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 and his father's name was 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.

After the death of his mother on Jomark, Nathan was adopted into the House of Solo. There, he met his future wife, Jaina Solo, and grew in his knowledge of the Force and everyday experiences. After joining the Jedi Academy at the age of eight, he was given his grandfather's holocron, which would later tell him during the Yuuzhan Vong War the mysteries of his past and of the people he was ordained to save.

After finding and killing his father, who had been the threat he was supposed to remove, he became an honorary member of the Novus Kamino Prime Jedi Knights. Through the help of the Ottiumigos Centrality, he was able to save the Galactic Alliance from losing the last battle of the Yuuzhan Vong War and married Jaina. Over the next couple of years, he had children and began to help the Jedi Order police the Galaxy.

After the introduction of the Sith Order of Decreto, Nathan's life as a family man was almost torn asunder when his wife died. Despondent, he went to his honorary home of Novus Kamino Prime and remained there until the war came back to haunt him. Banding together with survivors just like him, he helped to form the Scourges of Those Bad Guy People and the Galactic Commonwealth.

Unfortunately, the Sith would eventually make Nathan lose his life, or so it seemed. Thanks to the help of loyal allies, Nathan was placed into cryostasis, to remain there until he was needed again by the Galaxy. Although he sporadically came out to help several different problems, Nathan remained in cryostasis until the Reaver War.

Helping to lead the Jedi to a temporary victory, he was able to save the remnants of the Fifth Republic, find new love, and protect his descendants. Unfortunately, Nathan died as a result of leading Sith Lord Darth Aemulus back to the light. But even in death, Nathan was useful, helping to lead his family to a brighter tomorrow.

Birth to Adoption
Nathan grew up in the Unknown Regions, and was immediately taught everything his mother could think of. She had 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 Nathan's grandfather, which 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 defended Luke and Nathan from him, but was fatally injured. With her dying breath, she asked 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. He was actually more of a hindrance than a help, and Palpatine sensed that he held even more power than Anakin did, so intended to use Nathan as the next host of his body.

Han, Leia, and Luke were able to prevent this, however, as Han had shot him in the back. He left his intentions for Nathan behind, as Anakin was closer to him, and attempted to put his spirit into the young Solo, but was intercepted by Empatojayos Brand, who was about to die anyways. Palpatine's spirit was finally put to rest and the Jedi were safe again.

During the period in which Luke Skywalker's body had been put into stasis by the Sith Lord Exar Kun, he helped Jacen save Luke's physical body from being destroyed by Exar Kun's creatures.

When Jaina, Anakin, and Jacen were kidnapped by Hethrir, he helped his adopted mother 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 wielded 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.

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 developed an infatuation for his "sister", Jaina.

Slave Seed
For a more in-depth version of this look at: Tales of the New Republic: Slave Seedfor ''

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 on the forest moon of Endor, 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. He and his captor went to meet up with another man who shared the same characteristics as the first on Bakura.

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.

Unfortunately, the people of Bakura had begun to think the two men were Ssi-Ruuvi spies and attacked the home they were stationed in. Nearby was the residence of the Thanas', so Malinza Thanas was watching from afar. The events afterwards would shape her thoughts on the Jedi and Republic for years to come.

After escaping the mob of Bakurans, Nathan sparred with both of the men and eventually killed them, wondering what they were...

Extragalactic Species and No Force-Sensitivity Don't Mix
For a more in-depth version of this look at: Tales of the New Jedi Order: Yuuzhan Vong Warfor '' "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.

This also led to a mutual respect between him and Tenel Ka. He once had had feelings for her, but she pointed out to him that his destiny was with Jaina, not her.

"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. 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.

He also established communications with the Chev and Chevin of Vinsoth to help with the Great River project of his uncle's. He even got their leader, Ephant Mon to come out of retirement.

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

For a more in-depth version of this look at: The Redemption of Korriban: A Tale of the New Jedi Orderfor ''

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 was attacked by mutated shyracks and Imon was killed. Kyle's group also fell under attack by mutated vornskrs and wampas, but they are able to escape into the tomb of Ajunta Pall. Nathan's group was also attacked by Mutatos and Sacul Vao, along with mutated wraids and tuk'ata. Jaina was stabbed by Sacul, Zossk and Raxe were knocked out trying to defend Jysella, while Nathan's vocal cords were almost completely cut off, and his lightsabers were destroyed. He barely had enough time to make a blind ghosting attempt.

He reached Kyle's group and explained what happened via the Force, since it would take some time for his vocal cords to heal. Hivrekh built a makeshift vocabulator for him, but Nathan&mdash;though he still used it&mdash;disliked it, because it made him sound like Darth Vader. The motley group proceeded to the caverns below to avoid a Yuuzhan Vong patrol.

On the way, the group discovered two beings of unidentifiable origin. The "master", Cornelius, told Nathan of his and San-Props'&mdash;the other being&mdash;species. He is a Korribanite and San-Props is an Original Sith, as in the original species! Cornelius led them into his species' hideout in the depths of the huge caves that are abundant on Korriban.

The group reached the main city where they were 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 went to the Council and learned 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 agreed to help the combined group in saving their homes, but not until Nathan could build some lightsabers to replace the ones destroyed by Mutatos.



They learned 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 sent Hivrekh and Orroz on a scouting mission to find out when the captured Jedi were to be sacrificed. He and the others sought out the cave and found the terentatek and killed 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 were to be sacrificed in two days, Nathan told the remaining Jedi that he was going to let himself get captured, and to have the Court of Yun-Coria "sentence" him. He knew of a loophole in their laws that would 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 was sent to the Court and made several nonsense claims, so that the other Jedi could rescue the captured ones. His "speech" was stopped by Mutatos, Sacul, their animals, and the captured Jedi, who had been brainwashed by Mutatos. Commander Hooley Krekk and senior creche-judge Eg'roeg Coris were killed in the skirmish and Nathan had to disable Jaina and the other Jedi. Hope came in the form of the combined Sith, Korribanite, and Massassi forces, who destroyed the Court's damutek and while Nathan was battling Mutatos, he was killed by his traitorous apprentice, Sacul.

Sacul attacked Nathan, as the combined forces took out all Yuuzhan Vong and mutated animal resistance. Nathan beheaded her and stopped the battle. All of the Jedi survived and promised to keep the secrets that they had 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.

The War Drags On
"May I pass?"

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

For a more in-depth version of this look at: Tales of the New Jedi Order: Yuuzhan Vong Warfor ''

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 accidentally 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 specter.

He and Zossk eventually killed the voxyn and warriors guarding the captured Jedi and helped to gain 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 leaving 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&mdash;she had been incapacitated by blorash jelly&mdash;Nathan carried him so that he 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 Myrkr and fled to Hapes.

After, he helped bring Jaina back to the light, because after the death of brother, Anakin, and the disappearance 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. With his loyal Shamed One allies, he stormed the Well of the World Brain and prophesied that a former enemy would lead them to greatness. Leaving Ganner behind to keep the Yuuzhan Vong at bay, he assisted Vergere and Jacen in their escape.

Shortly after, Nom Anor, who unknowingly had fulfilled Nathan's prophecy, took over his duties teaching the Shamed as the Prophet.

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

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

While Jacen and Vergere were leaving to Mon Calamari, he ghosted to the captured Yuuzhan Vong cruiser, Ksstarr 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.

He was captured by the Vong when his XJ lost power in a small skirmish above Raxus Prime. Luckily, he was able to escape and destroyed the cruiser he had been taken to before it could transport him to Coruscant to be sacrificed.



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
For a more in-depth version of this look at: Last of the Jedi: Nathaniel Kenobifor ''

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.

Nathan was told of the evacuation of Kamino and the love his father had found in a woman who looked exactly the same as his own: Abigaile Jade.

He was told of the founding of Novus Kamino Prime and the Jedi his grandfather had trained to defend them. The Ottiumigos Centrality intrigued him, as well as the rogue Yuuzhan Vong Commander who had attacked them: Hooley Krekk.

His grandfather's determination to destroy the Imperials matched his own fervor in destroying the Yuuzhan Vong's hold on the Galaxy. He watched as his grandfather lied to his grandmother, driving her to leave for Tatooine.

He watched the dead man's despair and his renewed spirit searching for a wife he had never wished to hurt. He watched as he was told&mdash;again&mdash;of a bad decision he had made to help the smugglers Maka Jeth and Duwingo.

He watched the Emperor and Darth Vader fight his descendant and witnessed his grandmother's death. He watched as they fled Wayland for parts unknown. He noticed that the Jedi were still there on Novus Kamino Prime and that his grandfather had made a prophecy concerning the colony's future. That they would be freed from adversity by his descendant, in other words Nathaniel Kenobi Solo.

Nathan watched as the holocron shut off and thought gleefully. Particularly about the group of sizable Jedi still left on the colony of Novus Kamino Prime. Seeing an opportunity to help strengthen 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

For a more in-depth version of this look at: Schism: A Tale of the New Jedi Orderfor ''

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 superior, Vlek Shai. 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 learned of this and went to Nathan's last known coordinates to warn him.

Nathan arrived in the Ottiumigos Centrality and found 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, Derran Karr, Kla, Olos Nah, Rozix, Tireal, Crash, Sneaky, and Flyboy, Nathan was able to escape Ottiumigos Prime, but unfortunately, Flyboy and Kla were killed.

