Hunt for Jaesa Willsaam During the Cold War between the Galactic Republic and the Sith Empire , the Sith Lord Darth Baras dispatched his apprentice on a galaxy - wide hunt for the Jedi Padawan of Nomen Karr , Jaesa Willsaam , in order to end the threat her Force powers posed to Baras ' spy network . History . A threat revealed . While operating on Dromund Kaas , Baras was able to have a Republic spy , Grik Sonosan , captured . Through an ancient torture and interrogation device known as the Ravager , which had been retrieved by the Warrior , Baras was able to glean that a new Republic threat had risen to challenge his interests . One of Baras ' oldest enemies , Jedi Master Nomen Karr , had been training a Padawan with the unique ability to discern one ' s true nature with but a glance . Fearing that his extensive spy network could be compromised by the Padawan ' s unique talent , Darth Baras sent the Warrior out into the galaxy to track down and destroy the threat . To this end , the Baras provided the Warrior with a pair of lavish gifts : a protocol droid designated 2V - R8 and a " Fury " - class Imperial interceptor . Once acquainted with the ship , Baras called via hologram and explained that the Warrior ' s first mission is to first eliminate his exposed spies . Hunting a Jedi . The Warrior ' s first stop was at war - torn Balmorra . Balmorra had played a significant role in the Great Galactic War as both the location of military manufacturing plants and its close proximity to the Core Worlds , but had been abandoned by the Republic military a decade prior due to the terms of the Treaty of Coruscant . Despite this , the planet still offered stiff resistance to the encroachment of the Sith Empire ' s forces ; one of the many hurdles that the Warrior had to overcome during the mission there . Baras ' spy , Commander Rylon , was embedded amongst the Balmorran resistance and Karr had sent an investigator to expose him . Working with Lieutenant Malavai Quinn , the Warrior worked to cover Rylon ' s tracks , including silencing his son Durmat , who easily confessed to his father ' s true allegiance while imprisoned . The Warrior then went to confront Rylon at the Balmorran Arms Factory and had to fight him to make his death seem convincing . Quinn then warned the Warrior that the investigator is a Jedi Knight , who had recorded the conversation between the Warrior and Rylon and was headed for the Sobrik spaceport . Upon confronting the Jedi , Mashallon , who boasted that she has transmitted the proof to the Jedi Council . She further boasted that her purity in the light side of the Force makes her better than the Warrior ' s strength in the dark side . The Warrior didn ' t practically care for her emotionless dribble and engaged her in a lightsaber duel . Seriously wounded , Mashallon offered no resistance , believing that she had at least served the greater good . Just then , Quinn arrived with a squad of Imperial troopers , revealing that he had intercepted her transmission , thereby keeping the Jedi in the dark . The Warrior then executed her . The Warrior later met with Quinn in his office in Sobrik , to report to Baras . The Warrior also gave credit to Quinn for his assistance in the mission , so Baras promoted him to Captain and a posting of his choosing . Quinn chose to serve with the Warrior . The Warrior ' s next mission was on the notorious Huttese moon of Nar Shaddaa . Though forced to contend with and become involved in many of the criminal underworld ' s intrigues , the Warrior ' s mission was simply to plug an information leak by executing one of Darth Baras ' former agents — who had betrayed Baras by defecting to a rival Sith Lord , Rathari . After completing the mission on Nar Shaddaa , Baras warned his apprentice that a Republic listening outpost had been tracking his ship since the beginning of his missions . The Warrior diverted from the primary mission and quickly laid waste to the listening post , destroying important parts of its mechanisms . Arriving in the command center , the Warrior came face - to - face with Nomen Karr , who was monitoring the station via hologram . Karr stated that he was aware of Baras acquiring a new apprentice , so he set up this listening post . He pleaded for the lives of the technicians before them , stating that they were only following orders . The Warrior refused and slaughtered them all . This excessive display horrified Karr , as the Warrior continued to mock him . Karr then boasted that the Warrior is unaware of what he had planned , only for the Warrior to reveal that they know of his Padawan . Surprised at this , Karr regained his composure and declared he would keep his Padawan safe from the taint of the Sith , even as the Warrior promised to " have her skull as a trophy . " Karr then summoned a squad of Republic troops , claiming them to be the Republic ' s finest and urged the Warrior to surrender . The Warrior refused and killed them . Karr then closed the transmission , stating that he has valuable insight on how to defeat the Warrior for their eventual confrontation . With the ship ' s tracks covered , the Warrior then proceeded on to Tatooine in order to destroy many of the mysterious Padawan ' s personal connections . By sending the Warrior on this mission , Baras hoped that he could use the Warrior to draw out and destroy their prey . However , the Warrior suggested turning the Padawan to the dark side . Baras could not deny the thought , but warned that the Padawan is still dangerous and seduction to the dark side should be left to masters . Upon landing Tatooine , Baras explained that the target is Master Yonlach , who brought the Padawan ' s powers into expression . The Warrior then met with Baras ' contact , Sharack Breev , who helped the Warrior retrace the Padawan ' s trials throughout the planet , which included facing a Sand demon . While tracking the Padawan , the Warrior arrived at an oasis in the desert . Here the Warrior was confronted by a reflection of the light side , claiming to be his true potential . The reflection attempted to convince the Warrior to abandon the dark side and embrace the light . The Warrior refused and dueled with the reflection . Prevailing , the reflection then started spouting dark side energy and merged with the Warrior . The image then revealed to him the location of