Tol Braga Tol Braga was a male Kel Dor Jedi Master of the Jedi Order and a firm believer in the peace process . Biography . Respectfully referred to as " the conscience of the Jedi Order , " Master Tol Braga was a thoughtful scholar , a wise strategist and an avowed pacifist . His greatest achievement as a Jedi to date was when he dueled the Sith Lord Darth Sajar , a member of the Empire ' s Dark Council to a draw — and then convinced his enemy to abandon the path of darkness and train as a Jedi . He then took Sajar as his padawan . Although most Padawans assumed Master Braga developed his opposition to warfare during the Great Galactic War , it began much earlier . His first mission as a young Jedi was to intervene in a violent civil conflict on the planet Duro . Braga saw firsthand the horrors that occur when people take up arms against their own kind , and it forever changed his outlook . Learning of the Children of the Emperor . During the Cold War , Braga was offworld when Satele summoned the Council on Tython , as Padawan Kira Carsen had confessed to have been born a Sith , a Child of the Emperor no less . Though Master Jaric Kaedan labeled Carsen a threat and wanted to imprison her , Braga , communicating with Tython via hologram , argued that they should give her a chance to prove herself as a Jedi , reminding of how redeeming Sajar revealed the existence of the Children . His case was backed by Carsen ' s Master , the future Hero of Tython , and so Carsen was allowed to continue operating as a Jedi . Attempted capture of the Sith Emperor . Following Darth Angral ' s failed attack on Tython , Braga instigated a plan to capture the Sith Emperor , bring him back to Tython and redeem him to the light side — a mission which was insane at best . A member of his team , Jedi Knight Jomar Chul , was shot down on Tatooine after scouting the Dromund Kaas system . Chul later contacted Braga , informing him that the Hero of Tython had rescued him . This intrigued the Kel Dor , who took it as a sign from the Force that their mission would succeed . He instructed Chul to hand over his sensor recordings to the Hero to bring back to Tython while he awaited a medical transport . Upon meeting with the Hero for the first time , Braga explained to the Jedi Knight his plan and sent the Hero to Balmorra to assist Warren Sedoru in acquiring an alien cloaking device , similar to the one hiding the Emperor ' s fortress . Afterwards , he sent the Hero to Quesh , as Sajar had dropped out of contact . The Hero later reported to have saved a Republic base , but sadly , Sajar had committed war crimes against prisoners - of - war and had subsequently turned himself into the Jedi Council . Braga was appalled to hear that his Padawan had lost his way and asked that the Hero show some discretion until the matter is fully investigated . The Hero then mentioned to having encounter the Emperor ' s Wrath , who seemed more interested in the Hero than Sajar . After the Hero and Jedi Knight Leeha Narezz located the schematics of the fortress on Hoth , Braga assembled his team on Tython to discuss their infiltration plan . He maintained confidence that their mission will succeed , given his previous success with Sajar , and dismissed the Emperor as " just another Sith . " But before they could proceed , they are interrupted by the Jedi Council and Chul . Chul reveals that while performing a healing meditation , he had a vision of the Hero falling to the dark side and joining the Sith and insisted he take the Hero ' s place on the mission . Braga dismissed his warning , stating that the future is always in motion and the Council does not pass judgment solely on visions . Masters Satele Shan and Bela Kiwiiks voiced their trust in the Hero ' s loyalty and thus , approved the mission . Chul stormed out , frustrated that they wouldn ' t heed his warning , while Master Jaric Kaedan pleaded with Braga to reconsider . However , the Kel Dor remained confident that his plan would succeed . Fall to the dark side . But upon infiltrating Emperor ' s fortress and confronting the supreme Sith , the Emperor , acknowledging Braga by name , mocked him for his arrogance . The Emperor then unleashed a lightning storm that subdued the Jedi , his dominating influence corrupting them to the dark side and his servants . Braga later managed to break free of the Emperor ' s control but then realized that he allowed pride to blind him to the Sith ' s true nature . Braga now willingly served the Sith Emperor , as his confrontation with that foe showed him the nature of true evil and revealed a powerful force he had grossly underestimated . Realizing that his pride had blinded him to the Emperor ' s power , Braga knowingly surrendered to the dark side as he believed it was the punishment he deserved . Master Braga ’ s failure to redeem the Emperor broke his spirit , and with his pride and faith shattered he succumbed to nihilistic despair . A short time later , Tol Braga was sent by the Emperor on the planet Corellia , which had been attacked by Sith Empire . Onboard the " Eclipse " , Tol Braga encountered the Hero once again . The Jedi Knight tried to free him and prevent the fallen Jedi Master from killing thousands of innocent people on the planet . The Hero eventually confronted Braga aboard the Imperial battlecruiser above Capitol Square , where the Kel Dor had set his ship ' s reactors to overload which would have , at its present altitude , flatten the sector and scatter harmful radiation for hundreds of kilometers . The Hero pleaded with Braga to break free of the Emperor , but he declared that he had already done so and had seen the apparent corruption of the galaxy . Braga engaged the Hero and was defeated which freed him from the Emperor ' s power . The Hero then quickly prevented the reactors from overloading . As the Hero called General Var Suthra to confirm their success , Braga stated that the galaxy ' s suffering had only been prolonged and bemoaned that nothing the Hero did mattered . The Hero then finally understood him : he never faced failure until their mission to the Emperor ' s fortress . Braga admitted that while the Emperor ' s ritual might have been stopped , the Sith Lord would try again and again until he completed it . He willingly gave up the Emperor ' s coordinates and encouraged the Hero to face him and see how pointless their struggles have been before asking to be put out of his misery . The Knight implored him to let go of his past and become a better person , appealing to the good that ' s still inside him . Remembering the confidence that he once felt and allowing hope to swell in his heart , Braga accepted that perhaps the Emperor can be defeated and agreed to consider the offer and returned back to Tython to be redeemed . However , not long after Braga was declared dead by agents of the Star Cabal . Powers and abilities . Braga was among the strongest and most resolute Jedi of his time . During his confrontation with the mighty Hero of Tython , Braga managed to throw the Jedi back during a mid - air leap with a Force - push at one point . Tol Braga then ripped a large console from its foundation and threw it towards his opponent right afterwards with his powers . He also demonstrated a staggering amount of endurance , being able to hold his own in a three day long duel against the Sith Lord Darth Sajar , a member of the Empire ' s Dark Council . Behind the scenes . Depending on the player ' s choices , Braga can either be spared ( light side choice ) , Force - persuaded to kill Sith ( dark side choice ) or killed ( dark side choice ) .