Nathan then met his grandfather's old friend, Doc, and got an update on the Colonies' situation. He then proved 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. In this period of time, Nat-ahn had 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' 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&mdash;Pandraxon's daughter Wakdraxon&mdash;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 her 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, and the Colonies had already manufactured many anti-Yuuzhan Vong weapons beforehand, fearing that the Treaty of Novus Kamino Prime might be broken.



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 Ottiumigos Prime, he will lead an assault on the manufacturing world Kelakus.

The plans were drawn, the battles begun, the end in sight. The Yuuzhan Vong attacked Novus Kamino Prime, but thanks to Zossk and Brashus, they were easily defeated. Partial thanks was given to the fact that several Jedi had trained themselves to be ready for the Yuuzhan Vong to return. Sensing defeat, Supreme Commander Vlek Shai, jumped to the Kelakus system. Intent on causing as much destruction as possible.

The feint at Ottiumigos Prime was semi-successful, because Nat-ahn fled 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 followed the Potentium, the scared cries of his half-brother resonated through the Force, so Nathan accepted the challenge: winner take all!

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

Vlek Shai came into the fray and attacked the two Force-sensitives. Evenly matched, Vlek and Nat-ahn ganged up on Nathan. The two foes almost subdued him, but remembering the promise he had given Jaina, and the cries of Dal-tone, Nathan found all the willpower he needed and conquered 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 adopted 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. Or, that's what people wanted them to think...

The Battle of Coruscant
After the Battle of Novus Kamino Prime, Novus Kamino Prime had begun issuing scientists and soldiers to study everything Yuuzhan Vong. This led to better knowledge of their ships and they were able to receive weapons left behind on Ottiumigos Prime and train their soldiers on how to best them in battle. This led to the creation of the Amphistaff Legion, which specialized in killing them.

These troops proved very effective during the Battle of Coruscant, as they were a surprise to the Yuuzhan Vong they fought, seeing as they used their own weapons against them.

Nathan led them to the heart of Shimrra's fortress, along with Jaina, Jacen, and Luke. They fought the Slayers and Nathan held off most of them while Luke went for Shimrra.

He felt Jaina collapse in the Force as she pursued Onimi and realized she had been captured. He watched Jacen head after her and followed. The two brothers conquered the would-be conquerer and finished the battle.

But thanks to the treachery of Nom Anor, they weren't out of trouble yet. That was when he revealed that everything Nom Anor had done, had been something he already knew about. The portrayal of Yu'Shaa, the poisoning of Zonama Sekot, and the "betrayal" of his family on Shimrra's former escape vehicle. Knowing this, Nom Anor escaped and was presumed dead.

Post Yuuzhan Vong War: Naboo

For a more in-depth version of this look at: Tales of the New Jedi Order: Naboofor ''

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 separated from each other.

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

Jaina awoke to an even stranger 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 for treason, on the condition they help him find his wife.

Darth Pravus went back into his chambers and conversed with the Force ghost of Darth Maul. He told him everything was in order and was going to plan. Maul smiled and thanked the Sith for helping to bring about more glory to the name Sith.



On an espionage mission, Nathan found 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 spotted Jaina and attempted to bring her back into the light. She feigned it and stabbed him in the stomach! Leaving him for dead, she returned 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 managed 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."

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 by the Yuuzhan Vong.

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 resurrect it, but under a different name and purpose: Black Nova. They intended it to be 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 opportunity 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

For a more in-depth version of this look at: Tales of the New Jedi Order: Swarm Warfor ''



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 techniques from older Orders of the Jedi. Such as Force stasis, Psychometry, Battle Meditation, Force Storm, and the ability to use his lightsaber's energy to flow over him, making himself practically invulnerable. Unfortunately, this could only be used sparingly, as it caused severe scarring after a while. 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.

During the Qoribu incident, he stayed away from his wife and Zekk, as he didn't know how to deal with their present situation as Joiners.

He assisted in the Battles of Nickel One and Thyferra, but they were temporary annoyances to him, because he knew his wife was in danger.

While his wife and Zekk were trapped on Tenupe, he, Anakin, and Mariz got into their Stealth-Xs and went out to rescue them. 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.

The Dragon Slayers
For a more in-depth version of this look at: Tales of the New Jedi Order: I Really, Really Hate Droidsfor ''

On the Outer Rim world of POC3, a group of freedom fighters were desperate. Their world was slowly being taken over by the assassin droid HK-78 and his "subjects", the firewelder-droids, or "Dragons".

The resistance was called the The POC3 Dragon Slayers. They petitioned the Alliance for help and Jedi Masters Nathan and Jaina answered the plea.

They organized them better and brought along some old friends who would know how to deal with droids: the clonetroopers of Novus Kamino Prime.

The assassin droid had learned of his "family's" history and had decided to make his own mark&mdash;so he decided to follow in the path of the first droid to have the name HK...HK-01. He would lead the droids against the Galaxy and kill the Yuuzhan Vong for daring the deactivate them.

Luckily, Nathan, Jaina, the resistance, and the troopers were more than a match for him, deactivating him and restoring the firewelder-droids' memories back.

The native populace of POC-3 heralded them as heroes and they left back to Coruscant with the remains of HK-78. Better to keep one's enemies closer.

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 the Colonies for Mandalore. They were honored guests of the Mandalorians, 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 in diplomacy.

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

In the confusion, Nathan lost his lightsabers and all he had left was his malfunctioning blaster, a result of not repairing it.

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

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

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

Nathan and Jaina managed to deal with most of them, including the capture of a Force-sensitive Togorian Mandalorian. Her name was Jaki Grawn. 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 succeeded 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 later prove useful to the Galactic Commonwealth in the Battle of Ruusan.

Corellian Insurrection: Betrayal
"If you must..."

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

For a more in-depth version of this look at: Tales of the New Jedi Order: Corellian Insurrection & Other Storiesfor ''



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-sensitive 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.

Corellian Insurrection: Bloodlines
Nathan continued to work for the Jedi, often helping improve Jacen's image in the Order.

When Ben Skywalker was helping to disrupt a riot, he, Anakin, and Mariz joined.

Curious as to how an earlier bombing had occurred, he and his children went into the criminal underworld, seeking the information that could help end all of the anti-Corellian/Coruscanti movements.

He found that a Gotal crimelord had instigated it, since a major business rival of his, Corellian incidentally, had been located in the vicinity of the blast.

Nathan chased him and cornered him next to one of the gigantic craters created during the Yuuzhan Vong War. Rather than admit his guilt, the crimelord jumped, only to find out that during the time it has taken for Nathan to catch up to him, had given his pursuer the chance to localize his genetic code and ghost him to an Alliance cell.

Even Nathan grew disturbed by Jacen's behavior, so he would often conceal himself and follow his adopted brother, he witnessed the flowwalk to the Raid on the Jedi Temple and found that Jacen was trying to justify his role as a future Sith Lord.

Smiling, he left him alone, but agreed during a conversation with Jaina to keep him under his very attentive eye.

Corellian Insurrection: Tempest


Nathan was granted the title of Blademaster for the Coruscant Academy after showing Master Skywalker that he had learned every single known form of lightsaber combat. He helped to construct a training pad for recruits and for the Masters.

He trained Ben Skywalker before his "duel" with his father. Without even moving, he disarmed Ben in their practice battle. After Ben had fought Luke, Nathan asked for a chance to fight him. Luke accepted. Nathan said he'd go easy on his elder, saying he'd only use one lightsaber.

"They were going so fast, even I could not view the whole thing"

- Mara commenting on the "fight".

Nathan and Luke were about evenly-matched. But Nathan noted that Luke seemed to be holding back, so he used some of his famous taunting. He told Luke of how he had become a failure. How he was worthless, how if he had any worth, he would have saved Lumiya years ago.

Luke, angered after a while, attacked with such a fury and rage, even Mara was getting scared. Nathan had employed his favorite weapon&mdash;the Dun Möch&mdash;to full effect. Luke was getting careless and soon found himself also severed from his blade.

Luke smiled and thanked Nathan for helping him realize it wasn't his fault for how things were going and that he needed to find Lumiya before anything else could happen.

When he saw Tenel and Allana in terrible trouble in a vision, he raced against time to the Hapes Cluster. He killed the assassins, who were hired by the Corellians should Aurra Sing fail, and helped the Queen Mother and Allana escape.

Nathan later joined up with Jacen and the GAG Star Destroyer Anakin Solo, so that he could protect Tenel and Allana better. He protected them against Aurra Sing again and helped to make her flee.

Corellian Insurrection: Exile
After these events, Nathan and his children went to the planet Jrack. Jrack was the the only other source of meleenium&mdash;an element used in to make durasteel&mdash;besides Af'El. Corellian Separatists were sent to gain Jrack's succession from the Galactic Alliance and to get a contract working to get the meleenium. Nathan was able to stop this when he found out that they were planning to take it anyways.

Nathan and his children would then join up with Jaina, Jagged Fel, and Zekk to bring down the crazed Sith Alema Rar. He grew extremely jealous of the fact that the other two men would dare have feelings for his wife, especially since she was married to him still.

Their journey led them to the Errant Venture and into a minor conflict with Alema and joined Jacen in the stalemate at the Gilatter VIII.

