Jeh’Kant Kai was a Force-sensitive human male Jedi Master who served on the Jedi High Council up until recently. He was in charge of the **Jedi Sphere of Ancient Knowledge** where he earned the title of **“The Sage”**.

As the former head of the Jedi Sphere of Ancient Knowledge, Jeh’Kant Kai looked into artifacts and archaeology revolving around the Force. The more he peered into the Force and its history, the more enlightened he became. It came to a point where his beliefs began to differ from the Jedi Council, which ultimately forced him to leave and walk his own path as a Gray Jedi.

## Personality and Traits

Best known for his humor, Jeh’Kant Kai could best be described as an anomaly if nothing else. While compassionate and caring most times, Jeh’Kant has showcased that he had the potential to be indifferent and cruel whenever the situation warranted it. A resourceful man, with odd tactics, who would do whatever it was necessary for the completion of the mission with great calmness and air of mystery. Some would call this balance, an early identifier of the path he would later walk, while others would believe that there was a darkness in him.

When Jeh’Kant Kai was nothing but a child, he was in awe of the Jedi and their purpose. It was why he joined willingly and as a youngling he was brilliant due to his passion for the Jedi Code. He was naturally talented in many things including mechanics, engineering, and lightsaber combat. A polymath, through and through. However, what he was most talented in, was the Force. As most kids, he was full of energy and brimmed with hope and passion, sometimes even somewhat rebellious in comparison to the other younglings. One thing for certain was, Jeh’Kant would bend the rules as much as he could.

The older he became, the more relaxed he became. Charismatic as always, Jeh’Kant would rely more on his silver-tongue instead of relying on combat. The silver-tongued man was almost reluctant to proceed in dueling which was odd because he was one of the best, only close-second in comparison to his close friend, Cevgo. When he later became Master, Jeh'Kant became more isolated from the rest of the Jedi Council. Perhaps this was as he delved deeper into the Force, he began to believe and form his own belief that there is no light or dark in the Force. His belief became more and more aligned with Potentium, a sect of being that viewed the Force as a whole.

He was not stubborn about his indifference between the Jedi Council and himself. Jeh’Kant merely understood that was their perspective and despite his concerns, they would not listen. There was nothing really he could do, so he left the council and chose his own path. He holds no malice toward the Jedi Order besides thinking they are weak in spirit for not fully exploring the potential of the Force.

### Lightsaber Abilities

You'd expect someone that is so in touch with the Force they'd be lacking in the department of lightsaber combat, but that is far from the case with Jeh'Kant Kai. He has mastered the style of Vaapad and combined it with touches of Jar'Kai and Djem So. This unique style of lightsaber combat employs two lightsabers and combines them with power harnessed from one's emotions to give an advantage. Jeh'Kant, similar to Ahsoka Tano, utilizes an unorthodox reverse grip on his lightsaber.

It's important to note that Jeh'Kant understands that the lightsabers are merely an extension of him. He himself is a weapon and thus employs a lot of acrobatic movements such as lunging and attacking from different heights and angles to pressure the opponent into eventually making a mistake. He applies constant pressure, alongside unrelenting power, in order to force the opponent to succumb. Jeh'Kant employs hand-to-hand combat as well using a variation of Wing-Chun in order to assist. All in all, Jeh'Kant is exceptionally talented in Lightsaber Combat.

#### Cybernetics

Jeh'Kant Kai's right arm had been shattered due to an unfortunate activate, requiring a Mechno-arm replacement. This in turn has increased his speed and strength in that arm, however it severed some of his connection with the Force. The prosthetic is unique in the sense that it is created out of Beskar thus provides incredible defensive capabilities as well.
