Nathaniel Kenobi Solo

"The Avenger of the Jedi? Here?"

- Daniell Kenobi Solo to Nathan

"It's an honor to be serving under you sir." "I know, I have that effect on people."

- A Fifth Republic trooper and Nathan

Nathaniel Kenobi Solo or as he was less commonly known as, Nathaniel Kenobi Solo Clan Fett, was a male Human/Zeltron Jedi. His mother was Abigaile Kenobi. His father's name is Nat-ahn Mandrex a Clawdite Dark Jedi. His mother did not know of a father, because he had seduced her and used a special plant to make her forget everything.

Birth to Adoption
Nathan grew up in the Unknown Regions, and was immediately taught everything his mother could think of. She taught him how to duel with a lightsaber at the age of two! She also taught him about his grandfather, Nathaniel Kenobi, and all that he had passed on to her.

When he was two years old, his mother received a vision from his grandfather, that told her that it was time to return to Known Space. She did so and was prompted to go to the planet Jomark. While here, she encountered Luke Skywalker and the insane clone, Joruus C'baoth. She defends Luke and Nathan from him, but is fatally injured. With her dying breath, she asks Luke to give her son to someone who can take care of him and to give him her father's holocron when the time was right.

Nowhere close to being ready to be a father, Luke gave Nathan to his twin sister Leia and her husband Han, who had just conceived the twins, Jaina Solo and Jacen Solo. He was adopted into the House of Solo and added it to his already long name.

Early Adventures
When he was three years old, the resurrected Emperor Palpatine, had captured his Uncle Luke, and his new parents. Force-persuading his nurse, Winter, that he could go help. He hijacked an X-wing and made the pilot fly them towards his parents. When he came there, he saw them so close to defeat and ignited his tiny, green lightsaber. Palpatine merely laughed and flung some Force lightning at him. But he absorbed it! And then flung it back at the would-be Emperor! Using the distraction Luke, Leia, and Han killed Palpatine, but were astonished at Nathan's powers. How could one use the dark side at such an early age, yet not be corrupted by it?

During the Jedi Academy Search, he helped Jacen save Luke's physical body from being destroyed by Exar Kun.

When Jaina, Anakin, and Jacen were kidnapped by Hethrir, he helped to find them.

He also helped Jaden Korr and Chewbacca during the Mission to Mos Eisley and helped Jaden again during the Mission to Chandrilla. Both times he had stowed away to help Jaden, feeling that it was the right thing to do. Both times Luke reprimanded him, trying to teach him the importance of listening to people in leadership positions, he never forgot it, except, he never listened to it.

Jedi Academy
Two years older than his adopted siblings, he started at the Jedi Academy before them. There he learned of the Jedi and the Sith. He also had learned that the dark side was something that could be used for good, as long as the person who weilded it, was in the right state. During this time, he became adept at Form X, just like his grandfather before him.

Here he received his grandfather's holocron for the first time, but it would not open nor would it give any information at all. He toyed with it for a while and never gave up, but he would have to wait for the Yuuzhan Vong War first.

Slave Seed
Before the Yuuzhan Vong War, Nathan would have been like any other Jedi in detecting the Yuuzhan Vong, but, as fate would have it&mdash;most likely the Force's intervention&mdash;Nathan would meet someone who could, however indirectly, teach him this technique.

Nathan had received reports of a small smuggling operation, which had been feeding the Imperial Remnant with stolen weapons. He proceeded there and scuttled the operation. Unfortunately, after he had completed his mission, he was struck from behind by someone he hadn't known existed.

The man woke him up later, explaining that as soon as his "fellows" came, the Jeedai would be exterminated. Nathan tried hard to feel him, but could not. The man implanted him with a slave seed and Nathan felt his mind seduced by a strong presence.

Nathan resisted and finally became the seducer, breaking free, he felt his captor in the Force. The man tore off his "skin" and revealed a heavily scarred form. Nathan sparred with him and eventually killed him, wondering what he was...

Jedi Academy (cont.)
During the Bothan crisis, Nathan was part of a Jedi apprentice training course near the Remnant and his group was captured by the Imps.

He resisted interrogation which would have helped Disra and the other collaborators greatly, even when they pulled teeth to gain it, he wouldn't budge.

He escaped and released Tionne and the other captive Jedi. He then proceeded to sabotage the Star Destroyer they were aboard, and confronted the Moff in charge, thanking him for pulling the last of his loose teeth for him.

He helped his brother Anakin and his friend Tahiri on their quests and helped bring down the Shadow Academy. He also encountered the crime syndicate known as the Black Sun for the first time. He would later battle an alternative version of the Black Sun. It was during this time that he first felt an infatuation with his "sister", Jaina.

Yuuzhan Vong War
"Who's next?"

- Nathaniel Kenobi Solo to Yuuzhan Vong warriors on Duro

Nathan accompanied his aunt Mara, Leia, and Jaina to Rhommamool and was surprised when none of them (except for him) could sense Nom Anor in the Force. When the Yuuzhan Vong invaded the Galaxy, he was one of the first Jedi to encounter them. But he was the only one to sense them.

Nathan, Jaina, Jacen, and Anakin prepped for the defense of Dubrillion and Destrillion. He felt afraid, an emotion not common to him at all. He felt scared that he should be the one who could sense them in the Force. Why should he be the one? Was he somehow tied to this new race? He brushed aside his fears and participated in New Republic victories at Dubrillion and Helska. He also blamed himself for Chewbacca's death, since he could have ghosted him away, had he been there.

He also participated at the Battle of Dantooine.

A fairly decent pilot, he and Jaina joined the legendary Rogue Squadron, but being the rogue he was, did not stay with them all the time.

With Tenel Ka at his side, he began to evacuate the populaces of several planets, on one, they were knocked out and transported into a Peace Brigade ship. The Trandoshans in charge were Force-sensitives. In Trandoshan society being Force-sensitive automatically brings down your points with the Scorekeeper. He managed to convince one of them, Zossk Sadeet, to free him and Tenel. He took Zossk as his apprentice.

"I renounce my fear of telling the truth to the one I love! Jaina, I love you."

- Nathan to Jaina Solo during the ceremony above Ithor where the Jedi were told to renounce something "bad" in them.

During the Battle of Ithor, he confessed his love for Jaina and the two became girlfriend and boyfriend. He told her that after everything was over, they would get married, but they had to wait.

During the Yuuzhan Vong attack on Duro, he fought through droves of Yuuzhan Vong warriors to save Jacen and Leia from Tsavong Lah.

He felt a need to get Anakin Solo back from the now captured Jedi Academy of Yavin IV, and learned why when he helped Anakin escape. The Shamed Ones were a low caste in the Yuuzhan Vong and were considered inferior to the "higher-ups". He felt burdened by this and accidentily began the Jeedai "Heresy".

He and several other Jedi pilots, helped the Zabrak of Iridonia escape their planet's takeover by the Yuuzhan Vong.

The Redemption of Korriban
"Why don't you go back home and cry to your mother? Oh wait&mdash;you don't have one, do you?"

- Nathaniel Kenobi Solo to Darth Mutatos

During the formation of the Great River, he and his idol, Kyle Katarn, initiated the Mission to Korriban, so that they could stop the threat of the Sith alchemist, Darth Mutatos.

The group consisted of several Jedi: Jaden Korr, Tenel Ka, Zekk, Imon Redirnus, Raxe Nuk, Hivrekh'wao'cheklev, Jaina Solo, Zossk Sadeet, Valin Horn, Jysella Horn, Jovan Drark, and Lowbacca. They were accompanied by the Arkanian smuggler Maka Jeth, his Yaka slave Duwingo, the Ryn spacer Orroz, and the Brubb spacer Arboc. They used Maka's personal freighter, Maka's Delight, to infiltrate the now captured planet Korriban.

Maka and Duwingo double-crossed the Jedi and advised a Yuuzhan Vong Sub-Commander, Eatmo Chick'en, to their whereabouts. He and Duwingo were killed by the traitorous Vong, but luckily for the Jedi, Nathan and Zossk initiated their ghosting power, so that they could escape.

In the tombs of Ajunta Pall and other Sith Lords, the Jedi split-up, so that they can cover more ground quicker than usual. During the time, Zekk's group is attacked by mutated shyracks and Imon is killed. Kyle's group gets attacked by mutated vornskrs and wampas, but is able to escape into the tomb of Ajunta Pall. Nathan's is attacked by Mutatos and Sacul Vao, along with mutated wraids and tuk'ata. Jaina is stabbed by Sacul, Zossk and Raxe are knocked out trying to defend Jysella, while Nathan's vocal cords are almost completely cut off, and his lightsabers are destroyed. He barely has enough time to make a blind ghosting attempt.

He reaches Kyle's group and explains what happened via the Force, since it will take some time for his vocal cords to heal. Hivrekh builds a makeshift vocabulator for him, but Nathan--though he still uses it--dislikes it, because it makes him sound like Darth Vader. The motley group proceeds to the caverns below to avoid a Yuuzhan Vong patrol.

On the way, the group discovers two beings of unidentifiable origin. The "master", Cornelius, tells Nathan of his and San-Props's--he's the other being--species. He is a Korribanite and San-Props is an Original Sith, as in the original species! Cornelius leads them to his species hideout in the depths of the huge caves that are aboundant on Korriban.

The group reaches the main city where they are greeted by happy mobs of not only Korribanites and Sith, but former Massassi warriors, and other species that had been captured by the Sith during the Great Hyperspace War. They go to the Council and learn of a prophecy made after Ludo Kressh and Naga Sadow had been defeated by Old Republic forces. It stated that some Humans, a Ryn, a Hapan, a Devaronian, and a Kel Dor would come and save them from a threat that populated their world&mdash;Mutatos and the Yuuzhan Vong. To ensure this happened, the three species, along with their former captives, fled to the depths of Korriban, to avoid anything that came along.

It is learned that the only reason they knew that the Jedi would come that day, was because of a force-sensitive descendant of a former captive, who had a strange Force power, Astral projection. They agree to help the combined group in saving their homes, but not until Nathan can build some lightsabers to replace the ones destroyed by Mutatos.

They learn of a secret crystal cave that had been found by a Twi'lek spelunker, Arhnell, who had been found as Force-sensitive by Nathan's ancestor the Jedi Exile. The Exile gave Arhnell the location and told him of the terentatek that was there and tasked Arhnell to protect the crystals from her and to protect them for a descendant of hers...Nathan. (The terentatek would have fed off of the Force energies there, which was how she survived after the deaths of her parents by Revan's hand.)