the Yonlach ' s hut in the Dune Sea . However , Sharack stated apprehension , as the Dune Sea go beyond the Forbidden Pass , where no one has ever returned from . The Warrior eventually found Yonlach ' s hut in the middle of the desert . Yonlach ' s bodyguard , Yul - Li , urged his Master to retreat to safety while he engaged the Sith , but Yonlach restrained him . Yonlach reveals that he has been remotely watching the Warrior ' s progress and is disgusted by the Sith ' s perversion of the journey of enlightenment . He also knows that the Warrior seek Karr ' s Padawan , so he warned her via their psychic link to remain in hiding . He demanded that the Warrior turn back , claiming that he would not prevail against two Jedi , but the Warrior refused . But before engaging , Yonlach rendered the Warrior ' s companion unconscious to uneven the odds . Despite being outnumbered , the Warrior managed to hold the two Jedi off and bested them . In desperation , Yul - Li gave the Padawan ' s identity : Jaesa Willsaam . But before he could reveal more , Yonlach wiped all memory of Jaesa from his mind . He refused to give out any more information , stating that Jaesa would lead the Jedi to greatness if untouched by the likes of the Sith . Yonlach offered no further resistance , stating that when he is struck down , Jaesa will feel how calm he is in the face of death . The Warrior obliged him , but decided to make the experience painful and struck the aging Jedi Master down . Having learned the Padawan ' s identity , the warrior then traveled to her homeworld of Alderaan , which was itself embroiled in a civil war between the Republic - backed House of Organa and the Empire - backed House of Thul . There , the warrior set about various tasks to aid the Empire ' s ally and became involved in a number of House Thul ' s conflicts with various Alderaanian noble houses . In the course of the mission , the warrior learned that , apparently , Willsaam had been discovered as a Force - sensitive while acting as a servant girl to Lady Renata Alde of House Alde . After cleaving a path through Alde territory and murdering her personal bodyguard , Lady Renata confessed that Willsaam had actually been handmaiden to Gesselle Organa , before being taken into custody by Thul forces . The warrior , with ally Duke Kendoh Thul then set about the difficult task of assaulting the Organa position . Gesselle Organa and her forces were protected by a tremendously powerful force field , which was powered by siphoning off power directly from Alderaan ' s planetary generator . With the aid of Thul forces , the warrior set out to sabotage the generator to force it into backup mode — cutting off any excess power drains , thereby deactivating the Organa force field . After sabotaging the planetary generator , the Warrior successfully cleaved a path into the Organa encampment , slaying numerous soldiers before confronting General Gesselle herself . By torturing her personal guards , one of whom was revealed to be her lover , the Warrior was able extract the information he desired from Organa . She revealed that Jaesa Willsaam ' s parents were still servants at Castle Organa . The Warrior then executed General Gesselle and her bodyguards for defying the Empire . Continuing the relentless assault , the Warrior fought through Castle Organa ' s many soldiers and guards to find Willsaam ' s parents , only to discover them guarded by the Jedi Volryder . The Warrior shocked Volryder by Force choking the older couple to death , and then quickly slayed the Jedi in single combat . While reporting the mission ' s success to Darth Baras , the Warrior learned that Duke Kendoh had turned on his Sith ally , telling Baras lies in order to advance his own position as an Imperial ally . While confronting and executing Kendoh for his treachery , Kendoh ' s bodyguard and fellow Sith FimmRess stood by and allowed vengeance to take its course . Confrontations . Having murdered Willsaam ' s parents , the Warrior was surprised to find a holomessage from the young Padawan waiting to be viewed . As Darth Baras had planned , she had felt the death of her parents through the Force and was grieving for their loss . Without her master ' s knowledge , she arranged a meeting between herself and the Warrior aboard her ship in the Outer Rim . Instead of finding Willsaam or any crew , the Warrior found just two Jedi Knights aboard the ship . They revealed that their master , Nomen Karr , had learned of Willsaam ' s plan and sent Ulldin and Zylixx instead — to kill the Warrior . The Knights engaged the Wrath , but the two were quickly defeated . Zylixx was nearly close to the dark side when the warrior immediately slays him while Ulldin was badly injured . As the Wrath was ready to kill him , Ulldin was ready to die and become one with the Force . The Warrior contacted Baras upon returning to the ship to report in , but was given far more surprising news by Baras than the news of being ambushed by a pair of Jedi . Nomen Karr had finally succumbed to Darth Baras ' machinations , and sought to arrange a duel between Jedi Master and Sith Lord on Hutta to finally resolve their dispute . But not to be drawn into what might have been a trap himself , Baras sent the Warrior to the duel in his stead . With both youth and strong martial skills to rely upon , Baras was confident in the Warrior ' s ability to defeat his old rival . The Warrior traveled to Hutta , and from the spaceport to the site of the arranged duel . Though it was not a trap for Baras , and nor was Karr surprised that Baras hadn ' t come himself , the Warrior and the Jedi Master dueled nonetheless . Still seeking to draw out Willsaam , the Warrior goaded and taunted Karr throughout the fight until Karr finally embraced the dark side . Ultimately however , Karr proved to be no match for the combat prowess of the Warrior and was defeated . After a period of torturing the newly - Dark Jedi , Willsaam arrived to resolve the conflict permanently . Upon seeing her Master defeated , tortured , and twisted by the dark side , she engaged the Warrior with her double - bladed lightsaber in a duel of their own . The strength and combat prowess of the Warrior quickly defeated her as well . After she had acknowledged the power of the dark side over the light side the Warrior took her on as an apprentice .