Corellian Insurrection: Sacrifice
Nathan became increasingly worried about Jacen's behavior. He even began to wonder if he had been wrong about what Jacen intended to do. He's relationship with his wife was faltering because of this and his children were becoming distant to him. That's was when he heard of the call for all Mandalorians to return to Mandalore.

Intrigued, and suspicious at what Fett planned to do, Nathan talked with Jaina, which ended up being more of an argument, as she was much more temperamental these days. She reluctantly agreed to let him, Mariz, and Anakin go to Mandalore. Nathan hoped to spy on them and figure out what exactly they were planning to do.

When he arrived and announced his intentions, he actually made Boba Fett chuckle.

"Very funny, Jedi. Now leave."

- Boba Fett

"No joke, Mand'alor. Your call said for all Mandalorians to come and here I am. Ta-da."

- Nathan

Perplexed at this development, Boba asked why he thought he could become a Mandalorian. Nathan replied that since he had inherited his grandmother's Fett surname, he was entitled to be a Mandalorian. He also said that the rules about joining up were a little vague anyways.

Convinced, Boba allowed him to become a member of the "Mandalorian council" he had formed at the local bar. Nathan added insight into how Jacen thought and how the Galactic Alliance would be the least of their worries if the Sith returned. He was granted the title of Jetiise Vod Be Gra'tua Bal Ijaa&mdash;Jedi brother of vengeance and honor in Basic.&mdash;by his fellows and he and his children were given Mandalorian armor. He also became quite fluent in Mando'a at this time.

He oversaw the treaty between the Mandalorians and Verpine and told Fett that he would accompany them to Roche and eventually Murkhana, but he would not be party to a genocide. Fett assured him that there would be no such thing.

Before that could occur, however, Mara Jade Skywalker was murdered and Nathan went to Hapes for the funeral service, taking Mariz and Anakin with him. There he met Jaina and his other son and told her that he was unsure of what to do next. She said the only thing they could do was to kill the ones responsible: Lumiya and Alema. With Lumiya dead, Alema was the only one left. But Nathan and Ben both had a pretty good idea who the real killer was: Jacen Solo, joint Chief of State with Cha Niathal. They agreed to kill him if he went too far.

Corellian Insurrection: Inferno
"With all my power...I couldn't save them! Why couldn't I save them?"

- Nathan commenting on the deaths of the younglings on Ossus

Attending Mara Jade Skywalker's funeral in place of Jaina, Jag, and Zekk, Nathan was able to help thwart the Galactic Alliance Guard's attempt to capture his adopted parents. This soon earned him a spot on Jacen's future most wanted board, especially since he refused to acknowledge Jacen at the funeral, and left when Jacen made his abrupt arrival halfway through the service.

Returning to Ossus, where he reunited with the team in charge of tracking down Alema. However, a GAG guard who had formerly been controlled by him when he had initially joined Jacen,, had come to Ossus on behalf of his real master. Growing increasingly annoyed by Jacen's activities of late, he forcibly "told" Salle that he would never give up his lightsaber to them and would instead undermine their authority in any way possible.

In response to this, Salle told several of his troopers to follow Nathan wherever he went, making sure he wasn't doing anything that would destroy their position on Ossus. However, instead of the fight they had figured would inevitably occur, they watched in awe as Nathan only remained his quarters, meditating as if they held no meaning to him whatsoever. Nathan, meanwhile, was using the time they so graciously gave him to lockdown on each of the Academy's young students, preparing to ghost them out at the first sign of trouble.

On the night of the invasion of Ossus, Nathan was in his room, meditating, when he felt a disturbance in the Force. Figuring it was the GAG troopers about to strike, he began to seek out the students, but, to his horror, he found them blocked off from him by ysalamir. (Although Nathan himself was immune from the ysalamir's power, he couldn't sense things in the Force where they were located unless he was there as well.) Fearing the worst, Nathan left his quarters, and drained the life from his "captors."

Racing to find the younglings, he felt the deaths of the Jedi Knights who were being taken down covertly by the GAG. Reaching for his comlink, he was about to wake Jaina up when he felt her presence fighting off the effects of coma gas. Reassured by her that she was alright and that the GAG had taken the younglings as hostages, he simply walked into the room where they had been taken to and stared down Salle.

Noting that Jaina, Jag, and Zekk were okay and ready to attack on a moment's notice, Nathan told Salle to let the younglings go. When Salle refused, Nathan reached out and charred the life out of him and his subordinates in the room. With their leader gone, the rest of the GAG guards fell easy to prey to the Jedi, but Nathan, after the fight was over, began to weep, because he had been unable to save the majority of the Jedi stationed there, including Master Kam Solusar.

Unfortunately for Nathan's feelings, the war would not let up, and he joined Jaina and the others to meet Luke Skywalker on Kashyyyk. Asking to be the one to go and kill Jacen, Nathan was furious when Luke still felt that his nephew couldn't have turned to the dark side and was simply making bad decisions. To add insult to injury, he refused Nathan's request to attack Jacen, as he felt Nathan was the one in danger of falling to the dark side.

Nathan begrudgingly accepted his uncle's advice and accompanied Jaina and Luke in a StealthX attack on the Anakin Solo. Unfortunately, a stray shot from Jaina's StealthX seemingly killed Luke in an explosion planned by Jacen. Furious at the death of his adopted uncle, Nathan was about to ghost onto the bridge of the Anakin Solo when he felt a voice warning him from doing such. Figuring Jacen would have used a more suggestive way of making him back off, he began to think that Luke was warning him from beyond the grave.

Unknown to Nathan, Luke had faked his death, and had boarded the Anakin Solo and was attacking Jacen Solo, who had kidnapped Ben. Luke, fearing for his son's growing addiction to the dark, left the Anakin Solo and returned to the Jedi, and an astonished Nathan. Realizing that he wasn't as powerful as he had thought before, Nathan rated himself as only a quarter of the Grand Master in sheer power to his wife.

Not wanting to join the Confederation, Nathan suggested that the Jedi make up their own side. In this part, he was joined by fellows Ada Karr, Ichi Go, Renton Thur'ston, and Zossk Sadeet. After a group consensus was made, Luke Skywalker decided to vote in favor of Nathan's decision and join neither the Alliance or Confederation.

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

For a more in-depth version of this look at: Tales of the New Jedi Order: The Sith Crusadefor ''



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 had been personally slain by Darth Micail.

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

Taking the initiative, he went to Dathomir, using only a broken-down, almost defunct StealthX to get there. He came with one and only one purpose in mind: to find his wife's body.

No Sith Knight stationed on Dathomir could stop him in his almost mindless charge. (They weren't really many there, as most of them were helping Abeonis elsewhere.) He came across the Dathomiri prison where he saw both the Nightsisters and Singing Mountain Clan interned there. Soon, it seemed to him, that finding Jaina's body was both pointless and irrelevant. Hadn't she known how to become one with the Force? He'd been a fool.

Using his knowledge of slicing computers&mdash;not one of his better known traits&mdash;he hacked into the prison mainframe and was able to release the "witches". They joined up with him and, after he saw Jaina's Force ghost instructing him to keep his family on Novus Kamino Prime, he knew that the Sith must be stopped.

Battle of Novus Kamino Prime


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 Dathomiri witches, and the last of the clonetroopers.

The past few years had been hard on him, but this year had been the one that had broken the bantha's back. Almost losing the very core of his being, Nathan tried to gain an advantage, so he ghosted onboard the Sith's flagship, hoping to kill Micail for killing his wife. Even though he had almost snapped, Nathan tried, in vain, to convert Micail back to the light, something few ever thought he was capable of doing, considering his views on the Force. He failed, but vowed to destroy Micail, even if he had to renounce everything he was, which some noted as Nathan being more like Nathan.

The next few years weren't getting any better for Nathan, but, with the help of some valued friends, he started a group that would strike fear in the heart of the Sith: the Scourges of Those Bad Guy People. They were named when a young apprentice had forgotten the name of the organization that wanted to wipe them out of the Galaxy, which Nathan found amusing, so he decided to christen the new group of renegades with that name.

They fought many a battle and skirmish against the Sith, and, eventually, they garnered support from many sources. The biggest boon was the Mandalorians who had come under the leadership of an old friend: Jaki Grawn. Many soldiers and mercenaries joined because Nathan's group was the only one doing anything about the Sith, with the Galactic Alliance mired in apathy and inner problems. The Scourges of Those Bad Guy People soon found themselves at the mercy of the Sith, however, while they were attempting to free Almania...

Almanian Angst
Over the years, Nathan became a figure of legend and fear to the Sith, who, in private conversation, gave him the moniker Scourge of Decreto. He also became known as a psychological strategist, which made the Sith Admirals and Commanders who were sent to find him apprehensive, because no one knew what he would do in a battle to gain victory. Nowhere was this seen more than the world of Almania.

Nathan had gone to Almania to destroy a Sith taskforce and succeeded. The native populace of Almania, eager to please their saviors, allowed them to use Pydyr as their base of operations. This would prove to be their undoing, as the Sith soon found out, thanks to a Fallanassi informant, and Abeonis ordered a fleet to be sent under his command to end the menace of Nathan.

Nathan, meanwhile had gone to the Fallanassi to get them to work more actively against the Sith. Their leader, Folapii, said that Nathan had no business being there and that the Sith could come and lose against his people. Nathan sarcastically replied:

"Can I quote you on that?"