Nathan sends Hivrekh and Orroz on a scouting mission to find out when the captured Jedi are to be sacrificed. He and the others seek out the cave and find the terentatek and kill it with several thermal detonators. After finding Arhnell's Force ghost, Nathan convinces him that he is the one who needs the crystals, Arhnell's spirit fades and becomes one with the Force. It was here, where he first gained his two lightsabers, one black, the other white, combined they made a gray double-bladed lightsaber.

After receiving the news that the captured Jedi are to be sacrificed in two days, Nathan tells the remaining Jedi that he is going to make himself get captured, and to have the Court of Yun-Coria "sentence" him. He knows a loophole in their laws that will help the rest of the Jedi free the captured ones and escape on Maka's Delight, provided the combined forces of the underground provide a very big distraction.

He goes to the Court and makes nonsense claims, so that the other Jedi can rescue the captured ones. His "speech" is stopped by Mutatos, Sacul, their animals, and the captured Jedi, who have been brainwashed by Mutatos. Commander Hooley Krekk and senior creche-judge Eg'roeg Coris are killed in the skirmish and Nathan has to disable Jaina and the other Jedi. Hope comes in the form of the combined Sith, Korribanite, and Massassi forces, who destroy the Court's damutek and while Nathan is battling Mutatos, he is killed by his traitorous apprentice, Sacul.

Sacul attacks Nathan, as the combined forces take out all Yuuzhan Vong and mutated animal resistance. Nathan beheads her and stops the battle. All of the Jedi survive and promise to keep the secrets that they found, away from the "outside world".

It was during this time, that the Yuuzhan Vong decided that Nathan was the goddess Yun-Coria's messenger of avenging that which was made wrong: Yun-Avengane.

Yuuzhan Vong War (cont.)
"May I pass?"

- Nathaniel Kenobi Solo to Ganner Rhysode after killing a lot of Yuuzhan Vong warriors at the Well of the World Brain

During the Mission to Myrkr, he refused to become part of the battlemeld the Jedi had created. He didn't know why, he just didn't like it. This would later help him to not fall under someone else's influence.

He, unlike the other Jedi, did not get captured on Lando's ship. He and Zossk made it look like they were accidentily forced out into space via the garbage chute. Instead, they ghosted onto the Yuuzhan Vong vessel and made the crew uneasy, sometimes appearing as a mythical Yuuzhan Vong space spector.

He and Zossk eventually killed the voxyn and warriors guarding the captured Jedi and gained control of the ship.

When the group went into the worldship he stayed in the front lines, killing as many Yuuzhan Vong as possible, trying to gain his wounded friends some respite. Although Anakin was considered the strike team's leader, Nathan didn't concern himself with such frivolities.

When they encountered the Dark Jedi Lomi and Welk, he was one in favor of living them for dead, only based on the reason that he felt something "wrong" about them. This would later come true during the Dark Nest Crisis.

When they reached the defunct AT-AT, he used force lightning to charge its blaster cannons for a couple seconds, buying the Jedi some time to escape.

When Anakin was wounded defending Jaina with Nathan, while she was incapacitated by blorash jelly, Nathan carried him so that h could regain his strength quicker. Anakin didn't like the idea, but as Zossk Sadeet put it: "My Master can be, very persuazive."

- Zossk Sadeet talking about Nathan's influence through the Force.

When Anakin died defending them from the Vong, Nathan managed to get the Yuuzhan Vong's trained voxyn to attack one another, giving the Jedi and Anakin more time. He felt his adopted brother's death, and his sweetheart's anger. Terrified of losing her to something only he knew how to control, he remained by her side constantly, making sure her actions could remain in check.

They escaped Mrykr and fled to Hapes.

After he helped bring Jaina back to the light, because after the death of brother, Anakin, and the dissapearance and supposed death of Jacen, she had fallen.

During the Borleias mission, he had an urge to help the Shamed Ones. Something kept prodding him to do it, so after a goodbye to Jaina, he went with Luke's striketeam to Coruscant. Here he departed from them and helped create a Shamed underground and also helped bring the "heresy" they had created to bear fruit, as the Shamed watched their "redeemer" help them.

When Jacen Solo and Ganner Rhysode were on the planet, he realized that he was meant to save Jacen, before anything happened to him. Leaving Ganner behind to keep the Yuuzhan Vong at bay, he assisted Vergere and Jacen in their escape.

Shortly after, Nom Anor took over his duties teaching the Shamed as the Prophet, (although, he didn't know it was Nom Anor) Nathan thought that he had done his part.

"I believe the word she was looking for gentlebeings, was fire"

- Nathan to the crew of the Kstarr, after surprising Jaina.

While Jacen and Vergere were leaving to Mon Calamri, he ghosted to the captured Yuuzhan Vong cruiser, Kstarr and Jaina. She was busy directing the battle, when she felt something kissing her: It was Nathan making as dramatic an entrance as possible.

They won and he returned to Mon Cal and was voted as an ulterior member of the new Council, taking the place of a missing Council member, which he did several times.

He participated in the Battle of Ebaq 9. When the Jedi were forced to land on Tarkin's Fang, he "coerced" a furious Jaina to flee into the tunnels while he held the Yuuzhan Vong off.

Twin Suns Squadron (of which he was a founding member) was assigned to protect his parents, while they were attempting to re-establish communications across the GFFA. So he joined them, but only for a while.

After the excursion to Bakura, he was messing with his grandfather's holocron, while Jaina and Zossk entered his room. He finally managed to get it to work and was dazzled by his ancestor's exploits.

Explanations About the Past
The trio watched as Nathan's grandfather explained his story. He told of The Vandal Wars and the Battle of Jrack.

He told of how Ferus Olin and Anakin Skywalker were his greatest friends. He told of the betrayal and pain he felt at discovering that Anakin had betrayed them.

Nathan Sr. had gained two apprentices earlier that day, one was named Ada Fey'lya and the other was Udo Rand. He had found both strong in the Force and could not decide which to pick, so he chose both of them.

He and another friend named Jak Virtus had tried to defend the younglings, but to no avail. He managed to sneak out by utilizing his ghosting power, taking Udo and Ada with him.

Thanks to Bail Organa, they escaped and fled to Belsavis. Unfortunately, they could not reach it, as they were stopped Gilad Pellaeon. They changed plans and went to Kamino, seeking to destroy the cloning facilities.

Particurarly about the group of sizable Jedi still left on the colony of Novus Kamino Prime. Seeing an oppurtunity to help stregthen the already low Jedi morale, he kissed Jaina goodbye and promised to marry her after he was done.

Schism
"Did my grandfather intend for the colony he established to be so mired in apathy, that they would execute one of their own?"

- Nathaniel Kenobi Solo to the members of the Novus Kamino Prime Council about the interrogation of Wakdraxon

Nathan's adventure was to take a turn for the worst, when a Rodian Peace Brigade member, Eutrus, passed on this classified information to his Yuuzhan Vong superiors. The Yuuzhan Vong quickly made plans to kill the unsuspecting Jeedai of the colony, before they could adapt as the Jedi of the GFFA had done. Zossk Sadeet learns of this and goes to Nathan's last known coordinates to warn him.

Nathan arrived in the Ottiumigos Centrality and finds his long-lost father, but learned that not only was he the false messiah, he was a Clawdite Dark Jedi. Thanks to the efforts of Ada Karr, Crash, Sneaky, and Flyboy, Nathan was able to escape Ottiumigos Prime, but Flyboy was killed.

Nathan then meets his grandfather's old friend, Doc and gets an update on the situation. He then proves that he is the savior by ghosting. Prime Minister Taun We and Jedi Masters Plett and Pandraxon then grant him partial control of the fleet and colony. Nathan assumes his grandfather's role as Slag One and began campaigns against the Traitors.

After a month of endless hit and run strikes, Nathan had had enough: now was the time to hurt his father. Unbeknowest to him, Nat'ahn has had a child by his Zeltron concubine Dina, named Dal-tone Mandrex. Now unafraid that his line would end, he authorizes deadly force against his estranged son.

Disobeying Brashus's orders, Nathan attacks his father's fleet in a space battle and wins. Impressed, Brashus offers him his position, but Nathan refuses, saying that he is here to save them, not gain a position that would encumber them.

When the victorious Jedi return to Novus Kamino Prime's Jedi Temple, they discover it ablaze and under attack by the invading Traitor Dark Jedi. One is captured and is tortured for information.

When the captured Dark Jedi's, Pandraxon's daughter Wakdraxon, condition is revealed to Nathan by Doc, he stops the interrogation and uses a simple mind probe and sees Kelakus' slaves.

Zossk, meanwhile, encounters the Yuuzhan Vong above the world of Toola, whose native Whiphids had suffered grievous losses in battle. She fought the advance agents and manages to flee to Nathan, warning of the Yuuzhan Vong. Nathan, to the surprise of Zossk, laughs and thanks for the concern. He has already had his troops combat-ready for the Vong, equipping them with weapons supplied by his soon-to-be wife Jaina Solo.

Nathan devises a plan to end the war once and for all: while the main battlefleet, under Brashus, focuses on the Yuuzhan Vong, and another on Ottimumigos Prime, he will lead an assualt on the manufacturing world Kelakus.

The plans are drawn, the battles begun, the end in sight. The Yuuzhan Vong attack Novus Kamino Prime, but thanks to Zossk and Brashus, they are easily defeated. Partial thanks is given to the fact that several Jedi could sense them in the Force, just like Nathan. Sensing defeat, Supreme Commander Vlek Shai, jumps to the Kelakus system. Intent on causing as much destruction as possible.

The feint at Ottimuigos Prime is semi-successful, because Nat-ahn flees when he realizes that is not their intended target. He finds his son on Kelakus and threatens his new child's life, unless Nathan comes and lets them finish it once and for all.

Even though he follows the Potentium, the scared cries of his half-brother resonate through the Force, so Nathan accepts the challenge: winner take all!

Not the best lightsaber duelist, Nat-ahn uses his shapeshifting and guile to try to win Nathan over. A chance mind probe on his part, reveals whom Nathan loves and Nat-ahn promises to take very...special care of her. Since he had been holding back until then, Nathan lets loose the fury of all nine Corellian hells.

Vlek Shai comes into the fray and attacks the two Force-sensitives. Evenly matched, Vlek and Nat-ahn gang up on Nathan. The two foes almost subdue him, but remembering the promise he had given Jaina, and the cries of Dal-tone, Nathan finds all the willpower he needs and conquers his opponents. Slicing the duo in six neatly cut pieces.

