Alek Matayo

This clone of Yamato Kamiya, although he believed himself to be his brother, became deranged, driven by pure hatred and insanity. How he was cloned and who created him is currently unknown. He saw the attempt to transform the dark past of the Kamiya legacy into a good one as an insult; a form of treachery. When Yamato was a Jedi Knight, he was enraged at the path he had taken, so in response, he created an army of clones of Yamato, and used them to hunt down and kill as many Kamiya relatives as they could find. Eventually, Yamato himself, with the help of a few other Jedi including Mira and a dimunitive Jedi named Yoshi, destroyed and shut down the cloning process for good. When Yamato died, and word of a son that was destined to finally break the curse on the legacy reached Alek, he went on a rampage to locate him, eliminating the remaining relatives and Kale Kamiya's mother Amanda Terran, but was unsuccessful in tracking down Kale. Alek later encountered Kamiya on the world of New Bornalex where Alek was presumingly defeated, but returned, with a vengeance greater than before. He became a Sith Acolyte in the Praetorian Order and possessed Kale's padawan Yuna Lee for some time. He continued to attempt to make Kale's life miserable as well towards any loved ones he may have had.

Death and Rebirth
Alek was later killed in a chaotic duel between Kale and seemed to be dead for good this time, but approximently two centuries later, a figure resembling Alek appeared at least three times to Kale Skywalker, Christie Homewood, and Holly "Shadow" Raesha.
