Kozakun Elbaz

Kozakun Elbaz, also known as the Hero of Tython, "shield" (Coruscant Aegis call sign), and later commander of the Eternal Alliance and Task force Nova, was a male human Jedi knight at the time between the end of The Cold War and the Third Galactic War between the Republic and the reconstituted Sith Empire. A major figure in the events that took place then, willingly or otherwise, Koz (as he was called by his close friend and fellow Jedi, Xaiven Nur) was present throughout the theater of war, from the Lockdown of Coruscant by the "Planet Prison" all the way to later engagements such as the Battle of Corellia, the war with the Eternal Empire and the Battle of Meridian Complex, when Darth Malgus made his official return to the front lines.

From a young age, Kozakun was one of the best lightsaber duelists in his class. This talent manifested itself most notably when he defeated the lightsaber - wielding fallen student Callef and numerous Flesh Raiders on Tython during his trials. A little bit later, Koz managed to beat the massive Flesh Raider chieftain and Orgus Din's former padawan, Bengel Morr (who had fallen to the Dark side) with a vibroblade he acquired at Kali'kori village (albeit with some assistance from T7-01). 
Some time after, during the Planet Prison crisis on Coruscant Kozakun went toe to toe with a full fledged Sith in Lord Tarnis, Darth Angral's son. Until this point, the form most favored by Koz was the powerful form five - Djem So, which he tried to use on Tarnis when they fought in the ruined Jedi Temple, and managed to beat him - but only survived by the skin of his teeth thanks to Kira and got a scar over his right eye from a glancing blow of the Sith's lightsaber. From that point on, Kozakun decided to incorporate some elements from form four - Ataru and defensive techniques from Soresu (form three) into his fighting style. He became proficient in a Soresu technique called "Saber ward", which lets a Jedi focus through the Force and deflect all incoming lightsaber strikes or blaster shots for a short period of time. 
After years of constant fighting in the countless hot spots of the Cold War, the Eternal Empire conflict and the renewed Galactic War, Kozakun became a master of lightsaber combat, unrivaled by all but the very best both the Sith and the Jedi had to offer.
=== Force Powers ===
Though his training focused primarily on lightsaber combat, Kozakun had an awe - inspiring command of the force. He demonstrated it on numerous occasions, like on Voss, when he was able to lift and push massive Vorantiki with the Force with no visible effort. 
=== Other skills ===
After years of traveling the galaxy, Koz became fluent in several languages, including Huttese, Rodese and ancient Sith Runes (to some extent). Also, due to his battlefield experience, he was able to defuese mines and bombs of simple construction and scavenge valuble materials and equipment of fallen droids and starships.