With their leader dead, the Traitors surrender and receive a full pardon. Nathan takes most of the Jedi and clones to the Core, so that they can help in the retaking of Coruscant. He and Jaina also adopt Dal-tone.

Unfortunately, Dal-tone was born with a defection, his heart and lungs were not large enough to support his tiny body. He died the following year and was buried with honor on Ottiumigos Prime.

Post Yuuzhan Vong War: Naboo
"It's bad enough you had to fight Vader and lose. Didn't you get it then? There is no dark side, only fools and idiots, such as you!"

- Nathaniel Kenobi Solo to Darth Maul's resurrected spirit

After the final battle and the retaking of Coruscant, Nathan and Jaina married. Their honeymoon took place on the planet Naboo.



While attempting to land there, their ship&mdash;which was a wedding present from Talon Karrde&mdash;was shot down and they had to get to the escape pods and in the process got seperated from each other.

Nathan awakes to the strange city of Otoh Gunga and was met by an old Gungan, who told him of some Jedi that had helped him out in the past.

Jaina awoke to an even stanger setting. She did not know who or what she was! A man came into the room and informed her that she was to be his bride in a few days and that he was a Sith Lord and she would be his second-in-command. His name was Darth Pravus.

Nathan agreed to help the Gungans and Humans who had been exiled by the Sith Lord, on the condition they help him find his wife.

Darth Pravus goes back into his chambers and talks to the Force ghost of Darth Maul. He tells him everything is in order and is going to plan. Maul smiles and thanks the Sith for helping to bring about more glory to the name Sith.

On an espionage mission, Nathan finds out that all of the droids that had been left behind after the Trade Federation's invasion: have been reactivated! And even worse, they were building ships to threaten the already weakened Galactic Federation of Free Alliances! During the mission, he spots Jaina and attempts to bring her back into the light. She feigns it and stabs him in the stomach! Leaving him for dead, she returns to her new Master.

Thanks to the help of the Gungans, Nathan was able to escape and plan the destruction of the droids. But thanks to an information tap, he was able to discover that Pravus was to leave for the planet Rakata Prime, more specifically to the "reborn" Star Forge, so that they could create another droid army. Contacting the Galactic Federation of Free Alliances, Nathan was able to receive a battlefleet to destroy the Sith.

In a fierce lightsaber duel, he manages to retrieve his wife and kill both the Sith Lord and Maul's force ghost, which had manifested itself in Pravus' body. and Admirals Gilad Pellaeon and Traest Kre'fey were able to destroy the Star Forge.

The happy couple continued their honeymoon elsewhere, somewhere safer, like Nar Shaddaa...

Sullust
"Many famous people have come from Sullust, padawan. Though few things have ever happened here. Some people go as far as to say it is a "dead planet". Which makes it the perfect target for these criminals."

- Nathaniel Kenobi Solo to Grapper

Following the aforementioned events, Nathan and Jaina had two children: Mariz Kenobi Solo (a variation of Mara) and Anakin Kenobi Solo. (For his dead adopted brother.)

He also relocated the Whiphids because of the devastation caused on their homeworld, Toola.

In 24 ABY Falleen and Sullustan thugs Reckz and Klic Niuv witnessed the downfall of Black Sun at the hands of the Jedi Knights. They were able to escape by altering their retinas and fleeing to Sullust, of which Black Sun did not have a base located at. They plotted to ressurect it, but under a different name and purpose: Black Nova and for the fueling of the anti-Yuuzhan Vong movement, so that while the GFFA and the Jedi were occupied with that, they could begin to plunge the Galaxy into civil war, selling weapons to both sides.

They were not in this alone, a Dark Jedi named simply, Pelis Helrote, a Givin, had given instruction on the matter, sensing an oppurtunity to revive the Sith's control over the Galaxy.

Luckily for the Galaxy, Jedi Masters Jaina Solo and Nathan intercepted their plans on a smuggling bust. Nathan alerted his former apprentice, now Jedi Knight Zossk Sadeet and her apprentice a female Clatear named Clig'orh, so they joined them in destroying it from within.

The Bothan leader, Reh'mwa, had contacted the Black Nova and agreed to deal with them. Nathan's Sif'krie apprentice, Grapper, found out and alerted her Master. Nathan arranged to have his group scheduled to "guard" the shipment.

More than halfway through, Nathan felt a dark influence and told the others to start without him. He followed the presence, awaiting a trick or a trap. It was sprung, but thanks to his logic and danger sense, he was able to avoid the Givin's attack. He asked why the Dark Jedi was attacking him and why he hated the Yuuzhan Vong.

The Givin replied that he didn't care, except that it would advance his own needs. Nathan and the Dark Jedi battled, while Jaina and the rest of the Jedi sabotaged the mission. Unfortunately, Reh'mwa had prepared for this and ordered a group of Bothan Assault Cruisers to attack them.

When Nathan realized how close they were to Sekot, he left the Dark Jedi alone and went to the bridge. The two crimelords were about to release the coordinates of Sekot, when Nathan killed them unmercifully with Force crush.

His plans falling all around him, Reh'mwa left the Jedi alone, provided his name was kept out of the ordeal.

Meanwhile, the Givin Dark Jedi charged the Jedi, but he was struck down by a blastershot from behind, Nathan had had enough.

The Jedi's mission successful, the rest of the Order sent the surviving members of the Black Nova into prison. Nathan and Jaina took a well deserved break, which ended up with the conception of their youngest child, Jacen Kenobi Solo.

Swarm War
"Miss me?"

- Nathaniel Kenobi Solo to Welk



When Raynar's call came Nathan did not receive it. For he had not been part of the battlemeld. Even though he did not feel it, he went to find his wife. Following clues, he was led to a strange planet, filled with blue Killiks, which attacked him. After defeating them, he saw an old "friend", Welk. Engaging him in a lightsaber duel, he was about to be killed when out of nowhere, he was pulled from there and brought to the past.

Astonished he noticed his grandfather, grandmother, and his mother, accompanied by another woman, albeit alien, named Asajj Ventress. She told him that he was not dead and that it was not time for him to die either. She taught him more long-lost Force powers that would become relevant later.

He learned several lost techinques from older Orders of the Jedi. Such as Force stasis, Psychometry, Battle Meditation, Force Storm, and the ability to user his lightsaber's energy to flow over him, making himself pratically invulnerable! When his aunt Mara and uncle Luke were fighting Gorog, he ghosted back and ignited his lightsabers, except they didn't come from the blades. He had become the lightsaber! With a quick strike, he apparently killed Welk.

While his wife and Zekk were Joiners still, he, Anakin, and Mariz got into their Stealth-Xs and went out to rescue Jaina. Jaina and Zekk had enough problems on their hands though. Welk had not died, but had come back for more! He captured them and told them that they were merely the bait.

Nathan came regardless and with the help of his children&mdash;and a couple well-hidden YVH droids&mdash;slew Welk for eternity.

Corellian Insurrection
"If you must..."

- Nathaniel Kenobi Solo speaking to Jacen Solo through the Force about his "fall."

While Jaina was busy on Corellia, he, Mariz, and Anakin went to Balmorra to investigate illegal weapons sales.

After learning that Jacen Solo and Ben Skywalker had been attacked in a similar situation, he and his children fled the weapons complex, but not before setting charges to destroy the droid shipments going to the Corellians.

Unfortunately, he and his children were met by a collaborator, a Force-senstitive one at that. Someone only known by the term given by Mariz, "Vongerella".

Nathan dueled with her while his children fought off the security guards. Neither fighter could subdue the other, so he escaped with his children to report this to Master Luke.

They regrouped with the other Jedi and discussed what to do next. He attended the peace talks at Kuat and decided not to go with Jacen, seeing that his presence was not required.

Later, he felt Jacen seemingly "fall" to the dark side, but he knew better. It was what he and Jacen were all along&mdash;the truth.

Mandalore
On a diplomatic mission to Mandalore Nathan and Jaina were met by Brek, a former friend of Nathan's from Novus Kamino Prime, who had left for Mandalore. They were honored guests of them, because of the ties they had with them, notably their last names. They had also brought Anakin and Mariz so that they could gain experience on diplomacy.

The mission is doomed to failure when insurgents within the Mandalorian ranks attack the party planned for the talks. Brek is killed and all hope lost for the Kenobi Solos to escape Mandalore alive.

In the confusion, Nathan loses his lightsabers and all he has left is his malfunctioning blaster, a result of not repairing it.

Having never visited Mandalore before that date, Nathan's ghosting power is almost useless, but he gets them out of the dining hall before it explodes.

Trekking through the planet's rainforests, the Jedi are seiged by the planet's flora and fauna, and are being tracked by the most skilled hunters in the Galaxy!

The Mandalorian insurgent's leader, Kaji Ordo, made their assasination his top priority. He sent bounties on them that covered Mandalore.

Nathan and Jaina managed to deak with most of them, including the capture of a Force-sensitive Togorian Mandalorian. Her name was Jaki Fett. Because of their ties to the Mandalorians, she agreed to help give them safe passage off Mandalore, so that the GFFA could be alerted to their situation.

They succeded in escaping and Nathan regained his lightsabers, but due to the honor code of the Mandalorians, he fought Kaji with two vibroblades. He killed the Mandalorian and the insurgents followed his command.

These Mandalorians would prove useful in the Battle of Ruusan.

Sith Crusade
"You-you're a Jedi! Y-yo-you don't k-k-kill people!" "Perhaps...and perhaps not, it's all you monsters deserve!"

- Nameless Sith trooper and Nathaniel Kenobi Solo

Nathan and Jaina stayed happily married for the next few years, until the Battle of Dathomir. Jaina was killed controlling the Jedi attack force there. She was personally slain by Darth Micail.

Grieving his wife, Nathan took his family to Novus Kamino Prime and prepared them to fight against the Sith.

The Sith arrived in 63 ABY, and even after two years of intense training, the Ottiumigos Centrality and the Colonies still fell to the Sith in the Battle of Novus Kamino Prime. Nathan managed to escape with his children, some Jedi, and the last of the clonetroopers.

Nathan tried to gain an advantage, so he ghosted onboard the Sith's flagship, hoping to kill Micail for killing his wife. He failed, but vowed to destroy him, even if he had to renounce everything he was.

After the battle, Nathan and his three children wandered the cosmos, helping those in need and destroying anything that flew under Darth Abeonis' banner. He finally settled down with the surviving Jedi at the newly-formed Galactic Commonwealth. He and Kyp Durron became the Grand Masters of the Order and attacked the Sith at Ruusan, to prove they were a threat to be taken seriously.

