Zeck Lathorne

Zeck Lathorne is a Jedi Master originating from the Old Republic Era. He was a veteran of the Cold War, the Second and Third Great Galactic Wars, the War Against the Eternal Empire, the Clone Wars, and the Galactic Civil War.

One of the most notable aspects of his life is the time he spent in suspended animation. He was frozen in carbonite between the years 3637 and 3632 BBY and later trapped in a Rakata Mind Prison between the years 3625 BBY and 22 BBY. It was through this he was able to see and interact with his direct descendants Mor, Maxson, and Rourke Lathorne. This also meant that when he died 3,674 years after his death he only had the physical appearance of a 66 year old man.

Even during his early days as a Padawan Learner, Zeck showed signs of rebelling against Jedi Dogma and was considered to be a 'Gray Jedi'. Despite going against numerous important Jedi teachings he was nevertheless given the rank and title of Jedi Master after a successful duel against th Sith Emperor. Later, Zeck was even made Battlemaster of the Jedi Order following the Battle of Rishi. It would appear that Zeck's "free spirited" nature was well-known even three-thousand years later, for when he was reawakened the Jedi High Council was hesitant in reintroducing him back into the Order. It was only due to the outbreak of the Clone Wars that and Zeck's previous combat experience that the "modern" Jedi allowed him to remain within the order.
