Nason Nason was a female Human who was the youngest daughter of Crion , governor of the planet Telos IV . Her brother was Xanatos , a Padawan of the Jedi Order . She was considered to be a Telosian princess . Biography . Early life . A female Human , Nason was the daughter of Crion , governor of the the planet of Telos IV . Her brother , Xanatos , was a Padawan of the Jedi Order . At some point , she became romantically involved with a fallen Jedi named Dairoki , who worked for her father . Agent of change . Around 53 BBY , Lord Crion hatched a plan to eliminate the growing planetary insurgency that threatened his rule , a goal that Nason ' s lover , Dairoki , assisted him in . By using chaos and off - worlders , Dairoki created a link between the rebels of Telos IV and the nearby planet of Toprawa . With the Telosians being a nationalistic people , Crion knew that the idea that off - world invaders were working in collusion with the insurgency would drive away all popular support for their cause . To this end , Dairoki became a trusted member of the insurgency , and his association with Lord Crion was known to very few , including Nason , who worked as a contact between her father and the fallen Jedi . Their plan began with the murder of the High Priestess Liora , of the Order of Than - Onna , a peace - maker who was beloved by both sides of the political spectrum . Dairoki himself undertook this murder , Force - pushing the old woman from a high platform and causing her to plummet to her death . Crion sought to frame Toprawa for this murder , furthering their ruse that their neighboring world sought to destabilize their society . In a frozen cave outside the city of Thani , Nason met up with Dairoki . When he noted that she was trembling , she told him it was from the temperature , but he sensed that she was afraid and sought to reassure her . He reminded her that she was heir to the planet , and that their plans would ensure both her ascendency and that the world was united once she took the throne . Nason understood the reasons , but regretted the methods . The Jedi Order , disturbed by the stirrings of war in the Telos system and the murder of the pacifist Liora , sent Jedi Master Qui - Gon Jinn and his Padawan Xanatos — Nason ' s younger brother — along with Master Tahl and an unassigned Padawan , Orykan Tamarik to investigate and prevent the growing conflict . Xanatos was filled with conflicting emotions , though Jinn reminded him that this was merely a test . Immediately upon their arrival to the planet , however , they were attacked , and their shuttle was shot down above the Chodo Habat Parkway . Using the Force to save themselves , the Jedi survived the crash , only to be attacked by the Telosian rebels . Just as Xanatos was about to be killed by a rebel , Crion and his guard came to their rescue . With the battle won , Crion welcomed Xanatos back to his homeworld . After being guided by one of Crion ' s advisors , Hukowl An Devi , the Jedi made their way into the capital . Meanwhile , Dairoki met up with Nason once again , asking if she had seen her brother since he ' d arrived . Nason was in disguise , yet Dairoki had no trouble identifying her . He pulled down her veil in order to kiss her , but she admonished him and he pressed their political maneuverings instead . He reminded her that she must use her relationship with her brother to their advantage , though Nason was not sure that he would succumb to such manipulation . The Jedi continued their investigation into Liora ' s murder , visiting the temple where she was slain . Orykan managed to see the murder momentarily , but the darkness of the event overwhelmed her and she collapsed . Jinn , too , sensed some of what had happened there , and was certain that a Jedi had played some part in Liora ' s death . Meanwhile , Master Tahl had gone to the city ' s library to search for further information , and on her exit happened upon a man dressed as an Antarian Ranger claiming that the attack on the Jedi was meant to serve as a message . Tahl interrupted his conversation , which caused the " Ranger " and his two cohorts to attack her . She killed the two rebels , but the Ranger escaped , leaving the Jedi with more questions . That night , Jinn told Tahl about his experience at the temple , and how the presence of the attacker had felt like , " A Jedi . And yet , not a Jedi " . Tahl then pointed out the old tradition of Antarian Rangers training beside Jedi , and how Yoda had declined Tahl ' s offer of enlisting their help in this mission ; the two Jedi Masters ended the night believing that a true Antarian Ranger may have murdered Liora . Death . Later that night , Nason once more met up with Dairoki in the frozen cavern outside the capital . She remarked that he had skipped the ceremony remembering Liora ' s death , but he pointed out that while he could slip in and out of any location undetected , he could not allow the Jedi to see him . The man that Tahl had encountered was indeed a false Ranger and was working for Dairoki , which caused the scarred former Padawan to become even more cautious . Nason , while feeling as though their relationship had changed , was pleased that Tahl was unable to question the " Ranger " . The next day , Dairoki met with the false Ranger in broad daylight , as the man made excuses for his close call with Tahl . He then gave the man a lightsaber and remarked that he would be remembered for his actions . Meanwhile , Nason and Xanatos raced hoverbike s across the Telosian desert as the Padawan ' s sister reminded him of his past . They stopped for a moment , but as they raced off again , Dairoki watched from