Kavar Kavar was a Jedi Master and member of the Jedi High Council during the Mandalorian Wars and Jedi Civil War . He was also close friends with Meetra Surik , who learned under him as an informal Padawan prior to the Mandalorian Wars . Biography . Little is known about Kavar ' s early life . It is possible that he fought in the Great Sith War . It is also known that , at some point , he informally trained Meetra Surik who would eventually become known as the Jedi Exile . He would become good friends with her at some point . At the beginning of the Mandalorian Wars , Kavar was involved in skirmishes against the Mandalorians . The Mandalorians came to believe that Kavar , the " famed Jedi Guardian " , would be placed in command of the Republic ' s overall war effort once the Jedi entered the war . However , the Council chose to remain neutral throughout the conflict , and it was Jedi Knights Revan and Malak who led a force of rebellious Jedi in their place . Many among the Mandalorian survivors often wondered how differently the war would have gone had Master Kavar , not Revan , been leading the Jedi during those fateful years . After the war with the Mandalorians was over , the High Council judged Surik for joining Revan in his crusade against the Mandalorians . The Council chose to banish her , but not because she followed Revan . They sensed that she was a wound in the Force , and were afraid of what might happen if she remained in the Order . Little information is known about Kavar during the Jedi Civil War except that he fought alongside the Jedi ranks against the forces of Darth Malak . He was presumed dead at some point during these events , but that was far from the truth . Exile on Onderon . After the Jedi Civil War , Kavar went to Onderon and became the advisor of Queen Talia . He would stay in the shadows of the Royal Palace , but when he did speak , he was described as being " cryptic as hell . " As tensions rose between Queen Talia and her cousin , General Vaklu , Kavar urged Talia to wait until the true threat , Vaklu ' s unseen supporters , showed itself . When the " Ebon Hawk " attempted to land in Iziz , Vaklu ' s forces under Colonel Tobin ' s command fired upon it , sparking a dogfight between Onderonian forces and the Republic and creating more tension in the city . Through the alliance of the Mandalorians on Dxun , the captain of the " Ebon Hawk " , Meetra Surik , made arrangements through a doctor named Dhagon Ghent to meet Kavar . Kavar met with Surik in the Iziz Cantina . Just as Surik was to learn the full circumstances behind her trial , Tobin ' s forces showed up and opened fire in the cantina . Kavar stunned Tobin ' s men and escaped to the palace , while Surik was forced to fight her way through several troops back to her ship . As he ran , Kavar told Surik that he would get word to her when he was able . Not too long after these events , Kavar sent a message to the Mandalorian Kelborn , telling him to contact Surik and tell her that he had arranged safe passage for her back to Onderon . But Surik got the message too late : the Council of Lords , under the influence of General Vaklu , decreed that Talia was guilty of treason soon after the message was sent . With the Onderonian military divided between support for Talia and Vaklu , the Onderon Civil War began and passage to the planet was no longer safe . When Surik heard the message , she rushed back to Dxun and enlisted the aid of the Mandalorians there . She then used a Basilisk war droid to reach Onderon . While Surik made her way to the palace , Kavar and a group of troops fought at the palace gates against Vaklu ' s supporters , the Sith and their beasts . Kavar was forced to retreat inside the palace , where he coordinated the battle . The Exile eventually reached Kavar , and he directed her to Captain Kadron . When Surik made it to the throne room , Kavar rushed in and eliminated some of Vaklu ' s troops . He stayed back , however , when Talia and Surik fought Vaklu themselves . He would also remain quiet when Talia decreed that Vaklu was to be executed . The short but devastating civil war was ended , with Onderon ' s rightful ruler still on the throne . Kavar answered Surik ' s questions , but was shocked to learn that Atris survived the attack on Katarr , not knowing that she had never attended the conclave . He agreed to join the Council on Dantooine after the Exile had gathered all of the remaining Jedi Masters . Death . Once Surik had done so , he met with fellow Masters Vrook Lamar and Zez - Kai Ell at the rebuilt Jedi Enclave , and encountered Surik for what would be the last time . The Council decided that it was time Surik knew the truth , and told her everything : she was a wound in the Force , she had cut herself off from the Force . All three of them found it necessary to rid Surik of the Force , fearing she was a threat to life itself . However , as they were about to cut Surik ' s ties to the Force , Kreia , whom Kavar and the other masters had previously believed to be dead , entered . After presenting herself , Kreia decided to make the three Jedi " see the Force through the eyes of the Exile " and killed them with an extreme version of Force drain leaving them dead and drained of the Force . Powers and abilities . Kavar practiced Jar ' Kai variants of the lightsaber combat forms Ataru , Shien , Niman , and Juyo . He fought using two blue lightsabers — one regular lightsaber in his right hand , and a shoto in his left . In his first meeting with Surik on Onderon , he was carrying only his regular saber with him . He could also use sever Force ability which he used on Surik . Kavar was a master of the advanced Force form s , and was so proficient in using Force Stun that he could stun multiple targets simultaneously . He was capable of using Force wave against enemies , and also used the Jedi healing ability . Behind the scenes . From conversations between Kavar and Meetra Surik , it is known that she received some degree of training under the Jedi Master ; however , Kavar specifically states that she was not his Padawan although he stated that he considered making her his Padawan . He was voiced by Tom Kane . Alternate endings . If the player has set the Jedi Exile to the dark side , they will side with General Vaklu . The Exile will then battle against Kavar , who will be surprised to see his former friend fallen so far . As a result , the player is forced to kill Kavar , resulting in his absence on Dantooine . Should the Exile support Talia , there is still a chance to kill Kavar in the Enclave if the Exile killed either of the other Masters , Vrook or Zez - Kai Ell . In cut content of the game , Kreia has more dialogue for the Masters after she drains them of the Force . They do not die instantly ; instead , Kreia Force Crushes or Force Chokes them . Kreia will ask Kavar if , during his stay on Onderon , he had felt what had taken place on its moon Dxun .