He and Tenel Ka attacked the rogue Sith Lord Darth Dimicatio and Micail. Nathan was the first to strike, killing his wife's murderer instantly. Tenel took care of Dimicatio and they returned to Hapes.

It is suspected that since Jacen Solo had disappeared, that Tenel and Nathan began a relationship, but no biological offspring are ever recorded, so the validity of this remains open to debate.

Hutt Space
Seeing that any campaign against the Galactic Commonwealth would be costly and foolhardy, Abeonis ordered the invasion of Hutt Space, because of a recent alliance the two groups had made, which consisted of weapons deals and other traded goods.

Seeking to destroy the traitorous Hutts, he sent a massive battlefleet there to destroy them. He also kept a sizable force near the borders of the Commonwealth, just in case the Jedi got any ideas about defending their new allies.

Using special Fallanasi training he had received, Nathan tricked the Sith into believing that the Commonwealth's fleet was staying put, rather than going to assist the Hutts.

They reached Nal Hutta and the battle began. Nothing really happened and the three groups agreed to a ceasefire. Provided that the Hutts would sell to both sides and that the Sith would recognize the Galactic Commonwealth as a government.

The Search for Jacen Solo
Sometime during the Sith Crusade, former Jedi Master Jacen Solo joined Abeonis' Sith. He was in charge of assasinating Chief of State Cal Omas along with Tigris, but, unfortunately for him, Luke Skywalker intervened and the attempt was botched. Following this and a disagreement with his superiors over the Battle of Coruscant, Jacen left the Sith, and just...disappeared.

Nathan, who had been a friend of Jacen's from birth, wanted to find his adopted brother, wanting to forgive him for past transgressions. He left Kyp Durron as the official Grand Master of the Commonwealth, until he returned. If he did, that is...

Along with surviving Jedi, including former apprentices Zossk Sadeet, Grapper, and Clig'orh, he began to track where Jacen would be. Informants and double-agents had no clue, save one dying Barabel a former Sith Knight. She told that Jacen would be near a friend, a very powerful one at that.

Nathan, trying to decide which "friend" she could have meant, flow-walked into Jacen's past to find a clue as to find the answer.

Repeated investigations into the past revealed Jacen's greatest ally: the World Brain on Coruscant. Where better to hide from your enemies, than to be right under their feet?

Nathan trekked into the undercities, before the Yuuzhan Vong War the planet's natural inhabitants were tought to destory, but thanks to the Yuuzhan Vong's introduction of newer creatures from their former homeworld the species had become even more formidable.

The quartet battle against waves of dianogas, Cthons, Coruscanti ogres, granite slugs, remnants of a failed attempt to re-create the voxyn, and a group of "migrated" rakghouls. Eventually, they reached the location of the World Brain, but they were met by a group of fifteen Force-sensitives, all bearing red lightsabers and scarred from head to toe with ancient Yuuzhan Vong marks.

Nathan attempted contact, but was broke off by their leader, named Krag Yaght. He said that they were the redeemed watchers of the World Brain, forced to do so by Zonama Sekot, because of past deeds against the "infidels". Recently, a friend of theirs from the past returned and had given them the knowledge that the Brain would be placed under attack by enemies. More specifically, ones weilding lightsabers.

Trying to find a peaceable solution, Nathan tried to remind them that he had been viewed by the Yuuzhan Vong as Yun-Avengane and that as such, his word could be trusted and that he was only looking for a family member. The protectors, naturally cynical, drew their lightsabers, but Nathan quickly collected them through the Force. He said that he could have easily killed them all, but he wouldn't, and as a sign of his friendship, gave the lightsabers to their proper owners. He again said that he was looking for a family member, and was answered by a voice from the shadows.

"The knowledge you seek will only make you grieve, young Master. Leave now and the pain will be erased from your thoughts forever."

- Jacen Solo to Nathan.

When Nathan heard the voice, he knew immeadiately who it was. He raced to his brother and hugged him, letting loose the tears he held for so long. He began to forgive Jacen for what he had done, but Jacen said to stop. Now was not the time for emotional displays. The Sith were coming to destroy the World Brain, so that they could stop its attacks on their people. He was going to defend his friend and had already forseen his death. He asked Nathan and the three other Jedi to leave, not wanting to add more guilt on Nathan's heart.

"Always in motion, the future is...That means I'm staying."

- Nathan mimicking Yoda to Jacen.

Nathan answered with one of Yoda's favorite maxims, and said he would stay to help his sibling. Jacen, touched by his adopted brother's resolve and forgiveness, accepted the offer and began to prep the Yuuzhan Vong guards for the coming battle.

Sure enough, the Sith arrived in force and the force-sensitives held their ground. The Sith then began to release a toxin, similar to Alpha Red, so that they could destroy the Brain without much loss. Luckily, Jacen had been a part of the planning group, and, like his "master" Vergere years before, had found a way to stop it.

The Sith, without their trump card, ran enmasse towards the defenders of the Brain. Most died before getting close to the Jedi, victims to a razor bug, or to Nathan and Jacen's force lightning.

Unfortunately, Jacen was soon surrounded by hundreds of troops, mimicking a decision the two siblings had made with Ganner, Nathan was forced to leave Jacen behind, but not before slaughtering the remaining troops.

Feeling Jacen's death in the Force, Nathan decided that the Brain's best option would be to leave to another planet, as the Sith would never rest until it was dead on Coruscant.

Ghosting it to his ship, Nathan's Fury&mdash;which had been fitted with a cloaking device, courtesy of Talon Karrde&mdash;Nathan and the surviving members of the searchers fled.

Realizing that his brother's prophecy about his own death was true hurt Nathan. He had watched all of his siblings die. Anakin had been the first, then Jaina, and finally Jacen. All of his adopted family was dead. He grew depressed and was never the same again. He relinquished his role as the Jedi's Grand Master in favor of Kyp, but still remained on Hapes for training of padawans.

Revenge is Sweet!
In 29 ABY, a small child was born, a small child which seemed to have been born with several birth defects, which also made it appear as if the child had died. But, in truth, the child was well, and thriving, but harboring a hatred for the murder of its father. That child was named Dal-tone Mandrex, its father was Nat-ahn Mandrex, and the one he sought to kill was Nathaniel.

Dal-tone joined the Sith Order of Decreto at the start of the war, lying low, waiting for the correct moment to strike. His moment came when Nathan fell into his depression. Seeking to destroy everything that he held dear, Dal-tone contacted collaborators within the Galactic Commonwealth and asked them for information that could bring his plan to bear fruit.

More specifically, they were to look at who Nathan associated himself with, and who among them would make him come blindly into a trap. The agents informed him of Nathan's strong ties to his family, and that it was rumored that he was the consort of Queen Mother Tenel Ka.

Mariz, Jacen, and Anakin had been sent on a scouting mission to Kashyyyk, trying to help ascertain the best location for an assault to free the Wookiees from the Sith.

Suddenly, their connection to the Force was dimmed and they were attacked from all sides by assassinlike aliens. Their lightsabers useless, they used the blasters their father always made them carry just in case of that occurance appearing.

Unfortunately, even the best training can be undone by even superior training. The trio were stunned and brought before Dal-tone, or as he was known by the Sith: Darth Vindicar.

Nathan, upon hearing about this from Tenel, charged to his ship, but found it impounded. Tenel walked beside him, telling him that she wouldn't be a good friend if she let him go in his current state. She would attend to the matter personally, there was nothing to worry about.

Disgruntled, he returned to his room, writing a book on what he had learned of the Force in his years: Potentium: Why It Owns Your View of the Force. Reading through a passage on loyalty, he knew that Tenel would fail, citing a negative feeling he had received.

Indeed, even in his weakened state, Nathan could still preceive the Force better than other experienced Jedi, and his intuition had proven correct when Tenel was captured by Darth Vindicar himself.

Furious at not leaving earlier, he charred the guards surrounding his ship, feeling no regret, as his depression weakened his conscience, making him even more unpredictable. Fortuntely, the guards survived and told Kyp Durron what had occurred. With both the Queen Mother and a Grand Master in trouble, not to mention the Grand Master's children, things looked very gloomy for the Commonwealth. He decided to have Zossk Sadeet and Raynar Thul search for them.

Nathan arrogantly charged the defenses on Kashyyyk, but ghosted out before they destroyed his ship. He went in the undergrowth, eventually joining up with the planet's resistance, headed by up an old friend: Lowbacca. The old friends collaborated on the best course of action to take.

Meanwhile, Zossk and Raynar managed to use more stealthy methods to reach them, namely attacking a Sith freighter and killing all of the crewmembers, then posing as them to get on the planet. They rendevoused with Nathan and Lowbacca, who had discovered the Sith's location.

They trekked through the Shadowlands to their destination: the former Wookiee capital of Rwookrrorro. Dal-tone lied in wait, torturing his step-family mercilessly. But every time he performed an act of torture, it drove Nathan ever onward.

They came to the capital city and infiltrated the Governer's building. Nathan watched as Mariz, Tenel, Anakin, and Jacen were tortured to the verge of death and then brought back at the last possible second. He had always taught his family to accept pain as they would a congratulations, but he knew that even the most strongest-willed Jedi could be brought to despair.

He walked towards them, untied their bonds, and just stood there. Stood there drawing on the light to strengthen him, to fill him with the mercy he needed to show. Dal-tone watched, astonished that the Grand Master did not do as planned and attack him.

Furious, he leapt down and dueled Nathan, while his personal Sith Knights fought the remaining Jedi. Nathan did not even try to come on the offensive, seeking to teach both himself and Dal-tone a lesson in the way a Jedi should be.

Nathan gave a monologue to Dal-tone during their fight, talking of how he failed his father and his family by no being more compassionate towards them. He had tried to save Dina, since she was a lowly concubine, but she had died of a borken heart, and could not bear the thought of her husband's killer helping her. He had tried to get medical doctors for Dal-tone, Nathan stopped, puzzled. How in the galaxy could he be here if he had died over fourty years ago?

At this Dal-tone laughed and revealed that he had not died, but his father had planted a false child to deceive Nathan in case he should fail. He had been raised by surviving Traitors with a hatred for him and his ideals and now, after waiting a lifetime, literally, he would exact his revenge.