behind an outcrop nearby , seemingly displeased that the two were growing closer instead of her manipulating him as they ' d intended . Nason and Xanatos returned to the capital , where they sought their father . Tahl encountered them just as the sounds of blaster fire erupted nearby . The insurgents had struck back against Lord Crion and a small contingent of his guards , encircling them beside a fountain . Xanatos warned his sister to stay away as he , Tahl , and a just - arriving Jinn jumped into the fray . In a dark alcove nearby , Dairoki watched , seething at the rebels ' inability to follow his orders . He too joined the battle , attacking an insurgent , to Crion ' s great anger , while Jinn noticed the former Jedi immediately . Nason became cornered during the fight , and as Hukowl An Devi tried to reach her , she was shot through her abdomen , killing her instantly . Dairoki was filled with rage and attacked both insurgents and Crion ' s guards alike . The remaining rebels fled , as did Dairoki , who swore that he would act " another day " . Crion , in his rage over the loss of his daughter and Dairoki ' s betrayal , shot at the fleeing man , but missed . In the aftermath of the battle , Jinn and Tahl both remarked that they recognized Dairoki by his extensive scars , and Tahl professed that perhaps their mission was in fact a test for Jinn . Legacy . After Nason ' s death , both Crion and Dairoki became despondent and irresponsibly , acting from their emotions . Dairoki soon made his way to Lord Crion ' s bedchambers , sneaking past dozens of armed guards and waking him up . Crion screamed at him for being there , but Dairoki reminded him that Nason was the one he was supposed to see . Crion mocked him , and Dairoki told him that his daughter was much more than just a contact . Crion accused him of getting Nason killed , while Dairoki told him how he ' d try to stall the rebels for longer . Dairoki apologized for his failure in protecting Nason , but told Crion that his planting of the lightsaber should solidify the Antarian connection to the insurgency , and therefore the rebels ' connection to Toprawa . Crion dismissed all of Dairoki ' s ideas , saying that if the Jedi had seen him , then all his manipulations would not fool them . Instead , he told the failed Padawan to leave the planet immediately . When Dairoki objected , Crion backhanded him across the face , and threatened him that he should leave his world . Without a word , Dairoki slipped away back into the night . The manipulations of Nason and Dairoki did indeed work , however , and the next morning Minister An Devi gave a speech to scores of Telosians , outlining the supposed conspiracy between the insurgents , the Antarian Rangers , and the Toprawan government . Diplomatic ties with Toprawa were severed , native Telosians were brought home , and Toprawans were deported from Telos IV . Stirring nationalist feelings and the memories of Nason and High Priestess Liora , An Devi called for unity and strength . Later that day , Crion himself made a speech hundreds of Telosian soldiers . He ordered the military to crush all those who supported the insurgency , even if it meant waging war in their own streets . His son , Xanatos , had left Jinn and joined him , and Crion used his appearance to claim that the Jedi Council was supportive of this action . Soon after Crion ' s call to war and the ensuing violence ripped through the capital , Dairoki slipped into Minister An Devi ' s apartment as the man watched another Ithorian sleeping . Dairoki assured the minister that they were on the same side , and An Devi in turn told him that he recognized him from his assistance during the attack that killed Nason , as well as remembering his visible grief . Dairoki was frustrated with Crion ' s actions , and feared that the lord was losing focus as he mourned his daughter . The scarred man was afraid that after everything they ' d done to unify Telos IV , Crion was going to allow the violence to spiral out of control and make matters worse than before . He lamented that Nason and Liora ' s deaths would be for nothing , letting slip that he and Crion were ultimately responsible for both . Appalled , An Devi suddenly attacked him , though Dairoki deftly kicked out the Ithorians leg and knocked him to the ground . As An Devi shouted after him , Dairoki fled the minister ' s apartment and jumped out into the city , saying aloud that he ' d had enough of the planet and meant to leave . All of Dairoki ' s fears came to pass after he fled Telos IV . Widespread violence led to untold deaths , while An Devi used the information revealed by Dairoki to enlist Jinn and Tamarik into helping him quell the chaos . An Devi revealed to all Telosians that there was no outside conspiracy , and that it was Crion himself who had betrayed them . Though Crion ' s guards stayed loyal to their lord , An Devi ' s speech caused even more people to rise up against Crion ' s rule . Jinn went after Crion himself , hoping to rescue Xanatos from the madness his father had caused , but the lord attempted to duel Jinn instead . Using a sword against Jinn ' s lightsaber , the fight was a quick one , and Crion fell to his death among the decorative fires of his palace . Losing himself to his father ' s machinations and the dark side of the Force , Xanatos betrayed the Jedi , striking out against both Tamarik and Jinn , and in the mob violence that overwhelmed the palace , he disappeared . With the truth behind Crion ' s conspiracy revealed and with Xanatos and Dairoki abandoning the cause of unifying Telos IV , the civil war ended and the two sides negotiated a cease - fire .
