Vontaige was a male Human native to the planet Koros Major in the Koros system . He served as one of the top advisors to Empress Teta , the ruler of the seven unified worlds of the Koros system , and was an important general in Teta ' s military . Vontaige served under Teta in the Unification Wars of the Koros system , fighting against rebels on the world of Kirrek . Teta was victorious in the Unification Wars , and Vontaige returned to his place at her side as one of her top advisors . In 5000 BBY , the Sith Empire , led by Dark Lord of the Sith Naga Sadow , launched the Great Hyperspace War , a surprise invasion of the Galactic Republic . Although Empress Teta had already been forewarned , the size of the Sith invasion force seemed to be overwhelming . After the Great Hyperspace War ' s first outbreak on Coruscant , Vontaige attended a meeting with Teta ; Jedi Knight Odan - Urr ; hyperspace explorer Jori Daragon , who first warned of the Sith threat ; Llaban , former leader of the Kirrek rebel forces ; and several other advisors . During the meeting , Vontaige expressed concern that the Koros military didn ' t have enough firepower to defend their worlds . He also admonished Llaban , telling him that he and his rebels had dealt enough damage . However , Teta forced Vontaige to allow Llaban to speak , and Llaban offered to bolster Teta ' s military with the addition of his rebel army from Kirrek . Teta accepted and dispatched Llaban to command his forces on Kirrek , while Vontaige stayed back on Koros Major to defend the capital of Cinnagar . Vontaige commanded the Koros forces in the resultant battle from atop the city walls of Cinnagar and found himself in a tough situation . He was facing a numerically - superior Sith force , and many of the Tetan warships were damaged or destroyed in the Unification Wars . Still , Vontaige told his soldiers to stay vigilant , while observing the Sith approach with binoculars . In the end , however , Vontaige and the Koros forces prevailed at Koros Major , and the Republic eventually won the Great Hyperspace War . Personality and traits . As one of Teta ' s top advisors and a respected general in Teta ' s military , Vontaige was fiercely loyal to the Empress . Due to the Unification Wars , Vontaige held great disdain for Llaban , who led the resistance to Teta ' s rule on Kirrek , and believed that he should not be allowed to participate in the war with the Sith . Although Vontaige was worried about the size of the Sith fleet compared to the reduced strength of Koros ' navy , Vontaige still led the Koros army against the Sith on Koros Major without reservation .
