Nathaniel Kenobi

Nathaniel Kenobi, or as he is more commonly known as Nathaniel Kenobi Clan Fett, is a former Jedi. He is a survivor of The Jedi Purge. He was apprenticed by the Jedi Knight Callista Ming. He was the best friend of Anakin Skywalker and Ferus Olin.

History 18 BBY
Nathan and two Jedi younglings (Ada Fey'lya and Udo Rand) have escaped the Jedi Temple massacre. A year after they attempt to reach the Jedi enclave of Belsavis. But an Imperial Interdictor brings them out of hyperspace. Captain Gilad Pellaeon comes aboard and tells Nathan--who is using the alias of Titus Thul--that all ships going near Belsavis must be searched. After using force-persuasion and Pellaeon leaves, Nathan beams a special code to Belsavis telling them to flee immeadiately. Having no other choice, he decides to go to the planet of Kamino and destroy the cloning facilties.

Reaching the planet and gaining access to the Imperial space station orbiting the planet, he and the younglings find that not all is as it seems. All of the crew have dissapeared. Their answer comes in the form of a woman. The most beautiful he has ever seen. She shoots him with a tranquilizer dart and he loses conciousness.

He wakes up to find himself in a hospital. The resident doctor--Doc-- tells him what has happened. The clones have secretly rebelled against the Empire and are plotting thier escape. During the conversation three individuals come into the room. They are Lama Su, Taun We, and the woman who shot Nathan, Abigail Jade. They tell him that Asajj Ventress has joined them and is teaching Kaminoan and clone force-sensitives. Nathan asks to meet her and they leave.

Asajj Ventress explains to Nathan what happened to her after Boz Pity. She harbors no grudge against the Jedi and is teaching something new, that all can use the dark side of the Force without falling. This shatters his beliefs and she begins teaching him. A Clone Commander--Alpha--comes in and notifies Lama that a freighter that claims to be harboring Jedi is under attack and is asking for immeadiate assistance. They go to help the freighter.

Jedi agriculturalists Nam Poorf and Jambe Lu are under attack from Arc-170s and all hope is lost, until Nathan and Alpha bring in a battlegroup to protect them. The Imperials are easily destroyed and the two Jedi accompany the fleet back to Kamino.

Nathan later goes to Abigail's room and talks with her about each other's past. She is a Zeltron/Human hybrid and her mother was a Jedi that was exiled after it was found that she was pregnant with her daughter. They fled to Kamino and she was adopted into Jango Fett's family after her mother died.

Nathan is instructing several new students that he had found in a battered freighter of how to use ghosting, when Abigail comes in. She demands for him to talk to her about their relationship. He tells her that he loves her and asks her if she will marry him. She accepts.

Meanwhile, the Empire had finally had enough, Grand Moff Wilhuff Tarkin has been sent with a major task force to destroy all resistance. All of the Jedi are stranded on the surface, and Asajj Ventress and Nam Poorf are killed by Darth Vader. Thanks to a special commando team sent by Alpha, all the other Jedi are able to flee with the Kaminoans.

History 17.5 BBY
A half-year later, the clones and Kaminoans have settled in a the new Novus Kamino system in the Outer Rim, on the planet newly christened Novus Kamino Prime. Abigail and Nathan talk about the Empire and what they should do fight it. Abigail wants to stay put, but Nathan wants to begin guerilla strikes against them. A ship has landed and out comes Olee Starstone and the crew of the Drunk Dancer. They give the fledging colony supplies and weapons. They receive a distress call from a neighboring system called the Ottiumigos Centrality. They send out several Acclamators to assess what is happening.

The battle group has entered the system and rescues several Ottiumigon ships. Their leader Gzeldff Hufhm tells them about their attackers and during his speech the ship is attacked by coral vessels. The ship suffers hull damage, so Nathan and a Ghottalphib apprentice named Pandraxon set out to seal it. While welding the hole, Nathan tries to sense the pilot of a passing coral vessel. To his surprise, he cannot sense them in the Force! They repair the hole and give the order to jump to hyperspace.

Abigail meanwhile had captured an individual of the invading species, but he commits ritual suicide. Discussing the situation, Nathan, Alpha, and Lama agree to a reconnaisance mission to the Centrality. Nathan meets Alpha's commando squad. Sneaky, the sniper; Flyboy, the Jet Trooper; Crash, the demolitions expert; Doc, the doctor; and Shocker, the repairmen. Doc gives Nathan the news that his wife is pregnant with their child. They set out to the system regardless.

About to enter the fourth planet's atmosphere, Lama's cloak fails and he is captured by the enemy. They land anyway and start to search for answers. Lama is being tortured by their enemy, the dreaded Yuuzhan Vong. The Vong, tells him his name is Hooley Krekk of Domain Krekk. He explains why they do what they do and puts Lama in the Embrace of Pain and gives him a slaveseed.

Nathan feels Lama crying out to him and makes a full-frontal assault on the facility that Lama is in. After killing Vong after Vong, he reaches Lama, only to be stopped by Hooley Krekk. Lama breathes his last and after Nathan slices Hooley's hands off, he forces him to surrender. Hooley utters a curse that says that Nathan will never live in one place any longer and his family will die. But after the threat, Hooley calls off the forces he sent to destroy the colonies and signs a truce with his new bio-formed hands.