- Nathan



The Sith soon arrived, with Abeonis in the lead with his ship The Soiyo, and both sides agreed to talk aboard the Sith flagship. The talks proved inconclusive and the battle began.

Meanwhile, the Fallanassi natives had grown tired of Folapii's stagnant rule, and ousted him a bloodless revolt. They secretly talked with Nathan and he told them to await for his orders to engage. They got them when the Scourges of Those Bad Guy People began to suffer tremendous losses, so Nathan gave them the order to attack, along with another hidden fleet of Galactic Alliance vessels.

In the end, however, the battle proved to be more of a stalemate, with both sides acknowledging the futility of fighting, Nathan's fleet left and Almania and Pydyr were evacuated before the Sith could get to them.

Galactic Commonwealth
For a more in-depth version of this look at: Tales of the Galactic Commonwealth: Ruusanfor ''

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 was suspected that since Jacen Solo had disappeared, Tenel and Nathan may have begun a relationship, but no biological offspring have ever been recorded, so the validity of this remains open to debate.

During this timeframe, Nathan and several other Jedi members of the Commonwealth were awarded with the title of Jedi Over-Master. This meant that Nathan was responsible for helping a planet's economy, infrastructure, and the like. Many just said he wanted the title to annoy people who thought he had more sway in the government than was needed, which could have been a plausible assumption. It is known, however, that he treated the job like anything else and fulfilled his duties to the best of his abilities.

The planet he asked for was Hapes, and, through a long and hard voting process, got what he wanted, although he alienated the Hapan nobles by doing so. Unknowingly, they were doing exactly as he had intended: plotting to kill Tenel Ka and himself, so he sent them to prison as soon as they attempted to assassinate the Queen Mother. This helped to weed out the bad nobles and to keep the ones Tenel and he could trust.

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 Undead Live
For a more in-depth version of this look at: Tales of the Galactic Commonwealth: Day-Walkerfor ''

Following the debacle at Hutt Space, the Commonwealth began hearing cries of help throughout resistance cells that were supposed to keep quiet until the Commonwealth could act to liberate them. All of the messages were the same: UNKNOWN MALE, TALL AND WRAPPED IN A CLOAK. ALSO HAS LARGE TEETH, LOOKED LIKE AN ANZA&mdash;ARRRGGGHHH!!!

Baffled, the Commonwealth sent Jedi Masters Zossk Sadeet, Raynar Thul, and Zeferi to investigate. Two days later, Zeferi returned to Hapes' Jedi Temple with the bodies of Zossk and Raynar, the victims of severe loss of blood. Zeferi was barely able to escape with her life, but even she could give very little information on their attacker, in fact, the only new information she brought was that there was a lack of bodies at the building.

Nathan then walked into the room saying he may have figured out who the attacker really was. He told of how, years ago in the Battle of Coruscant, he had served along a man who shunned the light and was very similar to the descriptions given. The man's name was Faust, and he was a Rutsenafo, not an Anzati.

Most people in the room laughed at him, saying that all those stories about vampire races were falsified and the Nathan needed to get back to his memory pills before all was lost. Angered, he lashed out at them with words that would have sent the bravest, most fearless Knight to the floor.

"Falsified, eh? You think the reports were falsified? I'll tell you who helped "falsify" those reports. The teachers and scientists of this Galaxy who only accept what they know for truth and discourage the advancement of knowledge. If Master Skywalker had listened to people like you a long time ago, we never would have found Zonama Sekot, and the Galaxy would be under the control of the Yuuzhan Vong. I may be a senile, old has-been, but I know what is and what isn't. I haven't spent seventy-eight years of my life in stupidity. I know they exist and anyone who wishes to argue otherwise can see themselves out the nearest airlock!"

- Nathan to the doubters on Rutsenafos

Tenel Ka then entered the Temple's hangar bay to quiet him down. She admonished him for losing his temper.

"They're only mere children compared to us, Nathan. We have to step down a level to make them learn. I believe you, because I have heard of how this Faust was integral in defeating the Vong. Please calm down and wait for the medics to analyze the bodies."

- Tenel trying the calm Nathan down.

Nathan merely grunted in reply and left for his quarters. He meditated to calm himself and began using the Force to channel his ability to astrally project himself to one of the worlds under "siege" from the Rutsenafo, Nirauan. Since it was very near the Unknown Regions, the location of the Rutsenafo's homeworld.

In his astral travels, he went to the Commonwealth's resistances' headquarters on the planet, and saw that it was ablaze. Curious, he went into the building. He saw a young Kreevaaki male lying on the floor. He searched the being's health and noticed the man was almost a void in the Force.

Then Nathan heard a voice chanting in the background. He recognized some of the words, but couldn't translate any of them. The voice finished the chant and, to Nathan's horror, the Kreevaaki male stood up, except, there was no signs of life in him, he was a zombie.

The man turned to where Nathan's astral form was and laughed. Nathan was shocked, as very few Jedi could even tell he was there in his astral form. Nathan got a glimpse of the man's face and fled back to his body, which was safe at Hapes. He could have sworn it was Faust, but doubt remained in his mind. Why would Faust be helping the Sith? He had always been a staunch supporter of the Alliance and Jedi from what he had seen fifty years ago. Then again, fifty years was a very long time, and anything was possible.

With that realization, Nathan's train of thought was interrupted by his children walking into his room. They had talked amongst each other before coming and had agreed to believe what their father had said, and also had agreed to accompany him, as they knew he would leave at the first chance he got to prove he was right. Touched, Nathan laughed and told them to get the ship prepped for launch. They were going to follow the man across the Galaxy if they had to.

Unfortunately, that trail led them to the capital of the Sith Empire: Korriban. Disguising themselves as smugglers, they were able to enter Korriban without any problems. Though there were Sith Knights stationed throughout the planet, Nathan was able to mask their Force-sensitivity. They also attacked and knocked out four Sith Knights for their uniforms.

Nathan stopped them as they were away from the planet's spaceport, he had sensed something very similar to the man he had seen on Nirauan. Carefully, they searched the area, until Nathan heard a yell from one of the Korribanite slaves nearby. Pretending to be one of the many Knights, they went to the source of the disturbance.

Nathan's fears were confirmed, the man was a Rutsenafo, but, yet, he was different somehow. The figure moved into the shadows, away from the Jedi.

"Come out, dog! Show yourself."

- Nathan to the Rutsenafo

"I think you'll excuse me from coming out just yet, old man. Oh, the disguise really isn't you, Nathan."

- The Rutsenafo

"Then it was you I saw on Nirauan. Prepare to die, Sithspawn!"

- Nathan

The two struggled in the darkness, Nathan couldn't ignite his lightsabers, because he knew it would be a dead giveaway if anyone saw him. Not many lightsaber wielders had black and white crystals giving them their color.

The Rutsenafo flared his teeth and Nathan went back into the light just in time. There was a pause where both men gathered there strength.

"Still reckless, as always, old man. I remember you from Coruscant, not Nirauan."

- The Rutsenafo

"Faust? Then I was right again. Why, old friend? Why are you helping, Abeonis?"

- Nathan

"Well, if you'd have let me explain myself earlier, I would have told you that it wasn't me. It was another Rutsenafo named Crie Krobos. He's been working for the Sith ever since they beat you at Coruscant. He's been assigned the task of destroying every Commonwealth cell from this side of the Galaxy to the next. I'm here to stop him before anymore harm comes to the good guys."

- Faust

While Nathan pondered this, his children finally came to help him, but he told them to wait.

"Then if what you tell me is true, and you're not doing this for any money at all&mdash;which is odd for you&mdash;this man could also have been taking away the corpses from the kills and using them to create his own personal army!"

- Nathan

Faust chuckled and replied:

"Hardly, this is no ordinary Rutsenafo we're dealing with. He had a genetic abnormality which allows him to withstand the effects of daylight for a very long time. This is what makes him a much more effective killer. Those people you saw him turning into zombies aren't for a personal army, in a manner of speaking, but for testing. He plans to introduce this gene to my entire race, so that we can conquer the Galaxy without fears of dying. He's a madman who must be stopped."

- Faust

"Very well, Faust. Then our goals are one and the same. Let's work together on this, so that we can accomplish it. I fear that if we part, then all will be for naught."

- Nathan

"You really are getting senile, aren't you. I mean, you never used to talk like this. Sheesh, oh well. I guess we should work together. It'll be just like old times."

- Faust

The two men joined forces and they infiltrated the Sith palace. Watching from a secret hideout constructed by Abeonis for his men to watch for anything unusual. The "anything unusuals" had turned the tables and beaten the watchmen behind Abeonis' back.

Abeonis had a visitor, the Rutsenafo Nathan had seen on Nirauan: Crie Krobos. The two were talking about Krobos' recent success at Nirauan.

"I trust it was very...successful, my friend."

- Abeonis

"Quite, my Lord. The Commonwealth is helpless before our might."

- Crie

"What of the bodies?"

- Abeonis

"They have been well...taken care of, let us say."

- Crie

Abeonis smiled and began laughing. He then spoke conspiratorially to Krobos: "Do you think we should reveal ourselves now, my friend?"

- Abeonis

"Yes. Let's."