Nathan countered by saying that it was his father's fault, he should have prepared the colony more for the threat they would face. He said that he desperately wanted to make up for abandoning Dal-tone, they were trying to give the Galactic Federation of Free Alliances and the Jedi much needed moral and couldn't waste time to help the Traitors.

Dal-tone stopped, wondering whether or not this was true. His father was a malicious person, who had enslaved entire populations for his own grand designs. His father had also killed all who opposed him, but was that so wrong? Couldn't that be the right way? Or, perhaps, had he been mislead?

The very thoughts tormented him and his father's spirit seemed to talk to him, telling him that he was a failure, that he was a disgrace and should have really died young. Dal-tone grew furious at the visions, telling them to go away.

He heard Nathan's voice shout out: ''Be gone, vengeful spirit! Let that which was made wrong, be corrected by a forgiving heart!''

Dal-tone stopped, watching the man who had saved him from himself and stumbled. He fell to the floor, exhausted. Nathan kindly picked him up and they escaped Kashyyyk.

The Galactic Commonwealth captured Kashyyyk and freed the slaves. Dal-tone worked to help bring the Order back to its former state of greatness, alongside his half-brother...

"Death" and Consequences
Nathan would remain a Grand Master&mdash;in name only&mdash;until the Successors War, where he died defending the only thing he had left to live for: His family.

Mariz and Jacen had been captured by the Sith and Jacen was tortured to death. Nathan arrived in a blaze of light, but the power he used weakened him, so he freed his daughter and told her to survive, to leave with Anakin and flee to the Unknown Regions, away from the Sith and wait till they were gone. With his last breath, he revealed that he had forseen that his "nephew", Cade Skywalker, would save the Order, but not before she and Anakin had died, so to prevent that, he told them to flee the Sith.

Mariz and Anakin took their families away to the Unknown Regions, staying with the living planet Zonama Sekot until the crisis was averted.

Their lineage would later provide the safety of the Galaxy for hundreds of thousands of years. Along with their relatives, the Skywalkers, the Kenobi Solos were some of the greatest Grand Masters and Watchmen the Order had ever seen. All because of a man fleeing his former friend and finding the peace and happiness sought for all of his life.

But, in truth, Nathan had not died. His body was put into cryogenic stasis on Coruscant, awaiting the day that the Jedi would need him the most. Sometime around the Refugee Era...

Cryogenics
For thousands of years, Nathan was kept under the watchful attention of a group of Polis Massan Force-sensitives. (Nathan had saved their mother from the factories of Kelakus during the events of the Great Schism and the grateful family agreed to care for him and his descendants for the rest of their lives, and generations onward.)

Two of the Force-sensitives were told to remain in stasis, waiting for a rightful person to come and reawaken the former Grand Master of the Galactic Commonwealth.

Year after year passed and the location of Nathan's "incaceration" was seemingly lost. He would appear at times in the outside world, though he was assumed to be a Force ghost and not a living, albeit frozen, ghosting Jedi.

One of these "appearances" was to Nathan's&mdash;well suffice to say a lot of great-grandchildren. He appeared to a doubting Jedi Master named Micale Kenobi Solo. He asked why his descendant was doubting. Micale replied that the Jedi had lost Ossus, and along with it, 5,291 Jedi Knights. Nathan replied with skepticism. "What does it matter that the Jedi are slaughtered right and left? We are Jedi and we will not be stopped by these pathetic attempts to destory us!"

- Nathan to Micale Kenobi Solo.

Micale wondered at the words of his ancestor. Longingly, he wished that he could bring someone as brave as the famous Avenger of the Jedi could come and assist them. Nathan replied that he could find a way, all he had to do was to go to a secluded area of Coruscant.

Resurrection
Micale trekked through to the site of Nathan's final resting place, wondering whether or not the war was finally getting to him. He passed by massive Cthons, but surprisingly, they did not attack.

Wondering why this was happening, Micale saw his ancestor again, only this time he seemed much clearer. Nathan told him the location of the controls and that they would self-destruct if he ever initiated them&mdash;an unnecessary procotion taken by the Polis Massans, who had realized the patient could injure himself with a "manual" de-cryostasian.

Micale paused, wondering if this was not some plot to reawaken a long dead Sith Lord.

"Oh, please, son. That's just too cliched. Besides, I am what am. Now that was all spiritual, wasn't it? Being a little sacrireligious is one of my better fortes."

- Nathan to Micale, trying to convice him of his sincerity.

Micale, knowing the "flawed" logic of the situation meant tha his ancestor was really the man he would free, followed instructions as he watched the man frozen in ice defrost. Still trying to be cynical, he ignited his yellow lightsabers and waited for the man to be completely done defrosting.

"Brr...feels like Hoth on its best day. How ya doin', kiddo? What? You haven't seen a cryogenically preserved famed Jedi of the New Jedi Order before? What do you people do for fun these days?"

- Nathan to Micale after defrosting.

Micale gasped, because the old, bitter man he had expected was not there. Instead a younger, less grey 26 year old stood before him.

"Surprised? I'm not. It's called I-used-a-Force-power-you-will-never-here-of-again-cliche. Get used to it."

- Nathan to Micale.

Meanwhile, Micale's wife&mdash;Daniell Kenobi Solo&mdash;had gone in search of her husband, since he had left her alone in their room during the middle of the night. Not an uncommon occurance, but he never left, for fear of leaving her. She knew that something major must have happened for him to leave.

Following him through utilizing their Force bond, she came upon the two and stood, shocked at the appearance of an old hero of the New Republic/GFFA. She approached him with caution, knowing that he had been known for his compassion, and his just anger at users of the dark side, ones who used it for personal gain, not for the sanctity of life.

He smiled and told Micale what a lucky man he was. It took the married couple to realize what he had said, until they got it and the trio laughed in the darkness of Coruscant. Silencing them with a wave of his hand, Nathan grew serious, wanting every possible thread of information on the Reavers. Micale said that besides first hand accounts from the Jedi on Ossus, no one really knew where they were like, how they were the way they were, or why they attacked in the first place. Nathan responded that these would be the first of many clues that would be the Reaver's ultimate downfall.

Gaining inspiration, Daniell mentioned that a family friend of theirs&mdash;Zack Fayne&mdash;had spent a large amount of time on Ossus and had been in contact with the Reavers, so long that it had almost led to his death. She didn't know where he was, but she suggested that only the Avenger of the Jedi could find him without help. Flattered, Nathan thanked them. He bade them to tell the Council of his return and as soon as he found the information he sought, he would return and lead the Jedi to victory over the Reavers.

Déjà vu?
Nathan had gone to Novus Kamino Prime, to go somewhere familiar to meditate on his next move. For some reason, he was attacked by Sith. Still weary from the stasis, he fled, waiting to gather his strength. Luckily, someone else was about to help him...

Zack was left stunned by the Sith's words and left alone silently on the unknown moon of the Unknown Regions. He quietly gathered up his things, and decided he much search for the truth, if that even existed anymore. He started up the civilian transport he had come in, and then felt an odd feeling. It was something he seemed to have felt before and recognized it, but his brain, if it could be called that, didn't seem to recognize it. He flew to the area the feeling was pulsating from, which was Ossus, the planet he had already visited many times.

He flew there, and found nothing. However, he felt that the feeling was drifting away from him, and his feelings led him away from the planet and towards the ruins of what had been Novus Kamino Prime. He decided that though it may be some trap, he must follow the feeling, and he decided to land on the planet and chase the mutual feeling.

Novus Kamino Prime. The planet had changed from the time Zack had been away. Previously a battle-torn planet from the Infinbelum Era, the planet finally started to prosper again, and produce life. Of course, some wounds would never fully heal.

He chased the feeling, and it seemed to run away from him every chance he had. Irritated by the time he was wasting, Zack decided to set up a trap for the thing he was pursuing. He raced ahead with Force speed, even then however, the being which he was chasing seemed to react to his speed and move faster. He then decided to cloak his presense within the Force, as he had learned from his old Vong teacher on Ruusan. He disguised himself, and raced ahead, and hid in one of the trees. Suddenly, the feeling he was chasing stopped right below him, and he jumped and tackled him to the ground. He was met with a man a bit older than him, dirty blond, about 26, and full of wisdom. Though he looked Zack's age, he could tell he was a lot older.

The man attacked, and Zack dodged and parried, when they were suddenly surrounded by a large group of Sith warriors. The man drew his Lightsaber, and prepared for battle. Zack clumsily prepared as well. They all suddenly rushed them, and they eventually held all of them off. When victory seemed nigh, a sudden figure burst out of the trees, startling them both, and Zack was slashed in the face by a sharp lightsaber blade. Right when the man was about to strike, his ally warped him away from the battle, and Zack saw no more.

When he awoke, he heard nothing, though he could see colorful blurs of different shapes. His ears then became attuned, and he heard a fire crackling, but couldn't see it. He asked where he was, and a voice responded he was in the main city of Novus Kamino Prime, the capital before the attack of the Sith Crusade. He asked the voice's name, and he replied that he was known as the Avenger of the Jedi. When Zack replied he had never heard of him, he heard a laugh and told him his actual name was Nathaniel Kenobi Solo. Zack was astonished, and didn't believe it possible. Then Nathan asked for his name.

"Zack Fayne, sir." "Really, you look, different. Not how they described you. More eerie, and you seem badly injured." "That is to be expected from Reaver torture." "So I hear. Now a quick question, are you blind Zack?"

- Zack and Nathan

In fact, Zack realized he was blind, and he felt a large scar across his already badly burnt face. It was probably from the lightsaber he came in contact with. He answered yes, and asked Nathaniel what he was doing here. He explained it was a long story, and he would tell him everything back on Coruscant. Slipping on his Yuuzhan Vong outfit and mask he wore to hide his now deformed face, he figured the only way he would be able to see was with the Force.

The New Sith
"Welcome Nathaniel Kenobi Solo. We hope you will enjoy our show. For as you will soon see, we are much more dangerous than any old Reaver."

- Alpha:NSRP-002

After leaving Novus Kamino Prime, the pair continued on to Coruscant. Because of Zack's curse to the whole Kenobi Solo family, he felt worried it might effect Nathaniel as well. He asked Nathaniel about this, and at first responded in this way.

"A curse? Ai-yee! My family is cursed, whatever are we to do?"

- Nathan

Then he became serious and asked if there was any way to reverse the curse. Zack replied that the only way he knew of was to get the Starspray plant, which only grew on Ossus. Nathaniel determined that their only course of action was to journey to Ossus and see if any still grew. Zack didn't like the idea, but was forced to go along anyway.