History 17 BBY
After returning to the colonies, Nathan is plagued by the fact that people are being oppresed all across the Empire. Two good things happen though. First, the Jedi enclave from Belsavis comes to the colonies seeking asylum and second, his wife gives birth. He promises her that he will not attack the Empire, unless they strike first.

A man who keeps his promises, Nathan teams up with Alpha and Doc wo find a way to bring them there. A false distress signal is sent and received. The battle is a push-over and Nathan brings the fleet to the neighboring system that contains Toola. But before that happens a force-ghost of Asajj comes. She tells him of two possible futures: one in which both his wife and himself survive and grow old together or another where only one of the two remains, angry at the decision they made. Nathan chooses the latter, since his pride has blinded him to everything else.

His group battles against Tarkin and the demoted Ensign Pellaeon. Pellaeon finds that they are jamming the Imperials from sending out a distress signal and shows Tarkin which ship to attack. After the ship is destroyed, another fleet comes into the fray and although Nathan and Alpha beat them, only tweleve of their once mighty thirty-four remain.

Doc, feeling gulity for his actions in the plan, tells Abigail about it and she takes her baby (Abigail Jr.) with her and leaves a cryptic clue for Nathan, should he find that he could still support them. Nathan later comes and weeps for his choice and his family. He learns that the cryptic message means that Abigail has gone to Tatooine. He leaves the Jedi under the care of Master Plett and Pandraxon.

Both Abigails reach the planet and are soon captured by two smugglers who recognize the face of Abigail from an Imperial wanted notice. She is tranquilized and her baby also captured. Luckily, her droid Kex, has been programmed to seek out Obi-Wan Kenobi's bio-signs should she fail.

Nathan arrives five days later. After the interrogation of a Toydarian merchant, he rents a dewback and heads towards his uncle's residence. On the way, he is attacked by the Tusken Raiders. Thanks to his uncle's intervention he receives the news of what happens to Abigail. She has been taken to the Emperor's secret facility, Wayland.

He reaches the coordinates and using a sniper that had been a parting gift from Sneaky, starts picking off the stormtroopers that surround the installation. He is given a challenge by Palatine and comes towards him. He bows to Palpatine and begs him not to kill his wife and child. He tells Palpatine that he will do whatever he wants him to do. The false plea is heeded and using his deception, Nathan attacks him and subdues him. He leaves Palpatine behind and finds his wife and hugs her, but to his horror, hears a fatal blastershot.



His wife dead, Nathan looks at the assasins. They are Tarkin and Pellaeon. Furious, he attacks them, but is stopped by Vader. They duel and Vader beat Nathan up bad. He tried to coax the location of Obi-Wan, but Nathan hears the voice of his wife tell him to flee with their child and get to safety. Heeding her, he leaves the room and finds his baby. They escape, but not before he gets his wife's body. Not looking back, he jumps back to the colony.

Abigail's funeral is held and he leaves the colonies, but not after giving the newly elected Prime Minister, Taun We, his blessing and telling the new Masters over the Jedi, a Draethos; Logh-Urr, Master Plett, and Pandraxon a warning/prophecy. He has forseen that trouble will find itself in the colonies, years after he leave. He says that his future grandson will stop it. Leaving with his child, he sets off for his sojourn through the Unknown Regions.

He dies 10 years later, but not before telling his daughter everything he knows. She later marries a man and gives birth to the prophesied savior of the colonies.

Future Conclusions
Years later, during the Yuuzhan Vong war, Nathan's grandson, Nathaniel Kenobi Solo found his grandfather's holocron that told of the trouble that the colony was in and stated that he was the only one who could stop it. Nathaniel Kenobi, Abigail Jade, and Nathan's mother Abigial Jr.'s force-ghosts told him of the trials that were inevitable to come towards him, but he says that he can take it. With his ancestor's blessing, the youngest Nathan left for the colony and the knowledge that he must stop the Schism before it is too late...

Powers
He is the only Jedi in existence, except for Revan, who can actually "transport" himself and other items from one place to another. What he refers to as ghosting. Besides that and after he began tutelage under the former Sith Asajj Ventress, he learned that one can use the Potentium and not fall to the dark side. He is a powerful advocate of its use.

Lightsaber Combat
Nathan is adept at holding dual bladed lightsabers. One is green and the other cyan. He is excellent at Form X and even defeated the aggressive Emperor Palpatine in combat.

Behind the Scenes
Nathaniel Kenobi was originally going to be a male Mandalorian clone of Jango Fett, who was found to be force-sensitive by the Jedi Master, Callista Ming. After journeying to Coruscant to discern the purpose of Order 66, they would have decided to destroy the cloning facilities on Kamino. The ending would have had the clone turning to the dark side after learning Callista was not in love with him, but the canonical Geith. He would then contact Darth Vader and tell him that she and other Jedi were stationed on the planet Belsavis. Feeling guilty, he would alert them. Dauntless, he would still destroy the facilities after a duel with Darth Vader and would have died, making sure no one could make another one of them again.