- Krobos

"Congratulations, Master Nathaniel, Masters Kenobi Solo, oh, and this must be Faust. You have fared far better than any other fool before you. Not many have been able to come into my chambers in such a way. But, now I'm afraid that you must die. It's nothing personal."

- Abeonis

The duo lashed out at Nathan, his children, and Faust. Crashing out of the door to Abeonis' office came seven highly-trained Sith Knights. Nathan fought Abeonis, while his children fought the Knights, and Faust brought Krobos into the shadows.

Nathan and Abeonis began to talk to one another while battling, each attempting to use persuasion on the other to make them fail somehow.

"Abeonis, you're a kriffin' fool."

- Nathan

"Oh, really? How so?"

- Abeonis

"Because your little vampire buddy is using you for his own needs."

- Nathan

"Is that so? It wouldn't be the first time someone dared to trick me. That includes you!"

- Abeonis

With that, Abeonis kicked Nathan into the wall, while Faust managed to claw Krobos back into the darkness.

"The I guess the joke'll be on you, buddy. When there's over thirty billion of him coming for your throat in broad daylight."

- Nathan

Abeonis stopped as he pondered Nathan's words. Could he really have been so foolish as to let the Rutsenafo betray him? Could his enemy really be trying to help him?

"Don't listen to him, Dark Lord. He's using some Force power you can't overcom&mdash;"

- Crie

"Ah, shut up, you genetic freak!"

- Faust

"You would dare say the Dark Lord of the Decreton Empire could be overcome by a mere Force power! You will not live to see the end of this day, cretin."

- Abeonis

Realizing that he had no more allies in the room, Krobos reached into his pouch and dropped a grenade, except instead of incinerating everyone, it had caused the room to turn into a black void. Faust attempted to stop him, but Krobos sent him flying with Abeonis' desk before he could reach him.

Nathan and Abeonis then used the Force to sweep away the murky residue from the grenade so that they could see. The two looked at each other with glares that could have ignited a supernova a thousand times over. Abeonis extended his hand to Nathan and said that he would allow them to leave this one time for their help. He also informed them that he would help only if Krobos was on a world in the Empire.

"Thanks for nothing."

- Nathan

Nathan, his children, and Faust left Korriban and debated their next course of action. Mariz and Jacen wanted to go back to the Commonwealth for reinforcements, while Faust and Anakin wanted to go to Tianascalve immediately, while Nathan was patiently waiting for one to win him over, which was a very odd thing for him to do.

Faust said that if they didn't go now, then Krobos would have already started his experimentation on the beings he had captured and Anakin insisted that they could take anything the Rutsenafo threw at them because they all knew how to use the Force to manipulate the light. Mariz and Jacen argued that they couldn't take on an entire race, and they needed Commonwealth, or maybe even Sith help to win the coming mission.

That was the final straw for Nathan. No one was going to suggest working with the Sith as an alternative for as long as he was in command. They were going to the Rutsenafo all gun's blazing.

Slipping into the planet during noon&mdash;a very rare occurance on the planet&mdash;they landed near the planet's only spaceport. (Faust was wearing a heavy cloak to prevent the sunlight from harming him.) There they met the leaders of a mining corporation. They had come there with specific orders from Abeonis to search the world for any raw materials. Growing suspicious, Nathan checked the Force-sensitivity of each man, but found that his senses had been numbed by the heavy concentration of dark side energies on the planet.

A holler arose from the surrounding valleys and plains. Upon further investigation, the source of the yelps and screams came from a large group of reanimated skeletons, or the Skatons.

"Did I forget to mention he's a Cihl?"

- Faust

Anakin, Jacen, and Mariz entered a Force meld and brought their thoughts to one purpose: causing a mini-earthquake to take down a significant portion of the Skatons.

Nathan and Faust meanwhile were making sure the miners were prepared for the assault. The leader of the miners, a Makurth, then took off his uniform and revealed the uniform of a Sith Knight. The rest followed suit, showing that there were five more Knights and eight Sith Troopers.

The leader spoke:

"My Lord sends his thanks and his embarrassment. We didn't know where the planet in question was, so we followed you here. We are here to help you in anyway possible."

- The Makurth

"Figures he'd wait till someone did his dirty work for him. Fine then, the Troopers will follow my children, while the Knights are with Faust and I. We're going to find this freak and make sure he stays dead."

- Nathan

One of the Troopers said something to the other, which caused the leader to strike him with his hand.

"What was that all about?"

- Faust

"Nothing that concerns you, vampire."

- The Makurth

"Actually, it does. And if I don't get some answers soon, you can see what a Rutsenafo can do when he's angry"

- Faust

Angered, the leader explained that they had been given orders to perform a Base Delta Zero on the planet if they failed in their task.

Nathan then asked how they were going to perform that feat, when the leader further clarified that The Soiyo was there to enact it.

"Kriff."

- Nathan

Mariz, Jacen, and Anakin were finally able to create the mini-earthquake, sending many Skatons to the depths of Tianascalve. But a large portion still remained. Nathan ignited his lightsabers and the others followed suit.

For an hour, the group managed to hold off seemingly endless droves of Skatons, then the Tianascalve zombies came to reinforce the Skatons. Getting really annoyed, Nathan finally said, Enough! and ghosted the majority of the Sithspawn into space, where they fell back into the atmosphere and were incinerated on impact.

The few who were left retreated back into the catacombs and caverns carved by the planet's inhabitants.

The Jedi and Sith regrouped and counted their losses. Nathan, Mariz, and Anakin had suffered from minor wounds. Faust had accidentally been exposed to sunlight and had been scarred, but was recovering. One Sith Knight had succumbed to his injuries and four of the Troopers had died.

During the battle, Nathan had been trying to hone onto Krobos' location. He had found that it was only a half hour walk from where they were. The Makurth expressed his fears that the Rutsenafo would come out, as it was nearing night on Tianascalve. Faust said that most of his people were against the madman's plans, but would do nothing to stop him, or even aid them against him, so they had no reinforcements coming except The Soiyo, which was going to blast them into oblivion as soon as it showed up. Jacen then stated that the more time they wasted talking, the more closer Krobos was getting to perfect his experiments, so they agreed to march on.

With a couple of minutes to spare, they reached his complex and charged into the facility. What they saw horrified them: hundreds of Commonwealth spies and enlisted men were slowly dying and were being subjected to Krobos' "treatments".

The "doctor" himself entered the room and told them that it was foolish to come here. He unleashed the Skatons, Tianascalve zombies, and Rutsenafo loyal to him at the attackers. The group was able to finish them off and raced after Krobos through his harem. (Besides experimenting on his own people and others, he intended to get his rare gene into his species' genetic code the old fashioned way.)

At the end of his rope, Krobos was cornered in his harem. He demanded that he be left alive. Faust stepped forward and declared that the only way he could get out alive was to duel with him.

Faust stood on one side of the room, while Krobos glared at the other. For a long time, the two just stood there, but Krobos made the first move and found himself on the ground, with Faust's knee in his face. Krobos recovered and pushed Faust off, he began to use his Rutsenafo powers to make the women in his harem to follow his every rule, but found himself blocked by a stronger presence, that of Nathan's.

"Didn't your mother ever tell you not to cheat?"

- Nathan

At the brink of insanity, Krobos unleashed his trump card: the zombies of Zossk Sadeet and Raynar Thul. The two had been following Nathan ever since he'd left the Commonwealth. If they hadn't of kept comm silence and reported to the Commonwealth, then they would have known that the duo's bodies had disappeared.

"Farewell, Jedi."

- Krobos

With his two new creations under his command, the Jedi and Sith strike team began to falter. Another Sith Knight and Trooper lost their lives to the cause.

The Makurth's comlink buzzed and ran a schematic: The Soiyo was there to finish the job. Having no choice, Faust decided to use his species' most deadly power: Force Depletion. Instantaneously, both Zossk and Raynar fell to the floor, rid of the Rutsenafo's control. Faust began to focus his power towards Krobos, but was about to be hit with the madman's own version of Stagnate. Luckily, Nathan was able to get Faust out of the way with his ghosting power.

"I have had enough!"

- Nathan

With those last words, Nathan gathered up the growing rage and anger throughout the room and hurled it towards Krobos in the form of Electric Judgment. The impact almost killed the man outright, but he was an old Rutsenafo, older than Faust, and he could survive such things. Taking advantage, Nathan ignited his lightsabers and cut Krobos' heart out, effectively ending the madman's short reign as leader of the Rutsenafo.

"Comm your leader and tell him to get the kriff away."

- Nathan to the Makurth

"Did you truly think it going to be that easy?"

- The Makurth

"Typical Sith, all talk and nothing to back it up with."

- Nathan

"Forgive me for bringing this up at a time like this, but it seems our host has decided to go into cloning as well."

- Faust

"Dad! Tenel's here and she's brought the First Fleet and the Mandalorians to help us out. She just commed me."

- Jacen

"Then those big booms I've been hearing in the background are their artillery. Ha-ha! Today is a good day for battle indeed! You three take care of the Knights, while Faust and I get rid of the clones."

- Nathan

Nathan's children initiated their battlemeld again and were quick to slice the life out of the remaining Troopers and another Sith Knight. Nathan and Faust continued into Krobos' private chambers, which led to a secret passageway to the cloning room.

"How'd you know he had clones?"

