Darth Caedus (Jasca Ducato)

"&hellip; he has always questioned his purpose as a Jedi, and even the meaning of the Force. I can't imagine him not questioning any fate that lay in store for him. And a special destiny is not always something joyous, or easy to bear. My father had a special destiny, and see where it took him."

- Luke Skywalker

Jacen Solo was the eldest son of Han Solo and Leia Organa Solo, the younger twin of Jaina and the brother of Anakin. Even before he and his sister were born, their uncle Luke Skywalker could sense their strong presence in the Force and the two shared an inseparable mental bond. Later in his life he became the Jedi Master to his cousin, Ben Skywalker and fathered a baby girl, Allana, with Tenel Ka.

Jacen showed immaculate Force powers as an infant when he helped his uncle and his uncle's students defeat the spirit of Exar Kun. Jacen had always been an empathetic person, forming close bonds with Humans and animals alike. He eventually developed an affinity and sensitivity towards nature and the Living Force.

He started his formal Jedi training years later at his uncle's Jedi Praxeum on Yavin 4. He excelled as one of the best students, getting into many adventures with his friends Lowbacca, Tenel Ka and his sister Jaina. Later, during the Yuuzhan Vong War, he often did not see eye to eye with the Jedi view of the Force, despite being one of the more powerful Knights of the New Jedi Order. After being captured by the Yuuzhan Vong, he became associated with Vergere, who molded many of his ways of thinking.

Sith Crusade
During the Sith Crusade Jacen suddenly found himself in the heat of war. Having lost his sister early on in the war it quickly became apparant to the Jedi Order that Jacen was suffering from this conflict, and they attempted to keep him as far from the front for as long as possible. And so Jacen was stationed at Empress Teta and ordered to defend the trade routes.
