## Biography

### Jedi of the Order

An Force-Sensitive Zabrak, **Agen Kolar** was born during final decades of a Old Galactic Republic government's rule, hailing from Iridonia. After his sensitivity to the Force was discovered, he underwent training to become a member of the Jedi Order. By twenty-two years before the Galactic Civil War, he held the rank of Master and was one of their Order's leading members, known as one of its best swordsmen. Master Agen Kolar was frequently assigned to missions across the Mid Rim, traveling to the edges of Republic authority and beyond. he had gained prominence and respect among the Jedi for his skills and also exploits, though his finesse in conducting Jedi diplomacy was lacking; he'd rather preferred to act, aggressively if necessary.

#### Dawn of the Clone Wars

When word reached the Jedi Council that Jedi Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi had been captured on the planet Geonosis while investigating a assassination plot and after having stumbled upon an ominous meeting of an newly formed Confederacy of Independent Systems, Kolar and his Padawan were among the Jedi present at the Jedi Temple on Coruscant. Both of them were summoned to follow Jedi Master Mace Windu as part of the strike force sent to rescue an Jedi Obi-Wan from the Separatists. Kolar and his student were among the Jedi who infiltrated the galleries of the Petranaki execution arena where Kenobi was to be executed alongside fellow Republic captives a Padawan Anakin Skywalker and Senator Padmé Amidala. On Mace's cue, Kolar and his fellow Jedi revealed themselves in a show of force, but Confederate Head and a former Jedi Master Count Dooku deployed a force of battle droids against the Jedi. He and his Padawan battled fiercely, cutting their way onto the arena floor, but numerous Jedi began falling to the massed laser fire of the battle droid forces.

#### Jedi of the High Council

He and his student joined a circle of Jedi survivors on the arena floor, but his pupil did fell in combat among them. When the situation looked most grim, with the few Jedi surrounded by Dooku's army, the Jedi Grand Master Yoda then arrived with clone reinforcements from the newly-commissioned Grand Army of the Republic. Agen Kolar was saved and joined the battle against the Separatist armies on-planet, becoming one of few Jedi survivors. Kolar was saddened by the loss of his Padawan pupil, but stayed true to the Jedi principle of their non-attachment, accepting the loss of his student and moving on. With the Clone Wars begun, Kolar was made an Jedi General in the Grand Army of the Galactic Republic. In the last year of the Clone Wars, Grand Master Yoda experienced a vision of Kolar's death at the hands of a Sith while on the world Dagobah. Agen Kolar took part in several important discussions such as when Supreme Chancellor Palpatine reported that General Grievous was hiding on Utapau and suggested that the Jedi dispatch Anakin Skywalker. The High Council instead dispatched Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi to lead the search for the Confederate leader and end the war.

### Fall of the Order

#### End of Jedi and Rise of Sith

When Jedi Council was informed that Kenobi had killed Grievous in combat, they moved to confront Palpatine and force him to lay down his emergency powers, now that the war was largely ended. Windu assembled a team consisting of the Masters Kolar, Tiin, and Fisto. As they were preparing to depart, however, Skywalker arrived with shocking news: Sheev Palpatine had revealed himself to Skywalker as being Darth Sidious; the Republic was being ruled by a Sith Lord. Windu ordered Skywalker to remain in the Temple and set off with the three Masters. Kolar brought up the rear as the four High Jedi Council members strode into Palpatine's office. Each lit their Lightsabers as Windu declared Palpatine under arrest. A brief discussion led to Palpatine drawing his Lightsaber and leaping across his desk, landing and then stabbing Kolar, who was unable to bring his blade into position swiftly enough, through the torso. Kolar died by a Siths hand, crumpling to the floor. Tiin was killed in very short order, and Fisto soon followed. Palpatine killed Windu, made Skywalker the Lord Darth Vader, and forged a Galactic Empire, declaring the Jedi traitors, with Kolar becoming one of the first victims of the Jedi Purge, an effort made by the Sith to eradicate all traces of all Jedi Knights themselves and the religion of the Order.

## Powers and Abilities

### Abilities

**Lightsaber Skills:** AgenKolar built his Lightsaber in such a way that it used dual crystals, which allowed the color of an Lightsaber to be either blue or green. He was also a master swordsman of the Jedi Order, and his Lightsaber skills were widely celebrated and renowned. Kolar favored the use of a Force Push in combat, and was known to apply it suddenly against his opponents. However, he was primarily known as a master Lightsaber duelist. Windu himself, considered one of the greatest duelists in the Order's history, found Kolar's abilities considerable. Their Jedi Council felt that Windu and Kolar alone would provide a significant counter to Darth Sidious were this Dark Sith-Lord to reveal himself. Despite their Jedi Council's expectations, however, Kolar was slain by Darth Sidious with a single blow. Kolar did not enjoy talents in Lightsaber combat alone, and he was also proficient in unarmed combat, as when he engaged an angry mob without a Lightsaber and without difficulty. Kolar integrated his physical combat into his battles with a Lightsaber, being especially fond of delivering high kicks to his foes, though he also favored that attack in a fully unarmed battles as well. In addition to Jedi Master Agen Kolar's fighting techniques, he was considered by many in the Jedi Order to be master swordsmith.