While on the way there, they were encountered by space pirates, who demanded that all the credits they had. Of course, the Jedi easily disposed of the pirates, and freed most of the prisoners on board. They then encountered a young, male Whiphid who would just not let go of Nathaniel or stop following him around. He introduced himself as Var'Unk, and wanted to train under Nathaniel to be a Jedi. Zack laughed, and Nathaniel thought about it for a moment, and then decided:

"What's one more apprentice? I mean you spend 4,000 years in suspended animation and people think you're the next great thing! You're on, kid. Show me what you got."

- Nathan to Var'Unk

As they all grouped together, the ship they were in suddenly started to float toward a large asteroid. Or at least, they thought it was an asteroid. When they arrived, Var'Unk ran into hiding, probably on Nathaniel's ship, when all went dark. After dim lights illuminated the area, Nathaniel was alone in a dark, gloomy hangar bay.

He ventured onward, and figured it was some sort of Asteroid field which the pirate ship had unintentionally drifted in to. He continued to search, when he saw Zack. However, when he approached, he was surrounded by Durasteel bars, and Zack floated up to a viewing balcony, with a man in a dark, leather cape at his right. The man announced that they were both prisoners, and they were the New Sith, and were to be feared. He then told Nathan if he could pass three trials, he would free Zack and they would be free to go. If he failed or refused, they would both die. Nathan grabbed his lightsaber and prepared for the tests.

The first test was of Nathan's endurance. The Sith put him through days of torture from different species and cultures, but Nathan proved to durable to fall victim to these tortures. Instead, he figured that he would find another way to torture him. He decided that Nathan would have to prove his knowledge of Sith lore, and for every question he got wrong, someone he knew would suffer. The first question was this. Nothing was worse than love, true or false? If he answered incorrectly, he was told Daniell Kenobi Solo would suffer. Nathan thought for a moment, and then responded...

"Please clarify. Love can mean different things. Compassion for others, love between a man and wife, the love of seeing your opponent's heart ruptured by your hand. Please elaborate."

- Nathan

The Sith Lord, flabbergasted at such a question, demanded that Nathaniel remained silent from now on. He decided that due to Nathan's impudence, he would skip that question. Next was Sith chronology. He must name the Sith Lords in the correct order of when they were Dark Lords of the Sith, Tulak Hord, Marka Ragnos, Darth Bane, Exar Kun, and Palpatine. If he failed to place them in the correct order, Micale would be the one suffering.

"Duh! Not a fan of the holobooks are you? Hord, Ragnos, Kun, Bane, and Palpatine. (I should know the last one, I helped kill him.)"

- Nathan.

He responded diligantly, and said there would be one final question. ''Lets's say you are at war. You are a famed military commander. You are the best duelist in land. However, one day, on the field of battle, you encounter your wife and children on the enemy's side. You meet in the field of battle. WHAT DO YOU DO?''

"Now let's see. The last time I asked for an elaboration, you cut me off, so I'm thinking of two answers to the question, both hypothetical, of course. Let's say they have joined the enemy freely. Then, I ghost them and myself out, leaving my army under my most faithful and trustworthy warrior. Figure out why they joined and learn how to stop it, if all else fails, a simple mind erasure will be apropos, one would think. Then I rejoin the fight against mine enemy. The second involves the invoulntary: I ghost them out, repeating the same events as before, but without the erasing. That was simple. You got any more brainteasers, O wonderful Master?"

- Nathan

No brainteasers, he replied. ''However, how would you like to fight them now? But of course for every time you either refuse to fight or get damaged by them, Zack here gets blasted with Force stagnate, I'd figure you are in trouble. Of course, you can never expect Sith to play fair now, can you? All of a sudden, Jaina and her children appeared out of the shadows, they were believed to be the real ones, as the Sith had commented, This is Han Solo's daughter yes, but brought back with the resolve to kill the one who let her die. You, of course.'' And with that, they attacked.

"Sigh, if I must."

- Nathan

Nathan ignited his lightsabers, as the others ignited theirs. He disappeared with his ghosting ability and used a Force illusion to cast his appearance on the Sith whow ould dare defame his wife's memory. Jaina, Mariz, Jacen, and Anakin, seeing their "killer", attacked the surprised Sith, killing him. That proves they're not illusions, thought Nathan.

"It didn't have to end this way..."

- Nathan talking to his resurrected family.

He reappeared and applauded his family. Seeing their "tormentor" still breathing, and knowing the other had been a trick, the Jedi attacked him. Nathan drew on the Force and flung a gigantic Force Storm at them. All of them writhed on the floor in pain. He searched their minds through their pain, offering death as the choice to break free. All answered yes and he increased the yield of his power. They died on the floor.

Nathan freed Zack, who stood, stuttering at him.

"How could you kill them? That's your family!"

- Zack

"My family is dead! They died years ago, these pathetic mockeries are the result of Sith alchemy! Jaina knew who killed her. Jaina and my children would have never chosen death as a release! They would have fought to the bitter end! I've known all along what they were. I just used them. You cringe? Ah, you think that power is dark, eh? No, they are the dark, sometimes the light and dark must become one to work, I have always been this way, Zack Fayne. I killed nothing more than monsters created by the Sith. Will you still follow me, Zack?"

- Nathan

Zack sighed and launched Nathan back with a tremendous Force push, probably backed by the Sith Lord, still infuriated. Startled, he backed up slowly. ''He's under our control now. Like he should be. This rogue pawn has captured his last piece''. Zack drew his Lightsaber, specially modified and covered with phirk, and leapt at Nathan. Parrying the mad Jedi's blows, he was surprised by the aggression of the attacks. He leapt backwards to avoid an attack, when he noticed the cage had been surrounded by ysalamiri, preventing the both of them from using Force powers. Nathan could feel Zack's anger and rage build up, as he transferred it into fighting energy. He then decided that if he was to stay on the defensive, he would eventually die. He decided he must go on the offensive. However, Nathan felt a fourth presence, besides the Sith and Zack and he. It was barely traceable, but powerful in its own right. It seemed to be emitting from Fayne's blade, increasing its power. He concluded it must be one of the cystals in the Lightsaber.

He pressed forward, attacking the tired Zack with the resilience of Jar'Kai. After weakening Zack to a standstill, the Sith Lord thought for a moment, and noticing Zack was weak, he goaded Nathan on, deciding their was little or no more use for him, and if information he held got out, they would be ruined.

"Go ahead, kill him. He will always be a Sith dog, and nothing more. The one you call Zack will never be good enough, nor light enough to be a Jedi. Think of the Sith in the past, the ones that killed your precious Jaina. This one is similar. He cursed you and your family. If he doesn't die, it will destroy your family. Kill him, its what any Jedi I know would do!"

- the Sith Lord

Nathan smirked and said: "That's all you think is on my mind, isn't it? Kill, kill, kill. Guess you're going to be proven right!"

- Nathan as he charges the ysalamiri.

Knowing the ysalamiri were dampening his power and that no antidote he and Cilghal had concocted four centuries ago would be availale, Nathan used his wits and brute strength to counter Zack. Noting that Zack had limited sensitivity, Nathan tried to find the source. It seemed to come from the crystal of Zack's lightsaber, if he could just get it, then he could regain control over the battle. He grabbed Zack's hand, while his free one grabbed the one with the blade. He spit in Zack's face, causing him to lose focus. Nathan wrenched the lightsaber away, "freeing" Zack, he reached the ysalamiri, feeling remorseful, although he knew it was the only way, he killed the Force-blocking creatures.

However, it seemed it wasn't the Lightsaber that was causing the problem. Zack tackled Nathan, sending him flying. Nathan then decided that only one option remained. The Sith Lord.

Nathan reached out, handing Zack his lightsaber back, a move which could have been fatal, except that Nathan had known of the return of the Force to them sooner than Zack. He pushed and pinned him to the wall, with enough force to knock him out without serious damage at all. Facing his true enemy, Nathan drew from the light and dark sides of the Force. The Sith prepared to parry his attacks, but Nathan had another ace up his sleeve: he used the forgotten Force power known as stasis and froze his opponent. Pointing his lightsabers to the air, Nathan skewered his adversary.

Knowing that the danger had passed, he sheathed his lightsabers and carried Zack away, beginning to use his medical knowledge to bring him back quicker. As he was walking away, he heard the begging of the Sith far back behind him, and then a wail and scream of death. He ran back to his ship, finally flying back to Coruscant, Zack still unconscious. He left him and his family alone, saying that he had to find out why the Reavers were resorting to this. He said it had worked just fine in the Yuuzhan Vong War, and history is known to repeat itself.

Reaver Search & Finding A New "Partner"
Nathan left Coruscant and headed to the start of all the madness: the Anoat sector, or more specifically, Bespin.

There, he witnessed firsthand the atrocities performed on prisoners. He watched as they were tortured for days on end, quite like the Embrace of Pain, except without the biological technology. Then, the prisoners were subjected to fire, a reminder of an old species' attack on the Reavers. Nathan noted that he must learn more about them.

He longed to free the prisoners, but, in his heart, he felt that they were serving his cause. He knew that was a selfish action, but the Force said otherwise. He began stealth missions into their datapods, trying to decipher their odd language.

Never a linguist by any means, he was stumped, especially since his tizowyrm had died during his cryogenic state.

Finally, he had had enough. Knowing that all Reaver history would not be given as freely as that, he decided to leave Bespin for other planets. But, as fate would have it, he felt the cries of a young Zeltron female prisoner. He felt the woman's cries through the Force, realizing she was Force-sensitive, and that he had been neglecting his duty to preserve life, he swept into the room, parrying lightwhip after lightwhip. Killing any who stood between him and the prisoners.

He was caught by the throat, a very sensitive part of body, ever since the Mission to Korriban, and knocked out because of loss of blood.

He awoke in a containment cell with the other prisoners. He was being bandaged by the Zeltron Force-sensitive. She thanked him for his help, but said that he had only delayed the inevitable.

"Nothing is certain. For instance: I could kill you all here right now with a thought. Or they could swarm in here and kill us all. Or maybe I could get us out of here. What do ya say to that, miss..."

- Nathan to the Force-sensitive Zeltron female.

She replied that her name was Astram and she was a former Sith, who had been captured after the Jedi had left Bespin.

"Well, Miss Astram. Let's get out of here shall we?"

- Nathan to Astram

She smiled and said that it would be impossible for him to do so, as his throat had lost countless drops of blood and any usage of the Force would further weaken him, no matter how adorable he looked. Laughing, and realizing he was indeed in such a predicament, he said that he was being followed by someone who could help. Someone who was already there.

