Rohlan Dyre Rohlan Dyre was a Human male Mandalorian Crusader and a former commander who fought in the early skirmishes of the Mandalorian Wars . He deserted the wars multiple times in an attempt to find answers pertaining to the war itself . After the battle of the planet Vanquo in 3964 BBY , Dyre deserted the Mandalorians once more and joined forces with the Jedi Padawan Zayne Carrick , the Snivvian con artist Marn Hierogryph , and " The Last Resort " crew to rescue the female Arkanian Offshoot Jarael from an abandoned Republic research station called Flashpoint Station . The station was being used as a base by the Mandalorian scientist Demagol while he experimented with captured Jedi Knights . After Dyre , Carrick and his crew rescued Jarael and the Revanchist Jedi from the Mandalorians , Dyre was incapacitated by Demagol , who Dyre had disabled earlier . The scientist assumed Dyre ' s identity and traveled with Carrick ' s crew . Dyre , encased in Demagol ' s armor , was taken to the galactic capital Coruscant by the Jedi Knight Alek and his fellow Jedi to stand trial . En route to Coruscant , Dyre fell into a drug - induced coma . Eventually , Dyre regained consciousness and was put on trial for Demagol ' s crimes against the Republic . During the trial , Alek , now going by the name Malak , testified against the man whom he believed to be Demagol . After a riot began to break out , Dyre was rescued by Zayne Carrick and Marn Hierogryph when they realized that the Mandalorian who they had been traveling with was not Rohlan Dyre . The two asked Dyre for his aid in stopping Demagol , who was now accompanying Jarael after she left Carrick and his crew . He agreed to do so , and accompanied them to Osadia to confront Demagol . After the confrontation ended in Demagol ' s death , Rohlan helped Zayne find Jarael ' s parents before disappearing once again . Biography . The Questioner . An aged Mandalorian Crusader veteran , Rohlan began to question the tactics of the Mandalorians and the motives behind the war . When Rohlan confronted his superiors with his concerns , he did not receive a satisfactory answer , so the next time he was called up , he did not answer . Dyre was found , and , as a punishment for his desertion , he was placed at the front lines of the war . Rohlan continued to refuse to fight and he was caught and placed at the front lines five times . His last mission was as Commander of the Shocktrooper forces during the Battle of Vanquo . After his troops captured Jarael , believing her to be a Jedi , he personally hijacked " The Last Resort " in an attempt at escape . However , an enraged Camper stunned Rohlan , making it easy for Zayne Carrick to incapacitate him , sealing him in a cargo container . When Rohlan overheard his captors mention that they were headed into Mandalorian space , he offered his help as a guide and so explained his situation and where they were going : Flashpoint Station , where Jarael and a number of real Jedi were being held . The Flashpoint trick . Rohlan brought Zayne to Flashpoint Station as a prisoner . When they arrived , Demagol , a mad Mandalorian scientist bent on discovering what made the Jedi able to use the Force , was just about to conduct experiments on Jarael . Rohlan , however , demanded that Zayne be the next " experiment . " Demagol complied , and Rohlan was able to overpower the scientist . Demagol was locked inside a storage closet , and Zayne took his armor . Rohlan and Zayne left the facility and Zayne , with the aid of the Force , secretly placed charges on key structural points . When Marn Hierogryph disguised as a Republic Admiral of the " " Glomkettle " " , arrived , Carrick set off the charges , forcing the Mandalorians to evacuate . Rohlan ordered the Mandalorians to tell Mandalore that he perished with the facility in an attempt to " rescue " Demagol . Rohlan then went back into the facility to retrieve Demagol . However , the Mandalorian scientist had regained consciousness and managed to drug and switch armors with Rohlan . After the Mandalorians had left , Demagol , now masquerading as Rohlan , pretended to take his leave with the freed Jedi , but sneaked off the vessel at the last second and stowed aboard the " Last Resort " as it left the station , desiring to stay close to Jarael . After the Mandalorians had escaped ( due to their belief that the Republic was attacking ) , Rohlan , who was now believed to be Demagol , was taken back to Coruscant by the formerly captured Jedi . However , en route to Coruscant , he fell into a drug - induced coma and could not be awakened for trial . A stolen identity . On Coruscant , " Demagol " was looked over by a nurse when he finally awakened . Rohlan began muttering about the search for