Summary

	Jedi Master Jedi Master Miscellaneous Ranks Vodo-Siosk Baas was a venerable Krevaaki Krevaaki Sentient Species male who served the Jedi Order Jedi Order Organization Galaxy-Wide Organizations with distinction into the onset of the Old Sith Wars. A warrior, historian Historian Miscellaneous Roles , and expert lightsaber crafts being, Baas's was a life devoted to the training of Jedi Knights Jedi Knight Miscellaneous Ranks to combat agents of the dark side of the Force. A respected member of the Assembly of great Masters, Baas's time was divided between the Jedi epicenter on the world of Ossus Ossus Planet and his academy for exceptional apprentices on the planet Dantooine Dantooine Planet . Although several of his students achieved fame for their efforts against the Sith, it was while under Baas's tutelage that a young human named Exar Kun Exar Kun (Human) Character Major Characters developed a fanatical desire for knowledge forbidden by the Jedi, and abandoned his Master's wisdom in search thereof. By 3997 BBY, the influence of Sith magic had resurfaced and rapidly spread across the galaxy, headquartered in the Empress Teta system Empress Teta System Galaxy Systems and propagated by the Krath Krath Organization Planetary and Sector cult. Vodo-Siosk Baas answered the summons of all Jedi to convene on the planet Deneba and discuss strategy against the new Sith, but while en route he experienced the despair of his errant apprentice's fall to the dark side and became even more concerned with the future safety of the galaxy. The Jedi Convocation was assailed by the Krath, an attack that spurred Jedi Knight Ulic Qel-Droma Ulic Qel-Droma (Human) Character Supporting Characters into an infiltration mission of their ranks. Baas was among several Masters in meditation on Ossus who foresaw Qel-Droma's inevitable fall to the dark side, which culminated in his apprenticeship to the Dark Jedi Exar Kun, who had since become the Dark Lord of the Sith Dark Lord of the Sith Miscellaneous Ranks and had begun preparations for the restoration of a Sith Golden Age to the galaxy. With the Lords of the Sith Brotherhood Brotherhood of the Sith Organization Galaxy-Wide Organizations firmly enmeshed in total war against the Galactic Republic Galactic Republic Organization Galaxy-Wide Organizations , Vodo-Siosk Baas represented the Masters of the Order on a diplomatic venture to the Galactic Senate Republic Senate Organization Galactic Republic on Coruscant Coruscant Planet with a request for permission to handle what they considered to be an internal affair. He and his retinue of Jedi Knights subsequently participated in the successful defense of the galactic capital from the invading Krath and Mandalorian Mandalorian Organization Mandalorians armies, which were led by Ulic Qel-Droma. With the defeated warlord in custody and his forces repelled, Baas returned to Dantooine for a time, in contemplation of his hand in the return of the Sith. Although devastated, he became ever more determined to prevent the realization of Kun's campaign of galactic tyranny. Baas returned to Coruscant and met his former apprentice in the fully audienced Grand Convocation Chamber of the Senate Hall, with a final demand for Kun's renunciation of his chosen Sith path. Baas was forced into a duel with him, and was over-matched when the Dark Lord activated his lightsaber's unexpected second blade. With his own demise at hand, Baas promised to one day return and vanquish Kun, whose killing blow then committed the Krevaaki to the Force. In fulfillment of his dying prophecy, the ghost of Baas returned more than four thousand years later to assist the inaugural class of Master Luke Skywalker Luke Skywalker (Human) Character Major Characters 's Jedi Praxeum in the final defeat of Kun's own disembodied spirit.