Zack was stumbling around the planet, almost feeling the great amount of suffering that covered this planet. He walked ever onward, and then he felt a great pain. He couldn't describe it, but he knew it was bad. He proceeded quicker, and ran over to what seemed to be the containment cells. He cautiously entered the room, being wary of any Reavers or their traps. He entered, and just as a young Zeltron yelled in horror, he was knocked out cold.

As he awoke, he found himself on the ground, and a very large, bulky Reaver next to him. Startled, he looked around, and saw Var'Unk, with Zack's saber, and he noticed the Reaver had a hole through his back. Var'Unk said he took Zack's Lightsaber, and was about to stab the Reaver, but a 'scary black thing' leapt from Zack's cloak and killed it for him. He looked, and saw his Amphistaff chewing on the Reaver. He picked it up and snatched his blade, and asked Var'Unk why he hadn't freed the prisoners yet. Var'Unk said he wasn't tall enough to reach the switch. Zack laughed and easily pressed the button.

Zack was about to comment on him saving Nathan, but then he saw the Zeltron with him and he smirked and asked;

"Hey, ain't she a little young for you gramps?"

- Zack

"Gramps?"

- Astram

"Oho! I have been a little rude, haven't I? Well, long story short. I am Nathaniel Kenobi Solo, cryogenically frozen for four thousand years. The aging process went backwards for me and where once there was a 113 year old, you ended up with this. That's the problem with you young people these days: You're young!"

- Nathan

"Wow! 4,113 years old and you look like that?"

- Astram

They laughed, except for Var'Unk, who didn't understand the elder's jokes. Growing serious, Nathan directed his forgotten apprentice to show the prisoners to Zack's ship. He was to return to Nathan's and await his return after he had completed that. He had decided to buy them some time.

Astram and Zack refused to let him sway them away from his decision. Astram, because she knew that he would be the key to unlocking her Force power, and Zack for his loyalty to friends. Touched, Nathan said that they could stay, at least until the prisoners were fully boarded. A compromise agreed to, they attacked the Reavers.

Zack, a man true to his word, left when the allotted time fell, but Astram, feeling like she would lose him if she left, stayed. Zack escaped and went to Coruscant. Nathan and Astram fled to his ship and as he put it later: Got the jrack outta there!

Astram, Var'Unk, and Nathan headed to another Reaver outpost, and gained some time to learn about the other. Each appreciated the other's company, and as Var'Unk later said, It was too mushy for me.

New Zeltros
"I'd rather that we didn't use my name freely here, since my parents and family are ashamed of my very existence."

- Astram to Nathan

"Why is that?"

- Nathan

"Becuase I joined the Sith and betrayed your family as it were, since they were largely responsible for helping to relocate us during the Infinbelum Era"

- Astram

With that, the trio journeyed to New Zeltros, which was located near the planet Dathomir. Nathan had heard from Jedi intelligence that there were several collaborators on New Zeltros. Trying not to be reminded of the Peace Brigade from his past, Nathan wanted to learn why they had collaborated and how to stop them if need be.

They landed there and were met by several Zeltron guards, who had been ordered to search any incoming vessel's occupants and ships. Nathan tried to persuade them otherwise, but they were resistant to that technique. Then one of the guards recognized Astram, as he had been her betrothed from birth. She tried to deny it, but the soldier insisted that she be brought before the king and queen.

Nathan and Var'Unk followed, as he was given special authorization, for not only being a Jedi, but also of Zeltron descent, too.

The king and queen were astonished and angry when they saw Astram. The king left the room, while the queen explained to Nathan why he had done so.

Since Astram had disobeyed not only his orders, but their sacred laws on dealing with Jedi, she had been banned from ever walking on New Zeltros again, even if she was their daughter. Nathan apologized, as he had not been informed of all that information.

They were released and were given accomodations at their finest hotel, provided they try some of the, less legal parts of New Zeltros. Nathan, trying to get Astram to tell him everything he needed to know, got careless and had one too many of the special alcoholic drinks there. Sensing an oppurtunity she had been waiting for, Astram knocked him out and brought him to her superiors on New Zeltros.

Nathan and Var'Unk were prisoners of the Reavers, who had planned the whole ordeal originally for Zack Fayne.

"Another cliched Hey-hot-and-sexy-Jedi! I'm-in-need-of-help-and-oh-by-the-way-did-I-mention-I'm-dropdead-gorgeous-so-that-means-your-vulnerable-to-my-charms-routine. How many holovids must I see before I finally get it?"

- Nathan to himself

The Reaver in charge smiled and said it wouldn't matter in a few minutes, he had been selected to the highest honor ever for a captive: he was to skip the torture and just be cleansed by the fire.

"Oh, great. I knew that I should have looked at that sweepstakes ticket before I entered! Where's my attorney?"

- Nathan

He was told the only protector of the law present would be the flames of his "renewal".

"Yep, should have reread the ticket."

- Nathan

Astram, who was the cause of his worries, tried to make herself scarce, as she could not bear to watch the man she had helped integrate into the new timeline he had entered, and the man she cared for more than anyone else in the universe. Feeling something say to her that she could prevent it from happening, she gained new resolve and shut the controls for the fire off.

Nathan, who had been feining his "helplessness" so that she could realize what was more important, broke free and untied Var'Unk. He fought off the Reavers and collaborators, side-by-side with Astram.

The trio finished them off and reported it to the two monarchs of New Zeltros. Astram was pardoned and she decided to stay with Nathan, and the couple shared their first kiss.

A Little Help Please!
Nathan, Astram, and Var'Unk went back to Coruscant, because all of the Jedi were needed for a callback assignment. The Council had decided to not let there be anymore solo missions, the Jedi would work together to accomplish anything.

Nathan, who knew that his style conflicted with the Masters assembeled there, pulled rank and overruled their decision, basing it on what he and Zack Fayne had proved time and again was effective.

"When you say effective, do you mean 'You save my butt, I save yours?"

- Zack Fayne

"Something like that."

- Nathan

He, Astram, Var'Unk, and Zekel Skywalker joined together for the defense of the Mid Rim. The Reavers had launched several attacks very near the Mid Rim, and had also been reported to control the total slaughter of all insectoid species, which stood in their paths. Curious to learn of why they hated the insectoid species, the quartet moved to Thyferra, which was the location of a Chiss and Fifth Republic fleet.

The taskforce there was large, as it was the center of the bacta that the Galaxy desperately needed during the war.

Sure enough, the Reavers did attack Thyferra, with surprsing efficiency. The two immense allied fleets were rebuffed by the even more immense Reaver fleet. Nathan and the others attempted to save the Vratix refugees from being totally destroyed, as they held the key to its production.

Alas, it was all for naught, as the Reavers sacrificed their own ships to destroy their hated insectoid enemy's vessels. All the Jedi assembeled felt the deep hatred that the Force-sensitive Reavers sent through the Force and cringed. Nathan, who being the strongest there made a tactical decision to flee, leaving the other refugees behind. Something that Zekel reprimanded, even when he was told that they could have died as well.

Zekel parted ways after, due to morality conflicts with Nathan, so the now trio picked up Micale Kenobi Solo and Daniell Kenobi Solo.

Nathan trained Var'Unk and Astram in the ways of the Force, but in his very biased fact. He didn't worry about squabbling over politics, Jedi were meant to serve and protect, not do a Senator's job for them. Nevertheless, he taught effective communication for getting out of tight spots. Nathan tested Astram and Var'Unk to see if either could perform ghosting. Neither passed, but he was pleased that his genetics could still be witnessed by anyone who viewed Micale.

Manaan
After the Battle of Thyferra, Nathan, Astram, and Var'Unk went to Manaan.

They were assigned by the Council to protect the only other source of healing liquid available since the fall of Thyferra: kolto. The problem was that kolto had been hard to come by ever since the Galactic Civil War. Jedi scientists had surmissed that the kolto was attuned to the light side of the Force and any time the Jedi were brought to near-extinction, it became gradually less abundant.

Nathan felt that if the Reavers ever found its location and attempted to destroy it, then all hope for healing supplies would be ended for the Galaxy, at least, until Fifth Republic scientists found a new way to create synthetic medical supplies.

It was during this time that Nathan talked to his wife's Force ghost. She told him that it didn't matter what happened between him and Astram, all she cared for was his happiness and was content in the fact that he would join her one day, although, hopefully very far from that date. Nathan thanked her and started finding ways to talk to Astram and was about to propose, when they received an anonymous tip concerning Reaver activity on Manaan.

The trio followed the tip to the Hrakert Rift, the sight of another attempt to save the kolto thousands of years earlier. Wearing specialized Jedi contaninment suits, they traveled to the source of the disturbance: Reavers and Reaver collaborators.

They ignited their lightsabers and attacked. Nathan and Astram got seperated and he felt a tremor in the Force, her suit had depressurized due to a stray blastershot.

Deciding whether to save the kolto or her, he chose the latter, praying he could return from ghosting her away in time to save it as well.

He ghosted her to their submersible, ordering Var'Unk to watch her carefully. He came back and saw something horrifying, even to one as himself: the Rift's protector or the Progenitor had emerged, angry at the disturbance.

He witnessed the gigantic firaxa shark kill the Reavers and their allies without mercy and heard its scream, which temporarily blinded him to everything, including the Force. He collapsed from the strain, but as soon as he fainted, he felt a large finlike substance lift him up.

He awoke back in the submersible to an excited Var'Unk, who said that a giant fish threw him back in. Nathan sent his thanks to the protector through the Force and attended to Astram's wounds. He apologized to her for not getting her out sooner, but she cut him off, saying that he was foolish to act like that, because it wasn't who the man she loved was. They kissed and Nathan presented her with a large Corusca gem as a ring. She accepted and they wed on Coruscant.

The War Drags On
The newly-wed couple left Var'Unk in the capable hands of Micale Kenobi Solo, Daniell Kenobi Solo, and Welhruik, while they went to the ocean world of Mon Calamari, seeking to find someplace the war could not catch them. Alas, the Reavers had discovered a large Fifth Republic base there, and even though they abhored the very mention of water planets, they were planning to attack, nonetheless.

Astram and Nathan went diving in the planet's splendid coral reefs and witnessed its spectacular animal species. They even conversed with the Knowledge Bank. Unfortunately, the war came back as night hit Mon Calamari.

Nathan pulled rank yet again and took control over the battle from the less experienced recruits, as Mon Calamari had been the site of Fifth Republic rookie training.