- Nathan

"I know his type. Their cowards who pretend to be the big, bad leaders until it comes to dying. I wouldn't be surprised if he pulled a Palpatine and had a lot more than needed."

- Faust

"Kriff."

- Nathan

The cloning chamber was indeed filled with the remnants of Krobos' machinations. On first count there were over thirty clones and three on their way. Faust began to smash the equipment supporting the clones' life cycles, when Nathan shouted:

"Wait!"

- Nathan

"What? What?"

- Faust

"This is the part of the show where we're supposed to discuss how it's morally wrong to kill them and deal with our inner demons...okay, I'm through. It's clobbering time!"

- Nathan

No clone escaped their notice, all died that day on Rutsenafo, with no chance of return for either, for Nathan had destroyed every one of the datapads holding Krobos' genetic code.

"Well, there's natural selection for you, Faust."

- Nathan

Faust didn't answer, he had turned his back to Nathan. Nathan asked him what was wrong.

"Nothing, it's just, well, I'm done. He's dead. I was wondering what to do next."

- Faust

"Well, for one, you could teach me that tricky little power of yours, it might come in handy sometime. Or you could join the Commonwealth, you never know when we might need a mercenary of your caliber."

- Nathan

Faust smiled and replied:

"I don't know about the Force power, but I think I might be able to fulfill that last request."

- Faust

Mariz had called Nathan and announced that all the Knights on the surface were dead and the Rutsenafo who were involved with Krobos were eliminated. She also said that The Soiyo had fled the battle after hearing of the death of Krobos and the destruction of her ground forces, not to mention the beating it had received from the First Fleet.

The Commonwealth was able to relieve them from the planet and brought them home. The Rutsenafo remained, as always, on the planet of their birth, awaiting a day for someone to replace Krobos. Faust agreed to help the Commonwealth, but reminded them that he was still a mercenary for hire.

Nathan and his children returned to Hapes with a renewing of spirit, but joined the Commonwealth in mourning Zossk and Raynar.

The Search for Jacen Solo
For a more in-depth version of this look at: Tales of the Galactic Commonwealth: The Search For Jacen Solofor ''



Sometime during the Sith Crusade, former Jedi Master Jacen Solo joined Abeonis' Sith, because of the influence of Darth Adsec. 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 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. Except that it had died during the Second Corellian Insurrection, so Nathan decided that Jacen just wanted to be somewhere "familiar" again. Where better to hide from your enemies, than to be right under their feet?

Nathan;s group trekked into the undercities. (Before the Yuuzhan Vong War the planet's natural inhabitants were tough to destroy, 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's final resting place, 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 Jacen would be placed under attack by enemies. More specifically, ones wielding 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 immediately 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 them in the World Brain's final resting place, so that they could stop his attacks on their people. He was going to defend his friend's memories and had already foreseen 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 warriors 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 Jacen. 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 Yuuzhan Vong's best option would be to leave to another planet, as the Sith would never rest until they were dead on Coruscant.

Ghosting them to his ship, Who's Next&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!
For a more in-depth version of this look at: Tales of the Galactic Commonwealth: Family Historyfor ''

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 murderer of its father. That child was named Dal-tone Mandrex, his 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 dozens of Herglic warriors. 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 perceive 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. Fortunately, 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 Orroz and Valin Horn 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, Orroz and Valin 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 rendezvoused 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 Governor'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 broken 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 forty 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 grandfather'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 morale 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 really should have 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 were captured by the Sith Lord Darth Krayt on his flagship in 120 ABY, 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 foreseen 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 "incarceration" 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.

Getting bored during his "incarceration", Nathan formed a group of people he knew he could trust to keep the Galaxy safe while he waited for the day he could leave his prison. The Avenger's Knights were formed by an old friend named Somcis. He was the first Nonpareil Knight of the Secret Conversations with the Faraway and was responsible for safeguarding the Republic and the Jedi from being taken over again by the Sith.

During the Dark Wars, he was known to have frequented Imbel Kenobi Solo's presence, as she had been flirting with the idea to sell the Jedi to the "barbarians" of the Udlibixus Galaxy.

He also was instrumental in resolving the Nathanite issue, appearing to them and instructing them to help repair the damages they had rendered.

Contradictions Are My Specialty
In the year 1,113 ABY, Nathan felt a disturbance in the Force, a descendant of his was about to make a very important decision in his life, and the Jedi who had passed on had sent Nathan's own son to prevent him from turning to the dark side. Nathan, however, saw the opportunity this presented and persuaded his descendant, Crisan Kenobi Solo&mdash;later Darth Verraeter&mdash;to join the dark side.

Deducing that Verraeter would slip up enough so that he would return to the light&mdash;not to mention prevent future Kenobi Solos from making his choice&mdash;Nathan instructed the Avenger's Knights to help behind the scenes in any way they could. Verraeter eventually redeemed himself and there was only one other Kenobi Solo to fall to the dark side following these events.

Unfortunately, though, Nathan and the Knights would have to face a menace so sinister, it had waited hundreds of years for the day it could return to decimate the Galaxy. Apparently around the same time as Nathan had formed the Avenger's Knights, another man had created the Traitorous Ones, the polar opposite of the ideals held by Nathan.

The group had aided and abetted people who were against his plans and had tipped off the Eriadu Confederation and Jedi about Verraeter's intentions for them. Nathan had been able to send a group of messengers to Verraeter to warn him, but the Traitorous Ones had come to Eriadu intending to wipe that group out.

On Eriadu, the Avenger's Knights and Traitorous Ones engaged the other in a battle that decimated the capital city. The Traitorous Ones held the advantage, as they had more Force-sensitives on their side, and, eventually, the Knights were forced back. Many reported cackling from an unknown source during the entire skirmish, dampening their spirits as a result. Unfortunately, the Knights were pinned up in an abandoned store and were about to be completely encircled when the Traitorous Ones stopped their assault, they had found what they were looking for: a Force nexus on Eriadu created during the Dark Wars.

The leader of the group began to start chanting, invoking the Sith Lords who had come before them to help in the resurrection of their leader. Their cries were heard and a bolt of dark energy enveloped the area, leaving a crater where the Traitorous Ones used to be, but there was someone there and he was laughing.

The leader of the Knights' forces recognized him almost immediately as Nat-ahn Mandrex, the father of Nathaniel Kenobi Solo and a man who had come close to conquering the Galaxy hundreds of years ago. Nat-ahn obliterated the remaining Knights and demanded his son to come and face him, because he knew that he was still alive.

Startled, Nathan considered his options. Leaving Verraeter or the Jedi to deal with his father would be fool-hardy and self-defeating. He knew that he must find a way to get out of his containment, before it was too late.

Nat-ahn, meanwhile, had just made his lightsabers on Ilum and had started re-training himself, awaiting his son's decision. He was three times as powerful as before and was more than a match for Nathan, who around this time had retracted to around the age of eighty-seven. Nathan decided to leave his cell by ghosting and escaped to Ilum, bringing his lightsabers with him.

When he arrived, he saw Nat-ahn enslaving the native colonists to do his bidding for him, including making the native women to dress like Nathan's mother and undergo severe plastic surgery to make them appear as her. Enraged, he forgot his battleplan and started to rush at Nat-ahn, when his father put one of the women in front of him, making Nathan hesitate enough so that Nat-ahn was able to impale him through the stomach.

He saw his life flash before his eyes, and was reassured by the Force ghost of his real mother that he would survive, he just needed to let her go, something he had failed to do for all the years he had lived. He realized his own hypocrisy and bade his mother farewell. Renewed, he ghosted the colonists away, things were about to get ugly.



Even still, he was hopelessly outmatched by his father, who had gotten a more youthful body when he had returned. Still, he hadn't been Blademaster of the Jedi Order for over sixty years for nothing. Mountains began to crumble, sheets of ice tore off, causing massive avalanches across the planet, but still neither touched the other during the new battle of wills they had begun.

Nat-ahn, without his trump card, began to falter, but still remained a force to contend with. He attempted to force Nathan into one of the chasms they had created during the battle, but Nathan forced him back to the spot they had started fighting on: which was in the middle of a huge valley now. They both used their strong Force powers to keep themselves levitated above the valley.

But even then, Nathan was losing, Nat-ahn was just more resourceful, and Nathan's body had seen better days. Growing weary, Nathan stopped, and dropped his lightsabers into the valley below them.

"Have you finally given up, my son? A pity, I have waited for several hundred years for this pathetic brawl."

- Nat-ahn

"Not all fights are won by the lightsaber, father. A fact that you just can't seem to get. I know more of the Force than you could ever hope to grasp. I didn't want to, father, I thought that even you could be redeemed, but I see now that it was a fool's errand. Prepare to suffer the worst any Force-sensitive could ever possibly endure!"

- Nathan

"Wait! What are you doing to m&mdash;ARRRGGGHHHH!!!"

- Nat-ahn

He stopped screaming as he started to fall into the valley below: Nathan had stripped his father of the Force. Nathan caught his father with the Force and descended to him.

"You son of a Hutt! You made me a void in the Force!"

- Nat-ahn

"Get over it, because I'm making you immortal. Every day from now on, you will be cursed with everlasting life, with everlasting pain. You are a vagabond, living your life with knowledge of what you were and what you lost. You will never have another person believe your words again, your lies and deceit stop here, Father. Good luck, because you cannot die, cannot be given peace, and will never become one with the Force. You are the definition of damned, congratulations."

