Kao Cen Darach served on the Republic's capital of Coruscant during the years leading up to the war as Jedi Battlemaster. But his idealism and staunch opposition to all forms of the dark side of the Force upset the Jedi Order's political position on the world. Eventually, the Zabrak was assigned to serve on the security space station over the planet Korriban—the ancestral homeworld of the apparently defunct Sith Empire. During his time on the station, the young Jedi Padawan Satele Shan came to study at his feet, learning about the nature of the dark side and the use of a double-bladed lightsaber. During their time together, Darach has trained well combating the dark side, and has guided her through her trials to become a full Jedi Knight.

Kao has formed a powerful bond with his former padawan, Satele Shan, and knows that she is destined for greatness. He will protect her with his life, just as he did when she was under his tutelage.

Magnitude: 71
Strength: Bravery
Weakness: Obstinance

The Zabrak Jedi Master devoutly follows his own rigid belief system, which stipulates that the dark side of the Force needed to be confronted and defeated, no matter what form it may take. His unique, hardline approach to matters of the Force makes him an unpopular figure in the upper echelons of the Jedi Order on Coruscant—a fact which does little to deter the principled Kao.

Darach strikes a very stoic and calm figure, rarely breaking composure. He stands tall and broad-shouldered, with light mottled skin and green eyes. The cranial horns common to his species crown his hairless head.