the Jedi at Flashpoint . Surprised , the nurse called the guards to report this news to the Ministry of Defense immediately . Alek Squinquargesimus , now known to the galaxy as Malak , brought " Demagol " to the Ministry of Defense for trial . He wanted to ensure that the sadistic scientist was brought to justice , unaware that the man he was persecuting had helped rescue him at Flashpoint . At trial , Malak started voicing " Demagol ' s " atrocities towards the crowd . Rohlan shouted that he stop calling him by that name and broke his cuffs . Malak used the Force to fling Rohlan across the chamber as he declared that they would defeat the Mandalorians . Rohlan retorted that Malak could not beat his people in a fair fight , demanding to know if the prosecuting Jedi did save the Republic , then who would save it from Malak himself . An angry mob ganged up , forcing security guards to rush Rohlan out of the building . After getting him onto a speeder , the guards revealed themselves as Zayne and Gryph . The pair had realized the identity - switch and needed Rohlan ' s help in rescuing Jarael from Demagol . Taking the fight to Demagol . Hiding in a garage owned by Zayne , Rohlan explained to both Zayne and Gryph what he learned about Demagol . He also expressed disgust when Zayne told him about how Demagol had sold his own daughter , Chantique , into slavery and swore to make the mad scientist a smear on the ground . Zayne then presented Rohlan with a replica of his armor , which had been marketed after Demagol won swoop - dueling in his place , as it would give him more maneuverability . Afterward , Zayne introduced everyone to Rogue Moon Project Command , a group Zayne formed to help out the common people , where they hoped to find out where Demagol had taken Jarael . At that moment , Gryph ' s servant Slyssk remembered a tag that he had found cleaning . Zayne and Gryph identified it as a tag from one of the Sith Artifacts . They realized that Demagol had removed the double - bladed lightsaber of Exar Kun from its nullification resin and brought it with him — and Jarael . Zayne realized that the lightsaber could corrupt the Force - sensitive Jarael and determined to find Osadia , the planet of Demagol ' s school / laboratory and of Jarael ' s birth . Unfortunately , Rohlan insisted that even he couldn ' t find out the location of Osadia . Zayne realized that Dace Golliard , a member of The Crucible , knew where it was . He told Rohlan to call Cassus Fett before it was too late . Rohlan contacted Cassus for assistance in Zayne ' s plan . Cassus agreed , on the condition that Rohlan maintained a low profile ( the Mandalorians were using tales of Rohlan ' s " death " as recruitment propaganda ) . The Mandalorian fleet lured Admiral Saul Karath to an asteroid field close to the Ithor system before swiftly vacating the field . Once the could properly capture Golliard and gain Osadia ' s coordinates . Once Zayne and company arrived on Osadia , Rohlan flew Zayne on his sub - par jetpack to the New Generation Academy , where Zayne crashed a brawl between Jarael and Chantique , and stopped the former from killing the latter . Rohlan personally dealt Demagol a thorough beating , declaring that he was " no true Mandalorian " and had no right to armor , " let alone mine " . However , Demagol was able to Force Push Rohlan through a column , surprising both . Rohlan eventually regained consciousness and went out into the grounds to see Demagol on his knees , shocked that Chantique had buried and killed his students ( in that order , this being Chantique ) . Rohlan corroborated Zayne ' s argument that Jarael was not Force - sensitive by pointing out that Demagol used the Force to throw him away and had been unwittingly using it throughout his travels with Zayne . Chantique interrupted the argument by leaping at her father with a vibroknife . Demagol used the Force to pull the lightsabers of Zayne and Exar Kun to him ( with which to cut down his daughter , this being Demagol ) , gambling on a supposed " 50 - 50 chance " of getting the right one ( Zayne ' s ) and not getting impaled . As both Chantique and Demagol lay dying after being impaled on Exar Kun ' s double - bladed lightsaber , Zayne pointed out that around him , there was no such thing as a " 50 - 50 chance . " Rohlan returned with Zayne and Jarael to Coruscant , where the former arranged for the latter to be reunited with her parents ( assisted by Rohlan ) . As Jarael embraced her parents , Rohlan vanished into thin air , presumably to return to his mission of discovering the true reason behind the war . Behind the scenes . According to John Jackson Miller , the name Rohlan " is partially inspired by the similarly sounding name of , the paladin of . "