- Nathan

"NO! NO! I cannot be treated like this by you! You cheated!!"

- Nat-ahn

Nathan laughed and replied:

"I won."

- Nathan

Nat-ahn Mandrex lived the rest of his life just as Nathan had stated. He never was able to find another person to convert to his cause, even being rejected by the scum of the Galaxy. He eventually died, but after he had lived an additional one hundred and fifty years in solitude and depression, but his spirit would never find the netherworld of the Force, instead it wandered the cosmos, making him "immortal".

Nathan, meanwhile, spent several years debating whether or not what he had done had been too nice, or right on target. He later forgot about it and began to repair his body in the cryogenics tank again.

Gotta Get Outta Here
During the Second Galactic Civil War, he persuaded his descendant, Destrum Kenobi Solo, to return to the light and fight against her former husband.

His last appearance before the Reaver War was to the latest addition to the Kenobi Solo family: Micale Kenobi Solo. He and a rival had gotten themselves and some friends into trouble. Nathan had instructed Micale on the proper way to ghost, therefore saving his family's bloodline.

Reaver War
The very last 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, whom he had saved previously. 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 destroy 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
<div class="boilerplate metadata" style="background-color: #fff8f8; color: #000000; border-top: 1px solid black; border-bottom: 1px solid black; border-right: 0px solid white border-left: 0px solid white; text-align: center">For a more in-depth version, and the whole story from the beginning: Tales of the Reaver War: Survivalfor ''

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 precaution taken by the Polis Massans, who had realized the patient could injure himself with a "manual" decryostasian.

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 I am. Now that was all spiritual, wasn't it? Being a little sacrireligious is one of my better fortes."

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

Micale, knowing the "flawed" logic of the situation meant that 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 a while 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, Bespin and from freed Jedi captives, 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 must 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 presence 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 too 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 remain 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 diligently, 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 involuntary: 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 who would 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 phrik, 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 crystals 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 available, 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&mdash;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 he had lost a lot 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 all 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. Lucky you."

- Nathan

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

- Astram

They laughed, except for Var'Unk, who didn't understand his 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

"Because 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. 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 of New Zeltros.

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

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 accommodations 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 opportunity 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-drop dead-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 feigning 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 assembled 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 plants that the Galaxy desperately needed during the war.

Sure enough, the Reavers did attack Thyferra, with surprising 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 producing the life-saving bacta.

Alas, it was all for naught, as the Reavers sacrificed their own ships to destroy their hated insectoid enemy's vessels. All the Jedi assembled 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.

Search & Rescue
The trio were sent by Micale to bring any Jedi captives from various Reaver planets, more specifically, those with Jedi Academies. Examples of these were the Anoth Jedi Academy and the Zonju V Jedi Academy.

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 surmised 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 containment 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 the kolto 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 abhorred 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 to them 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 bases.



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

Following this, Nathan felt the presence of his father's tortured, wandering spirit near him, it seemed that Nat-ahn had come back to do the unthinkable: ask Nathan forgiveness for what he had done.

"Father, you know I never wanted things to be the way they are between us. We have both done the other a disservice. I grant you the forgiveness I should have given you a very long time ago. I love you, father."

- Nathan

"And I love you, too, Nathan. I thank you for finding it within your heart to forgive me. Unfortunately, I must remain in this form for all eternity now, but, it will be better now, as I now know I have your forgiveness."

- Nat-ahn

"Father, did you ever think what I did to you was permanent? The only thing keeping your spirit here is you, because you believed what I had told you. I did this so that you could learn that I never truly hated, for I can't bring myself to do so. It was all an act to get you to realize this, and I am grateful that you have. Farewell, father, depart to the Netherworld of the Force for eternity. I will be joining you soon."

- Nathan

"Farewell, my son."

- Nat-ahn

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 her 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 so 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 independent and sold to just about everyone, including the Reavers. Luckily, Micale, Zekel, and Daniell had busted this operation earlier 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 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 VIII'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 laid plans on fortifying Ebaq Nine, chuckling at the irony and his plagiarizing 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 originally 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 continuous state of non-existence/existence, 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.

He watched as a group of Force-sensitives came in-system&mdash;on his orders&mdash;and were promptly slaughtered by the Sith.

Nathan stopped, holding his heart as he realized that he had caused the death of Sisong's Learners. A group he had sworn to protect, and he had failed to back up on.

Once again left in his despair, he failed to notice the malevolent force come for him. Fortunately, a much stronger one alerted him, so that he could avoid the attack of the former.

Nathan noticed that the two lights, one dark, the other light clashed, with the light coming out on top.

He fell to the ground, angered, as he knew who the light represented. The light commanded him to stand. He did as ordered and saw the light transform into the leader of the Learners. The leader told him that it was not his fault. He should not have despaired, the Learners were in a better place, thanks to him. The evil force that had attacked him was a personification of his own psyche, which he had developed as something of a safeguard. Its attack was nothing more than something to prove that it was not his fault.

The leader forgave him again and said that he hoped that Nathan would enjoy the Returning.

Filled with conflicting emotions, he sat down in the pilot's chair, trying to absorb what he had learned, knowing it would help him survive.

The Swarm
During the war, the Reavers had been very particular about their targets. For instance, if a world and/or species was from an ocean homeworld, they would leave them alone. Because they both revered and hated the water, as their homeworld had been virtually H2O difficient.

Another example of their choosing targets were the insectoid races of that Galaxy. The Vratix were one example. Unmercifully, they killed all insects that dared step into their path.

Fearful for their safety, as they watched the Republic crumble, the insectoids rallied together and worked as one to defeat the Reavers.

They styled their attacks just like Nathan's, mostly based on the Rebels of the Galactic Civil War. They attacked the Reavers at their weakest positions, never giving them an advantage.

Nathan soon learned of these freedom fighters and decided to have some peace talks, so as to reach an alliance, possible even them joining him. The two had a common pursuer, but they could not reach an agreement, and as such, they parted ways, but agreed to help the other if at all possible.

One of the main problems in the alliance was a proposed attack on both Eriadu and Coruscant, both of which, Nathan viewed as suicidal. Nevertheless, the insects, or the "Swarm"&mdash;as the Reavers referred to them as&mdash;decided to attack.

Nathan did his best to dissuade them, but to no avail. Finally, though, he managed to bring the surviving Vratix and Gand to join him. The Swarm were massacred at both battles and the remnants joined up with Nathan's forces.

A Rival Comes In To Play
Nathan over the years&mdash;and believe him, years&mdash;has fought and battled with the best. But, yet, he has never had someone considered to be a foe that could match him continuously, unless Darth Abeonis's forces could be counted as such. No, Nathan never truly had someone who could really defeat him in battle. He had simply absorbed too much knowledge and learned how to survive better than the best. This would be the cause of many problems for him and the remnants of the Fifth Republic against the Sith under the Reaver captive-turned Master: Darth Aemulus.

Following the failure of Daniell Kenobi Solo's Sith to gain a foothold in the Galaxy, he instituted his own Sith and bided his time, waiting for either the Republic or the Reavers to win. It did not matter to one such as he, for he would rule all.

The Reavers were powerless to stop him and his seemingly endless supplies of ships, droids, troops, and Sith. While many were led to believe that the Rakatan war machine, the Star Forge had resurrected itself for the second time. (The first being the Naboo debacle, thankfully finished before it could bear fruit by Nathan.) No, the truth was he recruited from all sides. He was a mastermind, and a deadly one at that. The Reavers, desperate, asked Nathan for assistance in the matter.

Perplexed, and thinking it as bait to lure him into a trap, he sent a ghosted message to them. Convinced with their sincerity, he decided to learn of this new Sith. The answer came in the holocron of Daniell Kenobi Solo.

Nathan witnessed as she told of a conversation she had had with Aemulus. She told that she was beginning to think of finishing the war right then and there. He, being angry at the very thought, fought her and almost beat her in a lightsaber duel. He vowed to undermine her authority and take the Sith to their most glorious position ever. He disappeared and the rest was history.

Nathan felt something was coming. He had never had reason to utilize his Shatterpoint Force power before, yet, he felt that to kill this new Sith would do nothing to help either him or the Reavers. He saw in a Force vision that the Nimta had just won a major victory against the Survivors and sighed. He saw that the Sith would ally with them&mdash;if Aemulus was killed&mdash;against the Survivors and Reavers. The vision finished.

"Oh, really? This isn't one of those I-can-kill-the-Sith-at-the-first-chance-I-get-times, is it? Kriffin', jrackin' nine Hells of Corellia!"

- Nathan to no one in particular

While in the "netherverse", Zack Fayne and Jacen Solo chuckled.

"Told you that would get on his nerves, Jacen."

- Zack

"Can't believe his own brother didn't think of that."

- Jacen

So the both of them howled with laughter over their cryptic Force message.

While they were content in their laughter, Nathan's screams of fury had awakened even more vehement people than himself, notably his wife and child. The two had a short, succinct argument and decided that they needed to ally with the Reavers to stop these Sith from taking control of the galaxy, and, in turn, stop the Nimta from taking it from their "allies".

Nathan was determined, nevertheless, to kill him somehow, even if it meant killing all of the other Sith himself to attain that right. Daniell was an exception, as she had "fallen" under very specific circumstances and what she wanted was given to her.