Nathan piloted a Stealth JMx Starfighter and through his leadership, the Reavers were defeated. The Republic's first true military victory.

Dark Becomes Light and Then All is Gray
They returned to Coruscant just in time to learn that Micale Kenobi Solo had disappeared, leaving only a note that said his father would be avenged.

Daniell wept, stating that she was pregnant and he didn't know. She asked Nathan and Astram to help her find husband, as Zack was busy elsewheres.

Nathan took Var'Unk and the others and taught them more of what he had learned, specifically about the Potentium. Telling of its pros and cons and how it was different from the dark.

Their travels ended with them on Eriadu, or, what was left of it. It had been changed into the Reaver's new base of operations and Micale had gone into the thick of it, blinded by his anger and newfound arrogance.

Daniell felt him getting knocked out and being brought to Imperer Rex. She would have been knocked out as well, but Nathan had taught her a way to dampen their Force bond in case of said accident.

They slipped through the Reaver defenses with a newly-modified cloaking device or the Aiddat-class cloaking apparatus, named for one of the greatest Jedi of the New Jedi Order.

They met up with Zack, who had gone a different way, and proceeded to the underground sewers of the old ecumenopolis. They infiltrated the palace to see Micale being tortured by Revan Ceritops' lightwhip. Angered at the pain her husband was feeling Daniell disobeyed orders and struck, forcing the others out of hiding.

The two forces fought one another for a while, with the only success coming from the more-disciplined Jedi Masters. Revan and Imperer tried to gather the troops under their command, but it was total chaos.

In the confusion, Var'Unk managed to cut Micale free from his bonds and carried him to the hole Daniell had created in the wall.

Their quarry retrieved, the Jedi retreated back, much to the dismay of Daniell and Zack, who wanted to kill every last one of the Reavers.

Nathan countered by using an example his adopted brother had been famous for during the Yuuzhan Vong War: telling of how they could not be angered at the Reavers, that was how they were raised. If they had raised one of them as their own, then its values would be different. If they had raised a Jedi child, then its values would mirror theirs.

They returned to Coruscant, with Micale, who received a strict lecture from Nathan regarding the dark side.

Zack chuckled at Nathan's lecturing of Micale about the Dark-side, and told Nathan it was amusing how he used the Dark-side, but he lectured Micale about it. Nathan responded he didn't use the Dark-side for evil, and Zack told him that no matter what, he still used it. Nathan countered by saying that Zack used it as well, and Zack admitted to this, but said he wasn't the one giving the lecture.

"There is no dark side! Only fools and imbeciles who cannot see an acklay nine feet in front of them. The dark side was created as an excuse for the Jedi to not get power-hungry. These Jedi became the Sith. Fools, who did not realize the potential they could have mastered. It is true that too much of it is a bad influence. I, myself, have almost fallen under its sway many a time. But I persevered, remembering that I controlled it, and not it me. Now, Zack. Let us say that you encounter someone who has hurt someone dear to you. Is the usage of force-lightning in anger righteous, or, perhaps, the "dark side?""

- Nathan

"I would have to say, dark side, Avenger. I, have seen almost as much as you have in my life-time, and I don't know how one such as you could say there is no dark-side. I use it, yes, but I know it is evil. The dark side's powers corrupt the weak, and make the strong arrogant. If I am a fool, then let me be a fool. The dark side was not created, it has always existed. Just as light has existed, there must always be darkness. I was once a Sith, and if I said there is no dark side, I would be deceiving myself."

- Zack

"Correct, but let me rephrase my message. I meant that the only dark side is in your own mind, not the Force. The Force does not choose sides as an Umgullian blob gambler would. If you used force lightning to kill someone in self-defense, then the act would be considered good, unless you happen to be a Sith. But, for example, if you used it to constantly char your opponent's lifeless bodies in anger and then proceeded to kill unnecessarily, then that would be considered dark, as such an action is based on your cruelty to that person. Anger is a powerful emotion, use it well, but know that it can control you as well. Do not let it control you! Anything else you want to debate?"

- Nathan

Stumped, and thinking that he should no better than to try and outsmart him, as he probably had his entire life to learn to debate this, Zack angrily replied no and left to meditate in his chambers.

The End Is Nigh!
Nathan grew angry. How could the Jedi and Republic be losing ao horribly? Even the Chiss had all been wiped out by these invaders. There was a way, and he had to find it. No, we will find it, said Astram to him through their Force bond. Nathan smiled and agreed.

They took Var'Unk who had grown up during the war tired of the fighting and had just turned 8 years old. Nathan said some encouraging words and they were off to the Colonies, which was where the Reavers were beginning to just wear out the weakened Fifth Republic fleets. Who were tired of retreat after endless retreat.

Nathan hoped for a spark to reignite their resolve. He hoped that Fondor could be that spark.

The shipyards there had grown independant and sold to just about everyone, inclduing the Reavers. Luckily, Micale, Zekel, and Daniell had busted this operation eariler and it only supplied the Republic.

The Reavers had been outraged and placed a huge battlefleet to destroy the traitorous shipyard builders.

The Republic, already widespread in its usage of its fleet, could barely support in the defense of Fondor. On Coruscant, a call was made, and a plan enacted.

Nathan, oblivious to this, controlled the fleet, but knew it was a lost cause. Nevertheless, he managed to make it a very Ruusanic victory for them, scuttling the shipyards and destroying and/or damaging the majority of their fleet.

The call was accepted by a Jedi, a Master, who then alerted his trusted members to start Operation:Retreat...

Why Us?
Nathan and his family were invited to a meeting with Zekel Skywalker hosting it.

He waited patiently for Zekel to state the reason for them being there. He told of how, thousands of years ago, the Jedi had come up with a plan, one to save the Galaxy should the need arise.

The Jedi were to relocate every one to the Yuuzhan Vong's home Galaxy, so as to escape the threat that caused them to leave.

"Retreat? Retreat! We don't retreat! We're Jedi, there's always someway to save us! Look at the Jedi Purge! The one after that! We always had a way to return, what you're making this look like is a total defeat. I refuse to believe that!"

- Micale

"Sometimes, Micale, there isn't a way out for us, sometimes, we're as good as dead. But I will not let our fire be extinguished! I will personally lead the remnants of whoever wishes to stay behind and fight! I will cover your escape and make sure you can return! The Reavers will never rule this Galaxy for as long as I draw breath!"

- Nathan

"Thank you, Nathan. I am sure that we would stay, but since the Senate was destroyed on Second Battle of Mon Calamari, we are all that can control the people. The Jedi must protect the people, no matter where we live."

- Zekel

With that, the meeting adjourned and the Jedi left, except for Nathan, Astram, and Zack Fayne.

Nathan wept, for Zack had revealed to him the future of the Survivors, there was yet another threat they would face, possibly more powerful than the one they had faced before. He knew that Micale and Daniell would never leave if they knew, so he kept it silent, even from his wife.

The Jedi left and Nathan followed. The remnants of the Fifth Republic fleet and all the refugees gathered at the moon of Yavin 8. The Reavers were not far behind, but the Survivors managed to flee at the last second. Nathan commanded the only part of the fleet not supporting the refugees: one Jrack II-class Star Decimator and 4 Supernova I-class Star Destroyers. With this fleet, he planned to stall the Reavers long enough for the Jedi to flee. Unfortunately, after two hours of space combat, his forces weakened and the Reavers were able to escape Yavin VII's gravity well and pursue their quarry.

Nathan felt Zack's death in the Force, and wept yet again, another friend lost to these&mdash;these Reavers! ''They will pay! They will pay!'' he thought.

"Funny, I seem to remember someone saying that they could control their anger."

- Zack Fayne's Force ghost

Nathan backed away, angered that he had been caught in his own hypocrisy. "Zack, for the first time in years, and believe me, I know years, I feel afraid. For myself, for my wife, for my descendants. They're foolish, they can't do this alone."

- Nathan

"Come on, old man. Do you think I'm bound by these "spirit laws" the Jedi are usually enslaved to after death? I'm going to be there every step of the way. You have nothing to worry about, Nathan."

- Zack

Nathan thanked him.

Nathan remained in the Galaxy, striking fear into the hearts of the Reavers who dared remain in his Galaxy...

Resistance
Nathan and Astram had their first child, whom he named after a friend from Novus Kamino Prime, Derran Kenobi Solo.

With his friends who had stayed behind, they engaged only Reaver forces and bases where they knew they had the advantage. Something reminiscent of someone in the past who had employed similar tactics.

The Resistance never had a base, except for the Destroyers and Decimators they employed. They were a constant thorn in the Reaver's side. Nathan, knowing that the Reavers had destroyed the libraries on Obroa-skai, decided that they, unlike someone well-versed in the Galaxy's history, could be easily fooled just like the Yuuzhan Vong before them.

He layed plans on fortifying Ebaq Nine, chuckling at the irony and his plagarizing of Admiral Ackbar's plan to deliver a crippling blow to the Yuuzhan Vong.

Nathan waited as the Reavers pursued their quarry into a "dead-in". Nathan's other ships awaited his signal to lay hyperspace mines to follow the Reavers as they entered the system.

Boasting on his comm channel to them. He said that through his power in the Force he would cause all of their vessels to suffer massive damage.

Undaunted, the Reavers left hyperspace, just as Nathan gave the signal for the mines. Most of the Reaver ships were either crippled or completely destroyed.

Taking advantage of the situation, the remaining Republic ships launched several of the new Arnish starfighters to destroy that which remained.

The Reaver's ships were crippled and they recovered the spoils.

The Returning


He had always avoided it, even though his grandfather's family was orginally from Alderaan, but Nathan for some reason could not bear going to view the planet. During the War, he had tried to find out why he did not go, but it must have been a block he had sub-conciously made to protect himself from an earlier event happening there.

Astram figured this out and encouraged him to find it out. Nathan decided not to figure it out the easy way and just remove the mental block, but went to Alderaan to figure it out the old fashioned way.

Leaving Astram and Var'Unk, he went to The Graveyard and found the remains of several ships. The designs were very familiar to him, how could he forget the capital ships of Jasca Ducato? But the others were not as familiar, he assumed his mental block did not want him to find out.

He boarded the mysterious ship and was attacked by a strange force. He tried to fight with lightsabers, but it seemed to exist in a continous state of non-existance/existance, switching back only when it viewed the situation as safe for an attack.

Nathan swatted at it and managed to push it through a door, which looked like a bridge of some cult's design. Intrigued, he forgot about his attacker and uploaded the databanks.
