a chance to strike.

General of the Republic
You are an excellent leader general and I'm proud to fight by your side in this war. Carth Onasi to Auron Katarn

Because of his superior skills in battle Katarn was given conrol of the largest fleet in the Republic besides Revan's and his own flagship the courageous, where he met Captain Saul Karath and Carth Onasi. He led his soldiers to many victories, most notably the battle on Dxun where he took a small group of Jedi and elite soldiers deep into the planets jungle and using the bulk of the ground troops as a distraction managed to get behind behind enemy lines and disabled the mandalorian camp's outer defences and heavy air turrets forcing the mandalorians to abandon the planet leaving behind a select few who soon met there end as the camp was stormed by the soldiers and the beasts of the jungle.

He later took part in the battle of Serroco it was on this planet that he found his old apprentice, the Jedi general who would later become known as the Jedi Exile. Here Auron gave the Exile the rank of Jedi Knight before they were separated once again by the Mandalorian's bombing of the planet.

It was Auron who discovered the planet of Malachor V and it's signifincance to the Mandalorian's. He passed on this valuable information to Revan who then used it to his advantage. He arrived at Malachor with Revan and cut down many mandalorians throughout the course of the battle. While fighting close to Revan and Mandalore the Ultimate he almost met his end as 100's of Mandalorian Neo Crusaders surrounded him, but at that moment Mandalore was vanquished and the Exlie gave the order to activate the Mass Shadow Generator ending the conflict and the war in a devastating gravity well that engulfed the planet crushing both mandalorian and republic soldiers alike.

After the battle Auron travelled to the planets surface with Revan where they discovered the Trayus Academy and were both bombarded by dark side energies. Revan chose to accept the energy rather than be consumed by it and Auron followed in his example beginning his journey down the dark path. Once inside the academy they split up and began searching its many halls, Auron then entered the Trayus Core, and sensing its power he began meditating he could feel as the core channeled his energy and made him stronger, he was now powerful enough in the force to sense things around him at huge distances, he could see the mandalorians being stripped of their armour and weapons back up on the surface. The knowledge of all the Sith holocrons in the Academy pouring into him. Revan had sensed this happen so he entered the core to enlist Auron's help in readying the Republic to face the True sith threat.

The Jedi Civil War
Auron accepted Revans offer in order to protect the Republic. Revan gave Auron a new title, Darth Nexus, and entrusted him with the task of converting his Jedi followers into Sith here in the Academy while Revan went in search of the Star Forge.