Endgame
<div class="boilerplate metadata" style="background-color: #fff8f8; color: #000000; border-top: 1px solid black; border-bottom: 1px solid black; border-right: 0px solid white border-left: 0px solid white; text-align: center">For a more in-depth version of this look at: Tales of the Reaver War: Death of an Avengerfor ''

For the next seven years, Nathan and the loyal Fifth Republic troops under his command fought Aemulus, being extra careful not to actually put the Sith Lord at risk. He eventually grew tired of it and asked the Sith to come to the planet Dagobah, as neither had ever been there before, and that presented less chance of traps sprung by either of them.

Nathan, who normally would have killed the Sith on site, instead talked to him, reasoning with him, even beginning to influence him.

"You may have wondered why I've called this little staff meeting. Well, hopelessly outmatched foe, I want to die; you're going to kill me. Surprised? I'm not. Waiting for this day, I have. Ooh, is it just me or are you getting that old Yoda vibe? Anyways, O son of the glorious Mantellian dung worm, I wanna die. Want to know why? Good, now let's see. 4,000 years ago&mdash;give or take a hundred&mdash;I became cryogenically frozen on Coruscant. I should have died, but did not. This puzzled me. How was this possible? Later I realized that through the many deaths I had caused over the years, I had been storing up their life energy passively. So, wanting to die, I proceeded to channel it out, but to no avail. I learned that there was only one way to do so&mdash;I must find another who could hope to match me and fight them to the death, only then would I be able to die. Over thousands of years I waited patiently, until I felt the birth of a young human male named Cragen Karr, or this pitiful creature before me. I learned that you would be the perfect one to complete the process of my death, so I waited again for you to mature and for a way to get out of my icy prison. That was when my descendants came into the picture. Micale freed me, but, unfortunately, I forgot about you entirely, not surprising, eh? I mean, just look at you. Eventually, I renewed my knowledge of you and have plotted this day ever since. I will die today, you will marry my widow, take care of my child, and return to the light. Any questions?"

- Nathan

Aemulus was stunned by his words, this was not what he had expected from the Avenger of the Jedi. He had expected a duel to the death, winner take all, but, instead, Nathan was offering him a way out. Defiant and immersed in the dark side, he challenged Nathan to a fight. If Nathan brought him to within an inch of death, then he would relent and follow him, but if Nathan lost, he would take control over Nathan's forces and take his wife and child as well.

"I've been told by many that I'm an iconoclast. Well, why can't I sometimes be iconoclastic to myself, as well?"

- Nathan to Aemulus.

Nathan, again doing something different, made no move in anger to attack him, even though he had threatened his family. The two then proceeded to duel on Dagobah, near the remains of Yoda's old hut.

The two fought till dawn, with Nathan still gaining the lead, each had slashed the other numerous times. Nathan felt a voice emanate from the Yoda's hut. It told him to still talk to Aemulus, to tell him why he should return to the light. Nathan thanked the voice and proceeded to do so.

Eventually, Nathan was able to get into Aemulus' head, but not soon enough. In one of the greatest tragedies&mdash;some consider the greatest behind Alderaan&mdash;the Galaxy had ever seen, Nathan was impaled by Aemulus' lightsabers. No amount of Force powers could resurrect him or keep him alive, not that he wanted that. His last words were: It is finished. The greatest Grand Master of the Order had died on a swamp world of almost no strategic value.

Epilogue
Aemulus was horrified, the Grand Master had sacrificed himself so that he, lowly little Aemulus would return to the light. He decided not to have let him die in vain. His legacy would live on. He would protect the Jedi and Sith from the Reavers and the Nimta that had just become another problem for the war-torn Galaxy.

From afar, Nathan's, Jacen's, Jaina's, Luke's, and Zack's Force ghosts watched the redeemed Sith come back and begin a campaign against the Reavers and Nimta that would help the Survivors return home.

"You know, Nathan. I was beginning to wonder whether or not you were actually going to come here."

- Jaina

"Yeah, always thought I'd be able to bypass this route, but Aemulus was better suited than I to fight them. Besides, it was getting a little boring anyways. I need excitement. So, what do you guys do for fun around here?"

- Nathan

"Well, mostly we bothered you. Hmm...what are we going to do now?"

- Zack

"We could always read that book of Nathan's again."

- Luke

"Uncle, you are a wuss."

- Jacen. *cue Superfriends ending with cheesy joke, oh wait.*

The Spawn of Freedom Comes
During the Battle of Zonama Sekot, Zonama Sekot died, but, fortunately, it released something that could bring the Survivors and Nathan's family some hope...

Legacy
The vast legacy left behind by Nathaniel Kenobi Solo could never be measured in words or through recollections of his exploits. The very amount and number of those many sentients who were effected by his presence and help could fill holobooks and holonovels that would span from his birth in 7 ABY to way after his death in 4,010 ABY.

While not the true "founder" of his very large family, many would wish to make him the architect of the Kenobi Solos. The many descendants he left behind in the Galaxy became some of the order's most celebrated healers, philosophers, iconoclasts, and avengers. Such notables as Darth Verraeter, Mariz Kenobi Solo, and Micale Kenobi Solo are but a few of the many descendants who carried their family name in greatness.

Many friends would mourn his "loss" in Nathan's "first" death, among them his apprentices and followers. No one took the brunt of the revelation harder than Ichi Go, who had become convinced that the man who had been a mentor to him across the ages could never die. Even though Ichi later found out that Nathan was still alive, he still was never able to recover from it.

Over the years, Nathan had gained many an enemy in his fight to end the Sith forever. Foremost among them was Darth Abeonis, who silently mourned the passing of what he would later note as the greatest of his many enemies. Others in the Sith order watched his passing with glee, noting that the last Jedi that could have defeated them was gone and that the Galaxy was theirs for the taking.

In the years Nathan was forced to live his life in cryostasis, he impacted a growing number of sentients. The first was Somcis, with who Nathan was able to form the Avenger's Knights. Others counted themselves in this number, including the Five Who Would Save, Darth Verraeter, Yiunab Aablao, and Gin Chima.

Traits, Personality, Talents, & Factoids

 * Nathan was extremely loyal and almost never left a man behind, notable exceptions are Anakin Solo and Ganner Rhysode, but that was because he had felt it was the Force's will for him to do so
 * Nathan was considered to be a Grey Jedi by the Order, but he said that he followed the Potentium and knows why Jacen Solo "turned" to the "dark side"
 * Nathan has owned four lightsabers in his lifetime, the first were two green, and the final set was a black and white, which when combined into a doublebladed lightsaber, emitted a grey color
 * Nathan and Jaina were both members of the Memorial Hall
 * Many of Nathan's descendants became Jedi, although there was one exception, Imbel Kenobi Solo, a young non-Force-sensitive female smuggler who was the chief supplier to Ossus throughout the Dark Age
 * Besides the Skywalkers and Solos, the Kenobi Solos are considered to be the greatest single family tree to serve the Force
 * Most of them are practitioners of the lightsaber Form X, although some preferred one blade
 * Also, many of them decided to follow in his footsteps and go to Korriban and use the crystals from the cave where he had fought the she-terentatek. The blades were usually black and white. Notable exceptions include Micale Kenobi Solo's yellow lightsabers and Mariz's violet one
 * Nathan was also an iconoclast and was often quoted as saying. If it's not my way, it's the wrong one.
 * Nathan was considered by the Jedi to be a master at all forms of lightsaber combat and Force powers. His most famous, Ghosting, has helped many a Jedi to escape volatile situations
 * Nathan may have been a great swordsman and Jedi, but he suffered in many other areas. His mechanical skills left much to be desired and his linguistics were also a problem
 * Despite having linguistic problems, Nathan learned to speak Shyriiwook, Yuuzhan Vong, Mando'a, and Dosh fluently
 * When faced with something he couldn't control or one of the aforementioned flaws, he often cursed, and also was known as the Avenging Coprologist, a fancy word for cussing and using obscenities
 * Nathan was known for his jocularity and wish to have fun at what he did. He was also known to "haze" new Jedi apprentices in embarrassing ways
 * Nathan also had a special gene&mdash;thanks to his grandfather&mdash;that disabled the ysalimiri's ability to block the Force.
 * Nathan may or may not have been a sufferer of the Power syndrome, a disease that affected very-powerful Force-sensitives. It is highly likely that he was, but he never let himself get tested following his return from cryostasis, so this can never be proven
 * Nathan was known by many names in different societies and cultures. To the Jedi and Sith he was known as the Avenger of the Jedi or the Avenging Coprologist. To the Colonies of the Ottiumigos Centrality, he was known as the Defender of the Colonies. To the Sith Order of Decreto, he was known as Scourge of Decreto. To the Nathanites, he was known as the Avenger of the Peoples. To the Vania, he was known as the Tiornathil literally, The Honored Warrior of the Light. To the Mandalorians, he was referred to as Jetiise Vod Be Gra'tua Bal Ijaa, or Jedi brother of vengeance and honor. To people that didn't like saying his full name a lot, he was known simply as NKSCF.

Behind the Scenes
Nathan is a lot like NKSCF. Loyal, sure of myself, knowledgeable, if he has something he believes in, he/NKSCF will "battle" to defend it, and he's a Human being. He has his faults and NKSCF has his. Note that we're not exactly alike all the way.
